Chapter 11: Admitting Her Mistake

Ten minutes later, Qiao Xi pushed open the door of the ward.

Xu Mei rushed into the ward at once, and Mr. Qiao was a step behind her. His scrutinizing gaze landed on Qiao Xi. “You didn’t do anything to your sister, did you?”

“Are you worried? If you’re worried, go take a look at her yourself.”

Qiao Xi’s brows were slightly raised, and her tone could not conceal her delight. “Don’t worry, even murderers have the chance to surrender themselves to the police. I won’t beat all of you to death in one go.” It was merely a simple sentence.

Her words were hard to understand, and Mr. Qiao frowned unhappily. “It’s just been a day since we haven’t seen each other but why are you speaking like this? Also, what’s with the marriage you mentioned on the phone…”

Qiao Xi revealed a meaningful smile. “You’ll find out in the future.”

With that, she ignored Mr. Qiao’s probing gaze and pressed the button for the elevator. She was ready to get a ride home.

“Qiao Xi!”

At this moment, a man’s voice suddenly sounded behind her.

The elevator stopped for some reason and did not arrive on her floor for a long time. Qiao Xi turned around helplessly. “What?”

Gu Moling said unhappily, “What’s with your attitude?”

“What kind of attitude do I have?”

“Qiao Xi!”

Gu Moling could not help but raise his voice. “Why did you become like this?! Look at you now, you don’t look like you’re the Qiao family’s eldest daughter at all. You speak with such hostility as though someone owes you money. You have to know that you caused Rou Rou to miscarry. We weren’t the ones who let you down!”

Qiao Xi stretched out a finger. “Don’t speak too soon. Go take a look at Qiao Rou, then you’ll know how stupid you were just now.”

“What do you mean?”

Ding!

The elevator door opened and Qiao Xi walked in. Before the door closed, she suddenly looked at Gu Moling thoughtfully. “Actually, the truth doesn’t matter to you, right? You just care about who brings you more benefits.”

Did Gu Moling really like Qiao Rou, then?

Not necessarily.

In the ward, when Xu Mei entered and saw Qiao Rou crying, her first reaction was that Qiao Xi had bullied her daughter!

She turned around and was about to look for Qiao Xi to settle the score when she bumped into Mr. Qiao, who just entered.

Mr. Qiao pushed her away angrily. “Why are you in such a rush?!”

“Qiao Xi bullied Rou Rou! Look at her, she’s crying!”

“Mom, it’s not like that. Sister didn’t bully me… I’m just too sad…”

Qiao Rou’s eyes turned red. She struggled to get down from the bed and knelt in front of Mr. Qiao and Xu Mei. “I’m sorry, Dad and Mom. I lied to you…”

While Mr. Qiao and Xu Mei were confused, Gu Moling pushed the door open.

When he saw the scene in the ward, he frowned in dissatisfaction. “Rou Rou, why aren’t you resting on the bed after your surgery? Why are you kneeling on the floor?”
