After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 436: Xiao Nan Chen voluntarily gave up



Chapter 436

An Nuan directly dragged Xia Qiqi up from the bed, "Did you sleep for an entire afternoon?"

Xia Qiqi's whole body was soft and weak.

Being dragged up by An Nuan, she just leaned against the headboard, refusing to get up.

She lazily said, "Aren't I supposed to be resting after giving birth? Isn't resting well the best way to recover after giving birth?"

Clearly still feeling somewhat smug.

An Nuan was truly speechless.

She helped Xia Qiqi get up from the bed, "Go wash up, it'll be time for dinner soon."

It took a great deal of effort for Xia Qiqi to actually follow An Nuan to the bathroom.

An Nuan wrung out a hot towel for her, "Hurry up and wake yourself up from your drowsiness."

As Xia Qiqi wiped her cheeks, she was also trying hard to make herself more alert.

An Nuan just stood by her side waiting for Xia Qiqi, and casually asked, "Were you up late again last night?"

Xia Qiqi didn't say anything.

Silence generally meant that she was right.

"I told you to rest properly, yet you choose to play around at night and sleep during the day?! Qiqi, can you take better care of your health? Do you still want to live well for the second half of your life or not." An Nuan couldn't help but admonish her.

"I feel my health is pretty good right now. As strong as an ox, you don't know, after the miscarriage, even my stomach felt comfortable, I feel like the whole world is brighter, it's not as exaggerated as you make it sound." Xia Qiqi retorted.

"You're still young so of course your health is good now. Once you get older, many underlying issues will surface, those will be the root of disaster."

Xia Qiqi had an utterly nonchalant expression.

"Did any of that get through to you?" An Nuan was truly frustrated by her obstinacy.

Xia Qiqi would always be like an immature child.

"Yeah." Xia Qiqi casually agreed.

"Done washing up?" An Nuan asked.

"Yup."

"Let's go downstairs for dinner, I came over just as your maid said it'll be ready to eat very soon. We shouldn't keep them waiting too long." An Nuan urged her along.

Xia Qiqi followed behind An Nuan as they headed downstairs.

From young till now, An Nuan was only half a year older than her, yet she didn't know why, she just habitually listened to An Nuan's arrangements.

She always felt that An Nuan had a sort of "motherly" aura about her.

The two of them walked downstairs.

Xia Zhenghai had also just gotten off work and returned home, he was currently sitting on the sofa, seemingly waiting for Xia Qiqi.

He just sat there waiting without asking the maid to wake her up.

Sometimes An Nuan felt that Xia Zhenghai spoiled Xia Qiqi far too much, he clearly let Xia Qiqi get away with anything.

"An Nuan, you're here." Xia Zhenghai warmly looked at An Nuan when he saw her.

"Hello Uncle Xia." An Nuan greeted him very politely.

"There there there." Xia Zhenghei quickly stood up from the sofa, "Let's have dinner together."

"Alright." An Nuan obediently nodded.

Xia Qiqi's attitude towards Xia Zhenghai was much cooler.

On the surface, she made it clear she didn't like Xia Zhenghai.

In fact, if she really had no feelings for him, she wouldn't have chosen to commit suicide herself after her father's suicide in her past life.

Just thinking about the scenes from her past life still made An Nuan feel somewhat shaken.

She felt that she must have a good talk with Xia Qiqi tonight.

The three of them sat around the dinner table.

Xia Zhenghai kept urging An Nuan to eat more.

An Nuan also very politely ate quite a lot to give him face.

The portions were so big that even Xia Qiqi started feeling suspicious, "An Nuan, you aren't pregnant are you?!"

"What nonsense are you saying." An Nuan was truly about to have a breakdown.

All she had been hearing recently were exclamations that she was pregnant?!

Even if she actually wasn't pregnant, she felt she wouldn't be able to explain herself to these people.

"Then why are you eating so much? Aren't you afraid you'll become fat?"

"It's because your family's cooking is delicious that I'm eating more." An Nuan forcibly explained.

Xia Qiqi pouted.

Having heard An Nuan say she liked the food, Xia Zhenghai quickly took the initiative to put more dishes onto her plate, "An Nuan, go ahead and eat more, don't listen to Qiqi's nonsense. Eating more for one or two meals won't make you gain weight. And since you like uncle's cooking, feel free to come over more often. Other than the maids, it's usually just Qiqi and I in this big house, so it does feel rather lonely."

"Alright." An Nuan quickly nodded.

With only Xia Zhenghai and Xia Qiqi in the house, it was indeed somewhat desolate.

Adding on top of that Xia Qiqi's clear dislike towards interacting with Xia Zhenghai, Xia Zhenghai was probably even more lonely.

After dinner, Xia Qiqi brought An Nuan to Xia family's backyard garden villa, sitting together in a pavilion.

The maid brewed tea for them.

Xia Qiqi lay comfortably reclined back on a deck chair, swaying back and forth, looking completely carefree.

It was as if the car accident leading to her miscarriage from a few days ago had no effect on her whatsoever.

"What did you come to find me for today?" Xia Qiqi looked up at the twinkling stars in the night sky and asked.

"To talk about you and Xiao Nanchen."

"I figured you were here to talk about that." Xia Qiqi had a very knowing look, "Go ahead and say what you need to, I'll listen."

An Nuan frowned slightly.

Hadn't Xia Qiqi always been very averse towards Xiao Nanchen? Why the sudden change in attitude now?!

She didn't want to speculate too much. Between true friends, there couldn't be any bad intentions.

"I think you should be together with Xiao Nanchen." An Nuan first stated her viewpoint before continuing on to say, "The child is gone, the both of you can have more in the future. This should not be a reason for the two of you to divorce. You and Xiao Nanchen had great difficulty getting together in the first place. Of course, I know you'll say it's because he forced you, whether it was forced or not, in the end you still ended up together. You chose to marry him, you chose to bear his child. Qiqi, don't you think you actually like Xiao Nanchen?"

Xia Qiqi's expression was extremely cold.

An Nuan truly didn't feel Xia Qiqi was usually a calm sort of person, yet at that moment she was exceptionally composed.

She turned to look straight at An Nuan and very solemnly asked, "Have you spoken to Xiao Nanchen about this?"

"Huh?"

"I asked, have you spoken to Xiao Nanchen and asked if our marriage could continue or not?"

"Is there any need to ask?! Xiao Nanchen loves you so deeply. As long as you're willing to start over with him again, I'm completely sure he would accept it."

"An Nuan, you still don't really understand Xiao Nanchen. Yes, I admit, Xiao Nanchen is a wonderful person who treats everyone well, giving others the feeling of a gentle spring breeze. But this sort of person will find it very easy to hold grudges if you accidentally offend him. I carelessly caused his child to miscarry, he'll remember this forever. Do you know why I moved out of Xiao Nanchen's home? It's because Xiao Nanchen wanted us to have a trial separation, not because I initiated it."

An Nuan pressed her lips together.

She also hadn't expected Xiao Nanchen to be so deeply affected.

In her perspective, compared to the baby in the belly, what Xiao Nanchen cared for more was Xia Qiqi herself.

"You kept persuading me to start over with Xiao Nanchen again. So I want to ask you, what if you were me? What if you had a miscarriage... "

"Could we use a more positive example." An Nuan directly interrupted Xia Qiqi's words.

Xia Qiqi rolled her eyes at An Nuan and said, "I'm just giving an analogy. If you had a miscarriage, and after the miscarriage Ye Jinghuai completely ignored you, even wanting to separate. How would you feel? Would you still think that Ye Jinghuai loved you?!"
