Chapter 364: Hiding Her Sickness
Ye Han turned on a cartoon to coax Xiaoxin and chatted with Xiaoxin from time to time.
After hearing nothing from Qin Muxuan for a long time, Ye Han noticed that Qin Muxuan was distracted and she smiled. “Are you worried about Zijin?”
Qin Muxuan was a little embarrassed when Ye Han saw through her like that, but she still denied, “No, why should I worry about him?”
“Xiao Xuan, did Zijin’s father go and talk to you?” Ye Han hesitated for a moment before asking.
Qin Muxuan was a little surprised and blurted out, “How do you know?” Logically speaking, Gu Heng wouldn’t tell Ye Han about this.
The expression on Ye Han’s face was saying I knew it, “I took a guess. Last time Zijin came back, he argued with his father.”
Qin Muxuan didn’t know about this and was a little surprised, but she didn’t ask too much.
“Xiao Xuan, Zijin’s father doesn’t have a good temper. Although I don’t know what he went to you for, I know that he couldn’t possibly have said anything nice, so I apologize for him.”
It was not a good thing to throw a cheque at her face and tell her to leave her own daughter.
“It’s alright. You don’t have to apologize for him,” Qin Muxuan said.
Ye Han scolded Gu Heng in her heart. That stubborn, hot-tempered geezer!
“But Zijin is different. You know, Zijin still has feelings for you,” Ye Han felt that she needed to speak up for her son.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Qin Muxuan sneered, “Really?”
Sensing Qin Muxuan’s obvious disbelief, Ye Han felt a little helpless, “I know that you are still mad at Elderly Lady Gu and Yan Yuxiao, but I can guarantee that though they were married for the past few years, there was nothing between Zijin and Yan Yuxiao. And he only agreed to marry her because Elderly Lady Gu threatened that she’d harm you if he didn’t.”
Hearing that, Qin Muxuan was shocked: “What?”
When she saw that Qin Muxuan obviously knew nothing about it, Ye Han was surprised, “Didn’t Zijin tell you that?”
Qin Muxuan shook her head. The truth was, they tried their best to avoid talking about Yan Yuxiao.
In fact, after what Yan Yuxiao did to her a few days ago, Qin Muxuan did not know how Gu Zijin dealt with her, but with Gu Zijin’s temper, she knew that he would not forgive her easily.
Qin Muxuan could faintly feel that Gu Zijin had no feelings for Yan Yuxiao, but she didn’t know that they got married because of her!
Ye Han explained to Qin Muxuan about what happened four years ago, and Qin Muxuan’s heart sank.
Ye Han looked at Qin Muxuan’s face and found it difficult to figure out what she was thinking about. She asked gingerly, “Xiao Xuan, is it possible for you and Zijin to get back together?”
Qin Muxuan looked at Ye Han in a daze, her heart churning, but in the end, her thoughts only turned into one sentence, “I don’t know.”
Qin Muxuan really didn’t know that Gu Zijin had done that just for her. Then it was not worth it when she felt utterly disappointed back then.
Although what happened could be explained clearly, it was still like a thorn that pricked her heart deeply.
Did she love Gu Zijin? Sure enough, she loved him, whether it was a few years ago or now, but their being together was wrong in the first place, so even if the misunderstanding was solved, would there be a good ending for them? Qin Muxuan was not sure.
Qin Muxuan felt the lack of oxygen again. Beads of sweat popped out from her forehead and the scene in front of her started to become a little blurry.
Sensing that something was wrong with Qin Muxuan, Ye Han quickly grabbed her hand. “Xiao Xuan, are you okay?!”
Xiaobai and Xiaoxin also ran to her, “Mommy, are you okay?”
Qin Muxuan supported the sofa and downed a glass of water on the coffee table before slowly picking herself up.
Qin Muxuan shook her head and felt that the scene in front of her was getting clearer again. She smiled at the people who were worriedly surrounding her. “I’m fine. I was just a little dizzy and I have low blood sugar.”
Hearing that, Ye Han didn’t think too much and sighed in relief. “You scared me to death just now. Look at how skinny you are and you have low blood sugar. You should eat more.”
Without waiting for Qin Muxuan to refute, she went to the kitchen to ask Nanny Chen to prepare two more dishes.
However, Xiaobai was not fooled by Qin Muxuan. He was still worried, “Da Bai, are you really okay?”
For some reason, Qin Muxuan was afraid that her son might find it out, “It’s okay. I’m just a little hungry and a little dizzy.”
Xiaobai stared at Qin Muxuan for a few seconds. He didn’t remember that his mother had low blood sugar, but he nodded and didn’t say more. And he planned to ask his dad to investigate it.
Xiaoxin who was standing nearby looked at mommy and her brother. she felt quite conflicted. She knew how serious it could get and that Mommy would faint when she was seriously ill. It wasn’t as simple as what mommy said that she was just a bit hungry.
However, mommy did not tell him the truth when Xiaobai’s brother asked mommy, so Xiaoxin was conflicted.
Qin Muxuan was also afraid that Xiaoxin might have a slip of tongue. She didn’t want Xiaobai and Gu Zijin to know that she had depression, so she took Xiaoxin’s hand and said that she would take her to the toilet, not caring whether Xiaoxin was willing or not.
Xiaoxin pouted and looked at Qin Muxuan reluctantly.
After entering the bathroom and closing the door, Qin Muxuan let out a sigh of relief. She squatted down and discussed with Xiaoxin, “Xiaoxin, promise me one thing, okay?”
“What is it?” Xiaoxin still looked worried.
“Promise me not to tell Papa, brother and grandmother about mommy’s illness, okay?”
Xiaoxin was confused. “Why?”
Qin Muxuan explained patiently, “Because they are people close to you and me. If they know that I’m sick, they will get upset. You don’t want them to be upset, right?”
Xiaoxin felt that what Qin Muxuan said made sense, so she nodded. “Okay, I’ll do as you say. But mommy, are you really okay just now? Should I tell godmother about this?” Mommy always went to Jian Xi when she was sick before.
Qin Muxuan smiled and touched Xiaoxin’s head. “I was really fine just now. It’s just that I might be a little dizzy from an empty stomach. It has nothing to do with my illness. Don’t worry.”
Xiaoxin was not as sensitive as Xiaobai. She quickly accepted what Qin Muxuan said, “Then you should eat more in the future. I seldom get sick because I eat so much.”
Qin Muxuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so she just nodded.
After persuading Xiaoxin, Qin Muxuan felt reassured and brought her back to the living room.
