"Thank you." Tong Qiao reached out and took the water handed over by Mu Jingjing. The next second she hurriedly threw it away with an "ah" sound, followed by the sound of the water glass falling to the ground with a bang.
"I'm sorry..." Mu Jingping apologized.
Tong Qiao shook her head, "It's okay." Then she looked at Mu Jingping, "Are you worried about something?"
Tong Qiao asked Mu Jingran to help pour a glass of warm water, but she poured a glass of boiled water directly, and Tong Qiao felt that Mu Jingran had been a little uneasy in recent days.
Mu Jingping knelt down to clean up the broken water glasses on the ground. She said nothing and was in a panic. Her hand was accidentally pricked with blood from broken glass. She just shrank slightly and continued to clean it up.
Tong Qiao couldn't stand it anymore, so she grabbed Mu Jingping's wrist and pulled her up from the ground, "It's bleeding, didn't you notice?"
Mu Jingran blushed and tried to retract her wrist, "It's okay."
"It's okay if you bleed. Are you a girl? You don't know how to take care of yourself." Tong Qiao pulled Mu Jingjing to the room, "I'll take care of it for you."
Tong Qiao took out the medical kit, lowered her head and carefully treated Mu Jingran's wound. After it was done, she looked up and saw Mu Jingran's face was full of tears, "Why are you crying? Didn't you say it's okay? Now you know it hurts?"
Mu Jingping raised her hands to wipe away her tears, but the more she wiped away her tears, her voice was stained with tears, "Thank you."
Tong Qiao had a headache and looked like she didn't know what to do with Mu Jingping. How could a girl live like her? Silent, not afraid of pain, as quiet as air, "Okay, okay, don't cry. I'm really afraid of you. I was wrong. I shouldn't yell at you. Don't cry."
"Thank you." Mu Jingping got up and returned to the room after saying this.
Tong Qiao chased after her, but she had already closed the door. Through the door, Tong Qiao asked, "Are you really okay? If you have anything to say, please tell her. Don't keep it in your heart."
Listening to the caring words outside the door, Mu Jingran slid to the ground leaning against the door panel, folded her legs, hugged her knees with her arms, and burst into tears.
Tong Qiao asked Mu Jingran for a long time but neither responded to her nor opened the door. Through the door, she could hear Mu Jingran's suppressed cries.
Tong Qiao was not as good-tempered as Shu Xin, so she lost her patience with coaxing and went to bed angrily. She wanted to call Shu Xin, but it was too late now. Shu Youkang had been very strict with Shu Xin recently, so she I can only give up.
The next day, Huaxia Construction Company
Shu Xin was reading information in the office when Mu Jingran walked in, holding her hands in front of her, lowering her head and whispering: "I want to take a day off."
Shu Xin raised her head and saw Mu Jingjing's dark hair, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Mu Jingran shook her head, pursed her lips, and was silent for a few seconds before saying, "I want to go home."
When she said this, Mu Jingping clenched her hands tightly, and her face became a little paler, as if she was not going home, but going to face some savage beast.
But she kept her head down, and no one saw her expression. Even her eyes, which were red and swollen from crying for too long last night, were not seen.
Shu Xin just thought she was homesick, so she readily agreed, "Go ahead. Slow down on the road."
Mu Jingping didn't leave immediately, but stood in front of Shu Xin's desk for a while.
"Is there anything else?" Shu Xin asked her.
Mu Jingjian's small hands in front of her turned white, and her slightly lowered eyes were full of fear, but in the end she only said two words, "It's okay."
Not long after Mu Jingping left, Shu Xin received a call from Tong Qiao, "Daughter-in-law, are you at work?"
