C40 40 Shen Xiaoling
Who called her?
Tang Yun walked to the window and saw Shen Yi running out of the villa in a hurry. She was running in a staggered manner but she had no intention of slowing down.
Tang Yun frowned. It was rare to see Shen Yi in such a flustered state. This manner made Tang Yun's heart clench suddenly.
He reached out his hand and pressed down on the inside line.
"Young Master?"
"Ask Shen Yi where she's going and drive her there."
After saying that, he hung up.
Soon, he saw Uncle Zhao drive out of the mansion, and in less than a minute, he drove back.
Tang Yun's eyelids twitched. He turned around and walked downstairs. Coincidentally, the butler parked the car in the garage and walked in.
"Young Master."
"Why are you back?"
"When I went out, Dr. Shen had already left."
Tang Yun stayed silent for a few seconds, then turned around and went back upstairs.
That damned girl's phone call had made her so nervous and frightened that he had never seen her before. Now that he thought about it, his heart ached.
He sat on the sofa with a deep frown on his face. In his heart, he was worried about Shen Yi and couldn't let go of her.
When Shen Yi came out of the villa, there was a taxi that was about to leave the residential area.
In the taxi, she tightly clenched her fists as her body trembled, as if the sky was about to collapse.
That year, when her mother had passed away, she had been scared to the point of despair. She didn't know if she could experience it again.
She sat in the taxi without a word, her face worryingly ugly.
The driver looked into the rearview mirror and saw her extremely ugly expression. He asked worriedly, "Miss, are you alright?"
Shen Yi did not answer. Her mind was completely blank, she could not think of anything. In fact, she realized that she could not even speak.
Suddenly, her cell phone rang again, breaking the stifling silence in the car.
Shen Yi's body shook violently. She looked at the number that was jumping on her cell phone's screen and answered with all her courage. "Hello?"
Her voice also trembled violently, and only after the person on the other end finished speaking did she gently nod, "Oh, okay … "It's good that you're fine."
Her voice was choked with sobs, hoarse to the point that it trembled violently as she moved.
Silence returned to the car. The driver looked at her pale face for a long time before he heard her whimpering.
Tears that had been held in for a long time gushed out of her eyes. She cried for a very long time, and the more she cried, the fiercer she became. It was as if she wanted to vent all the fear in her heart.
The driver didn't disturb her and thought that she had fallen in love, so he just let her finish venting her anger.
He drove to the place where she told him to go in silence. Halfway there, Shen Yi finally stopped crying and looked out of the window in a daze.
She did not know how many more times she could endure such fear, how many more times she could bear such heartbreaking parting.
The car stopped at its destination.
"Miss, we're here."
"Hmm?"
Shen Yi snapped out of her daze and realized that she had already reached the place she wanted to go.
After paying the driver, she looked around before entering the house.
After knocking twice, a middle-aged woman opened the door. When she saw her, an apologetic look appeared on her face. "I'm sorry, Miss. I didn't take good care of Little Nian."
Shen Yi looked exhausted, but she wasn't in the mood to scold him. She simply glanced around the room and asked, "How is Little Nian now?"
"I feel much better after taking the pill. I just lied down and fell asleep."
"Yes, I'll go in and see her."
Shen Yi pushed the door and entered the room. A little girl no older than three years old was quietly lying on a delicate pink bed with her eyes closed.
Her eyelashes were very long. When she closed her eyes, they curved upwards to a perfect angle, but her face was sickly pale. Because of her stunted appearance, she was much smaller than her peers, making her look very heartbreaking.
Tears welled up in Shen Yi's eyes as she looked at it.
After accompanying the child for a while, Little Nian came out of the room with her usual invincible appearance. She said to the middle-aged woman, "Sister Zhang, don't leave Little Nian alone next time."
Although Shen Yi didn't explicitly blame her, Sister Zhang blamed herself in her heart. She immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I understand. Little Nian said she wanted to eat porridge. I wanted to boil some porridge for her, but I didn't expect her to faint after staying in the kitchen for just a short while …"
"It's okay. Next time, don't let her do strenuous exercise. Little Nian's disease, she can't do strenuous exercise."
"Alright, I'll remember."
Shen Yi didn't leave. Instead, she propped up her tired forehead and sat down at the edge of the table.
Sister Zhang felt some sympathy for her, but also some sympathy for her. The young miss was only in her twenties, but she was carrying a seriously ill child with her. She was always on tenterhooks …
"Miss, don't blame me for being too talkative. Little Nian's illness is too dangerous. You've been taking care of her for more than two years, and this matter isn't your fault alone. It's better to let Little Nian's father know that someone will take care of her than you alone."
Shen Yi was stunned for a moment. Looking at Sister Zhang's pained expression, she sighed inwardly.
The child's father.
She didn't know who it was, so where could she find him?
That night four years ago, that strange man …
Forget it, I won't think about it anymore.
Shen Yi shook her head. Little Nian belonged to her alone. She didn't want anyone to know about her existence. She still had a lot of things to do. Perhaps, there would be more dangers in the future. She had to ensure Little Nian's safety.
As for Little Nian's father …
Perhaps, since that person was already married and had children, why would she need to get involved and take on the infamy of a mistress?
She hated Little San all her life, so she definitely wouldn't let herself become that kind of person.
Shen Yi stayed there all the way until evening. Little Nian slept all afternoon without waking up.
Shen Yi was scared witless several times, but fortunately, nothing was out of the ordinary.
After a while, there was a small movement in the room. Shen Yi quickly got up and went inside. The little guy was rubbing his sleepy eyes and sitting on the bed.
Although her face was very pale, it couldn't hide her innate beauty. Her beauty was so beautiful that it made one's heart ache.
"Mommy!"
Upon seeing Shen Yi's appearance, the little fellow's face immediately brimmed with a joyful expression.
Normally, she would only come here on weekends. Although the little guy was sensible and never complained, in his heart, he naturally wanted his mother to stay by his side.
She was still young, only two years old and a few months old. Her impression of her father was still very vague, so when she grew up …
