CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce

Chapter 214: 214. There are no three hundred taels of silver here

Qiao Xu didn’t want to talk too much with Lu Moqing, considering that just a few hours ago, this man had taken her son away from her. Even though he had personally brought her to the hospital, she couldn’t feel grateful towards him.

"Does President Lu want me to say, ’Please stay and accompany me?’"

Qiao Xu’s eyes held a hint of sarcasm when she asked that, and Lu Moqing was momentarily unsure of how to respond.

A voice within him told him that he wanted to stay with her, but on what grounds?

It was because he was her ex-husband, so he had the responsibility and obligation to stay and take care of her?

However, her current attitude probably meant that she didn’t want him to stay at all.

Suddenly, Lu Moqing began to dislike the term "ex-husband," for it made him feel increasingly passive in many matters.

As expected, Qiao Xu’s following words struck a nerve with him.

"Even before our official divorce, with your esteemed status, Mr. Lu, you wouldn’t have had any obligation to stay here and take care of me, right?"

When she was sober, her gaze was cold and firm, and even though she was smiling when speaking to him, her detached attitude made her seem even more distant.

Lu Moqing became increasingly annoyed, especially when he realized that his emotions were easily stirred by this woman in front of him. His irritation intensified.

"Since you don’t need it, I won’t interfere."

He left the ward with those cold words, closing the door behind him.

The lingering sound of the door closing weighed heavily on Qiao Xu’s heart.

Qiao Xu turned her head and quietly looked at the closed door, her expression lost and melancholic.

After a moment, she withdrew her gaze, suppressing the bitterness rising in her heart, and looked out of the window at the dark night.

The quiet night was suffocating and only magnified the loneliness and melancholy in people’s hearts. Qiao Xu stared blankly, sighing silently.

After sitting for a while, she lay down on the bed again, covering her eyes with her hand, suppressing the sour feelings that surged within her.

She had drunk quite a bit tonight and didn’t even know how she ended up in the hospital. She vaguely remembered that after leaving with Mo Mo, their car seemed to have an accident, but what happened after that?

Thinking of the current unknown situation of Xia Yumo, she suddenly sat up, feeling a severe vertigo from the abrupt motion.

After a brief recovery, she prepared to call Xia Yumo, only to find that her mobile phone was not with her.

Furrowing her brow, Qiao Xu hurriedly got out of the bed and walked out the room. When she opened the door and saw the tall man leaning against it, she was startled, a hint of surprise flickering in her eyes.

Why was Lu Moqing still here?

Hadn’t he left ten minutes ago?

Similarly, Lu Moqing didn’t expect Qiao Xu to open the door suddenly. Their gazes collided, and both felt a twinge of guilt.

Facing Qiao Xu’s surprised gaze, Lu Moqing’s expression was a bit uneasy. He rubbed his nose, his face stern, and said, "I’m not staying here for you."

After saying that, he couldn’t help but frown, feeling that his excuse made him seem guiltier, and his face became even more uncomfortable.
