BXBX NOVEL Chapter 452 - DIFFICULT TO SERVE
The staff from the villa were as efficient as ever, and they were anxious to serve. The place at Area 99 had become boring after the wedding. The people in the house thought that they would be moved to work in Azure Woods, but it never happened.
If it were not for Housekeeper Li\'s indomitable spirit, they would not be able to see the Young Master and the Young Mistress anymore. Their lives felt a little purposeless even though they were getting a good salary for doing almost nothing.
When Dr Shui showed up, the house was bustling with quiet movement. However, there was positive energy around the house. He wondered if a person needed medical help when there was an almost festive aura around the house.
\'Could Hu Lei have given birth prematurely?\' Dr Shui asked himself.
However, he dismissed the thought. No, people would be worried and tense about a premature baby. And Zhong Feng would probably not call him for the birth. He was not Hu Lei\'s antenatal doctor after all. He walked through the entrance area and headed to the living room.
"If someone was bleeding, they would have died before you got here." Hu Lei said mockingly as she stopped on the stairs.
Dr Shui looked at the woman in a long maroon dress with infuriation. She had become as annoying as Zhong Feng after their marriage. Furthermore, she was worse because her tongue was sharp. Zhong Feng just glared at him until he got frostbite.
"I am already stretched quite thin. You are lucky I heard the call at all." He complained. "I have already recommended my replacement. She is an exceptional physician, and she has been doing great work at the Zhong hospital."
Hu Lei pursed her lips. She did not dislike the recommended doctor after that one meeting. However, she was also a cautious person, perhaps naturally or because of her former trade. She trusted Dr Shui implicitly because she and Ah-Feng knew him.
She could not get used to the thought of calling an unknown person for sensitive medical emergencies. For example, if the new doctor was not discrete, they would not be able to explain the mysterious pregnant lady with sword cuts.
"It is not time to complain about such meaningless things. There is someone in need of urgent medical care. Come on up." Hu Lei turned on the stairs and started going up again.
Dr Shui was frustrated by her stubbornness. However, he was more impressed with her spry steps up the stairs. Hu Lei was almost coming to term, but she was as energetic as ever. It was the most mysterious thing.
He had seen her condition when she returned after that difficult and unspoken incident. She was malnourished, and her physical condition spoke of changes that should not have occurred in a human. If anything, she was like a slightly different creature than a standard human.
If he were not a good doctor and Hu Lei was not his friend\'s wife, he might have been tempted to dig a little deeper and find out what made her tick.
For example, he always thought with her cold body and her strange physical condition, she would have difficulty conceiving. The chances that she could get a child after looking at the hard data was minimal. And if she did, he did not think that her body could support it.
Strangely enough, she overcame the odds. Moreover, she remained in the best condition he had ever seen. He would never admit his worry, but he had been accessing her charts from the gynaecology office secretly. He was constantly afraid something would go wrong.
"Walk like you have energy. Why are you dawdling?" Hu Lei rebuked him.
Dr Shui wondered why he was worried about the hellion. Maybe he should have moved forward with his plans for leaving Supreme city ahead of time. But again, he wanted to see the Little Master Zhong before he left.
Even though these two ancestors were difficult to serve, they were both fine specimens. Their baby would be impossibly cute.
"Why are you making that face?" Hu Lei asked with suspicion.
"I am thinking of many things." Dr Shui looked a little smug.
"You are thinking of getting married to my cousin, right? You have a weird but pleasing facial expression." Hu Lei smiled a little with a strange glint in her eyes.
Dr Shui felt a little embarrassed, but when he thought of his lady, he was quite happy and satisfied. His life had not worked out exactly as he thought, but he had gotten to a point of happiness. After the time he stayed in Herb Town, he connected with one of Hu Lei\'s cousins.
Their correspondence was at first only focused on medical discussions. However, he found himself liking her more and more. As a romantic-at-heart man, he asked Aunt Huo to allow him to stay in Herb Town for a while to build feelings.
Little by little, they became closer. And now, he could say that he was a man with a girlfriend, no, fiancé. If these two demons could just accept their replacement doctor, he could go off and live blissfully away from the chaos of Supreme City.
He had hoarded a lot of money, so he could retire in peace, working on medical research with his wife in Herb Town.
"Ok, snap out of it." Hu Lei snapped her fingers as they stopped outside a bedroom door. "Do not scare this lady. She is a little disoriented. I am not sure about her general wellbeing, but I think she is three to four months pregnant."
Dr Shui became more serious.
"How is your Japanese?" Hu Lei asked.
"Non-existent." He said.
"Fine. I can be a translator once again, I guess." The smile looked a little mischievous.
In another part of the home, Zhong Feng was in his study. More accurately, he was in a room inside his study behind an imposing bookcase. This secret room was his computer heaven. He had incorporated the high-end space in the home design because it was his childish nerd dream.
Even though he could do most of his hacking using a simple computer, he liked the technological power his complete setup gave him. It had been invaluable for taking down and monitoring the International Health Alliance.
Furthermore, the setup was indispensable for controlling the smart features in the home. He did not trust external systems, so he kept the core network in Azure Woods within his in-house control. Otherwise, he would not have been able to detect Akira as soon as she came into the property.
With fast fingers on the keyboard, he looked into Yamazaki Akira and Takahashi Kaito. He did not, as a principle, look into his friends or family\'s lives, unless it was necessary. Since Kaito had sent a strange woman to his home, it could be considered an invitation to pry.
His cold face did not change as he discovered that someone had gone to great lengths to eliminate all information about the two. If it was anyone else, they might not be able to retrieve the data. However, he was not anyone.
His beautiful face became even more stunning when he almost smiled a little as he found what he was looking for.
