Before dawn, Huo Junxian woke up. It can be said that she had stayed up all night. After taking a shower and changing into fresh clothes, she went to the next room to hug Teddy.
Gu Siyu went over to help with a clean face. When she went downstairs, she saw the woman from yesterday standing downstairs. The woman made eye contact with her and then looked towards the room where Huo Junxian was.
The room was quite bright. She was wearing nightgown, and Gu Siyu recognized her, which startled her. Gu Siyu pointed upstairs and said, "Huo Junxian is upstairs. You can go and check on her."
The woman shook her head and just kept looking.
Gu Siyu didn't speak to her anymore. She looked at her legs, then went to the room to help lift Teddy into the car. Both of them were very careful, trying not to wake it up. Teddy opened its eyes once, saw the two adults, and then closed its eyes with confidence.
Chen Tao heard the noise and hurried over to drive. He held the steering wheel, and the woman from yesterday ran towards them, barefoot and wearing only a thin nightgown.
"Junxian, Xiaoxian, don't go."
She had a strong grip, shaking the car window, looking very anxious with tears in her eyes. "I don't want to stay here. I don't want to stay here anymore."
Teddy was almost awakened by the noise. Huo Junxian covered it with a blanket, and Chen Tao dialed a number on his phone. He got out of the car and went to pull the woman. "Madam, don't make a scene. We'll take you when you're better."
"I'm better. I'm already better! Don't touch me; it's all because of you!" The woman broke free from his hand, suddenly paused, as if thinking about something. She looked at Huo Junxian again and shivered, saying, "Junxian, will you still come to see me? You promised your dad that you would come to see me during the holidays. You said you wouldn't be angry with me. Don't be angry with Mom..."
Her voice was low, and she cried, but Huo Junxian didn't look at her.
The maids hurriedly ran over to hold her. She started crying, tears flowing continuously. Chen Tao scolded them, asking why they didn't watch her.
Chen Tao gave careful instructions and returned only after a short distance. Closing the car door, he looked back, and Huo Junxian had a calm expression. "Let's go."
Gu Siyu looked out the window without saying much.
They moved quickly, and the entire estate was still asleep. Gu Siyu saw the woman turning back as she walked away, her expression somewhat pitiful. Perhaps she resembled Huo Junxian, and Gu Siyu felt sorry for her.
"She's sick and is recuperating here," Huo Junxian said. "Originally, we were supposed to celebrate the holiday here with her, but Xiao Yu couldn't wait."
Gu Siyu nodded.
Unexpected events in life often come unexpectedly, without time for holiday decorations or preparations.
Fortunately, they hadn't set high expectations, so they didn't feel regret. However, many people like to celebrate this holiday, and the road back was frequently congested. They encountered frequent stops and starts on the way.
Once Teddy woke up, it immediately sat up, staring out of the window curiously and perplexedly, unsure of its whereabouts.
Huo Junxian stroked its head, placing it on her lap. "We're going home. Are you happy?"
"Woof." Teddy nodded vigorously, leaning against Huo Junxian and acting cute on her lap.
Huo Junxian gave it some dried meat, and it looked completely satisfied.
