章 55: Chapter 55: Never Considered Him as a Husband

"Alright. I have thought it over and will tell you about it," Qiao Zhiyi told him with a forced smile. "Thank you, Dr. Sen Ge. I will go check on my mother first."

Throughout the encounter, Qiao Zhiyi did not look at Shi Jingzhou again, treating him as if he were a stranger.

After she left the room, Sen Ge shrugged, and with a gesture of confusion, asked Shi Jingzhou, "What's wrong with your wife? Why does she still need to think about it?"

Shi Jingzhou didn't respond and also left.

Sen Ge realized that there seemed to be a problem between the couple.

Qiao Zhiyi stood in front of the hospital bed, where Wang Shulan had fallen asleep again.

She quietly stayed with her mother for a while before leaving.

By the door, Shi Jingzhou leaned against the wall waiting for her.

"You are rejecting me," Shi Jingzhou pointed out knowingly.

The woman's eyes reddened more, already swollen from crying the night before, and now even worse.
