Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

508 Xing Chen’s Guilt

When she returned to the aunt’s house, Qiao An entered the house without saying goodbye to Xing Chen.

Xing Chen looked at her closed door and felt an inexplicable tug in his heart.

She was in the rain. Hopefully, she wouldn’t catch a cold.

Xingchen brought the village belle home. They made ginger soup to ward off the cold and drank a bowl each.

Xing Chen looked at the extra bowl he’d deliberately made and fell into conflict and confusion. Since he was determined not to have anything to do with Qiao An anymore, why should he miss her? He might as well pour more ginger water into the pool.

As if that would curb his longing for Qiao An.

The next day, Qiao An had a cold.

Her head felt light and she began to have a fever.

Xiao Yue and Qiao He woke up early in the morning, but they were discussing going home. Qiao He had been out for two days and missed his child even more. Therefore, he got up and told Xiao Yue, “Yueyue, I miss our baby. Let’s go home.”

It was normal for a new father to miss his child.

Xiao Yue’s eyes were also red, but she thought more thoroughly. “If we leave, what about Sister An’an? It wasn’t easy for her to reunite with Cousin. She definitely won’t leave with us. I’m afraid it’s not appropriate to leave her here alone, right?”

Qiao He said, “It’s fine. When we go back, we’ll get Brother Xiao Ming to replace us.”

Xiao Yue rolled her eyes at him. “Can’t you tell how Brother Xiao Ming feels about Sister An? He has liked Sister An for so many years. If he comes and sees An’an hurt because of Cousin every day, won’t Brother Xiao Ming feel terrible?”

Qiao He said, “Then call Li Zecheng over.”

Xiao Yue punched him and said coquettishly, “You really like to watch the world burn.”

Qiao He said, “They’ve been really good to Qiao An all these years. I’ll only be at ease if they take care of my sister.”

Xiao Yue said, “Anyone can come, but not the two of them. If they come, the world will be in chaos.”

At this moment, Qiao An got up shakily and sat listlessly in the courtyard, in a daze.

“Achoo.” From time to time, she sneezed.

Qiao He and Xiao Yue quickly ran out. “Sister An’an, do you have a cold?”

Qiao An nodded listlessly. “I got caught in the rain yesterday.”

Next door, Xing Chen heard Qiao An’s voice outside and suddenly felt vexed.

He shouldn’t have treated her like that last night. He should have given her a bowl of ginger soup.

Qiao He was very anxious. “You really caught a cold at the wrong time. Yueyue and I are preparing to go home today. Sister, why don’t you go back with us?”

Return home?

For some reason, a large piece of Xing Chen’s heart was missing.

Qiao An looked at the door of Xing Chen’s room with sad eyes.

“I’m not done yet. I can’t go back for the time being.”

Qiao He said, “But you’re sick. Are we worried about you staying here alone?”

Qiao An said, “There’s cold medicine in the car. I’ll be fine after taking it. Don’t worry about me.”

Qiao He suddenly became serious and said with a smile, “Sister, should I call Brother Xiao Ming over for you?”

Qiao An glared at him. “Why are you calling him here? The condition here is extremely well-contained. It’ll be under control soon. He doesn’t need to be here.”

Qiao An’s slowness made Qiao He anxious. “Let him come and take care of you.”

Qiao An scolded him. “Are you sick? Why are you letting him take care of me?”

Qiao He grinned and said, “Alright, forget it if you don’t want it.”

He picked out the room where Xing Chen was. “Sigh, the falling flowers are in love, and the flowing water is heartless. My heart is directed to the moon, but the moon illuminates the ditch.”

Xiao Yue said, “Don’t get excited. Go to the car and get my cold medicine.”

“Yes.”

Xing Chen sat on the bed, feeling inexplicably happy. It was just because Qiao An had said she wouldn’t go back for the time being.

But after the joy, he felt melancholic. If she didn’t return today, what about tomorrow? She didn’t belong here, did she?

The disappointment in his heart intensified. He suddenly pulled open the door and walked out.

Standing in the doorway, his gaze turned unnaturally to Qiao An. She stared at him like a resentful wife, then turned her head away angrily.

Xing Chen was stunned. Was she angry with him?

Yes, he could have held an umbrella for her yesterday, but he didn’t. He made ginger tea soup, but he didn’t bring it over to her.

He had deliberately distanced himself from her. No wonder she was angry. After all, she was also an arrogant girl.

He turned around and entered the kitchen. Xing Xiaoya and the village belle next door had also woken up. They walked out hand in hand, chatting and laughing.

Xing Xiaoya crossed her hands and shouted at Qiao An and the others, “Qiao An, this is Dr. Xie from our village. After dinner, she’ll check our bodies to see if we’ve been infected by the patients from the neighboring village. Since you’ve been running around for the past two days, you’re the focus of the investigation.”

Qiao An said tiredly, “I’m running a fever. Do you want to look at me first?”

When Xing Xiaoya heard this, she cried out in fear, “Ah, you’re already infected. Why didn’t you say so earlier? If you stay here, you’ll infect us too. Sister Xie, quickly send her to quarantine.”

Xiao Yue immediately became anxious. “She’s only been here for two days. How can she be infected so quickly? She caught a cold yesterday.”

Xie Cunhua immediately entered the room, put on a mask, and walked out with a tongue press and a stethoscope.

“Qiao An, I’ll check you.”

When Xing Chen heard the commotion outside, his heart was a mess. He immediately walked out.

When Xie Cunhua examined Qiao An, he asked her, “How’s your physique usually? Do you need to take medicine if you catch a cold?”

Qiao An snapped, “I’ve always been in poor health. If I catch a cold, it will definitely burn into pneumonia.” It was all because of him that she was feeling so terrible.

Xie Cunhua was a little stunned. She said to Xing Chen in a daze, “At the moment, it seems that she has a cold and fever. But since her constitution is so bad, the medical conditions here are not good. We can’t leave her here.”

Xing Chen looked at Qiao An. No one saw the heartache and self-reproach flowing in his eyes.

“What medicine did you bring?”

Qiao An looked at him. “Do you know medicine?”

Xie Cunhua smiled and said, “Brother Xing Chen is very talented in this aspect. As long as you guide him, his diagnosis will be very accurate.”

Qiao An said, “Medicine is a broad and profound knowledge. Someone who have never studied medicine can diagnose it more accurately than a professional doctor. Who would believe it?”

After a pause, she said, “Unless you were a medical student.”

Xing Chen fell into self-doubt.

At this moment, Xing Xiaoya’s expression was extremely unnatural. She shouted at Qiao An, “My family is poor. My father has two children. How can he have the money to support us to go to school? Brother Xing Chen didn’t go to university.”

Qiao An looked at her suspiciously. “He’s your adopted son? He doesn’t look like part of your family. He looks more like the young master of a rich family.”
