Chapter 179

"It\'s alright, it\'s all over. You need to rest well now, don\'t think about anything. I\'m here for you no matter what happens."

Huo Shao Ting gently advised her not to scare her like this again, as his heart really could not take it.

Rong Dai nodded without asking him what exactly had happened.

She still remembered the moment she fainted in the pond.

At that time, she felt very tired and weak. It was like she had been hypnotized.

She knew it was dangerous in the pond and wanted to struggle, but her body would not obey.

After experiencing the covert maneuvers in the harem in her previous life, how could she not realize that this was a setup.

Knowing there would be fighting scenes in the water, she had asked her little sister-in-law to sign her up for swimming lessons.

Even if she had stumbled, she should not have fainted just like that.

She was a clever woman. Many details flashed through her mind as she keenly analyzed the cause and effect of things.

Ever since she passed out from low blood sugar last time, Shao Ting had hired the best nutritionist from Shenjing to take care of her diet.

Her meals had always been prepared by the nutritionist and then brought over by her little sister-in-law.

The nutritionist was personally selected by Shao Ting, so there would be no problem there. And there was no need to mention her little sister-in-law.

So it could only have been that cup of ginger tea brought to her earlier by Wang Xin, a crew member, when she was having her makeup done.

She hadn\'t thought much of it at the time. After all, this was different from her previous life.

The law here was strict. Although still somewhat lacking, openly plotting murder like this would lead to imprisonment.

Unless the perpetrator was suicidal, no one would dare scheme so blatantly on set.

So she hadn\'t been too guarded. Now it seemed she had been too naive.

No matter the time or era, there would always be those who dared to take risks.

Seeing that she did not ask further, Huo Shao Ting guessed what was on her mind.

His wife was an astute woman. She could figure out some things without being told.

Just as Huo Shao Ting was adjusting her pillow for her, Huo Mei Shu and Huo Shao Jie entered the hospital room.

"Sister-in-law, you\'re awake? How are you feeling? Are you a little better?"

Seeing Rong Dai sitting up in bed, though still pale, at least she was conscious now, Huo Mei Shu hurried over excitedly. Her eyes roamed over Rong Dai as she set down an insulated food container.

Huo Mei Shu naturally hadn\'t slept well last night and had cried a lot. Her eyes were still red.

"I\'m fine. I\'m sorry I worried you."

Rong Dai gave a faint smile. She could see that her little sister-in-law had been truly anxious about her.

Huo Mei Shu nodded, and her nasal voice contained a sob. She quickly turned around to wipe her tears.

She had never been as terrified last night as when Left Ran was involved. But when sister-in-law nearly drowned and had to be resuscitated for those two minutes, she felt as if she herself had died, devoid of any sensation.

Fortunately sister-in-law was fine now.

"Sister-in-law, drink some hot congee first. It\'s boiled white congee that you can only eat right now. I had the nutritionist cook it very mushy."

Head lowered, Huo Mei Shu spoke as she poured out the hot congee.

Seeing her red-rimmed eyes, and uncle\'s appearance clearly showed he hadn\'t rested well either, it seemed they had something to tell Shao Ting.

"Shao Ting, I need Mei Shu\'s help with something. Could you and Shao Jie step out for a bit?"

She looked at Huo Shao Ting gently, her voice sounding weak.

Listening on the side, Huo Mei Shu\'s tears rolled down her cheeks unexpectedly.

Seeing Huo Shao Jie, Huo Shao Ting pressed his lips in a cold, stern expression.

Huo Shao Jie looked at her gratefully and followed Huo Shao Ting out of the room.

"I\'m sorry, sister-in-law! If I had been more careful, this wouldn\'t have happened."

After the two brothers left, Huo Mei Shu could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

She looked at Rong Dai remorsefully and distressfully.

Rong Dai gestured for her to sit and pulled some tissues from the side cabinet to gently wipe away her little sister-in-law\'s tears.

"It\'s not your fault. It was me being careless. Don\'t blame yourself."

"But I wasn\'t diligent enough..."

"No buts. Mei Shu, we\'re family. Let\'s not stand on ceremony."

Rong Dai cut her off.

After a few months with her little sister-in-law, she had come to see Mei Shu as her own sister, just as her elder sister had treated her in her previous life.

For the sake of her children\'s affections in her previous life, she had brought misery to her elder sister.

Yet her sister had never blamed her, only supported her in anything she wanted to do, anything her sister agreed with.

She wanted to be a gentle sister-in-law like her elder sister.

Besides, those ill-intentioned villains, even if they didn\'t succeed in harming her this time, would certainly try again.

"You see I\'m fine now, don\'t be sad. It wasn\'t your fault."

Rong Dai spoke gently, but it only made Huo Mei Shu cry harder.

Seeing her little sister-in-law\'s unceasing tears, Rong Dai felt somewhat helpless.

She didn\'t know how dangerous it had been last night, but it seemed to have truly frightened Mei Shu.

She simply let Mei Shu cry into her lap. Sometimes it was better to let it out than keep it bottled up.

After weeping for a while, Huo Mei Shu was a little out of breath.

"Alright, I\'m truly fine now, okay?"

Rong Dai looked at her little sister-in-law. Though two years older than Rong Dai\'s current body, she was crying like a child.

It took Huo Mei Shu quite a while to calm down.

Just then Huo Shao Ting pushed the door open and entered. Not daring to meet her elder brother\'s eyes, Huo Mei Shu hurriedly wiped her tears and stood up.

"Sister-in-law, drink the congee. I\'ll come see you again later."

Rong Dai nodded. She actually didn\'t want Mei Shu to keep coming and going like this.

But if she stopped her, who knew how long it would take for the guilt to fade from Mei Shu\'s heart. So she didn\'t try to prevent it.

"No need. I\'ll take care of my wife myself."

Huo Shao Ting was still stern and coldly declined Huo Mei Shu.

Rong Dai frowned, about to speak, when she saw Mei Shu quickly nod. "I understand, elder brother."

She knew her elder brother was upset.

Sister-in-law had truly almost died this time.

She didn\'t dare imagine what her elder brother would become if something really happened to sister-in-law.

After her little sister-in-law left, Rong Dai drank a couple spoonfuls of the congee and looked at him helplessly. "It wasn\'t intentional on Mei Shu\'s part. I didn\'t even expect something like this myself, you can\'t blame her."

"I\'m not blaming her."

Huo Shao Ting stubbornly insisted.

He had originally agreed to let Mei Shu stay by her side precisely because Mei Shu was his sister, and he would feel more at ease than with an outsider.

But he hadn\'t expected this to happen.

And he knew why Mei Shu insisted on coming to the film set.

He had already properly arranged everything else. Mei Shu only needed to do some trivial tasks each day.

She didn\'t even need to handle Rong Dai\'s schedule and time arrangements. Shao Ting had taken care of all that himself. Mei Shu only needed to remind Rong Dai.
