Chapter 1569
When Fu Shen saw that I was sickly, he sent the baby my way.
Four Seasons was very smart and immediately reached out her little hand and looked at me blearily, “Mommy, hold!”
Faced with such a little angel, who could resist not smiling? I hurriedly carried her to sit on my lap and asked her with a smile, “Four Seasons, every year from now on we will come back to see second grandpa and his family, okay?”
“Yes! Then Four Seasons will have lots and lots of money!” Four Seasons giggled as her two little hands clapped together and her eyes narrowed into a crescent moon.
“Little money-grubber!” I gently pinched Four Seasons’ nose and joked with Fu Shen, “This kid doesn’t know who to follow!”
Muzi opened a bar, bought a house, and was a real powerhouse to the outside world, not bothered about managing money, but it was clear to me that she wasn’t into the smell of copper, she had just reluctantly learnt the skill of controlling money in order to survive better.
As for Cheng Junyu, it was even more impossible. The Cheng family once held the entire kingdom of the daily necessities industry, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they regarded money like dirt, and the Four Seasons bore no resemblance to him at all, except for his features.
Fu Shen laughed lowly twice, inclined his head to look at us, reached out and rubbed his hand on the head of the four seasons, his eyes gentle enough to pinch water, but did not answer the question.
I looked at him and for a moment flashed back to the image of Fu Shen holding our biological child and doting on it like a baby, and the desire for the IVF thing my aunt had mentioned became a little stronger in my heart.
We returned to the capital that night, and had dinner with Ivana and Mo Zhi Zhan to make up for the New Year’s Eve dinner.
When we got home, Four Seasons was asleep on Fu Shen’s shoulder, so we put her to bed before we both went to our rooms to wash up and rest.
I was a little tired from the day’s running, but while I waited for Fu Shen to take a shower, I turned on the computer and searched for information about IVF.
“What are you looking at?”
Looking so intently that I didn’t even hear Fu Shen approaching, I was startled by his low voice coming from above my head.
I quickly turned off the computer interface and pretended as if nothing had happened, “Nothing, are you done washing?”
I wasn’t sure if he had seen it or not, I just remembered that a report I had just turned to mentioned that the success rate of in vitro fertilisation for women at their best could be as high as sixty percent, that was the standard for adult healthy women, and I, obviously, didn’t meet that probability.
“Hmm.” Fu Shen did not delve deeper and put down a glass of warm water and pills in a bottle cap on the table.
Fu Qingyin was very concerned about us having another child, and had taken me to a western doctor on the second day of the year, saying that I had a weak qi and would take a long time to recuperate, but of course there was a shortcut, taking pills, every day, so as to barely ensure that I had a chance of conceiving again before I turned thirty, and these were the pills the foreign doctor had prescribed, and had been taking them for a week straight.
I gently swallowed the pills one by one and finished the water before Fu Shen carried me across the bed.
……
The first day of the year is a public holiday until the eighth day of the year, less than the time of work, Fu Shen and I took the four seasons around to pay our respects.
The first thing we did was to go to the Shen’s house, where the little Four Seasons received a big red envelope from Shen Changlin and was so happy that he danced around, making the room laugh.
Sang Yun changed her outfit, after putting her long hair up, her whole person looked a lot more stable, standing beside Shen Yu, the two of them had frequent private eye interactions, I always felt that these two people were not simply getting married for the right conditions, as they said.
Chapter 1560
When I collided with Shen Yu’s eyes, I looked a little nosy and secretly received a blank stare from him.
The four seasons in Jiangcheng was spoiled by second uncle and the others, simply can not sit still, opened the red envelope asked Shen Changlin to accompany her to go out and play snowball fight, a lifetime of rude and bold big man, froze to take her no way, half push half go to the courtyard open space to play in the snow.
We made a circle around the sofa, and looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, we could see Shen Changlin looking like an old child pleasing the four seasons, laughing with glee.
After a while, the living room quieted down and Shen Yu suddenly popped up without a word.
“Have you received the news, Mu Shen has come out.”
Hearing this news, my good mood instantly dissipated for a large part, feeling unexpected and strange.
I remembered very clearly that when Fu Shen’s lawyer analyzed the case, he mentioned that Mu Shen was suspected of intentional injury, possession of firearms, and injury to animals protected at the national level, and that several crimes were punishable by at least fifteen years of imprisonment, so how could he have gotten away with it?
The idea of what happened at the villa suddenly sent a chill down my spine, and my breathing involuntarily increased.
Fu Shen reached over and patted the back of my hand to soothe me. I looked up and read the hint of calm in his eyes, then I took a deep breath and tried to restrain myself to stay calm, barely squeezing out a smile to reassure him.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public. The police found out that the entire Mu family had absconded with their money and run away to a foreign country.”
“So, Mu Shen won’t come back in the future?”
I acted too nervous, and just as I finished speaking, I felt Fu Shen’s grip on my hand increase in strength again. I hurriedly straightened my expression, trying to look more relaxed, and explained, “I’m just a little curious.
“You’re still too naive,” Shen Yu said with a playful expression as he raised his hand, “in the end, the law is also a rule, and since it’s a rule, it’s a game for the winner. It has its own set of survival rules for criminals to pick and choose from, and the dead ends where the light of the law can’t find them are where they start their second life.”
It seems that I can understand the reasoning behind his analysis. There are very few things in this world that money and power cannot do, and if Mu Shen could think of a way to clear his name before I revealed the organ trade, he might not have thought that he would one day become a prisoner, so he prepared in advance.
When people’s hearts are turned towards evil, the ugliness and horror is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, a point I feel Avray in Cheng Junyu.
However, understanding reality is one thing, the uneasiness and fear at the bottom of my heart still grows like a vine and infects every cell in my body.
I couldn’t help but frown and look at him as Fu Shen suddenly took my hand in his entirety, the coarse feeling of friction and warmth reaching my palm.
“I’m here.” Fu Shen lifted his lips.
