"You probably don't remember me." Su Zhifei smiled awkwardly, seeing that she didn't seem to recall him. "Thank you for helping my brother with the surgery. Are you planning to go home? Let me take you back!"
"No need, I have someone to pick me up." Lin Zhaoyue directly refused Su Zhifei's offer.
She really didn't have any impression of Su Zhifei.
Could this guy actually like our little girl?
She's beautiful and intelligent; not only men, but even I, a woman, like her.
[Same here +1. Every man in the world wants to marry a wife who is both elegant and capable in the kitchen.]
Su Zhifei is capable, but he's a scumbag; he keeps his wife at home while having affairs on the side.
[Su Zhifei's illegitimate child still needs Mu Jingwan to 'give birth' to him; it's disgusting to be liked by someone like that.]
[...]
Upon seeing the comments, Lin Zhaoyue almost instinctively took two steps back, maintaining a safe distance from Su Zhifei.
No way? They've only met a few times, how could Su Zhifei possibly like her?
Su Zhifei noticed Lin Zhaoyue's subtle movements, his eyes darkened, but he said nothing and followed her out of the hospital.
At the hospital entrance,
Jiang Jingzhou, who was leaning against the car, saw Lin Zhaoyue coming from afar and hurriedly opened the passenger door.
"Looks like I won't have a chance to show off."
Su Zhifei spoke in a half-joking tone, his eyes sizing up Jiang Jingzhou.
He belonged to a different social class from the Jiang family and had never had any contact with them before.
Jiang Jingzhou's thin lips curled slightly, "My wife, of course only I can receive her."
Lin Zhaoyue sensed the man's subtle jealousy, stepped forward and took his arm, explaining intentionally or unintentionally, "He is a family member of my patient. He just had surgery today and wanted to express his gratitude."
After saying that, Lin Zhaoyue turned to Su Zhifei and said, "It is my duty to treat patients and save lives. Besides, my teacher was the surgeon who performed your brother's surgery. If you want to thank someone, you can go and thank my teacher directly."
Su Zhifei watched them drive away, then stood there for a long time, seemingly lost in thought. Interesting.
...
"Didn't we agree that I wouldn't work overtime while pregnant?" Jiang Jingzhou asked in a low voice, worried that Lin Zhaoyue would have a hard time.
"Yes, so the teacher gave me the day off tomorrow so I can rest at home."
Lin Zhaoyue smiled and said, "Due to the special circumstances today, I will try my best not to have to work overtime."
"Okay." She should get some rest tomorrow; Jiang Jingzhou noticed she'd been too busy lately.
"You should stay away from that person from now on."
After a long while, Jiang Jingzhou suddenly spoke up to remind him.
Lin Zhaoyue didn't deny anything, and nodded seriously, "I understand."
Jiang Jingzhou was slightly taken aback. "Why don't you ask me why?"
"Don't ask why, I just don't like spending time with him in private; it feels weird."
Lin Zhaoyue doesn't need Jiang Jingzhou to tell her; she will keep her distance from him on her own.
"..." Jiang Jingzhou's eyes darkened slightly. It seemed that what this person said in private, not to his face, was even more outrageous.
Otherwise, Zhaoyue wouldn't be so resistant.
——
The Su family.
Mu Jingwan had no idea how many days she had been detained. Her food and drink were delivered by a special person. She didn't know how business was going at the factory, and she couldn't even contact her family.
"Knock knock".
A dull knock sounded at the door. Mu Jingwan looked over and saw it was the aunt who brought lunch.
Without saying a word, she cleared away the dishes Mu Jingwan had finished eating that morning and brought her lunch.
"Did Zhixiang go for surgery?" Mu Jingwan asked in a hoarse voice.
The aunt remained silent, as if she hadn't heard what Mu Jingwan said.
Mu Jingwan repeated, "I'm asking you a question! Did he go to the hospital for surgery? As his wife, don't I even have the right to know this?"
"..." Mu Jingwan spoke as if she were mute. She rushed over and grabbed her aunt's arm, "How long are they going to keep me locked up? I want to get out!"
"We can't get out!"
The aunt finally spoke, saying with great difficulty, "Even if you run out of the house, there are bodyguards watching outside. Just stay here obediently. They can't keep you locked up forever. Once the child is born, they'll let you out eventually."
Mu Jingwan froze instantly. She'd gone mad!
Her mother-in-law is really crazy!
They even arranged for bodyguards to keep an eye on her.
"Young Master did indeed have surgery at the hospital. The surgery was successful, and he is currently in the recovery phase. Madam might just let you go if she's in a good mood," the aunt continued.
"What I said is Madam's idea. Please don't make things difficult for me anymore. I'm just an employee."
After saying that, the aunt turned to leave, but Mu Jingwan grabbed her hand and wouldn't let go, "What about my factory!"
"The Su family doesn't care about your Mu family's business at all; of course, it's your father who's in charge."
Mu Jingwan: "..." The Su family certainly didn't care about this little bit of money, but her father did!
She went through tremendous effort to finally get the factory under her control, but now it's all going to her dad.
If her father could just settle down and live a peaceful life with her mother, that would be fine. But instead, all the money he earns goes to his illegitimate children.
Mu Jingwan took a deep breath, kicked over her lunch, and made a mess of the house. She threw away what she could and kicked what she couldn't throw! She vented her emotions.
The sound of clanging and banging came from the room upstairs. The bodyguard downstairs made a move to go up and check, but was stopped by the aunt.
"She's not going to run out of that room anyway, what are you doing going in? Are you just waiting to get yelled at?"
"..." Mu Jingwan is now reaping what she sowed. She's already being kind enough that Su's mother is still willing to keep her around after all the things she did!
...
During her pregnancy, Lin Zhaoyue did not feel tired at all; on the contrary, she felt energetic, which was completely different from her first pregnancy.
Lin Zhaoyue took her two children back to her parents' home. Lin Erwu saw that she was in good spirits, but he was still worried about his daughter's pregnancy. "You already have two children, a son and a daughter, why would you want to have another one? Is this your own idea? Or your in-laws' idea?"
Lin Erwu was worried that Zhaoyue's parents-in-law were pressuring her to give birth.
He wanted his daughter to have absolute say in her husband's family!
"Of course it was an accident." Lin Zhaoyue chuckled. "Dad, you're one to talk! Aunt Qian is so old, how could she get pregnant? You have children of your own!"
“Your situations are different. I have no intention of letting her have the baby. She has been feeling unwell since she got pregnant, and last month she stayed in the hospital for almost half a month before being discharged. The doctor did not recommend that she keep the baby, but she insisted on doing so.”
Lin Erwu sighed helplessly as he said this, "I can't persuade her now, let alone since she's already in the second trimester. It's no use saying anything."
"It's normal for Aunt Qian to want a child of her own."
"I'd be relieved if she was in as good a condition as you are, but you haven't seen her yet."
