Chapter 397: Chapter 398: Gu Yixuan’s Affection 7

"All right, let them stay. But I’m not used to being waited on, let Grandmother take care of me, and the other two can handle everything else," Mo Ran said.

"OK, whatever you say," Gu Yixuan agreed immediately.

The two girls also showed happy smiles, and their fondness for Mo Ran increased by several folds instantly.

One was named Li Lan, and the other was Huang Xiaoli, both under the supervision of Grandmother. Grandmother instructed them to focus on cleaning and tending to the garden.

As for cooking, she insisted on doing it herself, because Gu Yixuan was very particular about Mo Ran’s diet.

In the first couple of days after coming back, Gu Yixuan was extremely careful with Mo Ran’s health and didn’t dare to share a bed with her at night, worried that he might accidentally press against her.

Every night, he would sleep on the sofa in the bedroom, his sleep light and restless.

Whenever Mo Ran turned over, he would wake up, walk over to the side of the bed to see if she was feeling unwell, and only after making sure she was fine would he go back to lie down and continue sleeping.

His worry surpassed Mo Ran’s imagination.

Usually, he would go to the company to handle business during the day. Since the near miscarriage, he had brought all his work home to deal with.

Mo Ran had told him several times to go to work, but he would just smile and not agree.

After a week of convalescing at home, Mo Ran felt her body had almost fully recovered and suggested that he go back to work.

"Let’s wait a little longer, until you are completely well, then I’ll go back to the company," Gu Yixuan responded to her.

Mo Ran felt very guilty inside, "No, you should go back to work now. I know there are many things that require your presence. With you constantly absent from the company, I guess a lot of things must be in disarray."

Gu Yixuan was pleased with her consideration, but he just couldn’t ease his worry about her health. The thought of losing the baby at any moment filled his heart with panic.

"Ranran, I promise you. Another week, and I’ll go back to work at the office. As for other matters, you don’t need to worry. The company has already been set on the right track, and it doesn’t matter even if I don’t go," he said cheerfully while holding her from behind.

"But, if you stay at home taking care of me all the time, people will say that I..."

"They’ll say you’re like an ancient woman, bewitching her lord? Ha, I’m not an emperor, and you’re not a consort in the deep palace, we are different from them. Even if others find out, they would just say we are in love and very affectionate towards each other," he said.
