After being reborn, the scumbag CEO begs me to remarry him every day.

"Dr. Qiao, you're incredibly audacious to offend even Young Master Jin."

"Young Master Jin?"

"You don't know? Jin Xinghan, the largest shareholder of our hospital. Even the hospital director has to bow and scrape when he sees him."

"Isn't he just a rich kid?" Qiao Zhiyu usually looked down on this kind of person the most. "He takes advantage of his family's wealth to invest everywhere, in real estate, medical care, and so on. It's like the hospital would go bankrupt if people like him didn't invest."

"That's right. In my opinion, the reason why our hospital has become the best in the city is because of good doctors like you. You are so young and you are already the deputy director of the department. You will definitely rise to great heights in the future."

"Dr. Qiao, your wife is in the ward up ahead. She gave birth to a daughter for you, weighing six pounds and four ounces."

"Daughter?" Qiao Zhiyu frowned slightly.

"Yes, they say a daughter is her father's little cotton-padded jacket, your daughter will definitely be a sweetheart in the future."

"Yes, my daughter is doing well too." Qiao Zhiyu's smile faded considerably.

When Tang Xia woke up, Qiao Zhiyu came in, sat on the edge of the bed, took her hand, and looked at her with concern: "Wife, I'm sorry, there was a surgery when you were giving birth. The patient specifically asked me to be the chief surgeon. They trusted me so much, I couldn't refuse."

Only a few hours had passed since the previous life.

Tang Xia still remembered Qiao Zhiyu's impatient look when he faced her, so his current caring demeanor made her feel a little uncomfortable.

But she reacted quickly.

This was their second year of marriage, the year he begged her to undergo IVF and she went through great hardship to give birth to their child. At this time, he felt both affection and guilt towards her, and overall treated her fairly well.

The real trouble started when her child was diagnosed with congenital heart disease, and she spent all her time treating her, refusing to have a second child.

Tang Xia withdrew her hand and said coldly, "You have surgery, but what about the rest of your family? Didn't you say that when I gave birth, the whole family would be there to cheer me on?"

Qiao Zhiyu looked somewhat embarrassed, while inwardly complaining, "Tang Xia used to be such an understanding person, how come she's become so immature after having a child?"

Although dissatisfied, he patiently explained:

"You know Mom and Dad, they're not in good health, so they couldn't come. As for Zhi Nuan, she went back to make you postpartum meals."

After saying that, Qiao Zhiyu got up to pour her water and tidied her pillow and blanket. Tang Xia vaguely remembered that after she suddenly fainted, someone took her back to her room and found a doctor to examine her.

Could it be Qiao Zhiyu?

Rebirth means starting over. What about Qiao Zhiyu? Is it possible for him to become better too? Tang Xia, clinging to her last glimmer of hope, said, "Honey, the doctor said the baby has congenital heart disease."

"Congenital heart disease?" Qiao Zhiyu frowned, but quickly relaxed and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's a girl anyway. Once you're better, we'll have another one."

Tang Xia picked up the water glass on the table and splashed it directly in his face.

"What are you doing!" Qiao Zhiyu asked in a low voice, shocked and angry.

"Qiao Zhiyu, although I knew you were a selfish and irresponsible man at heart, I never expected you to be so shameless!"

Upon hearing that the child had a heart condition, he didn't even bother to inquire about her health before immediately thinking about having another child. Moreover, Tang Xia understood the key point: he wanted another child, specifically a son!

If she can't give birth to a son, he might even make her keep having children!

That bastard! He even forgot how many medicines she took, how many injections she got, and how much suffering she endured this past year all for Niannian!

Seeing her emotional state, Qiao Zhiyu suppressed his anger and wiped his face with a towel: "Forget it, you just gave birth, you're emotional, I won't hold it against you..."

He sighed, sat on the edge of the bed, and took her hand:

"Honey, what I meant earlier wasn't that you should have the baby right away. Two more years would be fine too. You know I don't want you to suffer. But my parents are very concerned about their image; we absolutely need a son to carry on the family business..."

Tang Xia sneered: "Family business? Does your family have a throne to pass on, or ten thousand taels of gold to pass on? Why should I suffer for your family's sake? One isn't enough, you want me to have another one too? Dream on!"

"You!" Qiao Zhiyu could no longer contain herself. "How did you become like this? Is what Mom and Dad said true? That your well-mannered, gentle, and virtuous nature was all an act?"

Before Tang Xia could speak, Qiao Zhiyu flicked his sleeve and said, "Alright, we can discuss the second child later. I'm still at work, so I'm leaving now."

Haha, my wife just gave birth not long ago and even fainted. As her husband, I only stayed with her for five minutes before leaving. Is this what you call love?

If that's the kind of love, then it's too cheap and ridiculous.

Tang Xia stared at his back, secretly planning her divorce.

In his previous life, didn't he regret not being able to spend the rest of his life with his beloved? In this life, she will grant his wish!

A few minutes later, someone suddenly opened the door and rushed in.

She immediately started complaining: "Tang Xia, I texted you to come downstairs and get your food. Are you blind? Can't you see it? Honestly, I have to bring you food after you have a baby. I'm going to be late for my date."

The person who came was Qiao Zhinuan, Qiao Zhiyu's younger sister.

Tang Xia looked at her with a cold smile.

She got appendicitis before the college entrance examination. She stayed by her side in the hospital and did her best to take care of her. After that, she recovered at home. She cooked three different meals for her every day, and finally she recovered before the college entrance examination.

Now that she's having a baby, such a big event, all she gets is to deliver some food, and they treat her with such a terrible attitude.

Tang Xia opened the lunchbox, glanced at it, and sneered.

This is hardly a postpartum meal.

It was clearly leftover food from a family meal, and the only two pieces of meat were large pieces of fatty meat.

In her previous life, she was weak and foolish, and actually held back from shoving the so-called postpartum meal in her face!

This life...

"Zhi Nuan, come here." Tang Xia smiled and waved to her.

"What now? I already told you I'm going to be late." Qiao Zhinu walked over reluctantly, but before she could finish speaking, a boxed lunch was dumped all over her.

She was stunned for two seconds, then let out a scream.

"Ahhh, Tang Xia, what are you doing! This is my new dress, from a brand store, it cost three thousand! You have to pay me back!"

"Sorry, my hand was shaking."

"You clumsy idiot, no wonder my brother doesn't like you. He went through so much trouble to have a daughter, and my parents were so angry that they came straight home and insisted that I bring you food. How dare you!"

Oh, so the two old folks didn't just not come; they came and then went back.

Qiao Zhinuan refused to let it go and demanded that Tang Xia pay her compensation.

In the past, Tang Xia would apologize repeatedly and then transfer money to her that amount exceeding the price of the dress, and she would reluctantly forgive her.

But this time, no matter what she said, Tang Xia didn't respond.

"Fine, I'll ask my brother!" Qiao Zhinuan huffed and was about to leave, but then she thought for a moment and came back. "Hmph, let me tell you, Sister Yiyue is going back to China for a trip next week. Our whole family will be hosting a welcome party for her, and my brother even took two days off."

"Only a good woman like Yiyue is worthy of my brother. You'd better watch out and don't make me angry again, or I'll make my brother divorce you and marry Sister Yiyue!"

Tang Xia sneered: "I just gave birth, and you're already urging your brother to divorce me. Do you think that's a good idea?"

"It's just having a baby, what's the big deal? It's not like everyone hasn't had a baby. When Sister Yiyue gave birth, she was all alone!"

"Is it because her husband died, and my husband died too?"

Tang Xia picked up her phone and turned on speakerphone: "Qiao Zhiyu, did you hear what your family said to me? Is this what you're thinking too? You want to divorce me and marry Lin Yiyue?"
