Upon arriving at the Lu family villa.

Lu Jinnan got out of the car first and led Han Guoguo inside.

Han Guoguo knew that Lu Jinnan had his own house, as did his brother and Ji Hancheng. Presumably, Su Yu should also have one. It's normal for children from families like theirs to have their own houses.

The fact that Su Xue lives in the Lu family villa instead of Lu Jinnan's house is what makes people think. In-laws are often seen as the natural enemies of daughters-in-law, and they rarely get along.

Since ancient times, it has been difficult for mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law to get along. Under the same roof, there will always be things they don't like to see.

If the parents-in-law didn't treat their daughter-in-law like their own daughter, and didn't like and love her, no daughter-in-law would prefer to live with her parents-in-law rather than live alone, that's what Han Guoguo thought.

Su Xue is a good example; she really enjoys living with her parents-in-law.

Su Yu followed at the back, entering the room at a leisurely pace. There were already three people watching over his niece upstairs, and with Dr. Han and Lu Jinnan, there were five people in total. It would be redundant for him to go up. He sat down on the sofa, where his father and father Lu were already sitting in front of him, calmly drinking tea.

He wanted to smoke, but as soon as he took out a cigarette, he seemed to remember something and put it back.

I glanced at the backs of the two people walking up the stairs. One was wearing pajamas and slippers, and the other was wearing a dark green dress. The hem of her dress fluttered naturally and gracefully as she took a step.

Lu Jinnan opened the door, and Su Xue smiled slightly when she saw Han Guoguo. Her face was full of apology. "Guoguo, you're here. I'm so sorry to pick you up so late at night."

Han Guoguo waved her hand. She was a very outgoing person, but not very good at socializing with elders. She simply greeted them politely, "Hello, uncles and aunts."

Both Su's mother and Lu's mother were approachable people, and they responded with smiles, "Hello, hello."

They consciously took a few steps back, their minds focused on Yueyue.

Han Guoguo put her bag aside, bent down to check on Xiaocaomei, lifted her clothes to look, and found that Xiaocaomei was already asleep, but her body was warm.

Han Guoguo asked a few questions. Su Xue and she remained calm. This kind of fever is very common. They also knew why Su Xue hadn't taken her daughter to the hospital, but the two mothers were just too anxious.

Su Xue had said that her daughter was fine when she had a fever, that it was normal, after all, she was a doctor and knew the general situation. But Su's mother said that different professions are like different worlds, and that Su was an obstetrician-gynecologist, not a pediatrician.

After much discussion, we had no choice but to bring Han Guoguo over.

Han Guoguo examined her and said, "Yueyue's condition is basically roseola infantum. She will have a fever for a few more days. After her fever subsides, tiny red rashes will appear on her back and chest. The rashes will disappear on their own in a few days, but the child will be a little uncomfortable for the next couple of days."

Su Xue had considered this as a possible reason when she saw her daughter's recurring fevers, but her current statement was not very credible, at least not to Su's mother.

Lu Jinnan felt sorry for his daughter, and his heart ached when he heard that it would take several more days. "Is there any other way?"

Han Guoguo shook her head. Lu Jinnan looked at his daughter lying on the bed with deep eyes, feeling extremely distressed. He really wished he could take her fever away from her.

Parents probably all have this thought: whenever their child is sick, they wish the illness were on them instead, so the child wouldn't have to suffer.

Now that Dr. Han Guoguo has spoken, the two mothers believe her, after all, she is a professional. But the thought of their child getting fevers, taking fever-reducing medicine when the fever goes down, and then having the fever come back again still breaks their hearts.

Yueyue sleeps with Lu's mother. At this moment, the two mothers made a unanimous decision. Lu's mother spoke first, "Xiaoxue, Yueyue will sleep with her mother tonight. You have to go to work tomorrow. Xiaonan and your father are still at home. Leaving a man at home will allow you to focus on your work. Your mother and I will stay with you tonight."

This statement actually meant that everything had already been arranged. Su Xue knew that her mothers meant well, so she nodded in agreement.

Han Guoguo took out fever-reducing medicine, a thermometer, and fever-reducing patches from her bag. "Keep these; I brought them with me."

Su Xue: "Why do you keep so many children's medicines at home? They're so comprehensive!"

"Hey, you and Yao Yao both have kids, so I just prepared some in case we needed them."

This was the first time Su Xue truly saw Han Guoguo's thoughtfulness and concern for her friends. She had brought children's medicine home simply because they had children, regardless of whether they would actually use it.

Su Xue smiled, took out her phone and glanced at the time. It was already past midnight. "Moms, I'll take Guoguo downstairs now."

Su's mother expressed her gratitude again, "Thank you, Dr. Han, for disturbing your rest so late."

"It's alright, Auntie. Aside from being a doctor, I'm also Xiaoxue's friend."

Mother Su instructed, "Xue'er, Xiao Nan will need to take care of you later. Have your brother take Dr. Han back, and be careful on the way."

Su Xue wanted to say that Lu Jinnan didn't need to take care of her, but when she noticed her mother blinking repeatedly as if she understood what she meant, she suddenly realized that the gossipy Su Xue could not possibly miss this point. "Oh, okay, Guoguo, I'll have my brother take you home. My legs have been sore at night lately, and Xiaonan has been massaging them for me every night."

After saying that, she bumped into Lu Jinnan, who was standing next to her. Lu Jinnan, who had come to his senses, looked away from his daughter and agreed, "Yes, yes, let Su Yu take you. He'll make sure you get home safely."

Han Guoguo was packing her bag and didn't notice the subtle exchange between the mother and daughter. "I'm fine with anything. You're the Empress now, so you get to decide."

"I love you, I'll see you down."

"You should stay here," Han Guoguo refused.

"Grandma, you stay here. I'll take some wild fruit downstairs and wait for me to come back."

Su Xue: You're just going downstairs, it'll only take a few minutes.

Su Yu remained seated on the sofa. Hearing the commotion upstairs, he glanced up at the stairs and saw Lu Jinnan and Han Guoguo coming down side by side, chatting and laughing. "I owe you a favor. Do you want the consultation fee?"

"Come on, listen to how sincere you are in what you're saying!"

"Fine, I don't really want to give it to you either. Your brother has already swindled enough money from me."

Su Yu did not stand up; after watching for a while, he looked away.

"Big brother, Mom asked you to take the wild fruit back. I also need to give Xiaoxue a massage later." Lu Jinnan repeated Su's mother's instructions.

The meaning behind her words was concise and clear; she left all her excuses at the end, effectively silencing any attempts by Su Yu to refuse.

Upon hearing this, Su Yu seemed to understand the underlying meaning. Remembering Han Yue's words, he wanted to politely refuse, but then his father's voice came from not far away, "Drive slowly on the road. Your mother and I will be staying here tonight. Are you going home or staying here later?"

Seeing that Yueyue was alright, Mr. Lu and Mr. Su went upstairs together. Lu Jinnan had already arranged rooms for the two elders at the Lu family home.

It wouldn't be right to refuse now, and Miss Han would be embarrassed. Su Yu replied, "Okay, I'm going home."

"Let's go, Miss Han." After saying that, he strode out, and Han Guoguo followed him eagerly.

As she approached the car door, she hesitated, unsure whether to open the back door or the passenger door. After a moment's hesitation, Su Yu's gentle voice came through the door, "If you're used to sitting in the passenger seat, then sit in the front. I don't mind."

"It's okay, I'll sit in the back." Han Guoguo waved her hand, preparing to open the back door.

Su Yu didn't object, after all, Han Yue's words flashed through his mind in an instant.

The car drove smoothly toward the Han family home. The car was unusually quiet, so quiet that Han Guoguo was almost asleep. She had to find a topic to talk about to wake her up. It was the middle of the night, and it was really easy to fall asleep.

"Xiaoxue is quite happy to have married Lu Jinnan. She also has a good relationship with her parents-in-law. This is the kind of love that people envy."

Han Guoguo finally found a topic to talk about.

Su Yu noticed her discomfort. "Xiaoxue is lively and easy to get along with. She doesn't hold grudges either. She's similar to you in personality."

"You know what kind of personality I have. We haven't met more than a few times, have we?"

Sitting in the back, Han Guoguo stared at the back of his head and asked.

Su Yu: I haven't seen you many times. Your WeChat Moments are like a fish-showing-off post; you upload everything that's making you happy. It's hard not to want to know.

"Feeling." I finally found a more suitable word.

"Your feeling is right. Xiaoxue and I have similar personalities and similar interests. Even Yaoyao said that we are kindred spirits... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring that up."

Han Guoguo misspoke during the chat.

"It's okay, she's already married, she'll have to let it go eventually."

Afterwards, in order to change the subject, Han Guoguo talked about many things that happened in Blue City before, as well as many interesting things, and finally managed to get away from her slip of the tongue. Su Yu also laughed from time to time.

Han Guoguo is very talkative with people of her own generation, but she is still awkward with elders and doesn't know how to get along with them.

The car stopped at the Han family's house. Han Guoguo opened the back door and waved to Su Yu, "Thank you for your help."

The lights in the villa's living room were on full blast, as bright as day. Soon, a person walked out of there. Wasn't that Han Yue?

Su Yu was sitting in the driver's seat and didn't even have time to speak when Han Yue came out. He smiled and realized that Su Yu was really worried about him and had been waiting for his sister to come home in the living room since the early hours of the morning.

Han Yue walked over lazily, put his arm around his sister's shoulder, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, President Su."

"I'm the only one at home who's not busy, so I'll have to be used eventually. Goodbye." This was said to both of them.

Han Guoguo politely reminded him, "Be careful."

"Thanks."

After speaking, Su Yu nodded to Han Yue as a greeting.

Han Guoguo was led into the villa by Han Yue, who had his arm around her shoulder. "Why wasn't Lu Jinnan taking you home?"

"I'm safely home now, so it doesn't matter who takes me. I'm not an empress dowager who can order soldiers and generals to take me."

"Oh dear, why do you always associate me with Su Yu? He just casually gave me a ride, and I just sat down anywhere. We're both pretty free people. Lu Jinnan is going to massage Xiaoxue's feet. Do you know about prenatal massages for pregnant women? Never mind, you probably don't know. I'm going to sleep now. It's almost 2 a.m., and I have to go to work tomorrow."

"I'm just a lowly wage earner. Don't pity me or envy me. Goodbye and goodnight."

Han Yue was so angry his forehead hurt. He was sitting on the sofa late at night waiting for this troublemaker to come home. He was really afraid that his sister would fall for Su Yu, this refined guy. "Are you crazy?"

Han Guoguo turned around and stuck out her tongue at Han Yue playfully. Then, while walking up the stairs, she texted Su Xue: I'm home, sister.

Su Xue asked: "Can I go to sleep now? By the way, I recommended my brother's contact information to you last time. Did he add you?"

Han Guoguo lowered her head and replied: Added.

Su Xue paused for a moment before replying: Okay, thank you for your hard work, darling. Go to sleep early, see you tomorrow.
