Qiao Anhao couldn't explain why, but the thought that surfaced in her mind made her heart beat faster. She moved her head, her gaze still lingering on the side of Lu Jinnian's face. Before she could think clearly, she blurted out, "Lu Jinnian, why do you treat me so well?"
Lu Jinnian froze for a moment, not knowing how to reply.
After Qiao Anhao asked that question, she realized what she had asked and became even more nervous. She held her breath for a long while, but when she realized that Lu Jinnian didn't react at all, she couldn't help but feel a little awkward. As though she was trying to find a way out of this embarrassing situation, she thought about it for a moment, then said, "Lu Jinnian, is it because of the child's death that you feel indebted to me? Is that why you treat me so well?"
Lu Jinnian, who was initially at a loss, secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the latter part of Qiao Anhao's sentence. He let out a soft "Mmh".
He did indeed feel indebted to her for the child's death, but even if they didn't have the child, he would still jump down without hesitation to accompany her when she was in danger.
But there were some things on his mind that he couldn't reveal to her.
Was it really because of the child that he treated her so well... A hint of disappointment surfaced in Qiao Anhao's heart, but even if he felt indebted to her, did he have to sacrifice his own life to make it up to her?
Qiao Anhao really wanted to open her mouth and ask Lu Jinnian again, but just as the words were about to leave her mouth, she suddenly stopped.
She had actually wanted to ask him, "Did you fall in love with me? Is that why you jumped off the cliff?"
Indeed, Lu Jinnian's kindness to her and the things he did for her did make her think that he liked her.
But what if he didn't?
Wouldn't that be awkward to death?
Qiao Anhao's lips quivered, but in the end, she swallowed her words back down.
Lu Jinnian, who was lying at the side, suddenly remembered something important. He turned his head and stared into her eyes, asking solemnly, "I paid the hospital a huge sum of money to keep your abortion a secret, how did you find out?"
His question broke Qiao Anhao's train of thought. She instinctively replied honestly, "A nurse from the hospital sent me a package..."
"That's not right, that nurse said that you didn't want my child and that she was an accomplice. She was filled with guilt, so she sent me the package to tell me the truth. She wanted to save herself, but I died in the womb, so why would she feel guilty?"
Lu Jinnian didn't seem to care about the latter half of her sentence. He furrowed his brows and asked, "What was in the package?"
"You signed the abortion form."
"When did you receive it?"
Qiao Anhao thought for a moment. "On my birthday …"
Didn't her birthday coincide with the day Xu Jiamu woke up?
Lu Jinnian's hands clenched into fists in the blankets. He vaguely understood what was going on.
Perhaps all of this was arranged by Han Ruchu.
