Chapter 403
“Miss An, you’ve returned. Are you hungry? Dinner will be ready soon,” Aunt Zhou said with a smile.
An Ruo asked in surprise, “Aunt Zhou, how come you are here?”
The man behind her explained, “From today onwards, all your meals and daily care will be managed by Aunt Zhou, and you cannot refuse.”
It wasn’t just about care, it was also about surveillance.
“I have already hired someone. Aunt Zhang just went home temporarily because she had something to deal with, but she will return here,” An Ruo indirectly refused his ’kindness’.
Tang Yuchen said with a smile, “I will find Aunt Zhang a new job elsewhere, and I believe she will be much more satisfied with it.”
“You… I only like the care provided by Aunt Zhang, please ask Aunt Zhou to leave,” she coldly refused.
“An Ruo, I hope you won’t contradict me on this matter. After all, it doesn’t make a difference to you who takes care of you. You might as well accept it.”
Yes, he was not likely to have only Aunt Zhou surveil her, but she didn’t want to live under surveillance all the time.
“Tang Yuchen, you might as well install cameras in my house,” An Ruo said angrily as she turned and walked briskly to the bedroom, slamming the door fiercely.
The man gently knocked on the door, “Remember to come out and eat later, don’t starve my child.”
Child, child!
Without this child, he probably wouldn’t even care to glance at her.
An Ruo lay on the bed, covering her head with the blanket, her heart aching intermittently.
Tang Yuchen, you have deeply hurt me, isn’t it enough?
Why, why do you continue to ’rub salt into my wounds’…
Do you really need me to be miserable for a lifetime before you can be happy?
An Ruo couldn’t help but shed tears of sorrow, wishing she could go back to being the old An Ruo, who cared about nothing — at least then she wouldn’t get hurt.
Not knowing how long she had cried, she heard Aunt Zhou knocking on the door, “Miss An, the young master has already left. Come out and eat something; don’t starve yourself.”
She didn’t respond, and Aunt Zhou added, “I know you’re not happy with me taking care of you, rest assured, I won’t bother you or make you feel annoyed.”
The door opened, and An Ruo, with red eyes, forced a smile, “Aunt Zhou, it’s not that I don’t like you. I’m sorry, I just…”
“I understand. It’s alright, no more words needed. Come and eat,” Aunt Zhou said warmly, interrupting her. An Ruo nodded, no matter what, she still had to eat and continue on with life.
Let Tang Yuchen send people to surveil her if he wants.
The child must be born healthy, and as for what comes later, that will be dealt with in the future.

It was late when Tang Yuchen returned home, and Lan Keren was waiting for him.
Seeing him return, she walked up and affectionately took his arm, smiling gently and asking, “What were you busy with today? Why are you back so late?”
“Nothing much, just dealt with some things,” the man replied, wrapping his arm around her, also smiling.
“Have you eaten yet? I have cooked some food for you.”
“Did you cook yourself?” Tang Yuchen asked, surprised. It had been a long time since he had eaten a meal she prepared.
It was like back in the old days during their training, when she had cooked for him once.
“Of course, come, let’s see if my cooking skills have deteriorated,” she suggested.
She led him to sit down, then went to the kitchen to bring out the warm dishes. The man watched her serve three dishes and a soup, smelled the aroma, and began to praise her cooking skills.
“We haven’t even eaten yet. You can praise me after we eat,” the woman said with a smile, helplessly.
