Cheng Che trembled in shock. When he raised his head to look at Mu Chen, he discovered Mu Chen did not seem surprised at all.

“Brother, don’t you think this is unbelievable?” Cheng Che asked.

Mu Chen did not speak.

Cheng Che sighed before he said, “Those two don’t seem like they have any intersection in their lives; how did they even get together? If sister-in-law finds out about this, will she be sad?”

Upon hearing these words, Mu Chen looked up and said, “Don’t let Song Ning find out about this.”

Cheng Che nodded. “Of course. Who can accept this? Ning Zhe is really a scumbag!”

Mu Chen was very worried. He could keep this matter from Song Ning for now, but there was definitely a risk of exposure. Secrets would not stay buried for long, after all. Since Song Ning was pregnant now, he did not want to upset her over these meaningless things.

After mulling over it for a moment, Mu Chen asked hesitantly, “Cheng Che, do you think we should slowly reveal this matter to Song Ning? I’m afraid if she finds out about this matter from someone else, it’ll be even harder for her to accept it.”

Cheng Che fell silent for a moment. After a moment, he nodded slowly. “You have a point, but… no one else knows about this so there’s no risk of her finding out about this matter, right?”

‘Ye Cheng knows…’ Mu Chen was certain that Ye Cheng knew about this matter. However, he was also rather certain Ye Cheng would try to keep this matter a secret. After all, if this matter was made known, it would be detrimental to Ye Cheng. With this thought in mind, he calmed down quite a bit.

…

At this time, Ning Zhe was lying in his bed in the ward, but his eyes were already opened.

Ning Chun stood next to Ning Zhe, looking very alert as he would check the entrance every so often to make sure there was no one while he listened to Ning Zhe’s instructions.

“No one can know that I’ve regained my consciousness. Look for Ye An as well…”

Ye An was Ning Zhe’s personal attending doctor.

Ning Chun nodded. “Yes, Master.”

“Let Su Tong bring Ning Dong to the company; reduce the time they visit me. Investigate everything that happened to Zhuang Yi before she died; don’t miss out even on the smallest detail. Make sure to find the whereabouts of the books as well…” Ning Zhe said, a little out of breath by the time he finished speaking.

Upon seeing this, Ning Chun said worriedly, “I understand, Master. You should rest; don’t tire yourself out. You have to get well as soon as possible. Otherwise, you won’t be able to do what you want to do.”

Ning Zhe nodded with difficulty. “I know, I know. Even if I make a will now, the legitimacy of it might be questioned.”

Ning Chun’s eyes reddened slightly as he remained silent.

At this time, Ning Zhe suddenly reached out and grabbed Ning Chun’s hand. “Ah Chun, Xiaxia, is pregnant!”

Ning Chun looked up in shock at the weak Ning Zhe.

A genuine smile appeared on Ning Zhe’s face before he said, “Xiaxia is pregnant so you must make sure to protect her.”

Ning Chun nodded solemnly. “Yes, I’ll send someone to watch over Young Miss.”

Ning Zhe tightened his grip on Ning Chun’s hand as he said, “Ah Chun, if I’m not around, you’ll have to shoulder the responsibility of the Ning family. You have to treat Xiaxia like family. Can you do that?”

Ning Chun hurriedly replied, “Master, Ah Chun will risk his life to protect the Young Miss if necessary…”

Ning Zhe smiled. “Ah Chun, remember to protect Ning Xia. You have to treat her like your little sister. You must protect her well. Remember these words.”

Ning Chun could no longer hold back his tears. His tears rolled down his face and dripped on the back of Ning Zhe’s hand.

Ning Zhe sighed softly. “The car accident this time was too dangerous. When I still had a little bit of consciousness left, I wondered to myself what I should do. I haven’t told Ning Dong many things, and I wondered if he’d understand… Fortunately, I didn’t die. I still have many things to do so I can’t die yet…”

“My life was given by you, master. I know your intentions, and I won’t go against Master’s wishes. Don’t worry, Master, even if I have to give up my life, I’ll definitely protect the Young Miss.”

With these words, Ning Zhe nodded, clearly relieved.
