The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 410 - 408

Inside the hospital room.

Old Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Yue’er arrived early. Wu Lening hadn’t woken up yet, and Qiao Yaozu was getting an IV in her room so he could keep an eye on his wife.

After Qiao Yue’er arrived, she pretended to be considerate by fetching a basin of water from the bathroom to wipe Wu Lening’s face.

"See, see, at crucial times you see who has a conscience and who doesn’t! The one you raised yourself is different. Look at that Qiao Qiqi. Even when Lening is in this state, where is she? Not even a shadow to be seen. I think she doesn’t care about her biological mother at all! You all better open your eyes..."

Old Mrs. Qiao chattered incessantly. Qiao Jiezhe blocked Qiao Yue’er, preventing her from approaching his mother, and looked displeasedly at the old lady. "If you’re really here to visit the sick, say less! My mom needs peace and quiet! Your constant blabbering affects her recovery!"

"You unfilial child, I see you’ve been led astray by that little demon, dare to talk to your grandma like that..."

"Mom! Stop arguing! Lening needs quiet rest! If this continues, just go back, don’t come again!" Even Qiao Yaozu couldn’t bear it any longer, as his wife hadn’t woken up yet!

The old lady was scolded by both her grandson and son. Her face turned red with anger, and she shouted furiously, "I’m kindly coming to see my daughter-in-law, and you all resent me! You heartless ones, you’re trying to drive me to death! Indeed, once people get old, they get disliked everywhere! I don’t want to live... I’ll just go die, okay! I won’t live anymore..."

Qiao Yaozu felt the veins throbbing on his forehead. He was already having a headache from all the noise; no need to mention his injured wife!

Qiao Jiezhe was also extremely angered, staring wide-eyed at the old lady’s unreasonable behavior, ready to throw her out.

But someone was faster than him, two men in black barged in, and without a word, dragged the wailing old lady out.

The world finally quieted down.

Qiao Yaozu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He truly couldn’t stand this mother anymore.

Qiao Yue’er awkwardly took the basin back, then obediently sat on the sofa watching her mother, not daring to do anything else. She was sure if she did anything further, she’d probably be thrown out too.

She couldn’t harm Wu Lening, moreover, she was eagerly looking forward to her mom waking up soon. Only when her mom wakes up, her own days can be a bit easier.

As long as she didn’t act out, Qiao Jiezhe couldn’t be bothered to look at her, focusing solely on the mother on the hospital bed.

...

Qiao Qiqi boarded the plane planning to rest, when someone sat in the seat next to her. She looked up and saw Gu Shili sitting beside her. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"? Such a coincidence? You’re going back to Capital City too?"

"Mm, I happened to have some business to attend to there." Gu Shili took off the sunglasses on his face; the two sat quite close.

They were sitting in economy class this time.

"..."

"You wouldn’t be thinking of accompanying me, would you? It’s really unnecessary, I can handle it myself."

Gu Shili knew she was capable, even if he hadn’t shown up yesterday, she probably could have handled that group of people. But he helped her, and she didn’t reject it, did she?

So, would he still be a man if he didn’t take such a good opportunity?

"I don’t want you to be too tired. Don’t worry, I’ll just be your helper."

"Letting you be my helper feels like a huge waste." It’s really overqualified.

"It’s not a waste. As long as I can help you, I’m very happy!"

Qiao Qiqi, "..."

Alright then.
