Lu Family Mansion, 12:15;
Xi Yuan stood motionless outside Rong Xinghe's bedroom, his back resting against a marble pillar, eyes locked onto the closed doors. Inside, Su Rogguang, Ching Tong, and Rong Xiao—the Medico Trio of the Superfamily—were tending to her. And though every instinct screamed at him to be by her side, he knew better. Right now, she needed treatment, not his presence.
He couldn't hover over her—not now.
Even the rest of the Superfamily understood that. The remaining five Tigers, along with her four sisters-in-law, paced the hallway in tense silence, their anxiety manifesting in restless footsteps and wringing hands.
However, Xi Yuan was relieved that Ruo Cy was asleep. Oblivion truly was bliss. In her pregnancy, she deserved peace—not the weight others carried. If she'd seen him carrying Rong Xinghe in blood-soaked clothes, that image would've haunted her.
The man exhaled, noticing the Superfamily fidget and shift about restlessly.
