CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce
Chapter 117. Headache

Chapter 117: 117. Headache

During her time in the United States, every time she heard Mo Mo mention her ex-boyfriend, she could feel the sadness deep in Mo Mo’s heart, knowing clearly that she couldn’t let him go.

She didn’t know what had happened between them, but it was indeed... not something she, an outsider, could meddle in.

After hesitating for a moment, she nodded, "I understand."

Seeing her agree, Lu Moqing’s face finally got a bit better, but the next second, his face changed again.

Qiao Xu was opening the bedroom door to leave, guessing what she was going to do, his face suddenly darkened, displeasedly saying, "Where are you going in the middle of the night?"

"Going home."

"Qiao Xu!"

Lu Moqing said sternly, his slender legs stepping forward in front of Qiao Xu, "This is your home! Where are you going?"

Qiao Xu didn’t want to argue with him about whether they were divorced or not. Talking about it would lead nowhere. She simply said directly, "Going to my parents’ house!"

Lu Moqing was both amused and annoyed by her, but had no choice but to patiently continue, "Why go back to your parents’ house in the middle of the night? Go back tomorrow."

"My family will worry about me."

Qiao Xu still had a stern face, her voice cold and hard.

"I have already called mom."

The "mom" Lu Moqing mentioned naturally referred to his mother-in-law, Lin Jingshu.

This was the first time Qiao Xu had heard Lu Moqing call Lin Jingshu "mom". In the past, he rarely saw Lin Jingshu, and on the few occasions he did, he just called her "aunt". Lin Jingshu was annoyed, but as long as her daughter liked him, she wouldn’t mind.

Now, as Qiao Xu was getting a divorce, it was ironic and funny to hear Lu Moqing call her "mom".

Lu Moqing was somewhat nervous at this moment, worried that Qiao Xu would refuse to stay. Though he always seemed to be determined in his words, he knew that Qiao Xu was not someone who would easily compromise in front of him.

Seeing that she remained silent, her face changing expressions as if she was pondering something, he worried that she would refuse, and added, "You can sleep in this room, I’ll go sleep in the guest room."

Unimaginably, Lu Moqing would actually concede like this. Qiao Xu looked at him with a faint glance, and finally gave a deep "Mhm", turning around to go back to the room.

When Qiao Xu returned to her room and lay down on the bed, her head was actually still hurting badly. She hadn’t realized it during her argument with Lu Moqing, but now that she had quieted down, she felt a throbbing pain at her temples, making it impossible for her to sleep.

Lu Moqing didn’t immediately go to the study. Seeing she was still frowning and rubbing her temples, he thought of something and furrowed his brows.

"Headache?"

His voice was very deep and low, with a hint of worry. This made Qiao Xu pause in massaging her temples and respond with a "Mhm".

Lu Moqing didn’t say more and turned to go to the study next door.

Qiao Xu didn’t pay attention, turning over to lie down. But her head still hurt intensely, her temples throbbing, making it impossible for her to sleep.

Footsteps were heard from behind, and Qiao Xu, who had been living here for three years since her marriage, was naturally familiar with the bedroom. The study connected to the bedroom had always been Lu Moqing’s working place. But after getting married, Lu Moqing rarely came back, so the study had been left empty.

Now, with Lu Moqing moving between the bedroom and study, Qiao Xu didn’t think much about it, only assuming he was still working.
