Xu Huaiyu's hand holding the teapot was slightly stunned, he chuckled and looked at her:

"Sister-in-law, are you in love with someone else? Is Gu Huaijin not treating you well?"

Jin Mingzhu ignored his impropriety and continued:

"I can get you anything you want, as long as you can help me get a divorce."

After hearing this, the other party looked at her, as if thinking about what trap was hidden in her words.

"What, don't you dare?"

Seeing his hesitation, she added fuel to the fire.

"Sister-in-law, provocation doesn't work on me." The other party chuckled, with a little more seriousness in his expression.

"Why do you want to divorce Gu Huaijin?"

"I can't live like this anymore, I don't want to live like this anymore, do I need a reason?" Jin Mingzhu's tone was serious.

Xu Huaiyu suddenly remembered that Jin Mingzhu had an ex-boyfriend, and that he should be released from prison by then, so he understood a little.

"Sister-in-law, you can ask me to help you." He said softly.

"However, I have a condition..." The other party paused.

"What conditions?" She frowned slightly.

"I want you to be with me after you divorce Gu Huaijin." Xu Huaiyu's usually frivolous expression became more serious.

After hearing this, Jin Mingzhu stood up, picked up her bag and prepared to leave.

"Xu Huaiyu, you are just dreaming!"

The other person grabbed her bag and easily pulled her back to her place.

"Sister-in-law, I was just joking with you, is it that serious?"

Her eyes widened slightly and she said seriously:

"This joke is not funny. Will you help me? If not, I will go find someone else."

"Sister-in-law, you should know very well that no one can help you except me, or no one dares to fight against the Gu Group."

Xu Huaiyu stood up, held her hand, and signaled her to sit down beside him with his eyes.

The moment Jin Mingzhu walked out of the temple, her originally gloomy mood became brighter. With Xu Huaiyu's help, she would definitely be able to divorce Gu Huaijin smoothly.

Xu Huaiyu was behind her. Seeing her bright smile in the sunshine, his long-silent heart trembled unexpectedly.

After getting down the mountain, she immediately stopped a car and rushed back to Yujingyuan.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I noticed a large number of cars parked outside Yujingyuan. My heart suddenly tightened, thinking that Gu Huaijin must have returned early.

She hurriedly climbed over the wall from the backyard, praying that she could get back to the bedroom before Gu Huaijin.

When Wang Ma saw Gu Huaijin coming back early, she immediately went to meet him and reported:

"Master, the young mistress drank the medicine and went to sleep after you left."

He glanced at the clock in the living room and saw four hours had passed. He couldn't help but frown.

"Breakfast is useless too?"

Wang Ma reported truthfully:

"During lunch time, Xiaomei knocked on the door, but there was no answer. We thought the lady was sleeping soundly, so we didn't disturb her."

Gu Huaijin murmured "hmm" softly, his eyebrows twitching slightly, with an unknown sense of tension in his heart, and he quickly went upstairs.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door, shouting:

"Huanwen, I'm back."

"Nian Nian, Nian Nian?"

Seeing no one answering from inside the house, his heart sank. He grasped the door handle, which had been locked. He waved and ordered:

"Bring me the spare key."

The servant quickly brought the key. He strode in, looked around, and saw a figure on the bed, which made him feel relieved.

"Little lazy cat, why are you still sleeping? Get up and eat something."

Gu Huaijin sat down on the edge of the bed, his voice low and doting.

The person on the bed didn't move or respond at all.

Thinking of her discomfort, a trace of worry flashed across his expression. He raised his hand and touched the shoulder of the person on the bed, coaxing softly:

"Let's go to bed later and eat something first. Okay?"

There was no familiar touch on the palm of my hand, but instead a soft feeling. No, this was not a person.

Gu Huaijin suddenly pulled back the quilt, and a huge teddy bear stared at him innocently with a pair of big black eyes.

"Where is the lady?"

He stood up and knocked the teddy bear off the bed with one palm, then asked in a stern voice, looking at everyone.

Wang Ma anxiously glanced around a few times, but didn't see the ancestor. She was panicking:

"Master, we don't know. Madam never left."

"You can't even keep an eye on a person, what are you doing here?" Gu Huaijin's eyes were filled with anger. When he was about to order someone to look for her, he heard the sound of water in the bathroom.

His usually steady steps were a little unsteady at this moment. He grasped the bathroom door handle and opened it.

The bathtub was full of water, and Jin Mingzhu was lying naked in the bathtub, seemingly asleep.

Gu Huaijin stepped forward nervously, stepped into the bathtub and hugged her, calling her name.

Jin Mingzhu seemed to have just woken up, and threw herself into his arms without standing steadily, with a very obvious nasal tone:

"Gu Huaijin, why are you back?"

When she touched the water, she found it was a little cold. She must have been soaking in it for a long time, and the hot water had become cold. She couldn't help but say with concern:

"Wife, you are sick, why are you taking a bath?"

Jin Mingzhu was so cold that she shrank into his arms. If she hadn't been afraid of his suspicion, she wouldn't have tortured herself like this. She almost froze to death after taking a five-minute cold shower.

Somewhat reluctantly said:

"I feel sticky and hot all over, and a little uncomfortable."

Gu Huaijin held her in his arms, carried her out of the bathtub, leaned over to touch her forehead, and a hint of sandalwood scent inadvertently entered her nose.

There was only a slight pause, and a hint of doubt flashed through his mind.

Jin Mingzhu got into his arms and put her arms around his neck:

"Cold. Very cold."

Without caring about what he was thinking, he carried Jin Mingzhu to the bed and turned up the temperature in the room, and she felt better.

Jin Mingzhu sneezed twice in succession and thought she was really doomed. She was already showing signs of catching a cold.

Gu Huaijin patted her back to help her calm down, and fetched some water for her:

"Drink some hot water. I'll ask Aunt Wang to make ginger soup."

"Why did you come back suddenly?" She coughed a few more times.

Gu Huaijin covered her with the quilt, held the back of her cold hand, and said gently:

"After the signing ceremony there will be a celebration party. You are not feeling well, so I want to come back early to be with you."

Chen Chuan listened to Mr. Gu's calm and relaxed narration and couldn't help but cough a few times to hide the embarrassment on his face.

Mr. Gu, who had always been calm, urged the other party to sign in a hurry. After signing, he ignored the other party's handshake, walked off the stage and rushed home.

The foreign partners thought that something big had happened to the Gu family, but they didn't expect that it was just Mr. Gu's wife who was sick.

Gu Huaijin glared at him, and Chen Chuan tactfully retreated:

"I'll go see if the ginger soup is ready."

At this moment, a message suddenly came in on the phone in Jin Mingzhu's bag. She secretly hated herself for not muting her phone and saw that Gu Huaijin's attention was diverted.

She softened and threw herself into the other's arms, saying coquettishly:

"You are not allowed to go anywhere. Just stay with me."

The other person held her tightly, with a doting smile on his face:

"Okay, I'm not going anywhere. I'll just stay with you."

His eyes glanced at the bag she placed aside, and his expression was dark and deep.
