"Prepare the report and give Xiao Qing a copy. Give me a copy too."
"Okay."
…
Because the wedding was called off, Madam Shen had a lot of objections.
She was furious when she saw Shen Mubei sitting on the sofa and watching the financial news as if nothing had happened.
"Look at you! Can't you watch something else other than this? You let such a good woman go. What are you thinking? What was wrong with the child? Tell me!"
"Mom, stop asking. It's nothing. We're just not suitable."
"If you're not suitable for each other, can't you change? Look at you…" Madam Shen pointed at him. "I'm so angry. I went to look for Qing Qing today. She didn't look good. Why can't you take this opportunity to ask about her well-being?"
Shen Mubei pursed his lips and did not speak. His expression suddenly turned ugly.
Madam Shen continued, "Sigh, it's just a child. It's not like she can't get pregnant in the future. Look at how you're acting. You're arguing so much over such a small matter."
Shen Mubei stood up and walked toward the wine cabinet. When he reached out to take his usual bottle of red wine, he realized that the rack was empty.
"Where's my wine?" he asked unhappily.
"I got someone to throw them away. You should stop drinking."
"Why?"
Madam Shen walked over and snatched his glass. "Why? Why? You're still asking me why? I've already talked to your Aunt Xiao and Xiao Qing. I even read Xiao Qing's report. The doctor said that it's because the two of you drank the night Xiao Qing conceived that there's a problem with the embryo's development. Xiao Qing had been showing signs of a miscarriage before this. Fortunately, there's nothing wrong with your genetics. It's not a big problem for you to have a healthy child in the future…"
Before she could finish, she saw Shen Mubei pick up his car keys and run out the door.
"Hey, child, you don't want your coat anymore? You don't even want to change your shoes? Who wears slippers out?"
…
In Qiao Weiyang's car, Xiao Qing's smile became much better.
"Qiao Weiyang, I implore you to tell me." His voice lowered, and there was a hint of hurt in his tone.
This was an emotion that rarely appeared in the high and mighty Shen Mubei.
Qiao Weiyang was stunned. What kind of feelings did he have for Xiao Qing?
She believed that her intuition would not lie to her. Shen Mubei was obviously agitated. He was completely different from before. When he was with Zhao Xinshu, he was also completely different.
Qiao Weiyang didn't know what to say.
Shen Mubei pondered for a moment and said, "I can indeed investigate, but this is too disrespectful to her."
"Then wouldn't it be disrespectful if her friend told you?" Qiao Weiyang asked back. Although she had noticed his feelings for Xiao Qing, Qiao Weiyang still did not intend to betray her friend.
Shen Mubei: "…"
"President Shen, you're not the only one suffering in this relationship. It's obvious that Qing Qing has endured much more than you. Can you give the both of you some time to consider your relationship and think about it carefully before saying anything else?"
Shen Mubei did not say anything.
Qiao Weiyang continued, "Talk to her properly, especially about your relationship with Zhao Xinshu, okay?"
Shen Mubei stared at Qiao Weiyang for a while before turning around and leaving.
Qiao Weiyang immediately called Xiao Qing.
Xiao Qing was eating a local specialty snack. She sounded like she was in a good mood over the phone.
"No ice, just an extra spoonful of syrup." She took the snack and asked, "What's wrong? Did you miss me so soon?"
"Shen Mubei came to look for me. He asked where you went."
"You didn't tell him, did you?"
"No, but Qingqing, I think the two of you might need to communicate carefully. I think Shen Mubei's feelings for you might be different from what you think."
Xiao Qing laughed. "That's not true. He was clearly with Zhao Xinshu that day, and they were even hugging each other."
"Qing Qing, I've observed the relationship between Zhao Xinshu and him. He's so cold to her that they've almost never held hands. I suggest you ask him directly about some things and communicate properly. Don't be so suspicious of each other."
Xiao Qing was silent for a long time.
Qiao Weiyang said, "You're usually a carefree and straightforward person. Why are you so timid when it comes to relationships?"
