Regardless of whether Zhao Youlin revealed the truth to him, she would still be chastised by the former master. As such, Zhao Youlin was truly annoyed by him. She said in resignation, “Okay… I got it.”
“As for Mu Tingfeng, even though he appears to be honest with you, he is actually cunning. You’d better don’t let him notice anything out of the ordinary from you, or else.
Zhao Youlin wished to tell the former master that Mu Tingfeng was not the type of person who simply revealed secrets to others. However, the moment she remembered that, no matter what, this incident was about the Zhao family’s private affairs, and that the fewer people who knew about it, including
her husband, the better.
“Got it. I wouldn’t let him find anything suspicious about me.”
The former master further reminded Zhao Youlin of several more things before he reluctantly hung up.
Zhao Youlin noticed an obvious hint of anger before the former master hung up. Apparently, his anger had not subsided.
Judging from the former master’s temperament, if he was unhappy, he certainly would not let the others around him be happy as well. He would most likely look for someone to be his punching bag right after he hung up the line.
The person who pitifully got selected as the former master’s target practice would certainly die in his hand today!
However, this had nothing to do with Zhao Youlin. After all, the person who was going to be put on the spot would definitely not be her. She did not care how much trouble the former master wanted to cause the person.
She had not clearly sought out Lu Shu’s affairs and now, Zhao Yifei’s side had given rise to new issues for her to be concerned about. Zhao Youlin found herself out of her wits. By the time she returned home, she easily found herself in a daze.
As long as Zhao Youlin was around, Mu Tingfeng would essentially focus solely on her. As such, he quickly noticed that Zhao Youlin was not like usual. He asked quietly, “What’s wrong with you today? Are you not feeling well?”
As he was saying this, he reached out for Zhao Youlin’s forehead and touched it. He wanted to know if Zhao Youlin was having a fever.
Upon hearing Mu Tingfeng’s words, Joy, who sat next to Zhao Youlin, looked up and stared wide-eyed at Zhao Youlin. He looked concemed about his mother.
When Mu Tingfeng’s chilly hand touched her forehead all of a sudden, she shivered and snapped out of her trance.
She met Mu Tingfeng’s gaze that was filled with concern with a hint of inquiry. Her heart let out a thump. She remembered the former master’s instruction and gave an awkward smile. “N-Nothing…”
Mu Tingfeng found Zhao Youlin’s words unacceptable. He continued staring into Zhao Youlin’s eyes.
His deep and bright eyes were brighter and more transparent than pearls. Under his stare, Zhao Youlin felt as if nothing could be hidden from him.
Just when Zhao Youlin thought he had noticed something unusual about her, she gulped with difficulty and began to think of an excuse to deceive him. However, Mu Tingfeng took the first step and asked, “Are you feeling irritated because of the previous incident?”
Zhao Youlin was stunned. However, she soon reacted to it and was aware that Mu Tingfeng actually referred to Lu Shu’s incident. She heaved out a sigh of relief and decided to play along with him as she gave a nod.
Zhao Youlin noticed that there was a hint of resignation on Mu Tingfeng’s face after she gave him a nod.
“Don’t worry too much. You have me.”
Zhao Youlin thought to herself. ‘Does he really think that I’m just a pretty face?
Despite making quips in her heart, Mu Tingfeng’s words were able to brighten up Zhao Youlin’s gloomy mood.

Joy, on the other hand, was at a loss as he listened to his parents’ lovey-dovey conversation. He pouted his lips, refused to be left alone and cut in. He lunged at Zhao Youlin’s arms and asked, “Mommy, are you not feeling well?”
Zhao Youlin gave a smile as she touched her son’s head and comforted him, “I’m fine. Joy, you’re a good boy. Come, give me a kiss.”
Joy obediently leaned close to Zhao Youlin and gave a peck on her cheek. The next moment, he said solemnly, “Mommy, you could tell anything to me and Daddy. Both of us would protect you.”
Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin could not help but let out a bark of laughter when they saw Joy behaving like an adult.
Zhao Youlin stretched out her hand and stroked Joy’s hair. She was amused by her son’s cute behavior. She smiled as she nodded, “Alright… If I face any irritating issues in the future, I’l certainly inform you and your father. I’ll seek your opinions.”
Joy’s eyes lit up. He showed his little finger at Zhao Youlin. “Pinky swear!”
Zhao Youlin did not know if she wanted to laugh or cry. Still, she made a pinky swear to Joy.
The corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips unwittingly curved upward when she saw Joy’s innocent appearance. In her heart, she was aware that the former master had taken Zhao Yifei’s incident to heart despite the fact that he acted as if he was fine in front of her. As such, Zhao Youlin prayed that Han Yichen and
An Yue’s baby would be delivered smoothly, so that the child could more or less make up for the former master’s missing piece in his heart.
Unfortunately, God seemed to work against Zhao Youlin. While Zhao Youlin was praying for An Yue to deliver her baby smoothly, something had truly happened to An Yue.
Zhao Youlin was having lunch with Mu Tingfeng when she received An Qi’s call. An Qi told her that An Yue had been admitted to the hospital.
Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng’s expressions immediately changed in unison. They no longer bothered about their lunch. They passed Joy to the old butler and quickly dashed over to the hospital where An Yue had been admitted to.
By the time Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng arrived at the hospital, An Yue had already been wheeled into the emergency theater. Meanwhile, Han Yichen, Nie Yunfan, and An Qi guarded outside the operating theater, looking gloomy.
An Qi finally showed some facial reaction when she saw Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng. She jerked up from the bench and went up to them.
“Youlin…” When An Qi saw Zhao Youlin, she looked as if she had found her pillar of strength. Tears that had long been welled up in her eyes finally poured out.
Zhao Youlin’s heart let out a thump when she noticed their expressions. She quickly took An Qi’s icy cold hands into hers and comforted her, “Everything would be fine. Yue Yue is a blessed woman. Nothing would happen to her.”

It was only then that An Qi became calmer. She said in a muffled voice, “Okay.”
An Qi was more nervous than everyone else the moment she was informed that something had happened to An Yue. She got worked up. However, she knew that getting panicked was pointless. All she needed to do was to keep her cool.
Zhao Youlin did not dare to ask more when she saw An Qi in her current state. She tugged at her arms and sat down on the long bench in front of the operating theater. It was only then that Zhao Youlin paid attention to Han Yichen, who sat next to her and equally looked as sad as An Qi. She asked in a low
voice, “Yichen, what’s going on?”
Han Yichen’s face was as black as thunderclouds. He did not respond to Zhao Youlin’s question.
Nie Yunfan was helpless when he saw this. He faked a cough and took the initiative to take over the conversation, “Half an hour ago, Yue Yue and An Qi came to look for Yichen at the Sheng Huang Group. Be it by coincidence or otherwise, Yichen was quarreling with an acquaintance at that moment. When
Yue Yue saw that Yichen was fighting with him, she immediately rushed over to them without giving it a second thought… As a result, she was pushed down by the person who was arguing with Yichen and… ended up in this state…”
