Chapter 1229: Good Opportunity

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The next morning, Gu Zi woke to feed the baby.

She felt a soothing sense of relief wash over her entire body. When she glanced at Su Shen, her eyes softened considerably, warmed by gratitude and affection. Had he not helped her with the milk extraction the night before, she would surely have endured a painful, sleepless night.

The taste of breast milk could be strangely metallic and off-putting, something many adults struggled to stomach. Yet Su Shen hadn’t spat out a single drop—truly a testament to his reliability. That husband of hers was surprisingly dependable.

As she fed Teddy, Gu Zi suddenly remembered that the supply of formula was running low. She looked up at Su Shen and said, "I’m still in confinement, and it’s inconvenient for me to go out. Why don’t you take the kids to the mall today? While you’re there, pick up some formula. The baby drinks milk, but it’s never quite enough."

Su Shen stepped forward, cradling Teddy gently in his arms. "We’ll go right after breakfast. Gu Zi, is there anything else you want me to buy for you? If not, I’ll just pick out something for you."

Since giving birth, Gu Zi had been especially reluctant to exert her mind. If Su Shen made a decision, she trusted him without hesitation. She nodded, offering a simple, "Then just pick whatever you think is best."

After breakfast, Su Shen led the three children out the door. Meanwhile, Su Jing tidied the dining table, washed the dishes in the kitchen, then returned to find Gu Zi settled on the couch watching TV. A thought struck her, and she approached.

"Sis-in-law," she said, "do you remember Huang Fei?"

At the mention of Huang Fei, Gu Zi’s brow furrowed. That woman should have been out of prison for quite some time. Strange—why hadn’t she been back at the Xu family’s place? Xu Sheng had visited their home on Friday afternoon, yet there was no mention of Huang Fei.

"I remember," Gu Zi replied cautiously. "Have you seen her?"

Su Jing nodded. "Yes, it’s definitely her—though she looks a lot more beaten down. I recognized her right away. I’ve noticed she’s been lingering near our house these past few days, like she’s staking out someone. She went to prison for spreading rumors about you. Now that she’s out, do you think she might be plotting revenge?"

Gu Zi considered this carefully, then shook her head. "I don’t think she’s simply guarding this place for that reason. Maybe she found out that Su Bing and the others are Xu family kids. She might be worried they’ll try to claim the family’s fortune. That’s possible. But Su Jing, aren’t you supposed to deal with Su Mo’s situation? I think this might actually be a good opportunity. Only, since I’m still in confinement, I can’t go with you. Do you think you can handle it alone?"

"I’ve been watching you for days, Huang Fei," Su Jing said, gripping her firmly. "You came to Guangcheng with bad intentions toward my sister-in-law, and now that you’re in the capital, you’re still harassing her? What’s your game? Come on—you’re coming with me to the police station!" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
