Mu Ning Jing saw Shen Tingxi carrying Shen Jiuyan out from afar. She was frightened and hurriedly got out of the car.
Shen Tingxi shouted at Mu Ning Jing, "Ningning, open the door."
Mu Ning Jing opened the door of the backseat. As they got closer, she saw that Shen Tingxi's face was pale and his eyes were slightly closed. He seemed to be sick. She placed her hand on the roof of the car, worried that Shen Tingxi would hit his head.
After Shen Tingxi placed Shen Jiuyan in the car, he stepped back and said to Mu Ning Jing, "Ningning, sit in the back and take care of him."
"Tingxi, let me do it?" Hu Xin 'er, who had hurried over, said.
Shen Tingxi glanced at Hu Xin 'er coldly. He didn't say anything, but his eyes said it all.
Hu Xin 'er was so anxious that her eyes were red. She looked into the car anxiously, but because of Shen Tingxi, she didn't dare to force herself into the car.
Mu Ning Jing bent over and got into the car.
Shen Jiuyan opened his eyes and said weakly, "Get … get out."
Mu Ning Jing received Shen Jiuyan's sharp gaze even though he was sick and quietly stepped out.
Shen Tingxi had already walked around the front of the car to the driver's seat. He was about to open the car door when he saw Mu Ning Jing come out again. He asked her, "What's wrong?"
"Let her go." Mu Ning Jing glanced at Hu Xin 'er as she spoke.
Shen Tingxi looked at Mu Ning Jing for two seconds, then looked into the car again. He guessed that Shen Jiuyan must have said something, but at this juncture, he couldn't quarrel with Shen Jiuyan anymore.
No matter how much he disliked Shen Jiuyan, Shen Jiuyan was still his father.
He had already angered Shen Jiuyan to this extent. He definitely couldn't let him suffer anymore. Otherwise, he would really die.
After thinking about it, Shen Tingxi nodded and instructed Huang Hong, who was standing at the side, "Send her home."
Huang Hong replied, "Yes, Young Master."
Hu Xin 'er's tears fell. She said "thank you" to Mu Ning Jing, and then bowed to Shen Tingxi before getting into the car.
Huang Hong said, "Miss Mu, please wait for a moment. I'll get the car."
Mu Ning Jing shook her head. "No need. I can take a taxi."
"Miss Mu, please don't make things difficult for me. I must do what Young Master has instructed me to do."
Mu Ning Jing nodded helplessly.
On the way, Mu Ning Jing's mind was filled with the image of Shen Tingxi carrying Shen Jiuyan out of the door.
If Shen Tingxi had been sick before, he would have been sent to the hospital since there were so many people in the manor. That meant that Shen Tingxi had fallen ill after entering the manor.
Could it be that Shen Tingxi and Shen Jiuyan had quarreled over the household register?
Mu Ning Jing couldn't sit still after returning home. She called Shen Tingxi and asked, "Is Uncle Shen all right?"
"He's still in the operating room." Shen Tingxi's tone was a little heavy.
Mu Ning Jing tightened her grip on the phone. "Did Uncle Shen get sick because we're going to get our marriage certificate …"
"Ningning, don't think too much. It has nothing to do with you."
Mu Ning Jing was silent for two seconds. "… Oh, then you take good care of Uncle Shen in the hospital."
"I'll come back when he wakes up. Be good and eat your food. Don't think too much."
"Okay."
Mu Ning Jing spent the whole day in a state of anxiety. Shen Tingxi didn't come back either. That meant that Shen Jiuyan hadn't woken up yet. Could something have happened?
Just as Mu Ning Jing was burning with anxiety, the doorbell of the villa rang. She hurriedly got up to open the door. "Tingxi, your dad …" Seeing the person at the door, she swallowed the rest of her words.
"Miss Mu, I'm here to bring you food." Dong Zai lifted the bag with the logo of Yu He Lou.
The two of them entered the house. Mu Ning Jing asked Dong Zai, "How's Uncle Shen?"
A strange look flashed across Dong Zai's eyes. Then he said in a relaxed tone, "Uncle Shen's operation was very successful. Don't worry."
Mu Ning Jing's worried heart finally settled down. "That's good."
Dong Zai placed the dishes on the table. "Miss Mu, eat. Young Master told me to stay here and watch you finish a bowl of rice before leaving."
Mu Ning Jing was speechless.
At night, Shen Tingxi called Mu Ning Jing and told her to rest early. He would be accompanying Shen Jiuyan in the hospital tonight and wouldn't be coming back.
The next day, Shen Tingxi called Mu Ning Jing to wake her up and tell her to go to work. He said that Dong Zai was waiting for her outside and had brought her breakfast.
At night, Dong Zai still picked her up from work.
It was like this for three days in a row. Mu Ning Jing felt that something was wrong. But after asking Dong Zai a few times, he said that it was fine. When she called Shen Tingxi, he also said that it was fine and told her not to worry.
How could Mu Ning Jing not worry? She went home and made a pork rib soup. She casually ate some dinner and went out with the thermos. Just as she walked out of the villa, she bumped into Dong Zai. "Miss Mu."
Mu Ning Jing looked at Dong Zai with some confusion. "Didn't you already leave? Why are you still here? "
Dong Zai's eyes flashed. "Young Master was worried about you being alone at home, so he asked me to guard you outside."
Mu Ning Jing had a bad feeling in her heart. "Are you hiding something from me?"
"No."
Mu Ning Jing looked at Dong Zai quietly.
Dong Zai felt that Mu Ning Jing didn't say anything and just stared at him. It made his hair stand on end. He pursed his lips and said, "I'm really not."
Mu Ning Jing continued to walk out.
Dong Zai blocked in front of Mu Ning Jing. "Miss Mu, where do you want to go? It's not safe for a girl to go out so late at night. "
"I want to go to the hospital to see Uncle Shen. Since you said it's not safe for me to go alone, can you send me there?"
Dong Zai looked troubled.
Mu Ning Jing asked softly, "You don't want to?"
"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that … it's just that …" Dong Zai stuttered for a long time, but couldn't find a good excuse.
"Forget it, I'll take a taxi there myself."
"Miss Mu, you can't go." Dong Zai stopped Mu Ning Jing, who was about to walk forward.
Mu Ning Jing looked straight at Dong Zai. "Why can't I go?"
Dong Zai scratched his head. He felt that the task Shen Tingxi gave him was too heavy. He might as well let him deal with those restless troublemakers. He really wasn't good at getting entangled with women.
"Is Uncle Shen seriously ill?"
Dong Zai shook his head.
"Tingxi was afraid that I would take the blame, so he hid it from me, right?"
Dong Zai continued to shake his head.
"Tingxi actually asked you to guard here and not let me go to the hospital, right?"
Dong Zai still shook his head.
Mu Ning Jing walked around Dong Zai and walked forward.
Dong Zai turned around and blocked in front of Mu Ning Jing. "Miss Mu …"
"I must go to the hospital today. Either you send me there, or I'll take a taxi there. You choose."
Dong Zai wanted to cry. Who said that Miss Mu didn't like to talk? When she spoke, she was simply … aggressive, okay? What kind of multiple-choice question was this? No matter which one he chose, he wouldn't be able to explain it to Young Master.
Mu Ning Jing was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly said, "You can also choose a third option."
Dong Zai's eyes lit up. "What?"
"Tell me the truth."
Dong Zai's face was sad. Life was full of pits. He pretended to be stupid. "Miss Mu, I don't know what truth you want."
"If you stop me again, I'll call the police." Mu Ning Jing's expression was calm.
Dong Zai was stunned for a moment. How was this the gentle and weak woman he knew? Could it be that he met a fake Miss Mu tonight?
