She reached out again to take the grapes.
However, her mother was faster; she picked up her target and ate it.
Before long, the fruit plate was empty.
She moved her lips, as if she wanted to eat more.
Ms. Qiao put the fruit plate back on the coffee table, then took a candy from the jar and handed it to her: "Have this."
Even without grapes, vanilla candy is pretty good too. At this moment, I feel very satisfied.
Ms. Qiao is probably the second woman in the world to treat her so well.
The first one, of course, is the Soviet Union and the United States.
However, she hoped this happiness would last a little longer.
Tang Yaoyao blinked, made small talk with her, and asked with a smile, "Ms. Qiao, where will you sleep tonight?"
"Besides the sofa, I don't think I have any other choice, do I?"
This is a pitfall her son set for her; she has no choice but to fill it, she can't just leave.
Tang Yaoyao smiled radiantly, her lips curving lazily. The paleness on her cheeks seemed to have faded somewhat, replaced by a touch of rosiness. She said softly, "Then you've really had a hard time."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Gu Mobei came in.
He was holding a medicine in his hand and came over to give her an IV drip. When he saw Ms. Qiao, his expression was unusually gentle: "Auntie."
He and the fourth brother had been inseparable since childhood, so he had a good relationship with her. He greeted her, "Mobei, it's been a while since I've seen you. Are you dating anyone?"
He lowered his eyes, but only for a moment before raising his head again and gently shaking his head: "Too busy, no time."
Qiao Yanzhi smiled and said, "You young people of this generation all have your own ideas. You go ahead and do your work, I won't disturb you."
"Um."
Tang Yaoyao noticed a fleeting but clear dimness in his eyes when he looked at Ms. Qiao.
What's going on?
In his gaze, Gu Mobei came to her bedside, took her hand, and spoke to her with a completely different feeling from that of Ms. Qiao, indifferent and cold: "After this bottle is finished, there will be another bottle at midnight, and you can have it administered at midnight."
Tang Yaoyao nodded: "I understand."
He took her hand to insert the needle into her vein, but she closed her eyes, turned the needle to the side, and whispered in a voice only he could hear, "Ms. Qiao thought I was Brother Chen's girlfriend and came to take care of me. Please ask Dr. Gu not to let it slip."
He didn't speak, focusing on his work.
Feeling uneasy, Tang Yaoyao added, "Don't tell her that I'm actually Xiao Jinhan's girlfriend. She has a heart condition, and if she finds out, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Suddenly, he stood up straight, looked down at her, his gaze indifferent.
Then, with a faint smile, he parted his lips and spoke in a loud voice, seemingly not in the mood to speak softly to her. This attitude seemed very unfriendly: "I'm not a gossip."
Tang Yaoyao: "..."
wipe?
This guy just said it outright, doesn't that mean Ms. Qiao knows she was whispering to him?
She reminded him because he had been very direct yesterday about her fourth brother giving blood to Ye Junlin, which prompted her to say something.
However, judging from his attitude, he really has no interest in the Fu family's affairs at all.
Qiao Yanzhi narrowed her eyes, as if scrutinizing her and considering what she had just said that would prompt Gu Mobei to say such a thing.
After Gu Mobei finished, he came to Qiao Yanzhi's side and said, "Auntie, come sleep in my office tonight. Leave this to me. You've been taking care of everything day and night. Miss Tang is better, but you've gotten sick again from exhaustion. Jin Han must be blaming me."
Qiao Yanzhi smiled gently and said, "She is my daughter-in-law. If I hand her over to you tonight, Chen'er will blame me."
