Chapter 523 A Dead End

Huo Zhixing slowly opened his eyes, saw his little wife in his arms, and couldn't help but smile, gently kissing her forehead.

Jiang Can stirred, turned over, and continued sleeping.

Huo Zhixing hugged her with some heartache. He had been too greedy last night and had exhausted her. He needed to let her rest properly today.

He held her close, completely content, ignoring his son's cries from the next room.

Anyway, with several nannies taking care of him, he won't be shortchanged.

Jiang Can vaguely heard her son's voice, and her eyelids twitched. Just as she was about to wake up, Huo Zhixing pulled the blanket off and covered her with it!

"...Um, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Huo Zhixing grinned mischievously from under the covers. "I was afraid you'd be cold, so I covered you up with more blankets."

"Is Junyu awake?"

"No!" Huo Zhixing retorted, "Our son didn't cry. You must have been dreaming! Listen now, is there any sound?"

Jiang Can was still half asleep. After listening carefully and finding no movement, she closed her eyes again and snuggled into his arms, falling fast asleep.

Huo Zhixing laughed, tiptoed out of bed, and went to check on the nursery next door.

The nannies are all doing their jobs very well, and they are currently preparing formula to feed Xiao Junyu.

Relieved, he tiptoed back to the room, lifted the covers, lay down, and hugged his wife tightly.

Just as he was about to take a nap, his phone vibrated again. He lowered his voice to answer, but the voice on the other end was quite loud.

"Brother-in-law, come out for a drink with me!"

Huo Zhixing was speechless: "What are you drinking so early in the morning? Besides, is your hand even healed? Don't you know you should avoid certain foods while you're injured?"

A light scoff came from the other end of the phone: "The way you're talking now, you're starting to sound more and more like your father-in-law."
