Han Yuan pursed her lips tightly and refused to eat the food fed to her. Lin Yu smiled gently and put down the spoon and the bowl of porridge. “You don’t want to eat? Then you don’t have to. Don’t worry, I won’t force you! You should know very well that I’m the last person who wants you to recover.”

Lin Yu leaned close and lowered her voice to say, “It’s best if you continue being like this forever. I’ll keep caring for you, and my reputation as a filial daughter-in-law will only grow bigger and bigger! You’re my benefactor, Mom —my benefactor for life! ”

Lin Yu straightened up, all smiles. Han Yuan’s eyes widened as she glared even harder at her, opening her mouth to hiss, “Ha-argh, hah, ah-ss.”

Lin Yu laughed out loud, her laughter growing in strength until she bent over. She felt extremely happy as she looked at Han Yuan struggling in agony. Someone knocked on the ward door twice before opening it. Surprised, Lin Yu turned to look at the newcomer before the smile on her face could fade.

Yun Nan noticed, glanced at the furious-looking Han Yuan, and smiled. “You seem happy. Has Madam Xi’s condition improved again?”

Lin Yu reached out, brushed her hair back, and calmly answered with a faint smile, “Yes! My mother’s condition is good today. I’m trying to get her to eat something.”

“Oh, how filial of you,” Yun Nan uttered, walking past Lin Yu and coming to Han Yuan’s bed. Han Yuan stared at Yun Nan before her, and her gaze changed. It was no longer fierce; there was a hint of plea in her eyes instead. It caught Yun Nan’s attention but was soon dismissed, thinking she’d mistook it.

Lin Yu quickly stood and blocked Han Yuan from Yun Nan’s sight. She stretched her hand out and gestured to one side, saying, “Yun Nan, my mother’s tired now. Let her rest for a while. Let’s talk over there.”

Yun Nan smiled at Han Yuan and said, “I’ve come to visit you. You must get better; otherwise, Lin Yu will be left in charge of the family. You at least care about your son even if you don’t care about your daughter-in-law, right? Will you be at ease leaving the Xi family in their hands?”

Lin Yu looked at Yun Nan with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes. “Didn’t your in-laws put you in charge of the Shi family without worry? If you can do it, why can’t I?”

Yun Nan chuckled, “How can you compare yourself to me?” Lin Yu’s expression darkened, and she gazed at Yun Nan somewhat hostilely.

Yun Nan’s smile became even more amiable as she uttered, “You’re much more pleasing to the eye like this.” She then threw the two listening devices onto the table before Lin Yu. “You dropped these in our ward. I thought you might have use of them, so I’m returning them to you.”

Lin Yu’s expression changed. She took a step back and stubbornly stated, “No!

Those aren’t mine! Take them away! They aren’t mine!”

Yun Nan smiled lightly and put away the listening devices. “Oh? Is that so?

Then, they’re Shi Gao’s?”

Lin Yu glared at Yun Nan. Yun Nan took out a folder and placed it on the table. “Lin Yu, you know the relationship between the Xi and the Shi families better than I do. This document is an internal resolution of the Xi Corporation to acquire 12 of the Shi Corporation’s companies. I only want to know if this is yours, Xi Cheng’s, or all of the Xi Corporation’s shareholders’ idea.”

Yun Nan gave her a faint smile. “The day has eyes, and the night has ears, Lin Yu! I don’t begrudge you for using the Xi family’s power to clear away all obstacles in your path, but it was unwise of you to touch the Shi family!”

She continued, “Don’t play games with me! You came with guns blazing to kick the Shi family when they’re down, so don’t come crying to me about how hard it’s been for you when you get defeated and ask me to let you go. That move might work once or twice, but not always. You’ve already used up all my goodwill towards the Xi family! You won’t have the chance to regret your actions from now on!”

Yun Nan turned around to glance at Han Yuan on the hospital bed and smiled at the woman when she saw Han Yuan staring at her before heading towards the ward’s door.

Lin Yu calmed herself down and snapped sharply, “Stop right there! Yun Nan, what do you mean?”

Yun Nan didn’t turn around when she replied, “What did you mean when you turned against the Shi family? I have nothing to say about you backstabbing the Shi family when I was mindful of the friendship between the Xi and Shi families. Business is business, after all. But since you don’t care about our two families’ friendship, I hope you won’t come and talk to me about friendship when something happens. That would be beyond the pale!”

“Xi Cheng and Shi Nian may be close friends, but you and I are just their wives, and we don’t know each other well, so there’s no need for all that! Isn’t that what you thought when you made that decision?” With that, Yun Nan closed the ward’s door and left..
