159 Silent Pain (2)

The faint morning light shone in faintly, Shu Shu's eyelashes flickered, and she slowly opened her eyes. Her tears had dried up, her dry throat was stinging, and she had no strength. She knew that she was sick.

He reached out and touched the side, but Ling Qiao was not there. After he put her to bed last night, she kept crying and asked him to go out, so he went out.

After crying and thinking all night, the thing she feared most finally happened. Just when she relaxed her guard and thought it wouldn't happen, it suddenly happened.

Shu Shu pulled the quilt and hugged her body tightly. Happiness is indeed a fleeting thing. No matter how tight she holds it, it will slip through her fingers. First she lost her mother, and then she lost her child.

Then there was her husband's betrayal, and all of this seemed like a joke played by God on her.

Do you want to say that this is retribution? Retribution for hiding her identity and cheating on the marriage; do you want to say that this is destined? Things that are not hers can never belong to her. But, why should she leave with such scars? It was her

Is it caused by greed?

I have been lying in bed, very tired, I don't want to get up, I don't want to think about what happened last night, I just want to be alone and quietly.

Ling Qiao kept his eyes open on the sofa until dawn, thinking over and over again all night long, connecting some people and things that he never dared to doubt.

He made some cereal and knocked gently on the door of the room.

As he expected, no one answered inside, so he gently turned the door lock, opened the door and went in. "I made some cereal. Let's drink some."

Ling Qiao walked to the bed and put the cereal on the bedside table. Shu Shu turned her back and said, "I'm not hungry..." When she opened her mouth, her voice was hoarse.

Ling Qiao felt something was wrong and reached out to touch her forehead, "You have a fever."

Shu Shu opened his palm, closed her eyes and said nothing.

Ling Qiao decisively took her clothes from the closet, then lifted the quilt and hugged Shu Shu, "Get dressed and go to the hospital."

Shu Shu let him manipulate him dully, looking at him with dull eyes. He was also much haggard, and his chin was covered with black stubble. However, he still fascinated her. "Why do you do this?"

she asked.

Ling Qiao stared into her eyes, neither evading nor evading. He said seriously: "If I said that I was too careless and fell into the trap, would you believe it? I have no evidence, and I am not committing the crime for myself.

Make excuses for your mistakes, give me more time, and I will give you an explanation."

Shu Shu asked: "Aren't you always together?"

"It's nothing, is that what Tang Youqing told you?"

"Um."

Ling Qiao held her shoulders tightly and said, "I used to say that you were petty and suspicious. I'm sorry. If I had listened to you, things wouldn't have come to this."

Shu Shu burst into tears, "Why do you have to wait until something happens before you believe me? Why did you go there so early?" Her throat was inflamed and she was so hoarse that she could not speak.

Ling Qiao felt regretful and distressed, and said silently: "Let's go to the hospital..."

Sitting in the car, leaning on the backrest, Shu Shu turned her head and looked at Ling Qiao's focused profile. He was driving the car attentively. From time to time, he would turn his head to look at her, his eyes full of worry. The bright sunshine in the morning

When it shines on his face, no matter how loud the hustle and bustle outside is, he always handles everything calmly and calmly. Even if he has an affair or betrays his marriage, he remains as calm as ever.

Shu Shu's heart throbbed. There were many men like this, and women were vying to climb into his bed. In the past, there was Osha, and now there is Tang Youqing, and in the future, there may be others.

At the intersection, the red light stopped, and an old couple passed by on the sidewalk. They were covered in silver hair and walked unsteadily. The pedestrians around them also gave way to them. The old woman seemed to have bad eyesight, so the old man kept holding her hand.

As he walked, he kept saying something.

Shu Shu felt sad, how she wanted to accidentally grow old with Ling Qiao without having to experience so much sadness and pain.

The illness was so severe that her body temperature soared to 39 degrees Celsius. No wonder she didn't say or do anything and just clung to Ling Qiao obediently.

"Doctor, my wife has been sweating, but she says she is cold and her body temperature cannot come down. Please think of a solution."

"President Ling, don't worry, the antipyretic medicine has been used. Whether the medicine is effective or not will take time. We'll see in half an hour. If the fever doesn't go away, give her another antipyretic injection."

"good!"

Ling Qiao returned to the ward and held Shu Shu's hand tightly. Seeing her pale face and chapped lips, he felt very distressed.

She had never been in good health. After Shu Ning's death, she also suffered a serious illness. Her subsequent miscarriage made her even weaker. She must have caught a cold after squatting in the kitchen for most of the night last night.

At this time, the cell phone suddenly rang. Ling Qiao walked to the window sill and answered the phone, "Hello?"

"It's me..." Tang Youqing hesitated for a long time and finally decided to call, "Qiao, is Shu Shu okay?"

Ling Qiao was in a daze and picked up the phone without paying attention. When he heard it was Tang Youqing's greeting, he was furious, but his reason told him that he needed to calm down before the matter was found out.

OK, it’s okay.”

"That's good, Qiao, she called you last night. You didn't even wake up when I called you, so I picked it up for you. I didn't mean it, I..."

Ling Qiao interrupted her, "I will give you an explanation of what happened last night. You don't have to remind me. You Qing, I'm in a mess right now. Let me be quiet." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

He was afraid that he couldn't help but yell. He should have thought that Deng Zijun had a problem, and Tang Youqing also had a problem.

Tang Youqing put down the phone silently. She couldn't guess Ling Qiao's thoughts, but she took the first step successfully.

Shu Shu still had a high fever, her brows were furrowed, her face was pale, and she was confused from the fever. She kept having nightmares but could not wake up. Ling Qiao asked the nurse to put an ice pack on her forehead, and then carefully took a cotton swab.

, dipped in warm water and applied it on her chapped lips.

The nurses whispered among themselves, saying that they really couldn't believe that the famous CEO Ling Qiao turned out to be such a dedicated person. They had never seen a husband be so considerate to his wife.

Shu Shu slept well into the night. The high fever finally subsided, and her whole body seemed to be drained dry.

Slowly opening her eyes, she saw Ling Qiao sitting on the edge of the bed and taking a nap. He looked more and more decadent. She reached out and moved his arm, and he suddenly woke up.

"Honey, you're awake..." Ling Qiao reached out and touched her forehead and said with a smile, "Fortunately, I don't feel so hot anymore. Are you hungry? Mom asked the servant to cook porridge and bring it over. It's still hot.

Do you want to drink some?"

Shu Shu didn't speak, just stared at him blankly. He was busy shaking the bed and holding the bowl.
