Balu was worried all the way. Although his wife had a relatively easy pregnancy this time and didn't have any major morning sickness, she had fainted from a fright not long ago and also had a fever. He was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold on and something might happen to her.
Fortunately, the baby in her belly was well-behaved, and Nanxi did not show any discomfort symptoms along the way. She arrived in Daqili safely.
The person who came to pick them up was a man named Zawan. Nanxi had some impression of him. This man owed money to their family before and had some bad intentions. However, he was convinced by Balu. Not only did he pay back the money and apologize, he also recognized Balu as his boss.

Zawan didn't even dare to look at Nanxi's face. He just nodded repeatedly, "Of course, of course. This way, please."
