Chapter 700: 702, back again (first update)

Now that Chu Jin, the legitimate young lady, has returned, the butler naturally can no longer call Luo Yu ’Miss.’

Speaking of which, Luo Yu really has the nerve, to actually threaten these servants into calling her ’Miss.’

Hearing this, Chu Jin remained silent, with deep thoughts in her eyes.

Her intuition told her that Luo Yu was definitely up to no good.

Suddenly, she recalled the scene when she last saw Zhao Yan at the clothing store.

At the time, she was clearly standing opposite Zhao Yan.

Yet Zhao Yan, as if she had never known her, called Luo Yu ’Jin’ right in front of her.

Moreover, Zhao Yan’s mental state did not seem to be very good at that time.

What exactly had happened to Zhao Yan during this past year?

Why had she become like that?

Chu Jin clenched her brows tightly, her red lips pursed.

Mo Zhixuan glanced at the butler and spoke coldly, "From now on, never mention this person, as if you’ve never seen her! Do you hear me?" His voice was full of authority, shaking the butler to his core.

The butler nearly knelt down in fear.

The butler wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a trembling voice, "Alright, son-in-law, I understand." The butler was a clever person; he immediately grasped the meaning behind Mo Zhixuan’s words.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived at Zhao Yan’s room.

Several people were standing in the room, including the servants taking care of Zhao Yan, a doctor, and Chu Xiu with a worried expression.

The moment the door was pushed open, Chu Xiu thought he was hallucinating.

He stood frozen in place, rubbing his eyes, but when he opened them again, the scene in front of him remained unchanged.

Sister.

His sister had come back.

Chu Xiu’s eyes instantly turned red, biting his lip so hard that blood soon filled his mouth. The sharp pain and taste of blood told him this was not a dream; his sister had really returned!

Chu Xiu was completely dumbfounded.

Looking at Chu Jin, he didn’t know how to react.

That feeling was like a blind person who suddenly regained his sight, feeling as excited to see again!

It took a while for Chu Xiu to recover from his excitement.

"Sis!" Chu Xiu rushed to Chu Jin, excitedly picked her up, and spun her around in circles.

"Sis, you’ve finally come back!"

In just one year, Chu Xiu had grown into a strapping young man.

Easily, he lifted Chu Jin into his arms.

Chu Xiu was really too happy!

This joy was beyond words.

Chu Xiu held Chu Jin and refused to let go for a long time.

How dare he hold his woman!

Standing aside, Mo Zhixuan clenched his fists; if it weren’t for the fact that they were siblings, he’d have rushed over and swollen Chu Xiu’s face by now! No! Not just his face! His hands! His legs!

However, before Mo Zhixuan could do anything to Chu Xiu, he himself received a heavy punch to his left cheek!

"I’ll kill you, Mo Zhixuan! Kill you, you unfaithful scoundrel! How dare you betray my sister and let Luo Yu carry your child!? How can you do this to my sister?"

Chu Xiu had wanted to beat up Mo Zhixuan for a long time!

He was really furious!

It never crossed his mind that Mo Zhixuan would get together with Luo Yu.

Every time he thought of Luo Yu with her arrogant, pregnant belly, he felt extremely angry and also felt that Chu Jin deserved better! In his eyes, Chu Jin was the best person in the world, the best sister, and he couldn’t tolerate anyone betraying her.

Whoever dared to bully his sister would get a fierce beating from him.

He wanted everyone to know that Chu Xiu’s sister was not to be messed with.

Even if the person was Mo Zhixuan, he wouldn’t hesitate to fight!

Once upon a time.

Chu Xiu also thought he had made a mistake, because he trusted Mo Zhixuan; he believed his brother-in-law wasn’t that kind of person! But when he went to the Mo family to question them, Madam Mo actually confirmed that the child in Luo Yu’s belly belonged to them.

If Madam Mo herself confirmed it, then there was no doubt about it!

That’s why Chu Xiu was so angry.

After Chu Xiu had spoken, Mo Zhixuan took another punch to his right cheek, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

In fact, Mo Zhixuan could have easily dodged, but he didn’t. He took Chu Xiu’s punches squarely, without even attempting to defend himself.

"Xiu! What are you doing?" Chu Jin stood in front of Mo Zhixuan, grabbing Chu Xiu’s fist as it came down again.

"Sis! Don’t protect this jerk! During the time you weren’t here, he was fooling around with another woman! He deserves to be beaten, move aside, I won’t rest until I kill him today! How dare he bully my sister! Bastard, does he not want to live anymore?"

Hearing these words, Chu Jin felt warm and touched inside. After a year, Chu Xiu had become a man who could stand strong on his own.

The feeling of having family members looking out for her was really good.

However, it was still necessary to clarify things, Chu Jin looked at him and said calmly, "Xiu, you’ve misunderstood Mo Zhixuan. That child in Luo Yu’s belly isn’t his. He’s been good, he hasn’t betrayed me."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu’s anger subsided slightly, "Sis, are you serious?"

Chu Xiu knew Chu Jin wasn’t a foolish person.

Since Chu Jin said so, then there must be some misunderstanding.

"Really," Chu Jin nodded, then said, "If he ever dares to do something to wrong me, not to mention you, I’d be the first to chop him up."

While uttering that last sentence, a fierce cold light passed through Chu Jin’s eyes.

Chu Xiu withdrew his hand and frowned, a glint in his eyes, then said, "Wait, if he hasn’t done anything wrong to you, why didn’t he dodge when I hit him just now? He must have a guilty conscience!"

A normal person, if they had done nothing wrong, would have exploded in rage with these two punches coming down, but Mo Zhixuan didn’t even dodge!

Chu Xiu was a person of delicate thoughts, and the more he thought about it, the stranger it seemed.

Perhaps, it was Chu Jin protecting Mo Zhixuan.

Didn’t the book say?

A woman in love has zero intelligence.

"Mo Zhixuan, look into my eyes and tell me, did you betray my sister?"

Although Chu Xiu was not as tall as Mo Zhixuan, his aura was absolutely formidable.

Mo Zhixuan slightly lowered his gaze to look at Chu Xiu and began to speak slowly.

"Xiu, you’re right, I am guilty towards you, guilty towards Jin, but I can assure you of one thing, I absolutely did nothing that would wrong Jin, nor did I betray her. A year ago, it was my lack of ability to protect her that led to her suffering so much. I hope those two punches just now can help you vent a little."

As he said this, Mo Zhixuan paused and then continued.

"Today, I, Mo Zhixuan, promise here that from now on, Chu Jin’s life is mine! I’ll devote my life, to guard her, and her alone!"

Every word resonated with conviction, bursting with a powerful presence all around.

This was the promise given by Mo Zhixuan, no flowery words, just a simple sentence that left people stunned for a long time.

He was not a man to make promises lightly, but once he made one, it was unchanging as the ancient times.

’Chu Jin is my life.’

’To devote a lifetime, to guard a single person.’

These two sentences lingered in Chu Jin’s ears, her heartbeat erratic because of these few words.

If it weren’t for the inappropriate circumstances, Chu Jin would certainly have hugged him tightly.

Because of those two punches, blood was trickling from the corners of Mo Zhixuan’s mouth, but it did not make him look disheveled. On the contrary, it added a bit more sex appeal to him.

Chu Xiu was also stunned, then after a moment, he came back to his senses and looked suspiciously at Mo Zhixuan, "Is everything you said true?"

Mo Zhixuan nodded very solemnly, "Not a single half-truth."

"Then... whose child is in Luo Yu’s belly?" Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and then asked.

If it wasn’t Mo Zhixuan’s, then who else could it be?

"It’s from your family’s one-eyed gardener," Mo Zhixuan turned his eyes to Chu Jin and continued, "If you don’t believe me, you can ask Jin."

Chu Jin nodded, "That’s right, I can testify. Xiu, you really misunderstood Mo Zhixuan."

With that said, Chu Xiu finally believed; he knew that Chu Jin was not foolish, and it was simply impossible for Mo Zhixuan to deceive her.

Chu Xiu couldn’t be bothered to ask why Luo Yu ended up pregnant with the one-eyed gardener’s child; as long as the misunderstanding was cleared up, that was all that mattered. He looked apologetically at Mo Zhixuan, "I’m sorry, brother-in-law, I was too impulsive just now. How about you hit me back?"

Saying so, Chu Xiu immediately leaned his face forward.

Chu Xiu had used all his strength for those two punches; if it were an ordinary person, they might have already passed out.

Even for Mo Zhixuan, his mouth was battered.

"You kid, your strength has been increasing lately!" Mo Zhixuan patted Chu Xiu’s head and joked; how could he actually hit Chu Xiu?

"Must be from eating a lot!" Chu Xiu scratched his head sheepishly.

Being a teenager in his prime, with a body as sturdy as an ox, it was not surprising that he had great strength.

Chu Jin went to the bedside, reached out, and placed her hand on Zhao Yan’s wrist, feeling her pulse.

Seeing this, Chu Xiu quickly went to Chu Jin’s side, somewhat nervously said, "Sis, auntie... she’ll be okay, right?"

Zhao Yan had been in a coma for several days now.

Before, with Luo Yu present, the situation seemed somewhat better, but now, without Luo Yu, Zhao Yan could only fall into an endless coma.

Strangely, no hospital could diagnose her condition.

Heart sickness must be treated with the heart’s medicine.

Hopefully, Chu Jin could bring hope to Zhao Yan.

Mo Zhixuan also came to the bedside, asking with concern, "How is mom doing now?"

Chu Jin frowned, her tone slightly cold as she said, "The situation is not optimistic!"

Upon hearing this, both Mo Zhixuan and Chu Xiu tensed up.

Chu Jin’s medical skills were always commendable, but now, even Chu Jin said this; didn’t that imply that Zhao Yan really... had no hope left?

"What illness does mom have?" Mo Zhixuan slightly furrowed his brows, "It didn’t seem so serious before, Jin, could you have seen it wrong?"

Previously, when Luo Yu was there, although Zhao Yan could not distinguish between Luo Yu and Chu Jin, she was quite lucid and could talk and laugh. The doctors had only said that she should not be stimulated again.

Chu Jin slightly raised her eyelids, "Listening to this pulse, it doesn’t seem like an illness, but more like..." As she spoke, Chu Jin suddenly had a realization, and looked up at Chu Xiu.

Then she continued, "Right, Xiu, I just heard from the butler that Luo Yu had previously fed mom medicine. Do you still have that medicine now? Go get it for me to see."

Seeing Chu Jin like this, Chu Xiu’s heart, which had settled just moments ago, lifted once again.

Chu Jin’s medical skills had always been remarkable; now, her hesitant words indicated Zhao Yan might really be...

"All the medicine has already been consumed by auntie; what’s left is just the empty bottle... Mom hasn’t taken that medicine since Luo Yu left." Chu Xiu’s eyes flickered with a glint as he continued, "Sis, are you suspecting there’s something wrong with Luo Yu’s medicine?"

Indeed, Zhao Yan’s condition was very strange; she was clear in her thoughts, yet she consistently mistook Luo Yu for Chu Jin, and no matter how others reminded her, she couldn’t hear them.

Moreover, every time Zhao Yan had an episode, she would be fine after taking the medicine given by Luo Yu.

The moment Luo Yu wasn’t around, Zhao Yan could only stay bedridden.

Furthermore, Luo Yu’s timing was very peculiar.

Everything seemed as though it had been premeditated.

How coincidental that the person who saved Zhao Yan happened to resemble Chu Jin by a measure.

Even more coincidentally, Zhao Yan directly recognized her as Chu Jin.

Chu Xiu furrowed his brows deeply, the thoughts in his eyes profound.

If it was really like this, it would be truly terrifying.

Chu Jin did not directly respond to Chu Xiu’s words, but instead continued, "Where is the medicine bottle? Bring it to me to examine." Before the results were out, Chu Jin would not wrong anyone.
