Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man-Chapter 1366 - : Worry

Chapter 1366: Chapter 1366: Worry

Su Wen, sensitive due to her pregnancy, discovered someone dared to deceive her. She extended her long leg under the table and kicked that person.

Zhou Hengyang, despite being kicked, kept his composure and instead reached out with his left hand, gently holding his wife’s hand in his palm.

The man’s warm and large hand tightly enveloped his wife’s small hand, tenderly stirring her heartstrings. Su Wen’s brief annoyance had completely vanished.

He was never one to nitpick.

“Be good, I’ll tell you in a bit,” Zhou Hengyang whispered beside his wife, his lips close to Su Wen’s earlobe.

The warm breath from the man when he spoke gently grazed Su Wen’s pale and delicate ears, tinting them with a blush.

Zhou Hengyang felt a surge of warmth. If it weren’t for the many people at the dining table, he would have embraced his wife and showered her with affection without hesitation.

Their gazes intertwined, gradually becoming inseparable.

“Ahem, ahem, ahem…” Su Qing coughed awkwardly and abruptly stood up. “I’m full, I’ll go change my clothes and get ready to go out.”

Su Qing and Su Xue also promptly got up, and everyone ran off in a flash.

The most oblivious was Su Jun, Fifth Sister. She had been so focused on eating that she hadn’t noticed the subtle movements at the table.

After everyone had left, she looked around blankly, and finally, reluctantly, placed her chopsticks down, “I’m also full, I’m going to my room to read.”

Before leaving, she didn’t forget to grab another bun.

Once everyone was gone, Su Wen directly asked, “So what happened?”

“Yes, Hengguang is sick,” Dong Yang put down his chopsticks, stretched out a finger, helplessly rubbing his temples, and resting his hand on his forehead.

Although Zhou Hengyang wouldn’t admit it, deep down, she was really worried; she hadn’t expected her brother to take things so seriously, to push himself to this extent.

If she was initially watching the situation with some schadenfreude, now it was completely replaced by concern.

He stayed up all last night because he was worried his brother might fall ill, but since his brother didn’t want to discuss it, he had no choice but to leave.

She knew his departure had unintentionally hurt their relationship as brothers, even though her brother never made a fuss about it.

Reflecting back, from childhood, he and his second brother had always been close due to being twins, sharing meals and living together, inadvertently neglecting the younger brother.

“Is it serious?” Su Wen’s expression also turned solemn. She remembered the last time he had a long stay in the hospital, which wasn’t so long ago. Last time it seemed grim, and she was still quite worried.

“Auntie said it’s just a mild fever this time, not too severe, but if it continues, the situation won’t be ideal,” Zhou Hengyang didn’t explain how exactly it wasn’t ideal but his tightly furrowed brows conveyed his worry.

“Where’s Zhou Hengguang? Right, didn’t he say he was coming to my place for the festival today? Will he still come?”

“Yes, he’ll come. Zou Yi returned from studying abroad, I wanted you to meet him.”

“You mean your family’s fourth son?” Su Wen remembered that the original story indeed mentioned that the Zhou family had an adopted son.

But this adopted son had always studied abroad, reputed to be quite remarkable, yet never appeared in the storyline since he hadn’t returned home—unexpectedly, he was now back earlier than planned.

After thinking briefly, Su Wen guessed that Zou Yi’s return must be related to Zhou Hengguang, considering the close relationship they had since childhood.

Rather than calling him an adopted son of the Zhou family, it might be better to say Zhou Hengguang picked him up from outside.

There must be some deviation from the original plot to provoke Zhou Hengguang’s decision to call him back.

Suddenly, an idea concerning Su Qing flashed into Su Wen’s mind.
