Chapter 433: Am I Spoiling You Too Much (18)
Qiao Mo woke up to find her hands had already been untied.But she didn’t know whether it was because they had been tied for too long, or that she had struggled too hard.
So much so that her wrists were swollen like buns. Even a slight movement caused pain, and her hands felt limp and powerless.
The wedding dress on her body had long been torn beyond recognition. Qiao Mo slowly supported herself up, turning her head to glance around.
Not seeing his figure in the room, she lowered her gaze and leaned against the headboard for a long time.
A few minutes later, she slowly stood up, completely took off the wedding dress, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
But as soon as the dress slipped to her feet, she noticed a bloodstain on it, mixed with mottled off-white, leaving her stunned.
Qiao Mo limped into the bathroom, truly suspecting if every woman ended up in such a state afterward. She really couldn’t understand why some people considered it enjoyable.
In her view, such things were no different from torture. If it weren’t for the love she had for that man, she’d never want to try again.
Qiao Mo didn’t have the mind to think too much, quickly took a shower, and asked the hotel staff to bring her a set of clothes, then mustered the energy to call Jiang Jinghao.
The phone rang for a while, but no one answered. Qiao Mo’s heart tightened, recalling Aunt Feng’s reaction when leaving the church, a sense of foreboding grew within her.
Very quickly, Qiao Mo hung up the phone and instead called Xie Qinghuan.
"Xiao Mo, where did Fu Nancheng take you? I’ve been looking for you for ages but couldn’t find you!" Xie Qinghuan’s tone carried a trace of urgency. Seeing Fu Nancheng take her away earlier, she knew Qiao Mo was bound to suffer.
"The hotel," Qiao Mo spoke softly.
Xie Qinghuan was silent for a moment, unsure of what to say.
Qiao Mo changed the subject: "How’s Aunt Feng? I just called Jing Hao but he didn’t answer."
"At the Seventh Hospital, she was resuscitated when brought in but hasn’t woken up yet after being taken out. But...but from what the doctor said, even if she wakes up...it might be time to say the final goodbyes."
Qiao Mo was stunned for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "I’ll be right over."
Leaving the hotel in a rush, not caring about anything else, Qiao Mo limped as she hailed a cab.
Rushing all the way to the hospital, she stopped in front of the ward but suddenly felt a surge of fear. Her raised hand fell several times, suddenly lacking the courage.
Through the glass window on the ward door, Qiao Mo looked inside.
Many people were gathered around Aunt Feng’s hospital bed. She couldn’t see Aunt Feng, but she could see Jiang Jinghao and Qinghuan’s profiles.
Qiao Mo lowered her gaze, leaning against the wall beside the door.
A sense of guilt rose in her heart. Thinking about the incident at the wedding because of her made her heart ache.
She didn’t know if Aunt Feng had witnessed the whole process, and if she fainted because of it, she wouldn’t know how to face her and Jing Hao anymore.
Qiao Mo felt immensely uncomfortable. She originally wanted to fulfill one of Aunt Feng’s wishes before she passed away.
The day Jiang Jinghao asked to meet her, he wanted to ask for her help.
It was because Aunt Feng’s days were numbered, but she always kept talking about her, Jiang Jinghao feared she wouldn’t be able to handle it, so he didn’t say it directly, but he implied the fact that they had broken up.
Since knowing, Aunt Feng kept mentioning it every day, always thinking it was him who wronged her. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ N0veI.Fiɾe.net
Most often, she would say, "Xiao Mo is such a good child... Jing Hao, it must be you who wronged her."
Sometimes in a daze between waking and sleeping, as soon as she opened her eyes, she would always ask, "Has Xiao Mo come? Is she done with her work?"
