Chapter 977 Fell Ill

"Sister, I saw her go to the Ling Sha Bar. She met a man and only came out half an hour later. I followed and saw the man wearing a baseball cap. He left half an hour later, but I didn't see what he looked like. Judging by his build, he should be a middle-aged man."

"I've already taken photos. I'll send them to you later."

Jiang Nuan: "Okay. Are you following that man now?"

Yan Qi: "Sister, no. I'm following Chu Yunying, but after seeing her meet with Li Huixin, I lost her when she came out."

Jiang Nuan narrowed her eyes. Li Huixin!

The same Li Huixin from last time?

The woman who was hypnotized by Chu Yunying and then tried to push her.

What kind of working relationship existed between them?

"Qi Qi, don't follow too closely. Be careful." Jiang Nuan reminded her.

"Sister, don't worry. I'll be careful." Yan Qi hung up the phone.

Jiang Nuan quickly received the photos. She looked at the middle-aged man in the picture and narrowed her eyes.

Judging by his build, he was a stranger. She shouldn't have met this man before.

Why did he meet Chu Yunying fully disguised?

Jiang Nuan lay down to sleep again, but her mind was wide awake.

Mu Jiuchen entered after finishing his work and saw her lying on the bed, lost in thought. He walked over and sat by the bed.

He looked at her and asked in a low voice, "Wife, what are you thinking about?"

Jiang Nuan's beautiful eyes slowly turned to him, and she suddenly smiled gently. "Husband, I'm thinking of you!"

Mu Jiuchen narrowed his deep eyes, looking at her. Her expression indicated she had something to tell him.

And it was something he wouldn't agree to.

After being together for so long, he understood her every move.

"Husband," Jiang Nuan called him again, softly.

Mu Jiuchen glanced at her. "If you have something to say, just say it." His voice was deep.

Jiang Nuan weighed the possibility of him agreeing in her heart.

"It's like this, Han Yixuan has rehired me, and I want to go. Please let me go." She still had to investigate the Shadow Hall, which was also dangerous, and she didn't dare to let him know.

Mu Jiuchen knew it was about this. He said, "Nuannuan, I said I would support all your endeavors, but this is very dangerous."

Jiang Nuan slowly sat up and leaned into his arms, acting coy. He smiled and said, "Husband, don't worry. I'm sensible when I do things. I won't make you worry."

Mu Jiuchen looked at her with a worried expression. "I really want to be at ease about you, but your body is not as good as before. Don't you realize that you sleep for a long time every day, go to bed early, and wake up late? You can fall asleep whenever you want, and your body gets tired easily."

Mu Jiuchen looked at her helplessly.

She didn't understand his worries.

Jiang Nuan didn't say anything. She would take this matter slowly.

No rush!

As long as Chu Yunying was in Modu, she could uproot them.

She smiled. "Then let's wait a bit longer. I'll recuperate first."

Mu Jiuchen: "!!"

She still wouldn't give up!

"Okay! Then sleep a bit longer. I'll go to the office and call you for dinner." Mu Jiuchen pulled the covers over her.

Jiang Nuan didn't say anything. She lay down and closed her eyes to sleep.

After dealing with the matter, she felt sleepy again.

Mu Jiuchen looked at her quickly falling into a steady breathing pattern, his brow furrowing slightly. With her current health, how could she still do those dangerous things?

He lay down for a long time before he could fall asleep, and unless he was very tired, it took him half an hour to fall asleep.

Han Yixuan had been investigating his father's affairs from beginning to end.

It was because of Nuannuan's abilities that she was dragged into it.

As of now, Han Yixuan's father's affairs still had no outcome.

Han Yixuan actually had his own thoughts and wanted a final result.

Mu Jiuchen sighed slightly and stood up to go to his office.

When Jiang Nuan woke up, it was already dark outside.

She opened her eyes, feeling a little unaccustomed to the darkness.

She fumbled for the bedside lamp, and the room became much brighter.

Her whole body felt weak, and she had a bad feeling.

Had Mu Jiuchen been right? Was her body getting weaker?

"Cough, cough..."

Jiang Nuan: "..."

Did she catch a cold?

"Why are you coughing?" Mu Jiuchen's tall, slender figure walked in.

He stood by the bed, looking at her nervously.

Jiang Nuan sat up and said, "My throat is a little sore."

Mu Jiuchen frowned. "I'll get you some medicine."

Jiang Nuan: "Okay!"

After taking the medicine, Mu Jiuchen let her get up to eat dinner.

Jiang Nuan's medicine was all traditional Chinese medicine.

It wouldn't cause much harm to her stomach.

Sitting at the table, Jiang Nuan felt a little cold.

She sniffled, her nose felt blocked, and she shivered.

Mu Jiuchen looked at her, his brow still not relaxed.

"Wife, it seems you really are sick."

Jiang Nuan looked at him faintly. "Mm! It might be the change of season, and also I woke up early today."

Speaking of which, Jiang Nuan glared at him indignantly, her eyes filled with resentment. "It's also related to what happened last night. I sweated a lot last night, and I cried, but you didn't let me go."

Mu Jiuchen: "!!"

His expression suddenly became a little proud.

For a man, this kind of thing was pride!

He served her a bowl of chicken soup and smiled, fawning over her. "Wife, I'll feed you."

Jiang Nuan looked at the chicken soup in his hand. The greasy feeling made her uncomfortable.

"Forget it, I won't drink the chicken soup. I'll eat some pumpkin." Jiang Nuan looked at the steamed pumpkin and really wanted to eat it.

Mu Jiuchen brought the pumpkin to her.

Jiang Nuan lowered her head and ate. The soft, sweet pumpkin melted in her mouth, and her mood gradually improved.

Mu Jiuchen watched her eat seriously, then lowered his head to eat.

After dinner, Jiang Nuan called Song Baoli.

"Nuannuan."

Song Baoli's tone was always slow and deliberate.

Jiang Nuan asked, "How is Grandpa Hua doing?"

"Heh heh..." Song Baoli asked with a smile, "Nuannuan, don't you believe in your own abilities? Grandpa Hua is doing very well. He's recovering nicely."

"That's good!" Jiang Nuan was relieved.

After dinner, Jiang Nuan still felt weak all over.

"Husband, I'm going to sleep. Have you finished your work?" Jiang Nuan asked lazily, leaning on the sofa.

Mu Jiuchen walked over and sat beside her, gently stroking her forehead with his long fingers.

"No fever."

Jiang Nuan nodded. "Mm! I just feel a little unwell."

She slowly leaned into his embrace. His body exuded a cold, clean, and charming aura.

Mu Jiuchen held her tightly, their bodies pressed close together.

Mu Jiuchen rested his head in the crook of her shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Nuannuan, does it still feel uncomfortable like this? When I'm sick, holding you makes me feel half better."

A romantic and warm atmosphere faintly permeated the space between them.

Jiang Nuan felt that what he said made sense.

"Mm!" Jiang Nuan nestled her head in his embrace and closed her eyes.

"Carry me to bed," she still wanted to sleep.

Mu Jiuchen carried her to the room.

Jiang Nuan lay down and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

Mu Jiuchen frowned. What was going on?

As he was thinking, his phone in his bag vibrated.

He took it out and saw it. He frowned slightly. It was Shu Lang who had returned.
