Bai Xiaoxiao hopes Madam ng quickly finds out that she and ng Ke have broken up.
Therefore, her words have an underlying ssage.
As soon as Madam ng heard Bai Xiaoxiao’s words, her expression changed imdiately, about to say sothing, ng Ke spoke a second earlier, "Mom, you should leave now."
He gave her a look, signaling her to leave quickly.
Although Mother Bai felt a bit dissatisfied inside, she didn’t say anything and left the ward.
Once Madam ng left, the ward was left with only ng Ke and Bai Xiaoxiao, and the atmosphere beca slightly awkward.
Bai Xiaoxiao opened the insulated box, served a bowl of porridge to ng Ke, and said lightly, "Shall I raise your bed a bit?"
"Sure."
ng Ke smiled at her.
Bai Xiaoxiao adjusted the head of the bed higher, then took a pillow and put it behind his back.
"Can you eat by yourself?"
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at ng Ke, hesitated as she saw the bruises on his face and hands, and softly asked.
ng Ke’s eyes flickered, "Xiaoxiao, if I asked you to feed , would you be willing?"
Seeming afraid she might refuse, he imdiately added, "Both of my arms are also injured, very painful."
Bai Xiaoxiao rembered the scene during the call where those kidnappers beat him, "How about I call a nurse to co?"
ng Ke smiled bitterly, "No need, I’ll eat by myself."
He actually wanted Bai Xiaoxiao to feed him, not a nurse.
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled slightly and handed the porridge to him, "Alright then, eat by yourself. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll call a nurse to feed you."
"Xiaoxiao, don’t just stand there, sit and chat with !"
ng Ke took the bowl and pointed to the chair beside, signaling her to pull it over and sit.
Bai Xiaoxiao nodded and sat on the chair by the bed.
"Xiaoxiao, did Auntie get scared this morning, is she okay now?"
"My mom is fine now, it was just a scare, she wasn’t injured."
"That’s good." ng Ke smiled and took a spoonful of porridge into his mouth.
Bai Xiaoxiao watched ng Ke eat porridge, monts later, seemingly casually said, "This afternoon, the police have caught those kidnappers."
ng Ke swallowed the porridge and asked with concern, "So, did those kidnappers confess who instructed them to kidnap Auntie?"
Bai Xiaoxiao’s expression slightly darkened, showing a bit of anger, "According to those kidnappers, it was Wu Jingfang who instructed them."
ng Ke looked puzzled at Bai Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, who is this Wu Jingfang? Does she have so grudge with Mother Bai?"
He seed unaware of who Wu Jingfang was.
Bai Xiaoxiao sneered, "Wu Jingfang is Luo Haofeng’s mother, you know, he has so grudges with my mom."
His words ’you know’ made ng Ke’s eyes flicker.
Soon, he smiled again, "Xiaoxiao, I know so of the grudges your mom has with Luo Haofeng’s mom, but if you don’t ntion her na, I truly wouldn’t know."
"It’s normal for you not to rember her na. Even if you know, you might not rember it."
Honestly, Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t believe ng Ke didn’t know Luo Haofeng’s mother’s na.
He can clearly understand the grudges between her mom and Wu Jingfang, so he definitely knows their nas.
"Right, I might have heard what her na was before."
ng Ke said, raising a hand and patting his head in annoyance, "My mory is getting worse."
"You’re a patient now, don’t hit yourself silly."
Bai Xiaoxiao jokingly stopped him.
ng Ke also laughed, "If I beca silly, would you pretend not to know ?"
"There’s that possibility." Bai Xiaoxiao pretended to think deeply.
"Then I mustn’t beco silly; even if I did, I might still rember you."
As ng Ke said this, without thinking, he looked at Bai Xiaoxiao seriously.
Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t know what to say for a mont, so she said nothing.
ng Ke chuckled again, "I heard, back then when Mo General lost his mory, he forgot himself but still rembered Wen Ran’s phone number. Their relationship truly makes people envious."
A knock ca from outside the ward, Bai Xiaoxiao got up to open the door.
The visitor was Lu Zhiyan.
"Officer Lu, why are you here?"
Lu Zhiyan glanced inside the ward, smilingly said, "The interrogation is concluded, as Boss ng is the victim, I ca to inform him."
"Please co in."
Bai Xiaoxiao invited Lu Zhiyan into the ward.
ng Ke quickly put down his bowl and greeted Lu Zhiyan, "Officer Lu, please sit."
"Boss ng, you’re having dinner, am I interrupting?"
Lu Zhiyan ca to the bedside but didn’t intend to sit, standing there instead.
ng Ke chuckled, "Not at all, not at all."
"That’s good, I’ll leave after speaking." Bai Xiaoxiao motioned Lu Zhiyan to sit down before speaking, Lu Zhiyan thanked her and sat courteously.
"Boss ng, here’s the thing, this afternoon we already caught those kidnappers, and they confessed."
Lu Zhiyan spoke formally to ng Ke.
ng Ke smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao just told , heard those thugs confessed the mastermind, truly hard work for Officer Lu."
"Yes, they’ve confessed the mastermind."
"Has the suspect been caught?" ng Ke glanced at Bai Xiaoxiao beside him, then calmly asked.
Lu Zhiyan smiled, "Not yet montarily, there are still so loopholes, we need further investigation, but Boss ng can rest assured to recover."
"Didn’t they already confess, why further investigate? Is the mastermind not the person the kidnappers confessed to?"
ng Ke looked puzzled at Lu Zhiyan, firing several questions.
"Once the case is solved, I’ll let Boss ng know."
Lu Zhiyan cryptically responded.
ng Ke didn’t intend to press further, chatted a few more words, and Lu Zhiyan stood up to leave.
**
That night, Mother Bai ca to Bai Xiaoxiao’s room.
"Xiaoxiao, what you spoke about this afternoon, is it true?"
Even now, Mother Bai couldn’t believe she might have misjudged.
Bai Xiaoxiao reached out and held Mother Bai’s hand, "Mom, with this important matter, how could I deceive you?"
"Lu Zhiyan has already sent people to investigate, believe that in a few days there’ll be an answer."
Mother Bai frowned, "If ng Ke really is such a person, that’s too frightening, these past two years, whenever you’re not ho, he’s often co to see your father and , I’ve always thought he’s reliable."
"Mom, you can’t judge a person by their appearance, actually there’s sothing I didn’t tell you this afternoon."
Bai Xiaoxiao hesitated, Mother Bai’s look urged her to continue.
Bai Xiaoxiao softly said, "Last ti when I brought up the breakup with ng Ke, he was entirely different from his usual gentle self."
