Chapter 294: Chapter 294 Update 5
When the phone rang, Bi Xia was still laughing at the banter between Qin Zhan and Xia Shi, with Xu Renfei chiming in occasionally, the teasing in his eyes quite evident.
Pinching Little Bun’s cheek, who was sitting on his lap, he raised his hand to take out his phone. Seeing the caller ID, he was first stunned, then quickly got up. Under the gaze of several pairs of eyes in the ward, he nodded, opened the door, and walked out.
"Hello, this is Bi Xia."
"Hello Xiao Xia, this is Qu Ming... from last week at Dream Drunk... do you remember?" Upon hearing Bi Xia’s voice, Qu Ming first breathed a sigh of relief and nodded towards Wen Yang as he spoke.
Leaning against the corner, Bi Xia smiled, "How could I forget? It left quite an impression."
Hearing Bi Xia’s words, Qu Ming also chuckled softly, "Indeed, it was memorable, but... huh? Why does your voice sound a bit off?"
Hearing Qu Ming’s sudden self-mutter, Bi Xia couldn’t help but laugh. Realizing his mumbling was overheard, Qu Ming awkwardly laughed as well, "Actually, I wanted to ask if we need to reschedule our meeting at the Blue Mountain Cafe at 3:30 PM on Friday that you mentioned last time?"
Hearing Qu Ming’s words, Bi Xia felt puzzled, "No need to reschedule, 3:30 PM on Friday at the Blue Mountain Cafe, why? Do you have something else to attend to..."
"It’s not that," Qu Ming helplessly exchanged glances with Wen Yang and chuckled softly, "Xiao Xia, today is Saturday."
Bi Xia: ...Saturday??
Oh my God! Did I sleep for an entire day! Completely missed out on Friday’s good time??
Shouting in frustration, no wonder Qin Zhan told him he’d go crazy if he didn’t wake up soon. If it were her, she’d probably feel the same...
Slapping his forehead, Bi Xia forced a smile, "Ah! I’m really sorry! It’s Saturday today!"
"Sorry, something happened at home yesterday, my mom was hospitalized. I’m at the hospital now, and I forgot to tell you guys."
"The ID has been sorted. If you’re available tomorrow, how about meeting at the Blue Mountain Cafe at 10 AM?"
Hearing Bi Xia’s explanation, Qu Ming was initially stunned. He then asked first, "Hospitalized? Is everything alright?" Wen Yang, upon hearing Qu Ming’s words, also looked at him worriedly.
Bi Xia shook his head and spoke into the phone, "She’s awake now, nothing serious. I’ll explain more tomorrow. By the way, Qu Ming bro, I need to apologize first."
"What’s the matter?" Qu Ming asked in confusion.
"When I was renaming you and Wen Yang bro, I looked you up and found out that you used to be a divorce lawyer, right? And Wen Yang bro is a skilled trader, correct?"
Qu Ming had it on speakerphone. Upon hearing Bi Xia’s words, they exchanged a glance and said simultaneously, "Yes, that’s right."
Bi Xia pursed his lips, "Can I ask you guys for a favor?"
"What kind of favor?" Qu Ming asked.
Starlit eyes slightly drooping, he looked down at the shiny floor, and spoke slowly, "Help my mom get a divorce."
Qu Ming and Wen Yang were both stunned, divorce?!
"Xiao Xia, divorce is a significant matter, does it concern your mom?" Wen Yang took over the phone and asked.
Bi Xia responded affirmatively, "Yes, it’s very much related, it can’t be tolerated any longer. Qu Ming bro, Wen Yang bro, I can’t find anyone else I trust, so I can only turn to you..."
"...Alright, Xiao Xia, don’t worry. We’ll talk about it in detail when we meet tomorrow. If we can help, we will do our best."
After ending the call, Bi Xia lingered outside the ward for a long time, listening to the occasional laughter from inside. The starry eyes that were once dark and profound gradually became clearer.
[Your Majesty, don’t worry. Following the trajectory from the previous life, as long as Qu Ming takes the case, your mom will win the divorce lawsuit. We just need to ensure safety measures for both of them.]
Responding faintly, Bi Xia knew everything 007 said, but she suddenly remembered the unease Xiao Wu mentioned before. Now she realized that Xiao Wu’s reaction directly concerned her, and her family was crucial to her. It seemed the previous unease came from Xia Shi and Bi Xiaoyuan...
Fortunately, precautions were taken in advance. This time Xia Shi was able to avoid disaster thanks to that protective bracelet. Otherwise, hitting the back of his head on the table corner wouldn’t have been a joke...
Those dangerous factors need to be resolved swiftly...
