Sheng Nanyin carried Zeze into the master bedroom, leaving Huo Beichen alone.

Forget it, let her be. Just don't let her see the child anymore.

Huo Beichen himself stormed into the bathroom.

After returning to the room, Sheng Nanyin gently wiped away the child's tears and said softly, "Zeze, your father hopes you will grow up to be a man, you know?"

Zeze mumbled something but didn't say anything.

Sheng Nanyin sat on the bed, holding the little one on her lap.

"Your father is a powerful figure in City C. He has to deal with all sorts of difficult problems every day. You students get holidays when you're in school, but he doesn't. He's busy all the time. Do you know why he's so busy?"

She looked at the little figure.

Zeze thought for a moment and replied, "I know. Dad is a member of the Huo family, and the Huo family bears a heavy responsibility that others cannot."

"..."

“Uh…” Sheng Nanyin was stunned for a moment. She just wanted to tell him that Huo Beichen did this for him.

“Aunt Nanyin, I know, my father also hopes that I can become like him in the future.”

Sheng Nanyin patted his head. "So what do you think?"

"I will definitely become like my dad in the future, but... but sometimes I am still afraid."

Sheng Nanyin gently rubbed the tips of her son's ears, "Zeze, you won't be afraid when you grow up a bit more. Children's courage hasn't grown up yet."

"Really? Do other people do this too?" Zeze asked with a childlike expression.

"Yes," Sheng Nanyin answered with absolute certainty.

"oh."

Zeze lowered her little head, but surely there are exceptions.

After coaxing the child to calm him down, Sheng Nanyin helped him wash up and change his clothes. After they were all ready, the two of them went to have breakfast together.

As for Huo Beichen, she didn't even say hello.

When Lu Dongjue brought Yun Suiwan back to Courtyard No. 2, she had already fallen into a deep sleep, leaning on his shoulder.

The car came to a steady stop in the yard, and the driver got out, but Lu Dongjue remained motionless for a long time.

Looking at Yun Suiwan's thin face, he felt a surge of indescribable emotions.

Feeling sorry for her? He'd be a fool to feel sorry for her.

She's so ruthless to herself, he won't feel sorry for her.

But why does seeing how thin she is make him feel like a cat is scratching at his heart?

At this moment, Yun Suiwan slowly opened her eyes.

He had intended to let her sleep a little longer, but to his surprise, she didn't sleep very soundly.

Seeing that she was leaning against him, Yun Suiwan didn't react much. She calmly sat up slowly and moved her position to keep her distance from him.

She looked straight ahead and said, "Lu Dongjue, why bother with all this?"

That movement of hers just now was fucking irritating.

Yun Suiwan is truly capable. Sometimes she doesn't even need to say much; just one action is enough to make him so angry he has a heart attack.

Does she really like Huo Beichen that much?

“Lu Dongjue, I really don’t understand what you’re thinking. We’ve already broken up peacefully, isn’t it better for us to go our separate ways?” Yun Suiwan finally looked at him.

“No,” Lu Dongjue replied, “It would be so pointless to separate before I’ve even had a chance to torment you.”

He spoke in a way that suggested he was a complete idiot.

Sure enough, he was unwilling to accept it.

"Ha, it's just love between a man and a woman, and our relationship isn't protected by law. So, does that mean I can only be with you for the rest of my life?"

Damn, what a scene of male-female love!

Has she forgotten how she used to cling to herself, wanting more?

Were all those sweet nothings she said just made up on the spot?

Seeing Yun Suiwan's disdainful and contemptuous expression, Lu Dongjue instantly became angry.

"Lu Dongjue, you're so naive. You don't really think it will last forever, do you? I... sob..."

If you listen any longer, he'll kill you.

Lu Dongjue grabbed her chin with his large hand and kissed her directly. Stop talking nonsense; he didn't want to hear anything right now.

"Waaah..." Yun Suiwan didn't expect Lu Dongjue to be so boring. When he couldn't argue with her, he started to get violent.

She slapped him hard, but after a short while, she ran out of strength.

She is so weak now that she has to hold her breath even when arguing with him.

Yun Suiwan's body gradually couldn't take it anymore, and her body couldn't stop sliding down.

Lu Dongjue pulled her into a tight embrace.

Yun Suiwan leaned against him, panting heavily. Lu Dongjue was trying to kill her.

"Open...the car door, I can't breathe..."

She felt extremely uncomfortable in the confined space of the train carriage.

Upon hearing this, Lu Dongjue didn't hesitate and quickly opened the car door.

Yun Suiwan took deep breaths.

Seeing her like this, Lu Dongjue felt very uncomfortable.

He picked her up and carried her out of the car.

"Lu Dongjue, if you want me to die quickly, then go ahead and torment me."

Yun Suiwan said weakly.

"Don't worry, I'll torture you to death slowly!" Lu Dongjue gritted his teeth and carried her into the house.

After entering the house, he asked someone to fetch a doctor.

The current situation of Yun Suiwan is not something that can be improved simply by resting.

Lu Dongjue carried Yun Suiwan to the guest room, his room, a room she didn't deserve to stay in.

After placing her on the bed, Yun Suiwan frowned, her face showing obvious discomfort.

Lu Dongjue pulled the blanket over her, opened his mouth as if to say something but didn't.

He gave her a deep look, then strode out of the room.

After I came out, Uncle Zhong was just going upstairs.

"Young Master."

Upon seeing Uncle Zhong, Lu Dongjue was taken aback. How did the old man know about this?

"Uncle Zhong, the old man..."

“Young Master, Master just hopes that you can handle your relationship with Miss Yun properly, after all, the Lu and Yun families are old friends.”

Grandpa Lu has come to terms with it; whether the two of them can be together is not up to him.

Lu Dongjue and Yun Suiwan are both individualistic people; he can't control them, and he doesn't want to anymore.

"Yes, I know."

"How is Miss Yun now?" Uncle Zhong asked again.

“She’s very weak.” Lu Dongjue paused. “Don’t tell Grandpa. I’ll take good care of her during this time.”

"Okay, sure."

Uncle Zhong came here to convey Old Master Lu's words, and then he left.

Lu Dongjue stood outside for a while, but he was still worried, so he returned to the guest room.

At this moment, Yun Suiwan had already fallen into a deep sleep.

He bent down and reached out to feel her forehead. Thankfully, she didn't have a fever.

He placed his hand on her forehead and didn't want to move it away.

Even though she's so fragile, she still has that sharp tongue and never loses an argument.

Lu Dongjue gently stroked her cheek with his large hand.

Looking at her sleeping face, he smiled helplessly and muttered to himself, "Yun Suiwan, you're the only one who dares to bully me like this."

When it came to Yun Suiwan, Lu Dongjue's harshest words were just a couple of harsh remarks.

He didn't dare to use too much force when he kissed her just now.

He sighed again, and then he began to take off his clothes.
