Ling Tianyi looked so painful in the hospital in the following two days. Xia Xiaoluo didn’t know whether he was really painful, so she didn’t dare to leave for fear that Ling Tianyi’s injury would be injected. She was afraid to see that Ling Tianyi had something terrible.
Xia Xiaoluo and Ling Tianyi’s relationship became significantly better these days. Xia Xiaoluo even made jokes about Ling Tianyi. Ling Tianyi wanted to stay in the hospital for a longer time to develop their relationship.
“When do you want to give my IOU back?” Xia Xiaoluo asked Ling Tianyi when she was peeling an apple.
“What? What do you mean? Are you kidding me? You didn’t return the money to me. I won’t give you that. I am not a fool.” Ling Tianyi joked deliberately. He didn’t want to accept Xia Xiaoluo’s money. All he wanted was to improve their relationship by chatting with her like this.
“I returned it to you but you didn’t know it.” Xia Xiaoluo murmured.
“Now you are telling a lie. Your nose will become longer, like Pinocchio.” Ling Tianyi said.
“Humph! You said that you would treat me with the milk tea that day, but you left first without paying for the bill. When I was about to leave, the waiter stopped me and told me that we hadn’t paid for the bill yet. The little food cost me one thousand yuan. I had no choice but to pay for it with the money that I planned to pay you back. You said that it was your treat. So you also borrowed one thousand yuan from me. You lent me one thousand yuan. I lent you one thousand yuan. In a word, I returned your money in another way.” Xia Xiaoluo was unhappy when she thought of the bill. It was too expensive!
“Then it’s your treat.” Ling Tianyi began to tease Xia Xiaoluo. He liked to tease her.
“You forced me to go to the western restaurant and you ordered the expensive food. It’s not my treat!” Xia Xiaoluo was anxious. She couldn’t live if Ling Tianyi asked for another one thousand yuan from her.
“But who ate those things? I didn’t eat them even one bite.” Ling Tianyi said leisurely.
“You…You…” Xia Xiaoluo was too angry to say a word.
Ling Tianyi was afraid to annoy Xia Xiaoluo and make her really angry. He just wanted to tease her as a way of improving their relationship. But if he really made Xia Xiaoluo angry, it would be worse.
“Well. I just made a joke with you. Who am I? I am the richest man in A City. I don’t care about one thousand yuan. You underestimate your husband.” Ling Tianyi said with a smile. He put his arms around Xia Xiaoluo’s shoulders. “Darling, my money is your money. I will give you as much as you want.”
“You are not my husband!” Xia Xiaoluo pouted her lips.
“It’s my fault. I’m wrong. When I leave the hospital, I will give you the IOU first, OK?” Ling Tianyi wanted to make Xia Xiaoluo happy, so he behaved with a humble attitude.
“We have no relationship after you give me that.” Xia Xiaoluo said angrily.
“There is no way that we are apart, instead, we always are in each other’s heart.” Ling Tianyi said and kissed Xia Xiaoluo’s lips.
“Ah! Sorry. I didn’t see anything.” The nurse who came in at that time ran away with shyness.
“You are a nuisance!” Xia Xiaoluo was shy as well.
Xia Xiaoluo was taking care of Ling Tianyi these days in the hospital as Ling Tianyi’s relative. What’s more, she has come to St. Mary’s Private Hospital many times due to injury and illness. Ling Tianyi accompanied her here every time. All the staff in the hospital regarded Xia Xiaoluo as Ling Tianyi’s wife although they didn’t hear any news about their marriage.
Qiao Anna knew something about Ling Tianyi. But she dared not to appear in front of Ling Tianyi aimlessly. She was afraid that Ling Tianyi would know her premeditation, so she just paid attention to the situation in the hospital secretly.
Qiao Anna knew that the relationship between Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo was not good. Moreover, after what happened that night, Qiao Anna investigated them secretly, so she knew that Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo were at the edge of breaking up.
Qiao Anna wanted to go to R Country with Ling Tianyi. Then they could enjoy themselves. But now that she thought that Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo would get together again. She couldn’t wait anymore. If she did nothing, Xia Xiaoluo would come back to Ling Tianyi’s side when Ling Tianyi left the hospital. She would have no chance at that time.
Qiao Anna made up her mind and did some arrangements. She wore a pair of sunglasses and pretended to meet them unexpectedly when Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo went out for a walk.
“Yi, what a coincidence!” Qiao Anna said hello to Ling Tianyi actively, with a low voice, pretending to be in a bad mood.
“Hello. I told you that I was injured. I have to be here for a few days and I will leave the hospital a few days later. I will arrange that thing. Don’t worry!” Ling Tianyi said. He felt guilty when he saw Qiao Anna.
Xia Xiaoluo remembered what had happened when she saw Qiao Anna last time. She felt unhappy and she wanted to leave. But Ling Tianyi held her, not letting her go.
Qiao Anna also felt envious when she saw Ling Tianyi and Xia Xiaoluo’s intimate behaviors. She was eager to break them up. But she controlled her mood. She wanted to break them up by tricks, not by brute force.
After a few polite words, Qiao Anna wanted to leave. But she almost fell down because she lost her balance, the report in her hands dropped, on Ling Tianyi’s foot.
Ling Tianyi picked the report up. At a glance, he was shocked and he frowned.
“It’s okay. Give it to me.” Qiao Anna took the report and was about to leave.
“Wait a minute.” Ling Tianyi called Qiao Anna.
He didn’t hold Xia Xiaoluo this time, instead, he went to Qiao Anna directly. He had to confirm it by himself.
Xia Xiaoluo got rid of Ling Tianyi at this moment. She didn’t want to meet Qiao Anna. She didn’t want to see Ling Tianyi rushing to Qiao Anna to talk to her, either.
“Anna, what does the diagnosis mean?” Ling Tianyi asked seriously.
“Yi, I don’t want to go to R Country. And I won’t pester you anymore. I will go home to have a rest.” Qiao Anna said. She walked slowly, pretending to leave.
“Tell me the truth.” Ling Tianyi stopped Qiao Anna, “What’s going on?”
With tears rolling in her eyes, Qiao Anna said with a grievance: “Yi, I am pregnant.”
Although Ling Tianyi had guessed this result just now, he couldn’t accept it when Qiao Anna spoke it out directly. He could solve this problem by doing a repair operation for Qiao Anna and giving her some profits before. But now Qiao Anna was pregnant. He was in big trouble.
“Yi, I didn’t want to tell you this at the beginning. I know you can’t marry me. I know you love Xiaoluo and Xiaoluo loves you. I don’t want to be a third party and choose an unhappy marriage. But I am so scared. I don’t know what to do. The doctor said that it was difficult for me to have another child anymore if I had a miscarriage this time.” Qiao Anna couldn’t help crying at this time.
“I don’t want to give up the happiness of being a mother. But I don’t want to be an unmarried mother. What should I do?” Qiao Anna said. She squatted on the ground and burst into tears.
Ling Tianyi felt really guilty for Qiao Anna. If he hadn’t met Xia Xiaoluo, he would marry Qiao Anna for things happened. He had to be responsible for Qiao Anna. Because Qiao Anna hadn’t done anything annoying to him. Maybe because Qiao Anna hid her thoughts well, even Ling Tianyi, who was also an experienced businessman, did not find Qiao Anna’s intention.
“Anna, I’m sorry! It is too serious. I have to think about it. But I won’t let you alone, I won’t avoid the problem either. Give me some time. I will think about how to arrange all the things well. Trust me, please.” Ling Tianyi said seriously. He didn’t know how to deal with it now because it was all of a sudden.
“Let it go. Yi, it’s impossible for you to marry me and I won’t marry a man who doesn’t love me. This is an insoluble problem.” Qiao Anna said. She wiped her tears from her cheeks, but she still looked like a poor, pitiful little woman.
“Anna, you are in a bad mood. I will ask my driver to take you home. Don’t think about anything. I’ll arrange all the things.” Ling Tianyi called his private driver. He asked him to take Anna home safely.
Ling Tianyi came back to the ward effeminately. Everything was in his mind, but he could not make it clear.
“You are back.” Xia Xiaoluo said with embarrassment. Although she didn’t hear what they talked about, she felt upset in her heart without rhyme or reason.
“Xiaoluo, I think…I can leave the hospital now. I have to deal with some problems.” Ling Tianyi said reluctantly. He would like to stay with Xia Xiaoluo for a longer time, but Qiao Anna’s matter was urgent. He had to deal with it carefully. The best consequence was that it did not hurt Qiao Anna nor Xia Xiaoluo.
“What’s the matter with Qiao Anna?” Xia Xiaoluo asked suddenly.
“She just…just had a stomachache, so she came to the hospital.” Ling Tianyi dared not to tell Xia Xiaoluo the truth. He was afraid that Xia Xiaoluo couldn’t accept it and he would lose her.
“Oh. I will clear up this room now.” Xia Xiaoluo said, and then she went to clear up.
“Xiaoluo!” Ling Tianyi said suddenly, and his expression was miserable.
“What?” Xia Xiaoluo raised her head and asked.
“Xiaoluo, I love you. Can you promise me one thing?” Ling Tianyi asked nervously.
“What? I won’t do anything bad.” Xia Xiaoluo answered casually.
“Of course, I won’t ask you to do bad things!” Ling Tianyi shrugged his shoulders. “I want you to believe me no matter what happens. I love you. I really love you. Don’t leave me, OK?”
“What’s the matter?” Xia Xiaoluo asked.
“Um…Just believe me. No matter what happens, don’t leave me. Promise me or I’ll be anxious.” Ling Tianyi said.
“But we have no relationship with each other now. We are not a couple. We are just friends.” Xia Xiaoluo said sadly. She was thinking about it these days. Once Ling Tianyi left the hospital, she had to leave him.
Ling Tianyi embraced Xia Xiaoluo suddenly. “Xiaoluo, promise me. Please don’t leave me. I beg you. I will do anything you want me to do. Don’t leave me. I beg you, OK?”
“I will think about it.” Xia Xiaoluo wanted to push Ling Tianyi away, but she had no strength. In fact, she liked Ling Tianyi’s hug and was reluctant to leave him.
