The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the ward through the gap in the curtains. Huo Yanshen rubbed his eyes tiredly. He had not slept all night and had been guarding Su Wanwan's bed. Looking at his wife's pale face, he felt both worried and self-blame.

At this moment, Su Wanwan moved slightly and slowly opened her eyes.

"Yan Shen..." Her voice was weak and hoarse.

Huo Yanshen immediately moved closer and gently stroked her cheek, "I'm here, don't worry. How do you feel?"

Su Wanwan forced a smile, "Much better. But..." Her hand unconsciously stroked her lower abdomen, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

Huo Yanshen held her hand and said firmly: "The doctor said that as long as you rest well, the baby will be fine. Your most important task now is to take care of the baby with peace of mind, and leave everything else to me."

As he was talking, the attending doctor came in. After checking Su Wanwan's various indicators, he showed a gratified smile on his face.

"The situation is much better than last night," the doctor said, "but the next week is still critical. Mrs. Su must strictly rest in bed and avoid any strenuous activities and emotional fluctuations."

Huo Yanshen nodded seriously, "I understand. I will make sure she gets the best care."

After the doctor left, Su Wanwan asked softly: "Yan Shen, what about the company..."

Huo Yanshen interrupted her, "Don't think about that. I'm in charge of the company. Your only task now is to have a good rest and take good care of yourself and the child."

Su Wanwan wanted to say something, but when she saw her husband's determined eyes, she finally nodded.

At this moment, there was a light knock on the door of the ward. Huo Yanshen frowned and went to open the door, and found that it was Assistant Lin standing outside the door with a pile of documents in his hand.

"Mr. Huo, I'm sorry to bother you," Assistant Lin whispered, "but the board of directors..."

Huo Yanshen waved his hand to signal him to be quiet, then walked out of the ward and closed the door gently.

"What's going on?" he asked in a low voice.

Assistant Lin took a deep breath. “After the board learned about President Su’s situation, someone proposed to temporarily revoke her position as vice president. They believed that President Su was not competent for the job under such circumstances.”

Huo Yanshen's eyes flashed with anger, but soon he regained his composure. He pondered for a moment and said, "Tell the board that I will handle this matter personally. Now, give me the most urgent documents and I will handle them here."

Assistant Lin hesitated for a moment, "Mr. Huo, are you sure? You haven't slept all night..."

Huo Yanshen waved his hands, "It's okay, I can handle it. Wanwan and the child need me more."

After Assistant Lin left, Huo Yanshen tiptoed back to the ward. Seeing Su Wanwan resting with her eyes closed, he quietly sat down in the corner of the room and began to handle the company's affairs.

Time passed by, and Huo Yanshen rushed back and forth between taking care of Su Wanwan and handling company affairs. Whenever Su Wanwan fell asleep, he would bury himself in a pile of documents; and as long as Su Wanwan woke up, he would immediately put down his work and accompany her wholeheartedly.

In the evening, Su Wanwan woke up from her nap and saw Huo Yanshen working at the small table in the ward. She couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Yan Shen," she called softly, "it's time for you to take a rest."

Huo Yanshen raised his head and showed a tired but gentle smile, "I'm fine, how do you feel? Do you need anything?"

Su Wanwan shook her head and said, "I'm fine, but you..." She hesitated to speak.

Huo Yanshen walked to the bedside and held her hand. "Don't worry about me. As long as you and the child are safe, it doesn't matter if I stay up all night."

At this moment, Huo Yanshen's phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and his face changed slightly.

"It's Cheng Yuan," he explained to Su Wanwan, "I'll go out and pick him up."

Huo Yanshen walked out of the ward and answered the phone.

"Mr. Huo, I heard that Mrs. Su was hospitalized. Is she doing okay?" Cheng Yuan's voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding very concerned.

Huo Yanshen replied cautiously: "Thank you for your concern, she is in stable condition now. Is there anything wrong, Mr. Cheng?"

Cheng Yuan was silent for a moment, then said: "Actually, I want to tell you that I have decided to temporarily withdraw the previous merger proposal. Considering the current situation, I think you need time to deal with personal affairs."

Huo Yanshen's heart tightened, he keenly felt that Cheng Yuan's words were full of meaning. But at the moment, he really had no time to care about it.

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Cheng," Huo Yanshen replied cautiously, "We will discuss this in detail once the situation stabilizes."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yan took a deep breath. He knew that Cheng Yuan's concession might only be temporary, and a bigger storm might be brewing. But at this moment, he just wanted to focus on protecting his wife and unborn child.

Returning to the ward, Huo Yanshen saw Su Wanwan looking at him with concern.

"Is that Cheng Yuan?" she asked softly, "Is there any problem with the company?"

Huo Yanshen shook his head, sat down beside the bed, and stroked her cheek. "Don't worry, everything is under control. The only thing you have to do now is to rest well and take care of your body."

Su Wanwan stared at her husband's tired face, feeling guilty, "I'm sorry, Yan Shen. Because of me, you have to deal with so many things at the same time..."

Huo Yanshen gently interrupted her, "Silly girl, you and the child are the most important to me. I can handle the company's affairs, you just need to rest assured and take care of the baby."

Looking at her husband's determined eyes, Su Wanwan was moved to tears. She gently held Huo Yanshen's hand and whispered, "Yan Shen, thank you. I promise that I will take good care of myself and the child."

Huo Yanshen leaned over and kissed her on the forehead gently, "Together, we can definitely get through this difficult time."

As night fell, the ward gradually became quiet. Huo Yanshen still sat by the bed, guarding Su Wanwan closely. Although he was exhausted, he felt full of strength when he saw his wife sleeping peacefully.
