Chapter 48 A Small Plan
a long time.

"Bai'er!"

Sheng Hong slumped weakly on the bed, seemingly overwhelmed with emotion. Even his face showed signs of exhaustion.

"I'm so sorry to have troubled you today!"

Sheng Changbai understood that his father was referring to the fact that he had taken Xiao Mengyue back from Xiao Tao in time. After all, if it were really as he said, what good would it do for Xiao Qi to end up in Lin Qinshuang's hands?

"It seems that Father has listened to me," Sheng Changbai thought to himself.

"Father!"

“I am Xiaoqi’s older brother, and these are things I should do.”

After thinking it over, Sheng Changbai didn't take credit at all. He just looked at Sheng Hong with some worry, wondering what his final decision would be.

"All right!"

After sitting for a long time, Sheng Hong didn't say anything, but simply stood up and prepared to leave.

"Changbai, I will make the decision on this matter!"

"You should continue your studies and not let these things hold you back!"

Sheng Hong gave him a word of advice, fearing that Sheng Changbai might neglect his studies because of this matter.

"Your child understands!"

Sheng Changbai agreed without hesitation.

In fact, Sheng Changbai's original intention was just to have a word with Sheng Hong today, and after that, he would leave the matter alone. After all, no matter whether Sheng Hong's decision was good or bad, it wouldn't be up to him, as the son, to speak.

Seeing that Sheng Changbai had agreed, Sheng Hong nodded in relief and prepared to leave.

"correct!"

Before leaving, Sheng Hong turned around again and added a sentence.

"Remember, do not tell anyone about what happened today!"

Behind him, Sheng Changbai naturally nodded in agreement.

"Yes, father."

Watching Sheng Hong's departing figure, Sheng Changbai stood there, waiting for a very long time.

……

The next day.

Sheng Hong, sporting dark circles under his eyes, appeared in Wang Ruofu's courtyard.

"Official!"

Seeing Sheng Hong's appearance, Madam Wang was also startled: "What's wrong with you?"

Wang Ruofu knew that Sheng Hong hadn't gone into anyone's room last night, but had instead moved to the study alone. Little did he know that Sheng Hong hadn't slept at all and had instead forced himself to read all night.

At this moment, it was only because Madam Wang specially sent someone to summon him that Sheng Hong came over for breakfast; otherwise, he would probably have stayed cooped up in the study all day.

"fine."

Sheng Hong didn't want to say much, so he simply sat down, picked up the bowl and chopsticks on the table, and began to eat.

Originally, the Sheng family was supposed to eat and sleep in silence. However, because he had something on his mind and it was just Sheng Hong and his wife at the table, Sheng Hong started to speak after taking a few bites.

"By the way, my wife, how was tomorrow?"

Because Xiao Minglan was overwhelmed with grief and fainted, Wang Ruofu took her home and is now raising her in Wang Da Niangzi's courtyard.

"Ah~"

"They're pitiful too!"

Madam Wang put down her chopsticks and spoke sincerely: "Since yesterday, Ming'er has been in a coma and has a fever. She hasn't woken up yet, and it's really worrying to see her like this."

"Right now, I've invited a doctor over, and Hua'er is taking care of him."

"Oh?"

Sheng Hong was startled!
"Is Minglan's condition that serious?" Having just returned yesterday and taken care of so many things, Sheng Hong hadn't had a chance to visit Minglan yet. Upon hearing about the situation, he couldn't sit still any longer.

Ultimately, due to his own experiences, Sheng Hong still cares a lot about his children unless there are special circumstances.

Even those born out of wedlock are the same.

Of course, this special situation refers to things that threaten the reputation of the Sheng family and affect his own official position, which are the most important things in Sheng Hong's eyes.

"No, I have to go check on it right away!"

"Ah! My lord, you haven't finished your meal yet!"

Wang Ruofu was worried about Sheng Hong's health and advised, "Since yesterday, my lord, you haven't eaten much. If you don't eat more now, what if you collapse from exhaustion?"

"Don't forget, there's still a ton of stuff to take care of at home!"

"My lord, you must not overwork yourself!"

Upon hearing these words, Sheng Hong managed to eat a few more bites before hurriedly getting up and heading to the courtyard where Xiao Minglan was.

……

"Thump! Thump! Thump..."

As the hurried footsteps gradually subsided, Madam Wang watched Sheng Hong's departing figure and chuckled a few times.

"hehe!"

"It seems that my husband is serious this time!"

Wang Ruofu leisurely picked up her chopsticks, slowly tasted a few bites of food, and happily said to her maid, Liu Mama, "Look, the master didn't go to her courtyard last night."

"She must be terrified right now, right?"

Wang Ruofu was so happy that even the food in front of her seemed more delicious, and she couldn't help but take a few more bites.

However, at this moment, Liu Mama, who was beside Wang Ruofu, whispered a reminder: "Madam, this matter may not be so simple!"

"Ok?"

Madam Wang was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

After looking around and making sure no one else was in the room, Madam Liu whispered, "Madam, don't forget, although the Lord didn't go to Linxi Pavilion, he didn't punish them much either!"

Mrs. Liu pointed and continued, "The small kitchen and such in Linxi Pavilion are still in good condition, nothing has changed."

"Doesn't this also mean that the treatment over there hasn't changed?"

"Furthermore, if Linxi Pavilion sees an opportunity, and uses some seductive tricks to soften the lord's heart and regain his favor, it's not impossible!"

As soon as Liu Mama said that, Wang Da Niangzi's good mood was immediately ruined.

"Yup!"

You're right.

Wang Ruoruo said thoughtfully, "That slut is used to using all sorts of tricks to make herself look like a pure white lotus, so that her husband will always indulge and favor her."

"This is something we absolutely must guard against!"

Madam Wang nodded as she asked the people around her for advice.

"Aunt Liu, what do you suggest I do?"

Liu Mama approached Wang Ruofu again and whispered, "In my opinion, we should cut off their hopes at the root!"

"She won't even have a chance to get close to her lord!"

A resolute glint flashed in her eyes as Liu Mama said, "Anyway, the master doesn't like her now because of Wei Xiaoniang's matter, so let's just put an end to her thoughts like this!"

"Go with the flow and keep her away from the lord!"

"As time goes by, the one from Linxi Pavilion will probably fade from the Lord's memory!"
