It was still dark outside, before dawn.
Shortly after Liang Man lay down, Mrs. Liang left the hospital by car.
There was no other reason than that her husband was unaware that their daughter had been harassed at the bar.
He was a man who favored sons over daughters, and over the years she and her daughter had suffered a lot of cold treatment in the Liang family. This time, when Liang Man had an unexpected miscarriage, Madam Liang did not want Mr. Liang to know about it.
But she had just left.
Shortly after, someone pushed open the door to the ward and went inside.
The dim light enveloped the surroundings, and the woman's shallow breathing could be heard.
The man stepped forward and stood in front of the hospital bed.
At this moment, a long, black shadow fell on the blanket under his eyelids. Mu Xing looked at the woman who had already fallen asleep and sneered.
Is this the woman?
Pshaw, it's nothing special.
A breeze blew into the ward.
The man turned his head slightly to look over, then suddenly narrowed his eyes, and the window that had been open immediately closed.
Soon, the shadow disappeared.
Liang Man's eyelids twitched.
She opened her eyes and looked around the ward.
She was all alone here.
It was just a dream.
She thought Mu Chen had arrived.
Thinking of him, Liang Man suddenly felt a little guilty.
What if, what if something really happens to him, then...

The next day, early morning.
"Second sister-in-law, second sister-in-law."
As soon as Rong Shang came downstairs, she heard Mu Lian's cheerful voice. She originally wanted to take a detour and ignore her, but who knew that Mu Lian would run towards her with big strides and hand her a cup of still-warm soy milk.
"Second sister-in-law, have a cup of soy milk, I just went out to buy it."
"No need, I'll have porridge."
"Oh, there's also millet porridge, and your favorite shrimp dumplings too," Mu Lian chattered on in front of her.
Rong Shang glanced at her, her gaze mocking, "What, aren't you afraid I'll push you into the water again?"
After what happened last night, is she still not awake?
Mu Lian paused for a moment, seemingly having thought of it as well.
But this time she wasn't angry. She scratched her head and said with a silly grin, "Second sister-in-law was just joking with me. I'm not afraid at all."
People like Liang Man are the ones who truly want her dead.
Even though Shen Qinghuan was pushed into the water and almost drowned, she was still a victim of such behavior.
But weren't it Shen Qinghuan and her second brother who saved her at the crucial moment?
It was through this transformation that Rong Shang discovered she was still entangled with this silly girl.
All day long, he's either buying her soy milk and fried dough sticks, or some snacks and treats.
Not only that, she had to follow her to meals, to watch TV, and even to the bathroom...
Sometimes, when Rong Shang got impatient with being followed, she would turn around, clench her fists, and pretend to punch her.
To her surprise, the other person chuckled and asked, "Second sister-in-law, are you an alien?"
"Can you tell me what superpowers you have?"
"Teleportation, time stop, healing spells?"
Mu Lian rattled off a whole bunch of things, looking extremely gossipy.
Rong Shang remained indifferent and did not answer any of the questions.
When Mu Chen returned from the company that evening, Rong Shang had just experienced the embarrassing situation of being followed while eating and then being followed while taking a shower.
Upon seeing this, the man's face immediately darkened.
Without saying a word, he walked over and pulled Rong Shang into his arms.
Before Mu Lian could say anything more, he simply said, "Go away!"
For a moment, Mu Lian was stunned by the shout.
Mu Chen led her upstairs.
Mu Lian, "..."
What? Is this my second brother?
Why is she getting more and more aggressive?
That's strange!
