"Don't, I'm fine …"
There was a knock on the door, followed by Cao Guifang's voice. "Xin'er."
"That's all for now, my grandma is calling me." Xin hung up the phone hurriedly and got up from the bed. She rubbed her face and exhaled deeply, trying to calm herself down before she got up to open the door.
Cao Guifang was relieved to see that Xin had showered and changed into dry clothes. "I asked the nanny to make you some ginger soup. Go downstairs and have a bowl. You just got drenched in the rain, don't catch a cold."
Oh. She wanted to catch a cold! Shuxin was speechless.
Xin went downstairs and entered the kitchen. She picked up the bowl of ginger soup and stood by the sink, watching the nanny as she cut the vegetables. "Thank you, Auntie." She then poured the soup away when the nanny wasn't looking.
When the nanny heard the sound of water, she turned to look at Shu Xin. Shu Xin was drinking from an empty bowl. Her watery eyes looked at her with a smile.
The nanny frowned. Was she hallucinating?

Dongfang Yue
Huo Yanqing heard the busy tone on the other end of the line. He put his cell phone away and walked over to the sofa. "Tingxi, let's put this aside for now. I have something urgent to attend to. Come with me."
Shen Tingxi bit on the cigarette in the corner of his mouth. The smoke rose slowly, blurring his features. He lifted his head and looked at Huo Yanqing. "This concerns your life. What could be more important than your life?"
"Xin'er is crying," Huo Yanqing said calmly.
Shen Tingxi almost choked on the cigarette. He removed the cigarette from his lips with his long fingers. "Women are made of water. It's normal for them to cry. Let me tell you, the two people who appeared at the resort this time could be related to the spy from five years ago. You-"
"Are you going or not? If not, I'll call Song Li. "Huo Yanqing interrupted Shen Tingxi and frowned anxiously.
"Yes, I'll go, okay?" Shen Tingxi picked up the car keys on the coffee table and got up slowly. "It's not right for you to spoil women so much. Based on my understanding of women, the more you keep her hanging, the more she will love you …"
"She's my woman. I can spoil her however I want. I don't need you to teach me."
"Fine, fine, fine. Spoil her all you want. Sooner or later, she'll be so spoiled that she won't care about you at all."
"You don't have to worry about me. Just take me to heart."
"…"
The two of them left the room and went downstairs. Just as they reached the entrance of the living room, Huo Yanqing's phone rang again. It was a voice message: Xin 'er.
Huo Yanqing picked up the phone as he walked outside. "Xin 'er."
"Yanqing, don't come over. I'm really fine. I've already thought of a way to convince my dad."
"What is it?"
"I won't tell you for now. Just wait for my good news."
"Okay." Huo Yanqing stopped in his tracks. The two of them chatted for a while before hanging up. "I'm not going."
Shen Tingxi held the car door with one hand and stepped into the car with the other. "Why aren't you going?"
"Xin 'er told me not to go." Huo Yanqing turned around and walked towards the villa.
Shen Tingxi was speechless. Was he messing with him? When she cried, he went. When she told him not to go, he immediately turned around. Wasn't he too obedient?
Was this still the Huo Yanqing that he knew, the one who didn't get close to women?
…
The next day.
The alarm on the phone kept ringing. Xin frowned. She wanted to turn it off, but when she raised her hand, she didn't have the strength to do so. Forget it. I'm too tired. I'll sleep for a while more.
The alarm clock rang and rang, and Shu Xin slept soundly.
Until …
