TN: Mage’s name is pronounced as Mah-ge (like brother ge) .
Two people reluctantly watch as the couple in front of the car stand pretty close to each other . One claps his hands, optimistic about what he’s seeing, while the other frowns .
“Oh, it’s such a headache . Our boss is preoccupied with sister-in-law and forgets about us . ” Jiao Daihu is the optimist . He acts like he’s complaining, but in reality, he’s just saying things to appease the woman . Just listen to her .
In his heart, he has long regarded An Chuxia as his xiaonainai, Nangong Zifei’s wife . The girl Zifei met at the bar [the night after meeting Chuxia] is sitting right next to him at the moment . (See Chapter 396) .
Her name is Mage . She was adopted by Maliya’s elderly father . The night of Maliya’s unfortunate incident, Mage ran into Maliya’s boyfriend, Jieke, when she had forgotten to bring an umbrella . Jieke kindly took her home so she could take a hot bath and change into dry clothes . Unfortunately, she forgot to bring her clothes into the bathroom, and Maliya happened to walk in the house at that precise moment . Her naked appearance made things worse .
Maliya gets easily agitated . She was upset, thinking Mage was stealing her boyfriend from her . So, she ran to the bar, trying to hook up with Nangong Zifei, who happened to be sitting in the corner [of the bar] . By the time she was able to get to the bar, Maliya was being sent home . Maliya was drunk, and was kicked out of the bar, her heel broken . It’s just fortunate for them that Nangong Zifei sent a car to save them .
Since that incident, Nangong Zifei had rejected Maliya, their father died, and Maliya won’t forgive her despite nothing happening between her and Jieke .
Jiao Daihu doesn’t understand why Nangong Zifei took in the homely, useless girl and gave her a place to live and wait for him . Because of this, Jiao Daihu dislikes her, and inadvertently mentions An Chuxia .
He looks at Mage’s displeasure, and it makes Jiao Daihu’s heart sing . He sighs with relief . “Hey, Mage, how’s your homework going? You know our boss doesn’t like useless people . You better…”
“Jiao Daihu-ge,” Mage pulls her gaze from the couple onto the man beside her . “I know I don’t deserve to be with the boss . You don’t have to say it . I don’t think of him that way . ”
What she said isn’t quite true, but she knows that in Jiao Daihu eyes, she shouldn’t have any feelings for Nangong Zifei . She can’t think that way .
Jiao Daihu moves his lips, but doesn’t say a thing . Is he bullying her? What he said is true! He doesn’t care! Jaio Daihu pulls out his phone and plays a game .
An Chuxia doesn’t want to return to the ward, while Nangong Zifei wants her to go back . He knows she shouldn’t be waiting outside to get home .
“Zifei, I know I shouldn’t talk about him to you . But… I am really worried about Han Qilu,” An Chuxia says, tears flowing down her cheeks . She feels helpless .
Nangong Zifei didn’t know Han Qilu has been sent to the United States for treatment . He deduces from An Chuxia words what’s happening .
“Do you want me to help you leave the hospital to find him?” Nangong Zifei isn’t angry with An Chuxia . But in his heart, he asks, “Why are you only worried about Han Qilu?” However, on the surface, he acts unaffected .
No matter how one tries, there are just some things that rarely happen . He didn’t want to use all his assets to pay An Chuxia’s ransom when he heard Nangong Zijue kidnapped her . Although it was the last thing in Zijue’s mind, he wondered, “If An Chuxia dies, Zifei won’t live . ”
Zifei’s lips are pursed, showing he’s quite upset .
“Well! Please help me!” An Chuxia’s eyes sparkle . “Help me get out of the hospital . Just help me leave . ”
It is quite impossible for her to get discharged from the hospital herself because Jiang Yuan stipulated it in her release . In this case, Zifei will be the one checking her out . However, she’s unsure that even he would be able to do so .
“An Chuxia . ” Nangong Zifei reaches out and touches her right shoulder before staring at her . “This is Han’s hospital . I am not powerful enough to get you discharged . But if you want me to help you get discharged, I will . However, you have to think about everyone who’s worried about you . Jiang Yuan really likes you, and if her future daughter-in-law disappears from the hospital, she’ll be worried to death over you . ”
An Chuxia is silent . Jiang Yuan will definitely be worried… she doesn’t want her to worry .
“I know . ” An Chuxia looks up . “I will get better as fast as I can, and get discharged from the hospital . ”
Nangong Zifei doesn’t nod . She looks at her deeply before standing up . “I won’t prolong my stay . It’s still early, and you need to get more sleep . I’ll leave . ”
An Chuxia tugs on his sleeves as she smiles brilliantly at him . “No, thank you . ”
Nangong Zifei shakes his head . As he said, she didn’t have to thank him . Then, he hears her say, “If I met you first, I would have loved you . ”
His body freezes, his knuckles and fingers stiffen .
Slowly, he shows her a sly expression . “Thank you . ”
He wishes for a quick death now since he didn’t meet her first .
The next time he’s reincarnated, he’ll definitely find An Chuxia before she meets Han Qilu so they won’t be separated from each other . In this life, he’ll let go of her first… It will be a cheap victory for that son of a bit*h, Han Qilu .
That is, if he wakes up .
If Han Qilu stays in a coma, he shouldn’t blame him when he jumps the queue .
“I’ll go ahead . Go get some sleep . ” He doesn’t smile at her before turning and leaving .
Back in the car, Jiao Daihu starts gossiping again . Nangong Zifei doesn’t even pay attention to Mage’s presence . Instead, he starts talking to Daihu about his conversation with An Chuxia . Usually, he won’t gossip with Jiao Daihu . After all, he’s not a woman . He won’t act like a girl . But today, he needs to talk about this situation .
Nangong Zifei remains quiet . Jiao Daihu doesn’t say anything for ten seconds before saying, “What you’re trying to say is, if Han Qilu doesn’t exist… . ”
“Don’t think too hard and waste your brain cells . Otherwise…” Nangong Zifei doesn’t say anything else once he starts the engine .
