Stardust in the Moonlight: Little Wildcat, Don't Try to Run Away

Chapter 257: It’s a lie to say I’m not worried, and it’s also a lie to say I’m not jealous

Rongyue went home after attending the award ceremony, planning to pick up the children in the evening.

After tidying up at home for a while, I heard some noise outside the door. It must be Li Xin coming back.

Rongyue finished the work in her hands, opened the door, and saw that Li Xin's door was not closed.

"Li Xin?" Rongyue asked softly. The house was quiet and there was no sign of Li Xin.

Rongyue walked towards Li Xin's bedroom. When passing by the guest room, she found someone inside. The door of the guest room was not closed, and the situation inside was clearly visible.

Rongyue saw Xia Xiluo sitting on the bed, leaning against the headboard, holding someone in his arms. The person in his arms seemed to be asleep, with his face buried in Xia Xiluo's neck. Was it Li Xin?

Rongyue quickly avoided his gaze, saying, "Don't look at anything inappropriate!" Rongyue was about to leave.

“…Don’t go…”

Hearing this familiar voice, Rongyue stopped...

Xia Xiluo pressed Mo Chen's head and trapped the two words "Rong Yue..." that Mo Chen murmured around her neck.

Xia Xiluo stroked Mo Chen's face and said, "I won't leave. I will stay with you..."

Xia Xiluo's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to cover Mo Chen's whispers, so that people outside the house could hear it clearly.

When Mo Chen's assistant came back with the medicine, he saw Rongyue standing there in a daze.

"Ms. Rongyue...why are you standing here?"

Rongyue came back to her senses and looked at the medicine in Assistant Mo Chen's hand.

"Rongyue, you're here?" Xia Xiluo's voice appeared behind Rongyue.

Rongyue turned around and glanced at Mo Chen who was lying on the bed in the room.

"I thought it was Li Xin who came back."

Mo Chen's assistant looked at Rongyue's expression, then thought about what had just happened. With his keen insight, he felt that there might have been a misunderstanding.

"Boss Gong has been feeling unwell these past few days. He had a particularly high fever today and was almost delirious. So he came back first. Boss Li is still in the company."

Rongyue listened to what Mo Chen's assistant said. It would be a lie to say that she was not worried about Mo Chen. She looked at Mo Chen in the room again.

"Mo Chen's health has not been good in recent years, but don't worry too much. I have gained experience from taking care of him." Xia Xiluo looked at Rongyue.

Rongyue raised her foot and wanted to look at Mo Chen, but was stopped by Xia Xiluo.

Xia Xiluo smiled and said, "Rongyue, I don't know why Mo Chen has a fever. What if it's a bad cold and it's transmitted to you? You still have to take care of two children. Mo Chen has been wearing a mask when he sends the children to school in the morning these days. He doesn't dare to have much contact with them."

"I'll just look at him. I won't be infected." Rongyue avoided Xia Xiluo and entered the room. She walked to Mo Chen and looked at the sleeping Mo Chen. Her breathing was much heavier than usual.

Rongyue reached out and touched Mo Chen's forehead; it was hot.

"You have such a high fever, why don't you go to the hospital?" Rongyue looked back at the two people outside the room.

"Mr. Gong doesn't want to go! He insists on coming back." Assistant Mo Chen explained helplessly.

"He's already confused due to fever, and you still listen to him?!" Rongyue was a little angry.

Mo Chen's assistant didn't know how to answer Rongyue.

"Rongyue, this is not Assistant Dong's fault. You know how stubborn Mo Chen is."

Xia Xiluo walked to Rongyue and patted her on the shoulder. "I don't think it's a big problem. I will take good care of him. If there is any problem, I will take him to the hospital. It's getting late. You should go pick up the children."

"Cough cough cough... cough cough..." Mo Chen started coughing.

Xia Xiluo hurried to the bedside and said, "Mo Chen, would you like some water?"

Rongyue looked at Mo Chen, her gaze paused for a moment on Xia Xiluo's hand holding Mo Chen's. She walked out of the room and returned home.

Assistant Dong watched Rongyue leave and sighed.

"Mr. Xia, let me take care of Mr. Gong. It's getting late, you should go back and rest." Assistant Dong walked into the room and looked at Xia Xiluo.

"It's okay, I just want to stay with him for a while longer." Xia Xiluo was speaking from the heart. Only when Mo Chen was sick did she feel that he belonged only to her.

Assistant Dong frowned. Nangong Rongyue left in anger, and Xia Xiluo looked like she would never leave him. This really stumped him. He didn't dare to mess with these two women! He decided to prepare some medicine and give it to Mo Chen as soon as possible. As long as Mo Chen woke up, everything would be easy!

Rongyue took care of the children as usual. After the children fell asleep, she leaned against the head of the bed and read the English book that Teacher Xu gave her.

In the past, just looking at 10 words would have the effect of a sleeping pill, but today, I couldn’t fall asleep no matter how much I looked at them.

Rongyue looked at the sleeping children. She reached out and touched Xiaoyu. This child looked most like Mo Chen in her eyes and eyebrows. Grandpa even took out Mo Chen's childhood photos for comparison. The father and daughter looked exactly the same since they were babies.

Rongyue looked at the time. It was already midnight. She took out her cell phone and sent a message to Li Xin.

Rongyue: [How is Mo Chen? ]

Li Xin: [I took some medicine and my fever went down. I slept well. Don't worry. Go to bed early.]

Rongyue felt relieved after seeing Li Xin's reply. She set the alarm, put down her phone, picked up the English book and continued to hypnotize herself.

Xia Xiluo returned home and looked at the overwhelming reports on the computer, all about Nangong Rongyue.

The more she looked at it, the more it irritated her eyes and hurt her heart. Xia Xiluo thought that since Nangong Rongyue wanted to be a good person, she should be a good person to the end!

She opened her phone and sent a message: [Give that person the address of Nangong Rongyue's company and home.]

… …

The next morning, Rongyue got up early and packed herself and the children.

Just as I was about to go out, I heard a noise at the door and the children ran out first.

"father!"

Rongyue listened to the children's cries. She walked out of the room and saw Mo Chen standing at the door, wearing a mask and holding two children.

"Are you okay?" Rongyue looked at Mo Chen.

"Well, it's almost there."

Mo Chen's voice was very low, and was mostly blocked by the mask, so it sounded very weak to Rongyue's ears.

Rongyue walked up to Mo Chen, raised her hand and touched Mo Chen's forehead with the back of her hand. It was clearly still burning!

"Go and rest. I'll take them there."

“…I…cough cough…I can…” Mo Chen held back his cough.

"Daddy's face is so hot..." Xiaoyu held Mo Chen's face, and her little face was wrinkled.

Rongyue took Xiaoyu and held her in her arms. "Well, Daddy is sick with a fever. Let him have a good rest. Mommy will take you there."

Xiaoyu hugged Rongyue obediently and no longer pestered Mo Chen.

"Dad, you should take a rest. We are leaving with Mom." Xiaochu also got down and held Rongyue.

"Go and have a rest. Get well soon and then accompany them." Rongyue looked at Mo Chen.

"Mo Chen! Why are you up!" Xia Xiluo got off the elevator and walked to Mo Chen and Rong Yue.

"Is this Xiaochu and Xiaoyu?" Xia Xiluo looked at the two children with a smile.

"Say hello to auntie." Rongyue looked at the two children.

The two children called out politely.

"The car is waiting for you downstairs. Will you come back later?" Mo Chen looked at Rongyue.

Rongyue looked at Mo Chen and Xia Xiluo and said, "I'll go directly to the studio."

Mo Chen felt a little disappointed, lowered his eyes and nodded.

After saying that, Rongyue took the children away.

Mo Chen kept looking at Rongyue and the children until they disappeared before he turned around and walked back to Li Xin's house.

"Why are you trying to be so strong even though you are so sick? Can't you just have a good rest?" Xia Xiluo walked into Li Xin's house.

Li Xin put the porridge on the dining table and looked at Mo Chen. "It's a waste for you to live with me when you look so pitiful! You should live with Rongyue and let Rongyue take care of you! What a good opportunity."

Mo Chen was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, feeling uncomfortable. "Rongyue is not in good health. I'm worried that she... cough cough... will get sick."

Xia Xiluo sat on the sofa and looked at Mo Chen. Even now, he was still thinking about Nangong Rongyue.

"The most important thing is that the children don't get sick. Every time the children get sick, Rongyue suffers the most. I remember the last time both children had a fever, they cried and wanted Rongyue to hold them while they slept. As soon as I put them down, they woke up and cried for Rongyue to hold them. You also know how much Rongyue loves these two children. Just to let them sleep well, she held them in her arms for two days and one night. We were so anxious but couldn't help. In the end, the children got better, but she was exhausted and sick for several days before she recovered."

"So, you really should take good care of yourself if you are sick and don't always contact Xiaoyu and Xiaochu." Li Xin looked at Mo Chen.

Mo Chen nodded.

"Go drink the porridge! And then take the medicine!"

"Don't eat."

"Rongyue specially brought it here this morning! If you don't eat it, I will!" Li Xin looked at Mo Chen.

Mo Chen got up, walked to the dining table, picked up the porridge and drank it, then took the medicine and went back to his room to sleep.

Li Xin couldn't help but smile when he saw Mo Chen's obedient appearance.

But in Xia Xiluo's eyes, all of this turned into bitterness that washed over her heart again and again.
