He is the decisive business emperor, and she is a charming, soft, and adorable student. Due to a mistaken blind date, he and she became the closest people on the household register.
From then...
Worried that Xu Haicheng might say something inappropriate that could damage their already fragile marital relationship, Xu Tingchuan opened the door and went inside, saying, "Dad, come out with me for a moment."
Xu Haicheng glanced at Jin Rulan, who was looking out the window with her face as cold as ice.
He got up and followed Xu Tingchuan out, while Ni Sitian stayed in the ward to keep Jin Rulan company.
The father and son walked to the window of the corridor. Xu Tingchuan told Xu Haicheng his analysis, and then said, "Dad, you were too upset and didn't think it through. Now think carefully, is Mom that kind of person? If you had said those things, it would have shown that you don't understand her and don't trust her."
Xu Haicheng's expression changed drastically, and he said in a deep voice, "You mean someone tricked your mother into taking those drugs?"
Xu Tingchuan thought he didn't need to say anything more. His father was such a smart man that he hadn't figured it out just now because he was too shocked. He would just need to give him a few pointers and he would understand everything.
“Your mother has been taking folic acid tablets recently; that’s the only thing that can get her to take the medicine orally.” Xu Haicheng’s expression was solemn, and the suppressed anger in his eyes was about to burst out. He took out his phone and called Butler Wang.
The servants in their household are all strictly screened, and their ancestors for three generations are thoroughly investigated to find out how such people managed to get in.
Xu Tingchuan was also thinking about this issue. Even if they had managed to sneak in and were going to harm the Xu family, why would they specifically target Jin Rulan to induce an abortion? That wouldn't be worthwhile.
Unless they came specifically to seek revenge on Jin Rulan, but what enemies could Jin Rulan possibly have? She is devoted to scientific research and rarely interacts with outsiders; she never attends the banquets of celebrities and socialites.
“We haven’t hired any new servants recently; they’ve all worked for the Xu family for more than three years.” Xu Haicheng hung up the phone, his face even more somber, and said to Xu Tingchuan, “Go back and handle this matter first.”
"Okay." Xu Tingchuan nodded, paused, and then said, "Dad, Mom must be feeling bad too."
"I understand, I know what to do." Xu Haicheng turned around and walked towards the ward.
Xu Jiayue had just returned with some daily necessities, and Xu Haicheng took them from her and then gestured for her not to go inside.
After Xu Haicheng entered the ward, Ni Sitian came out.
Xu Tingchuan walked over and said to Xu Jiayue, "Jiayue, could you take your sister-in-law back for me first? I need to go to the mansion. Dad is enough for Mom here."
"What happened?" Xu Jiayue asked, completely bewildered, looking at Xu Tingchuan's serious expression with concern.
Ni Sitian was equally confused, so she looked at Xu Tingchuan and asked, "What are you going to the mansion for now?"
"I'll tell you when I get back tonight." Xu Tingchuan patted Ni Sitian's head, handed her over to Xu Jiayue, and turned to leave quickly.
Ni Sitian and Xu Jiayue looked at each other for a while, then glanced at the glass on the ward door and saw that Xu Haicheng was talking to Jin Rulan inside. Not wanting to disturb them, they left the hospital.
Xu Jiayue was driving, and Ni Sitian was sitting in the passenger seat.
Jin Rulan had just lost her child, so Xu Jiayue was driving with extra caution, keeping her eyes straight ahead.
Sitting in the car, Ni Sitian suddenly understood why Xu Tingchuan had gone to the mansion; she feared that Jin Rulan's miscarriage was not as simple as it seemed.
Xu Jiayue escorted Ni Sitian into the house, originally intending to return to the hospital immediately.
“Give Dad a chance to have a good talk with Mom,” Ni Sitian said, pulling Xu Jiayue aside. “They’ve both lost a child; is there a better time for them to connect and open their hearts to each other than now?”
Xu Jiayue understood Ni Sitian's meaning, so she simply stayed with her and went into the kitchen to pour two glasses of warm water without any formalities, handing one to Ni Sitian.
"Are you going to the baby's one-month celebration the day after tomorrow?" Ni Sitian asked, holding a water glass and looking at her.
"I'm not going. I'll take care of Mom." Xu Jiayue shook her head.
"Is it to take care of Mom, or are you afraid of running into Pei Yang?" Ni Sitian asked astutely.
Xu Jiayue looked at Ni Sitian with some surprise and as if to say, "How did you know?"
