"Calm down, Second!" Shen Zhengxin scolded his son. "You don't look like a leader at all!"
"Dad! My older brother has suffered so much outside for so many years. How can you only say something today?"
"Yeah, Dad, Brother Gu's situation in our unit is really concerning. Shen Jingyu, that child, is truly pitiful."
"What good does it do to talk about that now? Do you think I want my son to suffer out there? It's not like he wants to come see us!"
"And then there's his wife! That delicate girl raised like a boy since childhood—what has she turned into now?"
"Shen Huai can't stand seeing him disfigured; he feels too ashamed to face us."
"In truth, they are left with just the two of them in that place! To live so resiliently, I must say I'm impressed!"
"Jingyu, it seems the remaining feelings will have to be passed on to you. This is unrelated to the mission. Find some time to visit them."
Shen Jingyu fell silent for a moment before speaking up, "Are you sure this really has nothing to do with the mission?"
Shen Zhengxin replied, "You really can't hide anything from you! I'm not lying."
Gu Zheng could tell from his father-in-law's expression that this was a trap that hadn't worked!
No matter what mission there was, it wouldn't involve those two being stationed there!
"I'll make arrangements and find time to go! We need to send someone suitable over. Su Xing's situation—can't Du's Dad come take a look?"
Shen Jingyu remarked, "This is a trap of your own making; even your granddaughter-in-law has been dragged into it."
The Shen family's life became lively for a few days as everyone got busy.
Su Xing spent all day chatting in the group with her partners: "I don’t know when I’ll be able to work again. You two better not embezzle the company’s assets! Remember to save some money for your little nephew; he needs to be raised!"
Mu Beiyao jumped up from his chair, "What? You're pregnant?"
Lu Xiangyi dashed over from the office, "She's pregnant? With her health condition, how could this even happen?"
"Forget about work; let’s go see her!" Mu Beiyao grabbed his car keys and left.
Neither of them had ever been to Shen Mansion before and were stopped outside.
"Wow! I didn’t expect President Shen’s place to be so spacious! Not only is it magnificent and imposing, but it also feels mysterious and noble!"
"Isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to visit unannounced?" Lu Xiangyi's question reminded Mu Beiyao. He began messaging Su Xing while pondering this issue.
Meanwhile, Lu Xiangyi tried calling Rong Xigu but couldn't get through. He asked Brother Han if they had come at the wrong time.
Lu Xiangyi asked, "Is your sister-in-law here too?"
After receiving a positive answer from Lu Xiangyi, Lu Xiangyi directly told her sister, "Once you go in, you two should bring the things from the trunk inside."
Lu Xiangyi replied, "You even prepared this?"
When Su Xing contacted them from inside, and the gatekeeper let them in, Mu Beiyao suddenly remembered, "Your brother said he would bring these things to see my parents. We were so busy that we hadn’t had the chance to go yet. Now it’s just perfect!"
"Oh dear, thankfully my brother is so foresighted. Otherwise, our sudden visit would have seemed so abrupt!" Sister Xing wasn’t there, but after all, they still had many elders present. It would have made us look quite out of place.
Mu Beiyao said, "I won’t help your brother show off in front of me anymore, little sister-in-law."
Lu Xiangyi teased, "So does that mean you acknowledge it? He thought it would be hard for that gloomy guy to get married!"
Who would have thought he would secure this big sister so quickly?
Mu Beiyao replied speechlessly, "Even if I don’t acknowledge it, your brother can still marry me. Do you believe that?"
As the two chatted, they drove up to the entrance. Su Xing was standing at the door wearing a very thick furry coat, waiting for them.
He looked incredibly weak! The two friends immediately felt their eyes welling up as they carried their things, looking as if they could barely move.
The butler came out to help them carry their things inside and then left space for the three of them.
"Sister Xing! How come you’ve become so haggard after just a few days?" Lu Xiangyi said sadly, pursing her lips.
Bao Er didn’t look precious at all; Mu Beiyao felt a pang of heartache.
But Su Xing still smiled brightly, "Whether I look precious or not isn’t determined by my complexion. I’m being taken care of now. When one is sick, there’s always a recovery process."
"It’s a bit cold; let’s all go inside! We can chat in our room!" Su Xing had realized over these past few days that as long as he treated this place like home, there was nothing uncomfortable about it.
The two elders were living too quietly; in fact, they actually hoped for a bit more liveliness.
There was a small reception room in the mansion where Su Xing directly entertained his two friends.
Lu Xiangyi was no stranger to various social situations, but she was still captivated by the unique design style of this place.
It had classical designs blended with modern styles; this decor would have seemed avant-garde in the past and high-end and elegant in the present!
"Sister, you married the right person! Living here truly is something to cherish every day!"
After marveling at everything around her, Lu Xiangyi finally sat down and asked, "When do you think your health will recover?"
"Every day is a struggle. If I can’t hold on until the baby is born or if I’m not around after the baby arrives, will you help take care of him?"
Su Xing's words struck Mu Beiyao like a bolt from the blue, bringing her to tears in an instant.
"What nonsense are you talking about? An aunt can never compare to a mother! You should take care of your own child! And what about your own mother? And your beloved younger brother? How could we possibly manage all of that for you? Most importantly, you know Shen Jingyu; if you were to die, he would dare to follow you into death. Do you really believe that?"
Su Xing forced a bitter smile. "Of course I believe it! Isn’t it just that I hope he can have more family before my time comes? That way, if I really am gone, he won’t be left without a reason to live."
Lu Xiangyi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "How naive! The companionship between lovers cannot be replaced by anyone else. You need to take care of yourself! No matter the circumstances, you must persevere! We will figure something out for you!"
"I’ve traveled so much over the years," she continued, "and I’ve met many talented individuals. I’ll gather them all; there must be someone who can solve your problems!"
Little Princess always had such a childish perspective, but I firmly believe that life has its own destiny. Taking this step today is simply fate's arrangement; it’s hard to refuse it!
Su Xing understood his body better than anyone else. Rather than lamenting and complaining, it was better to face the situation head-on. With so many capable people around him, how could they not find a way to save him? No matter what, he needed to maintain his will to survive because that was crucial!
"Give us a little more time; the hope will grow larger," Mu Beiyao thought, unable to fully empathize but determined to help him hold onto that hope.
