Chapter 236 His Heart Ached Hearing Lucas say this, even though Emily felt that it was inappropriate, she had no choice but to accept the gifts prepared by the two old men, Just like what Lucas said, she could prepare a few more prescriptions and precious medicinal herbs later in return. After thinking it through, she nodded to the two little ones and said, âRemember to thank the grandfathers.â âThank you, grandpas.â
The two little ones answered in unison, and then looked at Mr. Hawking and Mr. Meng to express their thanks.
The soft and childish voice made the two old men feel soft in their hearts.
Because of this, Mr. Meng began to urge Meng Jinchuanâs private affairs. âLittle brat, look at Ms. Armstrong. Sheâs about the same age as you. Sheâs already the mother of two children. When are you going to find me a granddaughter-in-law and let me have a great-grandson?â
Meng Jinchuan suddenly felt that he should not have come for todayâs meal. With a bitter face, he said embarrassedly. âI will do my best.â âI donât want you to do your best. I want you to take action.â Old Master Meng forced him again. Meng Jinchuan could only nod repeatedly. When the others saw his bitter look, they couldnât help laughing. Soon, the meal ended amidst the laughter.
It was still Lucas who sent Emily and her children home. On the way, the two little ones were obviously tired, and they fell asleep soon after leaning against Emily. Seeing this, Emily adjusted the sleeping posture of the two little ones so that they could sleep more comfortably. The two little ones were still sleeping soundly. She could not help but smile when she saw them like that. âIt seems that they are really tired today!â Emily whispered softly, her face full of love. Lucas agreed with these words. He looked down at the two sleeping children beside him and smiled. He could not help but reach out to touch the two little faces. They were soft and delicate. After a while, the car stopped at the gate of the community The two little ones did not wake up, and Emily was reluctant to wake them up, but she was unable to carry the two children at the same time âYou carry Ethan, Iâll carry Sofia. Iâll take her upstairs,â Lucas said gently. âOkay. Mr. Greens.â Emily did not refuse. After thanking him, she carried Ethan out of the car. When they got home, they saw Lucy sitting on the sofa and watching TV. She was obviously waiting for them to come back Emily greeted her and took Lucas to the childrenâs room, placing the two children on the bed. After settling down, the two of them returned to the living room. When Lucy saw the two of them come out, she smiled and asked, âWhy are you back so late today? Have you had dinner yet? If you havenât, I still have some in the kitchen.â âWe have, but I can eat it later as a midnight snack.â Emily playfully coaxed Lucy âOkay, just treat it as a midnight snack later,â Lucy nodded with a smile. Lucas quietly listened to the two people talking. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile. He felt that this kind of life was more like home.
He didnât want to leave, but there was no reason to stay, so he said goodbye. âItâs getting late, so Iâll take my leave.â He turned to leave. The next second, Emily stopped him. âMr. Greens, wait, donât go yet, until you finish your acupuncture.â Hearing this, although Lucas stopped in his tracks, the expression on his face was somewhat hesitant. âYouâve been busy all day, so you should be very tired. How about we do it when you get better tomorrow?â The reason why he said that was because he saw how tired Emily was during the day, so he hoped that Emily could have a good rest at night. Emily also saw it and felt warm in her heart. However, she insisted, âDonât worry, Iâm fine.â Seeing the determined expression on the little womanâs face, Lucas could not refuse anymore. He nodded and followed Emily to the bedroom.
Although Emily said that she was fine and not tired, in fact, after the acupuncture, she was really tired and her eyelids were getting very heavy. In the end, she couldnât hold on anymore. She lay on the edge of the bed and fell asleep.
Lucas didnât know at first.
Because of the treatment, he was lying on the bed with his upper body bare and his back facing Emily It was only when the time was up and he did not see Emily move that he became suspicious âDoctor Armstrong?â
He called out tentatively, but it was very quiet behind him. He couldnât help but look back. He saw Emily sleeping on the edge of the bed. For a moment, his eyes were filled with heartache. No matter how much he couldnât bear it, he still had to wake Emily up. After all, he didnât know how to pull out needles. âDoctor Armstrong, wake up.â Lucas sat up and raised his hand to push the little woman in front of him. This time, Emily barely opened her eyes, but her consciousness was still a little chaotic. Before she could react, she heard Lucas sigh, âDoctor Armstrong, I think you need to get an assistant.â
