Sheng Boyan looked at Nan Wan in Mu Jin Huan’s arms, and the stone hanging high over his head seemed to finally fall to the ground.He walked up to them, his clear and refined features as gentle as always, "It’s a boy, I just asked."
Upon hearing Sheng Boyan’s voice, Nan Wan was somewhat surprised. In recent days, only her third brother and Shen Zhimei had come to see her without being driven away by Mr. Mu. The others couldn’t even make it to this floor.
It was said that Liu An was blocking the stairs downstairs, stopping everyone he recognized, including people from the Mu Family.
She stared blankly at Sheng Boyan for a while before snapping out of it, curving her lips into a smile, "No wonder there are signs of being so mischievous."
It seemed like everyone knew before Mr. Mu, wouldn’t he be mad?
"That’ll take a few more years," Sheng Boyan also smiled, his elegant eyes not revealing much emotion, "Are you feeling better?"
If he hadn’t come here to attend the exchange meeting, he wouldn’t have known that she almost...
His hand, hidden in the pocket of his suit pants, tightened but relaxed again after meeting the calm gaze of Mu Jin Huan, slowly unclenching his fist.
"Yes, much better," Nan Wan answered softly, seemingly sensing something. She tilted her head up to look at the man’s firm jaw, "It’s a bit cold, can you carry me back?"
Mu Jin Huan lowered his head to meet her gaze, then looked at Sheng Boyan with calm, unruffled black eyes and said in a steady voice, "I’ll take Wanwan back to the ward first."
In the brief moment their eyes met, Sheng Boyan had already understood the meaning in Mu Jin Huan’s eyes, nodding silently.
Stepping aside, making way, his gaze shifted to Nan Wan’s face, his features revealing a gentle smile, "Take a good rest."
Ensuring the mother and child were safe was enough, the rest wasn’t his concern.
"Okay, and senior brother you..." Nan Wan only managed to say these few words before the man carried her back to the ward and tucked her into the blankets.
Though it was ’tucking’, the movements were gentle.
Oh, she forgot, Mr. Mu didn’t like her calling Sheng Boyan ’senior brother’, but after calling him that for so many years, how could she change it so quickly?
Mu Jin Huan tucked her in, his sharply defined features as calm as ever, showing no sign of displeasure, "Get some sleep."
With the fresh scent of lilies, the smell of disinfectant in the air was somewhat masked, and the late autumn sunlight, not too glaring, fell warmly into the room.
Nan Wan nestled in the blankets, her black hair spread across the white pillow, her rosy, oval face appearing even more petite.
Blinking, "I just woke up."
The two men weren’t very familiar, what were they going to say behind her back?
Mu Jin Huan paused for a moment, then quickly returned to normal, bending slightly to naturally place a kiss on the woman’s lips.
His long fingers gently moved to brush aside the strands of hair on her neck, his voice low and warm, "They came all the way to see you, just two sentences and you send them away, is that appropriate?"
It would be fine if he hadn’t brought it up, but mentioning it made it all the more suspicious.
Previously, just picking up Sheng Boyan’s call, he would gaze at her with a half-smiling look, almost stepping over to cut the call himself, giving her the cold shoulder for half a day each time, when had he ever considered such a problem...
Nan Wan was just about to mock him when a sudden chill ran through her mind.
Nervously gripping the man’s fingers, she tentatively asked, "Is there really something wrong with my mom?"
These days, whenever she brought it up, he would say there was no issue and then subtly change the subject.
Before the man could speak, she added, "Mu Jin Huan, don’t lie to me."
Mu Jin Huan’s expression remained calm, his deep black eyes without a ripple, lightly pinching her cheek, his gentle voice tinged with a hint of helplessness and affection, "If something really happened, would Nan Ze keep it from you?"
That was true...
Even if she wasn’t feeling very well now, if it concerned her mom’s life, her third brother wouldn’t hide it from her.
"Then, what was that look you gave to senior brother?"
"You wouldn’t be interested in topics between men."
Nan Wan clutched the man’s hand to prevent him from leaving, her delicate brows furrowing, half threatening, half coquettish, "Will you tell me or not?"
Mu Jin Huan maintained his composure, unhurriedly stating, "I went to remind him not to use the senior brother-sister excuse to secretly covet my Mrs. Mu."
Nan Wan, "..."

The hospital corridor.
On one side was warm sunlight, and the corner on the left was in the shade, with the lights off during the day, the light was quite dim.
