A nurse hurriedly followed Shen Mubei. âMr. Shen, right? I met a patient called Xiao Qing just now. She asked me to pass this to you.â
âShe was standing there just now. Sheâs gone now.â The nurse pointed in that direction.
Shen Mubei looked at the empty place, and his heart felt empty. He held the brocade box tightly.
The box contained the necklace he had chosen. It was a wedding gift for her.
She said that she wanted Qiao Weiyang to design the wedding ring and wedding dress, so he had no time to work on the two most important things. He could only buy this necklace for her.
However⌠she did not want to marry him. Even with the child, she didnât like the idea of it.
When Qiao Weiyang and Su Zhuoqian drove to the hospital, it had already started to rain.
They had just parked her car when they saw Xiao Qing running out in the rain toward her own car.
âIâll go over and take a look,â Qiao Weiyang said. Seeing the worry on Su Zhuoqianâs face, she said, âIâll settle Xiao Qingâs matter. Itâs inconvenient with you around. Trust me.â
Su Zhuoqian let go and opened the car door for her.
Qiao Weiyang rushed over with an umbrella and knocked on Xiao Qingâs car door.
When Xiao Qing saw that it was Qiao Weiyang, she opened the car lock.
Qiao Weiyang got into the car and said angrily, âXiao Qing, look at yourself. Do you know what kind of situation youâre in? Why did you run to your car in the rain?â
âWeiyangâŚâ Xiao Qingâs voice was hoarse. âIâm just too uncomfortable.â
âNo matter how uncomfortable you are, you canât joke around when it comes to your health.â Qiao Weiyang found a towel and wrapped it around her head. She wiped the rain off her head somewhat aggressively. In the end, Qiao Weiyang still turned gentle. âXiao Qing, no matter what, donât hurt yourself.â
âShen Mubei came over,â Xiao Qing said nasally. âHe came to see Zhao Xinshuâs mother. She got into a car accident. Then, he came to see me and found out that I had aborted the child. He didnât ask me why and immediately reprimanded me.â
Qiao Weiyang now understood why Xiao Qing had broken down.
She loved Shen Mubei too much. She loved him to the bone, but because she did not get all his love, she found it hard to accept. Coupled with her strong sense of morality, her pain was obviously stronger than others.
Qiao Weiyang slowly wiped her hair. She knew that what Xiao Qing needed at this moment was not admonishment, but a confession from Shen Mubei.
âI also think that this is quite good. We donât have a child anymore, so we donât have to be tied to each other like this. He can return to Zhao Xinshuâs side and be with her. I donât have to be condemned by my conscience, and I donât have to be forced to get what I canât get for this child.â
âWell, thatâs good. Donât be too sad.â Qiao Weiyang could only go along with her words.
However, how could she not know how much Xiao Qing could not bear to part with Shen Mubei? She had loved him for so long. How could she let it go so easily?
To let go of him in such a painful way was undoubtedly to cut away all her past memories and all the feelings she had given him.
Qiao Weiyang could understand Xiao Qingâs feelings and her pain.
However, the price Xiao Qing had to pay was too painful.
âI want to go for a ride,â Xiao Qing said.
âOkay, Iâll accompany you.â Qiao Weiyang didnât refuse.
Xiao Qing drove the car out.
The rain got heavier and heavier, and the visibility on the road was not high. However, Qiao Weiyang did not say anything. If Xiao Qing did not vent out the frustrations in her heart, she was afraid that something would happen to Xiao Qing.
At most, she would risk her life to accompany her.
Xiao Qingâs car was getting faster and faster. Fortunately, Qiao Weiyang would occasionally help her stabilize the car and even remind her to avoid other cars on the road.
The car drove all the way to the suburbs.
Xiao Qing was exhausted. Her hands were trembling as she held the steering wheel.
âQing Qing, let me do it. This isnât good for you and others,â Qiao Weiyang said in a low voice.
Xiao Qing looked at her weakly and switched places with her.
After Qiao Weiyang took control of the steering wheel, it was obvious that the car was driving much more steadily. The rain and wind were strong, but she finally parked the car successfully in Xiao Qingâs neighborhood.
âDo you want to go on another ride?â Qiao Weiyang asked.
Xiao Qing slowly recovered from her hysteria and said apologetically, âNo.â
âDo you want to go home? If you donât want to, Iâll drive you to my apartment. Itâs been redecorated and is livable.â
Xiao Qing forced a smile. âI wonât go over for the time being. I have to face all of this. Weiyang, Iâll go back and have a good talk with my mother. Itâs better for her to hear this from me than from other people.â
âOkay. Then you go up. Give me a call after youâre done talking.â Qiao Weiyang took the umbrella and sent her through the buildingâs door, watching her go upstairs.
Rain pattered on the umbrella.
Qiao Weiyang felt that the rain above her had lessened. She looked up and saw Su Zhuoqian standing beside her. Her thoughts were on Xiao Qing just now, and she did not notice Su Zhuoqian coming over.
She had not contacted him in the process, and now that he was standing here, it could only mean one thing. He had been following her and Xiao Qing just now.
An indescribable feeling of gratitude and guilt filled Qiao Weiyangâs eyes. âItâs raining so heavily. Why didnât you stay in the hospital and wait for me?â
âI was worried about you,â Su Zhuoqian said softly. He took her umbrella and put it away. Then, they got under the umbrella in his hand together and entered the car.
Qiao Weiyangâs eyes were a little moist. He was worried about her, but he did not rush her, nor did he call her to say anything else to her. He just followed her silently.
She could clearly feel his respect and love for her.
Qiao Weiyang pounced over, grabbed his tie, and bit his Adamâs apple.
Su Zhuoqian hugged her waist and felt the beauty of the moment.
About an hour later, Xiao Qing called. âWeiyang, Iâve already told my mother. Thank you for today. Rest early.â
Qiao Weiyang could tell that she had spent a lot of effort communicating with Mrs. Xiao. She should be very tired now.
âYou should rest early too. Donât think about the past anymore,â Qiao Weiyang comforted her softly.
After returning to Zhuojing Villa with Su Zhuoqian, Qiao Weiyangâs fatigue gradually washed away.
The next day, Song Hanzhi called her.
âIâve already checked Xiao Qingâs embryo. It should indeed be a miscarriage caused by congenital deficiency. Thereâs actually no point in keeping such an embryo. Fortunately, Xiao Qing and Shen Mubei donât have any other genetic problems. It wonât be a problem for them to have children in the future. This time, thereâs a high chance that itâs as you saidâthe root cause was because they had the child while drunk.â
