Chapter 150 Her face wasn't painted, but she was more beautiful than any flower.

Xia Yuhuan was surprised to find that Chi Yanzhou was so observant that he could directly detect her emotional changes.

Seeing her like this, Chi Yanzhou's heart sank: it seems that something really happened, causing his wife to be in a bad mood.

"Ayu, if you're unhappy, just rest. I'm fine, and I'm not very hungry, so we don't need to eat anything for now," Chi Yanzhou said softly.

Xia Yuhuan snapped out of her daze and stepped forward to help Chi Yanzhou sit up.

After Chi Yanzhou sat up against the headboard, Xia Yuhuan said calmly, "It's okay. What's done is done. Even if you're unhappy, it won't change anything."

"I'm just feeling a bit down and not in a good mood, but it won't affect my ability to take care of you."

As she spoke, she said, "Wait a moment, I'll go downstairs and bring you your lunch."

Chi Yanzhou watched her departing figure and couldn't help but purse his lips.

How can his wife be so good?

Even though she herself was unhappy, she still took good care of him.

She's so wonderful, he's even less willing to let her go.

Now, all he hopes is that he can keep his wife by his side through persistent and relentless pursuit.

No, my wife likes his face, so maybe I can use his good looks as a weapon?

Chi Yanzhou's mind was in turmoil, and he eventually jumped to the topic of things that made Xia Yuhuan unhappy.

So what exactly happened to make your wife unhappy?

When Xia Yuhuan came downstairs to get lunch, Zhang Xianya and Chi Shaokang were washing dishes in the kitchen. They were a little surprised to see her come down.

"Xiao Huan, didn't you go upstairs to rest? Why are you back down?"

“Yan Zhou is awake. I’ll bring him lunch upstairs,” Xia Yuhuan said.

"I'll bring Yanzhou his meal. Daughter, you can go sit down and rest," Chi Shaokang said.

Xia Jianyong ran away. Although he didn't let him escape, he did so through the hands of his subordinates. He felt extremely guilty about this and always wanted to be good to Xia Yuhuan and do more to make up for his guilt.

Xia Yuhuan could naturally sense Chi Shaokang's guilt.

She said, "Dad, you didn't do Xia Jianyong's escape, it has nothing to do with you, you don't need to feel so guilty."

"Besides, he's only temporarily on the run. I believe your men are no pushovers, and with Uncle Yan around, they'll definitely catch Xia Jianyong."

So don't be too hard on yourself, relax.

Upon hearing this, Chi Shaokang felt even more guilty.

How can this child be so sensible?

Even though she was heartbroken herself, she was still considerately thinking about his feelings.

That damned Xia Jianyong, it's all his fault. If he hadn't struggled so desperately, this wouldn't have happened.

In the end, Xia Yuhuan persuaded Chi Shaokang to stay, and she carried the porridge upstairs herself.

"Can you eat by yourself? Do you have the strength in your hands? Do you want me to feed you?" Xia Yuhuan sat down on the edge of the bed and asked.

Chi Yanzhou subconsciously said, "My hands still don't have much strength, I..."

He had only spoken halfway when he suddenly remembered that Xia Yuhuan was in a low mood.

He originally intended to show weakness and take the opportunity to get closer to his wife.

But his wife is in a bad mood right now. If he does this, won't he be holding her back?

He quickly changed his tune: "Yes, I'm strong enough to eat by myself. Give me the bowl."

As he spoke, he reached out to Xia Yuhuan, as if he wanted to take the bowl and chopsticks himself.

Xia Yuhuan didn't give it to her, saying, "Never mind, I'll feed you. You just woke up, so don't spill the bowl if you can't hold it properly."

As she spoke, she directly brought the spoon to Chi Yanzhou's lips.

Chi Yanzhou had no choice but to open his mouth and eat the porridge.

He secretly regretted that he shouldn't have said those things to try and get closer to his wife.

His wife is feeling unwell right now, and he still has to take care of her. He's really going too far!

Thinking about it, Chi Yanzhou asked, "Ayu, what happened that made you unhappy?"

Xia Yuhuan didn't hide anything from him, and said calmly, "Today we tried to arrest Xia Jianyong, but he got away. I'm a little annoyed."

Chi Yanzhou naturally knew why Xia Jianyong needed to be arrested.

After all, he wasn't actually unconscious for a long time and only conscious for a short time; that was just him lying to Xia Yuhuan.

Upon hearing this, he frowned and asked, "Who led the arrest? How could they have escaped?"

No wonder my wife is unhappy.

Xia Jianyong is the culprit who ruined the Xia family, the main culprit. He ran away, and it would be a miracle if his wife was happy.

"I don't know. When Dad received the news, Uncle Yan was also there. Upon hearing this, he immediately went to help arrest the person."

Xia Yuhuan sighed as she spoke, "Uncle Yan left before he had even eaten. I tried to persuade him, but I couldn't. I feel really bad about it."

Chi Yanzhou said, "Uncle Yan is very capable. With Uncle Yan on the case, we will definitely be able to catch Xia Jianyong. He won't get away. Don't worry too much, wife."

He couldn't help but feel resentful: it's a pity he just woke up and his body hasn't fully recovered yet, otherwise he would definitely catch that bastard Xia Jianyong himself and make his wife happy.

"Hmm, I'm not worried. I'm just wondering how Xia Jianyong managed to escape at the crucial moment of the arrest? Did someone tip him off?" Xia Yuhuan frowned.

Logically speaking, Chi Shaokang should have already figured out the people around Xia Jianyong and his network of relationships after having sent people to keep an eye on him for so long.

Chi Shaokang has obtained sufficient evidence against all relevant individuals involved in the case and those with questionable conduct.

When Xia Jianyong is arrested, they will definitely be arrested at the same time.

They are all struggling to protect themselves, so they certainly have no time to care about Xia Jianyong.

But Xia Jianyong just ran away.

This puzzled her greatly.

Chi Yanzhou said in a low voice, "If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it anymore. You'll know once we catch them."

Xia Yuhuan hummed in agreement and focused on feeding Chi Yanzhou.

Chi Yanzhou obediently cooperated with the meal, and seeing that her brows had finally relaxed, he felt relieved.

After Chi Yanzhou finished eating, Xia Yuhuan took the bowl downstairs before going upstairs.

Although the two were husband and wife, Chi Yanzhou secretly harbored feelings for Xia Yuhuan, but Xia Yuhuan was unaware of it.

To Xia Yuhuan, Chi Yanzhou is now a stranger who is nominally her husband.

He was asleep before, so she was free to do whatever she wanted in the room. But now that he's awake, she feels a bit constrained in the presence of him.

In short... I felt very uncomfortable.

Seeing her so uncomfortable, Chi Yanzhou felt a little anxious.

He wanted to find something to talk about with Xia Yuhuan, so that the two of them wouldn't just sit there awkwardly staring at each other.

But for a moment, he couldn't think of any good topics.

You're so dense, hurry up and think of something! Say something!

Xia Yuhuan felt somewhat embarrassed when she saw Chi Yanzhou staring at her without saying a word.

She coughed lightly: "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

Chi Yanzhou blinked and said, "Your face isn't covered in smears, but it looks even better than if it were."

"Ayu, has anyone ever told you that you are beautiful?"

Xia Yuhuan: "..."
