Chapter 429 This Is Your Home
Gu Luan feels surprised that An Zihao will say so to him.
An Zihao slightly lifts his lips, “Mr. Gu, I know you have some connection with Jiang Yongran. I don’t care what you are doing. However, Xia Ning is chosen by President Zhou. President Zhou must have her reasons to do so. Mr. Gu, I hope you don’t interfere in this.”
Undeniably, when Xia Ning showed up, An Zihao was suspicious of her. The suspicion has not disappeared till now. However, Xia Ning gives him the impression that she has her rules and principles. After investigating for some time, he vaguely finds that Zhou Mengyao is almost asking Xia Ning for a favor to become her a.s.sistant.
He knows Zhou Mengyao very well. So, he chooses to believe Xia Ning.
An Zihao ignores Gu Luan’s reaction. He turns to leave.
This Mr. Gu surely knows that Xia Ning is married while he still tries to get her by force. An Zihao knows that he can’t make Gu Luan drop his idea with a few words.
If Gu Luan doesn’t stop, An Zihao will interfere in his plan!
The nurse sends some nutritious food. Besides the basic rice and dishes, they add some other nutrients such as milk and folic acid for Xia Ning. Xia Ning’s wounds are still painful, but she tolerates the pain and eats a lot of the food.
Even if she doesn’t want to eat, the baby needs to eat. And she bled a lot. She needs to have extra nutrition.
She doesn’t tell anyone about her injury. She is afraid that her friends will be worried about her. And all her friends are office workers, who don’t have time to look after her.
She believes that she can take good care of herself.
However, after she finishes eating, three unexpected visitors arrive.
They are Zhou Mengyao, Zhang Hai and Jing Shu.
Xia Ning looks at the things they are carrying with them in surprise. They bring a lot of things with them!
Zhang Hai and Jing Shu bring some fruit and some snacks. Zhou Mengyao brings some fruit as well as some nutritious food for pregnant women.
When Zhou Mengyao puts down the things, Jing Shu is the first to cry out!
“Sister Xia, are you pregnant?”
Hearing this, Zhang Hai is shocked. He looks at Xia Ning’s belly. He thinks for a while and asks confusedly, “Why do you need to come to the hospital because of pregnancy?”
These days, Mrs. Yi left home early and came back late. He waited outside Junhao Group but didn’t see Mrs. Yi come out after off time. He was confused when a man surnamed An called him and told him that Mrs. Yi was in the hospital.
When he heard that on the phone, he felt shocked. Mrs. Yi was in the hospital. Could she be injured?
The man surnamed An didn’t tell anything more but the address of the hospital. So, Zhang Hai turned his direction and rushed to the hospital.
When he got off the car, he received a call from Jing Shu. Then, they came together.
Xia Ning smiles, “It is nothing serious. There are only some scratches. I come here for some inspections.”
Zhou Mengyao sits by her bed. She holds Xia Ning’s hand, “Well. Let me have a look at your wounds.”
“Aunt Zhou, it is all right. You may not look at them.” Xia Ning draws her hand back.
“Don’t move! I don’t want to hurt you.” Zhou Mengyao slightly tightens her hand. She ignores Xia Ning’s responses and removes her sleeve. When she sees the b.l.o.o.d.y wound, she tightly frowns, “You silly kid. How could you hurt yourself so seriously?”
Zhou Mengyao gently removes Xia Ning’s clothes on her shoulder. She shakes her head and gives a sigh, “You would kill yourself! I warn you. Don’t ever do this again!”
“Mrs. Yi, which b.a.s.t.a.r.d hurt you? Tell me. He will die without descendants!” As a guard, Zhang Hai can tell how the wounds were made with the first sight of them! He can imagine how desperate Xia Ning was at that time!
Zhang Hai is not telling jokes to say so. Xia Ning shakes her head at once, “It is OK. I made the wounds by myself. Well…We may talk about that later.”
“Mrs. Yi, you are seriously injured. How can you say it is OK? How painful will the Commander feel if he sees these! Don’t worry. I have a lot of ways …”
Not waiting for Zhang Hai to finish his words, Zhou Mengyao slightly lifts her hand to interrupt. She turns to Xia Ning, “Ning, I have got the man under control. We will discuss how to deal with him later. Now, the most important thing for you is to get recovered as soon as possible. The doctor just said that it would be troublesome if you got infected or feverous. During the time, you may eat more food which is helpful for you to enhance your resistance. Have more sleep. You may not worry about the work of the company.”
Zhang Hai still wants to say something. But Jing Shu draws him to stop, motioning him not to speak.
“President Zhou, is Sister Xia pregnant?”
Zhou Mengyao nods, “Girl, don’t tell other people about Ning’s pregnancy. If it is possible, you may come here often to take care of her.”
Jing Shu nods, “Don’t worry. I will come here whenever I have time…”
“Shu, it is inconvenient for you to leave your mother alone at home. Don’t worry about me. I am fine.” Xia Ning interrupts.
Jing Shu hesitates for a while, “It is fine. The condition of my mother is stable now. But I am very worried about you. It is said that pregnant women can’t have medicine. You are injured so seriously. It must be very painful.”
Xia Ning smiles, “It is not painful. I don’t think about it and I won’t feel painful.”
She has got Yi Yunrui’s kid in her belly. She feels sweet whenever she thinks about this. The pain doesn’t bother her.
Zhang Hai has a lot of words but he can’t speak them out. He clenches his fists, “I will take full responsibility to take care of Mrs. Yi. I failed my duty again!”
Zhou Mengyao lifts her eyebrows, “Sure. If it is possible, bring more guards here. Unnecessary people are not allowed to come in.”
“OK. I see. Mrs. Yi, what do you want to eat? Whatever you want, tell me. Give me the words and I will get it for you at once!”
Xia Ning smiles, “I have been always bothering you. Sorry. Thank you, Zhang.”
“It is all right. It is what I should do…”
“Do what? Sister Xia has me here!” Jing Shu argues, “Sister Xia, Zhang Hai is a man. Most of the time, it is inconvenient for him to take care of you. So, Sister Xia, you may tell me first if you need anything. I will surely do it better than he does.”
Hearing this, Zhang Hai widens his eyes, “What are you messing up here? I am a guard of the commander. I am responsible for the safety of Mrs. Yi. I have earned the national standard qualification. You can only do some fancy patterns. Don’t overestimate yourself. See?”
Jing Shu puts her hands on her waist. She says in displeasure, “You are foolish, soldier! Do you dare to buy the women’s stuff? Well. Zhang Hai, you may go to choose a piece of underwear for Sister Xia! She is not used to the clothes provided by the hospital.”
Not expecting that Jing Shu will speak so frankly, Zhang Hai can’t reply. He blushes, “I…I don’t want to argue with you.”
Jing Shu finds her win. She puts on a bright smile.
“Well. You two don’t argue.” Zhou Mengyao smiles, “As it is said, man is for outside work while woman inside. Zhang Hai, you may be responsible for the safety of Ning while Jing Shu is responsible for the daily care. It is settled. No arguing again.”
Zhang Hai and Jing Shu stares at each other. Jing Shu takes out an apple, “Sister Xia, I peel an apple for you.”
The girl is efficient. Zhang Hai takes out his phone and says, “Mrs. Yi, I may arrange some guards for you.”
Then, he turns around to leave.
Zhou Mengyao holds Xia Ning’s hand, “Ning, you may stay in the hospital for some days and then go directly to my place, so that I can take care of you.”
“Ah?” Xia Ning feels surprised, “Aunt Zhou, I can take care of myself. I can’t bother you so much.”
Zhou Mengyao shakes her head, “It won’t bother me. Ning, Rui is not here. There are no people looking after you. I have time. You may take it as accompanying me for some time.”
Xia Ning thinks for a while, “Aunt Zhou, you are busy with the company’s business. I am a pregnant woman. I heard that pregnant women are unstable in their moods. I am afraid that I may annoy you.”
“Ha. Ha. Ha!” Zhou Mengyao laughs, “If so, it is more necessary for me to look after you. Rui asked me to do that before he left. I have servants and a cook at home. You may vent your anger on them, even on me, but not on yourself. You have not recovered from your injury yet!”
Xia Ning smiles in embarra.s.sment. Seemingly, Zhou Mengyao has made up her mind for that.
“We may talk about that after I recover.”
“No hurry.” Zhou Mengyao strokes Xia Ning’s hair, “Anyway, I am always here.”
Soon, Zhang Hai comes in with a few tall and strong soldiers behind, “Mrs. Yi, what about these soldiers? They are all my good friends. They are smart and tough!”
Then, Zhang Hai glances at Jing Shu arrogantly.
Xia Ning can’t help laughing, “Sure, your people are excellent. But isn’t it a waste to have so excellent soldiers here?”
Zhang Hai waves his hand, “Not at all. We are soldiers. We protect our country and our people. So, protecting people is as important as protecting the country. Mrs. Yi, you are precious to our commander. It is our honor to protect you. Am I right, bros?”
He has just finished his words while the soldiers respond together in a loud voice, “Yes! It is our honor to protect Mrs. Yi!
The voices are so loud that they shock Xia Ning. She responds at once, “Well. Well. Then, thank you. We are in the hospital. Watch your voice volume.”
“Yes! Mrs. Yi!”
“…”
From that day on, Zhang Hai is responsible for the security of Xia Ning while Zhou Mengyao and Jing Shu take care of Xia Ning’s daily life. They take turns and cooperate. Because of the injury, Xia Ning stays in the hospital for other few days. Then, Zhou Mengyao takes Xia Ning directly back to her home and hires a private doctor for Xia Ning.
And other people all transfer their focus to Zhou Mengyao’s house.
Looking at the luxurious and beautiful villa which is as large as a palace, Xia Ning feels shocked. Zhou Mengyao is abnormally rich!
“Come to look at this.” Zhou Mengyao shows Xia Ning a drawing, “This is the layout of the house and the location of the servants. Basically, we have all the health care and entertainment facilities here. If you want to have something else, you may tell me.”
Xia Ning takes the drawing in surprise, “Aunt Zhou, you have an awesome home!”
Zhou Mengyao smiles. She strokes Xia Ning’s hair, “You silly, Aunt’s home is your home, too.”
