Chapter 68 To Be Gentle
Qiao Ning was carried home by Li Chengyan and leaned weakly against Li Chengyan's arms. The servant was startled to see it and thought something had happened.
"Prepare some soothing soup and bring it up." Li Chengyan ordered.
The servant nodded quickly and immediately went to prepare the tranquilizer soup.
"Just lie down and sleep for a while." Li Chengyan held Qiao Ning together, took off her shoes and socks, and covered her with the quilt.
"Li Chengyan." Qiao Ning called him in a low voice and reached out to hold his hand, as if he didn't want him to leave.
Seeing that she was so dependent on herself, Li Chengyan could not help but smile gently and touch her head lovingly.
At this time, the servant knocked on the door and came in. Li Chengyan personally fed Qiao Ning a bowl.
Qiao Ning shook his head and said weakly, "I don't really want to drink. I don't have an appetite.
"It's just soup for you to rest well. Just drink it as water." Li Chengyan gently coaxed.
The servant waited by the side and was shocked to see Li Chengyan. The servants here had been serving Li Chengyan for more than twenty years. When had they ever seen him so gentle? She couldn't help but look up to Qiao Ning and think that this lady was really resourceful.
"Can you accompany me today?" Qiao Ning asked again pitifully.
Li Chengyan nodded and said gently, "Of course, I'm free this afternoon. I'll be with you."
Qiao ning's eyes were red and she opened her mouth to drink the soup from his spoon.
She was not a weak person, and she didn't want to die when she met her. She was bullied by the Qiao Wenyuan family and did not feel very sad. But today, she killed a child for no reason. She felt very scared and guilty, so she didn't dare to be alone.
It seemed that as soon as she closed her eyes, it was the blood under Qiao Shan's body, which eventually turned into a baby.
After finishing the soup, Li Chengyan handed the empty bowl to the servant and asked him to go down. Then he called Chen Heng and asked him to leave something to someone else. If he couldn't handle it, he would talk about it when he had time.
After the call, he took a shower and changed his clothes, then held qiao ning in his arms.
Qiao Ning hugged him tightly, tears still falling.
"I really didn't mean it, really." Qiao Ning choked again.
She didn't know how many times she had said this. If it were anyone else, Li Chengyan would have been impatient to listen and scolded her mother-in-law.
But with Qiao Ning, he was extremely patient.
Patting her on the shoulder again to comfort her, "I know it's not your fault. It's none of your business. Sleep well and forget when you wake up."
Qiao Ning's tears welled up. She didn't know if she would forget after a nap. But now she closed her eyes obediently. Maybe she was tired from crying, or maybe she fell asleep quickly because of the tranquilizer soup.
Li Chengyan gently put her down and sighed as he looked at her red and swollen eyes and pale face.
A gentle kiss fell on her eyes and cheeks, and finally on her delicate lips.
Qiao Ning slept so soundly that he didn't even notice or wake up.
Li Chengyan made sure that she was asleep before she lifted the quilt and quietly got out of bed. As soon as she got down, she took out her cell phone and called Chen Heng to let chen heng go to his study.
"Find out what Qiao Shan is doing recently and who he's dating." Li Chengyan ordered Chen Heng coldly.
Chen Heng nodded and said again, "Young master Yunxiang came over today and said he wanted a position for Yan Su. Look..."
Li Chengyan's eyes darkened and he said slowly, "Let him go to the branch office and be a manager! The probation period is one month, and if he doesn't pass, he will be kicked out directly."
"Yes." Chen Heng nodded.
Li Chengyan leaned back after Chen Heng left and narrowed his eyes to recall what happened today. Yan Su was at the table too. Unexpectedly, the child was already so old.
Yes, he was only two years younger than him.
Qiao Ning took a nap, and when she woke up, Li Chengyan was still by her side.
Qiao ning looked at him with her eyes wide open and could not help but reach out and gently touch his tightly pursed lips.
Li Chengyan's lips were a little thin. I heard that such a person was more cold. But thinking of his gentle comfort today, Qiao Ning was full of warmth. Whether he loved her or not, he was now doing his duty as a husband.
Her husband was kind enough to do his duty.
"You're awake." Li Chengyan opened his eyes and said in a low and hoarse voice.
Qiao ning blushed and quickly withdrew her hand.
Unexpectedly, Li Chengyan grabbed her and kissed her on the lips. She let go of her hand and leaned over to kiss her lips again. She asked gently, "How do you feel? Are you still uncomfortable?"
Qiao Ning couldn't stand the gentleness and her heart was pounding.
Today's Li Chengyan was very different. She was too gentle to know what to do.
"It's much better, thank you." Qiao Ning said with a red face.
Li Chengyan smiled, reached out and rubbed her cheek, "I'm your husband. It's my duty to comfort you. Why are you thanking me? If you feel better, get up. Are you hungry? You ate less at noon. You must be hungry now!"
Qiao Ning's stomach growled and he was really hungry. He couldn't help but blush and get up quickly.
The two of them went downstairs for dinner. During dinner, Li Chengyan kept picking up food for Qiao Ning, which made Qiao Ning very flattered.
After dinner, Li Chengyan went to work in the study again. Qiao Ning took the book and read it. Her legs were healed, and she had to fulfill her promise to be Li Chengyan's assistant, so she had to know what she should know.
However, what happened today was too much for her to care about. She didn't read much books and went to Li Chengyan again. She hesitated to ask him about Qiao Shan.
At this moment, Li Chengyan was holding the investigation materials sent by Chen Heng and throwing them on the table with a cold snort.
Seeing that qiao ning was here, she asked him and sneered, "Your sister is really not simple. She deliberately dropped this child. You don't have to blame yourself."
"How is that possible? How could she deliberately get rid of the child?" Qiao ning was shocked and immediately denied it.
"How could that be? She bit you on purpose to get you to get rid of her. I've shown people that even if you get rid of her, she might not hit the sharp edge of the sink. But she did. No one could do it except she wanted to."
"But why would she do that? She likes Xia Jingyu so much. How could she bear to abort his child?"
"That's the truth. Because this child might not be Xia Jingyu's, she had to get rid of it." Li Chengyan said coldly.
Qiao Ning shuddered and looked at Li Chengyan in disbelief.
But Li Chengyan threw her a file and opened it to see her before she understood. She also knew the man in this file. He was Qiao Shan's junior high school classmate. They had a good time in junior high school. Later, Qiao Wenyuan scolded him and had to break up.
Unexpectedly, they had been together again recently, and it hadn't been a day or two.
