Was this retribution? Giving her the retribution for hiding her identity and cheating on the marriage; was it fated? What wasn't her could never belong to her. However, why did he want her to leave in such a state? Was it due to her greed?

He had been lying on the bed, very tired. He didn't want to get up, and instead of thinking about what had happened last night, he wanted to be alone and quiet.

Ling Qiao sat on the sofa and opened his eyes until daybreak. He thought over and over again for an entire night, connecting the people and matters that he had never dared to doubt with each other.

He washed the cereal and knocked lightly on the door.

As he expected, no one answered, so he gently turned the lock and opened the door to enter. "I made some oatmeal," he said.

Ling Qiao walked over to the bedside and placed the cereal on the bedside table. He turned around and said, "I'm not hungry …" When he opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse.

Ling Qiao felt that something was wrong, and reached out to touch her forehead. "You have a fever."

ShuShu opened his palm, closed her eyes and did not say anything.

Ling Qiao decisively took her clothes from the closet, and then lifted Shu Shu to carry his, "Put on some clothes, and go to the hospital."

Shu Shu blankly stood at his side, looking at him with dull eyes. He had also become a lot more haggard. Her chin was covered in black stubble, but he still made her infatuated with him. "Why would you do that?" she asked.

Ling Qiao stared into her eyes, neither evading nor evading. He said seriously, "If I say that I was too careless and fell into her trap, would you believe me? "I don't have any evidence, and I'm not trying to find excuses for my mistakes. Give me some more time, and I'll give you an explanation."

Shu Shu asked, "Weren't you two always together?"

"It's not a problem. Did Tang Qingqing tell you so?"

"Yes."

Ling Qiao tightly held onto her shoulder as he said, "I used to say that you were narrow-minded and that you were suspicious. I'm sorry, if I had listened to you, things wouldn't have come to this."

ShuShu's tears rolled down her cheeks. "Why did you have to wait until something happened before you were willing to believe me? What have you been doing for so long?" Her throat was inflamed and she was too hoarse to speak.

Ling Qiao felt both remorse and heartache as he silently said, "Come, let's go to the hospital …"

Sitting in the car, leaning against the back, Shu Shu looked at Ling Qiao's focused profile. He was concentrating on driving, occasionally turning her head to look at her, her heart filled with worry. The bright morning sun shone on his face. No matter how loud the world outside was, he was always calm in handling everything. Even if he was out of line, even if he had done something that betrayed her marriage, he was as calm as ever.

Shu Shu's heart throbbed with pain. This kind of man, there were many women scrambling to climb onto his bed. Before, there was Osha, but now there was Tang Siqing. In the future, there might be someone else.

At the intersection, the red light stopped, and an old couple walked past on the sidewalk. They both had heads full of silver threads, and their steps were unsteady. The old granny seemed to have a bad eye, so the old grandpa kept holding her hand, talking while they walked.

Shu Shu's heart ached. She really wanted to be with Ling Qiao from the start until the end of her life if she was careless. She did not need to go through all these heartbreaking pains and pains.

This illness was extremely violent. Her body temperature shot up to 39 degrees. No wonder she didn't say anything and just obediently relied on Ling Qiao.

"Doctor, my wife has been sweating, but she says it's too cold to lower her body temperature. Think of something."

"CEO Ling, don't worry, we've already used the antipyretic drug. Whether it's effective or not, we'll need time to take a look in half an hour. If you don't stop her, we'll give her the antipyretic needle."

"Alright!"

When Ling Qiao returned to the ward, he held onto Shu's hand tightly. Seeing how pale she was and how his lips were cracked, he felt extremely pained.

She had not been feeling very well all this time. After Shu Ning's death, she also had a serious illness, which caused her to feel very weak. She must have caught a cold after staying in the kitchen for the better part of the night.

At this moment, his phone suddenly rang. Ling Qiao walked to the window and picked up the phone, "Hello?"

"It's me …" Tang Thirty-Six hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to call her. "Qiao, is Shu well?"

He didn't pay attention to his phone as he picked it up. The moment he heard Tang Shuiqing's greeting, his anger rose up, but his reason told him that he needed to be calm before things were clear. "It's okay, it's fine."

"That's good, Qiao Qiao, she called you last night. I called you but you didn't wake up, so I helped you pick it up. I didn't do it on purpose, I …"

Ling Qiao interrupted her, "I will give you an explanation for what happened last night. You don't need to remind me, and again, Qingqing, I'm in a mess right now. Let me calm down." With that, he hung up the phone. He was afraid that he would be unable to hold back and shout out. He should have known earlier that there was a problem with Deng Zijun, and there was also a problem with this Tang Qingqing.

Tang Thirty-Six silently put down the phone. She couldn't guess what Ling Qiao was thinking, but this first step was a victory for her.

Shu Shu was still suffering from the fever. Her brows were tightly knitted together and her face was pale. She had been in a constant nightmare, yet she could not wake up. Ling Qiao asked the nurse as he placed an ice pack on her forehead. He then carefully took out a cotton swab and applied warm water to her cracked lips.

The nurses whispered privately, saying that they really couldn't believe that the CEO Ling Qiao whose name was unknown was actually such a devoted person. They had never seen a husband who was so considerate to his wife.

Shu Shu slept all the way until nightfall. Her fever had finally subsided and it was as if her entire body had been sucked dry.

Slowly opening his eyes, he saw Ling Qiao sitting by the bed, dozing off. His appearance became more and more dejected. She reached out his hand to move his arm, and he was jolted awake.

"Wife, you're awake …" Ling Qiao reached out and touched her forehead, smiling as he said, "It's alright, it's not that hot. Are you hungry? Mother told the servant to boil some porridge, it's still warm. Do you want to drink some? "

ShuShu didn't say anything. She just stared at him blankly. He was in a state of confusion. He shook the bed and picked up the bowl again.

ShuShu turned to look outside the window. Although there was a bright street light, it was still night. "It's dark." she said absently.

Ling Qiao fed her the congee mouthful by mouthful, looking at him in a comfortable manner. His eyes were bloodshot, and his handsome facial features had turned haggard and worried. She couldn't stand to see his tears drop every night. He couldn't believe that his husband, who loved her so much, would sleep with another woman.

Ling Qiao's heart ached. At this moment, he no longer knew what to say. After all, what Shu Shu saw was something she could not explain. Catching someone red-handed was the truth.

"Don't cry. If you see me sad, I'll ask the nurse to come in and take care of you. I'll go out." Ling Qiao put down the bowl and stood up to turn around.

She cried and said, "Hubby, tell me, what you saw was not true. It must have been done by Tang and Qing. I already said that she had evil intentions, and that she wanted to use your guilt towards her to destroy us. I already said that …"

Ling Qiao held her ice-cold hand and slowly turned around, "Wife, you have to believe me. I still don't know what's going on in this matter. Ever since we got married, I've only been friends, just friends." Ling Qiao sat down, recalling his memories as he spoke. "I was having dinner with two clients, and Tang Zeqing was celebrating the opening of the dance lessons. Everyone knew each other, so they all sat in a private room."

"When I received your message saying that you had arrived home, I took the chance to slip away and drink a few drinks with them before leaving. I remember that I let Zi Jun drive me home, but when I woke up, I found myself lying beside Tang Shuqing in the hotel. I was so scared that I wanted to leave immediately. My first thought was to never let you know that I've let you down, and I'm sorry too. "

"Who knew that you would open the door and enter …" I checked my cell phone. You called me and picked it up, and I think it must have been picked up again. I don't know what she said to you, but I can guess. "My wife, would you still believe me if I said that I was designed?"

"Zi Jun and Zi Qing, these two are people I have always trusted a lot. However, I have no choice but to doubt them regarding this matter. I questioned Zi Jun, but he didn't even dare to answer my question. My wife, I was too careless and hurt you. I have always felt that you were jealous because you were petty, but it turns out that I was wrong. I have always been so confident, so confident that I would not even know that I was tricked by the people around me. "

Wife, don't leave me at this time, or else we'll fall into their trap. Wife, even if you're angry, even if you don't forgive me, I, Ling Qiao, will never let you go in this lifetime. You're my wife, legal wife.

Ling Qiao's words were very clear. He knew that at this time, only by recounting everything that had happened would he be able to calm his heart. She was not a stupid person. Her logic, her thinking, her ability to bear, were all stronger than ordinary people.

Her voice was hoarse. "I called you, and it was Tang Congqing who answered. She said you were taking a bath, and she was the one who wanted me to go to the hotel, and she said you had been carrying me on your back all this time. She didn't want to lie to me now so she told me, do you know how much my heart hurts? "I've just lost my mother and child, and now I'm going to lose you again. I …"

"Shh …" Ling Qiao gently pressed his thumb on her lips, saying lovingly, "I know, I know, my wife, she is lying to you, I only love you, I swear."

His heart turned cold, and an enormous cold feeling surrounded him in an instant. He didn't dare to doubt Tang Congee, so it turned out that she was really plotting to destroy the couple.

But, what could he do about Tang Qing? A favor greater than the heavens weighed heavily on his shoulders, and what could he do because she loved him too much?

Hot, scalding tears flowed down her face. A woman really was made of water, otherwise how could there be endless tears? Shu Shu said hoarsely, "Give me some time, I still feel very uncomfortable …" I want to get some sleep. "

"Alright, no need to rush. I will accompany you. Time can prove it."

Ling Qiao rolled down the bed and carefully covered her with the quilt.

If it really was a divorce, then she really would only have one person left in the future with no one to rely on. If it really was Tang Siqing's scheme, then she would use the time to expose her. She wasn't stupid enough to give up her husband.

The night was peaceful and Ling Qiao was extremely tired. He leaned against the bed and gradually fell asleep. ShuShu stretched out his hand to slowly stroke his gaunt face. Was it her luck to be his wife? Was it really her bad luck?
