Chapter 807: She Wants to Drive a Wedge
When Xia Qingtian came back, the dishes she had ordered were already served.
Bo’s mother looked at the table of dishes, seemingly drooling over them, but thinking of her illness, she sadly put down her chopsticks and just watched.
Xia Qingtian gave her a puzzled look, "Why aren’t you eating? Is it not to your taste?"
Bo’s mother swallowed her saliva before saying, "I’m ill, I have to avoid certain foods and can’t eat these dishes."
Xia Qingtian knew about her illness, so she was somewhat suspicious whether Bo’s mother was intentionally trying to get back at her.
Xia Qingtian really didn’t do it on purpose.
She just knew that Bo’s mother’s cancer hadn’t recurred, and everything was Shi Qian’s doing, so she subconsciously treated her as a normal person and didn’t think too much about it.
Now, seeing Bo’s mother clearly longing to eat but painfully resisting because of her sickness, Xia Qingtian felt a bit tender-hearted; after all, Bo’s mother was actually healthy and could eat whatever she wanted.
Now she had to suppress her own desires because of a lie Shi Qian told.
Xia Qingtian placed a piece of diced chicken in Bo’s mother’s bowl and said, "One must enjoy life to the fullest, why worry about so much? Eat first and speak later. If we don’t live happily, then what’s the point of living?"
