Qiao Xingcan's tears stopped, but her eyes became even redder. She pursed her lips in grievance and cursed softly, "Asshole!"

After Qi War realized what he was doing, he stretched out his long arms and pulled her into his arms, saying warmly, "Do you think I left?"

Qiao Xingcan clenched his fist and hammered his shoulder, "Didn't you just want to quarrel with me?"

The topic returned to before Lu Shen left the operating room.

Qi Zhan sighed and hugged her tighter, "Cancan, I'm sorry, I don't want you to get hurt, I'm just angry with myself, why am I not by your side every time you are in danger!"

His embrace was very warm, and when Qiao Xingcan touched him, it was like taking a poppy, and she couldn't bear to leave.

The grievance in her heart slowly dissipated, and she felt Qi Zhan's depressed mood. She slowly raised her arms hanging on both sides, wrapped them around his waist, and said softly, "Azhan, you have protected me very well. It’s because there are too many bad people around us that it’s impossible to guard against them, no wonder you!”

Qi Zhan pursed his thin lips tightly, and after a long while he said in a deep voice, "It's all my fault. Chu He said, the person who kidnapped you this time claimed to be my enemy. I'm sorry, it was me who caused trouble for you!"

Qiao Xingcan rested her chin on his shoulder and shook her head gently after hearing this, "We are husband and wife. We don't talk about getting involved or not. If we really talk about it, I will get you more involved!"

Qi Zhan gently stroked her back, "We are destined to be entangled and drag each other down in this life! But don't be afraid, I have sent people to investigate. When the mastermind behind it is found, I will definitely help you get revenge!"

Qiao Xingcan borrowed the hospital bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.

Qiao Xingcan wanted to stay in the hospital and wait for Lu Shen to wake up. Although Qi Zhan felt unhappy, he still didn't want to make her angry anymore.

So the two of them made do with resting in an empty ward.

Qiao Xingcan was sitting on the hospital bed, eating the late-night snack Qi Zhan had someone buy for her while secretly looking at his expression.

The beds in public hospitals are narrow and hard. A young man with a delicate body like Qi Zhan will definitely not be able to sleep well.

Qiao Xingcan tentatively said, "You can't sleep well here either. Why don't you find a hotel nearby to stay? I can stay here by myself!"

Qi Zhan lay down directly on the bed opposite to express his determination, "It's okay, I'll stay with you."

He lay on his side and watched Qiao Xingcan eat without blinking. When she finally had enough to drink and wash herself, Qi Zhan was already sleepy and refused to recognize her relatives.

He raised his heavy eyelids and stretched out his hand towards her with a faint smile, "Come here and sleep together!"

Qiao Xingcan glared at him, "Stop making trouble, this is a hospital!"

Qi Zhan held his head and looked at her innocently, "What did I do? I just want to hold you to sleep. Do you want to do something else?"

Qiao Xingcan coughed guiltily, "I mean... the hospital bed is too small for two people to sleep on!"

Qi Zhan moved inside to make room for her, "Let's lie on our sides facing each other so we can sleep."

Qiao Xingcan was a little speechless, but he finally dragged her to the bed and lay down.

After turning off the light, the two of them lay face to face. Qi Zhan stretched out his arms across her neck, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her soft lips gently.

Qiao Xingcan obediently pressed her face against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and asked casually, "What have you been busy with in the past week? You are so busy that you don't even have time to video chat with me."

Qi Zhan closed his eyes and said in a low and lazy voice, "Of course I'm busy with company matters. I'm definitely not fooling around behind your back anyway."

Qiao Xingcan rolled his eyes and said in a weird tone, "That's not necessarily true. After all, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. I'm not installing surveillance around you!"

Qi Zhan laughed helplessly, knowing that she was going to turn her intestines!

"Cancan, I will know that you and Lu Shen appeared in the same hotel, not because Chu He is spying on you, but because someone deliberately sent me an anonymous email." He wrapped his fingers around the ends of her hair and played with it gently. "There are two videos in total. The first one is of you and Lu Shen chatting in the hotel restaurant, and the second one is of Lu Shen risking his life to save you."

Qiao Xingcan moved, raised her head and stared at him in the night, "Is that why you scolded me indiscriminately?"

Qi Zhan immediately retorted, "When did I scold you? I was obviously trying to analyze with you Lu Shen's impure motives! At best, I was just...jealous..."

His voice became softer and softer as he spoke, and the last two words were only breathy.

Qiao Xingcan couldn't help but laugh, lying on his chest and laughing out loud.

She reached out and patted Qi Zhan's waist, "It's not easy. In my lifetime, I can hear the cold, arrogant and dignified Young Master Qi admit that he is jealous!"

Qi Zhan snorted in displeasure, tightened his hand around her waist, and said in a consultative tone, "Then can you stay farther away from Lu in the future?"

Qiao Xingcan paused and shook his head slightly, "I'm afraid not."

In the dim night, Qi Zhan frowned and his deep eyes darkened.

Qiao Xingcan raised her hand and stroked his raised brow bone, "Azhan, Lu Shen saved my life after all. Even if he had any intention of getting close to me, the sin he suffered for me was real. He almost died on the operating table. It’s true! So I can’t alienate him, I must return this kindness!”

Qi Zhan said in a plaintive tone, "I have saved your life before, why don't you care so much?"

Qiao Xingcan was stunned for two seconds and lowered his eyes slightly, "I can owe you because you are my husband, but I don't want to owe him because he and I are destined to never be close friends."

Qi Zhan raised his eyebrows slightly, his dark eyes shining brightly in the moonlight outside the window.

Because of Qiao Xingcan's words, his depressed mood improved almost instantly, and the entanglement in his heart gradually dissipated.

Qiao Xingcan looked at the slowly rising corners of his lips and his obviously excited expression, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Aren't you angry anymore?"

"Ah."

Qiao Xingcan reached out and kneaded his face a few times, "You are so coaxing!"

Qi Zhan grabbed her hand and said, "There is still another place where I need your coaxing."

"what?"

Qi Zhan grabbed her hand and moved it downward, "Here."

Touching the hard foreign object, Qiao Xingcan withdrew his hand and pushed him shyly, "What about just sleeping as promised?"

Qi Zhan raised his arms to cover her and leaned close to her ear, "I am very simple, but I can't control it."

His warm breath sprayed behind her ears, tingling like electricity throughout her body.

Qiao Xingcan's earlobes felt hot. Although she didn't want to admit it, she almost couldn't control it.

In the end, he was defeated by reason and said righteously, "No, this is a hospital! Go to sleep quickly!"

Qi Zhan knew that she always meant what she said, so he buried his face in her neck dejectedly and muttered resignedly, "Good night, wife."

Qiao Xingcan smiled in the darkness and said, "Good night."

She originally thought that Qi Zhan had difficulty falling asleep and was going to make a fuss for a while. Unexpectedly, after the two of them calmed down, in less than 2 minutes, the sound of his steady breathing could be heard in her ears.

Qiao Xingcan was a little surprised, but he didn't know that Qi Zhan hadn't had a good sleep for many days.

After a sleepless night, Qiao Xingcan was woken up by a knock on the door. She opened her eyes in a daze and waited for two seconds before she fully woke up.
