She bared her fangs and brandished her claws to protect him
At first, Zhao Qian thought that the private investigators wouldn’t be able to find out who reported them under an anonymous name, but in the end, the name he heard was Rong Chengmo’s backer.
Unexpectedly, and also unexpectedly.
Xiao Yan didn’t have much to say about this matter. He was probably really tired. At the moment, he had spent all of his shrewdness and concentration on Qiao Mo and thought too much about his wife and children. He simply couldn’t be bothered to care about this Rong Chengmo.
All of Rong Chengmo’s provocations were like a clown, which Xiao Yan was simply unwilling to pay attention to.
On one hand, Rong Chengmo’s actions were to defeat the Xiao’s. On the other hand, it was to attract Xiao Yan’s attention, enrage him, and force him to fight with Xiao Yan head on.
But right now, Xiao Yan didn’t have the energy or time, nor the spare effort to do so.
Xiao’s was not afraid of such rumors.
Qiao Mo was sick with a high fever.
The family doctor came over and said it was because he was insane and scared. Besides, he was too nervous.
Qiao Mo lied on the bed, blearily saying “I’m sorry” to someone.
She was unconscious and unconscious. She kept saying “I’m sorry.” Hot tears fell from the corners of her eyes and her hair turned cold.
Xiao Yan went closer and picked her up. She leaned into his embrace and he kissed her burning forehead, “Idiot, you didn’t let anyone down.”
He lowered his head and kissed the tears in her hair. He murmured in a low voice, “What are you crying for, I’m here.”
Qiao Mo was a little confused. Because shshewas pregnant, the doctor recommended not to go to the hospital to hang water, adding that the rumors outside were too much, if she went out, he might get caught, and she might get provoked even more.
Xiao Yan helped her up, coaxing her: “Good girl, get up and take your medicine. After you finish eating the medicine, you’ll be fine tomorrow. ”
She was truly confused. She had completely forgotten about the conflict and entanglement between the two of them. With a fragile white face, she frowned and subconsciously flirted with him. “Can you not eat?”
She really didn’t like going to the hospital, nor did she like taking medicine. The smell of the capsule made her feel nauseous from pregnancy.
Xiao Yan softened his tone. There was nothing he could do but to coax, “Do as I say.”
“No!”
She swiftly tucked under the covers and pulled the covers over her head.
He looked at her childish action and was stunned for a moment. He could not help but shake his head and laugh. After a moment, he reached out his hand to pull her away.
Perhaps it was because he was too doted on, he couldn’t even find such a person he loved in the vast wastelands of the universe.
He smiled as he tried to coax her, saying gently, “If you don’t eat, you won’t eat. Be good and come out quickly. Your nose is already blocked and you will feel bored to death. “Be good, huh?”
“Really?”
Her muffled voice came from under the quilt.
“Really.”
he promised.
She stretched out her head and took a long breath.
Then, suddenly, her hands were bound by him, and his hands were clasped at the back of her head, and his lips were pressed against hers, and she thought he was going to kiss her, and she was going to say, I’m sick. Suddenly, he felt a bitter taste in his mouth before he was fooled.
He actually fed her medicine in such a way. She struggled as she moaned without making a sound, and as she swallowed, she swallowed the pills as well. He released her and brought the water to her mouth.
She finished the entire cup of water in a huff and said, “More!”
He felt that the pill was stuck in his throat and was becoming more and more uncomfortable. Only after swallowing a lot of water did he feel comfortable.
However, he was still angry, so he hid under the blanket and covered his head. Yet, he was still crying.
This was not the first time Qiao Mo got sick, nor was it the first time Xiao Yan tricked her into taking the medicine. Previously, she had a high fever and did not want to take the medicine, so he also used this kind of method to trick her into taking the medicine.
These memories were like gentle and gentle water that slowly flowed through his heart, bringing back countless beautiful memories.
However, the more beautiful the memories were, the more cruel and gloomy would be the days of separation.
Xiao Yan’s appearance in Qiao Mo’s ordinary life became the brightest and most beautiful scenery in her life, but Qiao Mo did not know that in Xiao Yan’s thirty odd life, she had been the only accident, and the only beauty in his life.
“Ah Yan.” Covered in the quilt, she called to him in a low, childish voice.
Xiao Yan reached out his hand, wanting to pull away her blanket. Qiao Mo was on guard, and tightly gripped her blanket tightly. Her voice, carried a hint of sobbing.
So he let her, still hiding in the quilt, talk to him.
“I’m here.”
Qiao Mo extended out a hand and tightly held it with Xiao Yan’s hand. As usual, all ten fingers were interlocked together.
This moment of gentleness and affability was like a struggle within the final hissing. They were like two wounded beasts, hiding in the darkness, hugging each other, tacit understanding not to talk about the unhappy thing.
However, it didn’t mean that it didn’t exist.
… ….
The world outside was turning upside down, yet Qiao Mo was actually lying on her bed for three whole days. His condition had not improved, and the family doctor had come over to see his condition, but still told Xiao Yan, his heart was beating unusually fast, and maybe even his mind was having problems.
As long as it was a person, and even if it was a little woman, after this string of consecutive blows, it would be quite good if she didn’t fall down.
Qiao Mo did not want to take anymore medicine. She did not take the medicine because she was afraid that the medicine would not be good for the child, and also because she did not want to make herself better.
The world was so vast. If she were to be separated from him, where would she go and who would she be together with?
All her warmth had been given to him, and she would no longer have the energy to smile at others.
At night, when she was sleeping, she suddenly called out to him with a bitter face.
She opened her big, wet eyes and mysteriously whispered into his ear, “I heard that when you catch a cold, put your feet on your lover’s belly for the whole night and it’ll be fine very quickly!”
They had used this method before. During their travels in Yunnan, they had used it when Qiao Mo had a plateau reaction.
Xiao Yan was slightly startled. They seemed to be reminiscing about the past together as his gaze soft stared at her.
Qiao Mo started talking lower and lower, her face reddening as well. She buried her face in his chest, no longer daring to look up at him.
He got up, moved, adjusted his body, then held her feet and placed them on his abdomen. He laughed out loud and asked, “So?”
Qiao Mo didn’t think that he would actually do this again, it was just a joke on purpose. Thinking about that night at the mountain in Yunnan, she placed her ice-cold feet on his stomach, for an entire night.
Qiao Mo’s face turned completely red, like a cooked shrimp.
“Hey!”
She quickly sat up and said, “Hurry up and let go, I was just joking.”
Xiao Yan leaned over, still holding onto her leg, and kissed her ear: “Go to sleep.”
How could she still sleep? She wanted to retract her foot, but he held her back.
“Ah Yan…”
“Be good, if you move again …”
She didn’t dare to move again as Qiao Mo turned her face to the side and stared at his handsome face lovingly.
His gaze never blinked.
Xiao Yan also turned his head to look at her, and laughed lightly: “From the looks of it, aren’t your eyes tired?”
Qiao Mo shook her head lightly, “I really hope that I’ll always be this sick. If I’m this sick forever, perhaps you’ll always take care of me this way.”
Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and reprimanded softly: “Who dares to curse themselves to be forever ill?”
Qiao Mo sniffed and bit her lips: “If I could be together with you, even if I am forever sickly, so what …?”
Before she could finish her words, Xiao Yan had blocked her lips.
He kissed her firmly. After a long kiss, his eyes reddened and he warned her seriously, “Don’t curse yourself again.”
— He wanted her to be healthy, to have no worries for the rest of her life.
Qiao Mo blinked her eyes.
She hugged his neck and slept through the night.
… ….
When she woke up the next morning, she found that her feet were still in that position on his belly. He actually …
If your nose isn’t blocked, why are you still having trouble breathing?
She crawled to the place where he slept, stretched out her hand, and gently drew the lines of his sleeping face. She copied them bit by bit, as if she wanted to carve him in the deepest place in her mind.
Actually, when he faced outsiders, he rarely smiled. Even if he did laugh, it was still exceptionally cold. However, when he faced her, his smile was always warm and gentle as it lingered in the depths of his eyes.
As sensitive as Qiao Mo, she could feel it.
At this moment, he was sleeping soundly. Perhaps it was because he was too tired from dealing with those things recently. His brows were filled with gentleness, and he let go of all his defenses. It was this gentleness.
But tomorrow, or later, when he wakes up, this warmth that only belongs to her will never belong to her again.
… ….
After finishing breakfast, Xiao Yan reached out a hand towards her forehead. So this method is not useless. ”
Qiao Mo didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so she took his hand and said: “Do you want to go to court with me? I’ll testify for you. ”
Qiao Mo had casually said those words before, as if the two of them were just discussing whether the weather was good today.
Xiao Yan’s voice wasn’t clear, it was only an indifferent “Okay”. Taking her small hand, the two of them went out of the room together.
Zhao Qian sent people to stop the reporters outside. On the way, it was alright since nothing happened.
At the door of the courthouse, he was fairly calm.
It was just that Qiao Mo suddenly stood at the door and stopped moving.
Xiao Yan didn’t rebuke her at all, and turned his head to look at her, his voice hoarse. “Xiao Mo, if you regret it now, or if you don’t like it, don’t go, I won’t force you. You don’t owe me anything, and you don’t need to help me with my perjury. ”
Qiao Mo shook her head in the end, lips curving as she said, “Just treat it as me repaying you. If I can still have a bit of happiness after losing dad, it should all be because of you, right? ”
Xiao Yan was speechless, this fool, he was the one who gave her happiness, but her suffering and the storm he had caused were also his.
Qiao Mo walked forward and stood on the stairs for a long time.
His wife walked to the front, turned around and suddenly happily called out to him, “Hubby, hurry up!” If we miss the time, that would be bad. ”
She didn’t even cry. It seemed as if everything was really fine.
But, what was that deep despair in Qiao Mo’s eyes?
This, was probably the last sign of gentleness.
… ….
The court was silent, Qiao Mo stood on the witness stand.
The case could actually be considered as successful. The Xiao’s’s foundation in the market was completely unshakable, and Qiao Mo was even more so calm and collected, trying her best to provide him with all the evidence.
After it was over, Xiao Yan did not go over to hold her hand; he should be the one who had the least qualifications to hold hers.
He walked all the way to the door of the court, and the reporters swarmed over from nowhere.
Qiao Mo approached him, walked to his side, held his large hands with her small hands and gave him a sweet smile, as if she didn’t feel the slightest bit of sadness.
“Mrs. Xiao, may I ask if you still believe in Mr. Xiao? He may be the one who killed your parents and killed your family! ”
“Mrs. Xiao, are you still going to continue this marriage?”
“Mr. Xiao, may I ask if the reason why you killed Lady Lu was because you were afraid that she would take revenge on Xiao’s?”
… ….
And so on and so forth.
Qiao Mo suddenly opened her mouth and said calmly: “If you keep going on like this, I might really sue you for slander. My husband can’t have anything to do with it. If you continue to slander me, Xiao’s will send a letter to all the newspapers present to sue you for slander. ”
Xiao Yan looked at his wife, but this was the first time he saw her baring her fangs and brandishing her claws at him.
She was protecting him.
How good.
But perhaps soon she was no longer his wife.
This warmth, this softness, was eternal and no longer belonged to him.
