Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

Naturally, Wen Xinya heard of Xia Ruya sustaining head injuries and getting hospitalized—the same thing once happened to her. Benefits brought this pair of lovers of two lifetimes together and also caused them to fall out with each other—Wen Xinya couldn’t help but sigh.

However, everything wasn’t over yet.

Xia Ruya, enjoy the grand feast that I’ve personally prepared for you!

These few days, Wen Xinya had been nursing her pregnancy in the hospital. Mrs. Tan and Mother He also moved into the hospital especially to wait on her. Mrs. Tan was well-versed in medicinal herbs and specialized in health nourishment while Mother He had the experience of taking care of the Mo Family for two generations. The two of them complemented each other well and took extremely good care of Wen Xinya.

Wen Xinya was still feeling weak and had a poor appetite. Mrs. Tan and Mother He tried means and ways to whip up all sorts of food for her. Every day, she took small but frequent meals and didn’t go hungry.

Si Yiyan was extremely caring towards her. He never outsourced her morning and night dosages of pregnancy nourishing medicine to others. Regardless of how busy he was with work, he would personally brew the medicine and make time to accompany her every day.

The only thing that was unbearable for Wen Xinya was that everyone around her was too anxious about her pregnancy—in the two days that she had stayed in the hospital, she almost never left her bed.

Wen Xinya was just feeling bored and thinking if she should call and disturb Si Yiyan when the door to the ward swung open to Cleopatra’s strong body and bobbing head as it dashed into the ward bravely and circled it non-stop.

Wen Xinya was very excited. “Cleopatra, I missed you so much.”

Cleopatra jumped onto the chair by the hospital bed, sat down, and licked its female owner’s hand.

Wen Xinya hugged Cleopatra’s head happily as she stroke Cleopatra’s lustrous hair, her smile full of radiance.

“Sis-in-law, I knew that you were bored and specially brought Cleopatra over for you.” Yueze walked into the ward. Seeing how happy Sis-in-law was, he couldn’t help but get influenced as well.

Watching how the woman and dog displayed their affections as if no one was around, he understood why previously Ninth Young Master got him to send Cleopatra over. A hint of dilemma and awkwardness flashed past his eyes.

“Yueze, thank you.” Wen Xinya was overjoyed.

Yueze was very good at sucking up—it was obviously Ninth Young Master’s orders, but he made everything sound like his credit.

Just then, Xu Xianghu went up by the hospital bed to make his presence known. “Sis-in-law, I’m here too—Cleopatra was sent over by me and Yueze.”

He looked at Cleopatra which was being affectionate to Sis-in-law with some jealousy. Sis-in-law would never smile so radiantly at him. Sigh! Nowadays, men were not much better off than dogs—what a tragedy.

Wen Xinya looked at Little Hu.

What was with his pure and innocent expression which was begging for petting, pampering, and praise?

“Hehe, Sis-in-law, why are you looking at me like this?” Xu Xianghu saw that Sis-in-law finally shifted her attention from Cleopatra onto himself and couldn’t help but shoot a challenging glance at Cleopatra.

Cleopatra felt the hostility from Xu Xianghu, bared its teeth at him, and growled in a threatening manner.

Wen Xinya patted Cleopatra’s head and looked at Xu Xianghu seriously. “Did you take your medicine when you left home this morning?”

Yuexi’s brand of anti-stupidity medicine specifically targeted all kinds of jokers.

Xu Xianghu looked at Sis-in-law, feeling lost. “Sis-in-law, what do you mean? I’m not ill, why do I need to take medicine? You’re pregnant and unwell—you must have taken quite a bit of medicine.”

Saying that he put on a “you’re so pitiful” expression.

Yueze looked at Xu Xianghu’s smart-aleck face and totally didn’t dare to see further. He dared to do this to Sis-in-law—regardless of whether he did it unintentionally or purposely, he only had one thought: treasure life, stay away from the joker.

Wen Xinya really wanted to spit at him as she squinted her eyes slightly and looked at him with hostility.

He did it intentionally, indeed purposely—he was simply the ever-professional assassin.

“Sis-in-law, it’s not such a bad thing to eat too much medicine. You’re unwell and should take more medicine—only then you can recover more quickly.”

Feeling Sis-in-law’s threatening gaze, Xu Xianghu felt his insides churn violently. Sis-in-law’s expression was simply the same as Boss—Boss looked like this when he wasn’t happy.

Could it be that he annoyed Sis-in-law?

Yueze really wanted to cover his face and escape as he realized that his decision of asking Xu Xianghu to accompany him to the hospital today was simply a huge mistake. This lad was obviously here to play dumb.

Wen Xinya was thoroughly provoked as she stared at Xu Xianghu and said angrily, “I think you’re the one who took too much medicine for jokers. Indeed, you took too much medicine and can’t stop!”

She was really wrong about Xu Xianghu.

She thought that he was just a joker. Unexpectedly, he was actually also so good at cheap jibes.

“Sis-in-law, Yueze said that overdosing makes one dumb, so I don’t usually take much medicine and didn’t overdose.” Xu Xianghu explained to Sis-in-law, feeling wronged. He didn’t understand why did Sis-in-law suddenly became angry—he was obviously being caring about Sis-in-law’s health!

Just then, Yueze’s eyes darkened—he almost fainted.

Xu Xianghu did it intentionally. Indeed, he did it purposely!

Was he trying to divert the disaster or drag him along to hell?

Overdosing makes one dumb—

Makes one dumb—

One dumb—

Dumb—

The words reverberated in Wen Xinya’s mind as her entire face turned hazy involuntarily. She stared at Xu Xianghu and almost shot holes through him with her gaze.

Xu Xianghu’s beast-like instinct warned him about the danger. He couldn’t help but tremble and gulp—Sis-in-law was so terrifying now.

Yueze saw that Sis-in-law was surrounded by haziness and hurriedly said, “Ah—Sis-in-law, I suddenly remembered that I’ve gotta attend to something. I’m leaving first.”

As he spoke, he even stepped backward.

Wen Xinya’s sinister gaze fell on him as she asked, “Overdoing makes one dumb?”

Yueze’s body stiffened as his plan to escape fell through. Against Sis-in-law’s murderous gaze, he braced himself and said, “Ah—that… Ugh… it’s all because Little Hu likes to take medicine for no good reasons, so I… I…”

Yueze wiped off some sweat, didn’t even dared to breathe deeply, and couldn’t wait to punch Xu Xianghu, that joker to death.

Just then, Xu Xianghu couldn’t help but interrupt. “Nonsense—when did I like to take… Mmm mmm…”

“Little Hu forgot to take his medicine when he left home today. I’ll bring him back to take his medicine first ha…” Yueze covered Xu Xianghu’s mouth, dragged his 1.9-meters-tall frame, and kept walking towards the exit.

Wen Xinya simply watched as Xu Xianghu and Yueze escaped with cold feet and was so angry that she punched the bed nonstop. Frightened, Cleopatra leaped off the chair, ran to the corner furthest away from Wen Xinya, and hid.

Sob sob, indeed, the female owner took too much medicine!
