Chapter 103: Chapter 103 Slowly Planning
Even though her mind was swirling with emotions, Shen Yanhe’s face revealed nothing as she quietly finished the meal.
After the meal, Jiang Yun didn’t rush for Fu Yanhe and Shen Yanhe to leave and instead had them stay in the living room to watch TV for a while.
Fu Yu, having repeatedly faced embarrassment during the meal, didn’t want to stay any longer under Fu Yanhe’s sarcastic remarks and headed back to her room early.
The TV was currently airing a music variety show, and the mentor featured was Su Qi.
At that moment, the show was broadcasting a segment where the mentor performed his own songs.
Standing on the stage, Su Qi was dressed in a white suit, his black short hair smoothly brushed back, with a strand mischievously falling across his face, which added a touch of devilish charm and rebelliousness to his handsome yet aloof expression.
Shen Yanhe was momentarily startled upon seeing him, and after two seconds, she recognized him, feeling a bit of relief in her heart.
The young boy who once sang in bars had, in corners she hadn’t seen, grown into a superstar, beloved by many.
While listening to Su Qi’s songs, Shen Yanhe silently observed Jiang Yun’s expression.
Jiang Yun looked natural, softly tapping her thigh to the beat: "This young man sings quite well."
"Oh yes," Jiang Yun suddenly turned to look at Shen Yanhe and Fu Yanhe. Shen Yanhe instinctively cast her eyes down, avoiding direct eye contact.
"Now that you two are married, when are you planning to have a child?"
Confronted with the question of having children for the first time, Shen Yanhe’s ears reddened slightly, and she instinctively glanced at Fu Yanhe.
Fu Yanhe’s expression remained cool and detached. Noticing her look, he calmly took her hand and gently patted it, reassuring her, "No rush."
"How can you not be in a hurry?" Jiang Yun chided them from across the room, "I’m still young enough to move around, I could help you take care of your child!"
"If you want to take care of children, let Fu Yu find a man to marry and have her own," Fu Yanhe responded coolly, without a hint of politeness.
"I wish," Jiang Yun said irritably, "but right now, her heart is set on Qi Yunqian. She doesn’t care for any other man."
"I don’t even know what’s so great about that kid. They are already about to get married, and she still clings to him."
"In any case, you two must have a child next year."
Fu Yanhe snorted, amusement absent from his eyes, and said indifferently, "Yanyan and I just got married. We haven’t had enough of our time as a couple yet, so we don’t need to bring in a child to act as a third wheel."
He added, "Besides, I don’t even like children."
Sitting beside him, Shen Yanhe was slightly taken aback and narrowed her eyes, remaining silent.
Jiang Yun frowned, "Even if you don’t like children, you still need to have one. What about the company?"
Fu Yanhe didn’t reply, merely furrowing his brow and lifting his hand to cover his chest, subtly signaling Shen Yanhe with his eyes.
Shen Yanhe caught his glance and quickly stepped forward to ask softly, "Yanhe, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Yun’s gaze flickered subtly, and she sighed, raising her hand dismissively, "Alright, alright, I won’t pressure you anymore. It’s up to you whenever you decide to have children."
"It’s quite late now. Everyone should go back to their rooms to rest. If you’re feeling unwell, call the doctor to come and check before going to sleep."
Upon hearing this, Fu Yanhe and Shen Yanhe wished each other good night and quickly returned to their room.
In the empty living room, only Jiang Yun remained, with Su Qi’s powerful song still reverberating.
Jiang Yun breathed out heavily, leaned back on the couch, and covered her eyes with one hand. After a long time, she finally stood up, walked out to the balcony, and dialed an unknown number.
Once the person on the other end of the phone picked up, a few signs of anxiety and worry finally appeared on Jiang Yun’s calm face. She pushed back her hair from her forehead and asked in a lowered voice, "The medicine you had me give him, are you sure it won’t harm his body?"
A raspy, deep voice came through the phone, tinged with static, the person having disguised their voice.
He said, "No, it will just make him obediently under our control."
Pacing on the balcony like a caged animal, Jiang Yun continually brushed her bangs back, "But today I saw him holding his chest! You promised me it wouldn’t harm his body!"
The person on the other end of the phone became somewhat displeased, and their voice grew cold, "Are you questioning me?"
"I’m not..."
"Better not." The person snorted coldly, "Rest assured, we will not deceive you. If he really has any issue, just knock him out and send him over, and we’ll cure him."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun’s uneasy and somewhat guilty heart finally calmed down a bit. After briefly updating the person about Fu Yanhe’s recent condition, she hung up the phone.
Before she hung up, the person on the other side spoke with a somewhat sinister tone, "By the way, find a way to get his wife pregnant, suppress his wife, make his wife become a mediocre woman."
"Absolutely, do not let his wife become an outstanding person."
Jiang Yun’s pupils dilated, a question of why still stuck in her throat went unasked as the phone emitted a "beep beep beep" of being hung up.
Jiang Yun tightly clenched the phone in her hand, her beautiful face turning pale and rapidly shifting expressions.
She could understand targeting Fu Yanhe, but why target Shen Yanhe as well?
Could it be that Shen Yanhe had provoked them?
She couldn’t figure it out.
But...
Jiang Yun’s eyes shifted colors, and she stood on the balcony for a long time, ultimately clutching her phone with a guilty grip.
She had no choice but to obey the person’s words.
She closed her eyes, forcibly suppressing the guilt inside her.
Sorry, she was also compelled.
The Fu Family could not be without the young master Fu, if she didn’t listen to them, then she might...
Sorry, she would, afterwards, doubly treat Shen Yanhe and Fu Yanhe well.

Meanwhile, although Shen Yanhe harbored suspicions about Jiang Yun, she did not rush to share these speculations with Fu Yanhe.
If it was indeed her, it was still fine, but if it wasn’t, then she might have falsely accused someone.
This matter needed to be approached gradually.
She sent him back to his room as usual and then began the routine medical treatment.
Boiling the Detoxification Medicine, applying the scar removal cream to Fu Yanhe, combining it with massaging techniques to enable full absorption of the cream, and using medicinal soaks to treat his leg injury.
After a busy round of treatments, Shen Yanhe checked Fu Yanhe’s pulse: "The poison in your body is nearly eliminated; in another week, it will be completely gone, and then we can start treating your leg."
The poison in his body was a minor issue; the real challenge was his leg.
Fu Yanhe, his face covered in green scar cream, had a hint of brightness in his eyes as he looked at her tenderly, "Mm, you’ve worked hard."
All these days, Shen Yanhe’s dedication had not gone unnoticed by him, and the ice in his heart melted little by little due to her warmth.
Even though she had many secrets, Fu Yanhe didn’t mind.
After all, he was no stranger to having secrets of his own.
This did not stop him from being moved by her.
Shen Yanhe, catching the softness in his eyes, smiled softly, "It’s not hard; what we have is mutual."
He had helped Shen Huai find bone marrow and had people protect Shen Huai.
He treated her well, so she was generous in returning her kindness to him.
