Chapter 2297 - 2297: Twins
The doctor looked up and said, “Since you don’t plan to have the child, you have to cherish your body. The first step is to go over there and register. Then, we’ll check your body and see if you’re suitable to undergo surgery. Do it as soon as possible.”
“Thank you.” Xiao Qing took the list and went to register for a basic check-up.
“Your physical condition is alright. Let’s see if you can undergo surgery today or if you’ll have to make another appointment.”
Xiao Qing was not prepared today, and she was also very afraid. Just as she was thinking, she received a message on her phone. It was from Qiao Weiyang, wanting to confirm if she was the person she had just seen.
Xiao Qing panicked. [Where did you see me?]
[Over in the registration hall. Was that you? Are you sick? Or is your family member here? Do you need me to come over?]
Xiao Qing held her cell phone and replied after a long time: [I’ll wait for you at that spot just now. Can you come over?]
After replying, she said to the doctor, “I’ll do it in two days. Sorry to trouble you.”
When Qiao Weiyang received her message, she told the nurse to help take care of Grandpa when he came out later before walking over.
She felt Xiao Qing’s down mood before she even got close.
“What happened? Are you really sick?” Qiao Weiyang pulled Xiao Qing to a less crowded place and sat her down. She reached out to take her pulse and said hesitantly, “Do you… have a boyfriend? Why are you pregnant?”
“Shen Mubei,” Xiao Qing said in a low voice.
“He bullied you?” Anger immediately appeared on Qiao Weiyang’s cold face.
“No, no.” Xiao Qing pulled her back. “I was drunk at the jewelry event that night… It could be said that I hit it off with him. We both took the initiative.” Qiao Weiyang looked at her with heartache, not knowing what to say.
She knew too well what kind of feelings Xiao Qing had for Shen Mubei. If she was given an opportunity, it might really ignite a volcano.
But this was like a moth flying into a flame.
Xiao Qing immediately said, “It’s not his fault, nor mine. Anyway, I didn’t lose out.”
“It’s not a loss? Do you know how harmful surgery is to the body? You’ve suffered an incalculable loss.
Xiao Qing smiled bitterly, but she didn’t look regretful at all. “Ah, you know that I usually don’t even dare to take another look at him. But that day, I simply went all out. Anyway, I won’t regret it!”
Qiao Weiyang said softly, “Should I tell him?”
“No, no, no. I’ll choose a date to do the surgery,” she said. “Help me keep it a secret.”
“Then tell me when you’re undergoing surgery. I’ll accompany you.”
“Okay.” Xiao Qing nodded gently.
Qiao Weiyang wanted to accompany her grandfather in the afternoon, but seeing that she was a little distracted, Old Master Qiao urged her to go do her own things. He chased her away.
Qiao Weiyang was worried about Xiao Qing, so she reminded her on WeChat.
When Xiao Qing returned home, she was a little gloomy. As she changed her shoes, she said, “Mom, I’m back.”
“It’s good that you’re back. Mubei has been here for a long time. He’s been waiting for you,” Mrs. Xiao said with a smile.
“Huh?” Xiao Oing choked on her saliva and coughed uncontrollably-
“What’s wrong?” Mrs. Xiao asked as she apologized to Shen Mubei. “Don’t mind Qing Qing. She’s always like this.”
It was not easy for Xiao Qing to suppress her coughing. She did not dare to look in Shen Mubei’s direction. Ever since that incident, he had been lingering in her mind, but it was just a fantasy.
Now that his real person had appeared in front of her, the feeling was completely different.
“Why is he looking for me?”
Mrs. Xiao said, “You can talk amongst yourselves.”
Xiao Qing looked up and saw Shen Mubei walking toward her. He was handsome and always had a sense of alienation. If it weren’t for his enthusiasm that night, Xiao Qing would have thought that his cold attitude went down to his bones.
No, she immediately remembered that he had a girlfriend, Zhao Xinshu, who was quite popular in the entertainment industry. Everyone knew how much he doted on and indulged Zhao Xinshu.
As for her, she was just a mistress.
Xiao Qing did not think that Shen Mubei was looking for her for anything else other than that incident.
She glanced at the time on her phone and said, “I just remembered that I have an appointment with Uncle Liao’s son. Mom, I’ll go out first.”
With that, she put on her shoes again and left with her bag.
“This child! Mubei, I’m really sorry. If there’s anything you need, I can tell her.”
“Aunt, I’ll talk to Xiao Qing next time. It’s not very important,” Shen Mubei said calmly. “I’ll take my leave first.’
“Okay, take care.” Mrs. Xiao sent him out.
After Xiao Qing ran out, she found a place to stand and took out her phone. She mustered up her courage and typed a line of words: [Mr. Shen Mubei, I’m really, really sorry about what happened that night. I did something overboard when I was drunk. I know it was a big mistake that’ll affect you very badly, but let’s call it even. I don’t have to compensate you, and you don’t have to care about my feelings. Let’s leave it at that. In the future, let’s just be friends like usual and avoid embarrassing each other. Let bygones be bygones. There’s no need to reply. That’s all.]
After sending it, she heaved a long sigh of relief. She leaned against the wall and closed her eyes.
Shen Mubei took out his phone and clicked on the new message. Lines of words rushed into his eyes, making him frown continuously.
Did she… still hate him so much?
He stretched out his fingers and typed two words. He then thought for a moment before giving up. He pinched the space between his eyebrows. His fingers rubbed against his skin until it hurt. Then, he lowered his hand. Xiao Qing sent another message to her mother. [Mom, I’ll be back late.]
She was afraid of meeting Shen Mubei again.
After sending it, she remembered that she still had to undergo surgery soon and sent another message: [Also, I might have to go on a business trip in a few days. I might not be able to go home for a few days. I’m informing you in advance.]
Mrs. Xiao called. [What’s going on with your work? When are you going? Who are you going with?]
[I’ll tell you about it later. I’m not completely sure of the details yet.]
[Where are you going now? Are you going to look for Uncle Liao’s son?]
[Yes, I’m going to have dinner with him.] Xiao Qing didn’t want to say anything else, so she decided to lie to calm her mother down first..
