Chapter 29 Don’t be angry, I’ll take you to Canada
"Xiaoge, don't go..."
Qiao Xuan's voice was weak, and if it wasn't so quiet at night, Qu Ge might not have been able to hear what he said at all.
She thought he was awake, but when she turned around she saw that his eyes were closed and his brows were furrowed, as if he had had a nightmare.
Baichuan didn't lie to her, Qiao Xuan did keep calling her name.
"Xiaoge, I beg you..."
"Don't leave me..."
Qiao Xuan was clearly unconscious, but he still held Qu Ge's hand tightly and wouldn't let her leave.
Qu Ge sighed and could only sit down beside him.
Listening to the unclear words coming out of his mouth, she was not moved at all, but felt disgusted.
Since he loves Qiao Wanwan so much, what does it matter if he makes such a fuss now?
After playing the role of a love-struck boyfriend for three years, he ended up tricking himself?
Not long after, Zhou Yingrui arrived with a medicine box.
She was woken up from her dream by Shirakawa's continuous phone calls, and was yawning when she walked in.
Seeing Qiao Xuan's condition, she calmly took out the thermometer.
Seeing that she seemed to be used to this, Qu Ge couldn't help but wonder, "Does Chairman Qiao often beat Qiao Xu'an?"
"It was like this when I was little, but it got better as I grew older. I was still in school then, and my grandfather worked for the Qiao family. I remember he was always called in the middle of the night to treat Qiao Xu'an's injuries."
In front of Qu Ge, Zhou Yingrui was not shy and told her everything.
In her opinion, Qu Ge should be the closest person to Qiao Xuan.
After all, she is the mother of his child, and they will be a family in the future, so there is nothing to hide.
Zhou Yingrui thought so and directly pulled off Qiao Xuan's shirt in front of Qu Ge.
Take off your clothes.
Qu Ge's brows suddenly furrowed.
Qiao Xian was originally wearing a black shirt today.
Just now, she didn't see anything unusual about him except that he looked unhappy.
But now, without the shirt to cover it, the large, mottled bruises on his body were clearly visible to Qu Ge.
Like the scars left by being hit with a blunt object.
His supposedly fair skin looked like a canvas splattered with paint, and every irregular scar revealed the brutal abuse he had just endured.
Qu Ge didn't expect Qiao Jingren to be so cruel to him.
After all, this was the child he raised with his own hands, how could he bear to...
But then I thought, Liu Yuan had been with Qiao Jingren for so many years, but she was still thrown away just like that.
When it comes to love, the indifference of the father and son of the Qiao family is really consistent.
The most serious injury on Qiao Xuan's body was the bruise on his lower abdomen.
Every time he breathed and moved his muscles, the wound twitched, as if invisible maggots were crawling in his skin.
Zhou Yingrui's face was solemn: "I have to make an incision and squeeze out the blood clots. Please help me."
"I?"
Qu Ge was stunned. She didn't even know the most basic medical knowledge and had no idea how to help.
But before she could refuse, Zhou Yingrui took out a sharp scalpel and neatly cut open Qiao Xuan's skin.
She squeezed out the blood clots skillfully, then reached out to Qu Ge: "Give me the iodine."
"oh……"
Qu Ge quickly did as he was told.
Following Zhou Yingrui's instructions, she handed over several things one after another.
In just a few minutes, the wound was properly bandaged.
"Almost. Once his fever goes away, he should be fine."
Zhou Yingrui took off her gloves and looked at her "work" with satisfaction.
Hearing her words, Qu Ge felt a little disappointed.
She had to admit that there was an evil voice deep in her heart that kept clamoring to make Qiao Xian suffer more.
In fact, just now, for a moment, she even thought about taking advantage of his unconsciousness and directly stabbing the sharp scalpel into his heart...
But letting him die in his sleep without any pain seemed a bit too easy for him.
Qiao Wanwan is still alive.
Even if Qiao Xu'an has to die, he must first watch the person he loves most die before him.
Just like that year, Qu Ge watched Qu Shunzhi fall in a pool of blood and died...
After leaving a few boxes of medicine, Bai Chuan saw Zhou Yingrui off.
Qiao Xuan gradually felt better, at least his face was no longer wrinkled like before.
But he still held Qu Ge's wrist tightly and refused to let go.
The temperature of his palm was very hot, like a ball of fire, burning her painfully.
Looking at the wounds on Qiao Xuan's body, Qu Ge suddenly remembered the time when they were together.
He usually likes to wear white shirts, but occasionally changes to black.
Whenever he wore black, he didn't like Qu Ge to get close to him, and even a hug would make him frown.
At that time, Qu Ge always thought that he was in a bad mood.
Now that I think about it…
It turned out that the all-encompassing black was a trick he used to cover up wounds and bloodstains.
"Xiaoge, don't be angry, I'll take you to Canada..."
In his ears, Qiao Xuan'an's voice interrupted Qu Ge's drifting thoughts.
She looked down at him.
The person is still talking in his sleep while he is still asleep.
People with high fevers often have many chaotic dreams.
But why is she always in his dreams?
Qu Ge felt unlucky.
She frowned and tried to pull her hand away from his again.
Qiao Xian felt her struggle in her sleep and held her tightly with tension.
"Don't go! Please..."
"Don't leave me, don't give up our child..."
Qu Ge became more and more suspicious that Qiao Xuan had woken up a long time ago and was just pretending to be asleep.
How could a sleeping person have so much strength?
She was upset and responded coldly to his nonsense: "People like you don't deserve to have children."
“…”
Qiao Xuan didn't react much and seemed to be really asleep.
“Hiss——”
Qu Ge's cell phone vibrated at the bedside.
It was so late, no one would look for her except Rong Zhoubai and junk ads.
"The formalities are almost complete, you can leave anytime."
When Qu Ge saw this line of words, his brows suddenly relaxed.
This was probably the best news she had received in a while.
Right now, the relationship between Qiao Jingren and Qiao Xuan has become strained due to the Yunyao Island project.
After losing Yunyao Island, Qiao’s stock price will fall again, and the board of directors will definitely take action against Qiao’s father and son tomorrow.
At that time, Qiao Jingren could only hand Qiao Xuan over and explain to others.
Without Qiao Xuan'an's help, Qiao Jingren was unable to handle the situation alone.
Qin Shuzhi had long since joined forces with several other families, eyeing the situation covetously, just waiting for the internal turmoil in the Qiao board of directors to take advantage of the situation and reap the benefits.
When the elephant of the Qiao family is eaten up by those little ants, it will be the best time for Qu Ge to overturn the verdict on Qu Shunzhi!
…
Qu Ge stayed up all night and fell asleep in a daze on the edge of the bed.
When she woke up again, Qiao Xuan's dark eyes were staring at her intently.
She was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.
She glared at him angrily: "When did you wake up?"
"Just woke up." Qiao Xu'an looked down at the bandaged wound on his body, "Thank you for taking care of me last night."
"It's not me, it's Zhou Yingrui."
Qu Ge stood up and stretched his numb limbs, not really wanting to pay attention to him.
Seeing that she was deliberately avoiding his gaze, Qiao Xuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
When he woke up, he saw that she had been guarding him all the time.
She clearly cared about him, but she was being stubborn and refused to admit it.
Qiao Xuan was in a good mood, and his stern features softened a little.
Qu Ge was too lazy to explain to him and went to the living room to get some water.
Li Siqi was still sleeping soundly in another room.
I tossed and turned all night last night but failed to wake her up.
Thinking of how she had promised to protect her two days ago, Qu Ge sighed helplessly.
“Knock knock knock—”
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door again.
You don't have to guess to know that he must be here to find Qiao Xuan.
Qu Ge frowned, really annoyed.
She went to open the door with a glass of water.
But she never expected that the person standing outside the door...
It turned out to be Qiao Jingren!
This was the first time Qu Ge saw Qiao Jingren in person.
His photos had been on the headlines of financial news countless times, so she naturally recognized him.
The man in front of him was as tall as a pine tree, wearing a well-tailored handmade suit that was worth a fortune. The few strands of silver on his temples added a bit of inhuman majesty to him.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his tone was one of command that left no room for questioning.
"Let Qiao Xuan come out to see me."
"What brings you here?"
Before Qu Ge could answer, Qiao Xuan heard the noise and came out of the house.
He vigilantly protected her behind him and calmly met Qiao Jingren's sharp gaze.
Qiao Jingren glanced behind him contemptuously.
"I told you to go back and think carefully about how you were going to explain today to the board of directors. And now you're off to this den of frivolity, enjoying yourself?"
"Chairman Qiao! Please speak with some respect!"
Qu Ge naturally understood what the three words "Xiaojinwo" meant.
This is the home where she grew up, and she will never allow others to insult it at will!
But her anger was just a cheap joke in Qiao Jingren's eyes.
Qiao Jingren sneered and didn't even bother to look at her.
"Who do you think you are to talk to me about respect?"
"you!……"
Qu Ge frowned and was about to speak, but was stopped by Qiao Xuan.
He held her hand and signaled her not to be impulsive.
He spoke first: "Dad, this is not the place to talk. Let's go to the company first and talk."
“Bang!”
Before Qiao Xuan could finish his words, he was slapped hard in the face.
Qiao Jingren's face was gloomy: "I need you to teach me how to do things?"
Qiao Xuan was already seriously injured last night, and now he was beaten again. He almost couldn't stand. Fortunately, Qu Ge supported him from behind.
It was the time in the morning when everyone was anxious to go out to work.
Qiao Jingren and the two bodyguards behind him blocked the narrow corridor tightly, which soon aroused the dissatisfaction of the neighbors.
Qu Ge's face grew increasingly grim, but he could only patiently reason with him, "Chairman Qiao, if you have anything to say, can you please go downstairs and talk? Don't disturb others. If you keep blocking my door like this, I'll have to call the police!"
When he heard the word "call the police", Qiao Jingren frowned and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
Only then did he take a serious look at Qu Ge.
Finally, his gaze fell on her lower abdomen.
"Miss Qu, right? I heard you're pregnant? Is it Qiao Xu'an's child?"
The plain tone made Qiao Xuan's nerves tense instantly.
He frowned, and the murderous intent could no longer be hidden in his deep, dark eyes!
