Chapter 583: Chapter 583: No Conflict Between the Two

Su Mu suddenly turned and looked at Fu Shinian who, unbeknownst to her, had been standing behind them, and had possibly heard much of their conversation. She smiled faintly:

"You’re back?"

Fu Shinian responded with a smile and walked over to stand beside Su Mu, then took her slightly cold hand in his, slightly furrowing his brows.

Su Mu wasn’t accustomed to wearing a coat while driving, usually only putting it on after getting out of the car, but today, due to the sudden turn of events, she had stepped out without even putting on her coat. Although it was only autumn now, wearing just a shirt was still too thin. Fu Shinian couldn’t be bothered to go back to the car to get hers, so he simply took off his own coat and draped it over Su Mu:

"We’ll deal with this when we get back."

Su Mu glanced at him, quite helplessly, but didn’t say anything.

Fu Shinian looked at Madam Ji and smiled faintly:

"Aunt Ji, given how close Nanfeng and I are, I naturally assumed you knew about the relationship between Su Mu and me, including my feelings for her. But it was only after hearing what you just said that I realized you didn’t understand, which also proves that your relationship with Ji Nanfeng doesn’t seem very good either. If I’m not wrong, it has been quite a while since he last went back to see you, hasn’t it?"

Madam Ji’s face turned a bit embarrassed upon hearing this and she chuckled lightly:

"He’s busy."

"Yes, he’s busy. Busy taking care of his malnourished wife and unborn child. But what have you, as his mother, done for him? Intentionally setting a trap to send him on a business trip, then taking advantage of his absence in Shen City to harm his wife and child—this seems like something only you could do."

Madam Ji opened her mouth to try to defend herself, but before she could speak, Fu Shinian interrupted her:

"You don’t need to explain anything to me. I don’t want to, and I won’t get involved in the Ji Family’s affairs. However, out of respect for you as Ji Nanfeng’s mother, let me give you a friendly warning: your actions towards Jiang Bei have deeply hurt Ji Nanfeng’s heart, and he is very likely planning to sever ties with the Ji Family soon."

"What did you say?"

Fu Shinian looked at the furious Madam Ji, smiled faintly, but said nothing more. He immediately escorted Su Mu back to the car. After hearing what Fu Shinian said, Madam Ji had no mind left to verbally spar and had no more concern for Jiang Bei and the child in her womb. She turned and got into a car to leave immediately.

Fu Shinian drove Su Mu’s car back, while his own car was driven back by the chauffeur. When they arrived in front of the main building, they saw the old lady and Jiang Bei walking in the courtyard. Upon seeing Fu Shinian and Su Mu return together, the old lady smiled faintly and patted Jiang Bei’s hand:

"You young people take your time talking. I’m going in to check if the meal is ready."

Jiang Bei smiled and watched the old lady leave. Su Mu got out of the car and went straight up to Jiang Bei:

"How are you doing today?"

"Of course, I’m fine," Jiang Bei smiled. "With your all-around protection, I’m more than fine."

Su Mu didn’t believe her words, but it didn’t matter. She slowly walked shoulder to shoulder with her toward the main building. Noticing that Jiang Bei’s mood seemed somewhat more subdued than before, Su Mu asked:

"Do you know?"

"I had to know." Jiang Bei chuckled. "If she came looking for me, the servants would definitely report it to me."

"Next time, I won’t let you know."

"I don’t know what you told her, but based on what I know about you, I guess she probably won’t come looking for me anytime soon, right?" Jiang Bei stopped, glanced at Fu Shinian who was following them at a short distance, and smiled lightly:

"Actually, you don’t have to offend her on my behalf. After all, the Fu family and the Ji family have such a good relationship. If something happens because of me, I would feel bad."

Fu Shinian chuckled lightly at that comment:

"It’s not as serious as you say. Although the Fu family and Ji family are indeed long-time acquaintances, the closest relationship was during my grandfather’s time. Since then, there hasn’t been much contact, it’s just a name now. Don’t worry about it. Nanfeng and his mother will have to make a decision soon, and it won’t affect my relationship with him either."

Remembering the words Fu Shinian had said outside just now, Su Mu looked toward him:

"What you said just now, is it true?"

"Of course, it’s true." Fu Shinian looked towards Jiang Bei. "Ji Nanfeng is going to cut ties with his family. He won’t let you suffer any longer."

"But I’ve already decided to get a divorce."

Fu Shinian smiled faintly: "I don’t think there’s any conflict between the two decisions."

Although Jiang Bei had decided to get a divorce, the child was the most important thing right now. Even though the amniocentesis didn’t go through, it still had an impact on Jiang Bei, so Su Mu didn’t really approve of her discussing divorce with Nanfeng at the moment. After all, it was a very entangled matter and currently, it was still more important to focus on the child and recuperation.

Fortunately, Jiang Bei wasn’t in a hurry either. After all, for her, a decision once made was final, no matter when she would go through with the procedure.

After Jiang Bei’s condition stabilized, Su Mu heard some good news, about Zhou Yaxian.

Zhou Yaxian had improved a lot, her body no longer so emaciated, and her complexion had gotten a lot better too. The reason for her improvement was because Su Mu had people send nutrition porridge she made herself to her every day. Perhaps it was because of this that Zhou Yaxian felt there was hope again between Su Mu and Wen Han, so she gradually got better.

In reality, Su Mu hadn’t been there for a long time. The nutrition porridge was actually made by Auntie Li at home and then sent to the hospital. They always told Zhou Yaxian it was made by Su Mu, though Zhou Yaxian did question why Su Mu never appeared. Each time, Wen Han used work as an excuse. Sometimes he would even say, "She did come, but you were sleeping."

Zhou Yaxian was deceived by this lie for almost a month, and the doctors even said she could be discharged. However, on the day before her discharge, while Zhou Yaxian was standing in front of the window admiring the autumn scenery, she inadvertently saw Auntie Li downstairs handing a meal box to Wen Han.

When Wen Han entered the sickroom, it was a complete mess. There was no place to step, he got a scare and hurriedly looked for Zhou Yaxian within the room but found that she was nowhere in sight. He set down the meal box and went to find a nurse. The nurse said she hadn’t seen her either.

Zhou Yaxian, after a month of regular life and about to be discharged, was no longer in a state where she needed constant care, so it was somewhat understandable that the nurse hadn’t paid much attention. However, Wen Han inexplicably felt uneasy.

Because of Zhou Yaxian’s status, upon realizing she was missing, the nurse immediately reviewed the surveillance footage. The footage showed that she had left the sickroom and went to the emergency staircase fifteen minutes ago, then went up to the rooftop.
