Side Story - Modern World 2



After waking up, Xu Qiaoqiao faces the same challenge as Jun Qi: to quickly recover her physical condition. Having been in bed for so long, she needs to pay attention to all aspects of her health.

That day, after Xu Qiaoqiao was able to walk about 1.5 meters on her own, she returned to her ward to rest. The nurse told her that someone had come to see her.

Has someone come to see her?

Xu Qiaoqiao was surprised.

If it were my parents, they would have come directly; why would they have sent a nurse first? As for friends, probably none of them would have come.

So... who could it be?

A month has passed since she woke up. Xu Qiaoqiao has been staying obediently in the hospital, although she is very eager to know where Jun Qi is.

But so far, there are no clues. Later, she also asked the doctors, since she had a helmet-like thing on her head, how could they not notice?

Based on her previous conversations with Junjun and the so-called System Jun, Xu Qiaoqiao could roughly guess that Jun Qi must have played an important role in her ability to wake up.

The door creaked open, and a woman in a black dress with a powerful aura walked in with a child.

After the woman walked in, she lightly snapped her fingers behind her.

Then Xu Qiaoqiao saw a man in a black suit walk in carrying large and small bags, his smile revealing helplessness and doting.

"Couldn't we just have the driver or bodyguard come and get these things?"

The man was handsome, dressed in a well-tailored black suit, with gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. He was tall and slender, with a faint smile on his face that made people feel at ease.

When he noticed Xu Qiaoqiao's curious gaze, he simply nodded slightly and smiled gently.

"Gifts are more sincere when the recipient receives them in person," the alluring woman uttered softly, her voice melodious and graceful.

And if nothing unexpected happens, this young lady will be your future sister-in-law. It's always better to receive a family gift in person.

Besides, it was your younger brother who told you this.

After placing the items on a table to the side, the man walked over to the woman and naturally put his arm around her waist.

"Who are you...?" Xu Qiaoqiao looked at the person and looked confused. The sunglasses on her face covered most of her face, revealing only red lips and a perfect jawline.

She was certain she had never seen these three people before.

"Let me introduce myself, Xia Xi. The one who came in carrying things just now is my husband, Jun Gan. This is my son, Jun Xiaobei. You may not know him, but no matter what, he's the one who caused your fall into the water."

Xia Xi patted her son's head with one hand and took off her sunglasses with the other, looking confident and smug.

Looking at the girl sitting on the bed, her face was pale, revealing a sense of fragility, as if a gust of wind could blow her away.

The baby fat on her face had faded, revealing a sharp, thin chin. Her large eyes held a look of confusion and doubt, making her appear delicate and adorable.

Girls like this are the most likable.

Upon seeing this, Xia Xi's lips curved into a slight smile; her brother-in-law had good taste.

After saying that, Xia Xi patted Jun Xiaobei's head: "Go, thank your sister and apologize to her."

In Xia Xi's view, although Xu Qiaoqiao did not succeed in rescuing her son in the end, at least when he was still in the water, Xu Qiaoqiao did her best to lift him to the surface. It's just that who knows what happened afterward and he sank again.

To put it simply, this girl jumped into the water out of kindness; at the time, she was the only one who dared to save people.

Xia Xi and Jun Gan are also benefactors who regard Xu Qiaoqiao as their own son.

Your surname is Jun?

This surname immediately made Xu Qiaoqiao sensitive. She looked at the family of three, and finally her gaze settled on the little boy who was slowly walking towards her.

"Sister, I'm sorry, and thank you."

Jun Xiaobei's face was flushed, and he looked very embarrassed. He spoke very seriously to Xu Qiaoqiao, and after he finished speaking, he bowed solemnly to her.

"Are you the little boy who fell into the water?" Xu Qiaoqiao remembered now, after listening to the words of the woman named Xia Xi and the little boy.

Jun Xiaobei nodded shyly, "It's me."

"Mom said that my sister got injured because she went into the water to save Xiao Bei. She has been sleeping and lying in bed, just like my uncle. So Xiao Bei should apologize properly."

At this point, Jun Xiaobei's eyes showed some sadness. He didn't understand why his best friend would take him to play by the water.

My mother said it was jealousy.

But he really didn't understand what jealousy was.

Why does jealousy exist between friends?

Xu Qiaoqiao smiled slightly. She raised her arm with difficulty and touched the child's head. Her fingers were much more nimble now.

"No need to thank me, and besides, I wasn't really able to help." When she talked about this, Xu Qiaoqiao's face showed a slight blush. Not only was she not able to help, but she also got herself involved.

"Miss Xu, please don't say that. Although you didn't manage to bring Xiao Bei ashore, your courage in stepping forward at that time was truly admirable."

Jun Gan pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses perched on his nose, his voice gentle.

A charming smile bloomed on Xia Xi's lips. She was dazzlingly beautiful, like a delicate and vibrant rose.

"Yes, Miss Xu, we've seen the video from that time. Among the crowd of onlookers, you were the only one who stepped forward. There aren't many young ladies like you who are beautiful and kind-hearted these days."
