Fu Bao stared at the people in the ward, watching her mother and that uncle together, laughing so happily, and tightened her grip on Fu Yanci's neck.

He looked at his father and, sure enough, saw some sadness on his father's face.

Fu Bao loves her mother very much, but her father is even more pitiful.

And... it seems Mom never intended to come back.

She probably really doesn't like her father and him anymore, and doesn't want them anymore.

"dad……"

Fu Bao hugged her father's neck tightly, "You still have Fu Bao, Fu Bao will always love Daddy."

Upon hearing the child's words, Fu Yanci felt as if a whole lemon had been stuffed into his heart, causing him intense sourness.

He pressed his hand against Fu Bao's face, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down before he could speak.

"Let's go home."

Wen Qingruan found it very funny as Chu Yunshen recounted the various bizarre things he encountered abroad, and her mood lightened considerably.

"I never imagined patient-patient relationships abroad could be so dramatic, I..."

As Wen Qingruan was speaking, she looked up and saw the person standing at the office door.

He abruptly stopped mid-sentence, and Chu Yun Shen looked at Wen Qing Ruan, "What's wrong?"

Following Wen Qingruan's gaze, Chu Yunshen also saw the person standing outside the door.

He assumed it was a patient who had come for a consultation.

"Please come in."

Fu Yanci glanced coldly at Wen Qingruan, and after a moment, he turned and left.

Wen Qingruan got up and followed.

"Fu Yanci!"

She called out his name.

Chu Yun Shen, unaware of what was going on, grabbed Wen Qing Ruan's down jacket and followed.

Emergency room lobby.

Wen Qingruan looked at the man in front of her.

Fu Yanci looked terrible, almost bloodless, and there was tape on her hands as she held Fu Bao.

It's obvious that they just finished an IV drip.

"Fu Yanci, where do you feel unwell? How are you feeling now?"

Wen Qingruan was still worried about him.

When they were together, Fu Yanci would endure his illness and was very reluctant to go to the hospital. Every time, Wen Qingruan would drag him to see a doctor.

Fu Yanci could sense Wen Qingruan's concern.

The resentment that had been building up in his heart dissipated considerably because of Wen Qingruan's words of concern.

He looked at Wen Qingruan, about to speak, when Chu Yunshen, who had rushed over, spoke first.

"Put on your coat, or you'll catch a cold."

Wen Qingruan was preoccupied with Fu Yanci and did not notice that Chu Yunshen's words were somewhat beyond the bounds of their relationship.

She took the coat without even saying "thank you," and just waited for Fu Yanci.

But Wen Qingruan didn't know how irritating her actions were to Fu Yanci.

Is this a declaration of how close they are?

A chill ran through Fu Yanci's eyes as Fu Bao spoke up.

"Dad, I want to go home."

Fu Yanci: "Yes, Daddy will take you home."

Neither the father nor the son paid any attention to Wen Qingruan and walked towards the door.

Wen Qingruan didn't realize that Fu Yanci was angry. She was so concerned that she assumed Fu Yanci was just pretending to be uncomfortable, like before.

"Fu Yanci, if you're sick, go to the hospital and get proper treatment! You still haven't told me where you feel unwell!"

In her anxiety, Wen Qingruan grabbed Fu Yanci's sleeve.

Fu Yanci looked down at the hand that Wen Qingruan was holding, his cold gaze sweeping down to Wen Qingruan's face.

The chill in those eyes instantly snapped Wen Qingruan back to reality, and she withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted.

Yes, how could she forget?

Fu Yanci loathed her to the extreme, so how could he possibly tolerate her touching him...

She composed herself and spoke softly.

"I was being nosy."

Chu Yun Shen noticed Wen Qing Ruan's disappointment. "Is this your friend?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanci looked at Wen Qingruan with a meaningful expression.

He was curious to know how Wen Qingruan planned to introduce herself and Fu Bao to her fiancé.

How could Wen Qingruan not understand the deeper meaning in Fu Yanci's eyes? He was warning her not to speak carelessly, and that he no longer wanted to have anything to do with her.

"us……"

Wen Qingruan paused, her hands clenched tightly at her sides to keep her voice from trembling.

"We knew each other before."

Hearing this answer, Fu Yanci was not surprised at all.

In front of her fiancé, she naturally had to distance herself from him.

Feeling Fu Bao shrink in his arms, Fu Yanci felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if he had been pricked by a needle.

What followed was a surge of anger.

Wen Qingruan, you may not care about my feelings, but what about our son? You don't even care about our child's feelings!

Chu Yun Shen was unaware of the tense and subtle atmosphere between the two and politely extended his hand.

"Hello, I'm Chu Yun Shen, Miss Wen's..."

"It's late, the child is sleepy."

Fu Yanci interrupted Chu Yunshen.

He didn't want to hear the word "fiancé" from another man's mouth again, and he couldn't bear to let Fu Bao hear it.

Fu Bao has grown up. Although she doesn't say it, she knows many things in her heart.

Fu Yanci didn't want Fu Bao to be sad anymore.

He carried Fu Bao outside, and Wen Qingruan looked at Fu Bao and raised her hand to say goodbye.

Fu Bao saw Wen Qingruan.

This time, instead of smiling as he said goodbye to his mother, he buried his face in his father's neck and refused to look at his mother again.

Wen Qingruan's heart sank, as if she had been hit hard by something, and she could hardly breathe. That familiar feeling of suffocation and heartache swept over her, causing her to stagger back a few steps.

"Watch out!"

Chu Yun Shen reacted quickly and caught her.

As Fu Yanci got into the car, he glanced out the window and happened to see this scene.

His heart sank, and his face grew even more gloomy.

Wang Rui didn't understand what had happened, assuming it was just too late, so he immediately closed the car door, went around to the driver's seat, and drove towards Jingyuan.

The heating was on full blast in the quiet carriage.

Fu Bao nestled in her father's arms, remaining silent.

He thought that he should stop mentioning his mother in front of his father.

Mom has started a new life and said that Dad is just an acquaintance and doesn't acknowledge him as her son.

He will spend more time with his father from now on.

As long as he doesn't go to see his mother, his father won't be sad.

At the hospital, after Fu Yanci and his son left, Wen Qingruan said goodbye to Chu Yunshen and returned to her residence.

She lay in bed, curling her body into a ball, thinking about the indifference Fu Yanci and Fu Bao had shown her at the hospital.

She clutched her chest, letting the unbearable heartache torment her, over and over again.

She told herself that this was fine.

From the very beginning, she shouldn't have reunited with them or disturbed their lives.

It's good that Fu Bao has become distant from her. They are not destined to be mother and son. Since that's the case, then don't let the child get close to her. Otherwise, Fu Bao will be sad when they separate in the future.

She and they are from different worlds and should have no further contact.

As long as they are well, that's all that matters...

Jingyuan.

Fu Yanci carried the sleeping Fu Bao into the room.

It was already 2 a.m., but the lights in the villa’s lobby were still on.

Wu Huilan sat on the sofa, looking like she was about to interrogate someone, while Liu Ma stood beside her.
