Chapter 27: 027. Is there a misunderstanding?
After saying this, she turned to look at Lu Moqing and complained, “Brother, look at Qiao Xu. She dared to talk about like that in front of you. I told you, she’s not a good person. I don’t know why Grandma likes her so much, Xiao Rou is much better than her.”
Lu Xintong was his only sister, and she had always been frail and sickly since childhood. He had always spoiled and indulged her.
He had heard about how she used to treat Qiao Xu because of Su Rou, but he never interfered and even preferred it that way. However, just now, every word Lu Xintong said against Qiao Xu sounded extrely harsh to his ears.
“She’s your doctor. You have to listen to her, of course!”
“Brother…”
Lu Xintong looked at Lu Moqing in astonishnt, not expecting her always loving brother to stand up for Qiao Xu at this mont. The undisguised authority in his eyes made her feel sowhat terrified.
“Brother, didn’t you hear what she said just now? She said…”
“I heard!”
Lu Moqing frowned, a hint of impatience in his eyes.
“Anyway, she’s your primary doctor. If you don’t want to die, listen to her. Prepare for surgery. The rest is none of your business. Don’t try to sche for others, thinking you can get sothing from .”
Every word Lu Moqing said at this mont was powerful. Though not fierce, the warning in his words was impossible to ignore, leaving Lu Xintong stunned.
Did the “soone else” her brother ntioned refer to Xiao Rou?
She had tried to set Xiao Rou up with her brother before, but while he never accepted, he never explicitly refused either. Why this ti…
“Yu, watch her closely. I’ll be back in a bit.”
“Okay, I got it, brother.”
Lu Moqing turned and left the ward. His deep eyes darkened montarily.
I care about Lu Moqing, and by extension, I care about his sister too…
The words Qiao Xu spoke before she left echoed in his ears endlessly.
She cared about him…
During their three years of marriage, he had never taken her seriously, let alone cared about her feelings. In his mind, her care for him was mostly pretense.
But ti and ti again, the way Qiao Xu looked at him, the admiration and eagerness to please, made him wonder if he had misunderstood sothing.
Initially, when Qiao Xu approached him, saying she’d do anything as long as he married her, he had clearly despised her. Yet, when he heard her make such a request, he inexplicably agreed.
Everyone thought he was forced by Grandma to marry Qiao Xu. Later, even he believed so, because only then would he not feel so foolish and cheap for willingly marrying her after being manipulated by her.
He even used those three years of coldness and indifference to express his punishnt and dissatisfaction with her, never realizing that it was a double-edged sword, hurting both parties.
However, when she handed him the divorce agreent, his heart was filled with a growing sense of panic and helplessness, as all her past actions towards him suddenly flooded into his mind.
Especially the words Qiao Xu just said to Lu Xintong, which seed to have engraved sothing in his heart that couldn’t be erased.
He walked towards Qiao Xu’s Office, finding the door locked. After hesitating, he raised his hand and knocked.
