After the divorce, the boss tore off my vest with his own hands

"You are a friend I cherish very much. Even if there is no reason for you to be my brother, I still hope that you can be happy."

Chu Zhixin looked at Qiao An and said sincerely, "So, don't think too much and just stay here peacefully. Aunt Mei is a very good doctor. Let her take good care of you. Once you get well, you will have more energy and confidence to be a teacher or do something else in the future, right?"

"Miss Chu..."

Qiao An stared at Chu Zhixin blankly. Her already red eyes were even redder at this moment, and she was filled with emotion. "You are such a good person. No wonder Mr. Sheng likes you so much. You are both kind people at heart."

"Hey, I'm not a very nice person. I'm picky about people. I like you, so I'm nice to you. It's fate that brings us together."

Chu Zhixin said this carelessly, not wanting to make the atmosphere too sentimental.

Because to be honest, she didn't think she was that kind. She was so nice to Qiao An simply to pay off her brother's debt.

"This one……"

Chu Zhixin quickly handed the candied haws on the tray to Qiao An, "I have just made these candied haws. There are many flavors. Try them and see if they taste good."

"Sugar-coated haws……"

Qiao An then discovered what was on the tray. Her eyes lit up like stars, as if she had seen a long-lost treasure. "When I was a child, I loved eating candied haws the most, but I haven't eaten it for a long, long time."

“You can eat now!”

Chu Zhixin said enthusiastically: "If you are in a bad mood, you should eat something sweet. My brother even put osmanthus and rose in it. It should taste very good."

As soon as she said it, she regretted it a little...

Because mentioning my brother at this time is like mentioning a rotten apple under the brilliant fireworks, which is really depressing.

Sure enough, Qiao An originally stretched out his hand to try the candied haws on the tray, but after hearing Chu Zhixin's words, he immediately retracted his hand. His face turned cold and he had no emotion at all.

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Chu, but I have a toothache and can't eat, and..."

Qiao An paused and said meaningfully: "The things I liked when I was a child, I don't like them anymore when I grow up."

"Forehead……"

Chu Zhixin was a little embarrassed and wanted to slap herself to death. She really spoke too fast and brought up things that were not relevant to the topic!

"It's okay. Eating some sweets will help replenish your energy and heal your wound faster."

Aunt Mei advised, "It's just a candied haws, it doesn't mean anything else. Besides, things like taste can be diverse. If you taste it and find it unpalatable, it's okay to spit it out. We can try and make mistakes."

"Yes, yes, yes. Life is long, so you can make mistakes. If it doesn't taste good, just spit it out. The raw materials are cheap anyway, so it's totally fine to eat a bunch and spit it out."

Chu Zhixin quickly agreed.

"Then...then can I try one?"

Qiao An looked at Chu Zhixin and Aunt Mei with eager faces, and it was hard to refuse their kindness, so she symbolically took another string, tore open the candy wrapper, and took a careful bite.

"How about it?"

Chu Zhixin looked at Qiao An expectantly.

Because, she is the first one to taste it, her feedback is very important!

"..."

Joan just chewed quietly without making any comments, but she finished the first one and ate the second one without stopping.

"It looks pretty good, right?"

Chu Zhixin opened his eyes wide and stared at Qiao An without blinking, not missing any of the woman's movements. He was happy from the bottom of his heart for Qiao An's brave attempt.

“It tastes a little different than when I was a kid…”

After being quiet for a while, Qiao An finally spoke, "The one I had when I was a child was very sweet, but this one isn't that sweet. It's a little sweet, but... it has a sweet aftertaste at the end."

"Hahaha, that's pretty good. Candied haws are just sweet without sourness, which is boring. I like sweet and sour ones. It's more challenging."

After Chu Zhi finished speaking meaningfully, he also picked up a string and started eating.

"Hmm... it's delicious. I have to say, my brother's cooking skills are really good. I want him to start a catering business!"

Chu Zhixin had never tasted such delicious candied haws before. He ate several of them in one breath and started talking about Chu Zhihan in a smug manner.

But this time, Qiao An was not so disgusted, and even said: "He is really good at cooking. He was the one who cooked most of the time when I was a child."

"Is this... like this?"

Chu Zhixin was very cautious and didn't dare to breathe, for fear that breathing would make Qiao An "awake" again and hate his brother again.

At least at this moment, judging from Joan's expression and reaction, she should not hate her brother.

"If you like what he cooks, let him cook these days..."

Chu Zhixin took the opportunity to ask Qiao An, "What do you want to eat tonight? Just order whatever you want. I'll go buy some groceries and let my brother cook it when I'm done."

"It is all acceptable."

Qiao An tried hard to force a smile and looked at Chu Zhixin with gratitude, "Thank you for your care. It made me feel at home. I'm not afraid of you saying I'm shameless, but I really don't want to leave."

"If you don't want to leave, just stay as long as you want. We have a lot of rooms, and it will be lively with more people. Just thinking about it makes me happy."

Chu Zhixin was really happy about Qiao An's changes.

As long as a woman is willing to accept their kindness, there is room for maneuver. No matter what the outcome is, at least she can have a clear conscience.

"Well, we have disturbed Miss Qiao for so long. She needs to have a good rest."

Aunt Mei looked at the time and arranged for Chu Zhixin to leave the room.

After all, Qiao An had escaped death and her body was still very weak. She needed to rest more so that she could recover faster.

After the two of them left the room, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss Xinxin, this girl is so pitiful. Her body has deteriorated to a horrible degree. Whether she is willing or not, she needs to stay here and recuperate. Otherwise... something will happen sooner or later."

Aunt Mei and Chu Zhixin went downstairs and couldn't wait to tell Chu Zhixin,

"I also hope that she can stay and let us take care of her for a while, but..."

Chu Zhixin raised his head and looked in the direction of Qiao An's room, feeling a little worried.

"What's wrong? Didn't Miss Qiao decide to stay just now?"

Aunt Mei didn't understand what Chu Zhixin was worried about.

"She said so, but who knows what she really has in mind? You don't know her. This girl is very stubborn. I'm afraid she will agree on the surface but do something stupid behind her back..."

"That shouldn't be the case. She doesn't need to joke about her own body, does she?"

After getting to know Qiao An, Aunt Mei felt that she was a very well-behaved girl, but she had a miserable life and lacked love.

"uncertain."

Chu Zhixin sighed, "After all, we have a brother at home who can be a time bomb... you know."
