Chapter 688: Chapter 688: Will She Be Able to Safely Give Birth?

The bodyguards were amazed by Li Tianyi’s thick skin. Why weren’t they allowed in? Weren’t these two already clear about it in their hearts? Did someone really need to bluntly spell it out?

Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi’s gaze fell directly on Li Yehan’s face, watching to see how he would respond.

“Second Uncle, Second Aunt, don’t you really understand my good intentions?”

Li Tianyi & Mei Tian Sha Zi: ??

Good intentions?

Li Yehan’s good intentions?

They really had no clue at all!

Li Yehan continued, “Grandfather had the incident at your house, you come over frequently, yet you don’t even see him. If Grandfather has any sudden problem, the police will suspect you first!”

Mei Tian Sha Zi & Li Tianyi: “…”

“Second Uncle, Second Aunt, if you want to see Grandfather, I can let you see him. But you’ll have to bear the consequences, okay?”

Suddenly, Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi didn’t feel that eager to see the old master anymore.

Li Yehan forced them into a corner, preventing them from meeting Old Mr. Li, and blocking them from carrying out their plans.

Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi’s emotions were like a roller coaster, fluctuating wildly, leaving them unable to stay calm.

Li Yehan watched the two of them, his scarlet lips curved into a charming arc.

“If you want to see him today, shall I take you in?” Li Yehan asked again.

Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi were furious, their emotions surging inside them.

But they hid their emotions very well on their faces.

Li Tianyi replied, “Let’s go, we came here just to see your grandfather, how can we leave without seeing him?”

Mei Tian Sha Zi also spoke with a smile, “Of course, we definitely want to see him.”

Li Tianyi and Mei Tian Sha Zi entered the intensive care unit together to visit Old Mr. Li.

Nan Qiao greeted them and had already turned off the children’s songs to prevent Li Tianyi and Mei Tian Sha Zi from noticing anything unusual.

After a business-like conversation, Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi kept a close eye on every move Old Mr. Li made, fearing they might miss something crucial.

Li Tianyi was extremely grief-stricken, looking particularly miserable: “Dad, wake up. As long as you wake up, you can prove my innocence. Dad, when will you wake up?”

Li Yehan and Nan Qiao stood by, quietly watching Li Tianyi speak (perform), without adding a single word.

Li Tianyi suddenly felt a bit awkward, as if he were a monkey performing for Li Yehan and Nan Qiao.

Li Tianyi reined in his emotions, his face betraying a hint of awkwardness before quickly returning to normal.

“Ye Han, when will your grandfather wake up? If this hospital’s medical skills aren’t good enough, perhaps we should transfer your grandfather to another hospital, right? His health should be our top priority, don’t you think?”

Li Yehan calmly expressed, “I’ve consulted the doctors, and keeping Grandfather in this hospital is the best choice.”

Li Tianyi was stifled, his suggestion wasn’t adopted.

With differing opinions, Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi had to endure being closely watched by Li Yehan and Nan Qiao during their visit with Old Mr. Li, unable to do anything, and eventually they left in frustration.

…

Once in the car, Mei Tian Sha Zi and Li Tianyi fully expressed their emotions.

“I didn’t know the Li Family was under his, Li Yehan’s, control. Old Mr. Li brought in Li Xiao who seems like thin air, only managing the old master’s assets, and hasn’t attacked Li Yehan at all.” Li Tianyi said coldly.

He thought Li Xiao would be an enemy of Li Yehan, never expecting Li Xiao to be a useless showpiece.

“Li Xiao just returned, naturally he can’t make any drastic changes right away; he needs to observe and then make wise decisions,” Mei Tian Sha Zi analyzed, slightly calming Li Tianyi’s emotions.

“I’ll take you home first,” Li Tianyi said.

“You won’t join me going back?”

“I still have business to attend to, I won’t have time to be with you tonight, and I’ll be back late, can’t join you for dinner, you have dinner with Ningning and Cheng Yan.” Li Tianyi said as he looked for his car keys, seemingly trying to hide an unnatural expression.

Mei Tian Sha Zi’s eyes dimmed, she softly murmured a response.

It seemed like they were an unspoken understanding of a couple sharing a duty-bound relationship, pretending to know nothing about certain things.

…

Nan Qiao instructed the bodyguards, in their spare time, to let the old master listen to children’s songs and stories interchangeably, aiming to stimulate the old master, hoping he’d wake up for the sake of his great-grandchild.

Having given her instructions, Nan Qiao and Li Yehan left the hospital together.

Li Yehan had a lot of work to handle, and needed to make a trip back.

Nan Qiao knew that Li Yehan couldn’t possibly follow her every hour of the day; she also wanted a chance to separate from him to do what she wished to do.

Seizing the chance, Nan Qiao reluctantly bid farewell to Li Yehan and got into the car heading to see Tang Helin.

The driver took Nan Qiao to the gate of Tang Helin’s villa and waited outside.

“Master.” Nan Qiao entered the password to enter, changing her shoes as she called out.

Tang Helin walked out from the kitchen wearing an apron, startling Nan Qiao since it was her first time seeing the cooking Tang Helin, a stark contrast to his previous image.

“Master, are you in love?”

Tang Helin: “…”

“Silly girl, Master is halfway into the grave, why would I be looking for a partner? Not looking for a partner, being alone is quite nice too. At my age, a partner would be a burden. I’m just cooking some soup for you to drink.”

Nan Qiao was deeply touched, her master had cared for her for ten unwavering years.

So, was the master hiding something from her too?

“Qiaoqiao, don’t look at me so sentimentally, you’re making me confused. You came just in time, sit down, I’ll get you some soup.”

The little old man happily walked into the kitchen, and Nan Qiao sat on a chair, waiting to drink soup.

Soon, Tang Helin came over with rib lotus root soup and some savory pastry.

“Try this, Qiaoqiao.”

Nan Qiao drank the soup and ate the meat, thoroughly enjoying it, while Tang Helin’s eyes narrowed into crescents in delight.

“It’s delicious, Master, you have a talent for cooking,” Nan Qiao praised.

Tang Helin’s face lit up with a smile, thoroughly savoring Nan Qiao’s compliments.

“If it’s good, drink more, don’t always just drink soup, eat more meat. Qiaoqiao, you’re too thin, eat more to gain weight.”

Obediently, Nan Qiao ate five pieces of rib meat and the lotus root.

She only stopped eating when she couldn’t eat anymore.

Leaning back in her chair, Nan Qiao’s watery eyes fixated on Tang Helin, she smiled slightly, “Master, do you think I’ll be able to give birth to the child in my belly safely?”

Tang Helin: “!!”

Tang Helin was taken aback, thoroughly frightened.

“Silly child, don’t talk nonsense! Of course, you’ll safely give birth to the child, everything will go smoothly, you’ll be safe and healthy!”

Tang Helin, frightened, used a chiding tone, “Qiaoqiao, why are you talking nonsense? Quickly, spit it out, get rid of the bad words.”

Nan Qiao spat a few times and earnestly asked, “Master, actually you knew from the start that my physical condition is unlike others, right?”
