Mother Qin, seeing Qin Xiang's resolute attitude, could only helplessly sigh.
"I think you're quite tired too, and it's getting late. You should rest now; I'll watch over you here," she said.
Qin Xiang silently nodded her head, but her heart was in turmoil. Chen Kai had returned from so far away because he knew she was sick, yet she had closed the door on him. Was it really too heartless of her?
Moreover, Chen Kai was prepared to spend the night in the hallway—wouldn't he feel wronged?
Having known him for so long, she ought to know him well, and deep down she was aware that none of this was his fault.
Yet, the fact remained that he had a child with Gao Rourou. She could have steeled her heart to be with Chen Kai, but she felt she couldn't do so in good conscience.
Torn by her dilemma, Qin Xiang lay in the hospital bed, closed her eyes, but her mind was flooded with images of them together, those happy days.
