Li Luowan sat on the sofa and took a breath, "It's really not necessary. I'll take a rest and all the pain will be gone."
Mrs. Chen went to find ice cubes to apply the bruise on her forehead. Just then, the landline phone next to her rang.
Li Luowan sat there without responding. Mrs. Chen put down the ice cube in her hand and reached out to take it -
“Hello, are you at Miss Li's house?”
“Yes, you are?”
Su Ruihan asked Aunt Lin to call Li Luowan, but the servant answered the call.
Aunt Lin was muttering in her heart, why didn't the young master fight it himself? If he didn't worry about Miss Li, why didn't he just go and see her?
They want to make phone calls in her name, what an awkward young couple.
“Oh, I'm looking for Miss Li. Could you please put her on the phone?”
"Miss is not feeling well and just fell asleep." Mrs. Chen has a knack for telling lies with her eyes open.
"Ah...feeling unwell? Have you caught a cold? Is it serious?" Aunt Lin was concerned out of instinct.
"It's okay. Pregnancy will inevitably lead to some physical weakness. When we were having breakfast just now, my lady accidentally fell down, but luckily she was fine. She just refused to go to the hospital for a check-up. I was afraid that she would find me verbose and kick me out, so I I didn't dare to say anything, so I had to apply ice cubes to her. She said it didn't hurt, but I know that she is most afraid of pain..."
Sister Chen's scheming was even better than acting, and she deliberately spoke as if nothing had happened.
She knew that the caller at this time was more or less from the Su family, because usually there was no one at home and the phone rarely rang.
The affairs of the company and the scandals with the lady will harass the wife, but not her.
She was just conveying the truth. If she described Li Luowan as too delicate and pitiful, it would make people laugh.
Sister-in-law Chen revealed Li Luowan's situation to Aunt Lin while speaking as if nothing was wrong. Su Ruihan only felt pity after hearing this.
Her position in the Li family is stable, and this kind of scheming is not something that a few young people can play, especially on emotional matters.
Li Luowan had suffered many losses at her hands back then. She had been tricked so many times that she couldn't even count...
Su Ruihan frowned. Did she fall again?
Are you feeling unwell, or is pregnancy too difficult?
But the nanny didn't seem worried at all. Did she not like her very much?
She said that few servants have liked her since she was a child, and no one really regards her as a second lady, so the one who stays may not take good care of her. Will he take advantage of her being alone and helpless to abuse her?
Su Ruihan watched Aunt Lin hang up the phone silently, feeling mixed emotions in her heart.
Li Luowan's eyelashes trembled suddenly, staring at the ceiling in a daze. Su Ruihan's indifferent look drifted past her eyes uncontrollably.
She listened to everything that Mrs. Chen said on the phone just now, word for word. She was quiet, neither stopping nor acknowledging. She just looked at a certain place quietly, in a daze.
Mrs. Chen looked at her and walked over to apply ice cubes on her forehead, pretending that nothing happened.
"You actually don't have to do this for me." Li Luowan said weakly.
"Miss, I know you are feeling bitter. What I have done is only trivial. The key is to see what you think." Mrs. Chen sighed and continued her movements.
Is it bitter? Maybe a little.
It is because the favor he gave himself was too sweet at the beginning that it produced the results it has today.
“I won't do anything stupid!”
Li Luowan tried her best to smile and persuaded herself not to cry. Crying would not solve the problem.
She felt as if she had fallen asleep again, but she didn't. She touched her belly and couldn't help complaining: "Baby, you are torturing mommy because you want to vent your bad temper on your father, right?"
