All these benefits definitely have to be hers!
“Mom, he didn’t care about you crying and making a fuss . But if you don’t even want your life, would Dad still not care?
Xia Qingyang’s mind ticked and her face paled instantly, beads of cold sweat forming on her forehead . Looking at Lu Qi’s cold expression, she asked dryly, incredulously, “Don’t even want my life… You even want me to commit suicide?”
Lu Qi sighed . “I’m not asking you to commit suicide in real, what were you thinking? You’re my mother, why will I ever harm or hurt you?”
Xia Qingyang sighed in relief, and heard Lu Qi say, “You just need to put on a show, that’s all!”
Therefore, Lu Qiyuan received a phone call regarding her Xia Qingyang’s suicidal attempt from the maid .
Although he clearly knew that Xia Qingyang wouldn’t make a joke about her own life, Lu Qiyuan still had to return home .
“Where’s Madam?” Entering the house, Lu Qiyuan asked, his voice low and dark .
“Madam is lying in the bedroom . ” Auntie Chen took Lu Qiyuan’s coat from him .
Lu Qiyuan’s face darkened even more when he went to the bedroom only to see Lu Qi staying by Xia Qingyang’s bed .
Xia Qingyang’s face was surprisingly really pale and devoid of any color . Her wrist was even covered in bandages .
Lu Qiyuan’s eyebrows jumped in surprise . Did Xia Qingyang really try to end her life?
Lu Qiyuan had never expected Xia Qingyang to really do something so extreme because of him .
Suddenly, an indescribable strange feeling rose in his chest, yet at the same time, he felt a little smug . Xia Qingyang really treated him like he was her whole world .
Seeing Lu Qiyuan return, Xia Qingyang hurriedly tried to sit up but was stopped by Lu Qi . “Mom, please lie down and try not to move about . ”
Lu Qiyuan sighed and walked over to sit on the side of the bed . “Qi Qi is right, stop moving about . Why… why were you so foolish!”
Xia Qingyang’s broke into tears, her tears streaming endlessly down her face . “Isn’t it because I’m scared that you don’t want me anymore?”
Xia Qingyang’s hand trembled as she grabbed onto Lu Qiyuan’s hand as if she was holding onto her own life . “Qiyuan, I only have you, please don’t ever abandon me . ”
Her words struck a chord with Lu Qiyuan and he sighed . “Why wouldn’t I want you? I didn’t go to find Xia Qingwei at all . It’s just that my mood wasn’t that great, so I wanted to just go out and take a stroll, relax a little . Don’t overthink it . ”
“Mm . ” Xia Qingyang nodded pitifully . “It’s all my fault . I foolishly suspected you without any reason . Qiyuan, can you forgive me?”
“Yes . ” Lu Qiyuan patted Xia Qingwei’s shoulder lightly, thinking that she only did this because she cared for him, he couldn’t stay angry anymore . “You too, why did you mention Xia Qingwei for no reason? I’ve been married to you for so many years, yet why do you still care about what she does . It’s just I was already troubled by matters at work and you kept dragging the conversation to Xia Qingwei, I just couldn’t stand it anymore and so I wanted to go out . ”
“Would… wouldn’t it be good if you could just explain it to me? You can tell me about what’s troubling you at work too . Even if I might not know anything, and can’t help you much, it will be good for you to just have a listening ear . ” Xia Qingyang showed her meek demeanor . “Qiyuan, I won’t keep mentioning Xia Qingwei anymore, I know I was wrong . In the future, if anything is troubling you, just tell me, don’t bottle it up, it just makes my heart ache . ”
“Alright . ” Lu Qiyuan finally smiled .
This is what Xia Qingyang should be!
As expected, it was because Xia Qingyang cared too much about him that she overstepped her boundaries .
“Mom, Dad just got back . Because he was worried about you, he didn’t bother changing out of his clothes . Let Dad change first,” Lu Qi thoughtfully mentioned, standing at the side .
Xia Qingyang hurriedly let go of Lu Qiyuan’s arm . As if he was everything to her, she said, “Lu Qiyuan, don’t worry about me . ”
“I’m already back, how could I not care about you?” Lu Qiyuan said .
“Dad, Mom, just now you didn’t even eat much for dinner . I’ll get Auntie Chen to prepare something . ”
After Lu Qiyuan nodded to her, Lu Qi left the bedroom, leaving Lu Qiyuan and Xia Qingyang behind .
