Zhao Ningxue's mother naturally didn't know the inside story.
Tears filled her eyes as she glanced at Gu Xia, "Xiao Xia, we're entrusting Xiao Xue to you, please keep her company and talk to her."
"Auntie, rest assured, leave it to me."
After Zhao Ningxue's mother left, only Gu Xia and Zhao Ningxue remained in the hospital room.
For a moment, the atmosphere became frozen to the extreme.
"Xiao Xia... Where's Guozi?" Zhao Ningxue's weak voice asked.
She wanted to change the subject, knowing full well that Gu Xia might have come to demand an explanation.
"Eating porridge."
Gu Xia did not directly confront her, but his expression was quite unsightly as he fed Zhao Ningxue the porridge.
"I'm full now, thank you."
"There's half a bowl left, finish it, so you'll have the strength to keep lying to us."
After Gu Xia said this, Zhao Ningxue's fingers stiffened on the bed.
It seemed Gu Xia was even angrier than she had imagined...
This calm was perhaps the calm before the storm.
