Chapter 210 Can He Do It?

Just then, Li Hongxing opened his eyes.

The two locked eyes.

Zhou Fangfang felt a pang of embarrassment. She coughed and said, "Good morning."

"morning."

After saying that, Zhou Fangfang got up and got dressed. Dressing in front of Li Hongxing made her feel very uncomfortable. Strangely enough, she and Li Hongxing used to sleep together, but they never woke up together, so she never felt anything.

This was the first time they had gotten up together.

There was always an awkwardness between the two of them.

By this time, Li Hongxing's mother had already gotten up early and prepared the meal. She steamed a whole drawer full of buns filled with cabbage and pork, which smelled delicious. She also made soy milk, the rich aroma of which filled the air and made one's mouth water.

Li Hongxing's mother said, "Come and eat!"

"good."

Zhou Fangfang walked over.

During the meal, she didn't look at Li Hongxing; she just wanted to finish her food quickly.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere between the two, Li Hongxing's mother was delighted. She shouted, "What's wrong with you two? Something seems off between you. Did you sleep together last night?"

Li Hongxing put down the water and suddenly started coughing.

Zhou Fangfang was also at a loss for words.

This way of sleeping is very spiritual.

sleep?

How do you sleep? How should you sleep? Is it just sleeping? Probably not, otherwise why would she only think of asking about this today when she sleeps with Li Hongxing every day?

Li Hongxing has injured his body, so how can he sleep? He probably doesn't have that ability anymore.

Zhou Fangfang lowered her head and said, "Mom, you're overthinking it."

Li Hongxing's mother was unhappy: "How could I be overthinking this? Besides, you are Hongxing's wife. It's normal for you to sleep together. You can't expect Hongxing to be a monk for the rest of his life."

"I think you two have developed a good relationship. Anyway, you're going to be Hongxing's wife, so this is perfectly normal."

Li Hongxing said speechlessly, "Mom, can you please not say this? And please don't speak so loudly."

The neighbor could hear her voice.

"Pah! If I hadn't reminded you, you probably would never have touched her in your entire life. This time, I forced her to share a room with you; otherwise, I bet you would be sleeping in the woodshed."

Li Hongxing: "..."

He didn't dare to argue; he had actually considered clearing out the woodshed so he could live there alone.

Li Hongxing's mother said, "Luckily I'm here, otherwise you would have been single for life with your blockhead. If you don't get it, let me tell you, your wife will run off with another man."

Zhou Fangfang: "..."

As she listened to these words, she lowered her head, not knowing what to say, and felt very embarrassed.

But she found it strange. Wasn't Li Hongxing injured and unable to have children? How could he still sleep with her?

She planned to marry Li Hongxing, but she thought they could only be a platonic couple. Actually, that was fine too. They were husband and wife, friends, and could build a good life together. That would be the best life. As for whether Li Hongxing was suitable, she didn't care.

She felt that Li Hongxing was a good person and that she could be his soulmate.

But……

From what they said, Li Hongxing...

After dinner, Zhou Fangfang went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Li Hongxing went to help her and said helplessly, "That's just how my mom is. Don't take what she says to heart. She just doesn't keep her mouth shut, but she's not a bad person at heart."

Zhou Fangfang nodded: "I know, she's a good person, she's very good to me and my son, I understand all of that."

Hearing her say that, Li Hongxing breathed a sigh of relief: "It's great that you can understand."

Zhou Fangfang paused for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "But there's something I'm curious about. Weren't you injured and supposed to be in critical condition? Then why did your mother say that you..."

Li Hongxing: "?"

His eyes widened, and his previous composure vanished. He hurriedly explained, "It's not that I'm incapable, it's just that I can't have children."

"Huh?" Zhou Fangfang couldn't understand it at all. She wanted to ask a few more questions, but the topic was too sensitive to ask.

Besides, Li Hongxing must have been very sad after being injured, and she couldn't very well expose his shortcomings, so she remained silent.

She continued washing the dishes, water flowing over her hands, her hands soaking in the icy water, and she began to space out.

Li Hongxing said, "The water is too cold, it's not good for washing dishes. Next time you need to wash dishes, heat the water first."

"Okay," Zhou Fangfang said, bowing her head.

After saying that, she realized how extravagant she had become. She used to feel bad about wasting firewood when she used to boil water, but after only a few days of marriage to Li Hongxing, she had already started to get used to a life of luxury.

Perhaps Li Hongxing was too good to her; this man was indeed very good, the best person she could ever meet.

Zhou Fangfang said, "We are husband and wife, so we can give it a try."

After saying that, she clenched her hands, feeling her heart pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her chest. She looked up at Li Hongxing and found that he was looking at her too, and he didn't look much better than her.

Li Hongxing's face also turned a little red.

Finally, Li Hongxing left because he needed to go to the military camp.

As Zhou Fangfang watched his departing figure, even though she knew he would be back that night, a sense of loss still welled up inside her.

She found herself somewhat reluctant to part with Li Hongxing, and she didn't know when she had developed this habit. Perhaps it was because Li Hongxing had spent so much time with her that she felt this way.

"Mom, I want to go out and play today." Just then, her son ran in.

My chubby son, with sparkling eyes, said, "I made so many new friends! We made plans to play today, Mom, can I go out?"

Zhou Fangfang nodded: "Of course, I'll prepare some things for you to share."

The son had practically no friends in the village because he had a low social standing and Wang Dazhi didn't like them. So, the villagers naturally paid little attention to him and rarely bothered with him. He mostly played with ants. Now that he had new friends, that was wonderful.

Zhou Fangfang then made more than a dozen corn cakes for her son to take with him so he could share them with his friends. Her son was obviously very happy and left with a basket.

She knew that her son was able to make new friends because of Li Hongxing.

Having a different father is definitely a good thing.
