The bereavement boss, he is crooked behind my back

Chapter 268 I can be a widow, but I cannot be a widow!

*
The doorbell outside the house rang suddenly.

Once, twice, three times, no rush.

The middle-aged man in a black tunic hurriedly closed the door of a bedroom and hurried down the spiral staircase.

Ten seconds later, he turned the dark golden doorknob and opened the door.

Facing the visitor who rang the bell, he bowed slightly and smiled politely: "Miss Zhou, it turned out that you are here, why didn't you notify me earlier."

Zhou Qingyun nodded back: "Long time no see, Steward Song. I'm afraid that you will prepare a lot of things if I inform you in advance, and I will feel bad about it. Besides, you should be very worried about Xie Ji's health now, so I shouldn't bother you."

"Miss Zhou has always been considerate of us servants." He moved aside to allow her to come in and change her shoes.

He looked sad at the side again: "Ji'er is seriously ill this time, and he is still communicating with his private doctor."

"Doctor Xu is here too?" Zhou Qingyun changed into a cloth mop, lightly stepped on the spotless cork floor, and pointed to the second floor, "Then is it convenient for me to go up now?"

"It should be possible. They seem to have almost finished talking before I came out."

"Well, then I'll try it." She pursed her lips and smiled, revealing a virtuousness that was completely opposite to her temperament.

Steward Song led the way from the side: "If they have a dispute, I hope Miss Zhou can persuade Ji'er more. Sometimes he is too stubborn."

"Okay," she said, she was already standing in front of the bedroom, and knocked on the door actively, "Xie Ji, it's me."

"Come in." The voice from inside was obviously lacking in energy, feeling exhausted.

Zhou Qingyun couldn't help but frowned, but the moment she opened the door, she came back naturally, complaining slightly, "You have been sick for several days, so why didn't you tell me, if your driver hadn't slipped your mouth, I would have I don't know yet."

"It's not that serious, it's just a sudden rush of qi and blood, and it will be better if you rest more." Xie Ji's lips were pale, and there were many folders scattered in his hand, which could be seen that he was still working while sick.

"Then I'll go first." The man standing by the bed said.

"I'll see you off, Dr. Xu." Zhou Qingyun answered immediately.

Xie Ji looked at her, as if he didn't want her to do this.

But before he could open his mouth, he was gagged by Butler Song who came in.

I just heard him start to mutter: "I said don't work, don't work, aren't you wasting medicine? You, if this goes on..."

Zhou Qingyun took this opportunity to close the bedroom door, and she finally showed a worried expression when she went down to the first floor, "Doctor Xu, what's wrong with Xie Ji? It doesn't look like the situation is optimistic at all."

Xu Qing hesitated for a moment: "Xie Ji won't let me disclose his condition, so I'm sorry Miss Zhou, I can't tell you."

"It's okay, then can you tell me that his illness was dragged out, I observed that he has been coughing for a while."

Seeing that her tone was a little anxious, Xu Qing thought that after all these two people had been talking for so many years, they still had some affection, so her jaw finally loosened a little, "Yes, I'm sick from overwork."

"Didn't he pay attention to using medicines for recuperation? Minor ailments will eventually become serious if left untreated. I don't believe Xie Ji doesn't understand this truth."

"No matter how much you pay attention to the use of drugs for recuperation, it is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. Xie Ji has never been relaxed for a moment. Although it is mainly about work, but——" Xu Qing paused, "There should be some emotional ones too. Things, add up to a heavy mental burden on him."

Zhou Qingyun fell silent unexpectedly.

Even a private doctor like Xu Qing has observed Xie Ji's emotional problems, so one can imagine how tired and powerless Xie Ji is recently.

"...Why is he so anxious this time?" When she spoke again, she changed the subject directly.

At this time, he had changed his shoes and picked up his small toolbox. After a short thought, he said, "You should know something about his family background, including the previous relationship between him and his parents."

"Well," she nodded, "I heard it's not very intimate."

Xu Qing couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Not only is it not very close, but it's almost the same as having no family relationship. This time Xie Ji didn't want to be forced into marriage by them, and wanted to have a normal development with you, so he quarreled with them, and finally got angry. Wang couldn't catch his breath and passed out."

"You mean, Xie Ji fainted in a quarrel with them?"

"Yes, let's send it here. Miss Zhou, I hope you can take the time to persuade him later, let him stop carrying work. Before you want to fight for a breath, your body is the most important thing."

Zhou Qingyun watched him leave in response, her gaze gradually sank.

Unexpectedly, Xie Ji paid so much attention to the bottom line issue. He would rather tear up his face with his family or even faint from anger than agree to marry her.

So what should I do now?If this forced marriage plan continues, Xie Ji's condition will only get worse.

After thinking about it, she took out her mobile phone to speed dial while there was no one around.

There was a busy sound over there for a while before someone came out.

"Yo sister-in-law, are you here to ask the teacher?" Xie Shu's conversations with her were always so teasing that it was easy to suffocate.

Zhou Qingyun closed her eyes, then opened them, and adjusted her mood, "I just want to ask you about the situation of Xie Ji's confrontation with you now."

"Now? Isn't he already sick to bed, what else can he do to confront us?" He muffled a laugh.

"Thank you!" She said in a more serious tone, "You have to understand, I can be a widow, but I can never be a widow!"

"Oh, oh, I'm just joking, look, sister-in-law, you are in a hurry." Xie Shu's voice was like a 3D sound, running around her ear, "The current situation, it is my parents He already knew of Bai Shu's existence and threatened my brother with it, if he is sensible, he should know that his arms can't twist his thighs."

"So Xie Ji hasn't made a final statement yet?" She pressed on.

"Yeah, isn't it because he fainted early? I thought it would be done in one night, but I didn't expect my brother to be so frustrating. Tsk, I have to send him some high-end supplements some other day. Otherwise, if Without him supporting me, how much pressure will I have in the future."

Zhou Qingyun almost sneered, but still held back: "Okay, I get it, that's it, hang up."

"Oh, sister-in-law, you are really heartless." He suddenly said this.

She squeezed the phone tightly, her bright eyes turned slightly and her voice softened: "My good brother, after the matter is completed, you will naturally feel my friendship."
