BXBX NOVEL Chapter 235 - 235 Leaving
“My lady, there is nothing to think about. There’s nothing going on between him and me.” Madam Qin waved her hands repeatedly, her expression changing.
“I just feel that if I follow you, not only will I not be able to take care of you, but I will also become a burden to you. If that happens, I will lose my dignity.”
“Madam Qin, you misunderstand my intentions. If you and Qian Conreng are interested in each other, I won’t stop you.” Yue Jiaojiao didn’t want to break up the couple and looked at Madam Qin with a gentle gaze. “However, if that’s the case, I hope that you can keep my existence a secret when the Lin family’s cousin comes looking for you.”
“My lady! Don’t worry, I’ll pack my things and go back with you today!
“As for Qian Conreng, I was just thinking about how I can repay him for taking care of me for so long. After all, it’s not easy to take care of someone with crippled legs!”
Yue Jiaojiao thought of Qian Congren’s body and agreed with Madam Qin’s words from the bottom of her heart.
“If you don’t want to stay in the Qian household any longer, I’ll give him a hundred silver as your medical expenses and the cost of his hard work in taking care of you as compensation.”
The amount of energy needed to take care of a patient couldn’t be measured by money. However, other than money, Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t think of any other way to repay him.
“Madam Qin, I’ll ask you one last time. Are you sure you don’t want to stay here?”
“My lady, I’ve aged. I just want to be by your side for the rest of my life.” Madam Qin’s tone was serious as she looked at Yue Jiaojiao. “Although my lady’s personality has changed a lot and you’ve become smarter, if it’s possible, I’d rather you not suffer in exchange for your intelligence. You haven’t cleared up the matter with the Lin family. I can’t be at ease without an adult by your side, my lady.”
“Madam Qin, you don’t have to do it for my sake.”
“I’m not only doing this for your sake, my lady, I’m doing this for Madam. I promised Madam that as long as I’m still breathing, I’ll always be by your side.”
Seeing Madam Qin’s face full of emotion at the mention of her mother, Yue Jiaojiao swallowed the words she was about to say.
“Since you’re here today, I’ll go back with you today.” Madam Qin’s face was solemn. “Master Biao should be here by now. Before I leave, I’ll have to give my thanks to Qian Conreng and to tell him of the plan. Otherwise, if the Lin family comes and he lets it slip, all our efforts will be in vain.”
“Okay. Zhao Zhan.”
Yue Jiaojiao had long prepared her excuse.
“Jiaojiao, I’ve already explained everything to Qian Conreng.” Zhao Zhan quickly walked to Yue Jiaojiao’s side and first looked at her expression with worry. Seeing that her expression was normal, he heaved a sigh of relief. “I’ve also asked Qian Conreng to accept the silver.”
Qian Congren was standing not far away, staring at Madam Qin without moving. After a long while, he stammered, “H-hey, don’t worry. Since they are the people you want to protect, I will definitely help you keep your secret.”
Madam Qin’s eyes reddened and she quickly lowered her head. She sniffled and calmed herself down. “T-thank you for your help these days.”
Yue Jiaojiao’s gaze shifted behind the two of them, then she tilted her head to look at Zhao Zhan. Zhao Zhan squeezed her palm to comfort her when she looked over.
“Qian Conreng, thank you for taking care of Madam Qin during this period of time,” Yue Jiaojiao looked at Qian congren and continued, “In the future, if you are willing, we would like to invite you to our house as a guest.”
