Empress Of Business World - Chapter 318
Ch-318
Chen Mu Sheng felt like his body was not listening to him. He still doesn’t know how his body got into the car and drove to the shopping mall. He didn’t notice that Chen Hao Ling entered the car. He didn’t care if his bodyguards followed him or not. He didn’t care if he created a commotion on the roads.
His body trembled in anxiety.
If someone asks him, were you scared?
He may not admit but he was terrified! Truly!
His whole body was shuddering in fear. Every cell in his body screamed of fear, anxiety, and worry over his wife and his unborn child.
He somehow reached the shopping mall in a daze followed by Chen Hao Ling. A bodyguard received and led them towards the restroom. There he saw Yan Shu crouching on the cold tails as she hugged her knees while staring into the nothingness.
Mu Sheng’s heart thumped against his ribcage making a loud noise. He reached near her and crouched to her level as he engulfed their bodies into a hug.
“Take me out!” she whispered. Her voice was barely visible to him but he understood her. He carried her into the bridal style to the car after giving an order to Lingli to clear the bills. After settling her in the passenger seat, he was about to fix the seat belt. But he was suddenly hugged into a bone-crushing hug by Yan Shu. Her body trembled as she hugged him tighter.
“I was scared!” she whispered in raspy breathing.
“No worries! Everything will be fine! From now, every second I will be with you!” he said.
“I was scared that I might die and may not be able to live with you. I was scared that I might be without having a complete family to myself! The thing which afraid me most was, I might die without taking a last glance at you! I did everything to protect myself! But I feel I am a failure!” She sobbed in his embrace as she buried her face in his neck.
Mu Sheng’s heart sliced into thousand pieces seeing her cry. She never cried in front of him except for the time when she was under him. Apart from that time, she never cried. He felt miserable, he wanted to say many things. But nothing came out of his mouth. All he could do was accompany her and give her a shoulder to lean. He hugged her till she calmed down. Yan Shu cried a lot. Maybe due to the pregnancy triggers, she cried a lot. She was turning so s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e!
Mu Sheng noticed Yan Shu sleeping in his embrace as she held him tight. He wanted to move but his legs turned numb due to standing in an uncomfortable position to hug her. He felt like he was about to fall but he moved his leg very slightly. He couldn’t feel his legs. But after a few seconds, he felt better. He stretched his right leg and did the same as before. After a while, he slowly laid her down on the seat as he broke their hug. Then he got out of the car and looked at Chen Hao Ling.
“Brother! Can You drive the car? My legs were numb!” Mu Sheng asked.
Chen Hao Ling would have teased if it was normal time, but he held his urge and nodded.
“Carry her to the back seat! Let her sleep in your l.a.p,” he said. Mu Sheng nodded at his brother’s suggestion.
After that, he carried his wife to the back seat and let her sleep in his l.a.p.
“You should keep things like a pillow and blanket. Just for emergencies like this!” Chen Hao Ling said all of a sudden.
Mu Sheng nodded again. He just doesn’t want to speak with anyone. In Fact he prepared them but this was not their car. This was different from the car usually they drive. So, this car doesn’t have them. He wanted to say he was caring but he was afraid that he would wake her up. He just let her sleep like a baby. Yan Shu quickly fell into sleep. She didn’t wake up even after they returned home. Mu Sheng carried her to the bedroom in bridal style. He removed her shoes and removed the coat and other clothes. He just laid her n.a.k.e.d and went inside the bathroom. He filled a tub full of hot water and got a white bath towel. He wiped her whole body clean. Due to the scare she got, her body was drenched in sweat. It wouldn’t be that comfortable for her to sleep with sweat. He wiped every inch of her skin cleanly and wore a nightgown. After that, he left went into the bathroom and freshened up.
He saw his brother was getting out from the guest room and walking towards the dining hall. Mu Sheng was also hungry. He and his brother ate food in silence.
“I suspect it’s that my sc.u.mmy father!” Chen Hao Ling said as he lowered his head.
“Not him! Our so-called step-sister did that!” Mu Sheng said.
“How!? And so fast?!” Chen Hao Ling asked in surprise.
“Brother! Don’t fake too much! I know you were worried that he would hurt us because of you and you were feeling guilty! I know! Can you stop blaming yourself for everything, brother? Can you be my brother, who used to be with me, and stay confident! I beg you! This thing was a big one! I know! But remember you and your biological father are two different people! And you were the son of Chen Hao Ren and Hua Ling! Dammit! You grew up with them. Why weren’t you so sure of this thing!? It has been twenty-nine f.u.c.k.i.n.g years!? You were still stuck at the point that you weren’t the son of Chen Hao Ren and Hua Ling!? Can you get out of that!? If my parents want you to go away, They wouldn’t let you inherit the Chen’s! Brother! Sigh…….” Mu Sheng was already agitated but when he heard his brother’s words he was more agitated.
He knew he was feeling uncertain about his position in the family. But it doesn’t mean just because his father created a lot of trouble, he doesn’t have to take responsibility and die in guilt, right? He just wanted to make him comfortable but no matter what but he couldn’t. Mu Sheng left after finishing his food. He informed the kitchen to make food ready for Yan Shu to eat whenever she wakes up. After he directly went to the study and did some work. After he was done, he went to the bedroom and saw her sleeping peacefully. He decided to let her work from home. Since she wanted to call Song Yun back, he let her handle the things till the things were resolved.
Mu Sheng felt that he let that cheating family stay for a long time. So they were growing fangs and nails to claw them. He tipped a servant to collect the hair samples of his ‘so-called step sister’ and steal her phone! He would get them by tonight and have to wait for four days before cleaning them from Chen’s house.
Meanwhile…..
Chen Hao Ren sighed as he slumped back onto his chair. Even he doesn’t want to remember his biological father. But he couldn’t help it. From the time when he heard that he was not their son when he was ten, he couldn’t help but feel odd from the family. When he heard he was not their son, every day he lived in fear that one day he may be driven out of the house. So, he tried to be calm and do everything to please them, just so he would have a place in their house. Chen Hao Ren when his mother scolded him saying that he was not her son, his heart shook in fear. Whenever he heard those words his heart trembled with fear. Even though those were just words of a sick person and didn’t have a stable mind, he couldn’t help but take it into his words. After all, he was a ten years old kid, how could he not feel sad?
Every day, whenever he was scolded, he never complained. He just cried silently in his room. But his whole world has changed and his hardsh.i.p.s are gone when he got a letter from his brother. He cried so badly when he read that letter, even though they never met once his brother was concerned about him. He specified about him and asked her to take care of him. That time he swore to take care of him and protect him.
After his mother turned better, she regretted it a lot but that didn’t wipe the hurt in his heart. He was afraid that she would change her mind, but till she was dead, she didn’t change her mind. Even others didn’t ask him to leave the house. Instead, they asked him to return when he left.
Chen Hao Ren felt he indeed was making things complicated. If he hadn’t done that, maybe he would have experienced happiness in his life in the past ten years. A lone tear cascaded from his left eye. He has many things he wanted to say but he felt he was alone to share all of them. He didn’t notice that it turned night when he was filled with his thoughts.
“CHEN! MU! SHENG!” an angry voice sounded from the door shaking the hearts of all people in the mansion.
