They moved to their new residence, Huayue Mansion.
The building has 9 floors and two apartments per floor.
Both apartments were available for rent, and Xue Mingcheng lived next door to Rong Shu. He carried Rong Shu's luggage into the apartment. "Evelynn, I'll hire a live-in nanny tomorrow."
Rong Shu said, "I'll contact you tomorrow, and you can arrange for them to come over then."
Xue Mingcheng: "Alright, then Evelynn, you should get some rest early tonight."
"Um."
Xue Mingcheng turned and left the room.
Rong Shu pushed her luggage to the bedroom. The room was very clean. She opened her suitcase and hung her clothes in the closet one by one. She then organized her skincare products and went to the bathroom.
Finished tidying up.
She felt extremely tired and lay on the bed to rest, staring blankly at the unfamiliar ceiling above her head. The light spread across her eyes, and her pupils seemed unfocused.
That night.
Rong Shu didn't sleep well. The unfamiliar environment and unfamiliar sheets and blankets made it difficult for her to fall asleep.
the next day.
She went to the mall and bought a brand new set of mulberry silk duvet cover and summer quilt.
I booked an appointment with a renowned obstetrics and gynecology specialist at another hospital.
After the examination was completed.
The doctor looked at the report in his hand, then at her, and took her pulse. His expression was grave. "Your liver qi stagnation is severely affecting your spleen, and you are exhausted. Don't keep everything bottled up inside. Put aside work and life for now and focus on yourself. No matter how much medicine you take, it won't help if your mind is not at peace."
Rong Shu said, "I'm trying my best to adjust now, and I've stopped taking all my medications."
The doctor looked at the report in his hand again. "Your current physical indicators are all below standard. If you insist on keeping the baby, I will prescribe some supplements for you to take for a week to help you recover. If there is no sign of improvement in any of the indicators, then I will recommend induced labor."
Rong Shu tightened her grip and replied, "Okay."
While prescribing the medication, the doctor said, "Most women's diseases are caused by emotions. You must relax and try to stay away from people and things that cause your emotions to fluctuate. Children are secondary; your own health and mood are the most important."
"Thank you, doctor. I understand."
The doctor handed her the prescription and said, "Go get your medicine."
Rong Shu thanked her again.
After leaving the hospital.
Rong Shu then took a taxi to the company.
The next two days.
Rong Shu goes to bed early and gets up early, exercises appropriately, maintains good work and rest habits, and the nanny she hired is professional, preparing food that suits her taste every day.
Her daily work proceeds in an orderly manner. She handles tasks and holds meetings with the same efficiency. To outsiders, there is no sign of anything unusual about her; she is just like any other ordinary person.
During that time, I received a call from Meimei.
She was originally supposed to return to China a couple of days ago, but Sheng Tingchen asked her to stay.
"Dad said he'll take me back to China when he's done with his work. Mom, I'm so bored!" Meimei rolled around on the bed, bored out of her mind.
Rong Shu coaxed, "Then Meimei will wait to return to China with her father."
Meimei, "Okay, what is Mom doing?"
Rong Shu: "Mom just got home from get off work."
Meimei said "Oh," and added, "Mom, don't work too hard. Meimei doesn't want to see you work so hard. I'll wait for Dad and me to come back and find you."
Rong Shu tried her best to control her emotions and nodded, saying, "Okay."
The words fell.
She heard a click as the door opened on the other end of the phone, followed by Meimei calling out, "Daddy!"
Rong Shu's heart sank suddenly.
"Dad, Mom's on the phone."
Meimei got out of bed and walked towards her father, handing him the phone and watch. Sheng Tingchen glanced at it, took it, and said gently, "Go play by yourself first."
"Okay." Meimei smiled and didn't disturb her parents' conversation.
When Rong Shu heard the phone go completely silent on the other end, she gripped the phone tighter and tighter.
The atmosphere was quiet, as if a taut string was stretched across the middle.
Just as she was about to put down her phone and hang up, she heard the man's deep, icy voice, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Hearing the man's voice again after more than a month, his previous gentleness seemed like a thing of the past.
There was a long silence.
Rong Shu took a deep breath and said, "It's good that you're alright now."
Hearing the woman's calm and even tone, the man suddenly laughed, his laughter laced with sarcasm and coldness. "Looks like you're quite disappointed."
Rong Shu's fingertips turned white as she gripped the phone, biting her lip tightly to keep herself from making any noise.
a long time.
Sheng Tingchen, not hearing a response from the woman, grew even more somber. "Not going to speak, is that it?"
Rong Shu forced herself to control the surging emotions in her heart, "There's nothing to say."
That's all.
She hung up the phone immediately, her hand holding the phone falling limply to her side, and she suddenly felt completely exhausted, as if she had used up all her strength.
She leaned against the sofa, gazing absently at the pitch-black night outside the window.
The other end.
Sheng Tingchen lowered his hand, his face even more gloomy.

It wasn't until the nanny came to remind Rong Shu that dinner was ready, and noticing her pale face, asked with concern, "Miss Rong, are you feeling unwell? Should we go to the hospital?"
Rong Shu came to her senses, composed herself, and said, "I'm fine."
She got up and went to the bathroom to wash her face to refresh herself. Afterwards, she went to the restaurant for dinner, but she started vomiting after eating very little.
Finally, she drank a bowl of congee, ate a few nutritional pills, and went back to her room to rest in bed.
The next day was the weekend.
After nearly a week of overcast skies, the sun finally came out, revealing a clear blue sky dotted with fluffy white clouds, a sight that instantly lifted one's spirits.
Rong Shu stayed home to rest and read without going out. A little orange cat and a little tabby cat were curled up next to her. The two little guys were stretching out their short legs and rubbing against each other. The little orange cat lost its balance and fell softly to the ground, and the little tabby cat immediately pounced on it.
Watching the two little ones playing, Rong Shu couldn't help but smile.
jingle.
The doorbell rang.
The nanny went to open the door and, seeing the person standing there, asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
Jiang Huaixu nodded slightly and said, "I've come to see Rong Shu."
Rong Shu, who was reading on the living room balcony, heard a noise and turned around. Jiang Huaixu, carrying a bag, changed into disposable slippers and walked in from the entrance.
Rong Shu paused for a moment, put down the book in her hand, got up and walked into the living room, with the two kittens hopping and skipping after her as they entered the house.
"Professor, why didn't you tell me beforehand?"
Jiang Huaixu placed the nutritional supplements he was holding on the coffee table, looked at her with a gentle smile, and said, "I hope I didn't frighten you!"
Rong Shu smiled and said, "Of course not."
Jiang Huaixu's gaze fell on the little orange cat. "When did you get a cat?"
Rong Shu sat on the sofa and said, "It rained a couple of days ago, and I found a stray cat in the green belt outside."
Jiang Huaixu called out, and the two little ones immediately ran over. "They're quite cute. Have they had their checkups and vaccinations?"
Rong Shu said, "I've had a check-up, and there's nothing wrong with the vaccination."
"That's good." Jiang Huaixu picked up a cat toy and played with the two little guys, who eagerly grabbed it. "It's nice to have two cats with you. Have you named them yet?"
Rong Shu said, "Let's call them Little Orange and Little Flower."
Jiang Huaixu: "Well, you got it pretty casually."
Rong Shu smiled faintly, "It's easier to say."
