Chapter 74 "I'll have to work hard tonight"

When He Chi returned home and opened the door, he smelled a faint scent of Chinese medicine in the house.

The smell is not bad.

He waited for He Xiaohui to slowly walk in, then closed the door and went to the kitchen to take a look. "Aunt Zhang, what are you cooking?"

Aunt Zhang smiled mysteriously at He Chi, "This is a good thing given by the old lady. She specially asked me to make soup for you to drink to nourish your bodies."

He Chi: “…”

He watched from the side for a while, pursed his lips, and said, "Aunt Zhang, are you sure you won't ruin your health by drinking so much?"

"How could that be? It's just an ordinary tonic soup." Aunt Zhang told him directly, "Actually, the old lady is just anxious to have a great-grandson."

She smiled at He Chi and said, "You know."

To reassure He Chi, Aunt Zhang added, "It's okay. It's just a normal tonic soup. If you get sick from it, ask me to reimburse your medical expenses."

He Chi said seriously, "Aunt Zhang, Yining is weak. I'm afraid she won't be able to handle the nourishing soup you gave her all at once."

Aunt Zhang smiled at him and said, "I have considered this. Don't worry, I have controlled the amount."

He Chi was still worried, "Is it ready to drink? Give me a bowl to try."

Aunt Zhang filled a bowl for him and said with a smile, "You and your father both love your wife. Loving your wife is good. Men who love their wives will never have bad luck."

Hearing this, He Chi laughed and said modestly, "I still need to learn from Teacher He in this regard."

He finished a bowl and after about ten minutes he felt that there was nothing wrong except that his body felt a little hot.

But he was sure he wouldn't be able to drink the soup later.

Jiang Yining probably won't be back so soon.

He Chi planned to take He Xiaohui to the community track to run for a while. He Xiaohui had gained a lot of weight because of Jiang Yining, and he was worried that He Xiaohui would get sick if he didn't exercise.

Jiang Yining returned to Yuhubancheng at almost 7:30. She walked towards her home and happened to meet He Chi and He Xiaohui.

As soon as he saw Jiang Yining, He Xiaohui ran towards her and meowed loudly a few times beside her.

She looked at the man walking towards her slowly, and saw a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, knowing that he had just finished running.

He Xiaohui was still howling.

Jiang Yining listened to He Xiaohui's protest, but was powerless to do anything.

She squatted down and patted its head soothingly. "Baby, you've gained a little weight recently. I'll give you some dried fish tonight."

When He Xiaohui heard that there was dried fish to eat, he finally stopped howling. He hid beside Jiang Yining and refused to stand next to He Chi.

Seeing this, He Chi raised his eyebrows.

He felt it necessary to talk to Jiang Yining, "It's not good to spoil this lazy cat too much. It's almost rebellious lately."

As He Chi was speaking, He Xiaohui rushed out like crazy.

Jiang Yining was so confused that he didn't have time to stop it.

He Chi looked over and saw that He Xiaohui, who had just looked reluctant to move, was now fighting with the Persian cat downstairs.

The owner of the Persian cat was a girl about the same age as Jiang Yining. He Xiaohui suddenly rushed over and almost scared her to death.

He Chi seriously went to arrest He Xiaohui and said sternly, "He Xiaohui, no fighting."

Jiang Yining also reacted and apologized to the girl, "I'm sorry, I didn't scare you."

The owner of the Persian cat recognized He Xiaohui when she saw He Chi. This was the blue cat. It was so pitiful. After failing to snatch a female cat from her cat, it was taken to be sterilized by its owner.

She smiled at Jiang Yining, "I'm fine."

Fortunately, the other party didn't care. Jiang Yining breathed a sigh of relief and went home with He Chi and the stubborn He Xiaohui.

After returning home, Jiang Yining smelled a fragrance, "What did Aunt Zhang cook? It smells so good."

"Soup." He Chi didn't know how to explain it to her, "Try to drink less later."

He had tasted the soup before and it tasted really good. He knew Jiang Yining's potential as a foodie and knew that he would definitely not be able to control his mouth later.

He Xiaohui walked past He Chi's feet in a haughty manner and curled up in his little nest in a bad mood.

The couple fell silent as they looked at He Xiaohui's figure.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Yining looked up at He Chi and said, "Actually, you shouldn't take He Xiaohui to be neutered. It might hurt his self-esteem."

It's no use regretting it now, this thing can't be put back.

After all, it was a cat he raised, so He Chi felt sorry for He Xiaohui. "It's okay, I'll take some dried fish to comfort it.

"I'll go check online later to see if there's a stuffed animal that looks like the Persian cat I saw earlier and buy one for it."

Jiang Yining went to wash her hands before eating. She walked into the kitchen and said with a smile, "Aunt Zhang, the soup you made smells so good."

"Then drink two more bowls later to replenish your body."

Jiang Yining was a little puzzled, "He Chi just told me to drink less."

Aunt Zhang shook her head and smiled. "He Chi," she said to Jiang Yining, "He Chi is just worrying for no reason. This is just an ordinary tonic soup, I just added a little bit of Chinese medicine. Look how worried he is."

"Yining, it's okay. If you like, drink two more bowls."

Jiang Yining was already greedy, she curled her lips and smiled, "Okay."

After He Chi coaxed He Xiaohui, he washed his hands and went to the dining table. He saw that Jiang Yining's bowl was empty, but he was still being coaxed by Aunt Zhang to continue drinking.

After Aunt Zhang left, He Chi said, "You can't drink anymore after this bowl. I drank half a bowl before going downstairs for a run, and my body is getting hotter and hotter."

Jiang Yining hadn’t read so many romance novels in vain over the years, and she immediately understood what He Chi meant.

She frowned and looked at her half-empty bowl, "This is my third bowl."

He Chi: “…”

Seeing that Jiang Yining's small face had begun to turn red, He Chi didn't know whether to laugh or what for a moment.

Jiang Yining asked him worriedly, "What should I do?"

Hearing this, He Chi couldn't help but laugh, "What can I do? I'll have to work hard tonight. It seems I have to drink another bowl."

Jiang Yining: “…”

She glared at He Chi angrily, wondering how he could have the time to say such things at this time.

But Jiang Yining felt that his body had no other symptoms except that it felt a little warm, so he drank all the soup in the bowl without believing it.

He Chi looked at her with a hint of amusement in his dark eyes, and said something that was particularly provocative, "Don't just drink the soup. Soup alone won't fill you up. Eat more meat so you can have strength tonight."

Jiang Yining turned around in panic to see if Aunt Zhang had come over. Her face was burning hot. She didn't know if it was because of the soup or because of He Chi's meaningful words.

This dinner was particularly difficult.

After finally finishing the meal, Jiang Yining hurried back to the study to deal with the remaining work.

After Aunt Zhang left, He Chi went back to the master bedroom bathroom to take a shower.

He didn't want to drink any more soup, but with Aunt Zhang staring at him from behind, He Chi reluctantly drank half a bowl.

In the study, Jiang Yining was almost finishing her work. She had some sweat on her forehead. She thought it was a problem with the air conditioner, but when she looked up, she saw that the air conditioner temperature was 24 degrees Celsius.

Jiang Yining touched his cheeks with both hands, and they were also very hot.

Is it because of Aunt Zhang’s soup?

She didn't feel anything before and thought He Chi was bluffing her.

After quickly finishing the work, Jiang Yining couldn't stand it anymore, so she packed up her things and walked out of the study.
