Chapter 150
Xia Qiqi went downstairs with an unhappy mood to get some water to drink.
She was too excited last night and drank quite a bit at the banquet after Nie Ziming's sudden proposal. She didn't get drunk but was thirsty after drinking wine.
If she wasn't thirsty, she wouldn't have bumped into Xiao Nanchen.
She really didn't want to see him at all at the moment.
Luckily, when they parted last night, Nie Ziming said he had already picked a wedding date on the 22nd of next month. He said the double two represented a pair, so it was auspicious for them to get married that day.
Of course she readily agreed.
That meant starting the night of the 22nd next month, she would never have to live under the same roof as Xiao Nanchen again!
...
Upstairs.
Xiao Nanchen had just returned to his room.
There was a knock at his door.
He opened it, not expecting it to be Xia Qiqi of course, nor could it possibly be Xia Qiqi.
He looked at Xiao Qiang standing at the door, a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, "Mom, why aren't you asleep so late?"
She seemed to have also received the news and knew Ye Jinghuai had been in a car accident.
"He's not in mortal danger, just minor fractures. He's staying in the hospital for two days for observation in case of concussion. If there's none, he can be discharged," Xiao Nanchen explained.
"What exactly happened?" Xiao Qiang couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing much, just a car accident," Xiao Nanchen said.
"Nanchen," Xiao Qiang's face sank.
"Yes, it was for An Nuan," Xiao Nanchen also knew he couldn't hide it.
Xiao Qiang was still somewhat shocked.
"Mom, cousin knows his own limits. Don't worry too much. Since it's a woman cousin was willing to risk his life to save, this woman must be worth saving in cousin's eyes," Xiao Nanchen spoke up for An Nuan.
"Of course I know that," Xiao Qiang said directly, "Do you think I'm like those stubborn old folks, just forcing Jinghuai to do things? If Jinghuai really likes An Nuan, I would certainly support them being together."
"Mm," Xiao Nanchen nodded lightly.
He very much agreed with his mother's viewpoint.
"What about you?" Xiao Qiang pointed the spear at him again, "Xia Qiqi got proposed to tonight, how do you feel?" Discover new chapters at novelhall.com
Often, his mother actually wouldn't take the initiative to care about him, and was even rather cold to him.
But which parents don't care for their own child?
"I'm fine," Xiao Nanchen's expression didn't change.
Xiao Qiang's eyes were clearly scrutinizing him.
"Don't worry, your son isn't lovesick enough to be suicidal yet. I'm not as fragile as you think. Since I chose to come back, I was prepared for everything," Xiao Nanchen explained.
Xiao Qiang sighed helplessly.
She said, "Xia Qiqi really isn't good enough for you."
Xiao Nanchen didn't respond.
She got out of bed and went over to help support him upright.
She was just trying to be helpful.
Besides, Ye Jinghuai was injured because of her.
"The doctor didn't put in a catheter for you?" An Nuan bent down to support him and said at the same time.
In that moment she saw Ye Jinghuai's expression was strange.
She followed his gaze and glanced down at her own chest.
"Ah!" An Nuan immediately let go of Ye Jinghuai and covered her chest area.
Really!
Decades of propriety were completely wasted in front of Ye Jinghuai.
"What are you looking at!" An Nuan's back was to Ye Jinghuai, she was about to explode.
When the accident happened, they had left the banquet.
At the time they were both still wearing formal attire.
Last night they were delayed at the hospital for hours, and it was inconvenient there to shower and change clothes, so she didn't think to change out of her formal gown. Waking up now, the already quite revealing formal dress had fallen even lower, and a deep, deep ravine was clearly visible...
So Ye Jinghuai had gotten a full view just now.
"Nice view," Ye Jinghuai's voice clearly still held laughter.
She was furious.
This guy was even commenting!
What's there to comment?!
An Nuan huffed and puffed to the wardrobe in the hospital room, and found a set of patient clothing. Pondering that these clothes were definitely more modest than what she had on, she didn't even think before rushing into the bathroom. Looking in the mirror, not only was her clothing indecent, her makeup was also a smudged mess from not having removed it.
How was Ye Jinghuai not scared to death!
She simply took a shower directly.
She completely forgot that Ye Jinghuai had wanted to go to the bathroom.
When she came out refreshed, she saw Ye Jinghuai's whole face looked like he was about to turn blue from holding it in.
It seemed he could erupt any minute.
An Nuan couldn't help laughing out loud.
This is called retribution.
If he had been more gentlemanly and reminded her that her clothes were improper, she wouldn't have been so embarrassed that she directly went to take a shower. At most she would have just tidied up her formal dress a bit.
She went in front of Ye Jinghuai and said bluntly, "Did you pee? Or do you want me to call the nurse to help change your bedsheets?"
Ye Jinghuai just looked at An Nuan like this.
He said, "Feel it and you'll know."
"..."
Men really are dogs!
They should all be called male chauvinist dogs!
