Chapter 29

Outside the car window, heavy rain poured down from the roof and surrounded the car. It was also the sound of the heavy rain that covered the intense situation in the car…

Until… Someone held an umbrella and knocked on the car window.

Fortunately, she could not see the inside of the car clearly from the outside. Otherwise, Lin Wanli felt that she would want to find a place to hide. Because she was sitting on Huo Jiuxiao’s body, her hands still grabbing his shirt collar. Her head was pressed against his chin, and her lips… Her gaze swept past his Adam’s apple.

“Your subordinate looks like she doesn’t want to live.” The heated atmosphere suddenly came to an abrupt end, and Huo Jiuxiao commented unhappily.

“She must have a problem. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so insensible.” Lin Wanli retreated to her seat and tidied up her red dress. Fortunately, she was not wearing silk today. Otherwise, she would have been rubbed into a mess.

“I’ll go down first.”

Lin Wanli thought about it and felt that he needed time to calm down.

Then, she pushed open the car door and got under the black umbrella Yan Qiu was holding.

“Youyou is having a fever. She even coughed a few times just now.”

“Hurry. Let’s go” When she heard that it was about Youyou, she quickened her pace and rushed home.

In the children’s room on the second floor, Youyou was crying her heart out with a red nose and eyes. Lin Wanli immediately washed her hands and changed her clothes. Then, she hugged Youyou in her arms. “Baby, it’s Mommy.”

Youyou was still crying and sobbing.

“Yan Qiu, go get the thermometer, fever patch, and fever medicine, and prepare the bathwater for Youyou.”

…

Therefore, when Huo Jiuxiao returned to the villa after calming down, he saw Youyou, who had just calmed down, lying on Lin Wanli’s shoulder.

“Her fever is still okay. I’ll stay here and watch her. Yan Qiu, go and rest. It’s been a long day.”

“President Lin, you still have a video conference with Taixi tomorrow morning.”

“It’s fine.” Lin Wanli gave her a smile, signaling her to be at ease. “This is my daughter. If I can’t even take care of her when she’s sick, what kind of mother am I? Go to sleep. When her fever subsides, come and replace me early.”

“Alright then, President Lin.” After Yan Qiu finished speaking, she went into the children’s room.

From that moment on, Lin Wanli began to take care of her for eight hours without sleeping. Youyou’s body was not weak, but she was afraid of heat. Of all things, Jinchuan had to have a high temperature.

That night, Youyou repeatedly cried and had a fever. The room was filled with Lin Wanli’s footsteps as she coaxed the child. When the sky began to turn blue, Yoyo finally fell asleep. Only then did Lin Wanli patiently put the child down.

Huo Jiuxiao had appeared outside the door more than ten times.

In his impression, a child’s illness should be accompanied by a parent’s argument or a mother’s impatient shouting. At least, that was always the case in the Huo Family.

But with her… Not even a trace of grievance appeared.

She was clearly the villain in the Lin Family last night, but in front of the people she really cared about, she always seemed to have endless patience. Whether it was him or Youyou, she never showed an impatient expression.

She looked like a bottomless pit of emotions as if she could tolerate anything.

…

It was not that Lin Wanli was not sleepy, but she still waited for Yan Qiu to wake up. She watched Youyou finish her milk before lying on the child’s bed and closing her eyes.

At this moment, Huo Jiuxiao pushed open the door and carried Lin Wanli into his arms under Yan Qiu’s surprised gaze. He then walked back to his room.

Lin Wanli did not sleep, and he did not sleep either.

However, he did not know how to be involved in their lives, and he did not have the concept of family in his heart.

However, the person lying on the bed at this moment was his woman, and the small child, who was sick last night, was of his blood.

That feeling was very strange. It was as if he and Lin Wanli were connected physically and mentally.

…

Ye Zhenzhen cried at home for half the night after the banquet. She cried until Mother Ye was really annoyed, so she dragged her into the bathroom. “Take a good look at your current state. Lin Wanli was just making a scene and you can’t even withstand a single blow. You really disappoint me.”

“You can’t beat her?”
