He knew it was Xu Ru Yun causing trouble again, so he immediately took the high-speed train back. Before he even left the station, he received a call from Huo Ting Yun.
He went directly to the Shallow Water Bay villa.
"She has a slight fever... she soaked in seawater..."
"How could you be so careless? It's deep autumn now, very cold. You must be careful in everything." Xu Lin Chuan sighed and called his assistant. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
The assistant brought some traditional Chinese medicine.
Su Qi was pregnant now and couldn't use Western medicine, so she could only take traditional Chinese medicine to regulate her body.
"Just boil these into a decoction."
Xu Lin Chuan explained it carefully, and didn't say it a second time.
He knew Huo Ting Yun too well; there was no need to say it twice. An ordinary person might not remember, but Huo Ting Yun was no ordinary person. He would remember it clearly after hearing it once, and wouldn't even need him to say it next time.
After speaking, Xu Lin Chuan glanced upstairs. It was false to say he wasn't jealous.
But he was willing but unable.
He had no standing whatsoever.
"You come here every day now. You weren't this diligent before you divorced. Why are you getting nostalgic now...
Don't forget, the engagement date is fast approaching. You promised yourself, don't go back on your word."
Xu Lin Chuan reminded him at the end and then left the Shallow Water Bay villa.
Huo Ting Yun stood alone in the room for a while before heading to the kitchen.
He rarely cooked, but he could do simple operations.
Sister Wu often stewed soup, and there was a clay pot at home.
Su Qi was drowsy, her mind heavy, but because she was uncomfortable, she slept restlessly, not deeply, but also unable to wake up.
In this half-awake, half-asleep state, she kept tossing and turning, very uneasy.
The traditional Chinese medicine was boiled. Huo Ting Yun added some sugar, and after letting it cool to a lukewarm temperature, he poured it into a container.
Su Qi, in her daze, felt a baby bottle being placed into her mouth.
Her mouth was very dry, and she instinctively sucked.
She drank all the traditional Chinese medicine in the bottle in one go.
A mixture of sweetness and bitterness, an indescribable taste.
It didn't taste good.
When Huo Ting Yun tried to feed her a second time, she refused to open her mouth.
"Good girl."
He pried her mouth open with his fingers.
He directly shoved the bottle in.
Su Qi frowned and reached out to push it away.
Huo Ting Yun didn't let go, just poured it into her mouth.
Having no strength, Su Qi could only swallow.
After drinking three bottles of traditional Chinese medicine, Huo Ting Yun finally let go of Su Qi.
Su Qi let out a soft sigh, her stomach full of liquid, feeling a bit bloated.
She slept until the middle of the night and murmured, wanting to get up to go to the restroom.
The man beside her slept lightly. Hearing Su Qi's low murmur, he got up and directly picked her up.
Su Qi felt herself being placed on the toilet. In her daze, she lifted her eyelids.
Seeing Huo Ting Yun, Su Qi sobered up a little, "You go out... don't look."
Who does this? Watching her use the toilet.
"Pee."
Huo Ting Yun didn't move.
Su Qi was dejected. After a stalemate for a while, she couldn't hold it any longer and peed directly in front of Huo Ting Yun with a gushing sound.
It flowed out freely.
Her body felt much more comfortable.
Su Qi almost fell asleep on the toilet.
Huo Ting Yun took some tissues, wiped her clean, washed her hands, and then carried her back to bed.
As soon as she hit the pillow, Su Qi fell into a deep sleep.
Huo Ting Yun flushed the toilet and then returned to bed.
Su Qi felt a force pull her.
She was pulled into a warm embrace.
The man's embrace was very warm. Su Qi slept so soundly that she was sweating profusely and wanted to push him away.
Huo Ting Yun's arm was very heavy. Su Qi tried with all her might but couldn't push him away.
She gave up.
Su Qi woke up the next day when the sun was high in the sky.
She didn't know what she had drunk last night, but she felt much better this morning.
She raised her hand and touched her forehead, feeling that it wasn't as hot.
However, the man by the bedside had long since disappeared. After a simple wash, she went downstairs. Sister Wu had prepared a table full of breakfast.
Seeing Su Qi come down, she called her over to eat.
Su Qi pulled out a chair and sat down, picking up a meat bun.
"Has Madam told Mr. about the pregnancy yet?" Sister Wu, seeing Su Qi eating with relish, couldn't help but ask.
From the bottom of her heart, Sister Wu hoped Su Qi would say it. As long as this child existed, they wouldn't divorce.
"There's no need."
Su Qi chewed the meat bun and said indifferently.
She heard that Huo Ting Yun and Xu Lin Yun's engagement date was approaching. Lost in thought, a phone call came in.
"Su Qi! Hurry to the film set!"
On the other end of the phone, the voice was noisy. Su Qi vaguely heard a familiar voice shouting.
"Xu Lin Yun, you shameless mistress!"
This is bad.
Su Qi's heart skipped a beat.
She calculated the days. It had been about a week since Li Cui Ping went to the Xu family to make a scene, and it was about time for her to come out.
Even hearing this voice on the phone, Su Qi could recognize it instantly.
She didn't eat breakfast. She quickly drank a mouthful of soy milk, grabbed her phone and car keys, and walked out.
"Madam..."
Sister Wu called from behind.
Su Qi drove to the film city. Because she was in a hurry, she arrived in just over half an hour.
Upon arriving at the film city, she went straight to the hotel.
Before she even reached the hotel entrance, she saw a crowd gathered there.
From a distance, she could hear Li Cui Ping shouting loudly.
"Xu Lin Yun! You mistress! You're ruining my daughter's relationship with my son-in-law! You shameless third party! Humph!" kanδん
Xu Lin Yun was protected behind Mo Yu, and a group of people stood by watching the show.
Two men were pulling Li Cui Ping, preventing her from getting close to Xu Lin Yun.
"This is utterly ridiculous! Xu Lin Yun is an award-winning actress, and Master Chuan and Xu Lin Yun are a renowned immortal couple in the entertainment industry. What are you?"
A producer came over and couldn't help but defend Xu Lin Yun, cursing her harshly, using all sorts of foul language.
Everyone heard this and thought it made sense.
They all started pointing at Li Cui Ping, gossiping, and some began calling Li Cui Ping crazy.
Despite being cursed at by so many people, Li Cui Ping still refused to back down, cursing Xu Lin Yun as a mistress.
Someone in the crowd kicked Li Cui Ping.
Li Cui Ping yelped and fell to the ground.
Everyone watched this madwoman like a joke.
"What are you doing!" Su Qi pushed through the crowd, ran to Li Cui Ping, and helped her up, "Mom, are you alright?"
It was false to say she wasn't heartbroken.
Although she was adopted from an orphanage to bring good luck to Su Yan.
But the Su family had treated her well since she was young, and they never mistreated her in terms of food, clothing, or daily expenses.
Except for that incident...
Seeing Su Yan's mother being cursed at like this, even though they weren't related by blood, Su Qi was furious.
"Su Qi, this is your mother?!"
"What a joke, they don't look alike at all."
"Exactly, she's just a lunatic!"
"You all shut up! If you say one more word, I'll rip your mouths open!"
