After staying in the hospital for a week, Wen Nianshu sent Li Susu to the best confinement center in the city.

After properly settling all matters, she decided to go to Country S and bring that bastard Bo Junyi back.

Just then, Bo Mingxiu called.

On the other end of the phone, he calmly explained that he had a heart problem and needed surgery.

In order not to worry her, I didn't dare to tell her before.

Now that the operation has been successfully completed, he told her the truth and told Wen Nianshu to take care of Li Susu and the child and not to worry about him.

Wen Nianshu's face darkened when she heard this: "How could you hide such a big thing from me? It made Susu worried too!"

Bo Mingxiu helplessly explained, "Susu knew about it a long time ago. She hid it from you because she was afraid you would get anxious and angry."

Wen Nianshu turned to look at Li Susu beside her, only to see her nodding obediently.

Bo Mingxiu's heart problems have recurred over the years, and Wen Nianshu has been somewhat prepared: "Since Jun Yi is taking care of you over there, I won't go over. Su Su and the two children need someone to help them."

Bo Mingxiu quickly agreed.

Wen Nianshu thought for a moment and added, "Although there are reasons for what happened, Jun Yi did miss the important moment of Su Su's delivery. Let him video call Su Su more often and apologize sincerely."

Bo Mingxiu nodded quickly.

On the night she moved into the confinement center, Li Susu received a call from Bo Junyi for the first time.

A familiar name kept flashing on the caller ID.

She held the phone and hesitated for a long time before finally pressing the answer button.

After the call was connected, the two fell into silence across the phone.

After a long while, Bo Junyi called softly: "Su Su——"

Hearing the familiar voice, Li Susu couldn't help but feel ripples in her heart.

But compared to the pain and suffering during childbirth, this fluctuation is nothing.

She said calmly: "What's wrong?"

The cold and distant tone made Bo Junyi's breathing stagnate, and it took him a long time to find his voice: "How has your recovery been these past two days? Does your wound still hurt?"

"It's much better than right after the operation." Li Susu's tone was calm, as if she was narrating a very ordinary thing.

Bo Junyi was filled with guilt: "Susu, I'm sorry for not being able to be with you. I will definitely make it up to you double in the future."

Li Susu chuckled, but her voice was a little hoarse: "It's all over. You take good care of Dad over there..."

At this point, she suddenly choked up, afraid that he would hear something strange, so she suppressed her emotions and continued, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll go check on the baby and send you the video later."

"Susu--" Bo Junyi wanted to say something, but the only response he got was the cold hang-up notification on the phone screen.

Looking at the black screen of his phone, Bo Junyi felt a sense of loss in his heart.

He did miss his children, but the person he longed to see most at this moment was her.

He wanted to confess all his difficulties countless times, but when he thought that she was still in the confinement period and needed to rest, he swallowed the words back.

In the confinement center, Li Susu was taken care of meticulously, and the two babies were well-behaved and worry-free. Most of the care work was undertaken by professionals.

She had insufficient milk, so she only breastfed symbolically during the day and fed with formula at night.

Without the frequent crying disturbances, her sleep gradually became regular, and the entanglement between Bo Junyi and Chu Wanning that once troubled her also gradually faded from her mind.

The thought of divorce would pop up from time to time, but every time she saw her baby's tender little face, she knew that she could not give up this blood-related bond.

She told herself that as long as she didn't ask for Bo Junyi's love, she could stay at home and watch her children grow up, and she could live a stable life.

She secretly thought that even if something unexpected happened in the future, she must let her child remember his mother.

In the blink of an eye, it was a full moon.

Li Susu's wound healed well, but Wen Nianshu was still worried and insisted that she stay for another half a month to recuperate.

During this period, Bo Junyi would video call her almost every day to ask about her and the baby's situation.

She answered every question, her tone as calm as usual, as if nothing had happened, but she never asked him when he would be back again, nor did she call him "husband" as affectionately as before.

How could Bo Junyi not see her loss? Looking at Li Susu who was pretending to be strong on the screen, he secretly made up his mind: after the skin grafting surgery the day after tomorrow, he would tell her all the truth. He planned to perform the subsequent minor surgery after returning to China.

She didn't want her to continue suffering like this.

He was also worried that she would be completely disappointed in him and turn away.

On the day of leaving the confinement center, Zhou Huaixu came.

As soon as we met, he took the initiative to mention the arrangements to go to Country S.

Li Susu, who once longed to fly to Bo Junyi, no longer had that eagerness.

After experiencing this period of solitude after giving birth, her mood has quietly changed.

What if Bo Junyi and Chu Wanning really have a dispute? How should she deal with it given her current situation?

Compared to the pain of facing her lover's betrayal, she could not bear to give up the two little lives in her arms.

These two babies were the result of her desperate ten months of pregnancy.

She knew that if she abandoned her child and ran away because of a momentary impulse, she would probably collapse.

Thinking of this, she calmly declined: "Thank you, Senior, but I don't want to go."

Zhou Huaixu obviously didn't expect her to give up, and subconsciously persuaded her: "Don't hesitate, my brother must be looking forward to seeing you."

Li Susu pulled up a bitter smile, and Chu Wanning's figure suddenly flashed through her mind.

In an instant, she changed her mind: "Okay, then I'll trouble you to arrange it."

Since she has decided to protect this family and her children, perhaps she should go to S country to meet Chu Wanning in person and let her see her determination.

When Li Susu proposed to go to Country S, Wen Nianshu refused.

After all, she had just come out of confinement and her body was still recovering, so it was really worrying to let her travel alone.

But when she heard that Zhou Huaixu would also go with her to visit his uncle in Country S and that someone would take care of him on the way, Wen Nianshu finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

Seeing the unconcealed anticipation in Li Susu's eyes, Wen Nianshu guessed that she might want to give Bo Junyi a surprise. So, she tacitly didn't announce it in advance and just quietly helped her pack her luggage.

The next afternoon, Li Susu and Zhou Huaixu hurried to the airport.

The transoceanic flight was long, and by the time the plane landed in Country S, it was already the morning of the next day, when the light of day was dim.

Thanks to Zhou Huaixu having greeted Bo Mingxiu in advance, a black car was already waiting there as soon as he walked out of the airport gate.

Bo Mingxiu's driver came over familiarly. Seeing Li Susu, he immediately took out his cell phone and called: "Chairman, the young lady is here too!"

Hearing that Li Susu was also coming, Bo Mingxiu's heart suddenly tightened.

His fingertips unconsciously stroked the cuffs of his suit. He was silent for a moment and sighed.

Everyone is already here, there is no need to hide anything.

Besides, her son had already planned to confess everything to her after the operation.

Bo Mingxiu solemnly instructed the driver, "Jun Yi is still in surgery, take them to the company first."
