Chapter 1276 - 1275: We’re Getting Married Next Month

~4 min read 705 words

Xia Shi was so angry she wanted to walk out right then!

But Zhai En let out a muffled groan, looking very much in pain, and she couldn’t bring herself to leave.

She couldn’t really leave him alone at the hospital, could she? What if his condition worsened in the middle of the night and he died?

"I’ll just hold you to sleep, I promise I won’t do anything. You see, with my injuries, I can’t do anything anyway."

Xia Shi lied with a cold face the whole time, grabbed a blanket, and lay down on another bed.

Even though two beds were put together, it didn’t necessarily mean they had to sleep together, right?

One person with one bed, one blanket each.

As it turned out, Zhai En had a pretty good constitution; he didn’t pass away that night.

The next morning, when Xia Shi woke up, she took the chance while the doctor was examining him to go out and buy breakfast.

She never expected to meet the last person she wanted to see, Qiao Yuchu, at the hospital entrance.

Qiao Yuchu was carrying a thermal container, probably intending to visit a patient.

The sudden encounter left Xia Shi momentarily stunned, while Qiao Yuchu slowly narrowed her eyes.

"Zhong Shixia, what are you doing here!"

Zhong Shixia glanced at the thermal container in her hand, her heart aching.

Who was she visiting? Was it Zhai En?

The man had been adamant about having nothing to do with Qiao Yuchu last night, yet here she was, visiting him this morning.

Heh!

Xia Shi didn’t want to engage with this woman.

Seeing Qiao Yuchu reminded her of those painful past experiences and her deceased child.

She wanted to avenge her child, yet she had nothing now. How could she ever shake Qiao Yuchu, this mountain?

Xia Shi walked forward without looking aside, unwilling to stir trouble, but someone refused to let her go.

"Zhong Shixia, are you here to see Zhai En?"

"It’s none of your business," Xia Shi replied coldly.

"None of my business?" Qiao Yuchu’s eyes were dismissive, "You’re tangled up with my fiancé, how could it not be my business? Zhong Shixia, have you no shame!

Zhai En and I are already engaged, and we’re getting married next month, yet you keep clinging to him! Shameless mistress!

What, do you still want to rekindle things with Zhai En? You should take a good look in the mirror and see how disgusting you look, a woman who goes out wearing a mask, daring to scare people, huh!

I’m warning you to stay away from my husband, or don’t blame me for sending you to join that bastard!"

Xia Shi’s face turned pale!

Qiao Yuchu’s words were like daggers, shredding her heart.

She suddenly turned and slapped Qiao Yuchu hard across the face.

The slap resounded clearly, "Who are you calling a bastard!"

In an instant, her eyes turned fierce with a murderous intent that Qiao Yuchu had never seen before.

For a moment, she was so intimidated she took a step back.

Realizing what happened, she felt annoyed. Damn it!

She had actually been scared by an ugly freak!

She wanted to regain her composure, but Xia Shi had already left.

Qiao Yuchu stamped her foot, feeling the stares of people around her, and could only grudgingly walk into the hospital.

Zhong Shixia, just wait!

Arriving at the ward entrance, she first touched up her makeup to cover the slap mark, then put on a smile and pushed the door open.

When she saw the two beds pushed together, her breathing hitched, a flash of hatred swept through her eyes.

But she quickly returned to normal.

Zhai En was already done with his examination, waiting for Xia Shi to bring him breakfast.

Hearing the door open, he thought Xia Shi had returned and looked up excitedly.

Seeing who it was, his face instantly darkened, "What are you doing here?"

Qiao Yuchu lifted the thermal container in her hand, smiling, "Zhai En, I came to check on you, how did you get so badly injured?"

"How did you know I was in the hospital?" Zhai En’s voice turned cold, looking nervously toward the door.
