The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Qiao Ning was very touched, but she didn’t want to trouble her.

However, Hai Xiaotang was insistent. All Qiao Ning could do was express her gratitude even more.

Hai Xiaotang took care of her by getting her some water, then said, “Rest well, I’ll go out and buy some food for you.”

“But I’m not hungry…”

“I didn’t have dinner either, so we can eat together. Even though you’re not hungry, it’s good to eat something. It’ll help you recover faster.” Hai Xiaotang tried to persuade her.

Qiao Ning nodded with a smile, “Alright, thank you Xiaotang.”

Hai Xiaotang chuckled, “You’re too polite; we’re best friends after all, there’s no need to be so formal.”

“Regardless, I’m really grateful to you.”

“If you really want to thank me, then you should rest and stop worrying about everything.”

“Alright!” Qiao Ning nodded laboriously. She didn’t want to think about her problems any longer because every time she did, she felt an uncontrollable bitterness in her heart.

Hai Xiaotang went out to buy some essentials and food from a nearby store.

On her way back, she suddenly bumped into Lin Xinxin who was lying unconscious on a hospital bed and being pushed into the ward!

Dongfang Yu and Chai Xiyang were following behind her…

Seeing them, Hai Xiaotang was taken aback.

Dongfang Yu was also surprised to see her.

“What are you doing here?” He quickly approached and questioned her with a suspicious look.

Chai Xiyang also noticed her. He just nodded before entering the ward.

Hai Xiaotang glanced into the ward. She saw Lin Xinxin unconscious, and Chai Xiyang was talking to the doctor.

The doctor stated, “Don’t worry, the patient is no longer in a life-threatening condition. There’s no major issue with her health. She should be fine after a few days of good rest.”

Chai Xiyang nodded, “Alright, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” The doctor finished speaking and then left.

Her wrist was suddenly grabbed by Dongfang Yu, “I asked what you’re doing here?”

Looking into his deep eyes, Hai Xiaotang fired back a question instead, “What happened to Lin Xinxin?”

Dongfang Yu unemotionally stated, “She tried to commit suicide by taking sleeping pills, but Chai Xiyang found out in time.”

Commit suicide?

Hai Xiaotang was slightly surprised. Lin Xinxin tried to commit suicide?

In her view, Lin Xinxin had always been smart and mentally robust. Why would she try to kill herself?

“What on earth happened?” She asked, puzzled.

“It’s not clear yet, we’re still investigating.” Dongfang Yu turned the conversation back, “You haven’t answered, why are you here?”

Hai Xiaotang unconsciously wanted to retort, and why are you here?

However, she held back in the nick of time!

Whether Dongfang Yu was here or not, it had nothing to do with her.

“Who’s sick? Grandpa? Or someone else?” Dongfang Yu asked again.

Breaking free from his grasp, Hai Xiaotang looked at Chai Xiyang who was approaching and said, “Qiao Ning is sick.”

Chai Xiyang paused slightly, but his expression didn’t change.

Hai Xiaotang continued, staring at him, “She had a high fever up to 40 degrees, yet no one was looking after her. If 1 hadn’t brought her to the hospital in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable.”

Chai Xiyang knew that Hai Xiaotang was deliberately telling him this.

It was a fact that Qiao Ning was sick and he hadn’t taken care of her.

While he didn’t know her condition was so severe, he genuinely didn’t want to be concerned about Qiao Ning’s wellbeing.

As if he didn’t hear what Hai Xiaotang said, Chai Xiyang just smiled and greeted her, “It’s been a while, sister-in-law.”

“I’m not your sister-in-law, I’ve divorced Dongfang Yu!”

Having said that, Hai Xiaotang walked away, brushing past Dongfang Yu.

Dongfang Yu instinctively grabbed her, and Hai Xiaotang also instinctively struggled, “Don’t touch me!”

The man instantly tightened his grip on her arm—
