After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Qin Ce glanced at her faintly.

"Why aren't you afraid that I will worry?"

Qiao Xing choked.

Sure enough, what she saw in the hospital was all an illusion, and she knew that Qin Ce must not be so easy to talk to.

When we got home, Grandpa Qin was still awake. He was sitting in the living room with the TV on, but his mind was not on the TV, with a worried look on his face.

He didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't notice Qiao Xing and Qin Ce entering the door.

It was Qiao Xing who said, "Grandpa, we are back."

Grandpa Qin turned his head slowly and said, "Xingxing is back, why is it so late today?"

Qiao Xing could only lie, "The company had something to do temporarily, so it was delayed."

Normally, if Qiao Xing said this, Grandpa Qin would definitely give her a few words of advice.

No matter what kind of work is important, it is not as important as her own body. What's more, she is pregnant with a child now, so she won't do some things if she can.

But today Grandpa Qin just said oh and said nothing.

Then he turned his head again and sighed from time to time.

Qiao Xing and Qin Ce looked at each other. Qiao Xing walked over and asked, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Grandpa Qin sighed again, and Qiao Xing said anxiously, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you? If you feel uncomfortable, we will go to the hospital. Qin Ce and I will be worried if you do this."

Grandpa Qin said solemnly, "When I went out to play chess today, Lao Meng didn't come. Only then did I find out that he was seriously ill and had been receiving treatment in the hospital. The only thing Lao Meng cared about after he lived so long was his grandson. , But I don’t know if it was God’s intention. His grandson’s health was poor and he was hospitalized every three days. Lao Mengtou was always worried about him, so he never recovered from his illness. "

Qiao Xing breathed a sigh of relief. She thought Grandpa Qin was really not feeling well.

But at the same time, she felt very uncomfortable when she heard Grandpa Qin's words.

When people get old, what they miss most are the people around them. Mr. Meng and Grandpa Qin are about the same age, but they don't have many children, so he cherishes his only grandson especially.

Qiao Xing comforted Grandpa Qin softly, "Grandpa, don't worry, medical treatment is so advanced now, both Grandpa Meng and his grandson will be fine."

Grandpa Qin sighed deeply, "Lao Meng is too obsessed with his children. For most of his life, all his thoughts are on his sons and daughters. When he gets older, he starts to miss his grandchildren again. I think he This disease can’t be cured at all.”

Qiao Xing raised her eyes and glanced at Qin Ce, wanting him to say a few words to stop Grandpa Qin from getting too entangled in this matter.

Grandpa Qin's doctor had told him before that all his physical indicators were slowly declining and he had to maintain a good mood every day.

"Grandpa, it's getting late. It's time to rest. Don't you still want to go to the flower market tomorrow? I'll go with you." Qin Ce tried to divert Grandpa Qin's attention.

But Grandpa Qin said without interest, "If I don't go, there's no point in doing all that all day long."

He suddenly held Qiao Xing's hand and patted the back of her hand, "Xingxing, although I'm talking about Lao Mengtou, I'm not just like him. Xiao Ce, this kid, always has his own opinions on things. I said It doesn’t matter to him, but the matter between him and his father is always a concern for me.”

"And you, you are now pregnant with our Qin family's child. I know this is not easy, so grandpa hopes that you can give birth to this child safely, and I also hope that this child will be healthy until then. , even if I close my eyes, I have nothing to worry about.”

"Grandpa..." Qiao Xing's nose felt sore, "Don't keep saying things like this."

Grandpa Qin smiled and said with emotion, "When you get old, you don't have to think too much, but I don't have so many messy thoughts. The only thing I think about is that you and your child are safe, and you can live a good life with Xiao Ce. "

Qiao Xing nodded, "Grandpa, don't worry, we will all be fine."

Qiao Xing and Qin Ce comforted Grandpa Qin a few more words, and then Grandpa Qin got up and went back to his room to rest.

Qin Ce and Qiao Xing also returned to their bedrooms. Qiao Xing had mixed feelings in her heart and was a little absent-minded.

Qin Ce asked, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Xing said discouragedly, "I always thought that I could do a good job and wouldn't worry you, but in the end, I didn't do anything well."

Because of this, Qiao Xing felt ashamed when Grandpa Qin said those words.

"It's not that serious. Just take yourself seriously and don't worry me all the time."

Qiao Xing pursed her lips and asked, "Are you angry with me?"

Qin Ce sneered, "Could it be that if I'm angry, you won't go to the company again?"

"That's not what I meant..." Qiao Xing sighed, not knowing what to say.

She was afraid that Qin Ce would be unhappy, but he was really unhappy, and Qiao Xing herself was in a dilemma again, not knowing whether to listen to him or not.

Because she wanted Qin Ce to trust him, and she also wanted to prove to Qin Ce that she would handle those things well.

But every time it seems to be bad.

"Okay, stop thinking about it and go to sleep."

Qin Ce opened the quilt and got into bed, reaching out to hold her in his arms.

Qiao Xing listened to his breathing, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Qin Ce, I want to do things that make me relaxed. I don't want to keep myself stuck in one place. Can you understand?"

Qin Ce responded, "I understand."

Qiao Xing opened her mouth, but the words were stuck in her throat, and finally turned into a vague sigh.

She knew that what Qin Ce wanted was very simple, he just wanted her to be well.

But life has always been full of ups and downs, how can it be smooth sailing?

Regardless of whether she is pregnant or not, she will still face various problems.

What she wants is to move forward. No matter what happens, it is destined.

Only those things can keep her moving forward, teach her about life, and allow her to grow gradually.

Just like what happened today, she understands Qin Ce's worries, so she feels guilty about it.

But even if she doesn't go to the Big Bad Wolf starting tomorrow and raises her baby at home, what should happen will always happen.

Who knows if you won’t be scalded by the boiling water when pouring water, or if you will choke when eating.

For Qiao Xing, these things are the same as the problems encountered at work.

She didn't want to take precautions to avoid things that might not happen in the future just because she encountered a small problem.

But she couldn't tell Qin Ce these words.

Because from the perspective of a bystander, Qin Ce was not wrong.

It's because he cares about her that he gets angry and emotional about those things, and worries about what to do if he encounters such things in the future.

She wants Qin Ce to understand her, so why not Qin Ce? (End of chapter)
