At night, the sickroom was lit up with warm lights. Mrs Jiang sat on the side of the bed with a benevolent expression: "Xia Qingchen, the doctor said that you don't want to drink too much soup today. Mom personally made you a bowl of chicken noodle soup. Eat some if you have an appetite. "If you don't have any appetite, then tell mom what you want to eat. Mom will make it for you tomorrow …"
Gu Qingyou leaned on the headboard. After an afternoon's rest, her complexion had already improved a lot. She shook her head gently at Mrs Jiang. Mom, I have an appetite. In a while, I will eat all of your chicken noodle soup, so don't be nervous. "
When Mrs Jiang heard Gu Qingyou's words of consolation, his nose couldn't help but turn red. "I'm sorry, it's all mother's fault for not meticulously filtering the servants at home, causing you to experience such hardships …"
Gu Qingyou asked softly, "Has it been proven to be done by the family's servants?"
The Mrs Jiang nodded his head, "She was the servant that prepared breakfast for you in the kitchen. She disappeared after your accident, and we have yet to find her."
"If I think about it, it could only be a problem with my breakfast." Gu Qingyou let out a long sigh: "Blame me for being too stupid, I didn't feel anything unusual about breakfast."
Mrs Jiang was so angry that his face tensed up, "If she wants to make a move in breakfast, how can you feel it?"
Gu Qingyou nodded.
"If I find the servant who did this, I will never let Jiang Jun spare this person!" Mrs Jiang was so angry that he coughed a bit, and then held Gu Qingyou's hand. But you don't have to worry, if you get pregnant again, mom will definitely not let any of the servants take part in your diet again. Mom will personally make food for you. "
"Alright."
At this time, the butler walked over and reported respectfully, "Madam, the Boss Jiang is here."
The Mrs Jiang complained, "He just arrived at this time, can't he come earlier?" Even though she said that, Mrs Jiang still stood up from the side of the bed: "Jiang Jun is here, let Jiang Jun accompany you. Remember to finish eating the chicken noodle soup, it's already cold enough."
"Alright."
Then, Mrs Jiang brought the butler and left. When they met Jiang Jun at the entrance, the Mrs Jiang didn't forget to scold him a few more times before leaving the ward.
Jiang Jun looked at Gu Qingyou's pale face from afar and waved to Rui Er, who was in the ward, signaling her to leave.
Rui Er then put down the chicken noodle soup in his hands and left the sickroom with the nurse.
Jiang Jun sat on the edge of the bed and habitually wrapped his arms around her waist. Are you feeling better tonight? "
Even though Gu Qingyou's expression was still as calm as it was in the daytime, because of Jiang Jun's actions, the depressed feelings that she had been suppressing in her heart was slightly released.
Gu Qingyou lowered his eyes and said honestly, "Not so good, when I think of this matter, I feel uncomfortable all along."
Jiang Jun looked at her deeply for about a minute before speaking, "Do you need me to accompany you here at night?"
Gu Qingyou blinked her dry and hard eyes. She raised her head and recovered her resolute gaze: "I'm fine, I just want to know, why did that servant do it? Is it because there is a conflict with Jiang Family people? "Or …" She paused. "Is there a mastermind behind this?"
Jiang Jun retracted his hand that was on Gu Qingyou's waist, and picked up the chicken noodle soup from the side, and said indifferently, "I want this matter to end here."
Gu Qingyou was dazed for a second, thinking that he had misheard.
Jiang Jun lifted up some of the noodles in the bowl and brought it to Gu Qingyou's mouth.
Seeing Jiang Jun's unchanging calm expression, Gu Qingyou stared at him in a daze, and with a hint of disbelief, "Are you saying that we should just let this matter go like this?"
"The noodles will be cold, take a bite first." Jiang Jun still spoke in a calm and tranquil ma
er.
Gu Qingyou turned his face away, took a deep breath in, and asked with a slightly trembling voice, "Can you tell me why?"
"Eat the noodles first."
"I have no appetite."
Jiang Jun looked at her seriously, "You have to eat even if you don't have an appetite, unless you don't care about your own body."
"I can't eat." Gu Qingyou didn't even blink an eye as she stared at him, "I want to know the reason why you decided not to pursue the matter."
Jiang Jun put down the noodles on his chopsticks.
Gu Qingyou's eyes were abnormally clean and clear, like the sky after being washed.
He spoke quietly. "I'll explain it to you after you finish eating."
Gu Qingyou hesitated for a while, before she took the noodles from Jiang Jun's hands.
The noodles made by the Mrs Jiang was extremely fragrant. She put it in her mouth, but she couldn't taste it.
Jiang Jun took the bowl from Gu Qingyou and placed it back on the bedside table.
Gu Qingyou's gaze congealed, waiting for his explanation.
Jiang Jun finally opened his mouth and said with the same calm tone he always used towards her, "I don't want to pursue this matter anymore."
Gu Qingyou frowned, "Why?"
Jiang Jun remained indifferent, "This is the only explanation I can give you."
Gu Qingyou's delicate eyebrows furrowed even more, she could not believe that he had actually replied her with such a casual tone.
This was a fresh little life, how could he be so calm?
However, the child that she had lost was also his blood and bone. Did he not feel the slightest bit of heartache? Why did she feel like he was someone who had nothing to do with it?
Then, yesterday, after knowing that she might be pregnant, he said that nothing was more important than his child on the way to the hospital. When he accompanied her out of the car, he even helped her pay attention to the road beneath her feet. Are they all fake?
Or is it …
Thinking of this, Gu Qingyou felt even more pain in his eyes. "But you told me in the morning that you would make the person who did this pay the price they should have." she asked him, like a statement, but she could not suppress the tremor in her voice.
Jiang Jun did not answer her.
Gu Qingyou looked at him for a very long time, then retracted his painful gaze.
His silence told her the answer, and everything was clear.
Finally, she looked up at him with a trace of sadness rising in her throat. She spoke calmly, "You can let this go, but I have already completed the agreement between me and you regarding the birth of a child."
An unknown emotion flashed past Jiang Jun's dark eyes.
Gu Qingyou continued to speak, "Strictly speaking, because the loss of a child is not due to me, the transaction between us can be considered complete, but I would not be this unkind. Your wife's body has not recovered yet, so I will wait for her to recover before exchanging my identity with her. But before that, I want to keep my distance from you. "
Jiang Jun seemed to squint his eyes. In that instant, the shrewdness and cu
ing of a merchant flashed past his eyes. He opened his mouth and asked in a deep voice, "Are you angry with me?"
For some reason, she, who had always been nervous in front of him, now laughed coldly.
What right did she have to be angry with him?
They were not related in the slightest, but because they each took what they needed, they came together.
Why should she be angry with him?
However, it was true that she was disappointed in him.
Was his indulgence really a form of protection for that person?
She suddenly didn't want to talk to him anymore.
"Excuse me, I want to go to the bathroom." Gu Qingyou lifted his blanket and got ready to get off the bed.
She was glad that the Chief of Gynecology from Jiang Family had done the best surgery on her. Other than the faint pain from her lower body, her body no longer felt weak.
But Jiang Jun did not move.
Gu Qingyou prepared to get off the bed from the other side. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jun grabbed her slim legs and easily carried her from the side of the bed to sit on his lap.
Gu Qingyou was stu
ed for a moment.
