I'll Give You a Chance
That night.
They made love to each other.
After the warmth, Qiaoqiao leaned on He Shaochen's solid chest and let her imagination run wild. She really hoped that she could suddenly get pregnant, just like in TV novels, where a mother's status depended on her child.
When that time came, Mother He would probably treat her better for the sake of the child, right?
But the moment that thought came to her mind, Qiao Qiao shook her head. Was she crazy? Was the birth of the child just a tool for her to please Mother He? Wasn't that too sad?
Qiao Qiao, you're really crazy.
Her head swayed in front of He Shaochen's chest and he helplessly poked her forehead. "What nonsense are you thinking about again?"
Qiao Qiao came back to her senses and looked up at her husband. No matter what, his face was still so handsome. She would never get tired of looking at it. She hugged him even tighter and clung to him.
"Shaochen, I really hope that time will stop at this moment and we'll never be apart." After the pleasure, she couldn't help but want to say some words of love.
But someone wanted to spoil the mood.
"Oh? Did I not satisfy you just now? "
Qiao Qiao was speechless. It was such a good atmosphere, so why did he always have to say such dirty things? Did he know how to read the atmosphere?
"You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
She asked unhappily. It was really hard on him to be able to so accurately destroy the beautiful atmosphere she had painstakingly created.
He Shaochen heard that and flipped over, pressing Qiao Qiao on top of him. He raised his brows and said, "How did I do it on purpose? You said that you wanted time to stop at the moment after we had sex. Didn't you want to enjoy the process? Don't tell me you … "
Without waiting for He Shaochen to finish, He Shaochen's mouth was blocked by Qiao Qiao.
She was also extremely embarrassed as she glared at him with a red face. Gritting her teeth, she said, "You're really too much. I must be crazy to say those things to you!"
He Shaochen, however, chuckled as he pried Qiao Qiao's fingers open one by one. Finally, he bit her fingertips lightly, causing her to tremble uncontrollably.
Her face was flushed red, and her amber eyes were shockingly bright under the light. She looked straight at him, a little like a frightened little animal.
Her appearance really made people want to bully her.
He Shaochen chuckled, leaned over Qiao Qiao's shoulder, and bit her small earlobe. Before she could dodge, he said, "Qiao Qiao, I love you."
Qiao Qiao paused and looked at him blankly. Then, she immediately hugged He Shaochen tightly and whispered, "Shaochen, I love you too."
The next morning.
Qiao Qiao was half-asleep when she seemed to see He Shaochen taking medicine.
Medicine.
She suddenly woke up and stared straight at the dosage He Shaochen swallowed. It was twice as much as before.
The dosage was increased.
Thinking about how He Shaochen's body temperature was much lower than normal people's, Qiao Qiao couldn't help but recall the last time He Shaochen was seriously ill and in a coma. It made her shudder.
He Shaochen seemed to sense that Qiao Qiao had woken up. He turned his head and saw that Qiao Qiao's eyes were wide open as she stared straight at him.
He Shaochen naturally put the glass of water aside and rubbed Qiao Qiao's head. He said, "Did I wake you up? Sorry. "
Qiao Qiao shook her head. She reached out to hold his hand and rubbed her face against it.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and muttered softly, "Shaochen, the dosage of the medicine you took has increased."
He Shaochen's eyes flashed. His gaze instinctively shifted to the medicine bottle at the side. After a second, he smiled casually and said, "You must be imagining things. It was about the same in the past."
Was that so?
Qiao Qiao didn't think so.
She pursed her lips and continued, "But you used to only take two to three pills. Now, you're taking six pills at once."
"..."
He Shaochen was stunned and looked at her quietly.
Qiao Qiao tightened her grip on He Shaochen's hand. His hand was icy cold, and she panicked. She could only hold on tighter and tighter.
She spoke as though she was stating a fact. "That coma affected your body, didn't it? You were afraid that I would feel burdened, so you hid it from me. "
"You're overthinking it."
"Am I overthinking it? I can feel it." Qiao Qiao took a deep breath and said calmly, "When Youran comes back, I will definitely ask her about the prescription. If she was really involved, I won't hold back."
He Shaochen couldn't help but laugh when he heard that. He said half-jokingly, "Oh? She's your good sister. I used to think that you were lesbians. If she really did it, would you bear to touch her? "
You're the lesbians!
Qiao Qiao glared at him angrily, but she wasn't in the mood to joke with him. "Because we're sisters, I believe that she won't harm you. So, I have to get to the bottom of this. I'm afraid that she doesn't know that she's being used."
Although there was no conclusive evidence, Qiao Qiao vaguely felt that this matter had something to do with Hao Youran's mysterious boyfriend.
But if that was the case, Youran would be in a dilemma.
Qiao Qiao sighed. She hoped that she was overthinking it.
"I'll deal with it. You don't have to worry about it."
He already had some clues about the prescription, but he didn't want Qiao Qiao to be involved in the dark unless it was a last resort.
He Shaochen pinched Qiao Qiao's cheeks, only to find that the flesh on his face that he had worked so hard to gain was gone again.
He carefully examined Qiao Qiao's face. She was as beautiful as ever, but she had lost a lot of weight.
In prison, no matter how good the food was, people would lose weight quickly if their mental state was poor.
Qiao Qiao didn't know that. She continued, "I know that there are few things that I can do, but I also hope that I can do more for you."
He Shaochen knew that Qiao Qiao was blaming herself because of the prescription, so he didn't refuse. He just bent down and kissed her lips, saying, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
"Well, I believe in you."
The two of them continued to be lovey-dovey for a while.
In the end, He Shaochen didn't tell Qiao Qiao if there were any side effects after he fell into a coma.
When Qiao Qiao got up and got dressed, she looked at the medicine bottle that He Shaochen placed by the bed. She felt an inexplicable sense of panic. She closed her eyes and hypnotized herself.
Qiao Qiao, Shaochen will be fine. He will be fine.

After packing up, Qiao Qiao decided to negotiate with Mother He again.
She and He Shaochen stood at the entrance of the hospital.
Looking at the people coming and going in the hospital, Qiao Qiao's heart kept beating faster. Mother He's cold words yesterday still echoed in her ears. She didn't see her, but she could almost imagine what Mother He would say to her.
He Shaochen grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "Don't worry. I'm here."
Qiao Qiao tried hard to squeeze out a smile and said, "It's okay if I get humiliated. I'm afraid that Mother will be too angry and her angina will relapse."
She definitely couldn't get angry about that kind of illness, but Mother He would get angry whenever she saw her.
Seeing how worried Qiao Qiao was, He Shaochen said, "If it really doesn't work, I'll move out of Family He. We can talk about anything, but if you want me to give up on you, don't even think about it."
He Shaochen's words were very reassuring and sweet.
Qiao Qiao gave him a faint smile, but in her heart, she knew that many things were out of her control.
Of course, she understood He Shaochen's feelings for her and his feelings for her. But when his mother threatened him with death, what could he do?
Watch helplessly as his mother died with hatred?
If he was really that kind of person, she wouldn't have fallen in love with him.
The two of them went to the intensive care unit where Mother He was. Mother He had just gotten out of bed. She tilted her head and looked at the scenery outside the window. Her expression was indifferent, and her delicate face was covered with a layer of haggard.
When Mother He heard the door open, she turned her head to look. When her gaze fell on Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao felt a strong sense of hatred.
This time, Mother He didn't go crazy like yesterday. She was much calmer.
Perhaps it was because she had been injected with a tranquilizer.
She only said coldly, "Miss Qiao, please leave."
If anyone could completely defeat Qiao Qiao's will with just a few words, it had to be Mother He.
Qiao Qiao's face was pale. She pursed her lips like a child who had made a mistake. "Mom, I know I've made an unforgivable mistake. It's very thick-skinned of me to come and see you now. But I still want to ask you to let me stay in Family He. As long as you agree, I'll do anything..."
Mother He heard this and sneered. "Let you stay in Family He? Don't tell me you don't think it's enough to hurt my son once? Do you want to hurt him again? "
Qiao Qiao's body trembled. Her face was almost pale. She shook her head and said, "No... I didn't."
"Mom, about the prescription, I believe that Qiao Qiao's intentions were good. I will send someone to investigate the source of the prescription. Please don't insist that Qiao Qiao harmed me." He Shaochen spoke up for Qiao Qiao.
Mother He looked at He Shaochen with resentment in her eyes. "Shaochen, in any case, you believe that woman rather than your own mother, right?"
"I'm not siding with anyone. I only believe in the truth."
"You …" Mother He was a little angry again. This son of hers, sometimes when he was stubborn, he really made people helpless.
Mother He clutched her chest and let out a long sigh. "Did you guys come all the way here just to piss me off to death?"
"We didn't mean that."
"I think you just want to anger me to death so that you can do whatever you want."
"..."
Mother He didn't listen to advice at all. No matter what they said or did, it would be misunderstood as an ulterior motive. He Shaochen didn't know what to do.
Originally, they wanted to see whose attitude was tougher. Who knew that Mother He would suffer from angina? If they continued to be tough, Mother He's condition would worsen.
Just as they didn't know what to do, Mother He suddenly relented.
"Miss Qiao, do you really love my son?"
Qiao Qiao was stunned and quickly nodded. "Yes, I love him!"
A trace of contempt flashed across Mother He's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She continued to look at Qiaoqiao and said indifferently, "You said you're willing to do anything, right? Well, I'll give you another chance. "
It was a pleasant surprise.
