“Nuannuan, I’ll propose tomorrow.”
Mu Jiuchen’s sudden words stunned Jiang Nuan. Was this about a proposal?
Was this about marriage?
She couldn’t help but say, “Mu Jiuchen, carrying triplets is very tiring. When I was carrying Kuo Bao and the others, I didn’t sleep well for a single day. We already have three children. Let’s go with the flow. If we have another, we’ll have it; if not, we won’t.”
“Oh!” Mu Jiuchen had already imagined a scene of four daughters running wild.
But he also didn’t want Nuannuan to suffer.
“Nuannuan, let’s sleep. I don’t want you to be tired either.” He looked at Yun Xia’s belly; she had some difficulty walking. Fine, no more children. This was good enough. He was already very happy.
“Mmm!” Jiang Nuan then happily nestled into his arms.
The next morning, Jiang Nuan woke up very early. After breakfast, Mu Jiuchen went to the company for an important meeting.
Lu Jinyan took Jiang Yukuo to the company to prepare for tonight’s live broadcast.
Lu Jin Yue took Jiang Si Yun out to play, and Jiang Nuan also went to see Yun Xia.
She didn’t drive herself, fearing she might have an episode at any moment. Mu Jiuchen arranged for Chen Feng, who returned to being her driver.
Chen Feng smiled, “Miss Jiang, congratulations on your recovery. While you were lying down, Master Ji was like a lost soul. He was fine with the children around during the day, but he cried secretly at night.”
“Cried!” Jiang Nuan was stunned by the word, looking at Chen Feng in surprise.
“Yes, I also couldn’t imagine Master crying. I heard it from the young master. When he got up at night, he heard Master crying in his room. Master has been alone for many years. You found him after so long, and then you had an accident. He was anxious and couldn’t see you. We’ve been with him for many years and understand Master Ji’s personality the best.”
“When Miss Jiang had her accident, Master Ji mobilized all his forces and wiped out Yang Tiancheng’s influence.”
Jiang Nuan was touched and happy. Mu Jiuchen had never said these things. At night, when they slept, he always held her tightly.
She knew he had a lot of insecurity.
Chen Feng was a talkative person and chattered non-stop the entire way. Within a few minutes, they arrived at Li Qing Shuo’s home.
Chen Feng parked the car outside Li Qing Shuo’s villa and waited for Jiang Nuan.
Jiang Nuan had contacted Yun Xia in advance. Seeing Jiang Nuan arrive, Yun Xia happily walked out and hugged her. Yun Xia then looked at Jiang Nuan, tears of joy streaming down her face, “Nuannuan, you’re finally back.”
Jiang Nuan looked at her, pursed her lips, and smiled happily. “Xia Xia, don’t cry, it’s bad for your eyes. I’m back safe and sound, aren’t I?”
“Mmm-hmm!” Yun Xia wiped away her tears, noticing she was thinner than before but also more beautiful.
When Jiang Nuan smiled, it was always so radiant, her large eyes sparkling, making her exceptionally lovable.
“Nuannuan.” Li Qing Shuo also came out, smiling at Jiang Nuan, “Congratulations on your recovery!”
Jiang Nuan nodded at him, “Thank you!”
“Nuannuan, come, let’s go inside and talk,” Yun Xia said, pulling Jiang Nuan inside.
Li Qing Shuo looked at Yun Xia and said, “Xia Xia, you stay and chat with Nuannuan. I’ll go buy some groceries and make lunch. I’ll be back soon.”
“Okay!” Yun Xia nodded slightly at him.
Li Qing Shuo smiled and turned to leave.
Jiang Nuan followed Yun Xia inside, and they sat on the sofa. Jiang Nuan looked at Yun Xia’s belly and smiled, “Xia Xia, in two months you’ll be free. Bringing a little baby then will be even more tiring than now.”
Yun Xia had already considered this. She gently stroked her belly and smiled, “It’s okay. No matter how tiring it is, I will raise the child. You raised three children, and I can raise my child too. Nuannuan, I can do it.”
She had thought a lot about it. Now that Li Qing Shuo acknowledged the child, her future pressure wouldn’t be too great.
There were many things to come. Yun Xia didn’t want to think too much. She just wanted to safely give birth to the child and raise it to adulthood. She really didn’t want to think about anything else.
“Don’t worry, I’m here too. In the past, it was you, Nan Zhou, and Yuan Yuan who helped me with the children. From now on, I’ll help you with your child.” Jiang Nuan was very grateful for their help, otherwise, she couldn’t have raised three children, working and taking care of them at the same time, always busy.
Jiang Nuan thought for a moment; she still had to see Nan Zhou today and was indeed a bit busy.
After chatting with Yun Xia for a while, Jiang Nuan received a call. She went out to take it. It was from Number One.
“J.”
“Mmm!”
“J, how has everything been since you returned to the country?” Number One asked with a smile.
Jiang Nuan looked at the beautiful roses blooming in the garden and said with a smile, “It’s okay, I can eat and drink normally.” And enjoy intimacy with Mu Jiuchen.
Number One: “I’m sorry, J. After you called me that day, I asked Old Wang and found out his great-grandson has dissociative identity disorder. The main personality is very bad, and the secondary personality is very gentle. Old Wang said Han Yifan hasn’t had an episode for nearly two years. Perhaps it was meeting you and being interested in you that caused him to suddenly relapse, and the main personality appeared.”
Jiang Nuan: “…”
“J, the medicine Han Yifan gave you will cause you great pain. Old Wang said he is very sorry, and this poison currently has no antidote.”
Jiang Nuan’s grip on her phone tightened slightly. She said, “It’s okay, I’ll handle it myself. Don’t worry.”
“J, don’t worry. Dark Emperor is trying to find a way to detoxify you, and Cape No. 1 is also trying. You’ll be fine.” Number One’s voice was filled with guilt.
“Okay!” What else could Jiang Nuan say?
Nothing she said would matter. Han Yifan was a scoundrel, and she was in so much pain!
At that time, she only blamed herself for being too careless.
After chatting with Number One for a while, Jiang Nuan hung up the phone and turned around to see two men in the living room.
They were walking towards Yun Xia.
Jiang Nuan’s eyes widened in fury as she rushed in. One of the men was holding a dagger and lunging towards Yun Xia’s belly.
Jiang Nuan gasped in shock and rushed forward at top speed, shielding Yun Xia in her arms.
“Xia Xia.” Jiang Nuan cried out. The dagger in the man’s hand pierced Jiang Nuan’s arm.
“Screech…” The sound of flesh being cut open made Yun Xia’s face drain of color.
Immediately, blood gushed from Jiang Nuan’s arm, staining her white shirt red.
“Nuannuan.” Yun Xia looked at her bleeding arm, flustered and unsure of what to do. Seeing another man charging at them, a cold glint flashed in Jiang Nuan’s eyes. She kicked at the man charging towards them. Both men had their faces covered, revealing only their eyes.
Jiang Nuan didn’t hold back. Her movements were fast and fierce. The two men instantly fell to the ground, unable to move.
Jiang Nuan stepped on the chest of one of the men, looking down at him. “Tell me, who sent you?”
She had already heard about Yun Xia from Meng Yuan.
That’s why Yun Xia was here, but after only a few days, she encountered danger.
The man looked at Jiang Nuan’s murderous eyes, and fear flooded his entire body. For some reason, seeing these murderous eyes, he felt as if he was seeing a bloody battlefield.
Her slender foot pressed on his chest, so heavy it felt like a giant rock crushing him, making it difficult for him to breathe.
“Die!” The other man suddenly pulled out a gun and fired at Yun Xia.
