She was the Xu family’s designated eldest grandson’s daughter-in-law, but after a bitter broken engagement, the mysterious Lu family’s crown prince appeared. “The Xu family doesn’t want y...
The two of them each carried a large food box, containing enough food for several people to eat together.
This was also arranged by Madam Lu. Judging from her behavior this afternoon, she treated Xu Rubao like her future daughter-in-law.
However, Cheng Meilin didn't believe it. She thought that as long as one had perseverance, even an iron rod could be ground into a needle, and she wouldn't give up so easily.
As Xu Rubao drank her soup, she felt a little uncomfortable looking at Cheng Meilin's attentive manner.
She felt that her thinking was a bit petty, but she just couldn't control herself.
Especially considering that Cheng Meilin had hugged him before, wasn't he supposed to be a germaphobe? He was just lying after all.
Xu Rubao found the food tasteless and couldn't help but reach out with his chopsticks to see if the drunken goose Cheng Meilin had prepared for him really tasted that good.
However, as soon as she reached for her chopsticks, Lu Jingheng slapped them back.
You can't eat it.
"Why can't I eat it? Lu Jingheng, you're a grown man, why are you being so stingy?"
Xu Rubao looked at him with a petty look in her eyes. Lu Jingheng sighed slightly, "You have wounds on your body. Goose meat is hot and dry, and it's a food that can aggravate wound healing."
Xu Rubao snorted coldly, clearly showing that she was unhappy.
She's not feeling well right now, and Lu Jingheng doesn't want to upset her.
He thought for a moment, "Then I won't eat it either, is that okay? Lanlan, take this drunken goose away from me."
Lu Jinglan looked at them and couldn't help but smile. Ru Bao really knew how to handle things. Didn't her brother obediently give in?
"Okay, I'll take it. You guys can eat slowly. There's still plenty of food left."
Lu Jingheng watched as the drunken goose was taken away, then glanced at Xu Rubao, "Now you're willing to eat obediently, right?"
Seeing that he had nothing to eat either, Xu Rubao felt a little better.
Cheng Meilin watched from the side, feeling extremely angry.
Does Xu Rubao really think he's something special?
Was she doing it on purpose, deliberately showing off in front of her?
Cheng Meilin was truly unwilling. Seeing the two of them eating, she poured Lu Jingheng a bowl of soup.
"Jingheng, you've worked hard too, have some more soup."
Lu Jingheng could tell that Xu Rubao was not happy, and he didn't want to upset her.
"Meilin, no need to trouble yourself, I can do it myself."
After saying that, Lu Jingheng made no move to take the soup from her hand.
Standing there, Cheng Meilin couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Before she knew it, the soup had spilled onto her own hands.
The soup was cooked and then stored in a thermos, so it was still quite hot.
Cheng Meilin saw her hands turn red instantly and couldn't help but scream.
Seeing that she had spilled soup and her hand was red, Lu Jingheng quickly put down his chopsticks, grabbed her hand, and pulled her into the bathroom to flush the soup.
"Lanlan, call the doctor."
Lu Jinglan had just finished preparing that poor drunken goose when she came in and saw that Cheng Meilin's hands were red from the burn.
"Is Meilin's hand alright? I'll go right now."
Cheng Meilin watched as Lu Jingheng held her hand and pressed it under the faucet.
It used to hurt quite a bit, but now it doesn't hurt as much, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
She wasn't completely without a place in Lu Jingheng's heart.
Lu Jingheng held her hand and rinsed it for a while, then let go of her hand. "I'll have the doctor take care of you in a bit. You should be fine."
"Brother Jingheng, thank you, you're so kind."
