Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Little Aunt, what’s wrong?” Shen Lu was shocked by Emily’s appearance. He hurriedly got down from the e-sports chair and looked at Emily with a worried face. Seeing that Emily was crying so sadly, he also started to cry.

“Aunt is fine. Xiao Lu, don’t cry.” Only then did Emily realize that she was not the only one in the room. There was also Shen Lu. She hurriedly adjusted her state of mind, hugged Shen Lu in her arms, and comforted Shen Lu’s emotions.

“Little Aunt… Little Aunt, don’t cry. Xiao Lu will go to sleep obediently.” Shen Lu thought that it was because he had never gone to sleep, so Emily cried sadly. He hurriedly promised her.

Emily felt a little heartache as she carried Shen Lu and placed him on the bed. “Okay, our Xiao Lu is the most obedient.”

“Little Aunt, I want to sleep with you. Mom isn’t here, so I’m scared alone.” Shen Lu stopped crying and reached out to grab Emily’s thumb tightly. He was unwilling to let go.

“Okay, I’ll sleep with you today. But you have to be obedient. Don’t kick the blanket.”

The phone next to Emily rang. It was a call from Shen Yu. Emily hesitated for a moment and picked up the phone. “Hello?”

“Emi, I was taking a shower just now. What’s the matter?” Shen Yu’s voice came from the other end of the phone. Hearing the word ‘shower’, Emily’s eyes couldn’t help but redden.

“It’s nothing. I know you’re taking a shower. I just wanted to ask if you’re here. You’re fine now.”

Emily held back her tears. She did not want her voice to sound out of place.

However, Shen Yu, who knew Emily very well, could tell that there was something wrong with Emily. On the other end of the phone, Shen Yu started to panic.

“Emi, what’s wrong? Are you worried because Grandma fainted today? I’ll be back soon. Don’t worry, the matter will be resolved soon.”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first. Shen Lu is beside me. I’m afraid I’ll wake him up.” Emily desperately wanted to hang up the phone. Even if she heard Shen Yu’s voice now, she would feel sad.

“Shen Lu? Is he Big Brother’s child?” Shen Yu did not want to hang up the phone so soon. He always felt that Emily had been deliberately distancing herself from him for the past few days.

“Brother, I’m really tired. I want to rest. You should be tired after just getting off the plane. I’ll hang up first. Goodbye.”

Emily did not wait for Shen Yu to speak and directly hung up the phone. She was afraid that Shen Yu would call again, so she simply turned the phone on to ‘do not disturb’ mode.

“Little Aunt, is the person on the phone with you Uncle Shen Yu?” Shen Lu looked at Emily with his eyes wide open. He was very curious about Shen Yu on the other end of the phone. He was his biological uncle.

“Yes, he will be back in a few days. Shen Lu, do you want to see him?” Emily did not deny it. She thought that Shen Lu had not seen Shen Yu yet. When Shen Yu saw Shen Lu, he would definitely like him.

Thinking of this, Emily felt a sharp pain in her heart. It seemed that she was really hopeless.

“No, I don’t want to see Fifth Uncle. Little Aunt, was it because of Fifth Uncle that you were sad just now? I’ve decided. From today onwards, I’m going to hate Fifth Uncle. I don’t want Little Aunt to be sad,” Shen Lu said with righteous indignation.

Emily was instead amused by Shen Lu’s look. She tucked the blanket in for Shen Lu, indicating that it was time for him to have a good rest.

On the other side, after Emily hung up the phone, a trace of hatred flashed across Shen Yu’s eyes. He looked at the woman standing at the side and said, “Go to the personnel office and resign.”

“Boss, I didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t know that this phone call was so important to you.”

Her face was filled with panic. In the past, when she helped Shen Yu block those peach blossoms, Shen Yu did not say anything. This time, he actually wanted to fire her. She did not understand what she had done wrong.

“I will never repeat what I have said. Lisa, you have crossed the line. You know I have never liked strangers appearing in my home.”

Shen Yu sat on the sofa like a king. He looked coldly at the flustered Lisa in front of him. Other than indifference, there was no trace of pity.

Lisa was unwilling, but she understood Shen Yu’s temper. She could only obediently retreat from Shen Yu’s house. Shen Yu hurriedly called Emily, but the phone rang, but no one picked up. Shen Yu’s frown deepened, and he wanted to go back even more urgently.

For a few days, Emily did not contact Shen Yu again. Jiang Xin and Shen Xu had been taking care of Shen Zhe at the hospital, but today, they suddenly came back crying.

“Big Brother… The doctor said that Big Brother’s time limit is not very long. Tell our family… to be prepared.”

Shen Xu forced himself to finish his sentence. When he said this, the Shen family was completely dumbfounded. Shen Yan instantly fell onto the sofa, and Old Madam Shen could not breathe either. Emily quickly gave Old Madam Shen acupuncture.. Old Madam Shen finally recovered.
