Chapter 1815 - A Heartless Excuse

Chapter 1815: A Heartless Excuse

Before resting, Xu Qingzhi checked a few emails on her phone. She called the person-in-charge of the company to check her work progress. Then, she found the communication app and the nurse’s profile picture. She clicked on it and sent a text message.

[Please take good care of the patient tonight. If someone comes to take care of her, you don’t have to reject them.]

—[Don’t worry, Madam.]

Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips before turning off her phone and placing it on the bedside table.

“Time to sleep, baby.”

She sighed lightly and smiled as she caressed her slightly protruding stomach. Her tone was relaxed as if she had no impact on the recent events.

She turned off the light and crawled under the blanket. There was only a small night light in the room.

The lights were dim.

She could vaguely see Xu Qingzhi staring at the lights on the ceiling with her eyes wide open.

After a few minutes, she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Two hours passed, but Xu Qingzhi didn’t return.

Two hours was enough for her to shower ten times and eat a buffet!

Even if she was on foot, she should have arrived by now!

Li Mo’s expression was extremely ugly. He sat up and picked up his phone to call Xu Qingzhi.

In the end, he received a mechanical notification.

His face darkened even more.

The atmosphere in the ward changed rapidly and she fell into a frozen abyss.

In the corner of the ward was the nurse’s seat. She couldn’t help but shrink back.

Unwilling to give up, Li Mo called again. The only response he got was the cold sound of his phone being switched off.

From then on, he would call every ten minutes until late at night, but he still didn’t give up.

The atmosphere in the ward was extremely cold.

Li Mo wanted to throw his phone away several times, but it didn’t happen.

If he threw her out, how could he call Xu Qingzhi?

The nurse mustered her courage and poured a glass of water for Li Mo. “Master, being angry is bad for your health… It’s getting late, you should rest early.”

She had no idea who her employer was calling over and over again, let alone what had happened.

She could only comfort him carefully.

However, Li Mo ignored her and sent a message to Xu Qingzhi.

After waiting for a long time, it was still unread.

Then, she sent him a WeChat message. She even used the company QQ that they usually used when they were in school. In the end, there was no response.

This went on until two or three in the morning.

The nurse was really anxious.

It was fine if she didn’t sleep, but she had promised to take good care of the patient, but she didn’t sleep for the entire night…

Resting was also the most important part of a patient. If the patient’s family came tomorrow, they would definitely be dissatisfied with her.

But even if Master didn’t provoke him, his temper was terrifying. How could she dare to speak so easily?

But it was already so late…

After hesitating for about ten minutes, she finally plucked up the courage to walk to his side and remind him softly, “Master, it’s getting late. You really should rest…”

Li Mo narrowed his eyes at her and put down his phone. He said coldly, “Did she say something to you before she left?”

The nurse was frightened by his gaze and tone. “…No… No? Madam didn’t tell me anything before she left…”

Li Mo’s voice turned even colder. “She didn’t say anything to you and you’ve stayed until now?”

The nurse paused before realizing that he had been calling Madam.

“Didn’t Madam tell you? At around eight, Madam sent me a message and asked me to take good care of you tonight.”

Li Mo frowned deeply.

“I sent you a message at eight?”

The nurse nodded. “Yes… yes.”

Around eight…

In other words, she had no intention of coming to the hospital after taking a shower and eating?

Damn it!

Seeing that Li Mo’s face was getting uglier and uglier, the nurse continued, “Master, don’t be angry. After all, Madam is pregnant and her body is getting heavier by the day. Not only do I have to take care of you, but I also have to take care of myself. I have to spend twice the energy of an ordinary person. It’s very tiring.”

Moreover, this was a hospital after all. The smell of medicine was not good for a pregnant woman’s health. It was only right for her to go home and rest, right?

Li Mo frowned. “If she didn’t come, why didn’t she tell me directly back then?!”

“Will you let her go back if I tell you?”

Of course not.

Her attitude and behavior during the day had already made him uneasy. Now, she had stood him up at night…

She wasn’t like this when he was in the hospital yesterday…

“Master, rest early. Madam loves you so much. She will definitely come tomorrow morning. If she finds out that you didn’t rest well, her heart will ache…”

Li Mo looked at her. “You know that she loves me too?”

The nurse smiled and said, “Yes, Madam is such an outstanding and beautiful woman. If she doesn’t really love you, why would she marry you and give birth to your children?”

Limo was silent for a while before his lips twitched. “You’re right.”

He lay on the bed again and said, “Alright, go out. I’m going to sleep. Otherwise, she’ll be worried tomorrow…”

He looked as though he was not the one who was unhappy just now. His words and actions were even a little childish.

The nurse heaved a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile. “Rest well, sir. If there’s anything, press the bell on the cabinet.”

“Yeah.”

She could tell that he was in a good mood.

Obviously, the nurse’s words of “Madam loves you” had completely pleased him.

–

Coming early in the morning? That was nonsense.

Qiao Zhilan came personally to deliver breakfast to Limo, but Xu Qingzhi was nowhere to be seen.

Li Mo’s heart sank. “Where’s Xu Qingzhi?”

Qiao Zhilan handed the food box to the nurse and glanced at him calmly. “You left her alone at home for nearly three months after you got married. Now, you’re suddenly clinging to her? Why should she go along with you? Who do you think you are? You can do whatever you want?”

Li Mo gritted his teeth and said, “She said that she would come over last night, but I waited for nothing!”

Qiao Zhilan snorted. “Really? I don’t think she has any intention of coming over tonight…”

Why? You’re anxious after waiting for a night? Have you ever thought that ever since the two of you got married, you’ve made her wait at home for dozens of nights? Don’t act as if everyone owes you something. Don’t think that you’re my son. You’re really stupid beyond redemption!”

Qingzhi had waited for more than ten nights?

If those days were included…

How much did a woman love someone to be able to persevere alone for so many years?

Li Mo’s face was tense, but he didn’t say anything.

There was no room for argument.

What he said was indeed the truth.

“When is she coming over?”

“She was still sleeping when I left. If she wants to come over, she’ll probably come over after lunch.”

Li Mo took a sip of the rice soup. “Then she should bring me lunch.”

Qiao Zhilan glanced at him and pushed the thermos box on the cabinet towards him.

“Drink less. Half of this is your lunch.”

Li Mo was speechless.

He tolerated the rice soup for breakfast. Was it lunch or rice soup? Or even the leftover rice soup in the morning?

“Do you think they’re enough to replenish the nutrients I need?”

“If it’s not enough, don’t you have some nutrition?”

Li Mo was speechless.

Was she taking revenge on his behalf?

Li Mo placed the bowl aside with an ugly expression.

If it was in the past, Qiao Zhilan would definitely beg him to eat more because her heart ached for him. But today, she didn’t say anything.

Instead, she fixed the thermos flask and said, “Rest well. Your health is more important. Don’t be angry with anyone with your body. When the time comes, you won’t even be able to satisfy a woman, let alone Qingzhi…”

Li Mo’s gloomy face suddenly turned and he frowned at her.

Qiao Zhilan pursed her lips and said, “Qingzhi is a good lady. If you don’t know how to cherish her, there will naturally be others. Take that Best Actor Chu for example. Regardless of his figure or looks, he’s top-notch. He’s also very gentle to Qingzhi. As for you, what do you have?”

Li Mo’s face tensed. “What do I have? I have a child and a marriage certificate!”

Seeing Limo’s indignant and exasperated look, Qiao Zhilan chuckled softly. “A marriage certificate can be exchanged for a divorce certificate. As for the child…”

“Do you have the cheek to talk about the child now? Back then, you said that Qingzhi was unscrupulous and used the child to marry you. You were disdainful and shameless. You felt that she had used the child to tie you down! Now, you want to use the child to stall Qingzhi? Don’t you feel embarrassed?”

Li Mo opened his mouth, but no words came out. After a moment of silence, he said, “If she can use the child, why can’t I do it once each? That’s only fair…”

“Then let’s see if you’ll succeed in using the child.”

Xu Qingzhi woke up naturally and had breakfast. After resting for a while, she started preparing the soup for Limo.

“Qingzhi, what are you busy with?”

The old lady went downstairs and asked Xu Qingzhi, who was busy in the kitchen.

Xu Qingzhi turned her head and smiled at her. “I’m preparing the soup for Limo. I’ll send it to him at noon.”

The old lady nodded with a smile, but she felt uneasy.

“Zhizhi, Limo isn’t a bad person. You have to trust your judgment. But I can’t deny that he’s a little stupid. Give him some time and he’ll know eventually…”

“Know what?” Xu Qingzhi smiled and blinked.

“I know he loves you! A bystander sees everything clearly. Your mother-in-law and I know very well that Limo actually loves you!”

The smile on Xu Qingzhi’s face froze. A few seconds later, she chuckled softly.

“Grandma, don’t comfort me. I’m fine.”

The old lady’s heart skipped a beat. “So, Limo, what do you plan to do in the future?”

A glint flashed across Xu Qingzhi’s eyes. She turned around and placed the prepared seasonings into the pot of soup. After closing the lid, she turned around and leaned against the counter with a smile.

“Grandma, actually, what I said yesterday wasn’t out of anger. However, whether Limo really loves me or not, Mo Xiaona has an irreplaceable place in his heart… He and Miss Mo were together when they were in university. After so many years of separation, they still have a connection… Limo isn’t an indecisive person… Just like how he treated me back then. When I forced him to marry me, he could leave me alone in this villa and ignore me.

It’s not that I want to tell you about his past. I just want to prove that I know who Limo really loves.

“Limo and I are not mortal enemies. I love him, so I sincerely hope that he will be happy in the future. I believe you and Granny think so too, so…”

Don’t stop Mo Xiaona from being with him anymore. You couldn’t stop them many years ago, so why are you doing this now… This can only let us witness how firm their relationship is.

I think if I continue to waste time with Limo… I won’t be able to take it. Moreover, I can only make him hate me even more. It’s all unnecessary.

“That’s why Grandma, I’ll fulfill their wishes. As long as Limo feels happy, it doesn’t matter who it is. Don’t you think so?”

The old lady shook her head and looked at Xu Qingzhi eagerly. “So you’re determined to divorce Limo?”

Xu Qingzhi nodded and didn’t deny it.

The old lady stared at her for a long time before sighing heavily!

She nodded helplessly and said, “Forget it, forget it! Since you’ve already made a decision, I don’t care about you anymore. We’re all bystanders in your relationship. We can’t interfere. Let you do whatever you want…”

She sighed and turned to walk out of the kitchen. Her voice was filled with regret, helplessness, and disappointment.

Xu Qingzhi curled her hands behind her waist and pressed them against the edge of the counter. Her palms were cold.

“I’m sorry, Grandma.”

She apologized profusely, but the old lady only sighed and shook her head without responding.

Xu Qingzhi turned around silently and faced the stove. She watched the steam rising from the soup. With one hand on the counter and the other on her forehead, her hair fell in front of her, covering most of her face.

—

Just as Li Mo couldn’t take it anymore and wanted to return home, Xu Qingzhi opened the door and walked in.

The ward was filled with doctors and nurses. Li Mo had already put on his suit and was throwing a tantrum at the doctors.

“What’s wrong?” Xu Qingzhi asked in confusion. Everyone in the room turned to look at her.

“Aiyo, Madam, you’re finally here…”

The nurse slapped her thigh and hurried over.

“Master waited for you all night last night…”

Li Mo stared at her coldly. “Xu Qingzhi, you dare to stand me up?”

Xu Qingzhi walked in calmly and placed the food container aside.

“I was too tired yesterday and accidentally fell asleep.”
