When the door closed, Aunt Zhou, who was arranging the roses in a vase, remarked offhandedly, âMiss Su and her husbandâs relationship seems to be really good.â
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener read more into it.
Xiao Yebai glanced at Mo Weiyi, who was looking back at him.
After a brief exchange of looks, Mo Weiyi turned away, âAunt Zhou, have you finished tidying up?â
âAh, yes, let me just put these roses into the vase.â
âThereâs no need to do that.â
Aunt Zhou was taken aback.
The man laying on the hospital bed also looked over.
Mo Weiyi smiled brightly and sweetly, âDonât you dislike flowers? Wanwan said she bought these for me, Aunt Zhou, you should take them home.â
Xiao Yebai: ââ¦â
Aunt Zhou hesitated for a moment, then promptly took the roses out of the vase, âAlright, princess.â
These days, their princess was increasingly unpredictable.
But it was good that the young couple had reconciled; they were no longer sitting in cold silence like before.

At the elevator entrance.
As soon as the elevator arrived, Su Wanwan immediately said, âAlright, you better get in.â
Huo Jingshen, clutching her soft hand, looked deeply into her eyes as he hinted, âJust like that?â
âWhat else do you want?â Su Wanwan warned, âThis is a hospital, can you be a little more considerate?â
As she finished speaking, she tried to pull her hand away.
Yet, Huo Jingshen held it firmly. It wasnât painful and he didnât seem forceful, but she just couldnât pull her hand away.
As expected, Huo Jingshen directly opened his mouth to speak.
Su Wanwan was rendered speechless.
After a while, she realized that whenever he wanted her to do something, she had to do it.
Otherwise, he would persist relentlessly.
As expected, Huo Jingshen smiled in satisfaction, delicately curling his lips, âAlright, Iâm going to work.â
âHmm.â
Today was the last working day for the Huo Yuan Group and the boss had to personally attend, truly a dedicated and responsible leader.
Before Su Wanwan could finish expressing her admiration, Huo Jingshen suddenly suggested, âOr⦠I wonât go, baby, come home with me.â
Su Wanwan: ââ¦â
She promptly pushed the man into the elevator.
Quickly, leave!
Not until the elevator door closed, did she turn around, laughing helplessly.
He was really childish!
He canât stand praise!
Just as she was walking away, her phone rang.
Su Wanwan felt even more exasperated.
Can he even function without her?
Was he really that clingy?
He was already calling her after she had just left?
Couldnât they spend a minute apart?
Frustrated, she took out her phone, only to realize it wasnât Huo Jingshen who had called⦠cough, cough, cough.
How awkward.
Su Wanwan quickly answered, âAunt Yang, whatâs up? Did something happen to my grandfather?â
It was the Su Familyâs housemaid, Aunt Yang.
âMiss, itâs not the master, itâs the masterâs son, heâs sick.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Su Yuntang?
Su Wanwan knit her thin eyebrows, âWhatâs wrong with him?â
âHeâs running a fever, his temperature is at thirty-nine degrees.â
âOh.â Su Wanwanâs heart, which had been lifted slightly, sank back down. She nonchalantly responded, âSince heâs running a fever, he should go to the hospital for an IV. He should recover very soon. As an adult, he shouldnât melodramatically endure the fever. As long as my grandfather is fine, I have some other things to attend to, so Iâll hang up now.â
âAh, Miss, Missâ¦â
The call was abruptly cut-off.
**
At the Su Family Villa.
On the second floor hallway, Aunt Yang, phone in hand, looked nervously at Jiang Yi, âMadam, Miss hung up the phone.â
Jiang Yiâs brow furrowed, âWhat did she say?â
âI told her that the masterâs son was running a fever, that his temperature reached thirty-nine degrees, and she said he should go to the hospital for IV.â
ââ¦â Jiang Yiâs expression darkened.
After a while.
Jiang Yi spoke, âAlright, go on with your work.â
âYes, Madam.â Aunt Yang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately left.
It was all her fault. When she was about to call the Miss, the Madam saw her and asked what she was doing.
âWait.â Jiang Yiâs voice suddenly sounded again.
Aunt Yang was scared stiff, she turned around, âMadam.â
Jiang Yi looked at her unhappily, âWhy are you so jittery? Have you done something wrong?â
âNo, Madam, I didnât do anything.â Aunt Yangâs heart jumped nearly out of her chest.
Jiang Yiâs face softened a bit, âGo clean Missâs room first, buy whatever you need, and remember, it has to be the best and most expensive. Donât forget to keep the receipts for me.â
Aunt Yang hesitated, âAlright.â
âGo on.â
âYes.â
Aunt Yang turned again and this time she directly went to Su Wanwanâs room.
Jiang Yi opened the door to their main bedroom.
Su Yuntang was lying on the large bed in the room. His fever had just faded, making his face look very weak.
âYuntang, I just had the maid call Wanwan, but she hung up.â As Jiang Yi sat next to the bed, she watched her husbandâs facial expression while speaking, âYuntang, why donât you⦠directly call her?â
As soon as he heard this, Su Yuntangâs face crimsoned, âAsk me to call that wretched girl? Impossible!â
âYuntang.â Jiang Yi quickly encouraged, âAfter all, youâre her father. The last incident was indeed a mistake on YanYanâs and my part. We accused Wanwan unfairly, causing you and dad to misunderstand Everythingâs fine now, a family doesnât harbor grudges overnight. After all, sheâs the daughter of the Su Family. Now that sheâs married into the Huo Family, weâre relativesâ¦â
