Yu Anwan quickly regained her composure and immediately checked Yu Xiaobao’s forehead temperature. She breathed a sigh of relief when she realized it wasn’t too serious.
Now, Yu Anwan looked at Yu Xiaobao.
Yu Xiaobao blinked with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
“Let’s go upstairs and rest for a bit,” Yu Anwan said directly.
Yu Xiaobao responded with an “okay” and held Yu Anwan’s hand. She tilted her head and smiled cutely at Wen Jin, saying, “Uncle, thank you for bringing me to find Mommy.”
“You’re welcome.” Wen Jin nodded. “Let Mommy take you upstairs to sleep.” When Wen Jin spoke to Yu Xiaobao, he sounded gentle.
Thinking that Yu Xiaobao might be his daughter, Wen Jin’s gaze softened unconsciously.
Wen Jin’s gaze made Yu Anwan tremble with fear. This time, Yu Anwan didn’t dare to linger any longer. She quickly held Yu Xiaobao’s hand and headed upstairs.
She didn’t even look back at Wen Jin.
Wen Jin’s gaze darkened, but he didn’t say anything. Soon, he had the servants clean up the dining room.
At the same time, Yu Anwan brought Yu Xiaobao to the guest room.
Before Yu Anwan could say anything, Yu Xiaobao spoke up crisply, “Mommy, don’t be nervous. Daddy didn’t find out anything.”
Yu Anwan sighed in relief.
“Mommy.” Yu Xiaobao continued, “Don’t blame me for this. You didn’t answer my call, and Daddy happened to pick up, so he came over. And I felt uncomfortable.”
Yu Xiaobao’s eyes welled up with tears as she spoke.
Yu Anwan couldn’t do anything about Yu Xiaobao.
This time, Yu Anwan fell silent for a moment and coaxed, “You still have a fever. Go to sleep early. I’ll take you to take a shower, okay?”
“No need, I can do it myself. Mommy, you just need to clean yourself up,” Yu Xiaobao said, pointing at the soup stains on Yu Anwan’s clothes. “Aren’t you uncomfortable?”
Yu Anwan glanced down and pursed her lips. It was indeed quite uncomfortable.
“Mommy, I’ve taken my medicine, and my health isn’t as bad as Brother Zhanyan’s, so I’ll be fine after a good night’s sleep tomorrow, ” Yu Xiaobao reassured Yu Anwan. “You don’t need to worry about Dabao either. He’s hiding well, and Daddy won’t find out.”
“Alright.” Yu Anwan nodded.
However, Yu Anwan was still nervous because of Wen Jin’s penetrating gaze, as if he could see right through her.
It was more like Wen Jin knew something.
Anything related to Daao and Xiaobao made Yu Anwan anxious.
But she thought that Wen Jin hadn’t seen Dabao, and Yu Xiaobao was a very smart child. He couldn’t slip up in front of Wen Jin.
Moreover, she had already changed the birthdates of the two children, so there shouldn’t be any unexpected revelations.
With that in mind, Yu Anwan gradually calmed down.
“Mommy, I’ll go to sleep now. Goodnight, Mommy!” Yu Xiaobao tiptoed and kissed Yu Anwan.
As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Xiaobao slipped back into bed and tucked herself in obediently. She peeked her head out and smiled at Yu Anwan.
Such a smile was so sweet that it melted one’s heart.
“Mommy, I love you!” Yu Xiaobao blew a kiss at Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan didn’t say anything. She quickly turned off the lights and walked out of the room.
After leaving the room, Yu Anwan headed towards her guest room. She planned to take a shower to calm herself down before facing Wen Jin’s questions.
Moreover, her body was dirty, which made Yu Anwan feel especially uncomfortable.
As soon as she returned to her room, Yu Anwan didn’t overthink it. She grabbed her phone and went straight to the bathroom.
She first called Yu Dabao and sighed in relief after confirming that Yu Dabao hadn’t been discovered.
“Could you guys not scare me like this next time? My heart is weak!” Yu Anwan complained.
“Then don’t let Daddy answer Mommy’s calls,” Yu Dabao raised his eyebrows.
“You… Stinky Dabao! I fell asleep, accidentally!” Yu Anwan gritted her teeth, trying to salvage her pride.
“Oh,” Yu Dabao responded, drawing out his voice as if he didn’t quite believe Yu Anwan’s explanation.
“I fell asleep!” Yu Anwan emphasized once again.
“Mommy, this just proves how much you trust Daddy. Otherwise, how could you fall asleep so easily?” Yu Dabao teased, smirking.
“After all, Mommy is very vigilant, right?” Yu Dabao added, implying that Yu Anwan seemed to have let her guard down completely in front of Wen Jin.
Yu Anwan, feeling somewhat insulted, was left speechless.
Were these kids from the current generation so challenging to deal with?
Sighing in frustration, she said, “Dabao, you must not love me anymore!”
“Oh,” Yu Dabao responded casually. “Xiaobao has a fever, but it’s not too serious. Take care of her tonight, and make sure she drinks plenty of water. She’s not fond of water. Tomorrow morning, ask Daddy to prepare something light for her. She’ll be fine in a couple of days. You must take care of Xiaobao for these two days.”
Yu Anwan had no words to reply with.
Were they even talking about the same issue?
“By the way, don’t worry about me. I can manage just fine on my own. Besides, Xiaobao isn’t here, so I can enjoy some peace, ” Yu Dabao said, sounding somewhat disdainful of the mother-daughter. “When you’ve had your fun, come back. Don’t rush.”
Yu Anwan, who was far from having any fun, was speechless.
“Unless there’s anything else, I’ll hang up now. Goodnight, Mommy?” Yu Dabao concluded the call, actually hanging up on her.
Yu Anwan was left fuming.
She angrily tossed her phone aside, undressed, and stormed into the shower. Within moments, the sound of running water could be heard from the shower room.
Twenty minutes later, Yu Anwan had finished her shower, her hair still damp.
Upon stepping out of the shower room, she was startled to realize that she hadn’t brought anything with her. She had entered empty-handed.
Now, there was nothing on Yu Anwan’s body except for a towel.
What was even more alarming was that Yu Anwan had rushed to the Wen family’s house without any prior preparations, given her concern for Wen Zhanyan’s condition.
so…
Yu Anwan couldn’t help but lose her composure.
However, she quickly took a deep breath and decided to go to the guest room to search for some makeshift pajamas. But to her surprise, as soon as she stepped out, she encountered Wen Jin right in front of her.
Yu Anwan stared at Wen Jin in astonishment.
Compared to Yu Anwan’s current state, Wen Jin looked composed and sophisticated, which made the atmosphere even more ambiguous.
Wen Jin’s gaze settled on Yu Anwan, growing heavier, as if he had never considered hiding his desires from her and had deliberately revealed them..
