Chapter 29 - Be a good wife to the Xu Family

"However, you can't go out today. Take care of your body in the Xu Family for these few days. After the child is safe and sound, you can do whatever you want."

Lin Xia Hua turned his head, and saw himself reflected in the small mirror at the side. He was momentarily at a loss for words, but the paleness of his face and the dimness of his eyes were indeed frightening.

Lin Xia Hua did not utter a word. She carefully scooped up the porridge with her spoon and took small sips. Her mood had finally gradually recovered.

After two days of hunger strikes, her stomach had been affected greatly, shrunk quite a bit, and now she couldn't eat anymore. After drinking half a bowl of porridge she just couldn't eat anymore, and under the threat of Xu Zimo, she vaguely swallowed some supplementary dishes and was forced to rest on her bed.

She lay obediently on the bed, still uneasy. After witnessing Xu Zimo unlock the window, he finally felt more at ease. He gradually lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Zhimo turned his head to the side and saw that she was sleeping soundly. He pursed his lips, but the emotions in his heart gradually became unusual.

If he had come even later, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Anyway, he couldn't let anything happen to her now.

Xu Yimo stood up and headed for the window ledge in frustration. His heart was filled with an indescribable emotion.

The next day, Lin Xia Hua was pushed to the private hospital by Xu Yi Mo. Under a detailed examination, the doctor instructed her to adjust the diet several times so that she wouldn't be agitated. This kind of thing couldn't happen a second time.

Lin Xiashua was forced to stay in the Xu Family for two days to recuperate and balance her appetite. Only when her complexion had slightly improved did she bring her bag and design plan on the third day, directly rushing over to the wedding shop.

For the past two days, she hadn't been able to ask for leave before she disappeared. When she reappeared, she was stunned for a long time before her eyes reddened and she came to pat Ye Ci.

"Where have you been? I didn't even answer your call, and you just told me to wait for you in the afternoon, so I waited a few days for you! "

Lin Xia Hua smiled and patted Lian Ran's shoulder. With a comforting tone, she slowly said: "That day, there was an accident. I didn't have enough time to tell you before I ended my communication. Everything is fine now."

She wanted to ask further, but she changed the topic after weighing the pros and cons on her face.

"What did you want to talk to me about that day?"

"I designed a set of designs with my signature on it." Lin Xia Hua took out a notebook from her bag, took out the design, and laid it out on the table. She had a satisfied look in her eyes as she slowly said, "Xiao Ran, I'm not sure where to place these items. I would like to ask for your help."

"I'm very much involved in this area." As he spoke, he took over the design in his hands. With a trace of warmth in his eyes, he opened his mouth and said, "Your design is really, really valuable. It would be a pity if you just casually throw it away."

Lin Xia Hua breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes a little more relaxed: "Thank you."

"It's fine, let's not talk about thanks." He waved his hand and looked at the blueprint, sighing, "I knew it, you must have this talent."

This time, it really hit the mark.

The corners of Lin Xia Hua's lips curled up slightly in a smile, pulling the conversation together to a normal one. In the afternoon, she decided to stay at the wedding shop and help out. Only after the door was closed did she slowly return to the Xu Family.

The design was finally found. Lin Xiashua's mood became a lot higher, and his steps became a lot lighter as he went back home.

Arriving at the Xu Family residence, she pushed open the door. Just as she entered the hall, she heard a low voice sounding next to her.

"Where did you go?"

She was very familiar with this voice. After living together for three years, she was familiar with almost every single emotion in this voice. Right now, this voice wasn't very good.

Lin Xia Hua's expression was indifferent, but she still remembered that he had placed her under house arrest. With a cold tone, she asked, "What does it have to do with you?"

Xu Zimo pondered these words, and suddenly smiled. With danger faintly in his eyes, he slowly spoke: "It has nothing to do with me? Lin Xia Hua, have you forgotten your identity? "

"I didn't do anything out of line."

"Di —"

The phone's ringtone interrupted her words. Lin Xia Hua paused for a moment and subconsciously took out his phone. His gaze swept across the screen and two big words flashed on it.

"Lian Ran!"

Lin Xia Hua's heart tightened as an ominous premonition gradually spread. She walked a few steps away before turning her body to pick up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Xia Hua!" Something has happened! "

Lian Ran's tone was a little panicked, but she forced herself to calm down.

Lin Xia Hua held her breath. She pursed her lips and maintained her indifference as she asked, "What's wrong?"

"I've submitted a few reliable drafts, but they were all rejected. The reason for that is because your draft design has been sealed and you are not allowed to submit it."

Lin Xia Hua was surprised for a moment. Her face turned pale as she turned her head to look at Xu Yi Mo. She seemed to have guessed something.

Xu Yimo's expression was indifferent, his expression did not change, and his gaze towards her was filled with ridicule.

"Lin Xiuhua, as long as you do a good job with your status as the wife of the Xu family, it'll be enough."

It really was him.

Lin Xia Hua was already certain of this as she could not help but laugh in anger, "Xu Zimo, the things I've done will not affect the Xu Family's reputation. You clearly promised me that you would not interfere?"

"My condition for not interfering is that there won't be any effect. Lin Xia Hua, maintain your position. After a few months, you won't be able to stay even if you want to." Xu Yimo's voice was cold and full of warning.

Lin Xia Hua glanced at him, his smile somewhat sorrowful.

She should have known long ago that Xu Zimo never planned on letting her go.

She had naively believed him when he had compromised with her to set her free.

From the beginning, Xu Yimo had never been nice to her.

"I know." Her voice was cold and distant. There was indifference and unfamiliarity in her eyes. She slightly nodded, and the distance between them widened.

Xu Yimo frowned slightly. A bit of displeasure rose up from the bottom of his heart. Just as he was about to open his mouth and stop, his words were stuck in his throat.

What would he do if he told her to stop?

It was rare for him to be confused for a moment, so he was momentarily at a loss for words. He missed this moment, and Lin Xia Hua's figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Lin Xia Hua went back to her room, slid down the door and sat on the floor, and held her phone tightly.

A message had been sent just now, probably encouraging her. She wasn't in the mood to look at it.

He thought that he would be able to create a path for himself with the help of the painting, but from the looks of it, he had been blocked off from taking even two steps forward.

Lin Xia Hua grasped her hands tightly as unwillingness flashed across her eyes. Xu Yimo's indifferent voice echoed in her head.

'As long as you do a good job with your status as the wife of the Xu Family, it'll be sufficient.

Lin Xia Hua tightly pursed her lips, took a deep breath and rummaged through her bag. Finally, she found a business card. The familiar large character on the card, 'McLean', caught everyone's attention.

Lin Xia Hua's eyes flashed with a desperate determination. He found the phone number and dialed it.

"Hello?"
