Chapter 554: Chapter 554 Lend You My Shoulder_1

Shi Qian didn’t expect to be suddenly pushed away.

She was completely leaning on Bo Jingyan, without any defenses, she was pushed away abruptly and tumbled awkwardly to the ground.

But she didn’t care about the sharp pain emanating from her knees and palms.

She couldn’t let Bo Jingyan chase after Xia Qingtian, she couldn’t allow them to reconcile.

"Brother Jingyan..." Shi Qian, without the strength to stand up, lying on the ground called out, "Mother Bo is still waiting for us, she is not in good health, she cannot be upset, do not make her angry!"

Hearing these words, Bo Jingyan suddenly felt cold all over and instantly sobered up.

Yes, he can’t upset Mother Bo anymore!

Realizing this, he did not continue to chase after Xia Qingtian.

He turned around with a gloomy expression, helped Shi Qian up from the ground, and warned her coldly, "Don’t talk nonsense in front of her!"

Shi Qian felt greatly satisfied when she saw that she had indeed called him back.

This time, Xia Qingtian, I won!

And I will keep on winning!

Although she was overly proud in her heart, she still maintained an innocent facade in front of Bo Jingyan, "Don’t worry, Brother Jingyan, I won’t. After all, I also hope that Mother Bo gets better."

And that, in fact, was the truth.

Mother Bo was now her backing and amulet, she hoped more than anyone for Mother Bo’s well-being; She didn’t want to lose her.

Having warned Shi Qian, Bo Jingyan inadvertently looked back, wanting to look for Xia Qingtian, but he couldn’t find her.

He could only tell himself in his heart to be patient a little longer.

The explanation to Xia Qingtian would have to wait until after he had taken care of Mother Bo’s matters.

With this in mind, he and Shi Qian made their way towards Mother Bo’s sickroom.

...

Kia Qingtian had been really resolute just now, but after walking for a while, she unconsciously slowed down her pace until she heard footsteps behind her, and then her facial expression relaxed a bit.

She specifically found a quiet, lesser crowded area to stop and look at the person following her.

When she saw clearly who the person was, her eyes filled with disappointment.

It was Huo Qilin!

Just then she assumed that the one following her was Bo Jingyan giving chase.

Xia Qingtian could no longer control her emotions and cried out, "Why is it you? Where is Bo Jingyan?"

"He has gone off with Shi Qian, he didn’t chase after you!" Huo Qilin sighed and replied.

Xia Qingtian instantly felt as though her soul had been sucked out as she leaned against the wall behind her, looking quite lost and didn’t utter a word for a long time.

Although she wasn’t crying, Huo Qilin felt that she might break out into tears at any moment.

He graciously stepped forward and offered, "If you want to cry, you can lean on my shoulder!"

As he spoke, he willingly patted his shoulder, looking very dependable.

"Go away, I’m not that fragile!" Xia Qingtian slightly hit the back of his hand, followed by a playful scolding, "I do, indeed, love Bo Jingyan a lot and I never thought he would treat me this way. Before he lost his memory, and even after, we’ve been through a lot together."

As she reached this part of her sentence, she paused.

Seeing Xia Qingtian in this state, Huo Qilin was filled with compassion and longed to tell her not to be sad. He wanted to replace Bo Jingyan in her heart and protect her.

However, in the end, his rationality prevailed.

He knew that Xia Qingtian considered him as a friend; a colleague, even a brother. She didn’t regard him as a man, a partner.

In addition, her feelings for Bo Jingyan were quite intense.

If he confessed his love now, it would not only fail but would also add to her worries.

He did not want to make things difficult for Xia Qingtian.

So Huo Qilin said nothing, he maintained his position as a friend and silently listened to her feelings.

Xia Qingtian didn’t really need him to say anything. Right now, she just wanted to vent her emotions and needed someone to listen to her.

She was silent for a while, her emotions calmed a bit, and then she continued, "I never thought we would end up like this. I feel terrible, but it’s still bearable."

"His behavior towards me now is quite good anyways. We’ve already filed for a divorce at the civil affairs bureau. As soon as the cooling-off period comes to an end, we can get divorced once and for all without any further relationship."

"Isn’t it better than if we had reconciled and then this happened, after I had invested myself heart and soul again in this relationship, right?" She paused unsure if the question was meant for Huo Qilin or herself.

However, none of this mattered anymore.

After expressing herself, Xia Qingtian felt a little less miserable.

She took a deep breath, revived her spirit, and said to Huo Qilin, "Let’s go."

Huo Qilin looked at her nervously, "Where to?"

He worried that she might not be thinking straight and do something foolish.

Xia Qingtian could tell what he was thinking and immediately found it amusing, "Of course, back to the ward. Weren’t you the one who said that I’m not fully recovered and that the doctor doesn’t want me running around?"

Huo Qilin’s eyes instantly lit up, "Are you willing to go back to the ward?"

Xia Qingtian cracked a smile, "Of course, I’m not going to neglect my own health."

Huo Qilin wanted to remind her of the stubborn individual who just woke up and was still weak but insisted on being discharged from the hospital to find Bo Jingyan.

However, now that she was willing to return to the ward and obediently receive treatment, he decided not to dig up past affairs.

So, Xia Qingtian and Huo Qilin returned to the ward together, praying inwardly that the medical staff had not discovered that she was planning to escape from the hospital.

But her luck didn’t seem to be good today. Earlier on, she had run into Bo Jingyan and Shi Qian which made her infuriated, and now upon returning to the ward, she saw the nurse looking displeased.

"Your body is still very weak, you might have a fever again at any time, and you can’t run around, you need to rest in bed!" The nurse looked sternly at Huo Qilin, "Haven’t I specially reminded the family every time I check?"

Huo Qilin felt wronged.

But, if he doesn’t take the blame, the one who will face the consequences will be Xia Qingtian. Therefore, if possible, he would rather be the one to bear the brunt.

"I’m sorry..." He apologized promptly.

Seeing his sincere apology, the nurse did not continue scolding him.

She checked on Xia Qingtian and found that she was indeed running a low fever.

She gave her some antipyretics to take. If the fever does not subside later or gets worse, she would give her an injection.

After finishing her task and reminding them a few things, she left.
