Chapter 188 Adjusting the Trajectory
Grandpa Huo looked outside, but after a long while he didn't see Wen Ci. He asked in confusion, "Where's Ah Ci? Why are you alone?"
"She's still sleeping."
After saying this, Huo Jingyuan felt that his tone and meaning were a little off, so he explained, "Last night, Ah Ci asked me to stay with you guys in Hangzhou for a few more days, so she just went to bed not long ago."
As experienced people, the two elders understood the meaning of Huo Jingyuan's words "just fell asleep not long ago".
Grandma Liu rolled her eyes at him and complained, "Although your grandfather and I are looking forward to your having a baby, we didn't let you be so impatient."
As she spoke, she shouted to the aunt in the kitchen, "Xiao Li, make some chicken soup for the young lady at noon to nourish her body."
"No thanks, the flight is at 11 o'clock."
Hearing this, Grandma Liu looked at Huo Jingyuan with disdain, and complained word by word: "Huo Jingyuan, you are really not a man. Ah Ci's flight was at 11 o'clock at noon, and you kept her busy until dawn."
"That's right." Grandpa Huo agreed.
"no……"
Huo Jingyuan held his forehead with his hand. Even if he had ten mouths, he couldn't explain it clearly. Originally, he only wanted to do it once, and it was Wen Ci who agreed to it.
"Add some wolfberries. You can drink some on the way to send Ah Ci off." After a pause, Grandma Liu asked, "How many days do you plan to stay in Hangzhou?"
"About three or four days."
If it lasted any longer, he wouldn't be able to hold it in.
"Okay, okay."
After breakfast, Grandma Liu went to the kitchen to watch the soup stew, and Huo Jingyuan went to the study to make a cup of coffee. As a plowing ox, he was also tired.
I forced myself to wait and send my wife to the airport.
—
Half past nine.
Huo Jingyuan returned to the room and saw Wen Ci still sleeping soundly. He covered her vision with a silk quilt and gently picked her up in a princess hug.
When Su Wanqing passed by the courtyard, she saw Huo Jingyuan holding Wen Ci in a princess hug. She felt very uncomfortable and her eyes were full of envy.
She clenched her fists. She should have listened to her friends and drugged Huo Jingyuan before he returned to China to make the matter a fait accompli.
In this way, even if they live in different countries, a man like Huo Jingyuan will be responsible to the end. Unfortunately, she was just 18 years old at that time.
I don't have the courage to give you medicine.
An hour later, Wen Ci slowly opened her eyes. Her head was resting on Huo Jingyuan's muscular thighs, and she was covered with a thin blanket.
"Awake?" Huo Jingyuan asked calmly.
He has kept this position for an hour without moving, which is not a big deal. The key is that his wife moves from time to time when she is sleeping.
The thighs are...closer.
She rested her head on her thighs, her nerves tense every time she moved, and she had to adjust her trajectory occasionally to avoid poking Wen Ci and disturbing her rest.
Wen Ci sat up, stretched, hugged Huo Jingyuan's arm, looked out the window, and asked, "Where are we?"
"Madam, we are about to arrive at the airport."
Wen Ci rubbed his eyes, and saw the dark circles under Huo Jingyuan's eyes. He looked tired. "Didn't you catch up on your sleep?"
"No."
As he spoke, Huo Jingyuan took out the thermos box and said softly, "Are you hungry? Do you want some chicken soup? You should drink it on the plane."
Flights in the 1980s also came with lunch.
It's still at the state-owned canteen level.
"Why aren't you sleeping?"
Wen Ci looked at him seriously.
Huo Jingyuan was the one working most of the time last night. He was much more tired than himself, and his back and waist ached all over, as if he had been run over by a car.
Huo Jingyuan wasn't as exaggerated as being run over by a car.
But, he must be in a state of fatigue.
