"Haha... Dad, how did you know I was done eating?" Jiang Shaoqing chuckled a little embarrassedly.
"Actually, it wasn't me. I'm already tired of eating. It's Master who wants to eat."
His Master, who was listening nearby, was speechless.
How awkward!
He was this old, and he still liked to eat snacks!
Wouldn't people laugh at him if it got out?
The Daoist priest couldn't help but glare at his beloved disciple.
Embarrassing, so embarrassing!
Mu Jiuchen smiled and said, "Dad knows. I'll have someone send it over to you tomorrow."
"Mhmm... thank you, Dad. Since Master ate Dad's chicken legs, he's been teaching me much faster. If Dad sends him more chicken legs, I can go home earlier." Jiang Shaoqing happily spun in a circle.
Hearing his son's cheers, Mu Jiuchen's mood inexplicably improved.
"Alright! Dad will send you more."
"Thank you, Dad! Goodbye!"
Mu Jiuchen hung up the phone and sent a message to Xiao Fan to handle the matter.
After sending the message, he quickly received a reply from Xiao Fan.
[President, Miss Shen is asking when you can meet again. She said she was very angry after you left that day. If you can apologize, the cooperation can continue.]
Mu Jiuchen saw the message and didn't reply. He tossed his phone aside.
Apologize?
Impossible!
Shen Siyu was playing hard to get with him, Mu Jiuchen.
"Dad, when will Mommy wake up?" Jiang Siyun looked at her father with bright, worried eyes.
Mu Jiuchen looked at his daughter dotingly and said softly, "Yunyun, your Mommy said she's tired. She'll wake up when she's had enough sleep."
Jiang Yukuo frowned and asked, "Dad, didn't you give Mommy a comprehensive check-up? Can normal people sleep for so long?"
Mu Jiuchen: "Yes, your Mommy also slept for three days last time. She should wake up today."
He wasn't sure, but he had a feeling she would wake up today.
Jiang Yukuo and Jiang Siyun silently watched their father.
Mu Jiuchen stood up and said, "I'll go make breakfast for you."
The siblings nodded and continued to watch over their mother.
Especially Jiang Siyun, who occasionally felt her mother's pulse, afraid it would suddenly stop.
Afternoon!
Jiang Nuan slowly opened her eyes.
Seeing her son and daughter by her side, she smiled dotingly, "Babies, you're here?"
Her voice was hoarse from just waking up.
"I'm sorry! Mommy broke her promise and couldn't pick you up at the airport."
The siblings were stunned and looked at their mother in surprise.
"Mommy, are you awake?"
"Mommy, are you awake?"
The siblings spoke in unison, surprised and excited.
Seeing their mother's sleeping appearance, they were truly afraid.
When Jiang Nuan heard this, she seemed to recall something.
"How long have I slept?" she asked quickly.
"You've slept for three days and three nights," Mu Jiuchen's gentle and excited voice came from the doorway.
Jiang Nuan: "!!"
She was confused. Why had she slept for three days and three nights again?
Jiang Nuan looked apologetically at Mu Jiuchen, "I'm sorry, husband, for making you worry again."
Jiang Nuan then looked at her two babies, "And for making my babies worry."
Jiang Yukuo and Jiang Siyun's eyes reddened.
Jiang Siyun held her mother's hand and said, "Mommy, we can apply to transfer here next semester. We can protect Mommy and won't let Mommy get hurt again."
Jiang Nuan looked at her daughter and wiped the tears from her small face, "Silly girl, why are you crying? Mommy just has a minor injury. I'll be fine after resting."
Jiang Siyun disagreed with her mother's words, "You still call it a minor injury? You've slept for three days and three nights."
Jiang Nuan was speechless. It was the truth.
Mu Jiuchen handed her a cup of hot water.
Jiang Nuan smiled and took it, drinking it in small sips.
Seeing his haggard face, knowing she was alright, he still couldn't control his worry.
Those who deeply love someone always love to the point of tears, to the point of desperately protecting.
Mu Jiuchen loved her this way.
Mu Jiuchen looked at her delicate features, her smiling eyes filled with charm.
He asked softly, "Does the wound still hurt?"
Jiang Nuan looked down at the wound on her shoulder. She had woken up once during the surgery, and Song Baoli had used the last dose of the repair potion. She moved slightly, and the wound had indeed healed a lot. There was only a slight stinging sensation, and her movement was not affected.
She gently pulled open her collar and looked at the wound. It was still bandaged, but she could feel that it was recovering well.
Jiang Nuan smiled, "It's recovering very well. It seems the potion developed this time was successful."
"Mhm! I've changed your dressing these past few days, and I found that your wound is healing very quickly." Mu Jiuchen was amazed by her medical skills. Her medical skills, her medicine, truly shocked him!
Jiang Nuan took a deep breath before saying, "I also have some progress on the antidote for the Excellency. With the time available these few days, I should be able to finalize the best formula."
Mu Jiuchen's brows furrowed with a hint of anger, "Your wound isn't even healed yet, and you're already thinking about others. You're not allowed to do anything these few days except lie in bed and rest."
Mu Jiuchen commanded sternly.
Jiang Nuan had to compromise, but her whole body ached. She had slept for too long and didn't want to sleep anymore.
"Husband, shall we take the children out for dinner tonight? I've slept for too long. If I sleep any longer, my bones will fall apart." My stomach is empty, and I really want to eat something delicious.
It was strange, but even though she had slept for three days and three nights, she hadn't even had a dream.
Mu Jiuchen: "Okay."
"Yay!" Jiang Siyun cheered happily.
"Mommy, then let's go to Yushi Mansion to eat. I really like the fish there."
Jiang Nuan: "...Alright!"
Jiang Nuan got out of bed, washed up, reported her safety to the Lu family, and the family of four set off for dinner. Yushi Mansion was a manor-style restaurant with beautiful architecture, especially at night when the lights were resplendent.
The children could also play in the garden after dinner.
There were many entertainment facilities.
Mu Jiuchen had already booked a private room in advance, and he led them directly to it.
In the garden, Jiang Siyun liked the play facilities. She looked at her father and said, "Dad, I know where the private room is. I want to play here for a while. I haven't played on the slide for a long time."
Mu Jiuchen was quite surprised by this. The three children were very mature in their thinking.
The children were unwilling to go to the amusement park. Although they were children themselves, they often said that amusement parks were for children and they didn't like them.
Hearing their little princess say she wanted to play on the slide, he finally smiled. Their little princess was finally experiencing a childhood.
"Okay! Come up in ten minutes. It's almost time for dinner," Mu Jiuchen reminded her.
"Okay!" Jiang Siyun smiled and ran towards the slide.
Jiang Nuan smiled, held her son's small hand, and followed Mu Jiuchen.
Not far away, Chu Yunying was also having dinner here. From a distance, she recognized Jiang Siyun.
This was the daughter of Jiang Nuan and Mu Jiuchen. Had they come to Modu?
She hadn't seen Jiang Nuan these past few days, but she had seen her daughter.
The man standing with her asked, "Yingying, what are you looking at?"
Chu Yunying looked at the middle-aged man, her eyes filled with a predatory glint, "You wanted to avenge Madam Jiang, didn't you? The opportunity is here now. See that little girl on the slide? She's the daughter of Mu Jiuchen and Jiang Nuan."
"Oh!" The middle-aged man looked thoughtfully at Jiang Siyun, a sinister smile on his face, "Leave it to me to handle."
