Qiao Lian’s pupils shrunk immediately. She turned to look at Song Cheng.

“So serious? I’m coming over right now! Please wait for me!”

Song Cheng’s expression tensed up. After hanging up the phone, he did not waste another second speaking and got into the car, making another call as he drove away at a high speed.

That look...

If she had not misheard, he had said that Shen Liangchuan was at the hospital.

Why was he at the hospital?

She frowned as she pushed Qiao Yi into the living room with help from the housekeeper..

“Sister, is everything alright with Brother-in-law?” Qiao Yi suddenly asked.

Qiao Lian bit her lips when she heard this.

All at once, she felt anxious.

Although he didn’t treat her well, she couldn’t help being concerned about him.

But she smiled as she responded to Qiao Yi, “Of course he’s alright, what are you thinking!?”

Changing the topic, she looked directly at Qiao Yi and said in a serious tone, “You’ve heard what the specialists said today. While I understand that you’re anxious to get well, you can’t overdo the exercises. This would be harmful to your knees! If you continue to overdo your exercises, you’ll be crippled for life and I won’t care about you anymore!”

Qiao Yi hung his head like a guilty child. “I only wanted to get well faster. I don’t want you to continue suffering.”

Qiao Lian reached out her hand to rub his head. “As the old saying goes, illnesses are quick to come and slow to go. Just take it easy and relax, understand?”

Qiao Yi nodded. “I know, Sister. You didn’t rest well last night. It’s the weekend now. You should go take a nap.”

Qiao Lian headed up to the master bedroom and lied on the bed.

She was physically exhausted, but lying there all she could think of was that anxious look on Song Cheng’s face earlier on.

She was terribly concerned.

After a short while, she couldn’t help but lightly slap herself on the head.

Qiao Lian, Shen Liangchuan treats you so poorly, why do you still worry about him?

Even if he had been hospitalized, so what? Did it have anything to do with her?

All the better if he died. This way she would be free from the devil’s clutch again!

With these mean thoughts, she took in a deep breath and shut her eyes.

Half an hour later.

The woman lying on the bed suddenly sat up and grabbed her own hair fretfully. Unable to stop herself, she picked up her cell phone and went into her contact list to find Song Cheng’s number. She was both worried and in a dilemma.

After a while, she moved away from Song Cheng’s contact details and looked up Xia Yehua’s instead. She dialed the latter.

Xia Yehua picked up her call almost immediately. His voice was light and relaxed, “Xiao Qiao, are you free today? It’s been a long time since you’ve visited me. Let’s play a game, shall we?

Qiao Lian was caught by surprise.

From the tone of her voice, it didn’t seem like she knew about Shen Liangchuan.

“Oh, not today. I’ve made plans...”

She found an excuse, glossed over it with a few words and hung up.

She sat on the bed with the cell phone in one hand. She felt increasingly uneasy.

In the end, she got up and went downstairs for a stroll in the garden with Qiao Yi.

It was eight in the evening when Qiao Lian finally laid on the bed in a daze. Just as she was about to fall asleep, her cell phone started ringing.

She sat up with a jerk and picked up the phone. She saw on the screen that it was Song Cheng’s number.

She quickly accepted the call. From the other end came Song Yuanxi’s anxious voice, “Sister-in-law, where are you? Brother Liangchuan is sick. Can you come over?”
