Kapitel 3: Sorry
Redakteur: Atlas Studios
Qiao Chen carefully held Xu Wan's hand. Looking at the ghastly wound on Xu Wan's palm, his heart ached. He could imagine Xu Wan, a weak woman, waiting for him to come, while her heart was flled with determination to perish together with the wicked. She was so brave that it made him pity her.
"Does it hurt?" Qiao Chen's voice had never been so gentle.
Xu Wan cried and whispered, "It doesn't hurt."
"How can it not hurt? You lost so much blood." Qiao Chen knew that Xu Wan never showed weakness in front of others.
Then, he carried Xu Wan and sent her to the hospital.
Ah De had never expected to see such a scene in his life—
His cold-blooded and heartless boss was carrying a woman in his arms. From time to time, he would lower his head and coax her. "We'll reach the hospital soon. It won't hurt anymore."
Ah De looked as if he had seen a ghost.
When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor treated Xu Wan's wound and said to Qiao Chen, who had been waiting outside the door, "The patient's wound isn't too deep. Otherwise, it would have cut into the large blood vessel. However, she was badly frightened and needs to rest."
"Can I go see her?" Qiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that Xu Wan was fine.
"Sure, but the patient is asleep now. Don't disturb her."
Qiao Chen nodded and walked into the ward. He saw Xu Wan lying on the bed with a pale face.
Qiao Chen walked forward and saw that Xu Wan's right hand was wrapped in layers of gauze. He held Xu Wan's left hand and felt that her hand was cold. He patiently warmed her hand.
After the heat had subsided, he was still reluctant to put it down. He continued to hold it in his hand.
Although Xu Wan was asleep, she was still frowning. After all, she had just suffered such a shock and was probably still a little scared.
Qiao Chen didn't expect her to live alone in a rented apartment with someone else.
Had she been living like this ever since she moved out of the Qiao family?
Qiao Chen never knew that his rejection of Xu Wan in the past would cause her to end up in such a state.
She said nothing. After knowing how much he hated her, she left without another word. She set him free and silently bore all the pressure.
Qiao Chen's heart slowly surged with pity and self-reproach.
It was all because of him that Xu Wan suffered from such pain.
"I'm sorry." Qiao Chen had never said these words to anyone before. In his world, he didn't need to apologize to anyone.
But now, even though Qiao Chen only mouthed these two words, it was an unprecedented first for him.
Xu Wan, who was in deep sleep, seemed to have sensed something and her fingers trembled.
"Are you forgiving me or scolding me?" Qiao Chen smiled helplessly.
After leaving Xu Wan's ward, Qiao Chen instructed Ah De to send someone to take good care of Xu Wan and report to him immediately if anything happened.
As for Gao Hu and his girlfriend, under Qiao Chen's arrangement, they were already on their way to the African savanna.
After Xu Wan's hand was almost healed, she was discharged and Ah De said to her, "Your things have been moved to President Qiao's house. He asked me to bring you home directly."
Xu Wan was stunned. Go to Qiao Chen's house?
Since they had moved her things to Qiao Chen's house, Xu Wan could say nothing else and could only follow Ah De.
Qiao Chen lived in a luxurious district on the Third Ring Road. The district was extremely good, and the most important thing was that the environment was not bad. The greenery was huge, and there was even a lake with excellent scenery.
After the car entered the neighborhood, they could see that a large forest separated every household, guaranteeing privacy.
"Miss Xu, the key to the house is in the box next to you. There is also a car key. If you want to go out in the future, you can just drive directly to the garage. The security in this neighborhood is very good. I heard that a few big stars are living three-story-tall here. However, every house is far away from each other. I have never seen them before. President Qiao said that he will be back soon. You can wait for him at home first."
Xu Wan nodded and took a white box.
"I don't want the car. I'm a university student. Driving is too high profile. This place is close to the subway station. I can just go to school and take the subway." Xu Wan put the car key back.
Ah De thought for a moment. "Okay, let me talk to President Qiao."
The car drove into Qiao Chen's manor. Xu Wan got out of the car and saw a vast lawn that could almost be used to play golf. The three-story-tall manor hid in the woods. It was like the palace of a princess in a fairy tale. It was quiet and luxurious, exuding a sense of nobility.
After Xu Wan entered the room, she followed what Ah De told her and went up to the third room on the left.
The room was immense, almost a hundred square meters. It had its bathroom and a huge balcony. There were a few pots of flowers in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. It seemed to be some kind of expensive orchid variety. From the window, one could see the lake in the distance that was shimmering. It was so beautiful that it was amazing.
