As Lu Ning was thinking, Shen Yunci suddenly pushed the door open and entered.

“Ningning, Little Ci, I prepared some fruits. Do you want some now…”

Shen Yunci’s voice suddenly became softer. Lin Ci immediately pulled Lu Nings pajamas down to cover the wound.

“Thank you, Auntie.”

Lin Ci quickly got up and walked over to block Shen Yunci’s vision.

Shen Yunci was stunned.

Lu Ning was also stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and sat up, looking at Shen Yunci.

“Mommy, we’ll have them later.”

Lin Ci immediately added, “Yes, Auntie, we’ll eat later. Leave them here for now.”

Shen Yunci looked over with a smile. “Okay. What were you two doing?”

Lu Ning came to her senses faster and said right on the heels of that, “My back’s a little sore, so I had Little Ci to rub it for me.’

Shen Yunci nodded. “If it’s still sore, do tell me. I’ll take you to the doctor.”

Lu Ning nodded. “Okay, thank you, Mommy.”

Shen Yunci turned around with a smile. She seemed to have thought of something and looked at the two of them again. “By the way, Mommy forgot to knock just now. Sorry about that, darling.” Lu Ning quickly shook her head. “It’s fine.”

“Rest early, then. Good night.”

“Good night, Mommy.”

“Good night, Auntie.”

Shen Yunci turned around and closed the door.

Lin Ci heaved a sigh of relief and placed the plate of fruits on the table at the side.

“Fortunately, Auntie didn’t see it. That scared me to death.”

Lu Ning also heaved a sigh of relief.

Lin Ci hurriedly walked over and locked the door.

“Lie on your belly. I’ll check to see if you pulled on the wound.”

“l don’t think so. I was quite careful.”

Lu Ning turned around and lay on the bed while Lin Ci continued to dress her wound.

Shen Yunci, who had walked out, quickly returned to her room. After closing the door, she leaned against it and wept.

Lu Zhi was sitting on the bed reading. When he heard her voice and looked over, he was shocked and quickly went over.

“What happened?”

As he asked gently, Shen Yunci looked up at him and threw herself into his arms.

She was crying softly.

Lu Zhi was frightened. He quickly patted her back and asked, “What’s wrong? What happened? Yunci, don’t scare me.”

Lu Zhi was extremely worried. He patted her back gently, trying to calm her down.

Shen Yunci buried herself in his arms and cried. As she cried, she thought of what she had just seen and could not help but cry even harder.

It was not that she had not seen it. She had.

Her heart ached when she saw such a terrifying wound, but she could tell that Lu Ning did not want her to know, so she endured it and did not say anything.

However, that injury was so serious. How much pain must her child be in?

Shen Yunci cried as she hugged Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi was anxious, but he had to calm Shen Yunci down first. “Yunci, what’s wrong? Please tell me. Did something happen?”

Lu Zhi asked right after Shen Yunci had calmed down.

However, her face was red from crying and she could not say a word for a while. Lu Zhi hurriedly hugged her and comforted her. “It’s alright, it’s alright.

No matter what happens, I’m here.”

He patted her and coaxed her like he was coaxing a child.

When Shen Yunci finally calmed down, Lu Zhi gently wiped her tears. “Stop crying, dear. If Ningning sees you like this, she’ll become worried again.”

It would have been better if he had not said that. As soon as he mentioned Lu Ning, Shen Yunci thought of something again and tears fell from her eyes. Lu Zhi was frightened again, but he knew that it might have something to do with Lu Ning.
