Su He, who had already felt a headache because of what Zhao Youlin had said to her, felt even uncomfortable because of the strange dream. When Su He walked downstairs, her face was really pale.

Su Hes condition was stabilized at the hospital, but Su Jifeng was a little concerned. He simply moved his work back home these days, so that he could take care of Su He while handling his work at the same time.

When Su He came down, Su Jifeng was sitting in the hall drinking coffee. When he heard the footsteps, he looked up and saw his sisters pale face. His eyebrows furrowed slightly. He got up and greeted her.

Whats wrong? You look terrible. Would you like me to call Dr. Zhao over to check on you?

Su He shook her head and slowly walked to the opposite side of his brother. She said in a low voice, Im fine. Dont worry, Jifeng. I just had a nightmare and now my head hurts a little.

You had a nightmare? Su Jifeng was a little stunned. Then, he heaved a sigh and walked behind Su He. He put his hand on her temple and gently ma.s.saged it for her.

Brother. Su He was startled by her brothers sudden movement. She wanted to turn her head, but Su Jifeng stopped her.

Dont move. Let me ma.s.sage it a little for you.

Su Hes struggling movements stopped after hearing what her brother said, allowing Su Jifeng to ma.s.sage her head.

Su He felt the strength coming from her temples. It was so comfortable that she narrowed her eyes.

Su Jifeng looked at her reaction and lamented, I remember there was a period when you used to have nightmares when you were little.

It was after Su He was almost abducted. Although she was still little and she did not remember much, she could keenly feel the danger around her.

For a long time after the incident, Su He had been having nightmares, causing several elders in the family to worry immensely about that. They were worried that Su He would be traumatized for life because of the incident.

The good thing was that Su He had gotten a lot better after that. And her memory of that incident seemed to be fading, which was a relief to the family.

Su He was a little stunned. She tried to turn her head to look at Su Jifeng, but his hands were still on her head, so she could not move.

It was as if Su Jifeng did not notice what Su He was trying to do. He continued, Back then, you always ran to my room when you woke up from your nightmare. You would beg me to tell you stories and sleep with me, do you still remember that?

Hearing that her brother was talking about the embarra.s.sing things she did when she was little, an awkward expression could be seen on Su Hes face. She protested in a low voice, Jifeng, it happened so long ago. Dont bring it up.

Su Jifeng smiled and withdrew his hand. He looked at his sister in front of him and lamented, You were so tiny at that time. Youve grown so big now, and you are having a baby.

Su He was a little stunned. When she turned around, she saw an expression of reminiscence on her brothers face. She felt like crying. She hugged Su Jifengs waist and choked up. Jifeng, Im sorry. I have let you down.

Su Jifeng looked at his sister, who he had doted on since she was little. He still could not bring himself to reproach her. Youre sorry about what? Did you do something that would let me down?

Jifeng, I Su He subconsciously looked down at her bulging belly, which could no longer be hidden. She bit her lip, not knowing what to say.

Su Jifeng reached out and patted Su Hes head like he always did. He sighed and said, You have grown up now and found someone you like. I wont say anything about that, because I always know that you would leave our parents and my side. You will start your own family eventually, so no matter how reluctant we are, we always know that one day, you will find someone you like, you will get married and have children.

Jifeng

But what really disappointed me is you have found someone you like and are even having a baby with him, yet you didnt tell me. You even hurt yourself for him. Do you know how disappointed I felt when I found out that you didnt want to tell me that youre pregnant? Do you know how much it aches my heart when I found out that you got pregnant because of the man who broke your heart?

The tears in Su Hes eyes nearly rolled down uncontrollably because of Su Jifengs words. At this moment, Su He finally understood the meaning of those words Zhao Youlin said to her before. She had thought that she had done the right thing to conceal her pregnancy from everyone as it would protect their feelings, though she did not understand that it had actually hurt those who cared for her more.

I am sorry, Jifeng. I am sorry. I didnt mean to keep it from you. I was just afraid. I was afraid that you wouldnt accept my baby. I was afraid that I would let you down.

Looking at his sister panicking, Su Jifeng felt awful as well. In your eyes, am I really such a vain and materialistic person who only cares about those useless vanity t.i.tles? Xiao Qi, we are family, the closest people in this world. We have the same blood running through our veins. No one can have what we have. If you cant even trust us and rely on us, who else can you trust?

Jifeng, I am sorry. Thats not what I meant, I just, I just

Before Su He could finish her explanation, Su Jifeng had already interrupted her first. If you didnt mean that, why didnt you tell us these things? Or are you saying that the reason you are not willing to tell me about this matter is to protect that man? You are afraid that I will be so angry that I would go and confront him? Xiao Qi, you still care about him, dont you?

Upon hearing that, Su He stiffened instantly. Her lips moved, and she wanted to argue, though when she looked into her brothers eyes that saw through everything, she could not say anything.

Could it be that she really still cared about that man? Did she subconsciously keep her pregnancy hidden because she wanted to protect him?

Even Su He herself had not figured out what she really felt yet, but Su Jifeng had already had an answer in his heart. He reached out and patted Su Hes head again. Then, he said in a low voice, Think about it. One more thing, Dad, Mom and Grandpa may come back in a few days. Brace yourself.

Upon hearing the news that the elders were coming back, Su Hes expression changed slightly. A trace of nervousness surfaced in her eyes.

Seeming to see Su Hes concern, Su Jifeng hesitantly added, Dont worry. No matter what happens, you have me.

Okay.

Because of Su Hes current condition, she could not leave the Su Residence. She could only travel around her room, the courtyard and the lobby, which was incredibly simple.

After dinner, Su He read a book for a while. Then she went straight back to her room and got ready to take a shower.

The moment she opened the closet, she met a pair of eyes without warning. And the moment their eyes met, they were both stupefied!
