Chapter 19 You're Going to Die



Butler Liu waved his hand, "Young Madam, a moment of bliss is worth a thousand pieces of gold. You and the young master should hurry up and get some sleep."

He deliberately emphasized the last two words.

Lin Xi slammed the window shut.

I have to admit, Butler Liu is truly a talented individual!

Butler Liu patted his tie, his smile unchanged.

The fifth professional quality of a housekeeper is to be observant and attentive to others' predictions.

Butler Liu touched the last tuft of hair he had left and sighed deeply.

Tonight is another sleepless night.

He encouraged himself.

For the young master, for the young mistress, and for the soon-to-be-born little master and little lady, let's keep going!

Inside the room, Lin Xi glanced back at Fu Jingyao, and the two fell silent again.

This was too awkward. Lin Xi yawned. "I'll sleep for the first half of the night, and you sleep for the second half. Wake me up when it's time."

"good."

Fu Jingyao turned off the light and pretended to look at his phone, but he was actually distracted, his gaze constantly drawn to the person on the bed.

A thought popped into my head: spending the rest of my life with Lin Xi seemed like a very interesting idea.

Why would he think that?

Fu Jingyao was in a daze.

Lin Xi pulled the blanket over her head and slept until dawn.

Half-asleep, she subconsciously asked, "Xiao Jin, what time is it?"

"It's 7:30, you can sleep for another ten minutes."

"Um?"

Lin Xi suddenly sensed something was wrong; Xiao Jin's voice had changed.

She sat up abruptly, memories of last night flooding back.

Lin Xi looked at the man in the corner, "Fu Jingyao, why didn't you call me?"

Fu Jingyao said in a calm tone, "There were a few important things to deal with at the company last night, and since you were sleeping soundly, I didn't wake you up."

The man remained standing ramrod straight, his eyes fixed straight ahead.

Lin Xi asked in surprise, "You stood there all night?"

Fu Jingyao gave a faint "hmm," and said, "Lin Xi, I'll go downstairs now."

He walked to the door, pushed it gently, and the door opened.

Lin Xi sat on the bed, her heart inexplicably pounding harder.

Damn it!

She shouldn't have let Fu Jingyao stay up all night!

Linxi has always been a light sleeper.

If attacked by a person or ghost, the brain will be forcibly activated, the body will automatically defend itself, and a berserk fighting mode will be activated.

Strangely, she slept very soundly last night, but woke up this morning feeling refreshed, with every pore on her body open.

Lin Xi got up, washed up, and went downstairs.

Zhang Wenxiu waved, "Lin Xi, come and have breakfast."

"Thank you, Grandma."

Lin Xi took the bowl of porridge and buried herself in eating.

Zhang Wenxiu glanced at Fu Jingyao, then at Lin Xi, her expression turning strange.

What's going on?

After a night, Lin Xi was still full of energy, but Fu Jingyao looked wilted like a frostbitten eggplant, with dark circles under his eyes.

Zhang Wenxiu was shocked.

Her grandson is no good!

Zhang Wenxiu forced a stiff smile. "Well, you guys eat first."

She dragged Fu Jianhua out of the restaurant, saying, "Old Fu, buy some more supplements for Jingyao to nourish him. Look at how the child is doing."

Fu Jianhua and she exchanged a glance, their expressions very complicated.

"I will immediately instruct Steward Liu to buy medicine."

Not far away, Butler Liu gave an "OK" sign.

Everything is settled.

Fu Jianhua and Zhang Wenxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Hopefully the medicine will work, and hopefully Lin Xi won't despise their grandson.

Lin Xi finished her meal.

The two elderly people looked at her with even more affection, and then it happened in just a few minutes.

Fu Jingyao was waiting for her in front of the car.

"let's go."

"Oh, here it comes."

Lin Xi got into the car and fastened her seatbelt. "Where are we going?"

Fu Jingyao spoke slowly and deliberately, "Our home."

Maybach left the Mountain and Water Villa and headed to his residence, Imperial Garden.

Imperial Garden is a top-tier villa community with a Western-style architectural design, created by world-renowned architects.

Fu Jingyao stopped the car and remembered what his grandmother had told him.

He opened the trunk, and a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine wafted out.

Fu Jingyao asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why is Grandma putting in so much Chinese medicine?"

"I've studied traditional Chinese medicine, so I've come to take a look."

Lin Xi looked closely and exclaimed, "Goji berries, ginseng, cynomorium, cistanche, deer antler..."

"Uh..." she told the truth, "These are all medicines to replenish kidney qi, and also..."

"I'm not sick!"

Fu Jingyao's face darkened instantly. He slammed the car door shut and strode away.

Lin Xi touched her nose and walked into the villa.

This place isn't as big as Shanshui Bieju, but it's closer to the city center, and there's an open space in front of and behind the door, perfect for growing vegetables.

Fu Jingyao said, "I like peace and quiet. There is a cleaning lady here who cleans regularly, and Aunt Wu comes over every day to cook two meals. If you need, I can ask Aunt Wu to live here and take care of you."

Lin Xi waved her hand, "No need, I also like peace and quiet."

“Okay.” Fu Jingyao introduced each place to her one by one. “Lin Xi, you’ll stay in this room.”

Lin Xi had no objection. "Okay, you don't need to lead the way. Go and rest."

Fu Jingyao paused for two seconds, then said, "Lin Xi, if you want to..."

Lin Xi pushed open the door to the room, turned around and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"nothing."

Fu Jingyao turned and went into the next room.

It would be awkward for him and his wife to share a bed with a complete stranger they don't know well after getting married, so it's better for them to live separately.

Lin Xi looked around her room.

White and pink tones, a straight man's aesthetic.

It had everything inside, and the toilet was twice the size of the dilapidated house she rented.

Lin Xi opened the wardrobe to put things away and suddenly saw a wardrobe full of dresses.

Holy crap! A whole row of all kinds of skirts, either white or pink.
