Thinking of all those years in the Su Household, he had worked like an ox and a horse, treading carefully at every turn. It was all because he had married into the Su Household, and everyone in the family looked down on him.

Even now, though he controlled more than half of Su Corporation's businesses, some of the old shareholders still looked down on him, all because he had married into the family!

At that thought, a trace of viciousness flashed through Zhou Guomin's eyes, and he felt even more disgusted with Su Minghui.

Since he could not persuade Su Minghui, Zhou Guomin truly did not want to stay any longer. He simply made an excuse that there was something to handle at the company and quickly left the hospital room.

Su Minghui soothed Su Leyun and glanced at Zhou Guomin's departing back. A flicker of disappointment passed through her eyes before she quickly looked away. Meeting Su Leyun's dark eyes, she forced a smile. "Be good, Lele. Are you hungry?"

As she spoke, she picked up the formula prepared beside her and fed Su Leyun.

Su Leyun pursed his lips, about to say that he did not drink formula, when the scent of milk reached him and his stomach suddenly rumbled.

Hungry...

The moment the thought crossed his mind, a nipple was stuffed into his mouth.

Su Leyun instinctively took a sip. The next second, his eyes widened, and he began sucking hard on the bottle with all four limbs flailing.

Gulp gulp... Delicious...

Not long after Zhou Guomin left, Fu Siwen came directly to the hospital to handle Su Minghui's discharge procedures. Once everything was complete, she took Su Minghui and Su Leyun straight to Number One Postpartum Care Center.

Su Minghui stayed at Number One Postpartum Care Center for a month. During that month, Zhou Guomin only visited Su Minghui and Su Leyun twice. The rest of the time, he mostly called and claimed he was busy with company matters.

Although Su Minghui had long known that Zhou Guomin's intentions were impure, his behavior over the past month still broke her heart. From then on, she simply devoted all her attention to Su Leyun.

Number One Postpartum Care Center truly deserved its reputation as a top-tier facility. Every service there was first-class. Over the past month, Su Minghui only felt upset when she thought of Zhou Guomin; otherwise, she lived quite comfortably.

Even little Su Leyun had been raised plump and fair.

Inside a top VIP suite at Wancheng Postpartum Care Center in the Imperial Capital.

A slender, delicate-looking woman was holding the infant in her arms and nursing her, her whole body seemingly bathed in the glow of maternal love.

Suddenly, the bathroom door opened from within, and Zhou Guomin emerged in a bathrobe, just in time to see the scene before him.

A flash of lust passed through his eyes, though his tone remained exceptionally gentle. "What is it? Is Qianqian hungry again?"

Zheng Xiuru had just finished feeding the child. She lowered her top and shot Zhou Guomin a bashful glare.

Though she was already in her thirties, the gesture did not seem out of place at all. Instead, it made her seem even more mature and shy.

Zhou Guomin's male pride was satisfied, and he smiled. "You've already had a child. Why are you still so shy?"

He walked over, wrapped an arm around Zheng Xiuru's waist, and gave it a hard squeeze.

Zheng Xiuru placed the infant in her arms into the cradle and nestled against Zhou Guomin like a little bird. "Brother Min, I'll be done with my postpartum recovery soon. But where will the baby and I go afterward?"

Without waiting for Zhou Guomin to answer, she continued, "Brother Min, do you know? This has been the happiest period of my life. I think it has also been the happiest period of Qianqian's life. For this past month, we've been like a real family of three. We've been just like a family. But I know this illusion is about to end. I really can't bear to leave you, Brother Min. I can't bear to leave you..."

Hearing Zheng Huiru's words, Zhou Guomin's face darkened, and a trace of displeasure flashed through his eyes. "Who knows what kind of madness that stupid woman Su Minghui is suffering from? She insisted on staying at that Number One Postpartum Care Center."

"That's a property under Chu Corporation. I can't make a move there at all!"

He had originally arranged everything perfectly. He had already bribed all the attending doctors and nurses at Wancheng Postpartum Care Center, just waiting for Su Minghui to move in with Su Leyun.

Then, he could find an opportunity to have Su Leyun abducted by traffickers. That way, he would have an excuse to adopt the daughter he had with Zheng Xiuru, Zhou Qianqian.

But Su Minghui had instead taken Su Leyun to Number One Postpartum Care Center. That place was guarded like an impenetrable fortress, and he had no way to act.

At that thought, a trace of malice surfaced on Zhou Guomin's face. His carefully laid plans had been ruined again and again, giving him the unsettling feeling that things were about to slip beyond his control.

When Zheng Xiuru heard Zhou Guomin mention Minghui, jealousy appeared in her eyes, but she quickly hid it. She lifted her head weakly. "Brother Min, I just don't want to leave you so soon..."

"Qianqian isn't even a month old yet. This is exactly when she needs her father by her side. Whenever I think about how Qianqian and I will have to leave you and might not see you more than a few times a month, it hurts."

Listening to Zheng Xiuru's choked voice and looking at his daughter sleeping obediently nearby, Zhou Guomin felt that he was the great hero in the hearts of this mother and daughter, the pillar holding up their home.

Then he thought of the Su Household, where everyone said he had married into the family and only risen through the support of his wife and father-in-law.

The comparison made him feel even more sorry for Zheng Xiuru and her daughter.

"Hmph. Since that bastard is so lucky that even traffickers can't steal him away, then I'll just find an opportunity to kill him! Once that bastard is gone and no longer in the way, I can bring Qianqian back to the Su Household." Zhou Guomin's voice was cold and sinister.
