Staring at it for a long time is still a bit boring.

I took out my phone, stared at the screen, and unconsciously swiped through the notifications. News feeds kept popping up, but my attention was completely drawn to the words "Gu Mengmeng hospitalized".

I felt a mix of emotions. I hadn't heard from Gu Mengmeng in a long time, and I couldn't get through to her mother on the phone. I guess she didn't want Gu Mengmeng to have any contact with me.

I sighed. These gossip news stories are all the same; they all say that Gu Mengmeng is still in the hospital, but they can't say anything about the specifics.

Gu Mengmeng is a celebrity now, so the company will definitely keep the news very secret.

There's no point in looking any further, so I'm exiting the interface.

I'll visit Gu Mengmeng again when I go to my uncle's house in a while.

An hour later, Jiang Yuwei had only mopped half of the floor. It wasn't that she was slow, but that I had been trying to find ways to increase her workload.

"Jiang Yuwei, the corner of the wall wasn't wiped."

"Move that bonsai tree and clean the inside as well."

"Pour me another glass of water..."

With my interference, Jiang Yuwei spun around like a top.

Seeing her so busy she barely had time to breathe, I grinned from ear to ear and took a picture of Jiang Yuwei from a meter away with my phone.

In the photo, Jiang Yuwei is wearing brown loungewear and bending over to mop the floor. She still looks so beautiful, almost like a celebrity in a poster.

I thought to myself, with that look, if I went into the entertainment industry, I might actually become famous.

But then again, if our child inherits these good genes, even if things don't go smoothly in the future, they can still make a living based on their looks.

Just as I was happily thinking about it, Jiang Yuwei suddenly leaned over, startling me so much that my hand trembled and I almost dropped my phone.

Her expression wasn't good. She stared at me and asked, "What are you doing, acting so suspiciously?"

I took a sip of water, trying to appear calm, and said, "Nothing, just checking the news!"

Jiang Yuwei stared at me, her eyes darkening. "Watching the news made your ears turn red?"

I touched my ear and it was indeed a little hot, so I quickly made an excuse: "Oh dear, the heating is probably on too high."

She didn't ask any more questions, but I could sense that something was off.

Sure enough, she changed the subject: "Are you thinking about Gu Mengmeng again?"

"You're overthinking it, Gu Mengmeng isn't awake yet!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuwei's expression turned even more unpleasant. "How do you know she hasn't woken up? Did you contact her?"

I was a little flustered by her question, and without thinking, I replied, "I guessed!"

Jiang Yuwei clearly didn't believe it. She threw down the mop, strode up to me, and reached out to grab my phone.

"I'll know whether it's there or not just by looking!"

My instinct was to grab the phone tightly, so the phone ended up being half in her hand and half in mine, and neither of us was willing to let go.

"Jiang Yuwei, you promised to interfere in my private affairs! Are you trying to go back on your word?"

You really can't trust what this woman says.

She sneered, "I already said, except for Gu Mengmeng. She's always had designs on you. If I don't do anything about it, you'll be kidnapped by her tomorrow!"

I sighed, knowing that forcing the issue wouldn't work. To keep the photos from being exposed, I had to soften my tone and say, "Don't worry, I won't run away. I promised to stay, so I won't leave!"

She stared at me for a long time, as if trying to determine if I was being sincere. Finally, she slowly released her grip, but the wariness in her eyes hadn't completely disappeared.

I took the opportunity to snatch my phone back, feeling a sense of relief. But I also knew that this storm was not truly over.

To ease the tension, I deliberately yawned and said, "I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep."

She paused for a moment, then said, "I'll go with you."

I neither refused nor accepted; I simply lay back down on the bed. After she finished washing up, she hugged me from behind. I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Deep down, I knew she was just doing this to make sure I wouldn't leave. And I, too, needed time to sort out my thoughts.

When I woke up the next day, Jiang Yuwei was no longer beside me. I didn't think much of it, sat up, and glanced at the wardrobe next to me, where a set of loungewear was hanging.

I was slightly taken aback, and my body stiffened for a moment.

This scene is too familiar.

In my past life, I loved Jiang Yuwei very much. I cared about everything for her. Every day, I would get up early and prepare suitable clothes for her according to the weather, which I would then hang on the outside of the wardrobe.

Not only that, but they also prepare warm water for her. Thinking of this, I turned my head and sure enough, there was a thermos of warm water on the coffee table next to me!

These are all things I did for Jiang Yuwei in my past life, but I never expected that they would be reversed in this life!

I thought she wouldn't care about what I did in my past life, but now it seems that's not the case.
