He heard the commotion behind him, slowly turned around, and their eyes met. Rui Hui looked like she had just done something wrong, so nervous that she even forgot to breathe, holding her breath as she looked at him.

"Where’s the medicine?"

"What medicine?" Rui Hui blinked, a bit confused.

"The stomach medicine you just bought." Diwu Zexuan glanced around the room, his gaze landing on her empty hands, and frowned.

He took a step forward and touched her forehead.

"If you’re not feeling well, tell me. I’ll get you the medicine; there’s no need to take outside prescriptions."

"..."

Rui Hui shrank back slightly, wanting to avoid his touch, and touched her stomach, biting her lip.

Words reached her lips but she hesitated.

Diwu Zexuan never wanted a baby. They’ve been together for so long, and he has always been careful with contraception.

The precautions were meticulous, so if he found out she was pregnant, would he be unhappy or even refuse to keep the baby?

Rui Hui felt a tightness in her chest and an indescribable discomfort.

She was already prepared to give up, so why did she have a baby at this time...

"What are you thinking about? Stomach still uncomfortable? Let me check." Diwu Zexuan noticed her continued silence and her expression became cautious. He picked her up and placed her on the bed, reaching out to examine her.

"I’m much better, just wondering, what did my dad say to you?" Rui Hui snapped back, instinctively hiding her hands under the blanket, lifting her head and changing the subject.

"..."

Mentioning Kwei Adolf, Diwu Zexuan’s expression shifted slightly. He lowered his gaze and stared at Rui Hui for a few seconds before speaking.

"Your father is worried we might get divorced."

"..."

"He also said, even if you insist on divorcing, I shouldn’t agree. The Adolf family will stand by my side and won’t let you be capricious."

"You liar! My dad would never side with you!" Rui Hui puffed her cheeks, sat up excitedly, and glared fiercely at Diwu Zexuan.

Her father has always seen her as his treasure, and if he knew she was wronged, he would want nothing more than to kill Diwu Zexuan, so there’s no way he would stop her from getting a divorce.

Diwu Zexuan must be spouting nonsense; she didn’t believe a word!

"We’re very close to your dad’s study; if you don’t believe me, you can go ask to clarify." Diwu Zexuan sat next to her, his large hand holding her small one, and he couldn’t help but smile at her angry little face.

"Want to bite me? Do it!"

"Hiss—"

As Diwu Zexuan’s words fell, Rui Hui really threw herself into his arms and bit down hard on his chest.

With the strength of an angry little wolf cub, she seemed to want to tear a piece of meat off him.

Diwu Zexuan frowned, took a sharp breath, yet still couldn’t bear to push her away. Instead, he affectionately rubbed her small head.

"Don’t hurt your teeth; you won’t be able to eat meat in the future."

"..."

Her chest full of anger was suddenly extinguished. Rui Hui punched him softly on the chest and shrank her petite body under the covers.

Holding her stomach with both hands, she glanced at Diwu Zexuan, who only made her angrier.

She decided not to tell him about the baby!

"If you’re tired, take a nap. We’ll go back this afternoon."

"Back where?" Rui Hui peeked her small head out from under the covers, her big eyes rolling as she looked at him.

"Back to the lab building. I still have a few cases to work on; leaving suddenly will cause problems." Diwu Zexuan replied indifferently.

A trace of unease flashed across his enchanting face.

But immersed in her own thoughts, Rui Hui didn’t notice.

What he cared about wasn’t really the cases.
