In the surveillance cameras, the little fella walked out of the bedroom naked and wet. He carefully ran toward the bedroom like a thief. He even stole a look at the balcony and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that no one had discovered what he had done.
Nangong Lengyu’s fists tightened bit by bit. Her heart was in turmoil, and her eyes were red. As she looked at the child on the bed, she was angry but her heart also ached for him. She really wanted to teach him a good lesson, but she couldn’t bear to either.
This was all her fault. The child must have heard their conversation and thought that he had used an illness as an excuse to deceive her. That was why he had thought of such a method to make himself fall sick for real and come down with a fever. Why was he so foolish?!
There was a complicated look in Huo Ci’s eyes. He really wanted to pick the punk up and beat him. Look at what a great thing he had done! How was he so capable? No one was as impressive as him. He was just a small kid, yet he thought about so many things. When he grew up, he would become even more incredible. Who knew how many major, earth-shattering things he would do!
“Huo Ci.” Nangong Lengyu looked at him. “Let’s pretend we don’t know anything about this!”
Huo Ci grunted and took a look at the rascal on the bed again. His anger rose slowly as he said, “If this happens again, I’ll kill him.”
“Let’s not cause Sheng Sheng and the others worry either.” Nangong Lengyu was afraid that he would call their daughter, so she reminded him again.
Huo Ci had a hot temper. Not only was he helping to take care of the child, but he also had to keep watch over such a little troublemaker who had made him feel worried and scared. In the end, he had been the one to make himself fall sick. Neither mother nor child would give him a peace of mind.
F*ck.
Did he owe them or what?!
Nangong Lengyu knew that Huo Ci definitely wouldn’t call Jun Shiyan. As for her daughter, she was already busy enough filming every day. She didn’t want to tell her about Xiaoqi since she wasn’t in the capital now. Otherwise, she would get worried after finding out but couldn’t rush back immediately anyway.
After Huo Ci tidied up the accompanying hospital bed, he looked at the woman who was watching over the rascal. “Sleep for a while. I’ll watch him.”
Nangong Lengyu shook her head. “You should sleep. I’m not tired.”
Huo Ci looked at the severe dark circles under the woman’s eyes. She’s still being stubborn. Not tired? Her complexion’s so bloody awful! He didn’t care if she agreed or not, but he went over straight away and pulled her up. His tone was firm without giving any leeway. “Go to bed. I’ll watch him.”
The doctor had already said that he was fine. He had only caught a cold and was feverish. What else did she want to do? Guard him until daybreak?!
Nangong Lengyu frowned slightly as she looked at the stern-faced man. She was about to retort.
“Doesn’t your company have a press conference tomorrow? Do you want to attend the press conference with such a weary face?” Huo Ci interrupted her right away.
Nangong Lengyu thought, How do you know my company’s press conference will be held tomorrow? However, he was right. She took another look at Xiaoqi and didn’t insist anymore. She hummed in agreement and said, “Then, I’ll sleep for a while. Wake me up after two hours. I’ll take over.”
In the past half a month, she had not had a good night’s sleep due to the company’s matters, especially in the past week. She had been traveling around the world, busy modifying design plans, checking the finished products of the clothes, and taking care of the fashion press conference at a later stage.
