You'd better look back, Mr. Shen is about to break.

Chapter 123 Car Accident

Yu Nanqing's ears turned red, and her foot, which was pressed against his knee, remained frozen. Only when he picked her up did she exclaim in surprise, and then she wrapped her arms around his waist. "Shen Mochen?"

The bathroom was filled with steam, and the mirror directly opposite was fogged up, obscuring their faces. This made her feel less ashamed.

"All done." Shen Mochen suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, his eyes flashing with desire, grabbed a bath towel, wrapped it around her, and carried her out of the bathroom.

Once on the bed, Yu Nanqing stopped him from dressing her. She took the first step, picked up the clothes from the bedside, and put them on. A few strands of hair flew up from the sides as the clothes rubbed against her, and with her obedient expression, Shen Mochen couldn't bring himself to say anything sinful.

He simply reached out and smoothed her hair, his fingertips running through her strands, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of a familiar pattern in her almost invisible part of her hair.

Although it was just an edge, he was certain it was the cat-shaped pattern.

He paused for two seconds, then slowly looked away, his expression inscrutable. "Alright, go and rest now."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Yu Nanqing paused for two seconds, then reached out and grabbed the hem of his clothes, "Where are you going?"

"Go to the pet store and pick up Qiuqiu." Shen Mochen glanced back at her, noticing the tension in her eyes, then chuckled softly and leaned in to kiss her. "My sweetie doesn't want me to leave? Then why don't you..."

"No, go ahead." Yu Nanqing blushed and hurriedly let go of his hand before he could finish speaking, even pushing him twice in the process.

Ask him about the lab book; we'll talk about it when he gets back.

There's no rush; we'll find out the reason eventually.

I was so blinded by lust that I was completely captivated by Shen Mochen and forgot all about this.

As soon as Shen Mochen stepped out the door, Yu Nanqing heard the system's sharp, booming sound in her mind.

What did you do while I was away?

Yu Nanqing was slightly taken aback, startled by its sudden sound. After regaining her composure, her eyes showed confusion. "What...did I do?"

You told Shen Mochen about the existence of our system?!

Yu Nanqing was taken aback. So that's what it was about. Her brow twitched, and she crawled into the covers, ready to play dead.

No wonder the system didn't respond that day; it was because I wasn't there.

She pursed her lips, her fingers lightly pinching the corner of the blanket. Who told it to be so unreliable, always offline?

【You should be glad nothing happened yet, otherwise we would all be taken away and destroyed!】 The system was so angry that it was fuming. It paced back and forth in the space, and finally couldn't hold back, so it popped out and gave her a flick on the forehead.

A soft, yielding hand landed on her head, but Yu Nanqing felt nothing. However, to respond to it—otherwise it would be too overwhelming—she forced out two tears. [It hurts so much.]

[It's okay if it hurts, but there must be no next time... there can't be a next time!]

【Okay, okay.】 Yu Nanqing waved her hand to dismiss it, her sleepy eyes gradually closing. Just as her consciousness was about to fade, she seemed to hear it say something about another system, but she didn't hear it clearly and forgot it completely when she woke up.

When Shen Mochen arrived at the pet store, Qiuqiu had already been washed and was sitting in its cage, looking like a sculpture, with a shiny and beautiful appearance.

Upon seeing him, its tail wagged slightly, but it stubbornly refrained from displaying its usual foolishness and coldly withdrew its gaze.

Shen Mochen glanced at it, swiped his card and filled out the form before leisurely reaching out to lead it. As he got closer, he followed its gaze and noticed the majestic German Shepherd in the cage opposite.

Shen Mochen looked away and chuckled, "Stop looking, she's already been sterilized."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiuqiu stopped in her tracks, turned around and looked at him incredulously, then turned her ear away and walked forward.

"Take care, Mr. Shen."

"Mm," Shen Mochen responded softly, then went out and took Qiuqiu into the car.

Qiuqiu is indeed a delicate dog; she gets carsick, but the good thing is that she can calm down for a while.

Shen Mochen personally fastened its seatbelt and lowered the car window halfway, afraid that it would get dizzy and be neglected by his wife when they got home.

A gust of wind blew in through the car window. Shen Mochen glanced at the obedient dog beside him, then looked out the window and inadvertently caught sight of two familiar figures at the hospital entrance.

Just then, Yu Yan, who was driving, also spoke up, "President Shen, should we continue to suppress Chen's Entertainment?"

The Chen family has been having a rough time lately; almost everyone in the family is experiencing a major misfortune.

Shen Mochen withdrew his gaze, twirling the phone in his palm between his fingertips, before finally speaking, "...Wait a little longer..."

"boom!"

The last word was drowned out by a loud bang. The violent impact on his head almost made him lose consciousness. Just as his eyes were about to close, he saw the stupid dog desperately biting and tugging at the hem of his clothes.

Saliva splattered everywhere. Shen Mochen frowned, stubbornly refusing to faint despite the excruciating pain in his body. But his obsessive-compulsive disorder kicked in, making him forget about the dog in front of him. He reached out and pushed the dog away, laboriously unbuckled his seatbelt, and then dragged Yu Yan out of the car.

Someone nearby called an ambulance. Shen Mochen thanked them and, seeing that the stupid dog had also come down, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down in front of a flower bed.

Blood was flowing down his forehead, and when his fingertips touched the warm, sticky substance, a series of sounds, like electric currents, suddenly echoed in his mind.

He paused, his subconscious gesture of patting his head frozen in mid-air. His heart was beating a little fast, subconsciously embracing the fusion of this unfamiliar feeling.

A sharp pain rose from within me, a feeling akin to being reborn from the ashes, and as I was drenched in sweat, a beeping sound echoed in my mind.

Then… a startling voice slowly emerged.

[Beep... Successfully bound to host.]

Upon learning of Shen Mochen's car accident, Yu Nanqing panicked and rushed out without even changing out of her pajamas, throwing on a coat as she went.

When she arrived at the hospital, she immediately saw Qiuqiu being pulled by Assistant Yan by the roadside, its gray and white fur stained with a lot of bright red blood.

Her eyelids twitched violently, her reddened eyes trembled, and after touching them, she hurriedly walked towards the hospital.

Shen Mochen was still in the emergency room. Looking at the light on the emergency room door, Yu Nanqing was flustered and her fingertips were tightly clenched into her palms. She forced herself not to shed tears.

The surgery lasted a full three hours. During that time, Old Master Shen came by. Yu Nanqing thought he was going to say something about her being a scourge, but unexpectedly, he actually comforted her with a few words.

Although what he said wasn't very pleasant to listen to.

"Shen Mochen has always been lucky; this little car accident won't kill him."

"You'd better not ruin your health. This is when you're most needed. After the surgery, Shen Mochen will need your care for everything, from eating and drinking to using the toilet."

Yu Nanqing paused, then glanced at him hesitantly.

Noticing her gaze, Old Master Shen raised an eyebrow. "Don't look at me. I won't help you at all."
