In the past, she would only feel happy if she always made things difficult for him. Now that she saw his state… Sigh, in the end, she could not bear it and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Shao Jingmo returned to the bed and sat down. His every move was extremely slow, and it was obvious that he was different from usual. Qiao Qiao, who wasn’t very meticulous, also sensed that something was wrong with him. Thinking about how weak his voice was on the phone, she couldn’t help but ask, “Hey, are you alright?”
Shao Jingmo looked up at her. “You don’t know how to greet people anymore?”
Qiao Qiao: ‘
See, she knew she shouldn’t have felt sorry for him. This man was not worthy of her heartache at all. It was not like he would lose a piece of meat with a
‘hey’. Qiao Qiao cursed in her heart, but on the surface, she looked obedient.
“Little Uncle.’
Shao Jingmo leaned back and nodded without looking at her. “Actually, you don’t have to come.’
“On the one hand, you didn’t need me to come over, and on the other hand, you sent me the location and door number. Did I get the wrong meaning?” Qiao Qiao walked to the bed and crossed her arms. “It’s also my fault. 1 have to understand that you were only reporting your safety and didn’t mean to let me come over…”
Shao Jingmo interrupted her. “That’s not what I meant.”
Qiao Qiao choked.
Shao Jingmo opened his eyes and looked up at her. His voice was low. “You can leave if you want. I’m fine here. Don’t worry.”
“Who’s worried about you?” Qiao Qiao’s reaction was especially sensitive, as if she was afraid that Shao Jingmo would misunderstand. “Mom told me that you were coming to the capital. I thought that since I didn’t pick you up, I had to see you. That way, 1 could answer to Mom.”
The corners of Shao Jingmo’s lips curled up slightly. “You’ve seen me now. You can go back first.”
“Go… back…” was speechless for a moment.
Shao Jingmo asked, ‘Are you staying at the MO residence today?”
Qiao Qiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded. “…Yes!”
Shao Jingmo said, “Then go back to the MO residence first. I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning. ”
Qiao Qiao: ‘
Was he… chasing her away?
Qiao Qiao stared at Shao Jingmo and took a closer look. Seeing that he didn’t seem to be joking, she slowly took half a step out. After taking half a step, she glanced at Shao Jingmo again. There was still no movement, so she turned around and left boldly.
As she reached the door, she saw Dao Xi approaching with a room service.
“Miss Qiao?” Dao Xi looked at Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao quickly came out and closed the door. “There’s nothing else. Uncle needs to rest. Let’s go back to the MO residence now.”
Dao Xi didn’t ask any questions. He nodded and turned to explain the situation to room service.
The attendant breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good. I’m glad he’s okay.” Dao Xi took an extra precaution, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
The attendant followed beside Dao Xi and said as they walked, “At that time, the guest in room 9982 came to register for a room. His face was frighteningly pale, and we felt that he would faint at any moment. We were not too relieved, so we followed him up and only dared to leave after seeing him enter the guest room. When we heard you mention this guest room just now, we were all terrified. We thought something had happened to the guest in this guest room.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Qiao, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped in her tracks. She turned. Dao Xi and the attendant looked at her at the same time. Qiao Qiao asked the room service man, “You said that when he came in to register for a room, his face was frighteningly pale?”
The attendant nodded. “Yes.’
Qiao Qiao said, “Just now, he came down to look for you to open the door to room 9982…” Qiao Qiao pointed at Dao Xi beside her and continued, “Did you think something happened to the guest in room 9982?”
The attendant nodded again. “Yes.” With that, the attendant raised the phone in his hand. “I’m ready to call 120 at any time, but ma’am, you just came out of room 9982. The guest in room 9982 should be fine, right?”
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips and remained silent. When she went in just now, Shao Jingmo did not look like nothing had happened. Shao Jingmo’s expression was verv bad. She even complained that he was as haggard as a terminal illness… Was it possible that he had been holding on since the moment she saw him?
Was Shao Jingmo sick? His voice was so tired, and heisface was so pale and haggard. It was obvious from his reaction! But she didn’t take it seriously!
Qiao Qiao pushed the two people in front of her away and quickly turned back. Realizing the door was closed, she waved to the attendant. “Come and open the door for a moment.’
The attendant didn’t ask why. It was mainly because they were afraid that something would happen to the guest inside and they would have to take responsibility. He quickly came over with a secondary card.
There was a beep and the door opened. Qiao Qiao walked in quickly. When she saw Shao Jingmo lying on the bed with his eyes closed, her breathing stopped and her heart skipped a beat. “Shao Jingmo!’
She hurried over. She knelt on one knee at the edge of the bed and reached out to shake Shao Jingmo’s shoulder. At first, it was a light shake, but Shao
Jingmo did not react. Qiao Qiao’s voice trembled involuntarily. “Shao… Shao Jingmo?”
Dao Xi and the attendant, who had followed in, saw this scene and their expressions changed.
Dao Xi stepped forward to help. With trembling hands, the attendant clicked on the dial to dial 120. Qiao Qiao didn’t wake Shao Jingmo up. She wanted to help him up, but she was too weak. Shao Jingmo was 1.87 meters tall, so it was difficult for her to even help him up.
Qiao Qiao was anxious. She said in a nasal voice, “Shao Jingmo, nothing must happen to you. If you die, I’ll be a widow at a young age…”
Beside her, Dao Xi, who was about to reach out to help, widened his eyes when he heard Qiao Qiao’s words!
Wasn’t this the relationship between Little Uncle and his niece? How did they become husband and wife??
Dao Xi was dumbfounded and his mind was in a mess!
Qiao Qiao turned around and saw that Dao Xi was stunned and not helping.
Just as she was about to ask him for help, a calm voice fell into her ears— “Afraid of becoming a widow?”
Hearing Shao Jingmo’s voice, Qiao Qiao was stunned. She slowly turned around and saw Shao Jingmo looking at her with a faint smile.
In just a second, Qiao Qiao’s face turned red. However, her physical reaction was half a beat too slow and she did not get up from Shao Jingmo’s body.
Shao Jingmo raised his hand and his palm naturally landed on her waist. That slender waist was easily controlled in his palm. It was a very ambiguous posture, but no one had any romantic thoughts.
He pushed her a little harder with his arm. “Get up first.”
Qiao Qiao was angry and ashamed. She only remembered to get up from his body after he reminded her. She didn’t pay much attention when she got up and accidentally pressed her hand on the wound on her waist. The pain was magnified at this moment. Shao Jingmo frowned.
Qiao Qiao thought he was pretending. “How much do I weigh? That’s enough to make you feel so weak.”
Her casual words didn’t go through her head. If she said them, she said them. Then she realized belatedly that she’d expressed them a little strangely. They haven’t had sex yet. Why did she say he was weak?
Dao Xi felt a little awkvvard beside them and did not dare to ask about their true relationship. At this moment, he interrupted, “Mr. Qiao… Uh, Mr. Shao, how are you? Do you need to go to the hospital?”
Shao Jingmo said, “No need..”
