Chapter 294: Future Little Brother-in-law (3)
After speaking, Qiao Mo nodded in satisfaction, feeling that this approach seemed reasonable."A good-hearted person?" Fu Nancheng squinted his eyes at Qiao Mo, a trace of menace flashing in his gaze, his thin lips parting slightly, exuding a particularly cold aura.
The temperature in the room instantly dropped a few degrees; Qiao Mo felt an extremely chilling gaze upon her, making her inexplicably uneasy.
"Oh, then I really must thank this good-hearted person." Qiao Xuan, upon hearing this, laughed heartily, emphasizing the words "good-hearted person."
His gaze grew even colder, his whole aura like a cold abyss.
Qiao Mo shrank her head, not daring to look at him, only feeling as though he was about to devour her.
"Qiao Mo." He pushed out her name through gritted teeth.
Qiao Mo forced a smile as she looked at him, meeting his devouring gaze, and felt utterly tearless.
She truly didn’t know how to introduce him.
’Good-hearted person’ is at least a commendatory term?
Is it really necessary to be so angry over this...?
Qiao Xuan noticed his reaction and seemed intent on adding more fuel to the fire, immediately saying again, "Sis, why didn’t Jing Hao come?"
The mention of Jiang Jinghao made Qiao Mo’s heart tighten.
Perceiving a certain man’s gaze, she lowered her eyes and softly said, "He and I have broken up."
This time it was Qiao Xuan’s turn to be slightly startled, looking at Qiao Mo in disbelief, "Broke up? How could you break up?"
Qiao Mo smiled faintly at him, speaking softly, "If we’re not suitable, then we break up."
Qiao Xuan glanced at Fu Nancheng again and didn’t make another sound.
The siblings chatted a bit more before Qiao Mo finally stood up to leave.
Fortunately, there were caretakers in the hospital, and with Qin Zhaoran around, she wasn’t too worried.
Qin Zhaoran put a cast on Fu Nancheng’s leg, and Qiao Mo was careful to assist the whole time, but unfortunately, a certain man had a gloomy face throughout.
So, Qiao Mo quietly stood by without speaking further.
...
Back home, just after pushing him into the bedroom, Qiao Mo turned around intending to go downstairs: "I’ll go tell Nanny Wang and see if she can make some bone broth."
A pinch at her wrist, and an imbalance made her fall onto his lap.
Qiao Mo gasped, afraid of touching his injured leg: "Your leg is still hurt!"
Yet Fu Nancheng paid no mind, his hand gently pinching her chin, looking displeased: "The so-called good-hearted person who assisted with the surgery?"
Qiao Mo was already feeling a bit guilty, and now his questioning made her even more uneasy.
"Hmm?" His phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, with thick displeasure in his voice.
"I...I..."
Qiao Mo was at a loss for words; she truly didn’t know how to introduce him.
Should she say he’s a friend?
"Then...then how should I say it?" Qiao Mo sat on his lap, cautiously looking at him as she softly spoke.
His gaze was deep, his brows slightly furrowed, seeming very displeased with this.
"You know what I want to hear."
She was slightly stunned, looking at him in a daze.
What he wanted to hear...
His large hand deftly slid into his lapel: "Do you want me to remind you?"
Qiao Mo’s cheeks flushed slightly, and while he wasn’t paying attention, she quickly scampered off him, leaving the bedroom without looking back: "I’ll go see if the kitchen can make some bone broth..."
Fu Nancheng didn’t chase after her, instead turning around in his wheelchair.
Watching the woman’s fleeing figure but feeling somewhat irritated.
Although her attitude towards him seemed to have eased somewhat now.
He still didn’t know what this woman was truly thinking in her heart...
Qiao Mo ran all the way to the kitchen, and after telling the chef, she stood there dazed.
What he wanted to hear... what was it?
