Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
With the master gone, it was only natural for his subordinates to make their exit as well. Xu Yi and Zhuang Ling stepped forward, bowing and flashing apologetic grins. “Mr. Sheng, it’s all a misunderstanding. You’re always wele to dine at Clearcreek Mansion. Please excuse us.”
Sheng Jian watched the orderly withdrawal, the muscles on his face twitching uncontrollably. It was unclear whether he was enraged or just cold. Without a word, Sheng Jian rummaged in his pocket and produced a folded piece of paper, tossing it to Xu Yi. “Here, take this. It’s Rong Qi’s medical report.”
Grinning, Xu Yi took the paper without even looking at it and slipped it into his own pocket. “Thanks, Mr. Sheng.”
Once everyone had departed, Sheng Jian’s assistant cautiously approached, swallowing hard. “Mr. Sheng, are we just letting this slide?”
“What choice do we have? Do you think I can stand against Ye Nanshen?” Sheng Jian shook his head ruefully. Within half an hour, he was certain that all the men and helicopters that had appeared would vanish without a trace, impossible to locate.
No one in the capital could mobilize such manpower on such short notice except Ye Nanshen.
Looking at the luxury car in the lead, a gratified smile crossed Sheng Jian’s face. He realized that at least Rong Qi was better at choosing men than her mother.
That smile, however, alarmed his assistant. “Mr. Sheng… are you alright?”
‘How could he still smile after his mansion got bombed? Did he snap or something?’ the assistant thought.
Frowning, Sheng Jian retorted, “What do you know?” He tossed a card to his assistant. “It’s not a big deal. Just have it repaired. I’ll stay at the villa in the city center for now.”
The villa was close to Clearcreek Mansion, and Sheng Jian thought it was a suitable alternative.
In the car, Rong Qi still looked pallid, her scent tinged with antiseptic, making Ye Nanshen’s heart clench. He asked, “Little Qi, what happened? Why did you faint all of a sudden?”
Eyes closed, her voice frail, Rong Qi answered, “I’m fine. It’s just that time of the month for girls. Don’t worry; I’m already better.”
Ye Nanshen nodded and embraced her, allowing her to lean against him and rest as the driver sped back to Clearcreek Mansion. Once there, Ye Nanshen carried Rong Qi into the mansion, where their butler and Mrs. Hong were anxiously waiting.
“What happened to Madam?” Mrs. Hong exclaimed upon seeing Rong Qi’s plexion.
Ye Nanshen paused, then answered, “She’s feeling weak.”
Mrs. Hong shot Ye Nanshen a reproachful look. ‘Men! Always clueless when it came to looking after their wives. No young woman could be inexplicably ‘weak’ like this.’
“Shall we call Mr. Lu to check on her?” Mrs. Hong suggested.
“Yes,” Ye Nanshen agreed.
“I’m fine, Mrs. Hong,” Rong Qi interrupted as she struggled to free herself from Ye Nanshen’s hold. “I just came back from Mr. Lu’s hospital. I just need some rest.”
“But—”
“I’ll be fine after some rest,” Rong Qi assured, and Ye Nanshen led her upstairs.
As soon as they were gone, Xu Yi and Zhuang Ling walked in. “Hey, Mrs. Hong! Where’s Ye Nanshen?” Xu Yi asked, boisterously.
“Keep it down, will you?” Mrs. Hong glared at Xu Yi. “Master Shen has taken Madam upstairs to rest.”
“Oh,” Xu Yi scratched his head. “I’ll e back later to report, then.”
As Xu Yi turned to leave, he suddenly remembered the medical report from Sheng Jian. “Oh, right. This is Madam’s medical report, from Mr. Sheng. When Master Shen es down, could you pass it to him?”
Mrs. Hong sighed as she took the report, feeling Zhuang Ling was the more reliable one. However, as soon as she opened it, her eyes widened in disbelief. She exclaimed, “Madam is pregnant!”
“What the hell!”
