My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce-Chapter 856: Hou Jinhua Suffers a Burn on Her Face

Chapter 856 -856: Hou Jinhua Suffers a Burn on Her Face

A few days later, it was Qiao Yin’s birthday.

Shen Yujun got up early to cook her longevity noodles, and after Qiao Yin had eaten, she took her Grandmother to the Medical Clinic and started her day’s work just like usual.

To her, her birthday wasn’t anything special. She used to enjoy birthdays as a child because she would get lots of delicious food and gifts from her Grandmother, but as she grew up, it didn’t feel that significant anymore.

Of course, her Grandmother still gave her gifts this year, a very pretty white knit dress, a pair of quite fashionable apricot-colored rhinestone buckle Short Boots, and a white wool coat that was perfect for the current weather.

The one she bought herself had gotten quite a bit of Blood on it when she was injured, and although the dry cleaners had washed out the Blood stains, the collar was washed out and lost its original texture, so Shen Yujun bought her a new one.

Ye Wan arrived at the Medical Clinic at nine-thirty and gave Qiao Yin a scarf she had knitted herself.

It was milk-white in color, with a soft cashmere texture. She had spent more than two thousand just on the yarn, and then stealthily knitted it in the evenings after work.

This was the best gift she could offer.

Qiao Yin smiled and thanked her, then immediately wrapped the scarf around her neck to show her cousin and Grandmother.

After all, they were her closest people, knowing she liked the white palette; thus, the gifts they gave were mostly of this color.

After receiving the gifts, Qiao Yin threw herself back into work.

Busy until noon, after eating another serving of longevity noodles that the Old Madam had specially brought, Qiao Yin left the Medical Clinic with a cry of laughter and headed to the Hospital.

Lucky that a birthday only comes once a year—she couldn’t stand eating longevity noodles every single meal!

However, when she arrived at the Hospital, she didn’t expect to find an unwelcomed guest in front of her Office.

But today’s unwanted visitor was much easier to handle than Hou Jinhua from a few days prior.

Qiao Yin walked over, her voice carrying a hint of cold detachment, returning to her former aloofness, “Young Master Gu, do you need something?”

Gu Jing immediately felt her distance, from the very first day he met her, she had spoken to him in this manner.

It didn’t sit well with him, but looking at Qiao Yin’s swollen and bruised face, he had no right to expect her to speak to him with a gentle tone.

He frowned, “What’s with your face? Why does it still look like that? It’s been so many days, and it’s still swollen?”

“I don’t know what’s wrong either. Maybe Young Master Gu should go and ask your mother what was on her nails, because since she scratched my face, the wound just won’t heal. I’ve tried more than a dozen medications and none work. I want my face to be free of swelling more than anyone.”

Gu Jing was instantly dazed, “This has something to do with my mother’s nails? Impossible! Besides liking to get her nails done, there’s nothing else—it couldn’t possibly cause your face to stay swollen. You’re not blaming my mother without even using medication, are you?”

Qiao Yin looked at him impassively; like mother, like son, Gu Jing’s first reaction was to think his mother was being framed by her.

Although she was indeed framing Hou Jinhua, it seemed Gu Jing wasn’t as foolish or as naive as she had thought.

After all, a playboy who, despite his lack of knowledge, grew up in a Rich family like the Gu’s would understand what he should.

And lately, there had been rumors that Gu Jing was confined at Home by Gu Guotai and forced to study every day, that he hadn’t been out carousing for days, with no sign of him in the Bars.

With Gu Guotai’s careful guidance, Gu Jing should grow up quickly!

“Of course, I should blame your mother. My disfigurement was her doing, should I not hold her responsible? My face has turned into this, and when Young Master Gu saw it, his expression couldn’t wait to avoid it—how could I not be upset?”

As Qiao Yin spoke, her eyes reddened, “I didn’t take revenge and disfigure her in turn; I’ve been very restrained!”

Gu Jing watched her, speechless for a moment, before he finally said, “You don’t need to take revenge; a couple of days ago, she went back to her father’s home and got burned on the face. She’s still in the hospital, her injuries are no lighter than yours.”
