President, the deceased lady has three more children

Fu Yunchuan looked at Lu Mingzhu, his expression remaining indifferent.

"Didn't it rain? Maybe I'm mistaken. You know I was delirious from the fever when you found me, so my memory is probably even more hazy than yours. Maybe it rained last night, which made me think it rained then too."

Fu Yunchuan frowned, seemingly genuinely unsure whether it had rained that year.

Lu Mingzhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Fu Yunchuan himself didn't remember, and he probably wasn't testing her.

“Brother Yun Chuan, it’s normal not to remember things from so many years ago. You don’t need to think about it too much, or you’ll get a headache.”

Fu Yunchuan didn't say anything, but simply raised his hand and rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"Brother Yun Chuan, what are you and Doctor Bu Gui doing on Niubei Mountain? But don't misunderstand, I don't have any ulterior motives or anything else, I'm just a little curious."

After all, Niubei Mountain is a rather special place for us.

Lu Mingzhu first asked cautiously, and then quickly explained.

"Some personal matters."

Lu Mingzhu was very dissatisfied with this answer, and she now wanted to know if Nanxing had revealed anything.

Did she mention anything to you?

"What do you want her to tell me?" Fu Yunchuan asked, looking at her.

"No, I'm just a little curious. After all, Niubei Mountain is different for us."

Lu Mingzhu forced a smile, not daring to ask any more questions, afraid that asking further would displease Fu Yunchuan or make him suspicious.

"Since you're so curious, I'll take you there again when I have some free time in a while," Fu Yunchuan said casually.

Lu Mingzhu smiled again, but dared not say anything more than "okay".

"Brother Yun Chuan, what do you want me to do here? I feel a little tired. If you don't have anything to say, I'd like to go back and rest first. The doctor should come later to ask about today's situation."

Upon hearing this, Fu Yunchuan glanced at her; she did indeed look somewhat weak.

"It's nothing, I just asked you to come and check on your condition. Take care of your health. If it happens again, no one can save you."

"I understand. I will listen to you from now on and will not take medicine indiscriminately again."

"Are you really so comfortable letting He Feng handle things at the company?" Fu Yunchuan asked again.

“There’s nothing to worry about. He Feng brings company matters to the hospital to report to me every day. It’s just that it’s a bit tiring for him.”

Lu Mingzhu didn't think there was anything wrong with what Fu Yunchuan said; she just assumed that Fu Yunchuan was asking the same question as before.

"Just trust him."

I believe it.

“Go back. If you’re not in a bad mood, stay in the hospital. The doctor said you can be discharged to rest and recuperate before being discharged again. Also, don’t go around slandering Bu Gui and her children anymore, otherwise no one can save you. Right now, your body can only rely on her,” Fu Yunchuan warned her.

Lu Mingzhu's face stiffened slightly before she nodded with a bitter expression.

"I understand, Brother Yun Chuan. You should rest well and don't worry about me. I'll be fine."

Lu Mingzhu got up and walked towards the door. Jiang Bai got up to see her off and even opened the door for her.

“Miss Lu, please take care. Ah Kui, come and help your young lady. She doesn’t look well.”

As an assistant, Jiang Bai felt that he was perfectly competent at the moment.

When A-Kui heard Jiang Bai call her name, her heart started racing and her face flushed slightly.

Lu Mingzhu leaned against A Kui, feeling that Jiang Bai's words "take care" were deliberately mocking her.

After all, Jiang Bai had heard everything Yun Chuan said to her in the ward, especially since Jiang Bai had reported it behind her back. So why was she pretending to be innocent here now?

Fueled by resentment and the way Fu Yunchuan had treated her, she was both angry and terrified, and no longer wanted to pretend. So she didn't respond to Jiang Bai's words at all, not even giving him a glance, and simply had A-Kui help her back.

Jiang Bai raised an eyebrow. It seemed that Lu Mingzhu was quite angry, and she didn't even bother to pretend anymore.

He watched Lu Mingzhu and A Kui walk away before returning to the ward. As soon as he closed the door, he saw Fu Yunchuan sitting on the hospital bed, lost in thought.

Yes, he was really spacing out, staring blankly out the window, clearly lost in thought.

Jiang Bai was startled and quickly walked over, looking at Fu Yunchuan with a strange expression.

"President, what's wrong? You're not...you're not thinking of doing something rash, are you?"

It's not surprising that he said that. He'd seen Fu Yunchuan with a blank expression many times, but this was the first time he'd seen him with a blank expression mixed with a hint of confusion.

This feeling is truly bizarre.

Fu Yunchuan didn't answer him, and Jiang Bai wasn't surprised. After all, if the president had answered the questions he had just asked, it would have been frightening.

The president has experienced so much since childhood, how could he possibly be so upset about something so small? Besides, he still has the young mistress and young masters, as well as the old lady and Madam Fu. The president wouldn't be willing to give up any of them.

"President, if something has happened, just say it directly. You're making people worry." Jiang Bai saw that Fu Yunchuan hadn't spoken for so long, so he could only try to appeal to his emotions.

After he finished speaking, Fu Yunchuan did react and looked at him.

"I may have made a mistake." His voice was calm, but Jiang Bai could hear the obvious doubt in his tone, which made him pause again.

Having served the CEO for so many years, this was only the second time he had heard the CEO speak so earnestly.

The first time was after the young mistress had her accident. The president said he regretted it, that he shouldn't have proposed a divorce to the young mistress, and that he didn't treat her better.

Now that I'm hearing these words again, could it be that the president is once again caught up in guilt and remorse?

"President, you..."

"Jiang Bai, do you think it's possible that the person who saved me back then wasn't Lu Mingzhu?"

"What?" Jiang Bai was completely stunned. He even raised his hand to rub his ears to make sure he hadn't misheard. Otherwise, how could he hear the president questioning Lu Mingzhu?

This was something he never even dared to imagine, and he was questioning it.

"President, what did you just say? You said the person who saved you might not be Lu Mingzhu?"

It took him a while to find his voice, and when he looked at Fu Yunchuan, he did so with a tentative look, wondering if Fu Yunchuan was joking with him.

However, he was surprised to find no trace of joking in Fu Yunchuan's eyes; all he saw was seriousness and suspicion.

He took a deep breath, still finding the whole thing quite astonishing.

"President, what exactly happened? Why did you suddenly have such a guess?"

“Some of the things Lu Mingzhu said just now are different from what she said when she was a child, and even the opposite. But she also clearly said that it didn’t rain back then.”

Fu Yunchuan's explanation made Jiang Bai understand why Fu Yunchuan's conversation with Lu Mingzhu had been so strange.

At the time, he wondered why the president would say so much, and even be somewhat sentimental. Now it seems that the president was testing Lu Mingzhu.

"President, what are the specific differences, or what makes you suspicious?"

Fu Yunchuan remained silent. He had no concrete evidence, only the sudden realization that something was amiss when Lu Mingzhu said those words.

What Lu Mingzhu just said was, 'I don't want my little brother to be taken away by someone else.'

But what he heard back then was: "[Big brother, your life belongs to yourself and to those you care about and those who care about you. Stay alert, you'll feel better after the fever breaks.]"

He was indeed delirious with fever at the time, but he clearly heard all those words.

After he got back, he had a fever and couldn't remember exactly what he said, but he remembered those words almost instantly when Lu Mingzhu said them.

People change, but with so many changes, is it possible for their words to mean the opposite?

During this time, he had been thinking about how Lu Mingzhu had changed so much since she was a child. Coupled with what Lu Mingzhu had just said, the seeds of doubt were planted in his heart, making him unable to help but question some things.

Seeing that Fu Yunchuan hadn't spoken, Jiang Bai assumed that Fu Yunchuan was too embarrassed to talk about it, so he didn't ask any further questions.

After thinking about it, he decided to analyze the situation for Fu Yunchuan from a rational perspective.

"President, only you know the specifics of what happened. And if I remember correctly, when the old lady and the madam found Lu Mingzhu, everything matched up, and they verified it was her again and again, so the probability of it being wrong is probably not high."

After all, the Fu family had investigated so thoroughly back then.

Before today, Fu Yunchuan had never considered that it wasn't Lu Mingzhu, but now he couldn't help but have doubts.

"Have someone reinvestigate what happened back then, especially when He Feng met her, including when he met everyone in the Lu family."

If the person who saved him wasn't Lu Mingzhu, then the relationship between Lu Mingzhu and He Feng would need to be redefined, and all of this would be inextricably linked to Lu Mingzhu.

Fu Yunchuan's eyes turned cold, and Jiang Bai understood that Fu Yunchuan was not joking and had indeed discovered something, which was why he was suspicious of Lu Mingzhu.

He breathed a sigh of relief; the CEO had finally regained some composure. But if the person who saved the CEO wasn't Lu Mingzhu, then who could it be? This was too absurd!

Why did they only realize something was wrong with Lu Mingzhu after all these years? They all thought Lu Mingzhu was two-faced, but they never doubted that Lu Mingzhu had once saved Fu Yunchuan.

Because Fu Yunchuan had personally verified it, Lu Mingzhu was able to answer many of his questions.

Fu Yunchuan shared the same idea.

Back then, he had indeed verified Lu Mingzhu's identity multiple times, and he had asked her some questions, to which she answered that there were no problems.

If it wasn't Lu Mingzhu who saved him, then who was it?

…………

"South Star!"

As soon as Lu Mingzhu returned to the ward, she gritted her teeth and called out Nanxing's name.

Fu Yunchuan was clearly acting strangely in the ward just now. He even warned her repeatedly not to go to Nanxing again, and even included those children in the warning.

How come she never knew Fu Yunchuan was so generous! He's even protecting someone else's child, even though it's not Fu Yunchuan's child!

"Miss, what did you say?" A-Kui asked, looking at Lu Mingzhu.

"It's nothing, just pour me a glass of hot water." Lu Mingzhu leaned back on the hospital bed, her face contorted in a frightening way.

A-Kui didn't dare to ask any more questions, and could only pour her a glass of warm water.

Lu Mingzhu had been waiting for news from He Feng; if this continued, she would really go crazy and couldn't hold back anymore.

Fortunately, Nanxing is about to be disgraced. She wants to see what Nanxing will do then. She also believes that the Yun family will definitely not give too much support to Nanxing, a daughter who has not been by her side since childhood, and abandon their century-old foundation.

The three children were unwell and felt terrible for two days. During those two days, Nanxing stayed at home with the children until they fully recovered.

She didn't go out or meet with Gu Yihe. After learning that the children were sick, Gu Yihe didn't urge Nanxing. Instead, he brought gifts for Feng Jiejie and asked her to bring them back for the three children.

When Yun's parents learned that their children were sick, they immediately finished what they were doing and rushed back.

Today is the third day. Nanxing sent a message to Gu Yihe last night saying that she had time to go over today.

She put the smelly grass she had brought back from the mountain that day into her backpack, glanced at the three children in the room, and then went downstairs.

She originally planned to send the children to kindergarten today, but Yun's parents felt sorry for the children and insisted on having them rest for another day before sending them to kindergarten.

Downstairs in the living room, Yun Shen was on the phone with his back to her.

"We must snatch that project at all costs. Even if we fail, we can't let him get away with it. With the data we know in advance, our chances of winning are very high."

Nanxing heard these words.

She paused slightly, looking at Yun Shen's back with some surprise.

This was the first time she had heard Yun Shen speak about the company in such a serious and ruthless tone at home.

As she walked over, wondering if she could hear what it was about, Yun Shen spotted her and told the person on the other end to hang up.

"Brother, is there a lot going on at the company?" she asked. "You sounded like it was a serious matter when I heard you talking earlier."

"It's not much, just one rather important project. Don't worry, just do what you want to do," Yun Shen said gently, looking at her.

"I'm doing fine now, and I'm doing what I want to do. But I'm also a member of the family, so if anything happens, you have to tell me and don't hide it from me."

"Don't worry, what problem could there be?"

"That's good. By the way, have your second and third brothers been particularly busy these past few days? I haven't seen them since the children came back from the hospital."

Nanxing wondered what Yun Shen and the others were doing, but she hadn't had a chance to ask because she was busy taking care of the children these past few days.

"I guess so. It'll be over after these next couple of days. Are you going out?"

Yun Shen changed the subject, clearly not wanting Nan Xing to continue asking questions.

Nanxing didn't think much of it and just nodded.

"Go, go check out the clinic." Nanxing wasn't telling the truth either.

Yun Shen offered to take her there, but Nan Xing refused, saying she wanted to drive herself.

She received a message from Brother Yu as soon as she got on the bus.

Upon seeing the message, her heart began to race.
