After examining Xu Zhe, the family doctor prescribed some stomach medicine.
What's wrong with her?
Jiang Shuning, being a good sister-in-law, showed great concern for her sister-in-law and inquired about the doctor's condition.
"Stomach cramps," the doctor replied.
"Did you eat something bad?" Jiang Shuning, the good sister-in-law, continued her business.
"It's not related to unclean food; it's probably caused by excessive mental stress," the doctor replied.
Jiang Shuning nodded, but she was secretly overjoyed.
He was scared by his grandfather's scolding, hahaha...
After receiving the medicine, Xu Zhengxi fed it directly to Xu Zhe according to the dosage.
The joy that had just blossomed in Jiang Shuning's heart withered...
She's jealous! Is it really necessary to take such good care of someone?!
Recalling the way Xu Zhengxi and Xu Zhe were playfully fighting in the car on the day of Nancheng University's anniversary celebration, Jiang Shuning's amiable expression vanished.
She had suspected their relationship at the time, but her mother's investigation revealed that he was simply raising the child on behalf of Grandpa Xu.
But right now, his gentleness and thoughtfulness are so glaring; he has given all his warmth to this green tea bitch!
Jiang Shuning stood still. She had dressed up specially for the occasion, curling the ends of her hair and wearing contact lenses.
She has always been averse to having things placed on her eyes and has never worn contact lenses.
But in order to see him, she overcame her psychological barrier and pressed the soft membrane onto her eyeballs.
At that moment, she only felt that her eyes were dry and uncomfortable.
"Ms. Jiang, is there anything you need?" the doctor asked.
Jiang Shuning then came to her senses; Xu Zhengxi and Xu Zhe were no longer in the examination room.
Her eyes widened in anger, her sockets clenching so hard they seemed about to burst.
"Miss Jiang?" The doctor noticed her changed expression and couldn't help but worry.
"I'm fine, thank you." Jiang Shuning lowered her eyes and walked out of the consultation room.
Fortunately, she didn't chase him far before she saw Xu Zhengxi in the corridor.
His back was straight and his demeanor was outstanding, as he pushed a child in a wheelchair.
Jiang Shuning was about to follow when she saw Xu Zhengxi enter the room at the end of the corridor.
She walked over step by step, stood outside the tightly closed door, unsure whether to knock and go in or leave.
Jiang Shuning stood there for a long time, without moving.
She was calculating when Xu Zhengxi would go in, and the longer it took, the heavier her heart became.
Until a servant passed by.
Jiang Shuning disregarded all pretense of modesty and dignity, grabbing the person and asking:
Whose room is this?
The maid glanced at the door and said, "This is Young Master Xu's room."
A jumble of emotions welled up inside Jiang Shuning, but she didn't let go and continued to ask:
Where is Xu Zhe's room?
The maid thought about it carefully and shook her head: "I don't know."
Jiang Shuning slowly loosened his grip and let the person go.
They're sharing a room?!
Her head instantly exploded into pieces, like ruins after an air raid...
"Shuning." Someone called her from the other end of the corridor.
Jiang Shuning slowly turned her head away, her eyes like two black holes, devoid of any light.
Pei Li, at the other end of the corridor, said to her:
"Come with me."
Jiang Shuning was led by Pei Li like a puppet on a string.
......
In the room, Xu Zhe nestled in Xu Zhengxi's arms, letting him gently rub her stomach.
Her large, warm hands massaged her until she fell asleep.
When she woke up, she heard Xu Zhengxi talking to someone in the living room outside the bedroom.
"It's not a bad thing to be more careful; there are plenty of people who want to curry favor with the Jiang family."
It was the voice of his uncle, Pei Xun.
"I know, there are plans."
It was Hsu Cheng-hsi's voice.
Xu Zhe couldn't understand what they were saying, so he simply closed his eyes and continued to rest.
A moment later, I heard the door close and footsteps approaching the bed.
Xu Zhe opened his eyes.
"She's awake." Xu Zhengxi sat on the edge of the bed and leaned down to stroke her long hair.
"Hmm, Uncle is here?" Xu Zhe asked.
Xu Zhengxi's smile froze: "You heard that?"
Xu Zhe nodded: "I heard my uncle say to be careful, someone is trying to curry favor with the Jiang family."
"What's wrong?"
Xu Zhengxi's smile returned: "It's nothing, just some business. Does your stomach still hurt?"
Xu Zhe shook his head lazily.
Suddenly remembering something, her eyes widened:
"What will my uncle think when he sees us sleeping in the same room...?"
"What did you think?" Xu Zhengxi simply lay down beside her and pulled her into his arms.
“You thought we were in that kind of relationship!” Xu Zhe looked up, burrowing out of his arms to look at him.
Xu Zhengxi smiled and said, "That's what we've always been in."
Xu Zhe was furious: "That doesn't mean we can let others know we're in that kind of relationship!"
"Do you think Grandpa and Uncle don't know?"
Xu Zhengxi's lips pressed against her forehead, his lips constantly touching her delicate skin as he spoke, like a continuous kiss.
Xu Zhe was stunned. They... knew?
“If they didn’t know, they wouldn’t be targeting you like this today.” Xu Zhengxi continued to enjoy kissing her forehead.
"Then I..." Xu Zhe frowned, "Do I have to...?"
Xu Zhengxi moved his lips away, looking at the little face in his arms:
"Gah? What does that mean?"
Xu Zhe: "......"
Old man!
