After Marrying the Officer Chapter 885: Xia Chuyi’s Guilt

There’s no denying that upon hearing Xia Chuyi say the words "Mrs. Ou," Ou Jun felt a slight pang of heartache.

However, when he heard Xia Chuyi inquiring about his mother’s health, Ou Jun’s heart imdiately filled with joy, and he said, "Mother’s health, thanks to the dicinal food recipe you provided, has improved greatly."

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi smiled slightly, nodded, and sincerely said, "That’s good."

"However, we haven’t told her about this matter for the ti being..." Suddenly, Ou Jun’s tone shifted, as he spoke with so hesitation and guilt.

In Ou Jun’s voice, beyond guilt, there was also so worry.

He truly did not know how Xia Chuyi would perceive this matter.

He feared she might see it like the previous Fake Ou Jiao—Cao Guihua, holding it against them as a "selfish" act for not telling Mrs. Ou, due to concerns for her health.

Xia Chuyi was completely unaware of Ou Jun’s "worry," but she also shook her head slightly and said, "It’s not that big of a deal..."

Because she suddenly recalled sothing.

Previously, Shuqin had ntioned to her that the reason Mrs. Ou fell ill was that she saw her biological daughter and was overwheld with emotion.

At first, she thought Shuqin was referring to Cao Guihua,

But now thinking back, could it have been her that triggered Mrs. Ou’s illness?

There was one ti in an alleyway when Mrs. Ou fell ill the mont she saw her.

Another ti in the hospital, when she went to see Mrs. Ou, Mrs. Ou was extrely agitated, seemingly about to fall ill.

"Big brother," after so thought, Xia Chuyi said to Ou Jun, "if conditions regarding Mrs. Ou do not allow it... then, don’t tell her."

Her words were clear; if this matter would really cause Mrs. Ou to... then don’t tell her, even if it’s forever.

While saying this, Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but feel a bit lancholy in her heart.

But, just a brief encounter caused Mrs. Ou to fall ill... She really did not wish for Mrs. Ou to suffer any physical stress because of her, leading to unbearable consequences.

However, not telling Mrs. Ou also ant this matter is bound to cause lifelong regret... yet, it’s a vicious cycle Xia Chuyi simply could not break free from.

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Ou Jun seed a bit stunned and said, "How can we not tell Mom?"

But soon, Ou Jun regained his composure and said, "Chuyi, you misunderstood, Mom’s health has truly improved greatly."

"The doctor said that ordinary stress would not cause her to fall ill." Ou Jun said very seriously, "So, you don’t need to worry."

"The reason we haven’t told Mom temporarily is simply because we’re afraid she’ll worry... that she wouldn’t be able to resist coming to see you prematurely." Finally, Ou Jun sighed slightly and added, "After all, ’everyone’ needs so ti to adapt."

But who are ’everyone’?

Clearly, it’s only Xia Chuyi who needs to adapt.

For Mrs. Ou, it is a wish she has waited twenty years for, with no adaptation needed at all.

So, Xia Chuyi realized—Ou Jun and the others haven’t told Mrs. Ou because of her.

Xia Chuyi slightly opened her mouth, wanting to say sothing... Beside her, Huo Shiqian suddenly grasped her hand, applying gentle pressure.

Feeling the warmth transmitted from Uncle Liberation Army, Xia Chuyi’s heart ward as she sighed and said, "I’m sorry."

Upon hearing this, Ou Jun hurriedly said to Xia Chuyi, "Chuyi, in matters like this, there’s no need for a ’sorry.’
