Chapter 1507 Questioning
The ward was very quiet, like the calm surface of water. After the woman finished speaking, there was no ripple.
After waiting for a while and finding no response, the woman opened her eyes strangely.
Then she noticed the man's obscure expression.
The eyes looking at her... were full of strangeness.
The woman's heart skipped a beat.
His hands on the futon were clenched into fists.
"Alin?"
"Cough cough~"
The woman began to cough heartbreakingly, her back arched, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
When she finally came to her senses, she noticed the cup of water handed to her.
She was stunned for a moment, then a smile of surprise appeared in her eyes, "Ah Lin..."
"I have something to ask you."
The man's somewhat stiff tone was like a bucket of cold water poured on the woman's head.
Although she is in a bad condition now.
But she wasn't so dull that she couldn't hear anything unusual about the man.
What happened?
Why did the man's attitude towards her change so much?
The woman was both uneasy and confused.
……
The dazed woman came back to her senses because of some movement behind her.
The bed board rose.
Her back was against the bed.
Now that she had someone to rely on, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The worries in my heart also eased a bit.
The man still cared about her.
Although I don’t know what the man is angry about, but if she softens her attitude and apologizes, everything should be fine.
She would never argue with men before.
What's more, she is not in good condition now.
At this time, she needs a man's care and concern the most.
Why would she quarrel with a man?
She just responded to whatever the man said.
……
The change in the woman's expression made the man curl his lips.
He wasn't such a nice guy that he would show any extra concern for the person who abused his daughter.
He just didn't want the conversation to be hindered by the woman's physical condition.
As long as he asked what he wanted to know and got what he wanted, he would never step into this ward again.
He will inform the woman's family.
Then, what happened to the woman was no longer within his concern.
……
"Did you cause the injuries on Qiqi's body?"
The man came straight to the point, without any preparation or beating around the bush.
The woman didn't know when she would fall into coma again.
He was not in the mood to play along with a woman.
He just wanted to know the answer.
Urgent.
Impatient.
……
The woman suddenly opened her eyes wide.
She instantly understood why the man's attitude towards her changed.
But, how could it be?
It's been so long since I found out...
The woman's expression changed constantly.
The pale cheeks were slightly blue.
……
"to be honest."
The man tried to sound calm, "You know when I saw the injuries on Qiqi's body..."
The man took a deep breath and asked, "What's your mood?"
"I am angry."
"Very angry."
"I was so angry that I wanted to kill someone."
The suppressed anger and cold brutality in the man's eyes were entangled together, like a sharp sword, piercing the woman's skin painfully.
The woman subconsciously looked away.
The veins on his clenched fists were exposed.
The joints are white.
……
"……what are you saying?"
The woman’s voice became hoarse. “I don’t understand.”
"Qiqi...is injured?"
"hehe."
The man laughed softly twice.
He was naive. He thought that as long as he told Qiqi about her injury, the woman would panic and admit her mistake and apologize.
Whether it was sincere or false, at least the woman felt guilty about hurting Kiki.
As it turned out, the woman was much more open than he thought.
She asked him back with an innocent look... Is Qiqi hurt?
Isn't she the one who knows best whether Qiqi is injured?
……
"Bang~"
Although he repeatedly told himself to stay calm, the man couldn't help but punch the bed railing hard.
The whole bed shook a few times.
The woman subconsciously grabbed the fence beside her with both hands, looking a little embarrassed.
……
"Yuan Yuan."
The man said in a low voice, "I really regret it. How could my eyes be so blind?"
"He actually fell in love with you?"
"My daughter, I never even spoke out loud to her."
He is busy with work and has limited time to spend with his daughter, so when he is with his daughter, he naturally coaxes her.
Especially when the child was young, he was always away and his daughter didn't recognize him.
In order to make his daughter close to him, he tried his best.
Later, his daughter was devastated by his wife's car accident and lost the ability to speak, which made him feel extremely distressed.
I became more cautious towards my daughter.
How dare I speak loudly to her?
……
"I……"
The woman wanted to explain, but when she saw the man's increasingly disappointed expression, she shut her mouth.
"why?"
The man barely suppressed his boiling emotions and asked, "Why do you treat Qiqi like this?"
"Qiqi is so young..."
"My wife gave her life to protect her."
"This is my daughter that my wife risked her life to buy. I won't let you ruin her!"
The man took a deep breath.
"Qiqi witnessed her mother's death."
"What a cruel thing for a child."
"It's been two years, and she still hasn't gotten over this incident."
"She couldn't make a sound."
"She's already so pathetic."
The man pressed his throbbing temple and said, "How could you have the heart to do that?!"
The woman opened her mouth slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but the man didn't give her the chance.
Now that he had opened his mouth, he wanted to say out everything that was piled up in his heart.
"You don't like Qiqi, that's fine, no problem."
"Then why did you marry me then?"
"you-"
"I like you."
The woman answered the man's question.
"What did you say?"
The woman's hoarse voice made the content a little unclear and the man couldn't hear clearly.
"I said-"
The woman sat up a little straighter, "I-like-you."
"……what?"
The man was not touched, but just found it funny. "Just because you like me, can you treat my daughter like this?"
"She is not our daughter."
The woman said seriously.
"She's another woman's daughter."
"I do not like."
There was clear disgust between the woman's brows.
"..."
The man opened and closed his mouth, but the woman's self-righteousness made him speechless.
".Why didn't you tell me if you didn't like it?"
"You won't marry me if you tell me so."
The woman's answer left the man unable to refute.
Because what the woman said was true.
He definitely cares more about his daughter than himself.
If the woman showed any dislike for his daughter during their relationship, he would not allow himself to like her.
"...You can ignore her..."
The man suppressed the momentary hesitation on his face and asked, "Why did you hurt her?"
