CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce
Chapter 1270. I think I’m quite capable.

Chapter 1270: 1270. I think I’m quite capable.

Hearing the movement in the bedroom, she hurriedly ran out of the bathroom.

Seeing her sitting on the bed, breathing heavily, with cold sweat on her forehead, it was clear that she had had another nightmare.

He furrowed his eyebrows, walked to Qiao Xu’s side and sat down, "Another nightmare?"

Qiao Xu slowly came to her senses, looking at Lu Moqing’s worried eyebrows and the bruise under his eyes, she felt both guilt and distress.

She reached out to touch his cheek, and with a hoarse voice, she said:

"You’ve worked hard these past few days."

She had actually grown used to being independent, to solving everything by herself without relying on anyone else.

But since remarrying Lu Moqing, she had grown accustomed to his indulgence, unconditional tolerance, and care, gradually getting used to relying on him.

Looking at Lu Moqing’s slightly thinner cheeks, she forced a smile from the corner of her mouth -

"This thing called habit is really scary."

Before Lu Moqing could react to her sudden remark, she continued:

"Actually, I think I’m pretty capable. But why is it that when I’m in front of you, I want you to solve everything?"

Lu Moqing, hearing these words, was stunned for a moment. Then he laughed, raised his hand, and playfully flicked her nose, saying:

"Of course, my wife is very capable, but I still like it when you depend on me for everything. That way, I feel like I have a purpose."

As he spoke, he pulled Qiao Xu into his embrace, his face gently buried in her shoulder, and his low voice ensued -

"Only then can I confidently live off my wife."

Qiao Xu laughed at his words, lifting some of the gloominess that had weighed on her heart for the past few days.

They used to joke about Lu Moqing living off her, but if there really was someone who unconditionally loved her like this, even if it meant living off her, she would like it too.

She lifted her head from his embrace and said:

"You should go back to work tomorrow, and I’ll go to the company as well. I haven’t been there for a long time, and there are so many matters waiting for me to handle."

Lu Moqing initially wanted her to rest at home for a few more days, but Qiao Xu preemptively shut him down -

"Our people are already searching for my mom day and night. It’s no use for me to wallow in self-pity at home. Besides, staying at home and not doing anything will just make my mind wander."

Thinking about it, Lu Moqing agreed.

So he acquiesced.

In fact, Qiao Xu could not concentrate on work at the moment, but if she stayed at home, she knew that Lu Moqing would not stop worrying about her.

Although many tasks from the company could be brought home, some were inconvenient to handle here.

If she went to work at the company, Lu Moqing would naturally feel at ease to return to his work as well.

"Now lie down and sleep. I have some things to take care of, and after I finish, I’ll come and keep you company. Get some rest, so we’ll have the energy for work tomorrow."

"Hmm."

Qiao Xu obediently lay on the bed as Lu Moqing kissed her forehead before heading to the study.

Qiao Xu lay quietly in the bed. As soon as she closed her eyes, she saw a sea of blood before her, frightening her into opening her eyes again.

Her hands hidden beneath the duvet clenched tightly, her arms still trembling.

First thing the next morning, Qiao Xu got up.

After washing up, she applied light, delicate makeup to make her face appear healthier.
