Could he forgive her for Qiao Qiao's sake?
Time passed bit by bit. Hongyan only ate and slept. She found that she was becoming more and more like a pig. She had already passed the most difficult period and seemed to have accepted the fact that Adam hated her. After all, that man seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth after that day at the hospital. There was no trace of him.
Hongyan would sometimes comfort herself by thinking that Adam was already being lenient by not killing her to vent his anger. Moreover, her current life was not bad. Whether it was the food or the things she used, they were all top-notch. He did not treat her unfairly. To be able to do this was already extremely benevolent. If she still hoped that he would come to see her, that would be too shameless.
Hongyan was a girl with a big heart. Her experience since young made her very good at adjusting her emotions.
No matter how big a blow she received, she could recover in the shortest time possible. This was also considered a good point.
A week passed and Hongyan was already able to chat and laugh with the nurses who took care of her.
In order to not let Qiao Qiao know about Hongyan's situation, Adam used all kinds of excuses. Qiao Qiao was not stupid and also noticed the clues.
"Is Ah Yan also injured? Is that why she can't come to see me? "
Qiao Qiao questioned.
Adam's body stiffened. He turned around mechanically and said: "Why are you suddenly saying this? Didn't I say it already? That girl doesn't dare to see you and left under the guise of traveling. It will probably be a few days before she comes back. "
"Then why can't I contact her?"
"… Probably because her phone ran out of battery."
"It ran out of battery the first time I called, but every time I call, it just so happens that it runs out of battery?"
"… Oh right, she said that she was going to a forest. You know, there is no signal in the forest."
"Adam!"
Qiao Qiao said angrily. This man was still planning to continue lying to her.
At this moment, a hand pressed down on her shoulder and gently patted her shoulder as if to calm her down. Qiaoqiao exhaled and said in a low voice, "Ernest, I'm fine. Don't worry …"
The man patted her gently again as if to respond.
Qiao Qiao was an easy-going person. People like this actually got along very well. He Shaochen was introduced by Freya, so Qiao Qiao was more tolerant of him. The two of them had a strange tacit understanding, so they got along very well.
He Shaochen was very satisfied with the current situation.
Adam, on the other hand, was very unhappy with He Shaochen's smug expression.
"Adam, you promised me that you would never lie to me."
Qiao Qiao.
Adam: "…"
"Tell me, did something happen to Ah Yan? It's not that she doesn't dare to come and see me, it's that she doesn't have a way for me to come and see her, right? "
Adam: "…"
"Why aren't you saying anything?"
Adam: "…"
Qiao Qiao suddenly had a bad feeling. She said in a trembling voice: "Is Ah Yan already …"
Adam seemed to have guessed that Qiao Qiao was thinking the wrong way. He quickly said: "No, don't think too much."
"Then tell me where Ah Yan is! Why haven't I seen her for so many days? Is she seriously injured? Tell me! "
Qiao Qiao's questioning made Adam understand that the truth could not be kept secret. No matter how tightly he kept the news, Qiao Qiao would still find out.
He sighed and did not intend to hide it anymore. He told her the truth: "Yes, Ah Yan is seriously injured. She's recovering now. When she's better, we'll go and see her, okay?"
"I want to go now!"
Qiao Qiao said stubbornly.
"Lilith …"
"Ah Yan … Did she get hurt because of me?"
Qiao Qiao choked.
Adam did not say anything.
Qiao Qiao continued: "She got hurt because of me. How can I not go and see her?"
"She blames herself for what happened to you …"
"Blames herself?"
Qiao Qiao laughed. "Why is she blaming herself? It's not Ah Yan's responsibility to protect me. She got into trouble for no reason. Why is she blaming herself? It's because of me that she got into trouble. I should be the one apologizing. Anyway, I want to see Ah Yan! "
Qiao Qiao was resolute and did not listen to any advice.
Adam could only look at He Shaochen, hoping that he could think of a way to persuade Qiao Qiao. Who knew that this bastard would change sides and support Qiao Qiao completely, ignoring the friendship they had built before. Adam immediately regretted helping this bastard.
In the end, Adam still could not persuade Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao went to Hongyan's ward. Hongyan was having an injection at that time.
"Ah Yan."
Qiao Qiao called out to Hongyan.
Hongyan looked at the door in shock. When she saw Qiao Qiao's face, all the blood drained from her face. The facade of peace that she had built with great difficulty also collapsed at this moment. She had not seen Qiao Qiao for the past few days, so when she saw Qiao Qiao's injury, she completely understood.
She and Adam could not go back.
"Qiao Qiao …"
Hongyan said in a trembling voice.
"Ah Yan, I heard …"
"I'm sorry!"
Hongyan immediately apologized. Qiao Qiao was shocked. Then, she heard Hongyan's sobbing voice. "Qiao Qiao, I'm sorry. I didn't protect you well. You can hit me or scold me. I'm really sorry. I'm really, really sorry …"
Although apologizing would not solve anything, Hongyan could not think of any other solution except for apologizing.
Qiao Qiao was most worried about this situation. She knew that Hongyan would definitely blame herself, but she did not expect Hongyan to blame herself to this extent. She said, "It's not your fault. Speaking of which, I implicated you and caused you to get hurt. I'm sorry."
Hongyan shook her head. "No, if I was stronger, you wouldn't have been taken away. If I was more careful, I wouldn't have given those people a chance. It's my fault."
The two of them apologized to each other and took the blame.
An hour later, Qiao Qiao almost had no energy to continue arguing.
She fumbled for Hongyan's hand and said, "If we keep apologizing like this, the day will be over. Ah Yan, I've never blamed you for this. On the contrary, I'm very grateful for your magnanimity. Since both of us feel that we're at fault, then let's call it even, okay? I forgive you, and you forgive me. "
Hongyan was still choking. "But your face …"
Qiao Qiao shrugged. "It's already like this. I can only take one step at a time. It's best if my face can recover, but if not, I still have to go on, right?"
Hongyan's biggest worry was Qiao Qiao's injury. She was most afraid that Qiao Qiao would hate her, but as she thought, Qiao Qiao was very magnanimous and did not mean to blame her.
Hongyan suddenly had an idea. Since Qiao Qiao did not blame her, would Adam forgive her for Qiao Qiao's sake?
She glanced behind Qiao Qiao, but did not see Adam. She could not help but ask, "Qiao Qiao, where's Adam?"
Seeing that Hongyan asked about Adam, Qiao Qiao was a little annoyed. She said, "We originally planned to come together, but that guy said that he suddenly had something urgent to do. No matter what I said, he insisted on leaving. When he comes back, I'll kidnap him and bring him to see you."
"No need!"
Hongyan said quickly.
"Ah Yan?"
Qiao Qiao was puzzled. From Hongyan's tone, she should be looking forward to Adam coming to see her. Why did she change her mind?
