Chapter 804: Will Not Tolerate Anyone Bullying My Wife
An You didn’t come to eat breakfast, so the old madame had a servant bring some food to his study.
When Mingzhu heard that An You wasn’t coming, her gaze flickered and she pressed her lips together before slowly drinking the porridge bit by bit.
An Yu and Li Nianlei were sitting opposite from Mingzhu and Mingzhu kept staring at them throughout the entire course of the dinner. Meanwhile, Ning Shu’s gaze was on Mingzhu.
No matter how she looked at it, there was something wrong with this Mingzhu.
When Mingzhu sensed that someone was looking at her, she turned around and met Ning Shu’s gaze. She immediately lowered her head to focus on drinking the porridge and stopped looking around.
After breakfast, the entire group started walking outside. As Mingzhu was stepping out the door, she suddenly tripped and fell straight to the ground.
“Ah…” Mingzhu covered her stomach and started crying out in pain. “Why did you push me!?” Mingzhu pointed at Li Nianlei with one hand.
Li Nianlei who was standing next to Mingzhu froze in shock, her face pale. “I didn’t push you, I didn’t.”
“Please save my child! Please, save my child!” cried Mingzhu while sobbing. Ning Shu crouched down to help Mingzhu up, but Mingzhu pushed her hand away and covered her stomach like Ning Shu wanted to harm her child.
“Mother, I really didn’t push Aunt.” Li Nianlei’s voice also contained a faint sobbing tone. She really didn’t do it. She didn’t know how Aunt suddenly ended up falling.
“Bring Mingzhu back to her courtyard and call a doctor. Call a doctor!” shouted the old madame as she leaned against her crutch.
Mingzhu’s face was pale as she shouted, “Please save my child, please save my child!”
But when Ning Shu reached out to help Mingzhu up, Mingzhu’s face would fill with fear. It was like she felt like everyone here wanted to hurt her.
Ning Shu narrowed her eyes, then said to An Yu who was consoling Li Nianlei, “Carry Mingzhu back to her courtyard.”
Right after Ning Shu said that, she saw a longing light flashed through Mingzhu’s eyes. A strange feeling immediately surged up in Ning Shu’s heart.
“This doesn’t really seem appropriate.” An Yu shook his head. He and Mingzhu weren’t of the same generation since she was his father’s mistress. It wasn’t really good for him to carry her.
When Mingzhu heard An Yu’s refusal, her tears overflowed.
Ning Shu saw that Mingzhu wasn’t bleeding so she was likely fine. Hence Ning Shu just had Zhu Er go call An You.
When An You came and saw that the person he loved was lying on the ground while these people were just watching from the side, rage immediately flooded his heart.
“Mingzhu’s pregnant, how can you guys treat her this way?” shouted An You angrily as he hastily carried Mingzhu towards her courtyard.
Ning Shu snorted. The entire group followed them into the courtyard. Mingzhu was now lying on the bed, her face pale, while An You held her hand tightly and said, “Our child will be fine. It’ll be fine.”
When the doctor came to take a look, he said that there was nothing wrong, she just suffered a fright and should rest well.
Mingzhu’s gaze landed on Li Nianlei’s face and she asked, “Why did you push me?”
“I didn’t, I really didn’t push you.” Li Nianlei’s face was deathly pale, but she said calmly, “I was on your left. If I pushed you, you should’ve fallen towards the right, but you had fallen towards me.”
“Because you pulled me,” said Mingzhu, hurt.
Ning Shu said coldly, “First you said that you were pushed, now you say that you were pulled? What really happened?”
“Are you interrogating Mingzhu? Mingzhu almost lost her child, but you guys are still interrogating her like this? Do you guys have any humanity?” said An You in a pained tone. His yellowish face was scrunched up with heartache.
Ning Shu: Pff…
Keep calm. No matter what, she couldn’t get angry.
An Yu pulled his wife behind him protectively and confronted An You. “There’s no way Nianlei would do something like this. Isn’t it more likely that your mistress was the one that tripped on her own?”
“Audacious! Is this how you speak to your father!?” An You seemed to feel that his dignity was being challenged and he glowered at An Yu sternly. In this moment, he really resembled an old lion doing its best to maintain its dignity.
An You suddenly found that no one in this room seemed to be standing on his side. Mingzhu who was on the bed only knew to weep.
He was completely alone. Loneliness quietly filled An You’s heart.
An Yu said coldly, “What I’m saying is the truth. No one saw what happened back then clearly and I will not tolerate anyone bullying my wife.”
When Mingzhu saw An Yu like this and saw that An You wasn’t speaking, she started weeping even harder without a word.
The old madame rapped her crutch against the ground, then said, “Alright, stop arguing. Mingzhu should focus on recovering and that’ll be the end of this matter.”
