Chapter 175 Care

Chapter 175 Care
Shen Chaoxi had already laid down with her back to the bathroom. She had just washed herself briefly but still felt that it was not as refreshing as taking a shower. She was worried about the smell of sweat on her body, so she tried to sleep close to the edge of the bed.

The bathroom door opened, and the noise made Shen Chaoxi, who was resting with his eyes closed, turn his head instinctively.

The man's cold white upper body came into view.

Broad shoulders, a smoothly contoured waistline, enviable abdominal muscles and mermaid line, and a tight belly that is sexily half-hidden in the loose bath towel casually draped around the waist.

Even though they were at a distance, Shen Chaoxi could still sense the familiar fragrance, which came with a moist scent.

His heart was beating uncontrollably, Shen Chaoxi suppressed his embarrassment and turned his head away silently.

Then, the sound of the sliding door of the cloakroom opening and closing came from behind.

When he came out again, Shang Jianghan had changed into a set of silk two-piece pajamas, which were pure black with gray edges, and complemented the red with black edges that Shen Chaoxi had just changed into.

The mattress behind him sank slightly, and then a breeze penetrated his spine. Shen Chaoxi knew that Shang Jianghan had lifted the quilt and lay down in.

The smart lights in the room gradually dim and enter sleep mode when they turn into a dark yellow tone.

"Are you asleep?" A big hand passed through the waist, and the other hand held the slender neck.

Before Shen Chaoxi could react, he was pulled over and fell into a warm and strong embrace with a woody scent.

"Lying so far away? I'm not going to eat you, aren't you afraid of falling off the bed?"

Although the light was dim, when I lowered my gaze, I saw that the girl's thick eyelashes were dancing quickly, and she was clearly dozing off.

"I have a cold! You have important things to deal with recently, you can't get sick."

Taking over the Bai family is a top priority for Shang Jianghan both publicly and privately.

These days, in the Midnight Study, Shang Jianghan has put all his energy into this matter.

He is determined to acquire the Bai Group!
After a moment's silence, Shang Jianghan started talking about the situation at the Bai family without Shen Chaoxi asking any questions.

The room was silent and the man's voice was deep and powerful.

Shen Chaoxi pressed her face against the man's chest, feeling the ups and downs of his breathing and listening to the rhythmic beating of his heart.

"...The Bai family refused to give up and found an investor in Lincheng to try to save the business. They jumped around for two weeks and almost brought the other party down!"

Having said that, Shang Jianghan chuckled twice.

Shen Chaoxi didn't look at the expression on his face, but he knew that there was sarcasm in that smile.

"Because of this, Bai Qirui was dragged to the basement and beaten. He broke an arm and is still in the hospital. When the Ruan family saw this trend, they gave up their plans."

Shen Chaoxi raised his head and looked at the man's face in the dim light, but he only saw his distinct and strong jawline.

She noticed that Shang Jianghan called Bai Qirui by his full name.

He must hate the Bai family!
"Yesterday afternoon, the old man of the Bai family called me and agreed to the equity transfer. Bai's enterprise is willing to be acquired."

"Then why is Uncle Zhong involved?"

Zhong Hongguang's coming to Chongyuan Road couldn't be a coincidence with Shang Jianghan, nor was he here to pick up Yao Chun.

It happened too coincidentally.

The big hand slowly stroked the girl's back, without any emotion, just out of habit.

Shang Jianghan curled the corners of his mouth, his mood became much better, and he spoke more relaxedly.

"Uncle Zhong is half my father-in-law. Although he is a businessman, he also values ​​feelings. He intervened to help me. He couldn't let me get caught up in the whirlpool of public opinion and be criticized for being heartless!"

Shen Chaoxi suddenly realized.

The Bai family had been poorly managed for many years, and the Bai company was just a shell. Although Shang and his son had supported the family for many years, it was ultimately ruined by the Bai family's incompetent descendants.

Lianzhong wanted to acquire the company, but ended up being the passive target.

People will not remember your support over the years, but only look at the results. Since Lianzhong has the financial and material resources and was able to help the Bai family in the past, why should they step on them now?

The direction of public opinion often does not seek the truth, but only focuses on excitement and groundless speculation.

Publicizing Lianzhong's acquisition of the Bai family would only be misinterpreted by the outside world as Shang Jianghan's long-planned plan!
Even the previous support has become impure. "Do you care?" Shen Chaoxi asked in the dark night.

He rubbed his chin against the girl's forehead, feeling the slight moisture on her forehead. "I didn't care before. I'm a businessman, and profit is my ultimate goal."

He stopped talking halfway.

Shen Chaoxi had a hunch that the following words had something to do with her.

"So do you care now?" the girl asked softly, her voice trembling slightly.

The man let out a long breath, and the minty breath from his mouth sprayed into Shen Chaoxi's thick black hair.

The mottled light and shadows cast a halo on the girl's fair skin.

No matter how brilliant the light is, it pales in comparison to her.

"I care!" The man's voice was like a string.

You don't want your graduate school classmates to point fingers at you, saying that Shen Chaoxi's husband is a cold-blooded businessman. You don't want your child to be alienated by other children in kindergarten, and to be flattered on the surface and called an unfilial child behind his back.

The drug fermented in the blood, paralyzing the brain's thinking function. Shen Chaoxi moved his body, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep quickly.

The next day, Shang Jianghan and Zhong Hongguang left the villa early.

In the afternoon, Shen Chaoxi had a recurring fever and a dull pain in his stomach.

Menstruation comes unexpectedly.

Yao Chun looked at her daughter lying on the bed with her back hunched over and her face pale. She immediately packed her clothes and took Shen Chaoxi to the hospital.

Shen Chaoxi didn't want to worry his family, and he also felt that the recurrence of the disease would distract Shang Jianghan at this critical time, so he accepted Yao Chun's suggestion.

Lao Zhao drove and called Shang Jiangchuan on the way.

When we arrived at the hospital more than half an hour later, the ward and hospitalization procedures had already been arranged.

A minor cold and menstrual cramps actually took up public resources and I was admitted to the top-level VIP ward on the top floor of the Peking University affiliated hospital.

Shen Chaoxi felt embarrassed and kept his eyes closed and pretended to sleep during the infusion.

In the evening, Shang Jianghan hurried over after hearing the news.

At this time, Shen Chaoxi was sitting at the dining table, drinking lean meat porridge and checking the news on his mobile phone.

Seeing the anxious look on the man's face, Shen Chaoxi curved her eyebrows to hide her guilty conscience while showing that she was safe and sound.

"I'm really fine, it's just my mom who's making a fuss about it. But I had a severe stomachache at the time. Women, it only happens during those few days every month. It was fine before. I wasn't playing around. I went skiing with Zhongli for a long time. In the end, my body just wasn't doing well. I decided to find a trainer and start working out after these few days!"

Think of the causes, consequences, and subsequent remedial measures and state them all.

Shang Jianghan's complexion did look much better.

Shen Chaoxi drank a few more mouthfuls of porridge, feeling strange, and asked him.

"How did you know I was in the hospital?"

We agreed that no one in the family could tell anyone about it.

Yao Chun certainly wouldn’t say it.

Shang Jianghan took off his coat, untied his tie, and unbuttoned two buttons on his collar. After doing all this, he sat down next to Shen Chaoxi.

"Grandpa had just been sent here after suffering a cerebral hemorrhage, and he ran into my second brother, and that's what he said."

Shen Chaoxi was startled, and the spoon in his hand slid along the inner wall of the porcelain bowl into the red and white porridge.

"When did this happen?"

"At two o'clock this afternoon, I was discussing the acquisition case when I suddenly stood up and fell down."

Shang Jianghan obviously didn't want to say more. He reached out and rubbed his face, and didn't mention it again.
