Chapter 9 Let Him Have It

Being lectured by Mrs. Li, Jiang Zhixun touched the tip of his nose awkwardly.

Trying to explain herself, "She wasn't listening."

The tone of blaming the child made Mrs. Li's mouth twitch.

I thought to myself, those who know the inside story will understand that they are a couple, while those who don’t will think that they are an elder teaching a child a lesson.

He faked a cough and said, "If you speak in a nicer tone, your wife will listen."

Jiang Zhixun felt even more uncomfortable when he heard her call him "daughter-in-law" all the time.

Since there were outsiders around, he didn't dare to ask about what happened on the train. He just stood by the bed, wanting to see how long Shen Qingqing could be stubborn.

Shen Qingqing had a fever, and it came and went.

I felt a little cold and curled up subconsciously.

She had originally thought that since Sister-in-law Li had arrived earlier than her, she would talk to Jiang Zhixun about the divorce after the other person finished the infusion and left the ward.

Unexpectedly, I fell asleep in a daze.

Jiang Zhixun looked at his watch several times. Mrs. Li from next door had already left, but Shen Qingqing had not yet come out from under the quilt.

He knocked on the table beside the bed and said, "Shen Qingqing, the story is not over yet. There is no point in running away!"

The air was silent and no one responded.

Jiang Zhixun's eyebrows were about to be knotted into a knot. He paused and lifted the quilt.

After seeing the situation under the quilt, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Shen Qingqing's cheeks were flushed with a sickly red, and she was having difficulty breathing. Because of the previous pulling, a few strands of hair were scattered.

It was clinging to her face and neck in a messy pattern.

Jiang Zhixun subconsciously looked at her hand receiving the IV. It was not swollen and no blood was returning. He felt inexplicably relieved.

Secure her hand where she was getting the IV drip to prevent her from accidentally getting it rubbed.

Then he covered the person with a blanket, covering everything except the face tightly.

Although he had no experience in taking care of others, Jiang Zhixun was able to take care of himself and did not disturb Shen Qingqing during the whole process.

After doing all this, he sat back in his chair.

His gaze had nowhere to rest, and before he knew it, it landed on the hospital bed.

This was the first time Jiang Zhixun saw Shen Qingqing so fragile.

I guessed that she might have been frightened on the train, didn't get enough rest, and was not used to the climate there, which is why she became so seriously ill.

The emotions provoked by Shen Qingqing slowly subsided.

Jiang Zhixun pinched his eyebrows.

He shouldn't be angry with Shen Qingqing.

As long as we reduce the chances of contact with her, she will see no hope and will naturally return to Beijing.

Suddenly, Jiang Zhixun thought of what his mother said on the phone.

divorce……

If Shen Qingqing wanted a divorce, he agreed.

If she doesn't want to divorce, then they can continue with the previous model and he will send her the allowance on time.

Jiang Zhixun no longer wanted to think about whether getting the marriage certificate was a conspiracy or not.

He has no plans to get married for the second time, and he doesn't have anyone he likes, so there is no such thing as delaying it.

As long as Shen Qingqing doesn't feel that she is being delayed, between them... let it be.

Jiang Zhixun stayed by the bed for a long time, until the infusion was finished and the needle was removed, then he patted Shen Qingqing on the shoulder.

"Wake up, go back to the guesthouse and sleep again."

Maybe it was because she was weak, or maybe it was because the medicine was taking effect, Shen Qingqing slept very soundly.

The man's voice reached her ears, and she woke up slowly.

In front of her was a cold and handsome face. The person she had thought about and dreamed about countless times appeared before her. Shen Qingqing blinked.

"Jiang Zhixun?"

Jiang Zhixun looked at her expressionlessly, "Did you fall asleep?"

Shen Qingqing's eyes gradually cleared up, and she quickly sat up and subconsciously touched her coat pocket. There was a small notebook and a pen in it, which she used to record important things at any time.

In case you forget suddenly and cause other troubles.

Jiang Zhixun looked at her suspiciously. "I never noticed you were so confused before. Are you still dizzy?"

Shen Qingqing bent down to put on her shoes and replied without looking up, "Then just think of me as dizzy."

Her tone was obviously calm, but for some reason, Jiang Zhixun felt that her words were sarcastic and hurtful.

He tilted his head, took a deep breath, and told himself again not to bother with the patient.

Shen Qingqing had already put on her shoes and was putting on her scarf.

She didn't say anything, and Jiang Zhixun felt something was wrong.

He rubbed his fingers and suddenly said, "Mom asked you to call her back."

Shen Qingqing paused as she tied her scarf.

She didn't mention the divorce to the Jiang family because she was afraid that the elders would object.

After all, there are very few divorced people around us, and it is difficult for the elders to accept this kind of thing.

But now she has come to the Northwest, and this matter cannot be concealed, so it is better to confront them.

Shen Qingqing took her things and left the ward first.

I went to the nurse's station to borrow a phone and dialed the number I had memorized.

Jiang Zhixun was standing not far away, holding a lunch box.

The weather was cold and the lunch box had become ice-cold. Shen Qingqing didn't even touch the steamed bun inside.

Jiang Zhixun suddenly felt like laughing.

He was really crazy. He was worried that Shen Qingqing was hungry and went out to buy her food.

She doesn't appreciate it at all!

A cold breeze blew behind her, and Shen Qingqing knew that Jiang Zhixun was looking at her.

But she didn't look back, nor was she interested in exploring Jiang Zhixun's mood.

Holding the phone receiver, waiting for a reply from Beijing.

Jiang's mother was worried about the couple's marriage and was waiting for Shen Qingqing's call back.

As soon as the phone rang, I picked it up immediately.

When he heard Shen Qingqing's voice, the stone in his heart moved a little.

"You were going to look for Zhixun, why didn't you tell us in advance? If I had known earlier, I would have gone to the train station to see you off and brought Zhixun some local specialties."

When Shen Qingqing came to the Northwest, she brought nothing but the daily necessities she needed.

She didn't plan to stay here for long and would leave once she was done.

Since they are about to get divorced, they naturally won't do anything that is thankless.

Shen Qingqing firmly believed that Jiang Zhixun would not eat a single bite of the specialties she brought.

"I decided to come at the last minute, so I didn't tell you."

Jiang's mother didn't dwell on the issue. "Zhixun hasn't been home for three years. It's a good opportunity for you to persuade him to come home for the New Year this year."

Shen Qingqing nodded.

She had no control over whether Jiang Zhixun would go home for the New Year, and she didn't have the energy to persuade him.

While he was considering his words in his mind, he casually responded to Jiang's mother.

On the other end of the phone, Jiang's mother cursed inwardly, wondering why these two people had such personalities.

Just love to treat people perfunctorily!
No wonder the relationship between husband and wife hasn’t improved after three years.

Unlike others, who quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed!

"Zhixun is worried that you won't be able to adapt to the environment there, so he has decided to apply for a transfer back to Beijing. You should be careful with what you say and do there, and don't cause any trouble that might affect his work."

The words Shen Qingqing was about to say were blocked.

Not hearing her speak, Jiang's mother continued to speak to herself: "Three years is long enough. The old man is old. Although he doesn't say it, he wants Zhixun to come back."

"Qingqing, considering that our family has raised you for several years, please give way to Zhixun this time, okay?"
