âWho?â
âRed Lotus!â
Butler Fu was stunned and immediately made his way to the room. Just as he pushed open the door, he saw Chu He sitting quietly on the bed. A servant was trying to persuade her, but she took no notice of her and held onto the bedside table with a firm gaze.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhatâs wrong?â
Butler Foo walked over and looked at her, then at the servant, with a puzzled expression.
âButler Fu, sheâs just woken up. The doctor told her not to move about, but sheâs insisting on getting out of bed and walking around!â
When Butler Fu heard this, he was relieved it was only a small matter. âYouâve been lying down for so long, you should really move around!â
The servant fell silent.
Butler Fu walked over and smiled at her. âMiss, youâre finally awake! Youâve been lying here for two months!â
Red Lotus looked at him and opened her mouth. Before she could say anything, Butler Fu seemed to have guessed and interrupted, âDonât worry! I know what youâre worried about! Baby Chu is fine! He went to school and probably isnât back yet!â
âSchool?â She looked even more confused.
âBaby Chu has already been included in the household register. Like other kids his age, heâs started kindergarten.â
The elderly man added, âWhen this little lad heard that he could go to school, he was so happy that he danced around! After all, children at this age are most playful! How lonely would it be if he had no friends?â
When Chu He heard this, her cold expression softened a little. Her gaze was filled with gratitude as she softly said, âThank you.â
She could tell that Butler Fu took very good care of Baby Chu.
Most importantly, perhaps because of his age, there was a sense of benevolence around Butler Fu. It was hard to imagine that he and that cold and cruel man were master and servant.
As long as it was someone who was truly good to Baby Chu, she was grateful for it.
Chu He said, âIâd like to get out of bed and walk around.â
Because she had been lying down for so long, the lack of movement had caused the function of her limbs to decline.
She knew very well that she needed immediate rehabilitation.
When Butler Fu heard this, he immediately said, âDonât be in a hurry to get off the bed and walk around! You just woke up and your body hasnât adapted yet! Besides, you havenât eaten for two months. Why donât you eat something first? Otherwise, if you insist on getting off the bed, Iâm afraid youâll have low blood sugar.â
Chu He smiled gratefully. âAlright then!â
Butler Fu returned a satisfied smile before he turned around and instructed, âGet the kitchen to prepare some porridge and side dishes!â
âAlright.â
About ten minutes later, the servants brought porridge and some delicious side dishes. They were afraid that her stomach would not be used to the sudden intake, so they did not give her rice for the time being. Instead, they had prepared coarse grain porridge.
Chu He was touched by Butler Fuâs thoughtfulness. One could tell from minute details whether a person was truly concerned.
Chu He picked up her chopsticks with trembling hands and started to eat slowly.
Butler Fu looked at her and felt sorry for her.
This woman used to be enemies with the Gu family.
But for some odd reason, he was caring towards her. Could the reason be that she was Baby Chuâs mother?
Or was it because he felt too sorry over the fact that a woman should have to go through so much physical hardship in order to survive?
Especially when he saw her struggling to hold the chopsticks and then trying to slowly swallow the food. He obviously felt a stinging pain in his heart.
âIs it too hot?â
Chu He slowly shook her head.
Butler Fu smiled and sat by the bed, giving her an update about Baby Chu.
Chu He listened attentively.
