They would talk about the rest later.
She did not want to face her motherâs bombardment after coming out of the surgery and still feeling weak. She really did not know how to deal with it.
Qiao Weiyang knew that Xiao Qing was in a dilemma. Coincidentally, she didnât need to accompany her grandfather, so she came out with her.
âThis is your room card. Iâve made an appointment for you to undergo surgery the day after tomorrow. You can stay here for the first three days after the surgery. I can get room service to deliver you nutritious meals. After that, there wonât be a big problem. You can go home and rest,â Qiao Weiyang instructed.
âIâll come and see you when Iâm free.â
âYes.â Xiao Qingâs eyes were wet. âWeiyang, I really wouldnât have known what to do without you.â
Qiao Weiyang handed her a tissue. âTake good care of yourself. Donât cry.â
âLetâs go eat a big meal! I heard that I canât eat spicy food for a few days after the surgery. Letâs go eat tonight!â
Seeing that she was pretending to be strong, Qiao Weiyang couldnât bear to reject her. She said, âOkay, you can eat whatever you want. My treat.â
The two of them went to a hotpot restaurant and asked for a private room. After ordering, they were about to eat when Xiao Qingâs phone rang.
She immediately picked it up. âMom!â
âYou still have the galls to call me your mom?! Where are you?â
âIâm having dinner with Uncle Liaoâs son.â Since Xiao Qing was already fooling her mother, she lied immediately.
âWhatâs your Uncle Liaoâs sonâs name? Whatâs his phone number?â Xiao Qing:
She really didnât know because she never asked for that information.
At that time, she had only casually glanced at WeChat. When the other party sent her a message, her interaction with him was similar to her interaction with other men. He invited her out, but she kept rejecting him.
âHeâs sitting beside me now. Come to the address I sent you immediately!â Mrs. Xiao was furious.
âMom, donât be so angry. Iâm just..
At this point, Xiao Qingâs mind exploded.
She hung up the phone and grabbed Qiao Weiyangâs hand. âIâm doomed! Iâm doomed! When I left, I left my bag at the door and didnât take it. I just took my cell phone and came out! My medical report is in my bag! I didnât even zip my bag up at that time! My mother saw it! She must have seen it. Otherwise, she wouldnât have said that Uncle Liaoâs son was beside her. She must have thought that the child was Uncle Liaoâs son, so she went to settle the score for me!
Ahhh!â
Qiao Weiyang understood what she meant. âDonât worry, donât worry. Weâll rush over immediately.â
âAhhhh!â Xiao Qing was on the verge of exploding.
When Qiao Weiyang and Xiao Qing arrived at the place Mrs. Xiao had mentioned, Xiao Qing was already paralyzed.
She was like a puppet as Qiao Weiyang led her forward. She felt as though she was stepping on cotton.
âQing Qing.â Qiao Weiyang held her shoulders. âXiao Qing.â
Xiao Qing barely adjusted her expression and said calmly, âIâm already mentally prepared. Letâs go.â
Since she had to face it no matter what, she would face it directly.
Qiao Weiyang looked at her red eyes and said softly, âAnyway, Iâll accompany you.â
Seeing her smile, Qiao Weiyang accompanied her in.
When they arrived at the door of the private room, Qiao Weiyang glanced at Xiao Qing and knocked.
With a whoosh, the door opened, and Liao Yihengâs face appeared.
Liao Yiheng was Uncle Liaoâs son, the young man who appeared at the jewelry event that day.
He said helplessly, âYouâre finally here.â
He was beaten up by Mrs. Xiao for no reason. He still didnât know what was going on.
He looked depressed. When he saw Xiao Qing, he smiled.
âCome in.â
Qiao Weiyang accompanied Xiao Qing in and saw Mrs. Xiao sitting on the sofa with a gloomy expression.
Liao Yiheng wanted to say something, but he didnât dare to. The atmosphere was in a deadlock.
After a long time, Liao Yiheng said, âSo, Aunt⦠Why are you looking for me? Iâve already said that I didnât go out with Xiao Qing. I havenât gone out with her until now. I donât know why youâre questioning me about her. Now that sheâs here, shall we talk things out?â
When Qiao Weiyang heard his words, she immediately understood. Although Mrs. Xiao had seen Xiao Qingâs pregnancy test report, when she came to look for Liao Yiheng, she was very angry and thought that he was the childâs father. However, out of her protective nature, she did not directly say what had happened.
Hence, Liao Yiheng still did not know what Mrs. Xiao was angry about.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qiao Weiyang said to Liao Yiheng, âI asked Xiao Qing out for a drink. Xiao Qing was afraid that Aunt wouldnât agree if she found out, so she told Aunt that she was with you. In the end, when Aunt called you, she realized that you two werenât together. She got so angry because she was worried.â
Seeing that Liao Yiheng was not suspicious, Qiao Weiyang said, âIâm sorry to trouble you. Let Xiao Qing talk to Aunt alone for a while.â
âOkay.â Liao Yiheng turned around and walked out of the room.
Qiao Weiyang held Xiao Qingâs hand. âHave a good conversation with Aunt. Iâll wait for you outside.â
Xiao Qing could only watch her leave.
Only Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Qing were left in the room. Mrs. Xiao stood up and raised her hand to slap Xiao Qingâs face.
Xiao Qing closed her eyes and looked like she was willing to be beaten and scolded. She did not resist or defend herself.
Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Xiao couldnât continue beating her.
She was angry and heartbroken. She slammed her palm on the table and took out the pregnancy test report. Her voice trembled. âTell me, tell me! Whatâs going on?! Tell me!â
âMom, Iâm sorry.â Xiao Qing clenched her fists. âItâs my fault. I shouldnât have done such a thing.â
Mrs. Xiao was so angry that she almost fainted. After a long time, she said,
âYou donât have a boyfriend, and youâre not with Liao Yiheng, so how did this happen? Are you going to anger me to death?â
Fortunately, she still cared about her daughterâs dignity. When she came to look for Liao Yiheng angrily just now, she did not say anything. Otherwise, what would outsiders think of Xiao Qing now?
âMom, Iâm really sorry.â
âI donât want to hear your apology. Whoâs that person? Did he bully you? I know youâre very obedient and donât usually have any intention of dating. The other party must have bullied you, right?â
Mrs. Xiao held Xiao Qingâs hand. âTell me and Iâll stand up for you! Letâs sue him and make him pay the price!â
Xiao Qing hesitated for a moment and said, âIâm sorry, I donât know who he is either. I was drunk that night, and I didnât see his face clearly. Besides, he didnât bully me.. I was too drunk at that time and took the initiative to fall into his armsâ¦â
