Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

Chapter 3308: Nie Qingru Has Made a Decision

Editor: Atlas Studios

He himself did not know what was going on outside.

There wasn’t a single part of his body that did not hurt, but none of this was as painful as the disappointed look Nie Qingru gave him at the hotel that day.

“The dressing has been changed. The patient has to rest more.”

The doctor gave him a few instructions.

Nie Qixing ignored him. He didn’t even spare a glance, as if the doctors and nurses were not worth his attention.

The doctor was used to his arrogance. He dutifully explained what he needed to do and tidied up the things with the nurse before leaving.

He bumped into someone standing at the door.

The doctor was stunned for a moment before calling out, “Madam Nie.”

Nie Qingru asked, “How is he?”

The doctor knew that she had a powerful background. As for who she was, he did not know and did not want to ask. He said politely, “The patient’s health is improving, but his leg…”

“Tell me.”

“His leg had been injured to begin with and has never recovered. Logically speaking, if he recovers well, there’s still a possibility that he can walk in the future.

“But he hadn’t recovered yet and he got injured again, causing his leg injury to become more serious. I don’t know when he’ll recover. Even if he can… he won’t recover much.”

Nie Qingru had long known that Nie Qixing’s leg would be permanently disabled.

Experts had said that even the most optimistic outcome after rehabilitation would be a slight limp.

The meaning behind the doctor’s words was clear. No matter how Nie Qixing recovered in the future, he would suffer from a severe disability. In the future, he might be like Lu Zhi, unable to leave the wheelchair for the rest of his life.

Her successor… could have a slight limp.

But if Nie Qixing was completely disabled…

Nie Qingru rubbed the space between her eyebrows and waved for the doctor to leave. “I understand.”

The doctor and nurse wheeled the cart away.

Shadow could guess what she was thinking. His heartbeat was fast as he opened his mouth and said, “Young Master Qi is still young. If these doctors can’t do it, we just have to find better ones.”

This time, Nie Qingru did not reply. She just silently pushed the door and walked into the ward.

“Get out.” Nie Qixing lay on the hospital bed, thinking that the doctor had come back. He scolded with a cold face.

Then, he heard Shadow’s voice. “Young Master Qi, the Empress is here to see you.”

Nie Qixing’s originally lifeless eyes quickly focused. When he saw the person in front of his bed clearly, he forced himself to sit up. “Sister… you…”

Shadow couldn’t bear to see him like this and went forward to support him.

“Young Master Qi, be careful.”

“Mm.”

Nie Qixing had been looking at Nie Qingru the whole time. He did not even look at him.

He did not seem to expect Nie Qingru to come. For a moment, he did not know what to say. He thought before saying, “The Privy Council didn’t make things difficult for you, right?”

Not knowing what to think, Nie Qingru walked over and tucked him in, then indifferently said, “No.”

Nie Qixing could smell her fragrance. The heavy sandalwood fragrance should belong to an old woman, but it gave him endless fantasies.

He had been by Nie Qingru’s side since he could remember. At first, he thought he was her son, but later on, he realized he was her younger brother.

Her blood-related younger brother at that.

But he had a twisted fantasy that he could not extricate himself from.

“What’s with that woman?” Nie Qingru suddenly asked after straightening up.

Nie Qixing’s eyes narrowed. He looked up and saw the traces of time that could not be hidden on her face. His eyes flickered. “Just… an ordinary woman.”
