After Tangning returned on set, Wei An was actually more nervous than she was. So, before starting her scene, he anxiously asked, "Are you fine with this? Do you need a body double? Should I warn everyone to be careful?"
"Director Wei..." Tangning's voice contained a trace of helplessness.
"OK, I understand, I'll stop worrying," Wei An returned to his seat uncomfortably. He couldn't help it, he was much too afraid of Mo Ting and was paranoid about how fragile a pregnant woman was. However, as soon as Tangning got into character, Wei An found himself forgetting she was pregnant all the way until the scene was over. "Cut! Time to have a rest and prepare for the next scene," he cheered.
Mo Ting immediately approached Tangning's side and asked, "Are you still OK?"
Tangning looked down at her stomach and replied, "With daddy watching over us, how could we not be OK? I'm fine, don't worry."
"Let's find some time to have dinner with the old man," Mo Ting wrapped his arm around Tangning's waist, treating her like a precious treasure whenever he could.
"You're ready to tell grandfather?"
"He performed well as an elder," Mo Ting replied gently. If Elder Mo had said anything to hurt Tangning, he would have made him regret returning to Beijing.
Tangning giggled without saying a word. She simply kept her focus on her stomach.
While she filmed, Mo Ting sat to the side reading books about pregnancy and babies. And after she finished filming, Mo Ting took care of her lifestyle needs meticulously...
Sometimes, she wished that filming would end quicker. That way, Mo Ting would have one less thing to worry about.
...
After rumors about Tangning not being able to have children started spreading, Elder Tang had actually showed signs of concern. In private, he had contacted Xia Yuling a few times to express what a pity he felt it was.
He had once hoped that even though Tangning couldn't return to the Tang Family, she could at least leave behind a decent descendant. But now...
...his hopes were gone. How could the old man not feel disappointed?
Although he had plenty of offspring, Tangning was the only one truly capable of assuming responsibilty of the family business.
On another note, ever since Tang Xuan was kicked out of the family home, Elder Tang's heart began to soften. After all, blood was thicker than water. So, no matter how big a mistake she made, he knew he would eventually forgive her.
The 20th once again came around. 2pm that day, Elder Tang visited the orphanage like he did every month. However, not long after they left, his assistant noticed there was a car accident which was blocking off the traffic.
"Go have a look at what happened."
Assistant Leng nodded his head and immediately headed over to check on the situation. A moment later, he returned to the car and reported to Elder Tang, "Chairman, a pregnant woman was hit. It's...it's the Big Miss."
"What?" Elder Tang was stunned for a moment before he anxiously reconfirmed, "She was hit?"
"It's not serious. She simply fainted and is being helped by a nurse from a nearby clinic."
"Let's go have a look," Elder Tang sighed as he pushed open the car door. With the assistance of Assistant Leng, he hobbled over, one step at a time with his walking stick, to the scene of the accident.
Seeing Tang Xuan lying on the floor in plain clothes, he shook his head, "Carry her into the car and take her to the hospital."
"But...what will we tell the Madam?" Assistant Leng asked.
"Yuling isn't the unreasonable type. Plus, Tang Xuan is still my granddaughter. Even if she's wrong from head to toe, as her grandfather, I should still forgive her...I'm old now, there's not much else I can do for her."
