Chapter 60
Seeing this, Fade Chen quickly felt his wife's pulse. The result made Fade Chen a little worried.
As the Ice Lotus in her body was getting closer to maturity, the poison in her body became stronger. This caused her physical condition continued to weaken. So, even a little exercise, her body could not stand it anymore.
Thinking of this, Fade Chen couldn't help but decide in his heart. He was going to make his wife a set of medicines to strengthen her body. Otherwise, before the Ice Lotus could ripen, his wife might not be able to withstand the poison and die.
Quin Lin also realised the problem with her body. Her interest in practising martial arts suddenly faded. After dinner, she went upstairs.
Momo Soo noticed that something was wrong and asked Fade Chen about it. When she found out that her cousin was in poor health, she went upstairs to accompany Quin Lin.
Fade Chen had nothing to do now. He got ready and went out to buy some herbs to prepare the medicine for his wife as soon as possible.
Just as Fade Chen was about to go out, footsteps came from the door outside, and then a weak voice was heard, "Mom, I'm here!"
Fade Chen went to open the door, and then saw a man about 27 or 28 years of age standing at the door. The man was thin and short. He wore a pair of thick glasses, with short hair and sportswear. When he saw Fade Chen, he was a little surprised and flustered.
"Hello, may I ask who are you..." Fade Chen asked with some doubts.
"I, I am..." The man lowered his head and whispered.
At this moment, Housekeeper Wong wiped her hands and ran over with embarrassment. She glanced at the man and said, "This is Mr. Chen. Where are your manners!"
"Hi, Mr Chen!" The man greeted and then lowered his head. He looked very reserved.
Housekeeper Wong introduced to Fade Chen, "Sir, this is my son Jordan Qi. We are going out together later, so I asked him to come here." "Oh! Housekeeper Wong, then go ahead. Don't worry about the things at home." Fade Chen nodded and then thought of something. "Housekeeper Wong, are you going to the city? I'm going out, too. Why don't we go together?"
"This, this may not be appropriate." Housekeeper Wong smiled politely.
Fade Chen smiled and said, "Housekeeper Wong, don't be so polite to me. Just wait for a moment with Jordan. I'll change my shoes and drive out right away."
Soon, Fade Chen changed his shoes and drove Housekeeper Wong and Jordan Qi to the city together. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Along the way, Fade Chen chatted with Housekeeper Wong. After that, Fade Chen knew what Housekeeper Wong was going to do with her son.
It turned out that Housekeeper Wong was taking her son to a blind date.
Jordan Qi was a top student in a university. After graduating with a major in chemistry, he worked in a factory for four or five years. His personal abilities and working attitude was good and he was praised by his colleagues in the factory.
But the main point was that he was too introverted. In his work, he only focused on his job in the factory. So, many credits were taken away by others. He had been working for almost half a decade, and his salary was only 6,000 dollars a month, which was far less than his peers who came to the factory at the same time.
In terms of Jordan's personal life, due to his personality, he had never been in contact with any women, not to mention dating. Seeing that Jordan Qi was about to reach 30 years of age, Housekeeper Wong was also anxious. She asked all kinds of acquaintances and friends to introduce any available women to her.
Some time ago, Housekeeper Wong heard of a girl from an acquaintance. The girl was also a college student and would soon graduate in a semester's time. The girl had a good character and appearance.
So, Housekeeper Wong hurriedly arranged this blind date after her son got off work.
After that, Housekeeper Wong kept talking to Fade Chen, and kept telling her son the key points of the blind date. Housekeeper Wong told Jordan Qi that he had to be more open-minded, take the initiative to talk more with the girl, and coax people. Housekeeper Wong even asked Fade Chen to teach him how to pursue a beautiful woman like President Lin.
It was inconvenient for Fade Chen to say anything about personal relationships. He simply said a few things to satisfy their qualms. Then he sent them to a pedestrian street in the city center.
After Housekeeper Wong and Jordan Qi got off the car, Fade Chen drove to the other side of town and found a home-based pharmacy to buy some herbs.
Fade Chen bought several bags of medicinal herbs from the shop and put them in the car. However, the most important medicine, "Fire Flame Plant", was not found. The Fire Flame Plant had Yang properties and contained a rich Yang energy. After taking the medicine, it would have some effect on the poison in Quin Lin's body, and it was also suitable to help her strengthen her body.
He asked several pharmacy stores in a row, but failed to find the Fire Flame Plant. Fade Chen could only find another way to find this herb.
So Fade Chen wanted to drive home. Before he started the car, Fade Chen suddenly saw two figures coming out of a western restaurant next to the car. They were two girls in their early twenties, and Fade Chen knew who they were.
Among them, the woman with blond hair and a plump figure was Yasmin Huang. Yasmin Huang was wearing a loose long dress, covering her waist, so now her waist and abdomen were not so obvious.
A short-haired woman next to her, who was also a member of the Taekwondo Club the other time, was holding Yasmin Huang's arm and talking about something closely.
Although Fade Chen did not eavesdrop deliberately, the conversation between the two still reached his ears.
The short-haired woman asked, "Yasmin, why did you suddenly come out for a blind date?"
Yasmin Huang pointed to her slightly protruding belly and whispered, "It's all because of this little guy."
"Are you going to give birth soon?" The short-haired woman asked in surprise.
Yasmin Huang glared at her and said, "Are you stupid? It's not even been three months. How can it be so fast?"
"Then why?" The short-haired woman asked doubtfully.
Yasmin Huang said, "Last week, I went to Leonard Zhu and told him I want to keep the baby. But Leonard said that the baby must be aborted. If I didn't agree, he would stop giving me my living expenses."
"Do you mean that you want to find a stepfather for the child?" The short- haired woman asked.
Yasmin Huang curled her lip and said disdainfully, "What stepfather? It's just a spare tyre for the time being. When the child is born, Leonard Zhu won't give me living expenses anymore. I have to find a way. I'll get married and find an honest person to live with first and get some living expenses. When the child is born, we will break up immediately."
"What do you plan to do after the child is born?" The short-haired woman asked with some concern.
Yasmin Huang looked hopeful and said, "Are you stupid? The Zhu family owns such a big company. I am giving birth to a child of the Zhu family. At that time, I will go to the company. So even if Leonard does not want to marry me, it will be easy to ask for money. Besides, Leonard Zhu's father Xavier Zhu is well- known for valuing men and belittling women. If I gave birth to a baby boy, perhaps my child can gain an inheritance from the Zhu family. At that time, I will..."
With this, Yasmin Huang's eyes lit up as if she could see her beautiful future.
