"sorry."
Baba told her to stay true to her persona and not to give herself away.
Neither Ning Mochen nor Old Master Ning are easily fooled.
One wrong move and you're ruined.
Chu Yuan didn't want to end up like the dance instructor!
Unlike her, the original owner was a complete soft girl. She was supposed to be a surrogate mother for the Ning family for money, but the more she learned about Ning Mochen, the more she slowly developed feelings for her employer.
Especially after her third successful pregnancy, reaching six months, and with more time spent with Ning Mochen, her secret crush on him grew rapidly.
From having ulterior motives at the beginning to willingly having his children.
Even if the child has absolutely no relation to her.
Finally, after losing her third child, she felt guilty and remorseful, neglected her health, and died from complications of the miscarriage...
How can one fool be anything?
As Chu Yuan lamented the original owner's foolishness, Zhou Manyun's voice above her was as cold as ice, "Miss Chu, your tears can't move me, a woman as well!"
Our Ning family spent so much money to bring your grandmother to the hospital, prolong her life, and give you a legally recognized identity. What about you?
You can afford to wait, but the Ning family can't. We're giving you one last chance.
If it doesn't work out, you and your grandma should just leave!
Ning's mother looked critical, thinking that if she and Mo Chen hadn't already registered their marriage, there would have been no need to wait for this third time!
There are so many women in the world who can have children—good-looking, well-educated, and of excellent character. With the Ning family's wealth and influence in Beicheng, they could find plenty!
There's really no need to waste time on a useless idiot.
"...I understand." Chu Yuan lowered her head, her fingers gripping the bed sheet until they turned white, but she was inwardly complaining.
Why give her one last chance? Shouldn't we check whether Ning Muwan or Ning Mochen's genes are defective?
Or perhaps both partners have genetic defects that make them unsuitable for having children?
Why take it out on a recipient who has absolutely no connection to you?
Zhou Manyun felt angry when she saw Chu Yuan's pale face and weak appearance. She regretted that she had only focused on Chu Yuan's good looks, temperament, and family background and had made a hasty decision to marry her.
As our ancestors said, there is some truth to the saying that thin women are not suitable for childbearing.
Thinking of this, Zhou Manyun disliked Chu Yuan even more. She left with the words, "Take good care of yourself and don't forget your place," and then haughtily slung her small bag over her shoulder and left.
Ning Mochen turned around and saw Zhou Manyun out.
Just when Chu Yuan thought he would never come back, the door was pushed open again.
Ning Mochen stood five meters away, his deep gaze behind his glasses glancing at her. "Miss Chu, none of us wanted this accident to happen. If you have any needs, you can let me know."
Ning Mochen treated his surrogate wife no differently than a stranger.
It wasn't out of pity for her, nor out of concern for her; I was just asking out of politeness.
After all, she did contribute to the Ning family. Even if both sides converted those contributions into money, she would still be the one who suffered a loss.
The Ning family is not short of money.
She appeared to be in poor health and on the verge of death...
Chu Yuan had been in pain all night due to her miscarriage, and her eyes, which hadn't slept well, were like a rabbit's. When she heard Ning Mochen's words, she was stunned for a moment.
Ning Mochen raised his hand and adjusted the emerald-embellished button on his shirt. "Since Miss Chu doesn't need it—"
Chu Yuan sat up slightly and interrupted softly, "No, Mr. Ning, I need it very much."
"Could you... help me to the toilet?"
She's about to suffocate!
My lower abdomen was still cramping, and my whole body felt weak and powerless.
Since Ning Mochen has asked, why be so polite?
Ning Mochen clearly hadn't expected her to be so "open-minded".
For a moment, I didn't know whether to agree or refuse.
Chu Yuan had already raised her delicate, boneless hand. "Mr. Ning, is my request too much?"
The ward has a private bathroom, just a few steps away.
When Zhou Manyun arrived, she gave the nurses a thorough dressing-down, blaming them for not taking good care of her and for notifying her too late... In short, it was all someone else's fault.
Now, none of the nurses are coming this way; they've all used the excuse of checking on other patients to go to other wards.
Ning Mochen stepped back into the corridor and looked around. Unable to find anyone, he hesitated for a moment before walking over and supporting Chu Yuan's arm.
Without making a sound, he gently pulled down her sleeve, which was rolled up quite high.
They appear polite and courteous through clothing, but are they actually showing disdain?
Chu Yuan was indeed in a hurry, so she didn't care about anything else and rushed to the bathroom in her slippers, her feet sinking deep into the water.
Ning Mochen released her hand at the opportune moment, his expression cold and indifferent: "Slow down."
How could Chu Yuan be slow? She was holding her breath so hard that her beautiful features were contorted in pain. After the bathroom door closed, it seemed to hit something and fell to the ground with a clatter.
Ning Mochen's ink-wash-like eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if out of control.
So impulsive?
It's disturbing.
In everything we do, we should plan ahead and take precautions to prevent problems before they arise.
Impulsiveness disrupts a calm state of mind and optimal performance.
Just then, the sound of running water came from the bathroom. Realizing what it was, Ning Mochen felt a little strange and turned around awkwardly.
Without realizing it, I pushed up my thin-rimmed metal glasses on the bridge of my nose.
He walked out of the ward until he could no longer hear the sound...
So when Chu Yuan came out feeling relaxed, she didn't see him in the first room.
They're leaving already? She felt frustrated.
Didn't they even say hello?
Is this how the president comes and goes like the wind?
"Miss Chu." A man's magnetic voice sounded behind her, startling Chu Yuan.
