Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lin Yu was in a panic as she stared through the glass at Han Yuan, who was surrounded by a bunch of machines, but she had to pretend to be calm and grieving.

One of the housemaids, Lily, brought porridge over and softly advised, “Miss

Lin, you should eat. How can you hold up without eating or drinking like this?

Madam’s heart will ache too if she wakes up and sees you in this state.”

Lin Yu’s body visibly swayed. “Where’s Xi Cheng?” she asked Lily, her voice hoarse and hard to hear.

“Young Master went to the company. He said he had some things to arrange and would return immediately after he finished. Miss Lin, Mr. Zhou had specially instructed us to get you to eat something. You have to take good care of yourself; many things at home need your attention,” the maid replied, feeling sorry for this future young mistress of hers.

Lin Yu turned her gaze away from Han Yuan, and it landed on the thermos flask. Lily quickly scooped out a small bowl of porridge and uttered, “Have some and take a break. You can’t collapse now.”

Lin Yu slowly sat down and accepted the bowl of porridge. “What’s the situation at home? Is there anything going on there?”

Lily answered, “Everything is currently fine; everyone is busy preparing for you and the Young Master’s wedding, but since this happened to the madam, things back home will probably get chaotic soon. That’s why you have to be well-rested. Aside from watching over Madam Gu, you still need to manage things at home so you can’t collapse.”

Lin Yu looked at Lily with tears streaming down her face and whispered, “Thank you! ”

Lily’s heart ached for her. “It’s a pity this happened to the madam just when the wedding is about to be held. *Sigh* Miss Lin, why don’t you ask Mr. Zhou to find an expert to read your fortune? It’ll be great if we don’t have to delay the wedding.”

Lin Yu ate the porridge, which settled comfortably in her stomach. She scooped up some more porridge and sighed, “So long as Auntie can get better, I’d be willing to do anything, even use my wedding to ward off any ill fortune.”

Lily was at first shocked and then delighted. ‘Miss Lin! I think that’s a great idea! If you and Young Master can get married as scheduled, perhaps Madam will be so happy that she’ll wake up! Then, that’ll be the icing on the cake!”

Lin Yu’s hand shook, and her spoon fell into the thermos flask. Her breathing had also quickened. Lily was happily walking back and forth with her hands held together and hadn’t noticed. She stated, “The thing that’s topmost on

Madam’s mind right now must surely be you and the Young Master’s marriage! But…

Lily stopped before worriedly continuing, “It’s just that this will be hard on you. Although the wedding preparations are just about done, Madam is still sick. Tongues will wag if she isn’t there for your wedding, and what will people say if your wedding bears the reputation of being used to ward off ill fortune—”

Lin Yu shook her head gently, cutting her off. “I don’t mind.” However, her hand tightly gripped the handle of the spoon she’d recovered from the flask.

When she heard that, Lily excitedly said, “Miss Lin, I’ll go back now and discuss the matter with Mr. Zhou. This isn’t something you should bring up yourself, after all. The Xi family should be begging you to do this for them.”

Lily ran off like the wind, and Lin Yu stared at the direction she’d disappeared in for a while. She slowly retracted her gaze and put the thermos flask aside before standing up and looking at Han Yuan lying inside the ward.

“You better hold on until Xi Cheng and I finish our wedding, no matter what!” Lin Yu muttered. “You can’t die yet, or Xi Cheng and I will have to observe a mourning period. Any delay might incur more problems; I don’t want to wait any longer. If I don’t marry into the Xi family now, I fear I won’t even have a place anymore. Of course, you can’t wake up now, either. I won’t allow anyone to oppose or obstruct our marriage!” Lin Yu gazed at Han Yuan and gently shut her eyes, tears trickling down her cheeks.

Xi Cheng stood outside Fang Xi’s ward for a long time. He knew neither Yun Nan nor Ye Kun would allow him near Fang Xi again. He could only seek help from Shi Nian.

Xi Cheng was visibly haggard when he met up with Shi Nian, and his face was terrifyingly ashen. “How is Auntie?” Shi Nian asked concernedly.

Xi Cheng shook his head. “She’s still unconscious. She’s suffering from a diffuse intracranial hemorrhage. She’s not out of the critical stage yet.” Shi Nian sighed softly, not knowing how to comfort him.

“How’s Fang Xi?” Xi Cheng asked hesitantly.

“Fang Xi hasn’t woken up either, but her vitals are gradually recovering,” Shi Nian replied. “She’s young, after all, and her body is in fit condition. You… should focus on taking care of Auntie. Let me know if you need help with anything at your company. Chang Yuan and I will do our best to help you.” Shi Nian could only do what he could for his friend.

Xi Cheng gloomily informed him, “Lin Yu and I will hold our wedding as scheduled in the hopes that the happy occasion may help my mother recover.” Shi Nian was stunned. He opened his mouth but, in the end, swallowed the

rebuke that was about to Durst out. He wasn’t Xl cneng; he couldn’t make any decisions for him. Even if this matter was absurd and nonsensical, it was Xi Cheng’s own choice, and he was in no position to interfere..
