“I won’t. I won’t curse myself anymore. Don’t be mad, Rong Rong.” Ye Nanshen said that while blowing powdered sugar towards Rong Qi.
Speechless, Rong Qi turned to look at Ye Nanshen. He tried to suppress his laughter and said, “I tried my best, but this batch is too dry…”
For some reason, seeing Ye Nanshen forced into business, Rong Qi felt like laughing. She handed him a gla.s.s of water to drink. After he drank it, Ye Nanshen wiped her face.
Ye Nanshen approached Rong Qi, he smelled the lemon on her and asked, “Are you feeling unwell again?”
“No, not at all.” Rong Qi replied.
“Don’t wander off any more. Your rest is important.” Ye Nanshen advised. He gently touched her belly, his eyes flickering slightly.
Ye Nanshen wondered how much longer his child would stay inside. He believed that the baby occupying Rong Qi for ten months was a bit too much.
Rong Qi gave a resigned smile. She observed Ye Nanshen’s red eyes, pondering, ‘I had been checking his pulse for the past few days, and his body seemed perfectly normal, even his emotions were stable. What went wrong? Why did he still have red eyes?’
Rong Qi frowned and continued pondering, ‘Is it true that pregnancy lowers one’s IQ? I couldn’t even figure out a direction to think in.’
After speaking with Rong Qi, Ye Nanshen carried her to the adjoining bedroom for rest, while he returned to the study to work.
Xu Yi and Zhuang Ling came in to report, just in time to see Ye Nanshen picking at his eyes.
“Master, what are you doing behind my back?” Xu Yi asked.
Ye Nanshen threw a file at Xu Yi and said, “Shut up!”
Ye Nanshen blinked and removed something from his eyes. He felt relieved.
Xu Yi was stunned. He exclaimed, “Master, you’re faking it!”
Zhuang Ling was surprised too, but more composed. He remembered he was the one who bought that thing. He had asked Ye Nanshen what it was for before. Zhuang Ling could guess it was for faking illness.
Ye Nanshen threw the item into the trash and glared at Xu Yi, “Another word and I’ll throw you in the trash.”
“No, no,” Xu Yi shook his head.
Ye Nanshen frowned and complained, “That thing is uncomfortable. Don’t get it for me anymore.”
Zhuang Ling acknowledged, but his gaze at Ye Nanshen was strange.
Xu Yi, however, was contemptuous. He wondered, ‘When did Master Shen become so childish? Just to win sympathy from his wife, he stooped to such tricks. How disdainful!’
After leaving the study, Xu Yi commented to Zhuang Ling, “We must never be like Master Shen. For a taste of Madam’s cooking and to soften her heart, he used such tactics. Too despicable.”
Zhuang Ling glared at Xu Yi and said, “And you shouldn’t backbite Master Shen. If not for Madam, who knows where you’d be buried by Master Shen now!”
Xu Yi shrugged, “Boring.”
Zhuang Ling added, “But, I agree on one point. Master Shen’s probably doing this to get his way while sick. Look, after causing a scene at the Ye residence, n.o.body there dares to utter a word.”
“Exactly!”
Rong Qi slept until 1030 a.m. the next day. She remembered her duel with Ye Shaoxian. She quickly got ready, tucked her Rabbity into the blankets, and sneaked out.
However, instead of heading to the boxing gym, Rong Qi went to Cloudsurf Temple.
At Cloudsurf Temple, Rong Qi entered through a path Master Zenith had told her about. Although she didn’t climb much, she was still tired. She leaned against a large tree to catch her breath and suddenly saw someone holding a token, waiting nearby..
