"Clang clang!"
Nanny Zhang finally let go of her hand when the clock in the hall rang 10 times. She looked at Wen Zhixia with a gentle light in her eyes.
"It's already so late. Nanny Zhang, you should go to bed early!"
It was only after she had a deeper understanding of the situation that she found out that the girl in front of her did not know about the girls that she had met. She somewhat understood how much her young master appreciated her.
Wen Zhixia hadn't talked to anyone for a long time. Ever since her mother had left and her father had fallen ill, she had taken care of her family at the age where she should have enjoyed her parents' care the most.
She spent all her time working, going to school, taking care of her father in bed, and no one knew what had happened to her. She stood up again, tears on the back of her hands, having experienced so many crises.
Today, she happily shared things that she might not have understood in the past. She spoke freely and confidently in front of an old man, and only then did she release the grievances she had towards her parents from the bottom of her heart.
"Good girl, you did well!"
Nanny Zhang was also moved by Wen Zhixia's story. Every person had their own story, but what others saw was obvious on the side. They didn't know the sadness behind the smile. She gently patted her thin back.
Who would have thought that this little girl would actually carry a family?
"Thank you!"
The phrase "you did well" caused the tears that Wen Zhixia had been holding back to rustle. Sometimes, when her taut strings were touched, there would be a chain reaction.
She cried in Nanny Zhang's arms. She wished that the one holding her was her mother. The one in her memory was so warm, as if it could protect her from the rain and wind.
The person standing on the stairs looked down at the two people below. The person looking down at Nanny Zhang shook his head slightly at the sight of her and didn't go down. It was as if he was looking at God.
His tight mouth betrayed emotion. He had heard it from beginning to end, and it wasn't as alarming as the financial reports he was familiar with. Behind each of those numbers were the events that affected the world.
However, it was just these small daily things that sounded easy to hear. For the first time, he felt that something was amiss. He did not expect to understand a person's life so easily.
"What else do you have that I don't know?"
That smiling and tear-stained face flashed in front of his eyes. Compared to her exquisite appearance, Wen Zhixia's crying face made him feel especially sad.
He turned around, his brow furrowed as if he was making an extremely difficult decision. He returned to his study and picked up the phone.
When she felt the heat on her cheeks, Wen Zhixia slowly opened her eyes, her fingers blocking her view. It seemed that after a period of time, the redness in her eyes became normal. She then remembered that this was another place.
"Ugh …" "Ah …
The unexpected hoarseness of her voice made her unable to speak. Only then did she vaguely see a kind face smiling at her.
"Miss Wen, don't say anything for now. You have a fever, rest well."
Dr Zhang was called over for Rong Manor early in the morning due to someone's chain attack. It was just a simple cold, and in Chinese medicine, it could be said to be a result of his heart being opened.
After she finished speaking, Dr Zhang's eyes looked towards a direction slightly. Wen Zhixia naturally followed the line of sight, and a person vaguely appeared in her eyes. With a blurry light, that person sat in the big chair proudly like a lonely emperor.
She couldn't make out the man's expression, but she guessed that his displeasure made her heart beat a little faster.
"Leave immediately."
There was a trace of anger in Dr Zhang's cold voice. It was rare for him to smile so happily. However, he still packed up his stuff and walked out under an easy stare.
"You …"
Wen Zhixia didn't know what to say, but her heart was full when she saw Yi Yi calling Dr Zhang. Her eyes were misty.
"Take good care of yourself."
Even Nanny Zhang was amused by Easy's awkward look as she sat quietly in her seat watching Wen Zhixia for more than half an hour as if she wanted to say something like that.
It had been many years since she had seen her young master like this. She had a smile on her face, but Sujin, who was standing at the side, gritted her teeth.
"If you have the strength to say thank you, then don't get sick and pretend to look weak!"
Sujin's words were like a hard knife, causing Wen Zhixia to experience her anger. However, she looked at Sujin in confusion. Ever since she entered the Rong Manor, she had never interacted with Sujin before.
"Sujin, stop talking. Go back down to the kitchen and busy yourself."
Nanny Zhang frowned slightly when she saw Sujin's reaction. She did not understand why Sujin, who did not have any evil intentions, had a faint malicious feeling to her when she spoke.
"Hmph, don't let me find out that you are feigning sickness!"
"Sujin!"
Under Nanny Zhang's urging, Sujin reluctantly walked out of the room. Wen Zhixia frowned slightly, unsure of what to say.
"Don't bother with Sujin's words. She's always been stupid. Don't think too much about it!"
Nanny Zhang patted Wen Zhixia's hand to comfort her. Actually, Nanny Zhang knew that Sujin's words were not only brainless, but had also exceeded her responsibility. This made her worry. She should be talking about her.
"None... "I didn't …"
Wen Zhixia's eyelids drooped, making her fall asleep just like that.
When she saw Wen Zhixia fall asleep, Nanny Zhang lightly tucked her in before leaving the room. However, just as she closed the door, she saw a figure sneakily standing in front of the study room.
"Where are you doing it?"
He saw the figure fleeing in a hurry and walking down the stairs. It turned out to be Sujin!
"What happened, Nanny Zhang?"
The door to the study room was suddenly opened. Chen Yu's solemn face was met with Nanny Zhang's thoughtful expression. He asked with concern.
"It's nothing. I was wrong when there was a servant who was lazy, so I just criticized him a little! Assistant Chen, go discuss some matters with the Young Master! "
Nanny Zhang waved her hand, gesturing for Chen Yu to go back. She was still thinking about the scene just now and Sujin eavesdropping on her young master's conversation. This discovery made her think of the previous phone call.
She hid her words deep in her heart, unable to bear to tell the matter to her young master first. She wanted to find out what Sujin had to say before she could explain it to her.
"Young master, there was an eavesdropping outside the door just now!"
Chen Yu closed the door and retracted his expression. He quietly reported everything that he had just seen to the person behind the desk.
An easy look flashed across his eyes, and he inserted his Rong Manor into his body. This was a signal to declare war in advance, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a dangerous smile.
