As her husband, he didn't tell her immediately when she encountered danger, but instead chose to keep it from her. Lu Tingnian was very bothered by this, thinking that Qiao Luo didn't care about him.

Qiao Luo didn't know how to answer the question. At the time, she was only thinking about not letting Lu Tingnian worry, and she didn't suffer from any real typhoid fever that night, so she chose to keep it a secret. But she didn't expect that Lu Tingnian would find out anyway.

And judging from his tone, he seemed to mind quite a bit.

Qiao Luo quickly said, "I know it was wrong of me to keep it from you that night, but I didn't mean to. I just didn't want you to worry."

"Yeah, you think that since I'm disabled anyway, I can't protect you at all."

Lu Tingnian went along with what she said.

Qiao Luo panicked upon hearing this, realizing that he had clearly misunderstood her meaning, and she quickly denied it.

"No, that's not what I think."

Seeing that her face had turned pale with anxiety, Lu Tingnian suddenly felt a little sorry for her, but he didn't stop and continued, "Yes, that's not what you think, you just believe it to be true from the bottom of your heart."

Seeing that her misunderstanding of her was getting deeper and deeper, Qiao Luo was almost in tears. She quickly said, "Lu Tingnian, I really didn't mean that."

"Really? Even if I were to reluctantly believe it, what about this time?"

Lu Tingnian asked another question.

Qiao Luo: "..."

She was truly speechless this time, and it seemed that only now did she truly understand the meaning of the saying "once unfaithful, always untrustworthy."

"Lu Tingnian, do you no longer believe me?"

Qiao Luo asked back, sounding somewhat aggrieved.

"I believe."

But you have to tell me first.

He added mentally.

Hearing his answer, Qiao Luo felt a mix of emotions. She hadn't expected Lu Tingnian to answer so decisively, without even the slightest hesitation.

On the other hand, she kept everything from him, claiming it was because she didn't want him to worry, but the truth was that she never treated him like a normal person.

Qiao Luo felt ashamed.

But she didn't know how to tell Lu Tingnian. Just as she was struggling with this, Han Jian returned.

"Brother Nian, that person has fainted."

Han Jian reported the truth through the car window.

Lu Tingnian didn't even lift his eyelids before saying to Han Jian, "Call an ambulance for him."

"Yes."

Han Jian turned and left.

Lu Tingnian turned to look at Qiao Luo, trying to discern her reaction to the matter from her face, but found that she was simply staring intently at him, as if he were a complete stranger.

Lu Ting scoffed when he was young.

"What? You think I'm cruel?"

Qiao Luo shook her head.

Lu Tingnian: "No need to rush to deny it."

"No, I really didn't," Qiao Luo quickly explained. She had just felt that he suddenly seemed like a different person.

Calm and composed, as if everything was under control.

Is he really the Lu Tingnian that he thought he was?

"Really? It seems I'm not so bad off in my heart after all."

His statement carried a hint of self-deprecation.

Qiao Luo understood, and she quickly said, "I really have never thought you were bad. On the contrary, I think you are excellent, better than anyone else. I mean it."

"is it?"

He didn't seem to believe it.

Qiao Luo quickly added, "What I said is true, Lu Tingnian. I admit that it was wrong of me to keep those things from you, but I have never looked down on you. I just felt that you were already working hard enough fighting the disease every day, and I didn't want to add to your burden and make things even harder for you. If this has hurt you, I apologize."
