He understood immediately and changed the subject, "Yan Shi, as long as you don't go too far, everything can be resolved. But if you keep acting recklessly for that woman, who will have a good impression of her?"

“I came in a hurry and didn’t tell her in advance. Now I just want to tell her so that she can’t find me if she needs anything.”

"Why is she making such a fuss? Your own mother is lying in the hospital bed right now! If she doesn't care about your predicament at this time, does she really have any feelings for you?"

Fu Yanshi didn't want to argue with his father at this moment, so he just turned his attention to the phone in his father's hand.

The screen never lit up, and Xu Qinghuan did not reply to the message.

It seems nothing has happened...

……

Xu Qinghuan felt as if she had been thrown into a deep pit, surrounded by darkness, where she couldn't see her own hand in front of her face.

She wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound, and she wanted to run but couldn't move!

Suddenly, she heard someone calling her name behind her. Upon closer listening, she recognized her mother's voice!

"Huanhuan, Mommy can't protect you anymore, Mommy has to go!"

"Huanhuan, remember, Mommy loves you very, very much..."

Xu Qinghuan desperately tried to run towards the source of the sound, until she suddenly opened her eyes.

The white ceiling came into view, somewhat glaring.

There was no darkness, and there was no...mother's voice.

Hearing her voice, Nie Zhisen quickly grabbed her wrist, his joy barely contained, "Huanhuan, you're finally awake!"

Xu Qinghuan slowly turned her gaze to his hand, and Nie Zhisen realized that he had been too excited and had crossed the line. He quickly let go of his hand and smiled awkwardly, "Um, Jiajia was called away by the doctor, I'll go and call her back!"

After he left, Xu Qinghuan suddenly saw a man in a white coat walk in.

She didn't recognize him by his face, but it was clear that he had come specifically to find her.

"Xu Qinghuan, someone asked me to pass on a message to you."

She looked up, her vision blurry, and asked, "Who are you...?"

"Who I am is not important. What is important is that you should know how to proceed from here! Otherwise, the consequences will not be just what they are now."

Xu Qinghuan suddenly clenched her fists. "Xia Wanyu sent you!"

"Heh, she doesn't have that ability yet." The man chuckled in a low voice. "Don't tell me you don't even know who you've messed with."

"Did the Fu family send you to threaten me? Now that my mother has been killed by you, what else can you do to me?" Xu Qinghuan deliberately induced the other party to reveal the truth, so as to confirm her own suspicions.

The man didn't say it outright, but he didn't deny it either; he just kept laughing, a laugh that made people uneasy.

"You only have your mother by your side? No, you have many weaknesses that can be threatened! For example... that teacher Nie Zhisen who just walked out, and for example—your best friend, Fu Jiajia."

Xu Qinghuan's heart sank. "You're not allowed to touch her!"

“We have no interest in messing with such minor characters. As long as you are obedient, everyone will be fine.”

After saying this, the man adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and turned to leave.

The door was closed again, and the person seemed like a ghost, as if his presence was even a hallucination.

But Xu Qinghuan knew that this was not an illusion!

How could she not understand now?

The Fu family is truly beyond my ability to contend with.

"Huanhuan!" Fu Jiajia's voice came from afar. She pushed open the door and rushed to her bedside, breathless. "You're pregnant, did you know?!"

"..."

"You know?!" Seeing that she remained silent, Fu Jiajia understood.

Xu Qinghuan pursed her chapped lips and said in a hoarse voice, "Please, keep this a secret for me."
