Looking at the girl's adoring expression, Lu Mo's heart softened, his eyes grew more tender, and his cold expression softened considerably, though he himself didn't realize it.
"Don't go up the mountain again!" Lu Mo said coldly.
Ye Qingqing pouted, "No, I still need to earn money."
"I'll give you the money!"
Lu Mo took out a brand new wad of cash from his pocket, which Lin Shufang had withdrawn that morning.
Ye Qingqing blinked, feeling a warm glow in her heart, but she couldn't accept the money. Lu Mo and Lin Shufang both earned fixed salaries, and the money wasn't much. Besides, she hadn't married into the family yet, so it was inappropriate for her to spend Lu Mo's money now!
"No, I can earn my own money, I don't need you to support me!"
Ye Qingqing flatly refused. Seeing Lu Mo's displeasure, she rolled her eyes, leaned closer, and said mischievously, "I'm not your mistress, I don't need you to support me!"
A mouthful of blood rushed to Lu Mo's head, and he almost had a burst blood vessel. He glared angrily at Ye Qingqing.
"Speak properly!"
Ye Qingqing pouted, "I didn't say anything wrong. I'm not married to you yet, so I can't take your money. After we get married, you'll definitely have to hand over your entire salary. You're not allowed to keep a single penny!"
"This is the funding for the experiment!"
Lu Mo interrupted her, saying that if this girl continued to ramble on, she might even bring up the child.
His chest heaved; having a child… having a child with Ye Qingqing…
Lu Mo turned his head away, his neck burning hot. He couldn't let this girl see it, or she would definitely make fun of him!
Ye Qingqing did not take the money. She walked over and rolled up Lu Mo's trouser leg. He looked even paler. His external injuries had improved a lot. She had been researching methods to treat his leg for the past two days. Before tendon reattachment, she had to give the injured leg acupuncture and massage to keep the leg muscles active. Otherwise, the tendon reattachment would be ineffective.
"I'll give you a massage first. You need to have a massage every day, and you'll also need acupuncture."
As Ye Qingqing massaged, she explained, recalling the diagrams in the book. She followed the meridians down little by little, her delicate white hands covered with scars, just like the injuries on Lu Mo's legs, which was heartbreaking to see.
"Give me the money, or don't press it," Lu Mo said deliberately.
Ye Qingqing looked up and glared at him, then said fiercely, "Don't I have a name?"
Lu Mo looked embarrassed, realizing he was indeed in the wrong, and changed his words to "Ye Qingqing".
"Why call me by my full name? It doesn't sound good!"
Ye Qingqing pouted unhappily, reached up and pinched Lu Mo's uninjured spot with her fingernail. "Hmph, if he doesn't understand romance, I'll slowly train him. I'll start by calling his name."
Lu Mo's chest heaved again as her smooth little hand touched his thigh, sending a familiar electric shock through him, a tingling, numb sensation.
This girl actually touched his thigh!
That's so unladylike!
Lu Mo tried to pull his leg back, but someone grabbed it. Ye Qingqing looked at him triumphantly, with a 'what can you do to me?' look on her face. Lu Mo glared at her helplessly and gave in, calling out, 'Qingqing.'
As soon as he said it, Lu Mo blushed. It seemed too intimate, like a term of endearment between lovers.
Ye Qingqing smiled with satisfaction, "Call me that from now on, remember that!"
Lu Mo ignored her, and Ye Qingqing took it as tacit agreement. She took the money and said, "I'll rent a house this afternoon, somewhere secluded, so I can do experiments."
"No need, come to my place."
Ye Qingqing stared at him in astonishment, "Where did you get the house?"
"I'll take you there this afternoon." Lu Mo's lips curled up slightly, quite pleased with Ye Qingqing's surprise.
He was even more pleased that he had the opportunity to demonstrate his wealth, and that it made the girl understand that she no longer needed to risk making money, as he had enough!
