After saying this, she hung up the phone, closed her eyes, and quickly fell asleep.
But Dongfang Yu couldnât sleep at all!
It wasnât easy winning Hai Xiaotang over, and yet he could do nothing about it, he even had to suffer the pain of living separately!
He felt that life was too cruel.
But he had no choice, Hai Xiaotang was unwilling to yield to the idea.
He even doubted whether she was still the same Hai Xiaotang, who was always excited to see him in the past.
She must have changed her core, sheâs not the same Hai Xiaotang anymore!
Dongfang Yu aimlessly let his thoughts run freeâ¦
A night without dreams.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Early the next day, Hai Xiaotang got up early to go to the hospital to visit Qiao Ning.
Luckily, Qiao Ningâs condition had improved quite a bit today, and her mood seemed to be pretty good.
Qiao Ning even shared her plans with Xiaotang to not go back to Chaiâs house, but to rent a place and make a living on her own, cutting off all contact with her family.
Hai Xiaotang fully supported her, it was good to stay away from such a mother.
Additionally, this also enabled Qiao Ning to distance herself from Chai Xiyang. With time, perhaps her feelings for him would fade.
Although it was a pity that they, a very compatible couple, were torn apart and turned into strangers due to Qiao Ningâs mother, the two could not possibly be together anymore.
Not only had Qiao Ningâs mother destroyed someone elseâs family, she also conspired against Chai Xiyang.
If she were in their shoes, she wouldnât be able to be with Qiao Ning without any reservations either.
If they couldnât be together, then better to part ways.
Otherwise, Qiao Ning would forever be trapped in that tangled web of love.
But Qiao Ning had no money, she was still a student. Almost all of her expenses had been paid by Kong Minjuan. She was only in her second year, with two years left until she graduated.
Wanting to live independently wasnât an easy challenge to overcome.
Hai Xiaotang smiled, âThis wonât be a problem, I have money, which should be enough to last you through university.â
Qiao Ning was taken by surprise, then rapidly shook her head, âXiaotang, I donât want your money! Iâll find a job. I have hands and feet, Iâll not starve!â
âIâm not giving it to you for free, Iâm lending it to you. You can pay me back slowly once you start working.â
âI still donât want it.â Qiao Ning firmly refused.
âWhy?â Hai Xiaotang was puzzled.
Ning laughed, âSince I decided to be independent, I must rely on myself. If I rely on you now, it wonât count as being independent. Xiaotang, this is my chance to grow. I have to make it through one step at a time, no matter how tough it is!â
Hai Xiaotang was happy with her mindset.
She thought for a while and said, âOkay, I respect your decision. But if you encounter any difficulties, you must tell me. Donât shoulder them all by yourself!â
âYes, I promise!â Qiao Ning nodded earnestly, reassuring Hai Xiaotang a lot.
Having planned everything, Qiao Ning decided to be discharged from the hospital and start house-hunting.
Just then, Dongfang Yu called.
Today was Saturday, he wanted to take Hai Xiaotang out on a date, but she turned him down, âI am going to accompany Qiao Ning to find a house. She plans to move out and be independent. I donât have much time today, letâs schedule it some other day.â
â What kind of house are you looking for?â Dongfang Yu asked.
âWhy, do you want to help with the house hunting?â replied Hai Xiaotang nonchalantly, âA small one-bedroom apartment will be fine. Ideally close to the university with a nice neighborhood.â
âIâll get someone to find it. Iâll call you later.â Dongfang Yu hung up after delivering his message, leaving Hai Xiaotang surprised. Was he really going to help?
