The Miracle Doctor’s Wife is Not a Weak Lady! - Chapter 142

142 Open Gambit

On the way home, Bei Shuo sat beside Mu Ci happily, her smile never fading.

Seeing how happy she was, Mu Ci was also happy. It did not matter even if he knew that he would be extorted endlessly by Luo Bing.

However, he could not help but ask, “Why are you so happy?”

Bei Shuo patted the food box in the corner of the seat. “Their snacks are so delicious. They’re so happy just because their family member is healthy. It’ll be even more lively when Sister Shen Bai’s baby is born in the future. I like the atmosphere in their house.”

!!
Mu Ci touched her hair and felt a little emotional.

The atmosphere in the Shen Family was indeed good. It was something that the Mu Family did not have. Luo Bing had done the right thing. He had found a good backer for Bei Shuo.

Bei Shuo’s smile faded. “Brother, Shen Su is dating Mu En. But you said that Mu En and Bei Le are together. Should I tell Shen Su about this?”

Mu Ci continued to stroke Bei Shuo’s hair. “We don’t have any evidence to prove that Mu En and Bei Le are together. It’s just a guess. How are you going to tell Shen Su?”

“But—” Bei Shuo frowned.

Mu Ci interrupted her. “Shen Su is very doted on in the Shen Family. Even though Luo Bing doesn’t have a good relationship with his father and stepmother, he still treats this younger sister well. That includes Shen Bai. Hence, if Mu En doesn’t behave appropriately, it will be difficult for him to hide with so many eyes in the Shen Family. Don’t worry, Shen Su won’t be willing to suffer a loss.”

Bei Shuo nodded. “Yes, Shen Su said that she’s famous for her bad temper, but I think she’s very good!”

Mu Ci smiled. “That’s because she likes you. Naturally, she won’t lose her temper at you.”

Bei Shuo thought about it and agreed. “I like her too. She speaks her mind. She’s straightforward, unlike my schoolmates who have a lot of thoughts. I don’t want to guess with them. I’m already tired from just Teacher Li.”

Only then did Bei Shuo remember the serious matter. She hurriedly explained in detail about the acupuncture treatment today.

“I think she might have some consciousness. It’s not that she doesn’t have any perception of the world, but Dr. Li is watching her very closely. I can’t say anything more. Besides, it’s impossible for her to trust me immediately.

“How’s her condition?” Mu Ci asked.

Bei Shuo shook her head. “It’s not very optimistic. I don’t know if the medical records and medicine Dr. Li gave me are real. Without real medical records and pulses, I’m afraid it won’t be enough to treat her with my current diagnosis. Brother, you have to think of a way to save her. She’s too pitiful.”

Mu Ci patted her back. “Go back and do a portrait with Uncle Liu later. Then we’ll try to find her.”

Bei Shuo hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Back home, Duan Si was sitting on the sofa and sulking. Shen Yu and Bei Le were carefully coaxing her.

Bei Shuo sighed inwardly. She couldn’t help but miss the Shen Family even more.

Song Nan came from the back garden and entered with them.

“You’re finally back.” Song Nan greeted them with a smile.

When she got closer, she lowered her voice and said to Mu Ci, “Auntie is angry with Uncle. Mu Ci, don’t take anything Auntie says to heart.”

With that, she turned around and entered without even looking at Bei Shuo.

Bei Shuo was a little surprised by Song Nan’s explicit attitude.

Although Song Nan did not have a strong presence, she could provoke Duan Si’s emotions every time she spoke, so Bei Shuo was very wary of Song Nan. However, Song Nan was a careful person. Even though Bei Shuo could feel her malice, she could not blame her.

She didn’t know what happened, but Song Nan suddenly made her stand so clear.

Mu Ci frowned. He grabbed Bei Shuo’s hand and drove the wheelchair in.

Duan Si’s eyes were red and her face was dark. When she saw Mu Ci, her expression became even darker. “Do you have any rules in this house? Do you think I’m dead? You didn’t even greet me when you came back so late!”

Bei Shuo pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. It was better to leave this matter to Mu Ci. He had to coax his own Mom. Even if he didn’t, it was up to him to anger her. She couldn’t say anything.

However, Shen Yu chimed in and said sternly, “Bei Shuo! How can you not even have basic manners? You should at least greet your elders when you’re late, right? Your mother-in-law hasn’t eaten dinner yet!”

Bei Shuo was a little surprised. “Why?”

“Why—you still have the cheek to ask why? We’re all waiting for you to come back for dinner. You didn’t even greet us. We can only wait like this! Do you have a brain?” Shen Yu scolded angrily.
