Explaining the Misunderstanding
He Shaochen kept quiet and nodded under Adam's displeased gaze. "Then I'll go check on her first. If there's anything, I'll call you."
With that, he walked in. Adam frowned and was about to follow him in, but at that moment, Eve pulled him back and shook her head. "I think Princess's words are very reasonable. Right now, the person the Queen wants to see the most should be Mr. He. We should give them some space alone and let them have a good chat. This is good for both of them. If we keep watching from the side, they might not be able to open their hearts."
Adam clenched his hands into fists. The anger in his heart was hard to calm. He looked at Eve and said unhappily, "Eve, are you really not on He Shaochen's side? Why are you speaking for him? "
Eve blinked, showing that she was innocent. She raised her eyebrows and said, "If I said that I did all this for you, would you believe me?"
The thing Adam didn't want to see the most was Lilith sad. He Shaochen went in to explain to her. The two of them untied the knot in their hearts and everyone was happy. This was a win-win situation. Eve knew that as long as Lilith was happy, Adam would naturally be happy.
And as long as Adam was happy, she would also be happy.
But it was a bit pretentious to say it like that. Eve smiled faintly. "Don't think of Queen Lilith as too weak. She's much stronger than you think. She's a very rational woman. If you communicate well, the knot in your heart will be untied."
Adam stared at Eve for a while. He couldn't see any falsehood in her blue eyes. Actually, when he thought about it, Eve's words weren't without reason. He always knew in his heart that the person Lilith wanted to see the most was He Shaochen. It was just that he was unwilling to accept this fact.
"Then let's wait here." Adam compromised, but it was obvious that he was still very unwilling. Eve saw his frown and suggested, "The Little Highnesses are in the incubator now, right? Aren't you going to take a look? "
This reminded Adam. Thinking of the two cute children, he nodded and said, "Lilith and Mr. He will probably talk for a while. I'll go check on the little princes."
"I'll accompany you." Eve smiled.
Adam cast a sidelong glance at her. Eve's smile had an indescribable charm to it. He had once thought that Eve's beauty was too sharp and arrogant, but the more he looked at her, the more he liked her. She was indeed a very beautiful woman. He looked at her and paused for a moment before nodding. "Okay."

He Shaochen looked at the exhausted Qiao Qiao lying limp on the bed. Her face was as pale as a sheet of white paper. She was on the verge of death. Giving birth had taken away all her strength.
There was a trace of pity in his dark eyes. His heart ached slightly, but it didn't seem to be as painful as he imagined. He Shaochen thought that he would lose control and run over to Qiao Qiao, but in fact, he walked slowly toward Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao's condition wasn't as good as the doctor said. Her breathing was very heavy. It seemed that if she didn't breathe hard, she could suffocate to death at any time.
For the first time, she realized that giving birth could be so painful. When giving birth, she was in so much pain that she wanted to die. After giving birth, she continued to be in pain. There was no part of her body that didn't hurt. Some parts of her body were numb from the pain. It was as if her strength had been sucked out. Even blinking became difficult.
Hearing extremely soft footsteps, Qiaoqiao struggled to open her eyes. What entered her eyes was a handsome face that was both familiar and unfamiliar to her.
Under the light, it was as if a god had descended. It was so dazzling that Qiao Qiao didn't even have the strength to be surprised. Wasn't this man with Xia Xi preparing for the wedding? Why did he suddenly appear here?
As expected, was she so tired that she was hallucinating?
Qiao Qiao thought to herself.
But even so, she still tried to raise her head, wanting to touch this person. It seemed that if she didn't do so, she wouldn't have a chance in the future.
He Shaochen sat on the edge of the bed. He held the soft hand and kissed it. "Sorry, I'm late."
"You're really here? Shaochen? "
She thought it was an illusion, but it was the real person.
She hated this man very much when she gave birth. She hated his indifference, his heartlessness, and the fact that he had another woman outside. But when she saw him in person, she still wanted to cry.
She still wanted to see him.
Qiao Qiao, you're so useless.
She used the last of her strength to speak. Her voice was so soft that it was almost muffled. "I've heard many rumors about you …"
"They're all fake!" He Shaochen said without hesitation. His tone was so casual, as if it was nothing serious.
"But I heard from your mother that you and Xia Xi …"
"Xia Xi was deliberately put by my mother to be by my side, but I have nothing to do with her. Even if they have ulterior motives, I will never let them succeed." He Shaochen's voice was very steady and calm. No one could tell that he was lying.
Such a calm and unruffled attitude was not something a person who had done something wrong could possess.
It was such a deep misunderstanding, but He Shaochen easily overturned it.
Qiao Qiao felt that her impulsive jealousy was a joke. She lowered her eyes and continued, "But I heard from Lingyu that you and Miss Xia have already slept together. Is that true?"
"Nonsense." He Shaochen said. His voice was slightly cold. "Lingyu has already been bribed by my mother. His words can't be trusted."
"There's no smoke without fire. If you really have nothing to do with each other, why would there be such a misunderstanding? And why would your mother specifically pick out Xia Xi?" Qiao Qiao looked at him seriously, seeking an answer.
Xia Xi wasn't outstanding in any aspect. She was so ordinary that she didn't stand out at all.
With He Shaochen's mother's personality, it was impossible for her to purposely pick Xia Xi to be deliberately mystifying. He Shaochen must have treated Xia Xi differently, which was why He Shaochen's mother was able to take advantage of this opportunity.
He Shaochen paused for a moment, then said, "I definitely didn't sleep with Xia Xi. Otherwise, she wouldn't still be alive."
He would mercilessly get rid of those women who approached him with ulterior motives.
"Then why did you visit her in the hospital?"
"She was hit by my car. I'm the perpetrator, so I should go and see her. I know the rumors outside are ridiculous, but this is the truth. When you get better, I'll put all the evidence in front of you."
Every doubtful point, every misunderstanding, was clearly explained by He Shaochen. He said it as if it was a matter of course, as if it was the truth. There was not a single flaw in it. The rumors outside were all destroyed by themselves.
Qiao Qiao couldn't help but bitterly laugh. "It seems that I'm not very rational. How could I be deceived by such rumors? And because of that, I even gave birth prematurely. I'm still immature."
She took a deep breath. She felt that it was a little difficult to breathe.
Talking was a little difficult, and she was a little sleepy. However, Qiao Qiao tried her best not to fall asleep. She had a feeling that if she fell asleep this time, she probably wouldn't wake up. So, she had to stay awake and ask all the questions she wanted to ask.
Her hand was held in He Shaochen's hand, as if he was holding happiness in his hand.
After hearing her words, He Shaochen shook his head. He used his free hand to tidy up Qiao Qiao's sweat-soaked hair and said, "No, it's not your fault. I didn't understand you. I've been sulking at you in A Country. I even said too much and caused you to misunderstand. It's all my fault. I didn't do my duty as a husband. You didn't blame me and even gave birth to two lovely children for me. Qiao Qiao, you've done very well."
After comparing the reactions of Adam and Qiao Qiao, He Shaochen knew that it was not Qiao Qiao who stopped him outside the Shengyao Palace.
This was probably Adam's idea.
Qiao Qiao looked at He Shaochen with tears in her eyes. Such a mature, rational, and considerate husband should be what she wanted to see the most.
But why did she feel a little depressed in her heart?
She couldn't control the sadness in her heart. Qiao Qiao pursed her lips. He Shaochen's image was reflected in her amber eyes. She opened her mouth and said in a hoarse voice, "Shaochen, can I ask you a question?"
He Shaochen looked down at her and stroked her head. He nodded and said, "Sure, what do you want to ask?"
