curled the corner of his lips into a gentle smile, which was strangely eerie. 。"I think...no, it's just something I said casually." 。"Xiao An's smile gradually stiffened, then he patted his chest and...Chapter 302: The Agony of Wanting to See But Being Unable To

She had no idea how dangerous his work was until recently, when he'd been so busy with this mission that he was running himself ragged. After she did some research on drug enforcement, she got a better understanding; it was extremely dangerous. Everyone had to write a will and make arrangements before an operation...

"It's late." He pulled her away from his embrace, pretending to help her lie down. "Rabbit, go to sleep for a while. If you oversleep, you might wake up to find I've already left."

"No, I told you not to go, why can't you listen to me once..." An Xiaotu immediately held him tightly, as if she would let go even slightly, he would leave her arms and carry out such a dangerous mission.

"I'm so sorry, Rabbit," he kept wiping the tears from her face, apologizing with heartfelt remorse.

“Tang Yucheng, I don’t want your apology. I want you to promise me that you won’t go on this mission.” An Xiaotu still insisted, crying as she pleaded, “Don’t you know… Or maybe Sikong Liuyi and Kosa are in cahoots She doesn't actually want to help you get information from the drug lord organization; if you go, Sikong Liuyi will recognize you, capture the thief first, capture the king... You'll be their target, and you might get hurt… Can you please not go”

"I know, I had guessed Liu Yi's identity before and made thorough preparations; so this time, I will be extra careful."

"Tang Yucheng, I don't allow you…"

An Xiaotu hadn't finished her words when she felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck, and then she fell into darkness.

Tang Yucheng supported her body, remembering what the doctor had said about her emotions not being easily agitated, especially because of last time, she had been in the hospital for so long. If things got dangerous, it could lead to premature birth.

If you don't knock her out, she might cry all night and hurt herself or the little rabbit.

"Rabbit, I promise I'll be back safe and sound." Tang Yucheng wiped away the tears on her face, gently helped her lie down, covered her with the quilt, and then went into the bathroom to get a hot towel to wipe away the tears from her face.

After finishing his work, he called Ling Shuang over and handed her two sleeping pills.

"When the second young mistress wakes up tomorrow, if she is agitated, let her sleep a little longer. I will try to come back as early as possible."

"Yes, Second Master," Ling Shuang replied respectfully.

Tang Yucheng's handsome face was expressionless. He coldly grunted, then turned and walked two steps before stopping, turning back to walk back.

Taking the sleeping pills back from Ling Shuang’s hands, he said, “No need for this. I’ll ask the doctor about the dosage later and have her sleep through until I get back tomorrow.”

If she wakes up and finds out she's already gone on a mission and hasn't come back, she'll definitely get upset again. It's better to let her sleep until I get back; that way, I can just make up a lie, like the operation was canceled, and she won't be angry.

This sleeping pill will not have any adverse effects on pregnant women and children, and it is only used once.

……

However, even though Tang Yucheng had given An Xiaotu a sufficient dosage of sleeping pills, she woke up at noon the next day.

When An Xiaotu opened her eyes, she stared blankly at the ceiling for a few seconds. Then she slowly turned her head. The pain in her neck made her stiffen abruptly. Immediately, memories from before she fainted last night flooded back, tears welling up in her eyes.

Raising her hand to touch the pain at the back of her neck, she was both angry and heartbroken, muttering under her breath: That bastard actually knocked her unconscious just to complete his mission!

I looked at the time, it was almost 1 p.m.

If they were right all along, then by now, they should be in action. Maybe the police and military have already clashed with those drug lords...

Thinking of this, An Xiaotu kept praying in her heart that her initial guess might be wrong. Maybe the drug trafficking organization wasn't trading today, or maybe it wasn't at that pier...

She tried her best to control herself from thinking negatively.

Her head was still a little dizzy, so she lay in bed for a while longer. To prevent herself from overthinking and spiraling into mental breakdown, An Xiaotu got out of bed, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then left her room.

Downstairs in the living room, Aunt Rong saw An Xiaotu walk down with a blank expression. She was so surprised that her jaw almost dropped; didn't the second young master say that the second young mistress would sleep until the evening before waking up

While Ling Shuang had a cold face, her eyes also flashed with surprise.

Has the Second Young Master got the fake medicine How is it that the Second Mistress has woken up so early

However, looking at the Second Madam, she seemed very calm and didn't appear to be emotionally agitated by the Second Master going on a mission.

Ling Shuang immediately reacted and said to Rong Shen, "Aunt Rong, please cook."

"Huh Oh, oh, okay. I'll cook right away, Madam, please wait a moment." Rong-Shen reacted after a pause and quickly agreed, then hurried into the kitchen.

Because the second young master said that the second young mistress might not wake up until evening, Madame Rong did not prepare lunch for the second young mistress.

After nearly ten minutes, Rong Shen brought out some heated snacks and a cup of hot milk to the table, and said to An Xiaotu, "Second Madam, please have something to eat first to fill your stomach. Lunch will be ready soon."

An Xiaotu just hummed softly, then got up and walked to the table to sit down, eating silently.

Although she had absolutely no appetite now, thinking of the little bunny in her tummy forced her to eat.

Since she was going to have a proper meal later, An Xiaotu finished her warm milk and ate a little snack before stopping.

He stood up from the chair, left the hall, and walked toward the backyard.

Ling Shuang hurried into the courtyard and greeted Rong Shen, then quickly followed An Xiaotu to the back garden.

Laying on the chaise longue, basking in the warm sunlight, occasionally a cool breeze brushed past, everything seemed so pleasant. But An Xiaotu's heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Hands on her swollen belly, slowly clenched into fists, gripping her clothes tightly. She desperately wanted to call that man, to hear his low, magnetic voice tinged with coldness, but she dared not, couldn't…

I never knew missing someone could be so terrible. Wanting to see him but not being able to, it's such a torment.

That despicable bastard... when he gets back, she definitely won't forgive him.

About an hour passed.

Mrs. Rong, who had already prepared the lunch, arrived at the back garden. Seeing An Xiaotu staring blankly into the distance with a lifeless expression, she respectfully and kindly said in a soft voice, "Second Madam, lunch is ready. Please come back to the house for a meal."

After she finished speaking, An Xiaotu didn't react. Rong Shen repeated herself again, but there was still no response.

Faced with no other choice, Rong Shen could only look helplessly to Ling Shuang for help. of thin air”“You look down on me, you can take advantage of your favoritism to get Dad and Mom to kick me out of the Tang family; instead of complaining about me in front of Mom while falsely saying...
