....Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xu Mingzhi’s expression softened, and her tone was extremely soft. “Then I won’t nag you anymore. Do whatever you feel comfortable doing.”
A second ago, she was as strict as a female military instructor, but the next second, when she heard that her daughter was not feeling well, she was the one without principles.
Su Ji smiled and rested her chin on her shoulder. She looked at the door. “Did dad send you here?”
Xu Mingzhi paused for a moment and coughed guiltily. “I drove here herself. We met downstairs.”
“Did you drive here?” Su Ji’s lips curved into a deep smile. “Then where are your car keys?”
“Car keys…” Xu Mingzhi choked and knocked the back of her head. “You little thing, have your wings grown? You even dare to control your mother.”
Su Cunyi was talking about serious matters. When his gaze met Su Ji’s, he immediately revealed a subservient smile.
Pei Huai followed his gaze and looked at Su Ji. Then, his lips curved into a smile.
Subconsciously.
Su Ji sniffed the fragrance that was unique to her mother that was coming from Xu Mingzhi’s body.
The fragrance was magical. It did not come from any perfume. Su Ji clearly lived under the same roof as her and used the same shampoo and shower gel, but she did not have the fragrance she had. The fragrance would linger in the room she had stayed in, on the lychees she had peeled herself, and in the clothes she had brought from the laundry room for her daughter…
It was a fragrance that belonged to her mother, exactly the same as in her previous life. That fragrance could connect Su Ji’s entire childhood memories.
She wondered if her children would have special memories of her scent in the future.
Pei Huai had indeed said that she had a unique body fragrance.
Su Ji sniffed greedily and joked in a volume that only the two of them could hear. “If you’ve decided to forgive him, just be straightforward. After all, even if you two remarry on the spot immediately, it’ll be considered a twilight romance.”
Xu Mingzhi pulled her away and questioned her in an exaggerated tone, “oh my G.o.d, baby, are you complaining that I’m getting old now? Your mom’s health is so good. It won’t be a problem for her to live another two hundred years, okay?”
Su Ji raised her eyebrows and asked, “did you forget that I took you to the emergency room last month because you had a cold?”
Xu Mingzhi laughed and grabbed her bag to get up. “That’s because you’re making a mountain out of a molehill. I already said that it’s fine!”
Su Cunyi noticed and stopped the conversation between the two men. “Are you leaving?”
When Xu Mingzhi turned around. She did not forget to tuck her daughter in. “Let’s go!”
Her tone was so harsh that Su Ji thought she was really angry.
In the next second, Xu Mingzhi said, “I’ll come back tomorrow!”
Su Ji laughed involuntarily.
Xu Mingzhi couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
However, after leaving her daughter’s ward, Xu Mingzhi tapped her temples and the corners of her mouth sank.
The hospital environment was very good, and the doctor had also given a solution. However, she could not explain why, but she could not help but feel worried.
She searched for the source of that worry.
Maybe it was because…when she transmigrated, her original body was already born, and her daughter’s child was only conceived after she came here.
Not only that, her daughter even brought the child to the Great Shang and then returned.
Su Cunyi reminded her that the elevator had arrived. “Don’t worry. We’ll come and see our daughter tomorrow.”
Xu Mingzhi rubbed her forehead in frustration and turned around to enter the elevator.
On the first night of her hospitalization, Su Ji woke up from a nightmare.
She had never had such a terrible and ominous nightmare. When she woke up, she was covered in cold sweat.
She didn’t scream. When she woke up, she quickly sat up on the bed without making much noise. However, three seconds later, the light in the room next door lit up.
Following that was the sound of footsteps. Then, the door handle was turned and the door was pulled open from the inside. Seeing her sitting there with a pale face, the veins on Pei Huai’s forehead throbbed as he quickly walked to her bedside.
He pulled her into his arms without any explanation, and his warm palm gently comforted the back of her neck.
It was a hot and humid summer, but her body was so cold that it felt like she had just come out of an ice cellar.
Pei Huai carried her along with the blanket and sat her on his lap.
When he felt Su Ji’s breathing gradually stabilize, he pulled the blanket beside her face down, revealing her delicate but pale face. He asked in a low and hoa.r.s.e voice, “did you have a nightmare? What did you dream about?”
That voice was really rea.s.suring. It was more effective than any medicine.
Su Ji finally exhaled, and her body warmed up bit by bit. Her pitch-black eyes looked at him, hazy under the moonlight, and there was still a trace of red blood that had not faded.
She said, “I dreamed about…”
