After Divorce, Hidden Marriage Husband Became Addicted to Me
Chapter 81 - 80: Backing Up

Chapter 81: Chapter 80: Backing Up

The checkup was over quickly, and after grabbing the medicine, Tang Xi handed the medicine bag to the old man, "You should have someone from your family come pick you up."

"That grandson of mine is such a disobedient scoundrel. If I let him pick me up, I might be angered to death by him!" He actually wants to divorce Tang Xi and marry a girl from an insignificant family, and now she’s pregnant? It’s ridiculous! Fu Yuanshan felt a headache coming on, couldn’t it be that Su Mengshu gave his grandson some love potion? Fu Tingzhou was now insisting on marrying no one but her.

A black sedan stopped at the door, and a middle-aged man got out, walking quickly to Fu Yuanshan, "Master, are you alright?"

Lao Shanhai looked at Tang Xi, "It was you who saved the master? Thank you."

"Don’t mention it, since your family is here now, I’ll be leaving. Remember to follow the doctor’s orders, take your medicine and have regular checkups," Tang Xi said and then left.

Fu Yuanshan got into the car, saying to Lao Shanhai, "Luckily we met a female doctor; otherwise, I might have been gone today. That girl works at the First Hospital, check it out, and tell little Xu from First Hospital to reward her."

Lao Shanhai nodded, "Yes."

At the same time, he felt a little frightened, "Master, this was too dangerous. Wherever you go in the future, try to have someone with you. What would we do if something happened?"

"I’m getting old, my body isn’t good anymore, let Ah-Zhou come back tonight, and bring his wife."

"This... The Third Young Master doesn’t like her and wants to divorce her, bringing her back now... the Young Master probably won’t want to."

"He has to want to! What kind of place do you think the Fu Family is, pregnant before marriage, he knew he had a wife, whether he likes her or not, marriage is a responsibility, and he got involved with that insignificant girl from the Su Family? Nonsense! Just tell him, if he doesn’t bring Tang Xi back tonight, he shouldn’t come back to the Fu Family either, I, Fu Yuanshan, disown this grandson!!"

The old man said angrily and coughed a few times.

Lao Shanhai quickly said, "Yes, master, don’t get angry, it’s not good for your health."

Tang Xi was accompanying Qin Jianlan in the hospital ward.

Hearing the doctor say that Qin Jianlan was recovering well and would soon reach the operation criteria, she genuinely felt happy from the bottom of her heart.

Qin Jianlan held Tang Xi’s hand, "I’m really scared that I might never wake up from this surgery."

"Mom, don’t say such things. You will be fine."

"Waking up these past few months, it feels like a gift from the heavens..." Qin Jianlan said, "Seeing you and Ah-Zhou, your mother can rest assured even if she closes her eyes."

Tang Xi hugged her, "Mom, you definitely won’t have any problems!"

"Good child, your mom just can’t stop worrying about you." Qin Jianlan genuinely cared for Tang Xi like her own daughter; she knew in her heart that her own son actually never liked Tang Xi, but married her only to fulfill her wishes.

During the time by her side, Qin Jianlan vaguely felt that her son might have fallen for another girl outside.

That’s why she was anxious to get Tang Xi pregnant, to secure her position.

"Xi, rest assured, even if mom doesn’t survive the surgery, I won’t let anyone threaten your position." Qin Jianlan had made up her mind, she glanced at Aunt Rong and asked her to bring the item.

Aunt Rong brought over a jewelry box, from which Qin Jianlan took out a jade bracelet, "Xi, this is for you. I should have given this to you three years ago. Put it on quick, let mom see if it fits."

"Mom... this is too precious..." Tang Xi hesitated to accept it.

"What are you talking about, silly child, mom’s things are yours too." Saying this, Qin Jianlan took her hand and put the bracelet on her wrist; the white, shiny bracelet made her skin look even more fair, fitting perfectly around her wrist.

The door to the ward was pushed open, and Fu Tingzhou came in.

"Mom."

A smile appeared on Qin Jianlan’s face, "Ah-Zhou, you’re here, come and see, doesn’t the bracelet I gave to Xi look nice?"

Hearing Fu Tingzhou had arrived, the man stood behind her. Tang Xi’s spine tensed, and she gently lowered her eyelashes.

The man gently placed a hand on her frail shoulder, "It looks good, very fitting."

"Xixi doesn’t want it yet, look, even Zhou said it looks good."

Tang Xi’s lips curved into a smile as she stood up, unintentionally avoiding the hand on her shoulder. She adjusted Qin Jianlan’s pillow, "Mom, isn’t it your keen eye that’s good?"

"Silly child, have you forgotten what day it is today?"

Tang Xi looked at her somewhat puzzled.

Qin Jianlan took Tang Xi’s hand and held Fu Tingzhou’s hand, placing them together, "Zhou, today is Xixi’s birthday, you didn’t forget in your busyness, did you?"

Tang Xi was startled.

Her fingers involuntarily curled slightly.

Fu Tingzhou’s expression also visibly tightened, but he quickly recovered, "Sorry, I’ve been too busy lately... I’ll take her out for a good stroll tonight."

Tang Xi, "Oh... Zhou celebrated it with me last month..."

That day was Mengshu’s birthday, and Fu Tingzhou attended Mengshu’s birthday party.

Today is her lunar birthday.

She indeed forgot.

Apart from her mom and Shiyue, almost no one celebrated her birthday, and over time, she also forgot it.

Qin Jianlan said, "Back in my hometown, we always celebrate the lunar birthday. Zhou, take good care of Xixi tonight."

Before Tang Xi could say anything, Fu Tingzhou said, "I know, mom, don’t worry. Grandpa wants to see Tang Xi tonight, and I just happen to bring her back."

Go back to the Fu Family?

Tang Xi looked at him.

Qin Jianlan frowned slightly, "Your grandfather asked you to bring Tang Xi back?"

"Yes."

Qin Jianlan was silent for a few seconds before saying, "Tonight, I will go back too."

Tang Xi held Qin Jianlan’s arm, "Mom, you can’t leave the hospital now."

Qin Jianlan patted her hand to reassure her, "I know my own body, I’m just going to have a meal at the Fu family. It’s been a while since I’ve been back, it’s time for a visit. Also, Xixi... I don’t feel comfortable letting you go alone."

Tang Xi was moved.

She hugged Qin Jianlan’s arm, somewhat choked up, "Mom...."

She knew, Qin Jianlan was here to support her.

She had been married to Fu Tingzhou for three years, and Qin Jianlan had been in a coma for those three years. Fu Tingzhou didn’t like her, and the Fu Family also didn’t regard her well!

And Qin Jianlan, she was here to support her.

Fu Tingzhou had a serious expression, but he didn’t oppose Qin Jianlan, understanding his mother’s disposition. After a moment’s thought, he nodded, "Okay, I’ll ask the doctor."

He watched as Qin Jianlan patted Tang Xi’s shoulder, the deep affection between the two evident. This woman Tang Xi really had some abilities, managing to make his mother care so much for her. Ever since his mother woke up, she never mentioned anything about the Fu Family. The grandfather tried to visit several times but was gently dissuaded by his mother.

The deep-seated grudge between mother and grandfather was profound, yet this time she was willing to go to the Fu Family for Tang Xi.
