Each time she saw them together, a sense of loss would overwhelm Qiao Ningâs heart.
But for now, it wasnât the time to care about that.
At the moment, all she wanted to do was look after Chai Xiyangâs health.
Lin Xinxin found Qiao Ning first. Looking surprised, she smiled and asked, âMiss Qiao, youâve come too?â
Chai Xiyang glanced sideways, his expression indifferent, as if looking at someone irrelevant.
Qiao Ningâs gaze flickered. Without a word, she did not enter the room but faintly nodded and left.
Lin Xinxin was puzzled, âWhy didnât she come in?â
âWhy should she? Iâm not welcoming her.â Chai Xiyang replied indifferently.
Lin Xinxin noticed that Chai Xiyang was nice to everyone except Qiao Ning; his attitude towards her was terrible.
She more or less knew the grudges between them and why Chai Xiyang disliked Qiao Ning.
But for some unknown reason, she felt that Chai Xiyang treated Qiao Ning differently.
Even if it was hatred, it was a different kind of hatredâ¦
How would he hate others? Given his character, he would probably take them to task ruthlessly.
Donât think heâs a nice person, heâs actually quite vengefulâ¦
âI noticed she seemed very concerned about youâ¦â Lin Xinxin purposely probed.
Chai Xiyang jokingly retorted, âOh, are you jealous? You better hurry up and accept me to prevent me from being snatched away.â
Lin Xinxin laughed, âStop teasing me.â
It was always like this, Chai Xiyang often made these unserious jokes.
His actions always gave her a feeling of insincerityâ¦
Moreover, every time he joked around, he was never serious about pursuing her nor putting in any effort. How could she dare to believe and respond?
Sheâs also afraid that these are really just his jokes, and in the end, she would become a laughing stock.
After all, what Lin Xinxin wanted was something she could be absolutely sure of.
For something so uncertain, she wouldnât make rash movesâ¦
However, this didnât mean she would sit back and do nothing; she would find ways to gradually pull the things she wanted closer.
Picking up an apple, Lin Xinxin casually remarked, âI saw Miss Qiao earlier, and she seems to have lost a lot of weight. The case must be draining her mentally.â
Chai Xiyang leaned against the headboard, flipping through a book with a nonchalant expression, âIs that so? I didnât notice.â
âShe really has lost a lot of weight. The stress must be overwhelming for her. The president and his wife are devastated by Yingyingâs death and are solely focused on catching the murderer, pressuring the police daily. The only suspect the police have currently is Miss Qiao⦠But I genuinely do not believe Miss Qiao could do something like that, do you?â
Chai Xiyang glanced at her and chuckled dismissively, âHow would I know what kind of person she is? Maybe she is that kind of person. You never know.â
Lin Xinxin was shocked, âReally, Miss Qiao could actually kill someone⦠Could it be manslaughter? If it is her, she must be really good at disguisingâ¦â
âWhatever she does, itâs the policeâs responsibility.â Chai Xiyang snatched the apple from her hand, took a huge bite, and clearly did not want to continue this topic.
Lin Xinxin didnât bring it up again. After lingering for a while longer and reminding Chai Xiyang to rest well, she left.
Once Lin Xinxin left, the spacious hospital room felt vacant to Chai Xiyang once again.
Even when she was here, it felt empty to him.
What should he do? After only two days in the hospital, he was already unbearable with the atmosphereâ¦
