Noon.
Tong Huaer walked through the garden to a door and asked the bodyguard standing at the door, "Is young master Situ there?"
"Young lady, young master went out this morning and hasn't come back yet." The bodyguard said respectfully.
"Out again?"
Tong Huaer frowned.
Ever since he came back, Situ Wei had become very busy. There were several times when she had something to ask him, but he was not there.
"Well, I'll go back first. If he comes back, let me know."
Tong Huaer said.
"Yes, little miss."
Looking at the closed door, Tong Huaer turned around and walked in the direction he had come. At that moment, he suddenly heard a muffled cough coming from the room. He stopped and turned to look at the door.
Situ Wei is in the room?
Tong Huaer frowned and walked towards the door. Suddenly, a shadow flashed in front of her and the bodyguard blocked her, "Little miss..."
"You lied to me. Situ Wei is clearly in the room!" Tong Huaer interrupted her coldly.
"This..." The bodyguard looked at her with embarrassment.
Tong Huaer frowned and said, "Do you want to move, or do I need someone to take you away and I'll go back in?"
She was sure that the coughing was not a hallucination, and she was just asking Situ Wei for advice. It was strange that the bodyguard had kept her from seeing Situ Wei.
Tong Huaer took off the shelf of miss Dongfangjia, and the bodyguard immediately stepped aside, not daring to stop her.
Glancing at the bodyguard, she pushed the door open and saw Situ Wei sitting on the sofa with one hand clenched into a fist on his lips and his shoulders heaving with forbearance.
"Situ Wei!" Tong Huaer walked in quickly and frowned at him, "Are you sick?"
"Cough, cough, cough..." Situ Wei let out a suppressed cough and waved at her, indicating that she was fine.
His face was flushed, obviously due to deliberate repression. Tong Huaer frowned at him and said, "Cough if you want. What are you holding back for? Has the doctor come to see you?"
"I'm fine." Situ Wei waved his hand and said, "Don't alarm the doctor. You'll be fine after a rest."
So he didn't inform the doctor at all. Tong Huaer gave him a blank look and said, "I've never heard of a cough that can be cured. Wait, I'll call the doctor now!"
As she spoke, she stood up and walked towards the door.
"No!" Situ wei grabbed her arm with his big hand and released it the next second as if it were electrocuted. He turned his head to the other side and said, "Don't go! I don't want anyone else to know."
"Why?" Tong Huaer frowned doubtfully.
Situ Wei was not a grandmother. He had to keep his health a secret. Besides, what he had was not a serious illness. It was just a cough. How could he hide it so tightly?
"You just came back, and there are still a lot of things to deal with. If I were sick now, there would be more trouble." Situ Wei explained with an indifferent expression, "Don't worry, I'm really fine."
"Because you still need you now, you need to get better. Besides, I don't believe they can turn the world upside down! No matter what, you can't joke about your health!"
After Tong Huaer finished speaking, he didn't care what Situ wei's reaction was. He went directly to the door and asked the bodyguard to inform Ryan to come over.
Situ wei frowned and looked at her back, a few painful helplessness flashing in her eyes.
She still cared about him.
If she knew what he had done to her, would she care so much about him?
Ten minutes later, Ryan rushed over to check on Situ Wei.
"What's wrong with him?" Tong Huaer stood aside and asked.
"Little miss, don't worry too much. Young master Situ Wei just had a cold and coughed. He'll be fine after taking the medicine for a few days." Ryan said after checking.
"That's good."
Knowing that Situ Wei was fine, Tong Huaer also breathed a sigh of relief, paused, and looked at Situ wei and said, "You will be well recuperating in the next few days. Forget about the company. If there is anything you need to deal with, let them send it to you."
"Okay."
Situ wei lowered her eyes and answered softly.
Tong Huaer sighed and was about to speak when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside. Then Uncle tan came in and looked at her anxiously, "Little miss, please go to the hall."
"What happened?"
Tong Huaer asked.
If something hadn't happened, Uncle tan wouldn't have come to see her in person.
"Little miss, the Zongjia elders are in the lobby, saying they want to see you for... Madam and Mr. Duosuo."
Situ Wei was not an outsider, and Uncle tan had nothing to hide from here.
Because of grandma and Teacher Duosuo...
Tong Huaer narrowed his eyes and a cold smile appeared on his lips. It seemed that the time had come. They had only been back for half a month, and some of them had already lost their patience.
"Well, since you want to see me, I'll go and see them."
Tong Huaer said.
"I'll go with you... Cough..." Situ Wei also stood up, his handsome face slightly frowning.
Tong Huaer glanced at him and shook his head, "Forget it. You should rest in your room. Don't worry. I can deal with them."
"How is that possible?" Situ Wei disagreed, "The Zongjia elders, after all, you have been with them for too short a time and have no feelings for each other. Let me talk to them!"
"Do you think this is something that can be explained by love?" Tong Huaer gave a cold laugh, paused, and said, "Don't worry. I've already figured out how to deal with them. I'm waiting for them to come to me! It's just right to be delivered to the door now! Besides, I have to face them alone. You can't always be in front of me."
I can't just stand in front of her...
Situ Wei shuddered imperceptibly, and a few complex emotions flashed past his eyes. His thin lips were pursed and he did not speak.
Tong Huaer did not notice the change in his mood. He stood up and walked towards the door, saying, "Take good care of young master Situ."
Soon, her figure disappeared at the door.
Situ Wei sat on the sofa. The sun shone in through the window and landed on his handsome face, leaving a thin, cold light.
"Think about it. When I first met Zong Beili, I knew that he had identified the young lady and that man named Lan Shaoyan was not an easy man. Let's not talk about anything else, our little miss's ability to provoke peach blossoms has been passed down by the Dongfangjia." Ryan sighed and prepared the medicine.
The pain in his heart was unbearable. Situ Wei slowly closed his eyes. His thick eyelashes trembled and his thin lips gave out a cold breath, "Talk behind your back about master Dongfang. Do you know what family rules say?"
"...
Ryan shrugged his shoulders and shut his mouth knowingly. When he secretly decided to insert the needle, he had to use more force.
