Having a baby?
Jiang Yilai's heart skipped a beat.
She never intended to do that.
He subconsciously looked at Fu Nanxiao, whose face was gloomy and seemed to be very disgusted by these words.
Jiang Yilai made up her mind.
Putting aside whether Fu Nanxiao would accept her as his cheap wife, even if she were willing to give birth, he is currently lying in bed unable to move, so she can't just force herself on him, can she?
Jiang Yilai smiled, then lowered her head and remained silent.
Grandma Fu thought she was just shy, and she couldn't stop smiling.
An hour later.
The bedroom was bustling with activity, as every member of the Fu family came to visit Fu Nanxiao with beaming smiles.
With so many people around, Jiang Yilai was gradually pushed onto the balcony.
She looked at the scenery in the distance and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fu Nanxiao lay in bed for a whole year, and everyone thought he would never wake up. Many people in the Fu family were restless and had long been plotting to seize his property.
He is expected to recover soon. Although those who visit him wear smiles on their faces, they may not know how much hatred they feel inside.
Seeing their hypocrisy is exhausting.
"Lai Lai!"
The balcony door was closed, and Jiang Yilai turned around to see Fu Junhao's face, which was feigning deep affection.
She felt nauseous and turned to leave.
Fu Junhao quickly stopped her: "Lai Lai, let me explain!"
Jiang Yilai took a step back and looked at him coldly: "We've already broken up."
Fu Junhao looked heartbroken: "I didn't agree to your breakup, Lai Lai. The only person I love is you."
"Fu Junhao, are you out of your mind?"
Jiang Yilai asked incredulously, "Are you lusting after your cousin's wife right now?"
The words "cousin's wife" made Fu Junhao's face stiffen.
He forced a smile: "Lai Lai, I know I was wrong. It was Le Zhen who confessed to me, and I saw her crying pitifully, so I acted impulsively..."
A moment of confusion?
Jiang Yilai sneered.
They were assuming she didn't know much and were treating her like a fool.
It was clear that Fu Junhao and Jiang Lezhen had been secretly colluding with each other, plotting to trick her into marrying into the Fu family, helping Fu Junhao seize power, and then taking the inheritance from her after Fu Nanxiao died.
In this way, the Fu family will fall into Fu Junhao's hands, and he and Jiang Lezhen will be able to finally be together!
That's a brilliant plan!
Despite feeling extremely disgusted, Jiang Yilai's lips curled up slightly, and she said softly, "No, it's a good thing we broke up. After marrying Fu Nanxiao, I realized that he was so handsome, so capable, and so manly."
“Now that he’s awake, I believe he will soon regain control of the Fu family business. If I follow him, I can enjoy wealth and luxury for the rest of my life, and I’ll be treated with respect wherever I go.”
Fu Junhao stared in disbelief, his face turning from blue to purple, then from purple to red, as if he had swallowed a thousand flies.
But he quickly composed himself and said with a wry smile, "Lai Lai, I know you're just saying that out of anger. You're not like that. My brother has woken up, but I heard from the doctor that his leg was injured in the car accident and he might never be able to stand up again. Do you really want to spend your life with a cripple?"
Fu Nanxiao can't stand up?
Jiang Yilai was startled.
She was unaware of this.
Fu Junhao noticed her astonishment and seemed encouraged. He leaned closer to her and coaxed softly, "Lai Lai, if you can help me inherit the Fu family business, then when you divorce my brother, I'll send him abroad. That way, we can be together forever!"
Jiang Yilai raised an eyebrow: "How do you want me to help you?"
Fu Junhao was overjoyed: "Grandma said that if you give birth to my brother's child, a portion of my brother's shares can be transferred to the child—of course, if something happens to my brother, the inheritance will all go to you and the child."
His words carried a strong implication.
Jiang Yilai looked at him as if he were mentally challenged.
Even in a wheelchair, Fu Nanxiao, a man of such shrewdness, is a million times better than Fu Junhao. With him around, Fu Junhao will never amount to anything.
Even if it's true, as he said, that she'll have money, a child, and no man by then, why would she pick up a cheating man like him and make herself miserable?
"Fu Junhao, are you out of your mind?"
Jiang Yilai looked him up and down, her eyes filled with a hint of disdain: "There is no harm without comparison. You are both descendants of the Fu family, but you are far inferior to Nan Xiao. He can become the president of Fu Corporation even in a wheelchair, while you are still scheming and trying to climb the social ladder by relying on women. I was really blind to have been with you back then."
"..."
Fu Junhao looked as if he had been slapped in the face, his expression extremely unpleasant.
He stared at her, his eyes wide with disbelief, the mask of affection finally shattered.
Jiang Yilai scoffed, "Don't bother me again. I'm your cousin-in-law now. It wouldn't be good if others saw you harassing me."
"Besides, it would be quite embarrassing for others to know that I've associated with someone like you."
After saying that, Jiang Yilai casually cast a disdainful glance at him, pushed aside the petrified Fu Junhao, and left.
...
After the Fu family left, the doctor came to examine Fu Nanxiao again.
Grandma Fu stood beside her with concern, holding Jiang Yilai's hand.
When the doctor examined her leg, Mrs. Fu suddenly clenched her hands, and Jiang Yilai's hands were squeezed so tightly that they hurt.
Thinking of Fu Junhao's words, she sighed inwardly, realizing that Fu Nanxiao's leg might really be in trouble.
After the examination, the doctor stood up and said, "Mr. Fu's physical condition is good. He just needs to follow the rehabilitation training plan. However, he has been bedridden for too long. If you want to restore his physical functions as soon as possible, you can give Mr. Fu more massages."
"Okay, okay!" Grandma Fu's eyes welled up with tears. "I'll have someone find a caregiver right now."
Jiang Yilai hesitated for a moment: "Grandma, I can do the massage."
Grandma Fu looked at her in surprise: "You can?"
“I’ve learned it before.” Jiang Yilai didn’t say much, just smiled: “But I haven’t done it in a long time. Why don’t I do it once and let the doctor see if it’s okay?”
“Okay,” Grandma Fu readily agreed.
If she could give him a massage, that would be perfect. Her eldest grandson hates being touched by others. If it were Jiang Yilai, it would actually improve the relationship between husband and wife.
Besides, no caregiver can be as considerate as your own wife.
Fu Nanxiao's sharp and impatient gaze fell on Jiang Yilai's face. He frowned, his face gloomy, clearly unwilling.
But he couldn't speak, so Jiang Yilai pretended not to see him.
She bent down and began to massage him carefully.
Half an hour later, Jiang Yilai stood up, covered in sweat.
The doctor nodded: "Mrs. Fu did a good job, very professional."
Grandma Fu immediately decided to assign the task to Jiang Yilai.
night.
After Jiang Yilai finished washing up, she came out of the bathroom and saw Fu Nanxiao lying on the bed, gritting his teeth and trying to raise his hand.
He used so much force that veins bulged on his forehead and neck, making him look extremely ferocious.
After a while, he was covered in sweat, panting heavily, his eyes filled with anger and frustration.
Jiang Yilai watched, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe.
