After her ex-husband became a Hong Kong entertainment circle tycoon, he put his arm around her waist

Nan Shu found the number in her phone, her expression hesitant.

It was just a string of numbers, but Nan Shu knew it by heart and hadn't forgotten it in the past four years.

Nan Shu hadn't dialed that number since the divorce.

After struggling for a while, Nan Shu finally put her phone aside, her hand hanging limply at her sides, and sighed.

"Given Qi Yuye's personality, it would probably be even more difficult for him if he knew about this..."

Looking at Nuomi playing nearby, a figure popped into Nan Shu's mind.

She seemed like such a pure and innocent woman, yet she was so strict with her own children.

If I go to Lin Xi, will she agree?

Nan Shu took Enen and Nuomi back to the Qi family home. Lin Xi and Qi Yuye were no longer home.

The two children got along well, and as soon as they got home, they went to Nuomi's room to play with toys together.

Nan Shu mentally rehearsed how to bring up this matter with Lin Xi and how to get Lin Xi to agree to let Nuomi help Enen with blood transfusion treatment.

Nan Shu sat in the living room waiting until evening when a click suddenly came from the doorway.

Nan Shu's nerves tensed instantly. She turned to look at the door, a hint of anticipation in her eyes that she herself was unaware of.

As soon as Lin Xi entered the house, she saw Nan Shu sitting on the sofa in the living room, staring intently at the doorway.

Noticing Nan Shu's gaze, Lin Qi frowned almost imperceptibly.

Is she waiting for Qi Yuye?

Lin Xi was somewhat wary, and looked at Nan Shu without saying a word.

After what happened yesterday, their relationship is now out in the open. Plus, since Qi Yuye isn't home right now, there's no need for them to pretend they have a good relationship.

Just as Lin Xi was struggling with this internal conflict, Nan Shu suddenly spoke up.

"You're back. There's something I'd like to talk to you about."

"What is it?"

Lin Xi remained wary.

Nan Shu looked at Lin Xi with a sincere expression.

"When I took Nuomi to the hospital for a checkup today, we found out that Nuomi's blood type matches Enen's. I'm thinking of having Nuomi donate some blood to Enen; just a little bit can save Enen's life. What do you think..."

"impossible."

Before Nan Shu could finish speaking, Lin Xi decisively refused.

Lin Xi's expression remained calm as he looked at Nan Shu's anxious expression, which immediately relieved his anger.

"I am Nuomi's mother, after all. How could a responsible mother let her daughter do something that might harm her health?"

These were the words Nan Shu used to teach Lin Xi a lesson yesterday, and now Lin Xi has returned them all to her.

Nan Shu stiffened, but still forced herself to explain for the sake of "uh-huh".

"I've asked the doctor, and he said it won't cause much harm to my body. If it could endanger the safety of the glutinous rice, I would never have mentioned it."

As she spoke, Nan Shu quickly walked up to Lin Xi and reached out to grab Lin Xi's arm.

"If you hate me, you can do whatever you want with me, as long as you can help me, uh-huh!"

"What are you doing?"

Lin Xi sneered, feeling extremely pleased to see Nan Shu so humble.

"I told you, I won't let you harm Nuomi in the slightest, so don't even think about it!"

Lin Xi forcefully shook off Nan Shu's hand.

Caught off guard, Nan Shu was pushed aside by Lin Xi and, losing her balance, crashed into the mysterious doorway.

As soon as Qi Yuye opened the door, he saw Nan Shu fall towards the doorway.

He instinctively reached out and steadily supported Nan Shu.

The familiar touch made Qi Yuye unconsciously tighten his grip.

Nan Shu had prepared herself for the pain to come, but unexpectedly she was supported by a pair of steady hands.

Noticing that the hands gripping her were tightening, Nan Shu shifted awkwardly to the side, freeing herself from Qi Yuye's tight hold.

Noticing that Nan Shu's eyes were red, as if she had been crying, Qi Yuye frowned slightly.

"What happened?"

Nan Shu didn't realize that Qi Yuye's question was directed at her; she simply stood aside without saying a word.

Qi Yuye knew that Nan Shu was very stubborn and that no one could get her to talk about things she didn't want to, so he looked up at Lin Xi.

"What happened?"

Judging from their expressions, it seems that something unpleasant has just happened.

Qi Yuye pressed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

Seeing that Qi Yuye seemed to care about Nan Shu, Lin Xi's alarm bells went off.

She stamped her foot and looked at Qi Yuye with a hint of reproach.

"You still have the nerve to say that? Today I said I would personally take Nuomi to the hospital for a check-up, but you insisted that she go instead."

"She just told me that Nuomi should donate blood to save her son, saying that Nuomi's blood type matches her son's. I'm starting to suspect that she deliberately took Nuomi to the hospital..."

Upon hearing Lin Xi's words, Nan Shu suddenly looked up.

"I don't!"

Nuomi is so cute, how could she have deliberately set her sights on Nuomi from the very beginning?

Upon hearing Lin Xi's words, Qi Yuye surprisingly remained silent.

He was somewhat surprised, but his gaze remained calm and unwavering as he quietly watched Nan Shu, seemingly lost in thought.

"Yu Ye, I don't think it's appropriate to let them stay here any longer. I'm worried that Nuomi might be in danger."

Lin Xi shook Qi Yuye's arm, trying to use this reason to get Nan Shu to leave the Qi family.

"What if she sneaks away with Nuomi while we're not home? I can't let such a danger remain around Nuomi!"

"Ms. Lin, you can dislike me, but you can't question my character!"

Nan Shu was unwilling to be framed for these unfounded crimes, and looked at Lin Xi with red eyes to argue.

"Dad, Mom, what's wrong?"

Nuomi and Enen heard the argument outside and ran out one after the other.

Seeing that Nan Shu was emotional, Nuomi instinctively ran towards her to comfort her.

Before Nuomi could run over, Lin Xi grabbed her.

"Don't go over there, she's a bad person."

Lin Qi bowed his head and gave Nuomi instructions.

"From now on, when I'm not home, you shouldn't be alone with her."

"Auntie isn't a bad person, she's very good to Nuomi!"

Although Nuomi didn't understand what had happened, upon hearing her mother say this, she immediately explained for Nan Shu in her childish voice.

Enen, standing to the side, also shielded Nan Shu behind her, glaring at Lin Xi with a wary expression.

"Mom isn't a bad person, Mom is the best person in the world!"

Qi Yuye's gaze swept over Enen and Nuomi's faces, and after a moment he suddenly spoke.

"It's not impossible for Nuomi to donate blood to Enen, but we need to ask Nuomi's opinion and also see how you perform."

Qi Yuye bent down to look at Nuomi, his tone gentler than Nan Shu had ever seen before.

"Nuomi, Hmm is sick and needs a blood transfusion to help him. Are you willing?"

Nuomi glanced at the "hmm" and nodded decisively.

"I do!"

Qi Yuye reached out and ruffled Nuomi's hair, then looked at Lin Qi beside him.

"Take Nuomi back and rest first. I have something to ask her."

Although Lin Xi was unwilling, Qi Yuye had already spoken, so she couldn't say anything and could only leave with Nuomi.

Only Qi Yuye and Nan Shu remained in the large living room.

Qi Yuye's gaze fell on Nan Shu's face, his eyes filled with inquiry.

"You just said that Hmm and Nuomi's blood type match?"

"Nan Shu, whose child is it, Hmm?"
