Jiang Yao would have guaranteed that Lu Xingzhi would not even be able to smell the soup, let alone eat the buns, if he had told her that first.
âIs the situation so complicated and critical that you canât tell me over the phone?â Jiang Yao fixed his gaze on Lu Xingzhi. âDid you purposefully trick me into returning here?â
âNo.â Someoneâs face was flushed, and his heart almost stopped beating. âI just have the impression that this is a significant and complicated issue.â
âHow complicated is it?â Jiang Yao chuckled. Her smile was stiff and unnatural. âCome and analyze it with me. Where is the complication?â
Lu Xingzhiâs eyelids twitched, and his thoughts raced. âIsnât the divorce between Big Brother Liang and his wife complicated?â he asked. âEven though they are divorced, he requested that we look after her. He must still harbor feelings for her. Donât you think so?â
Jiang Yao was enraged by Lu Xingzhiâs nonsense and burst out laughing. âYou are quite capable!â
Jiang Yao laughed, and Lu Xingzhiâs alarm went off immediately. He decided to be thick-skin about it.
Lu Xingzhi embraced Jiang Yao with his uninjured hand, then lowered his head and kissed her.
âWell, it shouldnât be that difficult for me to return here to accompany you, right? It looks like there are days when you donât mean what you say.â She did not dare to lean on Lu Xingzhiâs body. As a result, her posture was a little awkward, so she pushed Lu Xingzhi away. She hugged his arm.
âWell, youâre right.â Lu Xingzhi reasoned that since Jiang Yao still acted coquettishly with him, he did not need to worry about her.
âMom and Dad went shopping. They wanted to purchase some items for the baby. You can take a nap after a walk around the ward.â Jiang Yao placed the thermos on the side table before taking Lu Xingzhiâs slippers from under the bed. âBe careful. Donât rush around like a rabid dog.â
Rabid dog?
Lu Xingzhi smiled. âHow do I walk to avoid looking like a rabid animal?â
Jiang Yao took Lu Xingzhiâs unharmed hand and said, âHold me. Just walk slowly like me.â
âYou do not want me to be like a rabid dog. You want me to walk like a queen,â Lu Xingzhi exclaimed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jiang Yao had had enough and pinched his palm. âWhat nonsense are you spouting?â
Lu Xingzhi shook his head quickly.
âMom has trouble sleeping at night. I will spend the night with you at the hospital.â Jiang Yao watched Lu Xingzhiâs steps carefully, not wanting him to move too quickly. After all, he had numerous wounds on his body. âI also canât get used to not having you talk to me at night.â
Jiang Yao was used to Lu Xingzhiâs hands touching her stomach while she slept.
Lu Xingzhi did not do it the previous night. Finally, she took Mrs. Jiangs hand and placed it on her stomach, causing Mrs. Jiang to laugh.
âYour hand has become our sonâs little blanket. When you open your palm, it almost completely covers my stomach.â Jiang Yao laughed after gesturing to Lu Xingzhiâs large palm. âHowever, as my stomach grows, no matter how big your hand is, it will not be able to cover it..â
