Chapter 494 The Problematic Baby VS The Arrogant Guy Who Loves to Ask Questions 46

After he finished speaking, Lu Jingxun felt his heart race and didn't dare to look at her. He could only wait quietly for her answer.

He knew very well that this was a mistake he had made in the past, like a heavy debt that he always had to repay.

Regardless of Jiang Zhiyi's reaction, he had to accept it and then find a way to make amends to her, at least to prevent her from continuing down the wrong path.

He agrees to whatever she asks for now.

However, he waited for a long time but did not hear any sound; the surroundings were strangely quiet.

After a while, Lu Jingxun finally couldn't hold back any longer, turned his head, and secretly looked her over.

Jiang Zhiyi had her eyes closed and was breathing slowly and evenly, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep.

Lu Jingxun frowned; he had actually fallen asleep…

So she didn't hear what he just said at all?

For a moment, he felt both relieved and worried, but the sword of Damocles was still hanging over him, and he was unsure of what to do.

"Are you asleep?" Lu Jingxun leaned close to her ear and asked very softly.

The only response he received was Jiang Zhiyi's soft breathing.

Seeing this, Lu Jingxun could only give up for the time being and planned to find a suitable opportunity to confess to her next time.

...

The next morning, Jiang Zhiyi slept until the sun was high in the sky before waking up.

She instinctively tried to stretch, but as soon as she did, her whole body felt like it was falling apart, and she was in pain everywhere.

Last night... although Lu Jingxun seemed to have little experience and his movements were quite clumsy, his stamina was terrifyingly abundant.

She suffered a bit, and he tormented her until she was quite uncomfortable.

Jiang Zhiyi frowned, getting angrier the more she thought about it. She grabbed the pillow next to her and threw it forcefully.

Hearing the commotion, Lu Jingxun came into the house to check on her.

"Awake?" He sat down on the edge of the bed. "I've had breakfast prepared. Get up and eat."

He had changed into a clean and tidy outfit, a white shirt and black trousers, casual yet elegant.

There were several red marks on her neck, which she had accidentally scratched herself last night, and they looked particularly noticeable now.

Jiang Zhiyi turned her head and noticed a brand new set of women's clothing on the bedside table. She knew without a doubt that he had it prepared, which was quite thoughtful.

When Lu Jingxun saw that she was awake but not speaking, he didn't ask any questions and simply reached out and gently picked her up.

Jiang Zhiyi took the opportunity to act spoiled, her body limp and boneless as she clung to him. She simply didn't have the strength and didn't want to move, saying, "It's all your fault."

Lu Jingxun stroked her smooth hair on the back and coaxed, "Get up and eat first. If it hurts a lot..."

He coughed lightly, looking unusually uncomfortable. "Then I'll put some medicine on you later."

Jiang Zhiyi angrily punched his back hard, "I can't get up, I'm tired."

She complained.

"So you want to sleep a little longer?" Lu Jing asked.

After saying that, as if by magic, he took out a dazzling diamond necklace from his pocket and gently put it on her.

Before Jiang Zhiyi could react, she felt a cold touch on her neck.

She subconsciously looked down and saw a sparkling necklace hanging securely around her neck.

Its luster and texture clearly indicate that it is quite valuable.

"It's no use for you to give me this, I'm just tired..." Although she said that, Jiang Zhiyi's tone had softened. She touched and examined it for a while, and couldn't help but ask, "How much does this cost?"

Lu Jingxun looked at her and said, "Half a house."

Jiang Zhiyi exclaimed "Ah!" with surprise in her eyes. She never expected that such a small necklace would be worth so much money.

She then asked, "Will it depreciate in value? If I sell it later, will I still be able to get the same amount of money?"

I imagine this kind of thing is bound to result in a loss, and I don't even know how much.

Seeing that she had only worn it for two minutes and was already thinking about selling it, Lu Jingxun pretended to be angry and said, "You can't sell it."

Jiang Zhiyi hummed a few times, "It's too expensive, and I can't wear it out, I'm afraid of breaking it. I would like it if it were cash. Gold would be fine too, gold won't depreciate."

Lu Jingxun observed her reaction. Although she said she didn't like it, her hands kept touching it, clearly showing how much she cherished it.

"Then I'll give you more money. Anyway, keep the necklace safe; it won't break."

They've really fallen for money.

Hearing his words, Jiang Zhiyi was finally satisfied. Now she had the strength again, and she happily hugged him, her lips brushing against his face, "I like you."

I also like your money.

"Okay, good girl," Lu Jing responded.

After that, the two didn't waste any time and went straight back to the countryside by car.

The sun wasn't too strong yet, and as the car drove along the winding country lanes, a gentle breeze blew in through the windows, carrying a slight coolness.

Seeing this, Lu Jingxun reached out and gently draped a piece of clothing over Jiang Zhiyi.

She's much more considerate than before.

Jiang Zhiyi didn't say anything, she just squinted and leaned back in her seat.

When Jiang Zhiyi returned home, Jiang Qiujin and Jiang Qiuyin were sitting on small stools, enjoying their corn.

The two little ones held the corn cobs tightly in their hands, poking at the kernels with their tiny fingers from time to time, their faces covered in corn, with a few kernels still stuck to the corners of their mouths. They looked very cute.

"Sister, where did you go yesterday?" Jiang Qiujin, with her sharp eyes, immediately shouted as soon as she spotted Jiang Zhiyi.

The two men, without even putting down the corn in their hands, ran towards her.

Although they were eager, they remembered to be hygienic. Their little hands, covered in corn paste, withdrew just before touching Jiang Zhiyi's pretty dress.

"Your sister strolled around the county town. Did you all behave well after you got home yesterday?" Jiang Zhiyi asked gently, squatting down with a smile.

"We were very obedient! We didn't run around anywhere." Jiang Qiuyin answered quickly, a hint of pride in her expression.

They were very well-behaved the whole way.

They knew that they had to listen to the adults when they were outside, otherwise they might be kidnapped by bad guys.

"Great! Did you miss your sister when you went to sleep last night?" Jiang Zhiyi patted their little heads.

"I miss it! I can't sleep because I miss it so much, and I also want to eat the jelly my sister bought," Jiang Qiujin said in her childish voice.

Jiang Zhiyi couldn't help but laugh.

They certainly have a sweet tooth.

At this moment, Wang Huilan came out of the house and stood at the door, saying, "Have you had breakfast? I left some food for you."

"I ate." Jiang Zhiyi stood up and nodded.

However, she ate it in the car.

Originally, Jiang Zhiyi planned to eat there and then come back, but she was a little anxious and wanted to go home as soon as possible.

I only woke up in the morning, and if I was delayed any longer, I might not get back until almost noon.

At that time, Lu Jingxun went along with her without saying anything and directly arranged for someone to bring the breakfast to the car.

Jiang Zhiyi stood in the courtyard and couldn't help but glance at the Lu family's house.

Although only this morning has passed, she has already clearly felt that Lu Jingxun's attitude has changed a lot.

Perhaps it was because their relationship had progressed further last night, but she also had a feeling that he had done something wrong and wanted to make amends to her.

Jiang Zhiyi shook her head, stopped thinking about it, and went back to her room to organize the things she had bought yesterday.
