Chapter 193 Qiao Xi's World Collapsed

Qiao Xi lowered her head and unlocked her phone screen.

The system message prompts that there is a new email, as well as some missed calls and unread text messages.

Qiao Xi checked them one by one and found that the missed calls were mostly from friends, mixed with some sales calls.

The person she was looking for wasn't there.

I'm afraid not many people knew that there was a fire in the clinic late at night, as everyone has their own life.

She clicked on the email, thinking it might be another fraudulent email from a bank promoting loans or about winning a prize.

But.

One after another, high-definition and ambiguous photos appeared in front of her.

Huo Xingzhou and Xu Xingluo were kissing passionately in the corridor of Jinling Hotel.

They were so affectionate that they wanted to embed themselves into each other's bodies, as if their old love had rekindled.

Moonlight.

Night.

The man leaned against the pillar, his posture was wanton and seductive. Xu Xingluo hugged his waist, his expression seductive.

His clothes were in tatters.

She raised her head for a kiss.

They are truly a perfect match.

Qiao Xi held the phone tightly, her knuckles turning white and the veins on the back of her hand faintly showing. It turned out that the person he was entertaining tonight was Xu Xingluo, and he had indeed arrived at the Jinling Hotel.

The phone calls didn't go through all night.

Her mind was filled with images of them kissing, crowding out her rationality.

She was stunned for a long moment, as if all five senses were magnified.

Ding!

The lights in the emergency room went out.

The three words "rescuing" were all gone.

Qiao Xi turned off the screen of her mobile phone and looked towards the door of the emergency room.

The door of fate opened, and the doctor in a white coat looked sad. The medical staff who participated in the rescue bowed in front of her.

"Feel sorry."

"We did our best. Please accept our condolences."

A word of apology, a word of condolence. Every word was amplified in her ears, as if it was reverberated.

At that moment, I felt completely cold.

She felt as if the world was spinning and turning upside down.

The thin old lady was lying on the hospital bed, covered with a white cloth.

Qiao Xi didn't know how she walked over. She slowly lifted the white cloth and saw her grandmother's kind face.

It's as if he just fell asleep.

"Grandma? Don't scare me." She whispered.

"Grandma, stop joking with me..."

Qiao Xi's tears fell uncontrollably and her whole body was shaking.

The doctor knew her and consoled her, "Doctor Qiao, the dead cannot be resurrected. The old lady's body was originally..."

"no."

Qiao Xi shook her head. She grabbed the old lady's hand and looked at them stubbornly: "It's hot."

“It’s still hot.”

"Her body is still warm, how can you expect me to believe it!"

"She was clearly asleep, but she still wanted to eat the meat dumplings I bought. I was almost there... just a little bit..."

Qiao Xi looked at them with her almond-shaped eyes, wanting to get an affirmative answer.

They avoided her sight and dared not say anything more for fear of upsetting her.

Qiao Xi noticed their avoidance. She opened her mouth but could not say anything. It was as if her throat was filled with cement, making her voice hoarse and harsh.

For a moment, she felt as if tiny needles were piercing her brain, her heart, and her blood, trying to flow along her blood and penetrate every cell.

The pain wanted to kill her!

“Ahem…”

Qiao Xi covered her chest and coughed without warning.

She bent over from coughing and squatted in the corner. There were so many tears flowing out of her eyes so fast that all she could see were large, blurry blocks of color.

I can't find a foothold.

There was a cold and salty taste in her throat.

Chaotic and fragmented images were clamoring in her mind, and were crushed and discarded bit by bit by the gears of fate.

No one could cover her eyes at this time.

But she could see clearly.

See your own world.

It's collapsing bit by bit before my eyes.

Became a ruin.

Desolate, hopeless, and bleak.

In the barren land, the flower on the last vine withered.

“Ahem…”

She coughed so hard that her internal organs were displaced and her mouth was filled with the taste of blood.

What I see before my eyes is a clear black and white, my consciousness is disconnected and reconnected, reconnected and disconnected.

She was unwilling to accept it.

I was unwilling to just faint like this.

"Doctor Joe?"

"Dr. Joe, are you okay?"

"Doctor Qiao? Doctor Qiao fainted!"

This night was a chaotic one.

…

the next day.

The sky was foggy and a light rain was falling outside. The news of the fire in the clinic had already become a hot topic in the local news.

Some people condemned it, while others sympathized with it.

There are still people who are unaware.

Huo Xingzhou woke up in the senior ward of a private hospital. His face was pale and he felt broken after recovering from a serious illness. Zhou Yu and Lao Chen stayed with him in the ward all night and did not dare to leave.

He sat up with his arms propped up and threw back the quilt.

"Huo Er, are you awake? Are you feeling unwell? The doctor said the medicine will take some time to take effect. You have been feeling weak these past few days."

"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere else?"

Zhou Yu was very concerned about his health, fearing that he would have the adverse reactions the doctor mentioned.

Huo Xingzhou shook his head and asked in a cold voice: "Where is Xu Xingluo?"

Zhou Yu sarcastically said, "Go home and be a turtle. Every time she got into trouble, the Liu and Xu families would protect her. What happened last night was not leaked at all."

But if Tianyuan Group wants to survive in Haicheng, it needs to be on good terms with the Liu family.

"Terminate the cooperation with the Xu family. Do not sign any contracts that have not been signed this year. All projects involving Xu Xingluo will be stopped. Regardless of any losses."

His brows were lowered, and a cold air emanated from his body.

"Well, I'll notify all departments right away. By the way, I'll put some snares on the Xu family's business. This time, the people are really mean." Zhou Yu knew the limits very well. The Liu family was extremely powerful, but the Xu family was a new wealthy family.

Huo Xingzhou suddenly thought of the glass of wine last night and Huo Jiancheng's abnormal behavior recently.

He felt heavy-hearted and very unhappy.

"Please help me check what my father has been doing recently, whether he has any deal with Xu Guangyao, or if Xu Guangyao has any evidence against him. Don't tell anyone until everything is clear."

Huo Xingzhou's tone was grim.

Zhou Yu suddenly had a guess and looked at him in astonishment: "Could it be... I said you are always careful, how could you fall for Xu Xingluo's low-level trick? You are always defenseless against people close to you, how could your uncle..."

"Go check it out first. Remember to do it in secret."

Huo Xingzhou said expressionlessly.

He stood up, picked up his coat hanging nearby, and prepared to go out.

"By the way, don't tell Qiao Xi about what happened last night." He was afraid that she would think too much.

Zhou Yu said, "I know. Where are you going? I will be the one running the company for now, you can take a rest for a few days."

"I'm going to find Qiao Xi. Give me the phone." Huo Xingzhou stretched out his hand to Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu put the phone with a black screen in his hand and said.

"I sent a text message to Qiao Xi as you instructed last night, and then I kept getting calls from strange numbers. I thought your private number was leaked to a sales agency, so I turned it off."

"Um."

Huo Xingzhou responded and walked out.

The driver, Lao Chen, was waiting in the corridor. He saw Huo Xingzhou seemed to be hesitant to speak.
