Xia Xiaoxin sat down beside him with a smile, ”is this the way we meet and say hello? Have to be so tit for tat? ”

Joe hummed in cold weather, picked up a grape and put it into his mouth. He chewed it slowly. His eyes flashed. He didn't know what he was thinking.

Xia Xiaoxin poured a cup of tea and handed it over, ”thirsty? Have a cup of tea? ”

Qiao Yitian saw that she was concerned about herself, so she couldn't help reaching for her.

Who knows has not touched the edge of the cup, Xia Xiaoxin suddenly retracted the cup back, ”ah! How can I forget! You can't have a cup of tea with me

After she said this, Joe remembered that the servant had been adding special powder to her diet according to his instructions.

At the moment, she drew back her hand, spit out a few grape seeds under her feet, and said faintly, ”just right, I'm not very thirsty.”

Xia Xiaoxin sent the cup to his lips with a smile and took a sip, picking his eyebrows to see him? Did you find Jiang Ying? ”

Qiao Yitian frowned tightly. ”She seemed to be evaporated suddenly. I've been to all the places you said she might go, and I didn't find her. Her existence, if not for the private detective to provide me with all kinds of proof, I really want to doubt that you say is not all lies

Hearing Qiao Yitian's words, Xia Xiaoxin's heart suddenly fell, but he said calmly as far as possible: ”now you already know that what I said is really the truth, right?”

Joe glanced at her faintly. He didn't speak. He just kept throwing grapes into his mouth. Soon, a pile of grape skins and seeds had accumulated under his feet.

Xia Xiaoxin frowned, knowing that he certainly didn't want to let go of himself, and now he didn't speak any more. He just drank tea in silence, and his relaxed and happy mood disappeared in an instant.

For a long time, Joe said wearily, ”I'm very tired. I'll sleep with my eyes closed for a while.”

Xia Xiaoxin said in a hurry, ”why don't you go to your room and sleep! It's not very comfortable here after all. ”

But Qiao Yitian's eyes were closed, and his index finger rubbed gently on his temple, ”No. I don't want to move now! You may doze off and run again

Hear him say so, although Xia Xiaoxin thinks he disturbed his quiet, but here is his territory after all, he has no right to drive him away.

What's more, I'm at a disadvantage now, so it's better to get along with him.

Now I don't speak any more, just let him go.

Fortunately, he doesn't snore, so Xia Xiaoxin turns to read his book as if he doesn't exist.

Who knows that his sleep is an afternoon, until dusk, he did not wake up signs.

But at this time, the day suddenly blew a gale, big raindrops big beans down.

Xia Xiaoxin thinks it's fun to swing around in the wind. After playing alone for a while, he looks at Qiao Yitian and sees him curled up on the couch, his whole posture like a baby curled up in his mother's palace.

Such him, did not have in the past the overbearing arrogance, poured several points pitiful implication.

Xia Xiaoxin sighed, thinking that in fact, he is just an ordinary man!

It was getting late, and it was raining harder and harder, and the wind was blowing harder and harder, so she got up and went to wake him up to go back to the castle together.

But a closer look, it is obvious that something is wrong with him.

His face was red, he was short of breath, and his body was shivering with cold.

Did he have a nightmare? Or sick?

Xia Xiaoxin suspiciously reached out to wake him up, but as soon as his hand touched the skin of his arm, he was scalded back.

He is really sick!

It seems that this long journey is a very hard ordeal for him.

Xia Xiaoxin has a trace of pity for him.

He was about to run back to the castle in the rain and ask the housekeeper to come and take him away, but he saw that the housekeeper had come with an umbrella.

”Miss Xia.” The housekeeper hurried up to him and collected his umbrella.

Xia Xiaoxin quickly grabbed him and said, ”your husband is ill! Take him to the hospital as soon as possible! ”

Housekeeper ”ah” a, quickly step forward, stretched out his hand toward Qiao Yitian's forehead, when found that he is really in a high fever, quickly without saying a word, immediately said to Xia Xiaoxin: ”Miss Xia, you give me a hand, help me to Mr. support.”

Xia Xiaoxin nodded, went forward to help him with the housekeeper, and then let him fall on the housekeeper's back, and then opened the umbrella for them.

Looking at the housekeeper and the driver driving away with Qiao Yitian, Xia Xiaoxin slowly spits out a long breath.
