In the afternoon, Xia Ning put Enoch to sleep and was about to go downstairs. She happened to hear Gao Wanhua talking with Qiao Yu.
“I feel that Xia Ning seemed to be in low spirits. In the morning…” Gao Wanhua said subtly.
“Mom, she was just too worried about Enoch.”
I mean you’d better take your time to tell her the child’s condition. I can see that she loves Enoch very much. Recently, I got to know about her childhood experience. She has experienced untold suffering. If you bully her any more, I won’t forgive you.”
“I’ll stay with her.”
Xia Ning turned to walk towards the bathroom. Yes, even Mrs. Qiao felt that she was mentally ill. Haha!
After she tidied herself and went out of the bathroom, she happened to meet Qiao Yu who was going upstairs.
“I did not ask before whether Enoch was in poor health. Why does he always fall ill?” Xia Ning asked directly with her hands folded to cover her anxiety, which only betrayed it to a greater degree.
Qiao Yu glanced at her and said slightly, “Go to my room and I’ll tell you.”
Xia Ning watched his back but could not move. Thinking of what almost happened this morning, she was somewhat hesitant.
Seeing that Xia Ning did not follow, Qiao Yu stopped after a few steps and turned to look at her, “What’s the matter?”
“We should change locations.” Xia Ning suggested.
Qiao Yu gazed at her profoundly, “Are you afraid that I will go out of control, or that you will go out of control?”
“…” Xia Ning glared at Qiao Yu with a flicker of anger in her eyes.
Seeing her a bit angry, Qiao Yu raised his eyebrows, “Then let’s go to the study to talk.” Saying so, he walked towards the third floor.
Xia Ning originally wanted to refute him. But when she saw him leaving, she forcibly suppressed her discomfort and followed. In fact, she just did not want to be in the same room with him. Qiao Yu would become too aggressive in a place where the two of them were alone together.
The third floor’s pattern was similar to that of the second floor. But there were more guest rooms here. The study was in the east.
The whole study was filled with rosewood furniture and looked classically gloomy.
Xia Ning looked around and found that the room Qiao Yu uses was like his person.
“Enoch is fine. Just because of bad weather, he constantly has colds.” Qiao Yu brought a cup of tea to Xia Ning.
Xia Ning took it and looked at Qiao Yu, “Is it true?”
“Do you think Enoch has another disease?” Qiao Yu asked her back.
On hearing this, Xia Ning felt a tremor run through her heart and shook her head immediately, “No!”
How could she want her son to have a disease? She was just worried about it.
“Don’t be too nervous.” Qiao Yu said in a low voice.
Xia Ning looked at him and could not help but say, “Why didn’t you tell me that Enoch was ill?!” During that period of time, whenever she called him, his cell phone was turned off. She supposed that he was angry with her for not answering his previous calls and retaliated against her. So she stopped calling him after several attempts.
At that time, her scenes were arranged early in the shooting. She worked day and night just in order to return to her child as soon as possible. It was beyond her imagination that Enoch was hospitalized while she did not know.
“Do you care?” Qiao Yu asked her back.
Xia Ning glared at him, “Of course I care.” How could she not care about the child she ran the risk of death to give birth to, the child saved from death?
“Since you care about him, why are you unwilling to accept me again?” Qiao Yu stepped forward and stared at her fiercely.
Xia Ning looked at Qiao Yu with a start. To accept him again sounded really easy.
She suddenly sneered with a mockery, “Qiao Yu, you actually know I’m mentally ill. So, do you want to be with me because you feel guilty and pity me?”
