In the old house, Xia Wan was quietly reading a book. She, who was filled with anticipation to become a mother, had an even gentler temperament, and her aura was no longer as sharp as it was in the past.
Little Grass swept the courtyard clean, and walked to Xia Wan's side while blushing, as if she was a little embarrassed, "Um, big sister, can I go out for a bit?"
Xia Wan raised her head, and looked at Little Grass with warm eyes, as she said with amusement: "Of course you can, do you have a date?"
Little Grass's face was even redder, as if bright pomegranate juice would flow out if she pinched it. "Big sis is teasing me again with the little grass. Mister paid me yesterday, so I want to send some over to my family."
Nodding, Xia Wan suggested: "If you want to transfer money, you don't have to go to the bank specifically. You can just use your phone."
Scratching his head, Little Grass shyly explained, "Big sister, I can use my phone, but my mother can't. So, big sister, you should obediently stay at home for a while. You can't play on the computer and play on the electric motor."
didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he felt that Little Grass was controlling him like a child, "Okay, okay, you can rest assured."
After Little Grass left, Xia Wan continued to read. Because she was thirsty, she wanted to go to the kitchen to get a cup of water.
Perhaps the contents of the book were too attractive, but when she got up and went to the kitchen, she was still holding the book in one hand.
Without paying attention to his feet, Xia Wan accidentally tripped over the vacuum cleaner placed at the entrance of the kitchen.
This fall was not light. She grimaced in pain, and her elbow was scratched.
As the saying goes, a person who gets pregnant is a fool for three years. It took Xia Wan a while to react, she was still carrying a baby, upon that fall, she was afraid that she would hurt the child.
Xia Wan half sprawled on the ground, and didn't dare to get up for a long time.
She focused all her attention on her lower abdomen and lower body, trying to detect any changes in her body.
After feeling nothing out of the ordinary, she let out a light breath, glad that she didn't seem to be in any serious trouble.
At the same time, she also reflected and blamed herself, cursing herself for walking while reading. If Tang Shaofeng were to know about this, she would probably have less fun.
Just as Xia Wan was about to stand up, her lower abdomen suddenly twitched.
Just such a short moment of change caused her face to become deathly pale, and her eyes to be filled with astonishment. She no longer dared to move.
Looking around, no one could help her. Xia Wan was extremely anxious, she muttered: "What if something happens to the child?!"
Regret, helplessness, layer after layer of attacks came out, like waves striking at Xia Wan's currently weak mental state.
"Xia Wan!"
A cry of surprise came from the door, causing Xia Wan to look over with hope. However, when she saw that it was Xiao Muting, she wanted to cry: It's him again, why is he here again?
Xia Wan was still lying on the ground, without saying a word, she threw down the gift and ran towards her.
"What's going on? Did you fall? Where's that fierce little grass? "
Xia Wan pursed her lips, thinking that no one would come to her help, she could only rely on Xiao Muting to help her, and replied honestly: "Xiao Yao went to send some money back to my house. I just tripped over a vacuum cleaner, my stomach felt a bit uncomfortable, and I don't know if I hurt my child … …"
Hearing Xia Wan's worried narration, Xiao Muting's brows sunk. Without the other party's consent, she carried Xia Wan.
Caught off guard, Xia Wan could not help but let out a low exclaim, "What are you doing?"
"I'll send you to the hospital for a checkup." Xiao Muting replied as if it was obvious, his expression solemn and solemn.
Hearing that, Xia Wan felt helpless, she should have kept her distance from Xiao Muting.
However, things had gotten out of hand and she had no choice. Since Xiao Muting came at a coincidental time, she could only nod and thank him.
After being put into the carriage by Xiao Muting, the fear in Xia Wan's heart had been pacified.
She secretly glanced at the person beside her and saw the nervousness on his face. The emotions in her heart became complicated: Xiao Muting, you aren't as annoying as I thought.
Maybe because the two of them did not speak during the journey and the atmosphere was extremely weird, Xia Wan was the first to break the silence, "Hey, why did you come to my house again?"
"Someone else gave me some expensive supplements that I have no use for, so I brought them over to you by the way." There were no ripples in Xiao Muting's eyes, as if he was narrating a very ordinary matter.
However, Xia Wan slowly felt that she seemed to be more and more concerned about her.
And their current relationship wasn't suitable for them to be so concerned about each other.
Thus, she lowered her eyes and did not say anything. Her lips were tightly pursed, and her eyes were filled with worry.
In Tang Shaofeng's office in the Tang Clan Headquarters, Tang Shaofeng had a gloomy expression, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Just now, Ye Tong had been scolded by him, but the other party's vivid provocation still lingered in his mind.
While he was hesitating about whether he should go home and take a look, he kept telling himself to believe in Xia Wan. He had never heard Xia Wan mention Xiao Muting visiting his house these past few days, which meant that these things were all fake.
Knocking his fingers on the desk, Tang Shaofeng was in no mood for official business, and was unable to concentrate.
He struggled in his heart and continued to ponder: If Ye Tong was making it up, what is the other party's goal?
Without coming to a conclusion, Tang Shaofeng finally got up and picked up the car keys, ready to go home.
Although he trusted Xia Wan from the bottom of his heart, Ye Tong's words made him uneasy. Even if it was to calm him down, he still had to make a trip back.
After returning home, Tang Shaofeng had thought that Xia Wan would be very happy to welcome him, but what made him even more dumbstruck was that there was no one at home.
"Grass?" Tang Shaofeng suspiciously called out Xiao Zhi's name, but no one around him responded.
Very sullenly, Tang Shaofeng went upstairs to look for someone, but still failed to find anything.
He really couldn't understand why Xia Wan and Little Grass couldn't stay at home and would go out to do something. Then, Tang Shaofeng returned to the sofa in the living room gloomily.
Thinking that the master and servant had gone for a walk, Tang Shaofeng did not think much of it, and waited at home.
He inadvertently glanced at the items placed under the tea table, which caught his attention.
Tang Shaofeng raised his eyebrows slightly, and then took out the accessories Xiao Muting had given him as well as his baby clothes.
After pondering for a long time, when Tang Shaofeng took out the infant's clothes, he brought out the small ticket that Xiao Muting had forgotten about.
Tang Shaofeng was stunned for a while as he watched Xiao Muting sign his name like a dragon and dancing phoenix.
After the hospital's inspection, the baby in Xia Wan's stomach was fine, so Xiao Muting insisted on sending Xia Wan back.
Xia Wan tried to shirk all responsibility, but could not suppress her enthusiasm.
The two of them got off the car together and met Tang Shaofeng, who was walking out from the house.
Tang Shaofeng stared coldly at Xiao Muting, but Xia Wan remained rooted to the ground with a stiff expression.
After realising that Tang Shaofeng was in a confrontation with Xiao Muting, he quickly explained, "I accidentally tripped just now, and coincidentally, Xiao Muting came to visit me at home, so I invited him to send me to the hospital."
Hearing that, Tang Shaofeng abandoned Xiao Muting for the time being. He anxiously walked to Xia Wan's side, and after a quick inspection, his eyes became sullen: "How did you fall for such a good reason? Where's Little Grass? "
Feeling Tang Shaofeng's anger, Xia Wan felt very guilty.
She should have told him that Xiao Muting had been visiting the house for the past few days, but she didn't.
"Little Grass went to wire money to our family. Don't blame her, I agreed to let her go."
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Tang Shaofeng glanced at Xiao Muting, and then pulled Xia Wan into the house, leaving Xiao Muting, the guest, to dry in the courtyard.
Biting her lips, Xia Wan sat properly on the sofa with Tang Shaofeng pressed down and focused on the things that were flipped over on the table, she immediately grabbed onto her, "Tang Shaofeng, there's nothing between Xiao Muting and I, these things were indeed sent over by him, I don't want them, he just threw them in the dustbin. I told Little Grass to put it away and prepare to return it to him when the time comes. "
Tang Shaofeng's brows gradually relaxed as he comforted his with a heavy voice: "I believe in you."
With a sigh of relief, Xia Wan continued, "Also, in the past few days, you have been back too late. I had originally wanted to tell you, but I haven't been able to find an opportunity. I don't know what's going on with Xiao Muting these days, he often came over to visit for a while, and then left after a short while, and even brought presents for his child. "
Rubbing Xia Wan's hair, Tang Shaofeng forced a smile, "I understand."
After adjusting his suit, Tang Shaofeng warned, "Wait for Xiao Zhi to return home, I have something to discuss with him."
Xia Wan knew that the "he" Tang Shaofeng spoke of was Xiao Muting, so it was not good to stop her, nor was it good to say anything more. She could only silently nod her head.
Seeing that, Tang Shaofeng turned around, the warmth in his eyes instantly disappearing, replacing it was brutality and sharpness.
Walking out of the courtyard, and seeing that Xiao Muting still had not left, Tang Shaofeng got into his car, "Let's go, let's find a place to talk."
Hearing that Tang Shaofeng's tone was very bad, Xiao Muting also did not feel any fear, and only silently brought the other party to leave the old dwelling.
After walking past a piece of barren land, Tang Shaofeng grinned. With a cold gaze, he said, "Let's do it here."
Xiao Muting stepped on the brakes, and the two of them walked down.
Standing still, he watched as Xiao Muting walked towards him. Without saying a word, Tang Shaofeng raised his fist and punched Xiao Muting in the face.
As if expecting that Tang Shaofeng would hit him, he did not get angry nor did he think about it. He only wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
But Tang Shaofeng had not calmed down, he grabbed the other party's neck, and questioned him with scarlet eyes: "Xiao Muting, Xia Wan is my wife now!"
Without wasting any words, Tang Shaofeng used a short and forceful declaration to curse Xiao Muting for not doing what he should have done.
Perhaps it was because Tang Shaofeng was both a benefactor and a friend, that caused Xiao Muting to receive such a punch, but when Xia Wan was mentioned, he immediately pushed the other party's hand away.
Xiao Muting laughed coldly, and his eyes were filled with grief, "Xiao Feng, are you reprimanding me for letting you down? Yes, Xia Wan is indeed your wife, but don't forget, you stole her from my hands! "
Hearing that, Tang Shaofeng laughed coldly, "Xiao Muting, the person who did not cherish her at that time was you! What? Now you regret it? "
Xiao Muting calmly looked back at his bloodshot eyes, but Xiao Muting did not deny it, "Right, I regret it!"
Before Xiao Muting even finished speaking, he took another solid punch at Tang Shaofeng.
This punch caused him to cough out a nosebleed as the color of the punch matched the setting sun.
