Grandma Fu felt like a failure, unable to persuade that stubborn old man, which led to these accidents.
Jiang Yilai understood her good intentions, but for her, resolving the hatred was impossible.
"It's enough that you love them, and I believe Nan Xiao will protect them well in the future."
The implication was that she refused to see the old man.
Grandma Fu completely understood her feelings; after all that had happened, how could she dare bring the child to him?
Grandma Fu just felt sorry for her.
"Thank you for your hard work, Grandma. I will never let this happen again. If that old man comes back from the brink of death and is still stubborn, I will go with him."
"Grandma, please don't say that. These things have nothing to do with you. Don't be impulsive. Take good care of yourself so you can spend more time with your child. You are our family, and it is thanks to you that I can be with Nanxiao."
Grandma Fu was moved to tears by her words.
"Lai Lai, it's a blessing for the Fu family that Nan Xiao has found you."
"I am lucky to have such a wonderful grandmother."
The warm conversation between the two improved Mrs. Fu's mood.
After exchanging pleasantries and hanging up the phone, Jiang Yilai took a deep breath, feeling a real headache coming on as she thought about her grudges with Old Master Fu.
Now the old lady is caught in the middle, putting her in a difficult position.
Besides, even if she hates the old man, he's seriously ill and bedridden now, so it's impossible for her to go against him at a time like this.
Jiang Yilai was still deep in thought when a gust of wind suddenly arose behind her, and before she could react, an arm tightly hugged her.
Her initial nervousness subsided instantly upon smelling the familiar scent, and her eyes involuntarily reddened.
She had been waiting for this person for far too long.
Fu Nanxiao leaned against her neck, neither of them speaking, quietly sensing each other's presence.
After a long while, Fu Nanxiao held her shoulders and turned her around. He leaned down and kissed her lips, using this method to express his longing for her.
Jiang Yilai reached out and cupped his face in her hands, crystal-clear tears streaming down her cheeks. She once again experienced the heart-wrenching yet blissful feeling of deeply loving someone.
Fu Nanxiao gently released her, his eyes filled with tenderness as he looked at her.
"Lai Lai, I'm sorry I came back too late."
Jiang Yilai shook her head, never intending to blame him, but only worried about his safety.
"How are your injuries?"
Fu Nanxiao opened his arms and laughed, "Don't worry, there's no problem. You can check it yourself."
He knew that Jiang Yilai was afraid of hurting him and dared not get close, so he had to prove it to her with his actions.
"Are you really alright?"
Jiang Yilai clearly remembered how many wounds he had.
Fu Nanxiao's heart tightened, and he pulled her into his arms, tightening his arms to feel her heartbeat.
It's only been a few days, but it feels like an eternity.
"Fool, a week has passed, and with the addition of the medicine, your body is recovering even faster."
Hearing this, Jiang Yilai quickly broke free from the embrace and frowned, saying, "You can't do something that harms your body; it's too dangerous."
Fu Nanxiao pulled her into his arms again and said gently, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, if I hadn't come back soon, you wouldn't have been able to handle it."
Thinking back to today's situation, Jiang Yilai was also terrified. Those employees were armed and came prepared. If Fu Nanxiao hadn't returned in time, they would have killed her.
Even so, I don't want you to hurt yourself as a result.
