Nan Xun stayed in the hospital to take care of Tang Mo.

  When only the two of them were left in the ward, Tang Mo, who had woken up, raised his eyebrows and looked at her. “What did you do to make my family stand on your side?”


  Nan Xun was peeling fruits, looking down quietly. Hearing his words, she did not say anything and focused on the fruit in her hand.

  Tang Mo looked at her unhappily. “Don’t think that I’ll treat you differently just because you stayed to take care of me!”


  Nan Xun remained silent.

  After a while, she was done peeling the apple.

  She brought the fruit platter to Tang Mo. “Do you want some?”


  Tang Mo glanced at it. She was peeling rabbit apples.

  She looked inexplicably cute.

  “Didn’t you hear the doctor say that I can only eat liquid food recently?”


  Nan Xun hummed and took a bite of the rabbit apple.

  “It’s quite sweet.” She smiled at him.

  She rarely smiled. She was a typical career woman. After finding out about his accident last night, she had rushed over and was dressed simply. She was wearing a white knitted shirt and a pair of loose jeans. Her shoulder-length hair was casually draped over her shoulders and she had no makeup on her face. When she smiled like this, she looked a little good.

  Perhaps it was because her teeth were clean and even.

  Tang Mo turned his head away, planning to ignore him.

  Nan Xun did not mind. She played soft music in the ward and then started to work with the notebook sent by her secretary.

  Tang Mo could not fall asleep and turned back to look at the woman sitting on the stool by the bed.

  When she was working, she wore rimless glasses.

  Her eyes were focused on the computer screen, her slightly pink lips pursed tightly, looking a little stiff and serious.

  Of course, he also understood that if the strong woman in the workplace paid too much attention to her appearance, people would think that she was just a pretty face and would not show her ability, which would also let men take advantage of her.

  “I want to drink water.” Tang Mo was unhappy with her. She had stayed here willingly, so he did not have to be polite to her.

  Nan Xun put down the computer, poured a glass of water, and stood by the bed. She bent down with a cotton swab and wet his lips with the water.

  This action brought them very close to each other.

  Tang Mo realized that this woman’s eyelashes were quite long. He did not know if it was because he had looked at her for a long time, but he realized that she was not so ugly that he could not look at her directly.

  Nan Xun felt Tang Mo’s gaze and glanced at him.

  He smirked devilishly. “Why? Are you smitten by me?”


  If it was in the past, she would definitely scold him.

  But today, she said nothing and only did what she was doing patiently.

  Tang Mo felt that she had taken the wrong medicine today and was acting a little strange.

  “Is it enough?” Her voice sounded gentler than usual.

  Tang Mo said, “What’s wrong with you today? Did you really fall for me?”


  Nan Xun said, “No.”


  Tang Mo raised his eyebrows. “Are you doing your part as a wife to see me get into an accident?”


  Nan Xun said, “If you say so!”


  Damn it, the woman who usually argued with him was so easy to talk to today.

  “That’s enough.”
……

  Because of the doctor’s instructions, she could only eat and drink on the bed for the next two weeks.

  Naturally, Tang Mo would not let Nan Xun do it. Mrs Tang sent an older male servant over.

  At this time, Nan Xun would usually go out.

  After Nan Xun went out, she received a international call. She did not notice that someone had entered the ward.

  Tang Mo had already finished relieving himself and was lying on the bed, preparing to rest.

  Hearing the sound of high heels outside the door, he looked up.

  The woman who came in was wearing a fitted cheongsam with a mink skin camisole. Her wavy long hair was exquisite and noble.

  The woman was Father Tang’s mistress and Tang Xu’s mother.

  She had taken good care of herself and had given birth to Tang Xu at the age of eighteen. She looked to be in her early thirties.

  Tang Mo’s expression darkened when he saw his daughter. “What are you doing here?”


  Her mother had almost committed suicide for this woman before. Tang Mo hated her to the core. Later, this woman became more obedient after being warned by the Old Master.

  He did not expect her to dare to appear here today.

  The woman was called Liu Xiu and looked gentle and pleasant. At first glance, she looked well-educated, virtuous, and sensible.

  But she had been by Father Tang’s side for many years and had even raised her illegitimate son. It was enough to see this woman’s ability.

  Liu Xiu put the nutritional supplements on the table and turned back to look at Tang Mo, who had an unfriendly expression. She said softly, “Auntie heard that you got into an accident and was too worried. I couldn’t sleep well at night and wanted to come and see you.”


  “I hope you don’t blame Auntie for coming so suddenly.”


  “Who are you? You’re just a shameless mistress. How dare you come to see your son? Scram!”


  Liu Xiu looked at Tang Mo with heartache. “Why are you so angry? I asked Master yesterday and the doctor told him that you have to rest well and not take things too hard.”


  “Why would I do that?”


  Liu Xiu shook her head and looked panicked. “N-Nothing.”


  Her tone and gaze made people feel suspicious.

  “Just say it.”


  “It’s nothing. I came to see you.” Liu Xiu glanced at his calf. “Sometimes, people have to be more open-minded. I’ve experienced a lot in my life. As long as I’m open-minded, I’ll be happy!”


  Tang Mo wanted to curse. This woman was not only thick-skinned, but also crazy!

  She lived happily because of his mother’s pain!

  “B*tch, get out!”


  Liu Xiu’s eyes turned red and she left pitifully.

  Tang Mo lay on the bed and thought of his family’s seriousness and Nan Xun’s abnormal behavior recently after he woke up.

  Nan Xun was not the kind of person who would hold back. For the past two days, she had not gone to work and had been taking care of him in the hospital. She even had to endure his bad temper. This was really unreasonable!

  Nan Xun returned to the ward after the call and saw the man lying on the bed looking at the ceiling. She went forward. “Your forehead is sweating. Is it very hot?”


  Tang Mo glanced sideways at Nan Xun.

  That gaze was so unfamiliar that Nan Xun was a little afraid.

  “Why aren’t you at work? I’ll be discharged soon. I don’t need you to stay here.”


  Nan Xun said, “In the eyes of outsiders, I’m still your wife. Your accident made the shares of Tang Corporation unstable. I can stabilize the situation here.”


  Tang Mo’s lips curled up and his words were like thorns, making people feel uncomfortable. “Don’t think too much of yourself. Without you, I can still live well and Tang Corporation can still operate.”


  Nan Xun did not want to argue with him and turned to enter the bathroom.

  She took out a basin of warm water from inside, wrung the towel dry and wiped the sweat on his forehead.

  He waved her hand away, disgust in his eyes. “I don’t need your hypocrisy. Nan Xun, I know you hate this forced marriage as much as I do. There are no outsiders here. You don’t have to act.”.
