Chapter 60: Cold War, Words Hesitant on the Lips

er a while, she showed an embarrassed expression, "Forget it, just keep going.""Miss, you look a little pale." The taxi driver turned his head to look at her and said with concern.Joe Baoer smiled, "I...The phone's ringtone echoed repeatedly, sounding rather jarring in the otherwise silent hospital room.

Yi Sicheng's face was complex as he looked at his phone. He knew it was Ye Xi calling to urge him to go back...

At this moment, he didn't want to leave.

"Cousin, aren't you here in town because of your wedding Remember to send me a wedding invitation when the time comes. Both I and your aunt will be there on time..." Junzhi Mu looked at him, his cold voice carrying an unclear meaning as he spoke.

Yi Sicheng's face instantly darkened when he heard his words.

"Yi Sicheng, you should go back."

qiao ba'er was afraid they would fight again like this morning. in terms of skill, if jun zhi mu got really angry, he could definitely cripple him.

"What about you" Yi Sicheng asked with concern.

"Don't you think I would do something to her!"

Seeing the two of them so affectionate, Junzhi Mu's face darkened.

He then sneered coldly, "The Qiao family is right in the parking lot. They'll be coming up in a while. Let them see you two here being so affectionate..."

Yisichen's face flashed with complexity when he heard that people from the Qiao family had arrived.

He looked at Qiao Bao'er across from him and said quickly, "Bao'er, take good care of yourself. Call me directly if anything happens."

He didn't press further. He and Qiao Bao'er were previously married, and he is now legally married to Ye Xi. The situation was complicated, and any misunderstanding could directly affect their reputations.

Qiao Baoer saw him leave, and did not have too much nostalgia. She turned her face, in a bad mood, and walked directly to the bedside.

But Jun's shepherd stared at Yi Sicheng's back with a deep, gloomy gaze, his right hand slightly clenched into a fist as if annoyed by something.

This sentence, when it reached his ears, was particularly unpleasant!

Why didn't she call me if she had something to do, but instead found Yi Sicheng...

Members of the Qiao family came to visit Qiao Bao'er, but they all found that Jun Zhimu's face in the ward was gloomy and unpleasant, as if someone had angered him before.

"Bao'er, you really are too careless. How could you eat random things Thankfully, the baby is safe." Old Mrs. Qiao, who had recovered from her last hospital visit for high blood pressure, was now scolding her in a loud voice.

The old man turned his head, and that face creased with wrinkles broke into a fawning smile. "Young Master Jun, Miss Bao'er has been pampered and spoiled by our Qiao family since she was little, so she has a bit of a temperamental disposition. She doesn't know any better, please don't take it to heart too much, she will surely change her ways..."

Qiao Bao'er was scolded as worthless. She lay on the bed, her back to them, not even bothering to glance at them.

And Qiao Wenyu was forced to come over by Old Madam Qiao. He just glanced at Qiao Baier on the hospital bed indifferently, as if he didn't care whether she was seriously ill or not.

On the contrary, Qiao Wenyu's gaze occasionally fell on Jun Zhi牧, his eyes suppressing deep contemplation.

"Bao'er, you need to take good care of your health. I made some Ejiao (Chinese tonic) soup for you. It's said to be particularly effective for heavy bleeding. Drink some while it's hot."

As the daughter-in-law of the Qiao family, Ye Wei came over with Qiao Wenyu. She had a caring smile on her face and placed a ceramic bowl on the table.

Grandma Qiao saw that Qiao Bao'er was lying in bed and ignoring them, and she immediately became displeased. "How could you forget even the most basic manners!"

If it weren't for Junzhi being here, he would have started yelling by now. He suppressed his anger and said, "Get up quickly, drink the Ejiao tonic your stepmom cooked, the baby is important!"

Jo Bao'er lay on the sickbed with a dark face, pretending not to hear as she refused to move.

She needs to rest.

The silent Jun Zhimu, after looking around at them, suddenly spoke in a cold voice.

This is clearly a message to get rid of us.

When the Qiao family heard him say this, they didn't stay long. After exchanging some polite greetings, they left.

Only at last, Ye Wei couldn't help but glance more at Jun Zhi Mu's side profile, her heart filled with both suspicion and apprehension.

He had Ye Xi call Yi Sicheng away, then personally called Grandma Qiao to have the Qiao family come to the hospital. What was he doing all these strange things for

"What on earth do you want"

This sentence, Junzhi Mu heard several times today, but this time, the one asking was her.

Everyone from the Qiao family has already left, the hospital room door is ajar, and at this moment there are only he and she in the room.

"Did you have the Qiao family come over to bother me"

Qiao Bao'er met his gaze with a cold face, "Where is your Miss Liu Don't you need to accompany her What do you want here Just say it!" Her tone was cold and distant.

Junzhi Mu stood by the bedside, while she lay flat.

His eyes looked down on her, and Qiao Baoer distinctly saw the slight curl of his lips as if he wanted to speak. But after waiting for several minutes, the man remained silent.

"Last night, Yi Sichen and I locked ourselves in the ward. We didn't do anything."

She thought he was only here to accuse and reprimand her. It seemed that men were justified in cheating and keeping mistresses, while women who even had a slight flirtation with other men were considered unfaithful.

At this moment, she wore her anger openly on her face, glaring at him with a dark expression.

Jun Zhi Mu looked at her, but remained silent.

Qiao Baoer felt that he didn't believe her, and her anger grew even more intense.

Why should I explain! What he has to do with Liu Yiyin and their nonsense... The more I think about it, the angrier I get. I grabbed the white bedsheet and threw it over my head, out of sight, out of mind!

Remembering Liu Yiy, she tightened her grip on the blanket even more.

Even if you give birth to this bastard, even if I become its stepmother later, I will abuse it because it's an eyesore.

That day in the private room of the restaurant, Liu Yiyin put on an air of arrogance and swaggered. She really wanted to retort, but those words got stuck in her throat, as if she felt inferior.

Qiao Bao'er's eyes held a trace of sadness, and her right hand unconsciously stroked her abdomen.

"After giving birth to the child, I'll leave," she thought to herself, "Old Master Jun shouldn't let his grandson be bullied..."

Thinking of the old man in Jun's family, Qiao Bao'er's eyes lit up, as if she had found a glimmer of hope.

She threw back the quilt covering her head, a bit frantic to find her phone. Right now, she wanted to call Old Man Jun.

But as soon as Qiao Bao'er’s quilt was lifted, a low and enigmatic voice came from above her head, “Don’t move.”

She was tense, her eyes narrowed as she looked at the man by the bed. He hadn't left!

"The doctor said you have to stay in the hospital for a week," Jun Zhi Mu's voice sounded a little strange, as if he had deliberately smoothed out his tone, "and you can't get out of bed."

Qiao Bao'er retracted her hand and didn't go looking for her phone anymore. She obediently lay back down on the bed.

Jun Zhi Mu looked at her for a long time, his heart struggling.

She's usually not this well-behaved!

Suddenly, I remembered what Lu Qinian had said before, women, if you don't make things clear to them, they will overthink.ps his feelings at the time were just like hers now, cautious and anxious.As soon as I arrived at Jun's place, the fifth call came through. A familiar, deep voice came from the phone, "Have you gotten...
