Opening his eyes groggily and taking a blurry look at his surroundings, Lin Yu quietly closed his eyes again.
???
What is going on?
Three question marks popped up one after another in Lin Yu's aching head.
In that fleeting glance just now, Lin Yu vaguely saw four silhouettes.
Stunning and charming in their own ways, each possessing her own unique beauty.
Plump or slender, all distinctly different.
Normally, Lin Yu would be more than happy to have some pleasant interactions and fun with one or even a few of them.
But when all four of them were gathered together, the situation was completely different!
Tang Manman, Qing Mo, and Xia Muzhu were fine.
After all, the three of them had shared the same bed and had a certain emotional foundation.
But when Su Yuyao inserted herself into the mix, things took a turn!
Lin Yu could sense Tang Manman's dissatisfaction with Su Yuyao.
Lin Yu still remembered that when the news of Su Yuyao's pregnancy broke, his biggest worry was her and Xia Yueshan.
That hotheaded Xia Yueshan was only a secondary concern.
What he feared most back then was Tang Manman.
He was afraid that upon hearing the news, she would instantly turn red like a character named Long Kui from a famous TV drama, and then come at him with a sword to stab him.
Later, when Tang Manman said over the phone that she could accept Su Yuyao and the baby in her belly, and that she didn't mind them, Lin Yu briefly thought he was dreaming.
Only later did he find out that this was all Qing Mo cleaning up the mess for him behind the scenes.
Every time he thought of this.
Lin Yu felt that he really ought to properly thank...
Uh...
No.
It was more like tormenting...
Sigh...
That doesn't seem right either...
...
Ugh!
Forget it!
Never mind her for now!
Anyway.
In the year after Little Darling was born, although Tang Manman didn't say anything openly, Lin Yu could feel it.
She was becoming increasingly dissatisfied with Su Yuyao!
Anyone with eyes could see her resentment.
As for the reason behind Tang Manman's dissatisfaction with Su Yuyao, Lin Yu knew it perfectly well.
Before Su Yuyao and the Little Darling in her belly appeared.
His time allocation throughout the year was roughly: school days with Tang Manman, holidays with Xia Muzhu, and Qing Mo flying around all year.
But after Su Yuyao and Little Darling appeared.
The time he spent with the three of them combined in a year probably didn't even amount to two months.
And within those two months, Qing Mo, who frequently flew over, took up nearly half of the time.
On average, over the past year, the time he spent by Xia Muzhu and Tang Manman's side averaged no more than fifteen days each.
Going from seven months down to fifteen days in a flash, the fact that Tang Manman could hold back from releasing her alternate personality was already giving him, this scumbag, a lot of face.
So her grudge against Su Yuyao was entirely understandable.
Next was Xia Muzhu.
She definitely had her own grievances with Su Yuyao too.
Although outwardly her attitude toward Su Yuyao was decent, being neither cold nor overly warm.
But given her personality, this lukewarm attitude spoke volumes!
Tang Manman and Xia Muzhu, one openly dissatisfied with Su Yuyao, the other inwardly dissatisfied, felt like they were on the verge of forming an alliance.
However, Su Yuyao wasn't exactly a universal target.
At the very least, she still had Qing Mo to help her out a bit.
Thank goodness Qing Mo was there.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the hospital room was merely oppressive, rather than a hair-trigger tension where a fight could break out at any second!
It was just that...
Lin Yu stealthily opened his eyes to a mere slit, feeling that if he didn't come up with an idea soon, it wasn't impossible for the situation to escalate!
Speak of the devil.
Just as Lin Yu was worrying about the situation escalating, a nurse pushed the door open holding a medical chart and routinely asked:
Which of you is the patient's family member?
Like a stone tossed into a still lake, this question instantly disrupted the somewhat oppressive atmosphere in the room completely.
Standing by the window, further from the door, Tang Manman and Xia Muzhu almost simultaneously raised their eyes to look at the young nurse at the doorway.
One after the other, they answered almost in unison:
I am.
I...
Tang Manman was ultimately a bit faster, preemptively claiming the title.
Xia Muzhu lagged behind by just a fraction; she barely let out the word I before awkwardly closing her lips.
Here is the patient's form.
We need a family member to sign it.
Faced with this somewhat bizarre scene, the highly professional nurse didn't show any strange expressions. She nodded calmly and instinctively walked toward Tang Manman.
Suddenly.
A pale, fair hand intercepted the nurse who was heading toward Tang Manman.
Before the nurse could react, that small, fair hand snatched the medical chart away and softly dropped a nuclear bomb.
I have a child with him.
Let me do it.
Su Yuyao's breezy remark rang exceptionally clear in the quiet hospital room.
Lin Yu didn't know what expressions the others in the room made when they heard this.
But Lin Yu felt this hospital was pretty crappy.
It felt like something had just leaked electricity, shocking him so much that his hairs stood on end, his scalp tingled, and he broke out in a full-body sweat!
But now was not the time to fuss over such trivial matters.
Lin Yu felt he couldn't play dead anymore.
If he kept faking it, someone was going to get killed!
Cough, cough!
Cough, cough, cough, cough!
Lin Yu didn't care that it was his head that was injured, nor did he care that coughing made his brain ache. He began to cough weakly, beating everyone else to the punch before they could speak.
Lin Yu's coughing successfully drew the attention of everyone in the room.
Slowly opening his eyes, the first thing Lin Yu did wasn't to look at Su Yuyao, who had dropped the bombshell, nor at the reactions of the other three. Instead, he looked straight at the fuse standing by the doorway.
Lady?
Are you still watching?
The form has already been taken; shouldn't you be leaving?
The nurse looked reluctant to leave.
Although messy situations were common in the hospital.
A mess of this magnitude was still a rare occurrence.
Naturally, the nurse didn't want to miss the show.
However, under Lin Yu's threatening gaze that screamed leave right now or I'll file a complaint, she had no choice but to take the form Su Yuyao had already signed and leave reluctantly.
The third wheel was gone.
Lin Yu swept his peripheral vision over the four women surrounding his hospital bed.
Alarm bells blared in his heart.
Lin Yu knew that the more critical the situation, the less he could afford to panic!
He couldn't yield, couldn't be timid; he had to seize the initiative.
Otherwise, he would suffer greatly in the days to come!
