Rebirth: Pampered Wife’S Counterattack novel Chapter 174

At most, he would learn how to coax her.

Fang Xinxin noticed his stern expression and suddenly laughed, revealing her pearly teeth. "I want to laugh. Can I do that?"

"That's allowed." His response was strangely hilarious, but his innate, cold disposition dampened the humour. She did not find him funny, and instead he seemed aloof.

Still, she understood he was trying to cheer her up. Hence, she was delighted.

The two of them got off the bed and tidied themselves up. He quickly regained his cool, noble and powerful charisma.

At this moment, Bai Qinghao's phone rang. Fang Xinxin noticed that the other party's tone sounded flustered, but could not catch what he was saying.

Bai Qinghao quickly bid her farewell and left hurriedly.

Fang Xinxin sat down by her father's bedside and adjusted the blankets for him.

"Dad, you have to get better." As she watched Long Yifan, her gaze was apologetic. "In the past, I never took good care of you. But from now onwards, I won't allow you to suffer even the slightest bit of harm."

Long Yifan, who had been unconscious for a long time, did not respond to her.

She sighed. "Dad, did you know? In the past, I had a father and a mother who loved me. But now I think that mom has changed. She has become... completely different from the way she used to be. I'm not sure why this is so. But I'll definitely investigate this clearly.

I hope you'll wake up soon. But even if you can't, you have to live on well. As long as you're alive, I'll still have a family member who truly loves me. Perhaps... you're the only family I have left."

Although tears welled up in her eyes, she forcefully held them back.

"Bai Qinghao arranged for two bodyguards to stand guard outside your ward. He has also hired the best doctors and nurses to take care of you. There'll be care workers massaging you everyday. You won't develop bed sores again."

She sniffled before continuing in an emotional voice. "In fact, I should be the one staying by your side to care for you. But Brother Shaohua is in jail. He has been locked up for three years. Fang Manxue fed me with weight-gain drugs. I can't be powerless any longer. I have to become strong in order to protect you and to rescue my brother... there are too many things I need to do. I'm helpless and can only rely on the staff here to take care of you. But don't worry. I'll come and visit you whenever I'm free."
