Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1798: Chapter 1797: Has Qing Yang Woken Up?

The next morning, Bai Xiaoxiao brought breakfast to the hospital.

It seemed Meng Ke had specifically informed his mother not to bring him breakfast.

When Bai Xiaoxiao arrived, Meng Ke was the only one in the ward, even the nurse had been sent away by him.

Seeing her come in, a brilliant smile bloomed between Meng Ke’s brows, and he spoke with a clear and cheerful voice, “Xiaoxiao, you’re here.”

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, carrying the breakfast to the bedside and placing the thermal box on the small table in front of the bed, asking warmly, “How are you feeling?”

Meng Ke joked, “When you come, I don’t even feel the pain from my wounds.”

Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes flickered, pretending not to hear his words, she opened the thermal box and served him some porridge, “This porridge has been simmered for a long time, try it and see if it tastes good.”

Meng Ke smiled as he accepted the porridge she handed him, “As long as you brought it, it’s all good.”

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled again, walked to the window to open it, and said, “Don’t say that. What if I poisoned the porridge?”

She opened half the window, and sunlight poured in from outside, shining on her fair cheeks. She squinted her eyes instinctively, the smile in her eyes bright and radiant.

Meng Ke looked at her standing by the window, momentarily entranced.

Undoubtedly, Bai Xiaoxiao was beautiful, and not just beautiful, but the kind with a lot of charisma.

At this moment, the sunlight illuminated half of her face, making her already fair and jade-like skin glow with luster.

Indescribably beautiful and captivating.

Bai Xiaoxiao took a breath of fresh air, “The weather’s nice today; it seems like a good day.”

Meng Ke chuckled softly, looking at her tenderly, “What does good weather have to do with a good day?”

Bai Xiaoxiao turned her head, her face full of a bright smile, “Of course there’s a link. Good weather makes people feel good, and when you’re in a good mood, many things get better too, so it’s a good day!”

Meng Ke couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh at her logic.

Bai Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows seriously, “It’s true. Just when I was coming upstairs, I heard that Qing Yang, who had been comatose in the ICU for a long time, just woke up earlier.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Meng Ke’s expression slightly changed, and even the porridge bowl in his hand seemed to tremble imperceptibly.

Because Bai Xiaoxiao had been watching him intently without blinking, she was able to catch his fleeting subtle expression.

But in an instant, he returned to normal, his smile reappearing on his face.

“Qing Yang, why does this name sound a little familiar?”

Meng Ke pretended to be in deep thought.

Bai Xiaoxiao laughed lightly, “Qing Yang is the bodyguard from Ranran’s house, the one who’s a twin with Qing Feng, you’ve met them before.”

Meng Ke suddenly realized, “No wonder it sounded familiar. Wen Ran’s bodyguards are twins, one named Qing Feng and the other Qing Yang.”

Speaking of this, Meng Ke furrowed his brow slightly again, looking at Bai Xiaoxiao with confusion, “But, what happened to that Qing Yang?”

“I’m not too sure, I only know he was injured and had been in a coma for a long time. Both Gu Kai and Uncle Gu said they didn’t know when he would wake up, maybe never. But he suddenly woke up now, it’s truly a miracle.”

“So today really is a good day.” Meng Ke smiled again as he spoke.

Bai Xiaoxiao also laughed, pointing at the porridge in his hand, “Hurry up and eat the porridge, don’t just talk. It’ll taste bad when it gets cold.”

Meng Ke smiled slightly, putting the porridge on the small table to the side, and lifted the quilt, saying, “I need to go to the bathroom first. There’s a drip to be done later this morning. Xiaoxiao, can you help me check why the nurse hasn’t come yet?”

Bai Xiaoxiao promptly agreed, “Okay, I’ll go have a look for you. Once you finish the porridge, you’ll start the drip. After the drip, you can go out and enjoy the sun.”

After Bai Xiaoxiao turned and left the ward, Meng Ke got down from the bed, taking his phone to the bathroom.

He didn’t actually need to use the bathroom but instead sent a message, “Has Qing Yang woken up?”

Within a minute, a reply came back: “No, he hasn’t woken up yet!”

Seeing the reply, a faint shadow passed through Meng Ke’s eyes, and his brow furrowed.

Could it be that Bai Xiaoxiao was lying to him? Testing him.

If that was true, then had she begun to suspect him?

Thinking of this, a hint of darkness surfaced in Meng Ke’s eyes.

He was more convinced now that Qing Yang showing up in M Country was neither an accident nor a coincidence.

He must have been sent by Mo Xiuchen to track him and Xu Wanqi. With increased pressure on his smartphone, his eyes grew ever darker.

Being allied with Bai Xiaoxiao and that group was the greatest disadvantage to him.

Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran certainly wouldn’t miss any chance to sow discord if they suspected the matter with Qing Yang was connected to him.

So, could it be that the kidnapping of Qiao Xiuyun also aroused suspicion among them?

That’s why Bai Xiaoxiao would ignore him completely, letting him spend New Year’s in the hospital alone—such a heartless act that Bai Xiaoxiao usually wouldn’t do.

Whatever he thought of, the darkness in Meng Ke’s eyes was quickly replaced by a cold smile.

He was determined about Bai Xiaoxiao.

He absolutely wouldn’t let her be with Luo Haofeng.

And as for Qing Yang, as long as he’s alive, he’s a ticking time bomb, unsure of when he’d explode.

He must eliminate this time bomb before it wakes up.

He sent another message: “In the next few days, I need to know who Bai Xiaoxiao is with.”

Meng Ke came out of the bathroom and lay on the bed just as Bai Xiaoxiao returned from outside.

“The nurse is in the ward over there; she’ll be here in a moment. Hurry and eat.”

“Okay.”

Meng Ke smiled, focused on eating the porridge.

After finishing, when Bai Xiaoxiao went inside to wash the bowl, he received another text message.

It said: “Luo Haofeng is in Gu Kai’s Office.”

Upon seeing the message, a flash of malice crossed Meng Ke’s eyes.

Luo Haofeng was still in G City?

This news brought to the surface all the jealousy and anger buried deep within Meng Ke’s heart, enveloping him in darkness…

Meng Ke believed his stay in G City was definitely for Bai Xiaoxiao’s sake.

And Bai Xiaoxiao had not come to see him during these days, not even a phone call.

She must be with Luo Haofeng, even if not spending all her time with him, they must have gone on dates…

Bai Xiaoxiao, despite all evidence pointing to Wu Jingfang as the instigator in the kidnapping of her mother, still went on dates with Luo Haofeng.

The darkness on Meng Ke’s face gradually returned to calmness, with the cold viciousness in his eyes turning to the warmth of spring wind as Bai Xiaoxiao came out from the bathroom.

“Xiaoxiao, I appreciate your efforts.”

He looked at Bai Xiaoxiao with a smile, speaking gentle words.

Bai Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, placing the thermal box on the small table by the bed, just as the nurse came in to start his IV, she sat beside and watched.

After the nurse left, Meng Ke leaned on the headboard, Bai Xiaoxiao handed him a magazine while she picked up a newspaper to read.

It wasn’t until he finished two bottles of drips that Bai Xiaoxiao stood up, asking Meng Ke, after the needle was removed, “The sun is nice outside, do you want to go out and enjoy it?”
