When Su Qiao next woke up, she was already in a hospital bed.
Her injuries had been tended to, and beside the bed...
Su Qiao felt a bit stunned looking at the man slumped beside the bed, holding her hand.
His skin was fair, his features handsome, and a simple white shirt made his eyes and brows appear even softer. He looked like a gentle person at first glance.
Unfortunately, that was just a facade; inside, he was ruthless and malicious.
The thought that this duplicitous man had caused her previous self to suffer a fate worse than death made a cold glint flash in Su Qiao's eyes. She truly wanted to snap his neck.
Host, you absolutely mustn't act rashly. If you kill him directly, not only will you go to jail, but it also won't dispel the previous self's resentment. The previous self's wish is for these people to receive their just punishment, for this man to be ruined, and for everyone to know the true face of this hypocrite.
Su Qiao narrowed her eyes and loosened her clenched fingers.
"Qiao Qiao?"
A trace of fatigue showed in Qin Yu's eyes and brows. When he saw Su Qiao was awake, a look of surprise instantly flashed in his eyes.
He tightly gripped Su Qiao's hand just as she was about to pull it away.
"Qiao Qiao, you're awake? Are you alright? Does it hurt?"
"You almost scared me to death, you know? When I got the call saying you were in a car accident, my heart nearly stopped."
Qin Yu held Su Qiao's hands with both of his, looking as if he hadn't yet recovered from the shock. His gentle eyes were filled with worry, fear, and heartache.
What a shame. Why didn't it just scare you to death?
That way, I wouldn't have to do it myself.
My hands are so dirty.
Su Qiao frowned and tried to pull her hand away with a jerk.
"Qiao Qiao, what's... wrong? Does it hurt a lot? Or are you scared?"
Qin Yu's dark eyes dimmed.
He wondered if it was his imagination, but he felt that the Su Qiao in front of him seemed a bit unfamiliar.
In the past, whenever she saw him, her eyes would hold a subtle admiration and joy.
And she would never resist his closeness.
Seeing Qin Yu's suspicion, 444 quickly warned:
Host, Host, don't break character, don't break character. Even if you can't act exactly the same, you need to be close. For specifics, refer to those actors.
Acting?
Scenes from various TV dramas flashed through Su Qiao's mind.
Then she recalled for a moment how the previous Su Qiao had acted when facing Qin Yu.
She closed her eyes, hiding the coldness within them.
She looked up, a little scared, and a thin mist filled her clear eyes.
Even her voice was soft with a tremor: "Brother Yu..."
Damn it, I want to puke.
Su Qiao was disgusted by her own voice.
Just kill him directly!!!
444 shivered, goosebumps erupting all over its tiny body.
Is its Host... overacting?
Qin Yu secretly observed her for a while, and the trace of suspicion in his heart vanished.
He stroked Su Qiao's forehead with a touch of heartache:
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my Qiao Qiao. It's alright now, my Qiao Qiao is safe."
"Thankfully, Qiao Qiao is lucky. Otherwise, Brother Yu truly wouldn't know what to do."
Qin Yu looked relieved.
Thankfully, she's alright.
Although he wanted to gain some things, he didn't want Su Qiao to actually be harmed.
Su Qiao was beautiful, her family background wasn't bad, and most importantly, both her parents were deceased. She was gentle, easy to coax, and liked him.
She was his chosen wife, and he needed Su Qiao.
"Mm." Su Qiao nodded weakly.
She decided to just be herself.
That act earlier had almost made even her want to vomit.
Anyway, the original previous self was introverted and didn't talk much.
And she had just been in a car accident today, so a big change shouldn't be a problem, right?
Qin Yu no longer suspected anything and looked at her with a self-reproaching, regretful expression:
"It's all my fault, all my fault. I was just busy with meetings. I knew you were attending a classmate's birthday party today, but I didn't personally go to pick you up."
