The young man replied: "The doctor said that the young mistress just fell down the stone steps not long ago and her fetal essence has been damaged... If she continues to refuse to take a good rest, I'm afraid she will be in big trouble."
Xia Han pursed her lips for a moment and walked back to the hospital.
Ms. Lu was sitting on the bedside at this time. She had just finished drinking the anti-fetal medicine, her eyes were a little distracted, and the maid took a handkerchief to wipe the medicine stains from the corners of her mouth.
"Young mistress, the second master is back."
A maid came in and reported.
Lu's face, which was lost in thought, suddenly changed, her body tensed up a bit, and she tightly grasped the lake blue brocade quilt with both hands.
Xia Han, still wearing official uniform, walked in.
Lu tried her best to look at him calmly.
The man walking towards her was tall and tall, with a face as beautiful as a crown jewel. He had the gentle aura of a scholar, and considering that he entered the Hanlin Academy at a young age... there was no doubt that he had a lot to do with his origin, appearance, talent, knowledge and skills.
In the future, everyone will be a good husband.
Marrying him was once the thing she was most proud of.
But now...
The husband in front of me seems to have remained unchanged, but he seems to be a completely different person...
Make her feel strange and scared.
"Second Master is back." A weak smile appeared at the corner of Lu's mouth, which was pale.
"But it still hurts a lot?"
Xia Han sat down by the bed, held one of her hands, and asked with concern.
His hand was so cold that Lu felt as if she was tightly wrapped around a cold poisonous snake, which even made her shiver slightly.
"I just drank the medicine and I feel much better..." Ms. Lu resisted the urge to pull her hand away.
"That's good."
Xia Han looked at her and asked, "Speaking of which, why do you suddenly want to go back to the Lu family today?"
Ms. Lu forced a smile and said: "I miss my mother a little, so I went back to take a look..."
"Really?" There was an inexplicable emotion floating in Xia Han's eyes, and his tone was still gentle and patient: "But Yao'er, didn't I just tell you yesterday that you should stay at home and recuperate? When did you change?
Are you so ignorant?"
Lu's body froze slightly, and she looked into those slightly cold eyes, and said in a slow tone: "Yes... I was careless."
Xia Han's eyes looked into her eyes full of anxiety for a moment.
After a moment, he suddenly asked curiously: "Yao'er, you seem to be afraid of me now? Why is this?"
"How could it be...!"
Mrs. Lu quickly forced out a smile, and then said sadly: "I... I'm just afraid that something will happen to the baby in my belly..."
Normally, what she would gain from speaking like this would be her husband's comfort.
Lu also subconsciously thinks so now.
The next moment, the man's eyes seemed to be a little colder. He stared at her and said slowly: "Yao'er, I don't want to hear such words from you again... This child can't do anything wrong. You
Understand?"
His father's attitude towards him seems to have not changed in recent days, but there must be dissatisfaction in his heart.
And the father attaches great importance to Lu's unborn child, who will most likely be the eldest grandson of their Xia family.
"..." Mrs. Lu almost stopped breathing and nodded blankly.
Xia Han took one last look at her.
He warned: "You have a good rest, I will go to the study to handle some official business."
Hearing the word "study", Lu's eyes suddenly tightened.
Even though she thought she put the things back intact, her husband...could he have noticed something from her performance?!
Even though it was normal for Xia Han to go to the study every day, the various shocks and shocks she received today had made Lu feel like a frightened bird, unable to relax at all.
Xia Han stepped out of the room and explained to the steward who was guarding outside the hall: "Young mistress needs to rest now, but she has been very active recently. Please give me a little reminder - don't indulge yourself if it is not necessary."
She went out and about freely."
The stewardess hurriedly bowed her head in response.
The expression on the maid's face changed again and again.
Is the second master... going to restrain the feet of their young mistress?
Seeing Xia Han enter the study, the maid quickly returned to the inner room and told her young mistress what he had just told the housekeeper.
Lu's pupils trembled slightly.
Her husband actually wants to put her under house arrest...!
Does this mean she doesn't trust her?
Or...are you disgusted with her?
However, compared to these, there was something that scared her even more at this moment.
"Open the window, I want to get some air..." she urged the maid with difficulty in breathing.
The maid saw this and quickly opened the window.
Mrs. Lu looked through the window lattice into the study room where the lamp was lit.
The study door is closed.
Under the light, a tall man's figure could be vaguely seen standing in front of the bookshelf.
Lu slowed down her breathing, and stared at the movement of the shadow with eyes filled with fear and unblinking.
The shadow stood in front of the bookshelf for what seemed like a long time, so long that she thought he must have discovered something...
Will he treat himself the same way he treats Xu Su?
Huge fear overwhelmed Lu, and she felt as if everything in front of her would collapse in the next moment, and the black image in the study was a huge hand that could drag her into boundless hell at any time.
She didn't even know how long it had been, maybe half an hour, maybe half an hour...
The figure finally left the bookshelf and sat down behind the desk.
For some reason, it was clearly just a shadow, but she clearly noticed that her husband was also looking at her from afar!
"Close...close the window!"
Lu ordered in a trembling voice while lying down in a panic.
The maid closed the window as instructed, walked to the bed, covered her with the quilt, and asked worriedly: "Young mistress, are you okay?"
She knew that she shouldn't have told the young mistress about the puppet in such detail... The young mistress said she wasn't afraid, but she was still frightened.
Although she was also afraid, she quickly put it behind her.
The young lady's appearance was obviously really frightening.
Where did the young mistress get that puppet? Why did she tell her to hide it even from the second master?
The maid who didn't know the truth was puzzled, but she didn't dare to mention the matter anymore.
Seeing that Ms. Lu didn't respond, the maid could only comfort her softly: "Young mistress, the doctor told me to get more rest, so please have a good sleep... I will guard you here."
Lu slowly let go of her clenched teeth and forced herself to close her eyes.
It's time for her to take a nap...
She must keep the child in her belly.
And everything that has happened recently is so abnormal that it is beyond imagination...
Maybe this is all just a nightmare?
When she woke up, everything was still as it was before. Her husband was still considerate and gentle, caring for her in every possible way, and she was still the second young mistress of the Xia family who was envied by countless people and had everything she wanted...
