The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 180

However, she couldn't even do this little thing well!

Huo Shaoting was of course annoyed in his heart. He didn't care about how much he had sacrificed for the Huo family, nor did he need them to repay him in any way.

The only person he cared about now was Rong Dai, his wife.

He only hoped that they could be a little nicer to Rong Dai, take better care of her.

But they couldn't even fulfill this little expectation.

Huo Shaoting was annoyed in his heart, but he was even more angry with himself.

After all, it was because he didn't protect her well enough.

Rong Dai looked into his eyes. She could feel his self-reproach and anger.

She smiled lightly and reached out to hold his warm palm, "I'm fine now, aren't I? I'll be more careful in the future."

"Mei Shu and Xiao Jie must also feel very worried and guilty. If you blame them again, they will feel even more remorseful."

She pulled him to sit down, placing the bowl on the cabinet.

"Shaoting, we are a family. No matter what, they and I will always love you the most."

"Neither of us wanted this to happen. They are also very uneasy that this occurred."

"I don't want these things to affect our family atmosphere. If there is anything, any problem, we can solve it together."

She comforted Huo Shaoting.

This man was extremely gentle and attentive to her. After spending these months with him, she could feel that he also yearned for warmth in his heart.

This man had been lonely for too long, so much so that he was used to ignoring the concern of his loved ones around him. He had already forgotten how to respond to their care.

She didn't want him to grow further apart from the Huo family because of her. This was not what she wanted to see.

"Besides, if you really blame Mei Shu and Xiao Jie for this, Granny and Mother would also feel sad. They really care about you. If our family becomes estranged, others might become smug about it."

She held his hand tightly. She could feel the softness in this man.

But she also hoped that he could show some of this softness to the Huo family as well. They were his closest kin.

She didn't want to change him, only to help him return to that warm family he once had.

She just wanted to tell him that he was never alone.

"I know it's very difficult for you to let go of some things now. But with me by your side, I'll accompany you to try, okay?"

Seeing her pale complexion, Huo Shaoting knew she had just gone through a great calamity, yet she still cared about his relationship with the Huo family.

A softness rose in his heart. He stroked her cheek, his voice gentle, "I will."

Rong Dai felt relieved when she heard his promise.

She knew he was a man of his word. Since he said this, he really wouldn't blame Little Aunt and Little Uncle anymore.

The real culprit in this matter wasn't them anyway. Shaoting was only venting his anxiety about her onto those around her.

If some ill-intentioned people found out about disharmony within the Huo family, who knows what they would do to celebrate it.

She wouldn't let this happen.

There was indeed little she could do for Shaoting, but there were some things that only she could help him with, so she wouldn't just sit by.

After drinking the hot porridge, she fell asleep.

Her physical exhaustion made her very drowsy. She slept until the afternoon. When she woke up, she felt groggy and her body felt a little hot.

The doctor happened to come check her condition. After examining her, it turned out she had a high fever.

Although the doctor had taken preventive measures when she was in the ER that night, with this kind of weather, it would be difficult not to catch a cold after being submerged in the water for so long.

On top of the cold, Rong Dai felt muddled these past few days, sometimes clear-headed, sometimes delirious.

But every time she opened her eyes, Huo Shaoting was by her side.

Rong Dai spent a full five days in the hospital.

On the sixth day, she was discharged. Qiao Wanzhou, Zhou Jing, and some other actors from the crew wanted to come visit her, but Huo Shaoting blocked them all.

Rong Dai was helpless. After the married couple returned to their apartment, Huo Shaoting didn't let her do anything and told her to just rest.

Rong Dai could only obediently listen. She took out her phone and sent messages in the temporary chat group the crew had set up, informing everyone that she was better and would return to the crew soon.

"Did this incident cause you any trouble? I'm really sorry about that night. It was just instinct to pull you down with me."

After replying to the others, she privately messaged Qiao Wanzhou.

That night by the pond, she had stumbled and nearly dragged Qiao Wanzhou down with her on pure instinct.

Although the pond wasn't deep, she still got into trouble. It wouldn't be surprising if some people deliberately guided public opinion to negatively impact Qiao Wanzhou.

Seeing Rong Dai's private message, Qiao Wanzhou knew that she had truly recovered.

Although they didn't speak face-to-face, she could feel Rong Dai's concern from her words.

She sent Rong Dai a smiling emoji, then quickly typed a reply: No trouble, but you gave me quite a fright!

Seeing her response, Rong Dai also felt much more at ease.

Before she could reply, Qiao Wanzhou sent another message: For the sake of my poor heart, you owe me a meal this time.

Rong Dai smiled. She replied: I'll treat you when we're back in Shenjing.

Qiao Wanzhou responded: Then it's settled. I won't disturb your rest. Rest well. I really look forward to the broadcast of this work.

Rong Dai sent a smiley back, then turned off her phone screen. She curled up on the sofa, gaze shifting to the kitchen.

The kitchen in this apartment was semi-open. So she could clearly see Huo Shaoting busy at work in the kitchen.

He wore Bluetooth earphones and was speaking into them. She knew he was taking care of her while working at the same time.

Although the Huo Corporation was powerful now, it wasn't so strong that Huo Shaoting could just sit back and relax.

Her heart felt warm but also a little guilty.

From the start of their relationship, Huo Shaoting's devotion had always exceeded hers.

He was clearly so busy, the company clearly couldn't do without him, yet he insisted on doing these things himself that could have easily been delegated.

She could feel this man's gentle thoughtfulness. She clenched her fists slightly, her eyes hardening with determination.
