Free Web NovelChapter 1175: Chapter 1175: I Miss You Too
"Xue’er, it’s me."
Listening to Mu Qiancheng’s slightly hoarse voice, Jiang Xue couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache and whispered, "Why haven’t you rested yet?"
"Just finished being busy, was about to rest." Mu Qiancheng laughed and said. He didn’t tell Jiang Xue that he had been busy all day and was only now getting a chance to eat something warm.
During the day, due to limited time, they had been surviving on dry food.
"You’ve been working hard all day, quickly go and rest." Jiang Xue’s heart ached even more because she knew Mu Qiancheng hadn’t been resting well these past few days. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken so long to call her.
"Wanted to talk to you."
"What do you want to talk about?" Jiang Xue knew, just like her, Mu Qiancheng missed her too. So she didn’t rush him to rest.
She was just like him, wasn’t she? Otherwise, she would’ve gone to sleep early. She wouldn’t have stayed up till now without resting.
"Xue’er, I miss you!" Mu Qiancheng’s deep voice flowed into Jiang Xue’s ear, making her heart uncontrollably quicken its pace. If Mu Qiancheng were in front of her right now, she would definitely throw herself into his arms, hold him tightly, and kiss him fiercely.
Because she missed him too, missed him so much.
"I miss you too!" After a long while, Jiang Xue finally uttered these words, warming Mu Qiancheng’s heart instantly. During the flood relief efforts, they had been working tirelessly, yet without complaints. But he was wildly thinking of Jiang Xue and Little Reunion, thinking of his wife and child.
Whenever he got a little time, he would think about them, wondering what they were doing at that moment. Especially since he wasn’t in Beijing, he worried whether the two of them would feel uncomfortable or be bullied.
"Xue’er, are you okay over there?" Mu Qiancheng asked worriedly, as he had left suddenly without settling many affairs.
"Don’t worry, I’m doing good." Jiang Xue didn’t want Mu Qiancheng to worry, so she didn’t mention Lu Jintian’s car accident or the troubles someone caused her. After pondering for a moment, she decided to inform Mu Qiancheng about her plan to leave Beijing.
Currently, with Mu Qiancheng not around, and uncertain when the disaster relief would end, she didn’t want to waste her time here, didn’t want to wait in vain.
"Qiancheng, there’s something I need to discuss with you."
"What is it? Tell me!"
"Qiancheng, I’m planning to go back to Xu City and spend some time with my parents. What do you think?"
After hearing Jiang Xue’s words, Mu Qiancheng remained silent for a while before speaking, "Xue’er, I have no objections. It’s good for you to go back. At least in Xu City, you have people to help if anything happens. Although you have relatives in Beijing, ultimately, you’re unfamiliar with the place."
"Alright, I get it. I should be leaving in a few days. Please take care and don’t worry about me."
After chatting with Mu Qiancheng for a while and noticing it was late, Jiang Xue reluctantly hung up the phone. Perhaps because she had talked with Mu Qiancheng, Jiang Xue soon fell asleep.
When she awoke, it was almost eight o’clock. She got up, made a simple breakfast, and ate it. Jiang Xue went to the market again and bought some ribs to stew at home. While stewing the soup, Jiang Xue intentionally took some water out from the space.
This way, the rib soup was not only fragrant, but deliciously tasty.
Just like yesterday, Jiang Xue set aside some soup for Lu Jintian and cooked a bowl of noodles for herself and Little Reunion with the rest. After eating, she went to the hospital.
As soon as she arrived at the hospital, she saw Lu Zheng was there too. Jiang Xue smiled and greeted him before proceeding to check on Lu Jintian’s condition.
