I know Qiao Ximo must not be in the mood to eat right now, but no matter what, I must eat.

"I'll feed you." Chi Yeche said, picking up some food and putting it to Qiao Ximo's mouth.

"I told you I won't eat!" Qiao Ximo knocked the chopsticks and food in Chi Yeche's hands to the ground.

"I don't want to see you! Can you just leave me alone!? Get out! Get out!"

After hearing Qiao Ximo's words, Chi Yeche stood up and said, "You will sleep here today. If you don't want to go to school tomorrow, you won't go. I will help your mother handle the funeral." After Chi Yeche said that, he turned and left the room.

.

Qiao Ximo turned over and buried her head tightly in the pillow.

What her mother said before she died kept swirling in her mind.

Is mom saying she hates her?

It must be like this, she disappoints her mother so much, her mother must hate her...

I have always been my mother's pride and hope, but I have shattered her mother's hopes. My mother must have given up on me...

After crying for too long, Qiao Ximo's mind was all messed up, and Qiao Ximo lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Outside the door of the ward, Chi Yeche sat blankly on a chair nearby, smoking one cigarette after another.

Even though smoking was not allowed in the hospital, no one dared to step forward to stop him. After all, Chi Yeche's current expression made no one dare to approach him.

When Qiao Ximo woke up, it was already noon the next day.

He turned over and got out of bed and left the ward. As soon as he opened the door, he was greeted by Fang Ye's face. Fang Ye seemed to have been waiting outside, but Chi Yeche was nowhere to be seen.

She obviously asked him to leave, but when she woke up and didn't see him, Qiao Ximo felt inexplicably sad.

He really... didn't care about her feelings at all, right?

Seeing Qiao Ximo's haggard look, Fang Ye couldn't help but frown in distress. He and Qiao Ximo have known each other for so long. Qiao Ximo can be said to be the person Fang Ye has the deepest friendship with except Chi Yeche.

, "Miss Qiao, there is no resurrection after death, I hope you won't be sad anymore." Fang Ye comforted Qiao Ximo in a low voice.

Qiao Ximo chuckled coldly: "That's because you have never lost a parent, so you comfort me like this."

Fang Ye pursed his lips tightly, raised his eyes to Qiao Ximo, and said with a sincere look: "I have only told my husband about this once. When I was six years old, my father ran away with a rich woman, and my mother took care of him.

I sold it to a family, and I escaped from that family and went back for five days and five nights.

When I arrived at my home, the first thing my mother said when she saw me was, 'I don't want you anymore. Why are you coming back?' Although I have not experienced life and death like Miss Qiao, if possible, I would rather have my relatives.

You left me because of illness, not abandoned me."

Fang Ye's narration made Qiao Ximo silent. Perhaps compared with Fang Ye's experience, she might be much happier than him. At least she and her mother had lived happily together for eighteen years, and at least her mother did not abandon him.

But Qiao Ximo still couldn't help but feel heartache and blame herself. Her mother's death was all because of her...

In Fang Ye's words, Qiao Ximo would rather be abandoned by her mother and cut off the relationship between mother and daughter than to have her mother pass away because of him. Even if her mother doesn't recognize her, as long as she knows that her mother is alive somewhere,

Qiao Ximo can also feel at ease.

"Miss Qiao, memories will only hinder the progress, and you still have a long way to go in your life. Although I know that you must be very sad to have lost your most important relative now, I hope you can let go. If you continue to be decadent,

Your mother will not be at ease in heaven either."

Memories will only hinder the progress...

But how can people forget what happened so easily?

"Memories will only hinder progress. Did Chi Yeche tell you this?"

Unexpectedly, Qiao Ximo would guess it. Fang Ye was slightly startled and did not answer.

But with Fang Ye's reaction, Qiao Ximo knew the answer.

If she hadn't guessed wrong, this sentence... was probably what Xu Ruoning said to Chi Yeche, right?

"It's easy to say that. He hasn't gotten over the memories left by that woman named Ruoning yet."

Fang Ye stared at Qiao Ximo and said sincerely: "No, sir has already walked out."

Because he met Miss Qiao, Mr. Qiao has now come out of the shadows.

"Really?" Qiao Ximo tugged at the corners of her lips.

But it has been more than ten years since that woman left Chi Yeche, right? Qiao Ximo believes that time can definitely dilute everything, but it just takes a little longer...

"Miss Qiao, are you going to school today?"

Qiao Ximo shook his head gently.

Now that she goes to school in this state, Tang Xiaorui will definitely be worried about her if she sees her.

"I want to calm down. Can I go back to my home?"

Fang Ye looked at Qiao Ximo steadily. Although this was not something he could decide, he nodded, because even if the husband was here and saw Miss Qiao like this, she would agree to whatever Miss Qiao said.

Fang Ye sent Qiao Ximo to her original home based on the address given by Qiao Ximo.

Although he already knew that Qiao Ximo was not Qiao Qingqing and that her mother had divorced Qiao Daye a long time ago, Fang Ye was still surprised when he saw Qiao Ximo's living environment.

It must have been difficult for Miss Qiao's mother to raise her up, right? She raised Miss Qiao and educated her so well. She must be a great mother, and she must love Miss Qiao very much.

"Then I'll go in first." Qiao Ximo said and turned around to enter the house.

"Miss Qiao, remember to eat, and..." Fang Ye paused and said, "Don't do stupid things. Although Miss Qiao, your mother is gone, there are still many people who care about you, including Mr.

, including me, including Aunt Li, including the young master, and Miss Qiao and your friends."

Qiao Ximo turned his head and smiled gratefully at Fang Ye. "Thank you, I won't do anything stupid."

If it were in the past, if her mother left her like this, she would leave with her mother without hesitation, because there is nothing in this world that she misses.

But now...it's different...

She met many people, besides her mother, there were many people who cared about her and loved her.

Tang Xiaorui, who has always defended herself and said that she is her best friend; Jun Haochen, who is as gentle as the moon and stays by his side; Aunt Li, who takes care of her as her own daughter; who doesn't speak much but can feel it.
