Chapter 256: Have You Thought It Through
Jiang Xin arrived the next day. After having a rough idea about Qin Muxuan’s condition these few days, she went upstairs.
Jiang Xin knocked on the door.
“Come in, please.” Qin Muxuan replied. Getting permission, Jiang Xin pushed open the door.
Qin Muxuan raised her head, finding it was Jiang Xin. She forced a smile at the doctor. “Hey.”
“What’s going on? You’ve been stable recently.” Jiang Xin gazed at Qin Muxuan apprehensively.
The gravida shook her head, not knowing how to answer the doctor’s question. Qin Muxuan didn’t mean to do so, but she couldn’t control herself.
Noticing Qin Muxuan didn’t intend to tell her, Jiang Xin put the question to rest. “Mr. Yin told me that you would go back to China. Have you thought it through?”
“I miss Xiaobai.”
“What about that man? Have you thought about the consequences if he finds you?” Jiang Xin scowled at Qin Muxuan.
Qin Muxuan had told Jiang Xin everything about her and Gu Zijin. Jiang Xin knew it was an unwise decision when things had just cooled down in China.
“I’ll be careful.” No matter what happened this time, Qin Muxuan would return and visit Qin Xiaobai. She felt she might not hold on for too long.
Her unborn baby and Qin Xiaobai who was in China were the only light of hope in her life. Without them, she could have died long ago.
Qin Muxuan had made up her mind, so Jiang Xin said nothing. She hypnotized Qin Muxuan as usual.
When the patient woke up, the doctor had left. Qin Muxuan glimpsed at the dreary sky through the window. She then rose to her feet and went downstairs.
As soon as Yin Youting stepped out of the kitchen, he found Qin Muxuan. He beamed, “Dinner’s ready. Come here.”
The woman was astonished. ‘Did I sleep through the daytime?’ Yin Youting hadn’t cooked for a long time. She didn’t expect that he would prepare the dinner by himself today.
Qin Muxian sat at the table. Peering at the dishes, she felt better.
“Come on. Enjoy yourself.” Serving the last dish, Yin Youting smiled at Qin Muxuan.
She picked up the chopsticks and fed herself.
“Is it good?” Yin Youting stared at Qin Muxuan without blinking.
Qin Muxuan noticed that. The ghost of a smile lifted the corner of her lips. “You’re an excellent cook.”
“I haven’t prepared dishes for days. I was afraid that I would mess up.” Sitting opposite Qin Muxuan, he poured her a cup of juice. “You should have more.”
Nodding, Qin Muxuan was neck-deep in the food. Yin Youting prepared Qin Muxuan’s favorite every time he cooked. Although her appetite was not that good, she binged on the tasty food.
After a while, Qin Muxuan detected that Yin Youting was gazing at her. She was embarrassed. “Have some!” Qin Muxuan offered Yin Youting a rib.
“Okay.” He grinned and bit the rib.
Noticing Yin Youting started to eat, she was relieved. Qin Muxuan ate more than usual tonight.
Yin Youting’s eyes followed Qin Muxuan who sat on the sofa. He gave her a glass of water. “If I had known that before, I would have cooked by myself every day.”
“You don’t have to! That will be too much trouble for you!” Qin Muxuan refused, frowning.
‘I’m much indebted to him. He’s done me so many favors.’
“I’m okay with that.” Yin Youting looked into her eyes. Qin Muxuan felt embarrassed when their eyes met.
There was an awkward silence. Yin Youting broke the silence. “Well, I’ve booked the tickets to China the day after tomorrow. You can meet Xiaobai at that time.”
In fact, Yin Youting also worried about Qin Xiaobai. After all, he thought he had lost his mother. The kid must be disconsolate.
“Great! I’ll start packing later.” Delighted, Qin Muxuan smiled broadly. It might be the best news she had received since she came here.
“Just sit here. Emily will do that. Your wrist is hurt.”
Although her previous gashes almost recovered, the fresh wounds were just bound up.
“I’m fine. I don’t feel pain.” Qin Muxuan showed the cup in her hand, saying. “Look! I can hold a water glass.”
“Well.” Yin Youting looked at Qin Muxuan helplessly. He had no choice but to nod.
Noticing that, Qin Muxuan rushed upstairs to pack her bags. Yin Youting noticed her haste, so he didn’t say anything to stop her. He then headed to the study to deal with his work.
Though Qin Muxuan had been living in Yin Youting’s place for some time, she didn’t purchase too much stuff. She packed up all her clothes.
After that, Qin Muxuan had a shower.
Yin Youting fetched the medical box from downstairs after finishing his work. He stood in front of Qin Muxuan’s room and knocked on the door.
No one answered, so he raised his hand and repeated. “Xuan, it’s me.”
He waited for a while but silence occupied the room, so he directly opened the door and strode in.
The moment he walked in, she walked out of the bathroom with wet hair.
“What’s wrong, Youting?” The woman grabbed a towel to wipe her hair, but noticed a strange expression on the man’s face.
She realized that she walked out in nothing but a fluffy white towel. Hastily, she put on a bathrobe.
Seeing that, Yin Youting walked over and showed her the medical box. “It’s time to change your dressing.”
“I can do it myself.”
“With one hand?”
Qin Muxuan was embarrassed. ‘Well, it’s not easy with one hand.’
Sitting on the chair, she saw Yin Youting remove the bandage. Though Qin Muxuan tried her best to protect her left hand from water when she had taken a shower just now, the bandage still got wet.
“Be careful next time. Your wounds shouldn’t be soaked.” Noticing the gashes in Qin Muxuan’s wrist became inflamed, Yin Youting exhorted frowningly.
“Okay.” Qin Muxuan nodded.
“How long are we gonna stay in China?”
Qin Muxuan had been too overjoyed to ask Yin Youting that.
“One week.” Yin Youting went back to China for another reason which was to discuss with Yin Tiancheng starting a branch in M Country.
“I’ll help you visit Qin Xiaobai during that week, but you’d better not contact anyone after we arrive in China.”
Hearing that, Qin Muxuan was voiceless for a while. She understood Yin Youting’s intention. For others, Qin Muxuan was dead. If Gu Zijin or Elderly Lady Gu discovered that she had contacted someone, Yin Youting’s efforts would be in vain.
Thinking about that, Qin Muxuan nodded.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Yin Youting cautiously dressed her gashes. Finding Qin Muxuan’s hair was wet, he took out a hair dryer from a drawer.
Noticing Yin Youting was about to help her dry her hair, Qin Muxuan hastily refused. “Youting, I can…”
However, the man stopped her. “You might wet the bandage again.”
Qin Muxuan consented helplessly. It was warm and comfortable. However, a scene popped up in her mind when she felt drowsy. Gu Zijin had also helped dry her hair like this.
