"Wanwan, what's wrong?" Zhan Jingting was startled awake and hurriedly got up to ask, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Qiao Wanwan gasped for breath, slowly turned her head, and when she saw Zhan Jingting's incomparably handsome face, she trembled violently!
"Wanwan, what's wrong?" Zhan Jingting raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead. "What did you dream about that scared you like this?"
Qiao Wanwan swallowed hard, her voice hoarse, "It's nothing..."
Zhan Jingting poured her a glass of warm water, saying, "Have some water to calm down."
Qiao Wanwan held the water glass and took a small sip.
"Wanwan, are you worried about our other child?" Zhan Jingting looked at her with heartache. "I told you, this can't be rushed."
"I know." Qiao Wanwan suppressed her chaotic thoughts, put down her water glass, and said, "Go to sleep."
"You go to sleep first, I'll stay here with you."
Qiao Wanwan closed her eyes, but found it difficult to fall asleep.
But she didn't open her eyes; she just pretended to be asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Qiao Wanwan heard a faint sound; Zhan Jingting had lain down again.
She slowly opened her eyes; the lights were off, and the room was dark.
Qiao Wanwan turned around, her back to the sleeping man, curled up in a ball, having not slept all night...
......
The next morning, Zhan Jingting woke up first and subconsciously looked at the girl beside him.
She had her eyes closed, her brows furrowed, and her face flushed.
Zhan Jingting frowned and hurriedly reached out to touch her face; it was indeed burning hot!
"Wanwan, Wanwan?" Zhan Jingting tried calling her name. Qiao Wanwan seemed to wake up, her brows furrowing even more, but she still didn't open her eyes!
Zhan Jingting hurriedly pressed the call button by the bedside, "Wanwan has a fever, call the doctor!"
By the time he finished dressing, the doctor had arrived, followed closely by the legendary healer, "What's wrong with Wanwan?"
"She has a fever, take a look."
The legendary doctor with the "ghost hands" stepped forward to check Qiao Wanwan's temperature and pulse. "Her fever is quite high; we need to give her medicine quickly."
"good."
After administering the medicine to Qiao Wanwan, the legendary healer continued, "Wanwan's pulse is weak and feeble. Has something happened?"
"She had a nightmare last night and is very disturbed."
The miracle doctor nodded. "It's not a big problem. I'll give her some calming medicine after her fever goes down."
"good."
Zhan Jingting stayed in the room the whole time, and didn't even go down to eat breakfast.
"Knock knock knock".
There was a sudden knock on the door. The door wasn't closed, and Ruan Tang walked in directly. "Brother Jingting, I brought you some food."
"I'm not hungry."
Ruan Tang placed the tray on the coffee table. "How can you take care of your sister-in-law on an empty stomach? This is a medicinal porridge that I cooked myself. It's nutritious and healthy. Try it first. If you can swallow it, let your sister-in-law have a bowl when she wakes up."
Zhan Jingting didn't say anything.
Ruan Tang shook her head helplessly, ladled out a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of her, "If you don't eat, I'll have my aunt come."
Zhan Jingting felt a headache coming on just thinking about Ruan Wanyi's nagging, so he could only accept the food and eat it.
Ruan Tang laughed out loud, "I knew you liked quiet and hated your aunt's nagging!"
"You think you're so smart."
“Of course.” Ruan Tang sat down beside her. “I remember when you were little, you weren’t close to your aunt, and she was worried about you, so she could only send me as an undercover agent to take care of you. In the blink of an eye, we’ve all grown up, and you’ve even gotten married and had children. Jing Ting, I’m so happy for you.”
"After all, at one point, I felt it was impossible for you to get married, let alone have children..."
"This was an accident." Zhan Jingting looked at the girl who was sleeping on the bed. "I never thought I would get married and have children."
"It's good that you have someone by your side, and your sister-in-law is the successor of the Ghost Hand Doctor, so she's the most suitable person to be Mrs. Zhan."
Zhan Jingting took a sip of porridge. "She didn't become Mrs. Zhan because of that."
"Why is that?"
The man remained tight-lipped, saying, "You wouldn't understand."
Seeing Zhan Jingting's expression, Ruan Tang wisely refrained from asking any further questions.
Qiao Wanwan clenched her fists tightly under the covers, a wave of sorrow washing over her...
......
In the evening, Ruan Wanyi took Ruan Tang to pick up Shiyi from school.
"Tangtang, let me tell you, Eleven is such a smart kid. The teacher said that with his current IQ, he could easily be in kindergarten. He's just as smart as Jingting was when he was little." Ruan Wanyi proudly boasted all the way.
“Auntie, my sister-in-law also deserves credit for this.” Ruan Tang said, linking arms with Ruan Wanyi. “If my sister-in-law weren’t so outstanding, Eleven wouldn’t be so smart. We should treat her even better.”
“I haven’t treated her badly,” Ruan Wanyi said. “Ever since she was willing to sacrifice herself to save Eleven, I’ve made up with her. Although she’s still stubborn and headstrong at times, which I can’t stand, I try my best to tolerate it. After all, harmony in the family is the foundation of everything.”
"Yes, there will always be some friction between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, but I think that my sister-in-law is the most understanding mother-in-law in the world. It is her good fortune to have a mother-in-law like you."
"You have such a sweet tongue!"
"......"
The two of them arrived at the kindergarten chatting and laughing, and went inside to pick up Eleven.
"Grandma." Eleven looked disappointed when she didn't see Qiao Wanwan. "Isn't Mommy ready yet?"
“Your mommy woke up at noon, but she was a little weak, so she didn’t come to pick you up. Look, Grandma and Aunt Tangtang came to pick you up themselves. Aren’t you happy?”
