Ye Fanxing looked at the medicine in the bottle, more than half of it remaining, "I'm fine, there's really no need for all this fuss. A good night's sleep will do, really."
Fu Jingyu gazed at her, his eyes filled with determination, "I prefer obedient girls."
That comment made Ye Fanxing refrain from disputing with him further.
The room was very quiet. She studied Fu Jingyu. She had only known him as a man who spent his days in a wheelchair, she'd never really looked at him before. Now, she realized he was very handsome.
It's like God was an exquisite craftsman and he was a meticulously sculpted masterpiece. The most salient point was... he exuded an indescribable sense of security.
Ye Fanxing laid on the bed while Fu Jingyu was constantly by her side, looking after her.
She seemed never to have experienced such care. Her parents were always busy. Even when she fell ill, she would have to arrange her own medical care—they simply didn't have the time to look after her, being in Beijing and all.
After all, she was just their daughter; she was different from Ye Zichen.
Chiang Sen walked in from outside just as Fu Jingyu was taking care of Ye Fanxing.
It was the first time he had ever seen Mr. Fu taking care of someone else.
Even when he was with Su Linhuan, he'd never been like this.
Back then, Fu Jingyu was always busy. Even though he had a fiancée, the time he could spend with her was sparse, barely non-existent.
Yet he was a man of principled nature. Since he had married Ye Fanxing, he was determined to treat her as his wife.
No one could explain why Ye Fanxing had come to be the first to enjoy such care from Mr. Fu.
Seeing Chiang Sen reminded Ye Fanxing of something Fu Jingyu had just said—that Chiang Sen had gone to look for her…
Ye Fanxing quickly sat up, "Mr. Chiang, you went to my house?"
Chiang Sen said, "We didn't hear anything from you in days, so yeah, I dropped by."
He'd meant to scold her initially, but discovering she was ill, he decided to bring her back instead.
Ye Fanxing asked, "Did my mom... see you?"
Without her mother's permission, he probably wouldn't have been able to unlock the door, let alone let her out.
Chiang Sen nodded, "I saw her."
"Did she give you a hard time?" Ye Fanxing was genuinely worried, considering her mother's temper.
Chiang Sen hesitated for a moment before speaking, "She was very furious. Even threatened to call the police."
With the help of Ye Zichen, he forcefully took Ye Fanxing away.
Otherwise, knowing Mrs. Ye's character, she probably wished to have Ye Fanxing detained for a few more days.
She'd nurtured her own daughter after all, how would she possibly let Ye Fanxing elope with another man?
Feeling guilty, Ye Fanxing said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
Chiang Sen asked, "That woman... she is your birth mother, right?"
This question took Ye Fanxing by surprise. She soon broke into a bitter smile, "That is something I wish to know too."
Her mother was intentionally distancing herself these past couple of days, forcing her to compromise, to renounce her education, and instead agree to get married.
Seeing the wretched look on Ye Fanxing's face, Chiang Sen concluded, "You don't need to be too anxious; focus on regaining your health—that's the most important thing. Mr. Fu will handle the rest."
Fu Jingyu was capable of doing more than she could have ever imagined.
When Chiang Sen said this, it wasn't just to console Ye Fanxing but also to remind her that only Mr. Fu could provide the support she needed.
Chiang Sen hoped that Ye Fanxing would face reality, faithfully remain by Mr. Fu's side, and avoid causing him heartache.
Yet Ye Fanxing was too preoccupied with her own situation. She didn't understand his implication at all.
