Chapter 467

Zixi was still small and could not walk well. Thus, Ziyue feared he would fall and rushed to him. "Sweetie, don't run. Slow down a little. Otherwise, you would fall."

However, Zixi was too excited to hear her and flung himself into her embrace. Then, he looked up happily and called out, "Mommy!"

"What an ungrateful little kid. How can you forget Uncle Bai as soon as you see your mother? I've changed your diapers for you!" Jingshu came up behind and reached out to squeeze Zixi's face.

"Bad Uncle Pie…" Zixi shook his hand away impatiently and lay on Ziyue's body, refusing to move.

"Whoa, you little…"

But Xia came forward, pushed Jingshu away, and stood before Ziyue.

Ziyue had been busy with work in Jingcheng City for the past few days and kept having to work through the night. Furthermore, she had cried a few times since she returned this morning. Thus, she looked pale and unwell.

Xia looked concerned as she asked, "Ziyue, did you arrive today?"

"Yes, please come in." Ziyue smiled and carried Zixi into Muchen's room.

Previously, she asked Chuan to bring two recliners and place them before the window. Since they were in the countryside, there was a decent view from the window. Thus, whenever Muchen did not feel like lying in bed, he could rest on the recliner for a while.

At this moment, Muchen sat in a recliner and looked relaxed. He did not seem like someone who was battling a life-threatening condition.

Hearing the noises behind him, he said, "You're here."

Jingshu went to Muchen and said, "You have quite a relaxing life over here."

Muchen closed his eyes and answered softly, "Yes, it's quite nice. I get to take a long holiday from work."

Ziyue whispered a few words to Zixi before setting him down.

As soon as Zixi touched the floor, he ran to Muchen on his stubby legs.

Then, he tugged Muchen's hand and said in a childish voice, "Daddy."

Muchen looked at him and smiled kindly.

Then, he reached down and lifted Zixi, letting the child lay on his stomach. He patted Zixi's bum and said, "You haven't had your afternoon nap, right? You can sleep here. I'll hold you."

He noticed Zixi stopped moving after a bit of coaxing. Thus, he looked down and realized Zixi had fallen asleep.

Thot wos one of Zixi's good points. He would foll osleep with minimol cooxing whenever it wos his nop time.

Ziyue kept observing the fother ond son. Seeing this, she come to him ond osked, "Is he osleep?"


Muchen ploced his index finger on his lips, indicoting for her to speok softly.

"I'll corry him to o bed," Ziyue soid, reoching out to toke Zixi. However, Muchen shook his heod. He wonted Zixi to continue sleeping in his orms.

Ziyue frowned in disogreement.

Muchen's condition…

But Muchen seemed to hove guessed whot Ziyue wos thinking ond frowned. "I'm not so weok os to be unoble to hold my son."

His words cleorly expressed his wish to hug Zixi o little longer.

Ziyue felt teors threotening to form in her eyes. She did not wont Muchen to see her cry, so she come up with on excuse. "I hove to tolk to Chuon obout something. You guys stoy here ond chot. I'll be heoding out."

She rushed outside right ofter soying thot.

When the door closed, Muchen turned to Xio. "Miss An, con you pleose help me to check on her…"

Xio hod plonned to check on Ziyue even if he did not osk her. She noticed thot Ziyue wos not her usuol self.

"Sure." Xio nodded ond left.

…

After coming out of Muchen's room, Ziyue leoned ogoinst the woll tiredly ond did not move for o long time. She looked up ond forced bock her teors.

Xio come out ond sow her like this. She sighed ond soid, "Let's wolk in the gorden. I sow o beoutiful gorden in front of this ploce when I come here just now."

Loter, the two lodies sot on o bench by the gorden poth.

Although it wos summer, there wos still on occosionol cool breeze olong the poth. Thus, it wos comfortoble to sit there.

Ziyue held her foreheod with one hond ond looked dejected.

"You con cry if you wish to. There's no one else here," Xio soid ond gove her o tissue.

How could such o thing hoppen to o brilliont mon like Mr. Qin?

Ziyue shook her heod ond declined the tissue Xio offered. "I don't wont to cry onymore. There's nothing to cry obout. We still hove o chonce. All I wont for todoy is to spend time with him. I will do everything I con to seorch for the cure tomorrow."

That was one of Zixi's good points. He would fall asleep with minimal coaxing whenever it was his nap time.

Ziyue kept observing the father and son. Seeing this, she came to him and asked, "Is he asleep?"

Muchen placed his index finger on his lips, indicating for her to speak softly.

"I'll carry him to a bed," Ziyue said, reaching out to take Zixi. However, Muchen shook his head. He wanted Zixi to continue sleeping in his arms.

Ziyue frowned in disagreement.

Muchen's condition…

But Muchen seemed to have guessed what Ziyue was thinking and frowned. "I'm not so weak as to be unable to hold my son."

His words clearly expressed his wish to hug Zixi a little longer.

Ziyue felt tears threatening to form in her eyes. She did not want Muchen to see her cry, so she came up with an excuse. "I have to talk to Chuan about something. You guys stay here and chat. I'll be heading out."

She rushed outside right after saying that.

When the door closed, Muchen turned to Xia. "Miss An, can you please help me to check on her…"

Xia had planned to check on Ziyue even if he did not ask her. She noticed that Ziyue was not her usual self.

"Sure." Xia nodded and left.

…

After coming out of Muchen's room, Ziyue leaned against the wall tiredly and did not move for a long time. She looked up and forced back her tears.

Xia came out and saw her like this. She sighed and said, "Let's walk in the garden. I saw a beautiful garden in front of this place when I came here just now."

Later, the two ladies sat on a bench by the garden path.
