Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

"The medicine is bitter, so give the candy to my aunt, and she won't be bitter anymore."

"Thank you Chu Lin. Auntie must take the medicine obediently. After taking the medicine and then eating the candy given by Chu Lin, she will not feel bitter anymore."

Chulin nodded seriously: "Auntie likes to eat. Chulin will bring candies to auntie tomorrow."

After the children left, Xu Wanning looked at the candy in her palm with a faint smile on her lips.

This kind of small detail that few people pay attention to in life can better reflect that she is loved by others.

She is very happy.

After sending the children home, Lin An came to the hospital again.

"Mom, Aning is awake now and is fine. You can go home and have a rest. I will stay with Aning."

"Yes, Mom, you have been really tired in the past few days. Go back and have a good sleep. Can you come back to stay with me tomorrow?"

Xu's mother had no choice but to nod: "Okay, I'll go back first. Whatever you want to eat in the afternoon, mom will prepare it and send it to the hospital for you."

"Anything is fine, as long as it's made by mom, I like to eat it."

After Xu's mother left, Lin An sat on the stool by the window, holding Xu Wanning's hand, "Why didn't you hide in the secret base if you knew there was danger?"

"If I said I forgot, would you believe me?"

It’s not like I really forgot, but it’s true that I didn’t realize it.

Because Li Qianqian's speed is too fast.

What's more, with Xu Wanning's level of caution, it was impossible for her to reveal her biggest secret while being surrounded by several "enemies". Doesn't that mean that she took the initiative to give up her handle?

Lin An sighed: "I always thought that since you have a secret base, you don't have to worry too much about your safety, but now that I think about it, it is not safe to rely on those external objects. Otherwise, I will give you..."

"Stop it!" Xu Wanning interrupted Lin An's unfinished words: "I know what you want to say, but it is absolutely impossible. What level do I deserve to have someone to protect me?"

"Now the research on hybrid rice is at its most critical time. As the most important researcher, shouldn't you be well protected?"

"But, I'm not used to living under surveillance all the time."

Even if she knew that the so-called surveillance was actually to protect her safety, Xu Wanning still couldn't accept it.

After all, she has too many secrets that cannot be made public.

If she was accidentally exposed at some point, her situation would be in danger.

Therefore, no matter how Lin An tried to persuade her, Xu Wanning never let go.

"I promise you, I will never act alone in the future, and if this happens again, I will not take risks alone."

It was too difficult for Lin An to understand Xu Wanning's character. She usually seemed easy to talk to, but in fact she had a stubborn personality. As long as she made a good decision, it was basically difficult for her to change her mind.

Helpless, Lin An could only follow her.

During the few days I was hospitalized, people in the ward came to visit me every day.

Although she knew that everyone had good intentions, Xu Wanning was still not used to the feeling of being watched.

Lin An understood her discomfort, so when someone asked to visit again, he refused because Xu Wanning was not feeling well and needed to rest.

Except for the Xu family and the Lin family, no other outsiders were seen.

At noon, Lin An went to the cafeteria to get food, while Xu Wanning sat on the bedside reading a book.

The door to the ward was pushed open from the outside. Xu Wanning raised her head. When she saw Tao Jingjing walking in with a sad face, she closed the book in her hand and asked softly: "Sister Jingjing, you don't look very happy, are you?" Didn't something happen?"

Tao Jingjing pursed her lips and sat down next to Xu Wanning. After much hesitation, she finally plucked up the courage to speak.

"Aning, I came to you today because I want your help with something. I know you haven't fully recovered yet, and I shouldn't bother you, but I really don't know what to do, Silai If I want to go, I have to shamelessly come to you."

Based on Xu Wanning's understanding of Tao Jingjing, she would never ask for help if she hadn't encountered something very urgent and difficult.

"Sister Jingjing, given the relationship between us, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. If you have any questions, just tell me directly."

Tao Jingjing said with red eyes: "Originally, after we returned to the capital from Dajiang Village, we had already agreed on the wedding date, which was set on the twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month. But something happened to you suddenly, so your parents wanted to postpone the wedding date. We’ll get married next month.”

Worried that Xu Wanning would misunderstand her meaning, Tao Jingjing hurriedly explained: "Under normal circumstances, it would be okay to get married a month later. I wouldn't mind at all. But now...I..."

Those words were too difficult for Tao Jingjing to say. She didn't know how to speak, so she could only subconsciously place her hand on her flat belly.

"Aning, I can't wait. I don't want to get married with the reputation of getting pregnant out of wedlock. I don't want to be looked down upon anymore."

"Sister Jingjing, you..." Xu Wanning was also caught off guard by the sudden news: "How long has it been? Does everyone in the family know? Have you done all the examinations that should be done?"

"Judging from the time, it has been more than a month. Before we went to the Black Province for the New Year, we were alone one night and couldn't hold it in anymore, so... I have already checked and confirmed that your third brother knows about this. , but both parents don’t know yet.”

Really, Tao Jingjing didn't know what to say.

She has grown up by the rules since she was a child, and has always been what others call a good child.

But who would have thought that good children would sometimes deviate from the norm, not only getting divorced, but also getting pregnant before marriage.

If this spreads out, wouldn't it just be rubbing his face on the ground?

Xu Wanning also knew that in this era, being pregnant before marriage was a disgraceful thing.

Although Tao Jingjing and Xu Maoying have set a wedding date, the pregnancy cycle cannot withstand inference.

If it was only for one month, the child could still be excused for being born prematurely, but if the wedding was postponed for another month, the excuse for premature birth would no longer be valid.

Tao Jingjing didn't want to be someone else's after-dinner conversation piece, which Xu Wanning could understand.

She could understand Tao Jingjing's situation very well.

"Sister Jingjing, don't worry. I'll find a way to get out of the hospital at noon tomorrow. I'll talk to my aunt and don't postpone the wedding."

"My father proposed the postponement of the wedding. He said that he knew that there were many people with ulterior motives lurking in the country, and he could not calm down and prepare for my wedding unless those people were caught."

"Coupled with your injury, everyone was worried that you would not be able to attend the wedding, so they agreed to postpone the wedding."

"Aning, I'm sorry, I...I really don't know what to do..."
