My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again-Chapter 1748: His First Love (2)

Qiao Qiao only then remembered what Ye Shiqing had said last night, that his friend was sick and had disappeared. She didn’t think much of it at the time, thinking it was an old comrade, but who knew it was his first love who was ill, and she had actually encouraged him to go find her?

The most frustrating part for her was that Ye Shiqing’s words were ambiguous, while she had acted like a fool.

"Xiaoqiao, my sister is a good person, she wouldn’t destroy your marriage with Brother Shiqing. But she’s sick now, and I can’t do anything about it. The doctor said my sister’s mindset is not good right now. If it continues like this, it will only get worse. By the time organ failure sets in, not even a deity can save her..."

"Why are you telling me this? The legs are on Ye Shiqing, whether he goes to take care of Wen Baobao is his business, what does that have to do with me?" Qiao Qiao looked coldly at Wen Beibei: "Or are you trying to create misunderstandings between Ye Shiqing and me by deliberately stirring things up in front of me?"

"N-no, it’s not like that, don’t misunderstand. It’s my poor expression. I wanted to say my sister doesn’t want me to ask Brother Shiqing for help. I was just thinking, my sister’s emotional knot is Brother Shiqing, and after Brother Shiqing got married, her condition actually worsened. I just hoped you could meet my sister to see if you can untie her heart’s knot. I know this request is abrupt, but I’m really at a loss and can’t just stand by and watch my sister not eat or drink. Out of sheer desperation, I had no choice but to disturb you, hoping you..."

"I’ve never met Wen Baobao, isn’t it ridiculous for you to ask me to see her?" Qiao Qiao interrupted Wen Beibei: "If there’s nothing else, I’m going back to work."

Wen Beibei wanted to say something else, but Qiao Qiao ignored her and quickly returned to the company.

She sat back at her desk, recalling that Ye Shiqing had gone to see Wen Baobao last night and didn’t know what time he returned home, making her anxious.

Looking back carefully now, this morning when she asked him for some details, he had obviously changed the subject. If he had nothing to hide, why would he intentionally keep it from her?

Just as Su Hongxing was taken to Jufeng Group by Ye Qilan, she didn’t even have someone to vent to.

Throughout the day, if it weren’t for Little Baozi occasionally distracting her, she wouldn’t know how she got through it. Finally, it was time to get off work, and she thought Ye Shiqing would come to pick her up, but by six o’clock, he was nowhere to be seen. She couldn’t help but wonder if Ye Shiqing had gone to take care of Wen Baobao again, leaving her and the child behind.

Was it foolish to wait like this?

Once the seed of doubt was planted in her heart, Qiao Qiao could no longer stay calm. After waiting for another ten minutes or so, she finally hailed a taxi and decided to go home by herself.

When Ye Shiqing arrived, Qiao Qiao was nowhere to be found.

He called her, only to find out she had taken a taxi home.

"Xiaoqiao, didn’t I tell you I’d come to pick you up after work? Shouldn’t you have called me before going home on your own?" Ye Shiqing sounded reproachful.

After struggling through traffic to get there, only to find Qiao Qiao gone, saying he wasn’t disappointed would be a lie.

Qiao Qiao was in a bad mood, "You’re so busy, how would I know if you might have something come up at the last minute? I waited for you for forty minutes, you didn’t come, of course I went home by myself, should I have continued to wait indefinitely?"

"Yes, I was indeed late today, but you could have called me first. How hard is it to make a phone call?"
