Chapter 959 - 978: The War Between An Nan and Xi Xilan (Part 1)
Thinking about it, it’s really hard to escape.
Alas!
This life is really unmanageable. After sitting on the bed in turmoil for a long time, Han Xiayang reluctantly got up and left the fragrant bed, preparing to go to the company for another hard day of work.
At the same time at the Lin Family, An Nan had just hung up the phone. Without thinking much about the natural emotions of the person on the other side, her attention was now on the sick man in the room.
She’s pregnant now, so she can’t go in to be by his side, and she doesn’t even know how that man is doing. The more An Nan thought about it, the more anxious she became. Even though she knew that colds and fevers aren’t serious issues, she just couldn’t put her mind at ease. Over the years, such complex feelings had only been directed towards her son Jiayou. Now there would be one more person, one more person who would always weigh heavily on her mind.
Lan Xinru hurriedly rushed over from the hospital, and even before entering the door, her voice was already reaching inside: "What happened again?"
An Nan quickly stepped forward: "He was perfectly fine this morning and then suddenly had a fever, and it still hasn’t gone down."
Hearing An Nan’s anxious tone, Lan Xinru’s displeasure quickly faded as she entered the room, and she comforted her: "Nannan, don’t worry. I’ll go check on him right now. That guy is very healthy; nothing’s going to happen to him."
"Alright, go quickly then!"
Lan Xinru swiftly entered the room and began checking on the patient, Young Master Lin. Ultimately, her conclusion matched what she had told An Ran: "It’s nothing serious, just needs an IV drip and some medicine, and make sure to keep warm these next few days."
Before leaving, Lan Xinru reminded An Nan: "You’re a pregnant woman now, you can’t catch a cold. If there’s nothing urgent, try not to go into the room."
"I understand. Thank you for coming over specially."
"Why so formal with me? I’ve got stuff to handle at the hospital, so I’ll head back now."
"Alright, drive safely."
Lin Mubai’s illness lasted several days, leaving most of the pre-holiday, busy work in Han Xiangyang’s hands, making him almost live at the company. Fortunately, the attitude of his girlfriend Shen Mengqi improved a lot recently, which might be a blessing in disguise.
Over at Nanqi Group, Xi Xilan’s actions never seem to cease. An Nan knew but didn’t ask much, only intervening when things went too far.
Just like that, near the end of the year, the company still encountered issues.
Lin Mubai had recovered quite a bit today, but these days of having a cold took a toll on his body.
Every time she thought of this, she couldn’t help but scold him: "Why would you stand on the balcony in the wind for no reason?"
"I didn’t mean to, wife, just let it go. I’m all better now, aren’t I?"
"Hmph, do you even know how many people worry about you when you’re sick?"
"Alright, alright, wife, I’ll take care of my health next time."
"Mmm."
Afterwards, the two strolled leisurely in the garden of the Lin Family Mansion, enjoying the rare calm and peace. But such rare days didn’t last long, as someone’s arrival shattered the tranquility and fueled a formal battle between An Nan and Xi Xilan.
"Rocky, when did you come back from the United States?" An Nan looked at the person standing not far away with surprise.
