Qiao Xu forced a smile and walked over, squatting down in front of her.
"Momo."
She called out her na hoarsely, her voice tinged with a hint of lancholy.
"What’s wrong?"
Xia Yumo lowered her head to look at her.
Qiao Xu never thought that looking straight at soone could be so daunting.
She buried her face in Xia Yumo’s legs and, after a while, whispered:
"I found the person who poisoned you."
She could feel Xia Yumo’s body tense up slightly, and then she laughed:
"Isn’t it good that you found out? Why do you look like this?"
Qiao Xu pursed her lips, her eyes stinging.
She looked up at Xia Yumo, mustering all her courage before saying to her:
"It was Auntie Wang."
Xia Yumo’s face changed, and she repeated in disbelief, "Auntie Wang?"
Although she wasn’t familiar with Auntie Wang, the woman had taken good care of her during this ti, without any negligence.
"Auntie Wang’s son was bribed, and he poisoned the essential oil that Auntie Wang used for your massages."
Qiao Xu’s voice trembled slightly, and she looked at Xia Yumo with self-bla in her gaze.
Seeing Xia Yumo’s silence and apparent composure, Qiao Xu knew that she was not as calm as she appeared.
"I’m sorry, Momo."
Qiao Xu apologized, unsure of what else she could do besides apologizing and finding the culprit.
She didn’t even know if Xia Yumo would forgive her.
The more she saw Xia Yumo in silence, the more Qiao Xu’s heart tightened, overwheld by anxiety, fear, and the terror of losing Xia Yumo.
She didn’t even dare to look into Xia Yumo’s eyes.
"I don’t expect you to forgive , but can you give a chance to make it up to you?"
As Xia Yumo remained silent, Qiao Xu’s heart grew more and more restless.
After a long ti, Xia Yumo finally laughed.
Qiao Xu looked up at her, eting her smiling eyes.
She heard Xia Yumo say:
"The way you said that, it sounds like a scumbag begging for forgiveness."
Her tone was light, without a hint of complaint, but Qiao Xu couldn’t feel at ease.
Xia Yumo gently tapped Qiao Xu’s head with her hand and said:
"What are you thinking? This has nothing to do with you. If soone wants to harm , they’ll always find a way, and it can’t be prevented."
Her tone carried no bla or complaint; in fact, she was even comforting Qiao Xu. Hearing this, Qiao Xu felt the tip of her nose sting, and her eyes grew hot.
"If it wasn’t for you, I might not even have had a chance to regain consciousness."
She gently stroked Qiao Xu’s head like a tender older sister, consoling her:
"Isn’t everything fine now? Don’t be too greedy. It’s a miracle that I, a vegetative person, could wake up. What more could I ask for?"
Her attitude was exceptionally peaceful.
In the beginning, she might have had a hard ti accepting it, but it was better to calmly accept her fate rather than wallow in misery.
Qiao Xu knew that Xia Yumo was trying to comfort her, and the more she did so, the more guilt gnawed at her heart.
"But you didn’t have to suffer this originally."
Qiao Xu’s voice was hoarse from prolonged sobbing.
"Who can be sure about these things? Stop dwelling on it."
Xia Yumo patted her head and said, "Besides, even if I can’t walk, I still have survival skills. Do you think I’m scared that I won’t be able to cope without my legs?"
Qiao Xu remained silent, not saying a word.
