Gu Teng pulled Xiao Jing out of the door, wanting to give the two children some space. Xiao Jing didn’t have a chance to refuse even if he wanted to. He could only watch as Rong Xuan sat on the bed and talked to his precious daughter.
After the bedrooms were closed, he said, “Gu Teng, I think Rong Xuan is up to no good.”
“What are you thinking about?” Gu Teng was very puzzled. “The two of them are still children.”
What’s wrong with being a child? Haven’t you heard of the term childhood sweetheart?
Xiao Jing wished he could nip all possibilities in the bud. His precious daughter could only be protected by him. He was worried about everyone.
Gu Teng felt that her husband was thinking too much. This made Xiao Jing feel that no one understood him.
Rong Xuan placed the cake by the bed and went to call Yunbao. “Sister Yunbao, I brought your favorite cake. Get up and have a bite.”
Yunbao opened her eyes in a daze and sat up. Then, she shook her head.
“Brother Rong Xuan, Yunbao doesn’t want to eat cake.”
Rong Xuan picked up the cake and said, “This is a new cake made by our chef. Doesn’t it look beautiful?”
When Yunbao heard him say that, she looked at the cakeo This cake was transparent blue, and there were white and fat clouds floating inside. She couldn’t find any cream from top to bottom, but it looked as beautiful as the blue sky and white clouds.
Yunbao asked curiously, “Where’s the cream?
Rong Xuan pointed at the clouds inside and said, “This is cream. This is the jelly cake made by our chef.”
This piqued Yunbao’s interest. She picked up a small spoon and scooped a mouthful into her mouth. Then, her eyes widened involuntarily as she said,
“Brother Rong Xuan, this cake is delicious.”
“If it’s delicious, eat it all.” Rong Xuan smiled when he saw that Yunbao liked it.
He didn’t mention that this cake was his idea at all because he wanted Yunbao to eat more. There were still more than ten failed products in the Rong family’s kitchen.
Yunbao was in good spirits after eating the cake. She had heard from her father that Rong Xuan had risked his life to save her. She said to him, “Brother
Rong Xuan, thank you for saving me.”
Rong Xuan did not think that this was a big deal. He touched Yunbao’s head and said, “Don’t thank me. Yunbao saved me too.”
Just as the two of them were chatting harmoniously, Cheng Xi’s scream came from outside. “Lily!”
Yunbao quickly got off the bed and ran out. Rong Xuan grabbed her arm and said, “Slow down or you might trip.”
Yunbao said anxiously, “Something must have happened to Sister Lily.”
The two of them ran downstairs and saw Lily struggling on the ground in pain. Her eyes were closed and she was whimpering. Her body was emitting wisps of black smoke.
Cheng Xi knelt beside her and wanted to pick her up, but as long as she reached out, she would be burned by the black gas. For a moment, no one could approach Lily.
Seeing Yunbao coming downstairs, Cheng Xi pounced on her and said,
“Yunbao, look at what’s wrong with Lily. She was fine just now.”
Yunbao was not good at this either. She turned to look at Xiao Jing and said, “Dad, is Master still at our house?
“Master Song Yun went out to buy herbs previously. She should be back soon.” As soon as Xiao Jing finished speaking, he saw Song Yun walk in.
When Cheng Xi saw Song Yun return, she quickly ran over and said, “Master, please save my Lily.”
Song Yun looked up and saw Lily lying on the ground. She helped Cheng Xi up and walked over. She used her energy to probe Lily’s body and her expression became worse.
After the energy ran through Lily’s body, she retracted it and asked solemnly,
“Do you know how your daughter was born?”
Cheng Xi was a little stunned and subconsciously replied, “At that time, I rejected Devon’s pursuit, so he drugged me and let me sleep. I didn’t know what kind of medicine it was, so I didn’t notice what had happened at all. Two months later, I realized that I was pregnant and found out that he had raped me.”
Cheng Xi couldn’t help but cry at the mention of the past. This was the most painful pain for her. No matter when she talked about it, it would hurt again.
Song Yun patted her back to comfort her. Then, she sighed and said, “I’m afraid Lily is not a real child. Her body is destined to have problems.”
“What do you mean?” Cheng Xi was a little flustered. “Could there be a problem with the potion back then?”
“That potion is not only to make you numb.” Song Yun pointed at Lily. “It’s also to make sure that you get pregnant. It’s to force the body to create a child..”
