Hua Chang was frightened and wanted to say something to persuade them, but she gave up in the face of the gossipy and teasing looks of her female colleagues.
She couldn't dig a hole for herself, having just debunked the rumor.
No matter how good Qi Mu's alcohol tolerance was, he couldn't resist their enthusiasm. After three rounds of drinks, he was unconscious.
Hua Shang didn't drink a drop of alcohol because she wanted to set an example for her children, so she had to take on the responsibility of sending Qi Mu home safely.
"Hua Shang, you must not betray our trust. Nothing can happen to either Mr. Qi or you."
"Yes! We want to see you all intact on weekdays."
The colleague, whose eyesight was not very clear, kept giving her instructions.
Hua Shang felt overwhelmed after hearing this. She responded with a few words and hurriedly left with Qi Mu and Bo Zining.
As soon as he drove away, the crowd started talking.
"Do you think they will..." someone laughed maliciously.
Someone punched him: "Don't believe in rumors, don't spread rumors, Hua Chang is still with the child!"
"We came here specifically to assist them. We hope they won't let our kindness go to waste."
The group of people laughed heartily without any malice.
Hua Chang wants to fool them? No way!
They don't believe that the high-ranking President Qi would help ordinary employees pick up their children.
They also don't think that the leader would condescend to drink with them.
Hua Chang walked for a while and suddenly braked and stopped by the roadside.
"What's wrong with Mom?" Bo Zining turned her head in confusion.
Hua Chang helplessly held her forehead and glanced at Qi Mu who was unconscious in the back seat: "I don't know the address of Mr. Qi's house."
"Then let's take the handsome uncle home first!"
The innocent tone offered very reasonable suggestions.
With no other choice, Hua Chang had to do as she was told.
After finally returning home, Hua Shang took care of Bo Zining and made sure she went to bed on time.
Before leaving, Bo Zining grabbed the corner of her clothes and said, "Mom, can you make some hangover soup for handsome uncle later? He seems to be feeling very uncomfortable."
Hua Chang was stunned.
Then, Bo Zining gave her a reason that she couldn't refuse.
"Handsome uncle helped Mom this afternoon. Didn't you teach me to be grateful?"
Qi Mu has helped her more than once or twice, and she has always wanted to repay him but couldn't find a chance. Isn't this the best opportunity?
Anyway, she was only taking care of Qi Mu out of gratitude, so she would have no regrets even if someone asked her about it in the future.
Thinking of this, Hua Shang readily agreed.
"Okay, Mommy will take good care of the pretty uncle. Just go to sleep, okay? Children who stay up late won't grow taller!"
Bo Zining believed it and quickly lay down and closed his eyes.
Hua Shang smiled and tucked the quilt for her, then turned and went to the kitchen.
She hadn't cooked hangover soup for a long time, but the recipe was still deeply imprinted in her mind.
In the first few years of his marriage to Bo Yunyan, the Bo family was not as big as it is today, and Bo Yunyan had to attend social events every few days, and he always got drunk.
At that time, Hua Chang took care of him tirelessly, cooking sobering soup, helping him change his clothes, and wiping his body.
His hard work and dedication ultimately resulted in him proposing to another woman with their son.
Hua Chang felt bitter in her heart and her hands kept moving.
"Don't be afraid, it's safe."
"The seaside is dangerous, don't go there alone..."
As he approached with the sobering soup, Qi Mu's mumbling came into his ears.
Hua Chang frowned and moved closer: "Qi Mu, what are you talking about?"
"The seaside is dangerous, don't go near it."
"I can't save you every time..."
It was intermittent, but Hua Chang heard it clearly.
I could barely hold the bowl in my hand.
Poster? Save people?
Qi Mu has saved someone at the beach before?
A bold idea sprouted in my mind.
"Could it be that the person who saved me at the beach that year was Qi Mu?"
On the other side, the hospital.
"bite--"
The red light above the operating room turned green, and Shen Changmin and Shen Changan stepped forward.
"Doctor, how is my sister?" Shen Changan couldn't hold back and asked first.
Mr. Shen also looked over.
The doctor took off his mask and replied, "Don't worry, family members, the patient's operation was successful, but he is still in a coma. He should rest well."
Shen Changmin nodded slightly and thanked him: "Can it be completely cured?"
The doctor shook his head and sighed: "It's difficult. Try to keep her from being stimulated as little as possible to prevent a recurrence."
Just at this moment, Shen Zhexing was pushed out of the operating room, and Shen Changan hurriedly followed her back to the ward to settle her.
Shen Changmin and Old Man Shen fell behind.
"Grandpa, it seems to be true. The doctor did not lie."
Mr. Shen nodded: "But the doctor said she can't be stimulated. I'm afraid this relapse is caused by us taking Shang Shang back."
He felt a little disappointed.
He could understand Chen Zhexing's thoughts, but he was powerless to do anything. He couldn't be like that confused brat Chen Changan, not compensating his own sister and hanging out with the fake one all day, right?
"What do you think?" Mr. Shen threw the question to Shen Changmin.
As the successor of the Shen family, if he can't even do such a small thing, then he has to reconsider.
Shen Changmin just smiled and said, "The doctor said I need to rest. The Shen and Qi families are getting married soon, and there's so much going on. How can I rest?"
"Why don't we send Zhexing back to the villa to recuperate?"
Mr. Shen didn't say anything. He stroked his beard thoughtfully.
It's considered as a default.
This is the only safest way now.
"Then I'll let my assistant arrange it now." Shen Changmin said.
"Yeah." Mr. Shen nodded.
He sat on the sofa and looked at Chen Zhexing who was still in a coma, his eyes dimmed.
I don’t know whether this so-called relapse of an old illness is man-made or a real illness.
Shen Changan still looked worried, staring at the pale woman on the hospital bed with distress.
“Zhe Xing, it’s my second brother who’s sorry for you. I should have spent more time with you.” Shen Changan’s tone was full of self-blame.
If he had spent more time with Shen Zhexing during this period, her old illness would not have relapsed and she would not have fallen into a coma.
He grew up with Shen Zhexing and knew that she was sensitive and delicate.
This time, she must have fallen ill because she realized that everyone in the family was focusing their attention on Hua Shang and felt that no one cared about her anymore.
Shen Changmin knew that Shen Changan had a good relationship with Shen Zhexing since childhood. He stepped forward, patted Shen Changan on the back, and comforted him: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you don't have to blame yourself too much."
Shen Changan adjusted his mood and turned to look at Shen Changmin and Mr. Shen.
"Grandpa, big brother, Shang Shang's engagement party is coming soon. You should go back and take care of the engagement party first. I will stay here to take care of Zhe Xing."
Shen Zhexing needs someone to take care of her now, and he doesn't want to leave her alone in the hospital.
Old Master Shen and Shen Changmin looked at each other without refuting.
"After Zhe Xing wakes up, I will ask my assistant to arrange for Zhe Xing to go to the villa to recuperate. You should go with her so that we can take care of her."
Before leaving, Shen Changmin gave some instructions.
Shen Changan held Shen Zhexing’s hand tightly and nodded, his voice still a little hoarse: “I know.”
