Inside the room, Yang Xiang locked the door and quickly walked to the terrace by the floor-to-ceiling window.
She made a phone call, a hint of nervousness flashing in her eyes.
âHow did it go?â
Itâs not known what the person on the other end of the call said, but Yang Xiang raised the corners of her mouth in a deceptive smile.
âOk, I got it. Donât worry, I wonât deduct a penny from your payment. I will transfer the money to your account later.â
After hanging up the call, Yang Xiang let out a cackling laugh.
Daisy, Daisy, you probably didnât expect that it was me who called the police on you.
Thinking of setting me up? No way.
Holding onto Xiya only to leave you is to court disaster. Do you really think I, Yang Xiang, am so foolish as to let you pull my strings?
Ridiculous.
âXiangxiang, what are you doing in your room? Zhou Yi is looking for you.â A knock rang out, followed by Yang Linâs voice from outside the door.
âComing.â
Hearing that Zhou Yi had arrived, Yang Xiang quickly returned to the room. After checking her makeup in the mirror, she opened the door and walked out.
Outside the door, Yang Lin looked at her and asked, âWhat were you doing in your room?â
âNothing, sister, where is Zhou Yi?â replied Yang Xiang.
âHeâs downstairs, hurry up, donât keep him waiting too long.â
âOkay.â
âŠ
As night fell, a light rain started to patter down.
The gentle light illuminated the hospital ward. On the bed, Xiya still hadnât woken up.
Bai Jue pushed the door open and walked in, calling out helplessly to Khan who was sitting by the bed.
âKhan, come and eat something first.â
Khan carefully let go of Xiyaâs hand and stood up. Having sat in the same position for too long, his legs were a bit numb.
He took a moment to regain his strength before walking over.
âYou should also rest a little. Xiya wonât wake up until tomorrow. Donât pass out when she wakes up.â Bai Jue sat on the sofa, his legs crossed.
He had given so much blood, yet he neither ate nor drank, nor did he rest for a while. Did he think he was made of iron?
Khan sat down opposite him, suddenly remembering his child, and hastily asked, âBai Jue, howâs the baby?â
âOh, finally remembered the child. I thought you only had eyes for Xiya.â Bai Jue deliberately teased him.
âHowâs the baby really?â
âThe baby is fine, itâs in the incubator now.â Bai Jue took out his phone while speaking, âDo you want to see a picture of the baby?â
On hearing this, Khanâs eyes lit up. He hastily grabbed his phone and said, âOf course.â
After getting the phone, he lowered his head and opened the photo album. Seeing the tiny bundle in the photo, Khanâs heart softened.
This was his child.
He was a father now, his little princess was here.
Bai Jue watched as he held the phone, laughing like a fool, and made a disgusted face, âThatâs enough, youâre laughing like an idiot.â
âWhat do you know? You single dog wouldnât understand what it feels like to become a father.â Khan kept his eyes on the phone and said disdainfully.
Pah, he was really hot-tempered.
His words were really irritating, werenât they?
Bai Jueâs mouth twitched, âI donât get it, you do. Even Xiya said that the child isnât yours. What are you so happy about?â
Whatâs there to be proud of? He hasnât even won his wife back, and heâs thinking about being a dad. Dream on.
âSince when did your sight get so poor?â Khan raised his head, looking at him with a hint of contempt. âMy little princess looks so much like me. With these genes, who dares say sheâs not my progeny?â
Bai Jue raised an eyebrow, pointed at the still unconscious Xiya and said with a smile, âThatâs yet to be seen. The woman lying unconscious on the bed would dare to say so.â
Khan looked depressed, ââŠâ
âBy the way, whatâs the deal with your ex-girlfriend? Didnât you break up ages ago?â Bai Jue brought up Daisy, whom he had seen by the river today, feeling that something was off.
âAre you talking about Daisy?â
âWho else? Do you have many ex-girlfriends?â
âI broke up with her a long time ago. I donât know why she was arrested today either.â
âI find that woman quite suspicious. Youâd better watch out.â Bai Jue spoke frankly.
Khan furrowed his brows, âWhat do you mean?â
âI canât tell for sure, but Jian Qing is investigating Xiyaâs kidnapping. We should get the result soon. Letâs wait for tomorrow. You should rest early, Iâm heading back.â Bai Jue shook his sleeve and stood up.
âYou donât have to worry about the baby. Jian Qingâs got someone watching.â
âThanks, bro!â Khan punched his shoulder in gratitude.
Bai Jue rubbed his arm, âPlease, donât be so formal. Iâm not used to it.â
âScrew you.â Khan laughed and cursed.
After Bai Jue left, Khan returned to his seat by the bed.
He looked at the sleeping woman on the bed, his gaze softening.
He reached out and caressed her pale cheek, caressing his thumb over her eyebrows and eyes, âXiya, from now on, you and our little princess are my everything. I wonât let you get hurt again.â
He bent over, giving a light kiss on her forehead.
In a place where no one could see, the sleeping womanâs fingers twitched, then returned to tranquility.
âŠ
The cold voice echoed in the bedroom.
After hanging up the call, a cold light flashed in Jian Qingâs eyes. She looked out the window at the dark night, which seemed to deepen her gloomy mood.
Yang Xiang, Daisy!
Heh, they really were birds of a feather.
It seems I should not have let them go in the first place.
Suddenly the door was gently pushed open. Jian Qing drew back her gaze to look.
As her eyes met the newcomer, the chill in her eyes instantly faded.
âXiaojing!â
âSitting on the couch, why didnât you take a blanket?â Quan Jingwu had a tray in his hand, the white porcelain bowl on top was the most frequently seen thing since Jian Qing had become pregnant.
âWhatâs that youâre holding?â Jian Qing saw the stew in his hand and immediately frowned.
âItâs a soup my mother made.â Quan Jingwu sat down on the couch and put his coat over her.
Jian Qing sat up, wrapped her arms around his neck, and implored in a soft voice, âHoney, I know youâre the best to me. You must be tired from taking care of me these days. Why donât you drink the soup for me?â
She couldnât refuse the soup made by her mother-in-law. However, she really couldnât drink any more. She hadnât digested her dinner yet, and she really couldnât drink this soup.
