Old Mr. Feng was in a difficult position. He had heard that his daughter-in-law was making things difficult for his granddaughter-in-law.
He had already reprimanded Gu Yunjin, but his grandson still refused to stay. What should he do?
“Ruoxi, don’t go. Stay for dinner and help me persuade him.”
Old Mr. Feng was counting on Qiao Ruoxi, but how could Qiao Ruoxi control Feng Yunan?
Qiao Ruoxi forcefully held Feng Yunan’s hand and stopped to talk to the old man. “Grandpa, another day. We’ll go back first today.”
Seeing that they were determined to leave, old Mr. Feng ordered a group of servants to follow them.
“Little Xi, this is the manpower I’ve arranged for you. There’s a chef, a nutritionist, a parenting instructor, and a bodyguard. I’ll bring them back to serve you. In the future, wherever you go, I’ll let the bodyguards follow you to protect you.”
The old man was worried about Qiao Ruoxi’s pregnancy. He did not want her to encounter any more danger. Just thinking about the scene when she fell into the water made his heart tremble.
Qiao Ruoxi thanked the old man for his thoughtfulness, but she was not used to being followed by bodyguards when she went out.
“Grandpa, there’s no need for that. If I keep too high a profile, I’m afraid I’ll arouse the suspicion of others, and it would instead be detrimental to the baby’s safety. I just want to be the old me quietly. Grandpa, I hope you can help me keep my pregnancy a secret.”
The more she rejected him, the more the old man liked her for being sensible.
“Okay then, be careful. If you need anything, just let Yunan know. If you can’t contact him, call me,” the old man said.
“Okay, Grandpa…”
Qiao Ruoxi wanted to say goodbye, but Feng Yunan lost his patience and pulled her away.
Qiao Ruoxi could barely keep up with Feng Yunan perhaps because he was too fast.
When she passed through the Feng family garden, she was already panting from exhaustion. “Slow down, my stomach hurts…”
Feng Yunan stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her. She was gasping for breath, her hand on her belly. He frowned and stayed silent. After a few seconds of silence, he picked her up in his arms and continued to walk out.
The two of them left the Feng family mansion and did not notice the person standing in the attic next to them.
Gu Yunjin looked at the scene of his son leaving with Qiao Ruoxi. It was as if there was a thorn in his eyes.
As the saying goes, A man tends to forget his mother once he has a wife.
Qiao Ruoxi was obviously not an obedient daughter-in-law. She was not as obedient and likable as Wen Ke’er.
Wouldn’t such a daughter-in-law anger her all the time in the future?
Feng Yunan had always been a distance away from her. Now, because of Qiao Ruoxi, they might not even have the chance to meet again.
It was all Qiao Ruoxi’s fault for taking away her son and causing her to be scolded by the old man. She would remember this grudge for the time being.
As long as she, Gu Yunjin, was around, she would not let such a woman harm the Feng family.
Gu Yunjin picked up her phone and made a call.
…
On the way back, Feng Yunan did not look happy at all.
Qiao Ruoxi knew why he was acting that way, so she did not ask anything.
When the luxury car stopped in the parking lot of Fengtian Hospital, Qiao Ruoxi asked, puzzled, “Why are we here?”
Huo Yunshen opened the door and got out of the car. Qiao Ruoxi got out too.
Before she could stand properly, her body was suspended in the air again. Feng Yunan carried her to the exclusive elevator and went straight to the VIP ward on the top floor.
When they arrived at the ward, a group of doctors and nurses were already waiting there.
Feng Yunan placed Qiao Ruoxi on the bed and ordered the doctor, “Check her.”
Qiao Ruoxi pulled Feng Yunan’s sleeve and asked, “What for?”
