gs, she had a clear idea of the situation.In a spacious and bright office, Jiang Ming carefully reviewed the materials Wen Man had submitted, smiling gently: "You were introduced by Shaoting. Let me g...Qin Yu measured Xiao Qin's temperature and gave him medicine, but half an hour later, Xiao Qin was still feverish.

Her palm gently brushed his forehead, which was burning hot.

Right now, she decided to go to the hospital.

She gently patted his little face, called his name, and whispered to him that she was going to take him to the hospital. Little Qin was half-conscious and struggled to wake up, wanting to put on his clothes and go downstairs by himself.

Qin Yu's heart ached.

She knew she wasn't good to him, a little bit harsh, so he wanted to do his best even when half asleep. She touched Xiao Qinfen's head and hugged him.

Little Qin burrowed his head into her arms and refused to come out.

Even with a fever, he still whimpered and cried... Holding on tight with his little hands.

Qin Yu lowered his head and gently touched him, his heart growing more and more sour.

Actually, she blamed him, and who else could she blame His birth wasn't a choice. Who would willingly be born as an illegitimate child Qin Yu spoke in a low voice: "Let's get dressed, sister. I'll take you to the hospital."

The little guy opened his eyes, jumped up, and was ready to do it himself.

Qin Yu took the clothes and had him sit on the bedside leaning against her. She had never taken care of a child before, but at this moment she was incredibly skilled, perhaps this is just the nature of women!

Little Qin's face was flushed red, and he felt lightheaded when getting out of bed. However, he refused to be carried by his aunt, saying he didn't want to tire her out... He was very sensible, knowing that his aunt was here to care for the baby who would arrive soon, and that as a big boy, he wouldn't need carrying. Seeing him like this, his aunt felt touched, so she half-carried, half-hugged him downstairs.

Qin Yu, supporting her over six months of pregnancy, went downstairs to hail a cab.

The driver was quite kind. Seeing the two women with a child and no man to help, he stepped forward and helped carry little Qin onto the car. After placing her safely, he asked, "Where's the man of the house"

Qin Yu whispered, "I'm on a business trip! I can't make it back in time."

The driver casually chimed in, “How can you be a father like that You're about to become a father again and you leave your wife and children alone at home. Luckily, there's an aunt taking care of them.”

Little Qin clenched his lips.

His little hand quietly grasped Qin Yu's, afraid she would say, "This isn't your child…" He was afraid others would know about his disgraceful origins.

But as the driver got in, Qin Yu softly said, "When he gets back, we should talk about this!"

The driver slammed on the gas pedal.

He thought Xiao Qin was handsome and took another look in the rearview mirror, he smiled: “The child looks just like you! You two are so alike!”

Xiao Qin became nervous again.

Qin Yu's arm reached down, finding his, and gently clasped his feverish palm.

She leaned Xiao Qin against her shoulder.

She hugged him tightly, and she whispered softly that he could sleep for a while, and they would call him when they got to the hospital... Xiao Qin leaned against her chest, feeling the woman's tenderness. His face was even redder than before.

Qin Yu looked at him, and suddenly remembered that he was only eight years old.

……

When they arrived at the hospital, the driver was very kind. He carried Xiao Qin to the emergency room and didn't charge them much extra. He said he could see that it wasn't easy for the two women.

Qin Yu thanked everyone and quickly found a doctor.

After the doctor's examination, he gave me an IV drip and said I needed to stay overnight for observation. If everything is alright, I can be discharged tomorrow morning, but I will need another day of IV drips afterwards.

Aunt went to the hospital and said, "It's just for one night, no need to waste that money, right Just stay in the infusion room for a night!" Mrs. Zhang, you go back home and I'll stay here."

Qin Yu whispered, "How can this be done! It's so cold outside. The hospital doesn't have heating in this month, and he might get sicker. It's better to spend some money to make him more comfortable."

Auntie saw that she had booked a single room, which costs 800 yuan per night.

She tentatively said, "Mr. Zhang, you're really rich, aren't you"

Qin Yu wasn't stupid, she smiled faintly: "If we were really rich, we wouldn't rent a house. We just don't want the child to be wronged!"

Little Qin struggled against the IV, his face flushed red, staring at her.

Qin Yu patted his face and told him to go to sleep, saying that he would get better by morning.

Xia Qin pulled her hand, her voice small: "Will you leave"

Qin Yu said no, saying she would stay here.

Little Qin shifted his body, wanting to lay her down. He said, "Baby needs to sleep too!"

Qin Yu was also tired.

She leaned against his pillow, her body slightly turned, covered by half a sheet.

She kept vigil over Little Qin.

After a while, the little guy cautiously shuffled over and pressed his head against her chest. He whispered an apology to her, so softly that it was barely audible... Qin Yu's eyes welled up again.

She didn't speak, she just gently held him.

After a long silence, she gently touched his head and said, "Forget about all that! From now on, you're Qin Yu's younger brother."

Xiao Qin flung himself into her arms. He didn't speak, but soon Qin Yu's chest was wet with his tears.

She sighed softly to herself: she was too gentle, it would be better if Zhang Boyan came to teach her!

When the sun rose, little Qin had recovered from his fever.

Qin Yu only then called Zhang Baiyan and told him about this. Zhang Baiyan was silent on the phone for a long time, he said: "Or, let's just shelve the project! I can't trust you guys in the city."

Qin Yu, however, disagreed.

She spoke in a hushed voice: "You know better than I do how hard this project is to get. For you, it's not just a few million in profit. This project comes from the Lu Corporation. With their backing, your path will be much easier. Without it, how many people would dare to work with you"

She didn't say it nicely, but she was right.

Zhang Baiyan remained silent.

Qin Yu's voice dropped again, she whispered softly: "The money I have plus the money you left for Xiao Qin Fen is enough to cover the family expenses, even if you never earn a penny! But Zhang Baiyan, what do you want to achieve by trying to make a comeback If it doesn't matter to you, then come back... as long as you don't regret it later!"

Zhang Baiyan moved slightly: "Qin Yu!"

Qin Yu choked up a little: "I don't desire wealth and luxury. It's just that... if you don't fight, don't struggle, Zhang Baiyan, I'm afraid you'll never get out of this rut, you'll never be happy. Don't think that staying by my side is about suffering, but it's not about being a burden either!"

"Zhang Baiyan, I can take care of myself, and I can also take care of Qin Fen."

She spoke with unwavering conviction.

She thought, she hadn't always been this way, she used to be fragile too.

Because these days have allowed her to grow and gain confidence to overcome every hardship in life, she said that supporting him means truly supporting him, rather than waiting for him to come home every day to cook for her.

Qin Yu's true feelings, Zhang Baiyan has nothing to repay.

He murmured in agreement. He said he would come back in two days and that Qin Fen, that rascal, should eat more and get sick less, so as not to cause his sister trouble...Little Qin Fen obediently agreed and even called him brother.

Zhang Baiyan hung up the phone.

He looked at himself in the mirror, his hairline was starting to turn white. Xiao Qin still called him brother, he couldn't help but chuckle.

……

Once Xia Qin confirmed that everything was alright at the hospital, Qin Yu took him home.

This minor illness is finally over.

While we were having lunch, Auntie said in a rather embarrassed tone, "Mrs. Zhang, I have something to tell you... Well, one of my relatives just had a baby and needs someone to take care of her. She immediately thought of me, so I might not be able to stay here."

Qin Yu immediately understood.

The auntie is finding a new home because she thinks there's too much going on here and it's tiring.

She ate slowly, then considered for a moment and said, "We can still talk about the salary, but at most I can give you an increase of two thousand. Any more is impossible! Qin Fen only gets sick occasionally, he doesn't need special care normally. We agreed on this before."

Auntie took a tissue and wiped her hands.

She said after a moment, "I'm still sorry, Mrs. Zhang. No one on my family side can be spared!"

Qin Yu knew she thought the money was too little.

Although she needs someone here, she can't just raise the salary to 20,000 out of thin air. After all, a live-in aunt isn't the same as a postnatal confinement nanny. She hummed and said: "Alright! I'll pay you for these two days' work!"

"No, no!" the aunt waved her hands quickly.

She was always feeling guilty because her new employer lived right across the street from Mrs. Zhang.dy was trembling.Perhaps out of fear, or maybe for some other reason.She struggled several times, but she couldn't break free because Gu Yunfan wouldn't let go.Gu Yunfan turned his head to look at the...
