Chu Shixiong let out a cold snort. He stood up, "I don't care what you think, but if there's any mistake between Qiao An and the child in her stomach, you are the only one who can answer!"

After waiting for half a night, Chu Shixiong was tired and did not have the energy to argue with Zhu Jiangci.

The matter of the two of them being a couple was not something that could be resolved overnight, so Zhu Jiangci stood up and prepared to leave.

Before he left, he heard Zhu Jiangci's words, "Regarding Su Qiao An's matter, since I have agreed to it, I will settle it well, there is no need for Chairman to worry."

Chu Shixiong turned around and glanced at him. Although this son of his was stubborn by nature, Chu Shixiong was still willing to believe that he would keep his promise.

Since Zhu Jiangci dared to make a promise, it meant that he had already planned for it.

Now that Qiao An is already pregnant, are you still going to insist on getting a divorce and marrying Jiang Kerou into your family? Chu Shixiong said, "Jiang Yan, you have always been a smart and decisive kid. I hope you won't be a fool when it comes to this kind of thing."

If he really married that woman Jiang Kerou and entered the door, he would really have no idea what this family would look like.

Since the two of them weren't married yet, the Jiang family had already started using the name of Chu Family to commit evil acts outside.

Wasn't he only closing his eyes because of Zhu Jiangci?

Zhu Jiangci did not react. Instead, he gave a deep sigh of disappointment and left.

It all depended on him who was more important.

Zhu Jiangci raised his eyes and looked at the stairs, the depths of his eyes dark as ink, dark and gloomy.

Su Qiao An drank the medicine and slept soundly for an entire night. Only, her dreams were not peaceful either.

When she came to, she felt dizzy.

"Young Mistress, don't move recklessly!" Qiao Er brought up the breakfast, and coincidentally saw that Su Qiao An was already awake. She placed the tray on the bedside table to stop Su Qiao An from getting up, and advised: "The doctor said to have you rest properly, I saw you lying down and don't get up."

Su Qiao An looked at the breakfast that she had brought over and laughed bitterly, "If I don't get up, why would I eat breakfast?"

Qiao Er thought for a while, then helped Su Qiao An up and placed a pillow behind her back to prevent her from being uncomfortable.

"Young Mistress, you scared me to death last night." She saw that Su Qiao An's face was as white as a ghost's, the bed was stained with blood, she had been on tenterhooks ever since, luckily Steward Song had arranged for a doctor to check on Young Mistress in time, stabilizing her condition.

Qiao Er grumbled, "Oh you, don't go out! It's only been a short trip and I've almost lost my life! "

She had even heard that the Young Mistress had followed them to the construction site and was almost smashed into pieces. The doctor had also said that the reason for the incident was because the emotional ups and downs were too intense, and her heart was agitated because of it. Qiao Er thought about everything and understood that the reason for the incident that happened to the Young Mistress was because she was panicking too much.

Su Yun pursed his lips and laughed, but did not say anything.

"Wait a moment, I'll go get some water to wash you up." The reason why Qiao Er didn't let her walk out of the bed was because he wanted his Young Mistress to rest and try to keep her calm.

Qiao Er went to the bathroom to get water while Su Qiao An sat on the bed in a daze.

Hearing movement, Su Yun's gaze turned towards the door, upon seeing the man at the entrance, he was startled.

He had changed into his house clothes, the simple design actually gave off a noble aura with a clear arrogance. Su Qiao An even felt that it was a pity that Zhu Jiangci's temperament and figure were not suitable to be a model.

"Why are you here …" Usually at this point, wouldn't Zhu Jiangci be in the company? Moreover, ever since he had brought Jiang Kerou back, he had not been here again. He would occasionally return when he was free, and would also go directly to Jiang Kerou's place.

"Where do I go? Do you have to agree?" Zhu Jiangci entered the house.

Su Qiao An calmly looked at him, "You will do whatever you want, and you won't need to ask anyone else."

Coincidentally, Qiao Er came out with a water basin. Seeing Zhu Jiangci, she respectfully called out to him, "Young Master," and brought the water basin to the side of his bed.

Just as she was about to twist the towel, she heard Zhu Jiangci say, "Qiao Er, you go out first."

"But …" Qiao Er was in a difficult situation, the old master had instructed her to take good care of Young Mistress.

Zhu Jiangci frowned impatiently, "What? Are you afraid that I will hurt your master? "Get out."

After Qiao Er placed the things down, he glanced at Su Yun, and seeing that she had no objections, he left the room.

Only the two of them were left in the room.

Su Qiao An asked, "If there's anything you want to say, just say it."

Zhu Jiangci raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his mouth hooked into a smile that had an unknown meaning, causing Su Qiao An to look extremely depressed, "Didn't you intentionally send Qiao Er away like this because you have something to tell me?"

"What a coincidence, I really have nothing to tell you." Zhu Jiangci sat on the side of the bed.

Su Qiao An's eyes froze as she stared blankly at him as he twisted the towel.

When the warm and soft towel fell on her forehead, she was shocked, subconsciously dodging as she stared at Zhu Jiangci.

"The old man told me to take good care of you. If you want to be unreasonable, it's your business. Don't implicate me in this." Zhu Jiangci's voice was cold, she used one hand to pull Su Qiao An's arm and brought him closer to her.

Su Qiao An watched him wipe his face gently without batting an eyelid. His hands were really pretty, long and well-proportioned, with distinct joints.

Being too close to her, she saw her own shadow clearly etched into the pair of deep eyes. She couldn't help but feel a pang at the tip of her nose.

Her feelings for him were humble to the point that even if she had no other feelings for him, as long as he had her in his eyes, even if it was just for a moment, she would be satisfied.

Su Qiao An suddenly thought back to the life and death battle that she had faced yesterday, and how she had thought that the person who had appeared at that time was Zhu Jiangci.

Just like when Hanjiang River was kidnapped, she was afraid that she would die. While her consciousness was muddled, the only person she could think of was the one that was the least likely to appear.

With his eyes filled with tears, Su Yun lowered his gaze and hid his eyes that were gradually beginning to flood with tears.

She grabbed the towel herself and said hoarsely, "I'll do it myself."

Zhu Jiangci released his hand, and the two of their fingertips touched each other and then left.

Su Yun did not even glance at him. He silently washed up and ate in silence.

Stirring the hot porridge in her bowl, she said, "You don't have to stay here and guard me. Just do whatever you have to do!"

"Su Qiao An, I said before that I do not like women who are too unreasonable." Zhu Jiangci's eyes were dark and cold, "I don't need you to remind me what to do."

Su Qiao An bitterly lowered his head to drink the porridge, and suddenly heard him say, "What is your relationship with Mo Yunlang? From what I see, he doesn't seem to be concerned about you like an ordinary friend. Su Qiao An, you are lying. "
