When she returned home, He Ruixue was hit head-on by a wet willow branch.
Zhao Meiya sprinkled water on her head and said, "Go back and take a bath quickly. Mom has boiled some water for you and soaked it with moxa leaves and pomelo leaves. Dongbao has suffered a lot today, so you need to get rid of the evil spirits."
Water droplets flowed down her ears. He Ruixue wiped her face and said helplessly, "I know, Mom. I'll go later."
"Good boy, mom will cook for you."
"Don't bother. I just want to eat noodles today. Just make some noodles for me."
"No, Mom will stew a chicken for you. Dongbao has suffered a lot this time, so he needs to be well nourished."
Okay, He Ruixue knew that she couldn't persuade her, so she could only take some clean clothes and go to the bathroom to take a shower.
After coming out of the bathroom, she sat in front of the dressing table. Jiang Yanxu appeared silently behind her, took the towel from her hand and helped her wring out her hair.
Looking in the mirror, the porcelain-like hands moved through the thick black hair, like a white sailboat sailing in a black lake, the movements were slow and gentle, without even a ripple appearing.
The two looked at each other in the mirror, and Jiang Yanxu suddenly bent down and kissed the corner of her eye.
The warm touch disappeared immediately, and He Ruixue's eyelashes trembled slightly.
Only when she was in front of him did she reveal a bit of vulnerability. She hugged his waist, pressed her cheek against his abdomen and said, "I almost didn't make it back today."
"No." Jiang Yanxu's expression was extremely serious, "There is a destiny in the dark. It can't target you directly, so it can only use roundabout means.
But the river of fate flows endlessly, its source is inexhaustible. When you scoop up a bucket of water, another bucket will naturally replenish it immediately. That is why you suddenly felt like taking the amulet I gave you."
"People from outside the world are not as easy to kill as Tianyun."
He Ruixue pinched him, and her confused mood gradually calmed down. "Who are you talking about? Does that comfort people?"
Jiang Yanxu chuckled, "I'm just stating the facts. You're already very powerful and worthy of being its enemy. If it were anyone else, even with all sorts of external help, it would be difficult for them to seize the opportunity and act as decisively as you."
He leaned down, and their right hands clasped together, wrapping her in his arms, "Even if it's me, don't I have to rely on you to escape its influence?
You're not only saving yourself, but also saving me. That's truly amazing. And I can only help you to a limited extent. When I think about it, I feel guilty and remorseful."
"Really? How come I didn't notice? I saw you were living quite comfortably. You really let go when you said you'd let go.
Last time you said you wanted to investigate the matter of the person with destiny, but there is still no result."
"Don't be impatient, darling, good fortune and bad luck come at the right time, and no one knows.
What if I act too hastily and become blind again? Who will make your bed, wash your clothes, and cook for you? Won't you feel sorry for your husband?"
He Ruixue raised her head from his arms and pinched his cheek, but was afraid that using too much force would cause a flaw on the perfect cheek, so she quickly moved her hand away.
A chuckle escaped from his throat, as if he saw through her face-obsessed nature. He deliberately lowered his head, presenting a more perfect angle of himself in front of her.
Encountering this sudden appearance, He Ruixue stared blankly at him for half a minute before swallowing her non-existent saliva.
She pushed his chest away with a finger and said, "Don't pretend. I don't know you yet. Maybe you predicted some incredible result and don't want me to know, right?"
Jiang Yanxu put on an expression that said "you found out all this", picked up a few strands of her hair, and slowly combed it from head to toe with a comb.
"You're the one who got scared. I wanted to find a suitable time to tell you slowly. Since you insist, okay..."
"It's a pity that people with good fortune are not easily abandoned. Huo Tingxun will be transferred to a civilian position in the future, still working in the army, and will marry a lucky wife. He will have a prosperous career in the future and will be successful in everything he does.
He also has a pair of twin sons. As for his broken calf, he will get a prosthesis made by his wife in the future. As long as he doesn't do strenuous exercise, it won't affect his movements much."
He Ruixue widened her eyes. What a medical miracle! Prosthetic limbs in later generations weren’t this advanced, right?
So now we have gone from the reborn stepmother story to the blessing baby group pampering story?
Either the hero saved the world in his previous life, or he is simply the reincarnation of the God of Creation. Other than that, He Ruixue really can't understand why the world consciousness loves him so much.
You might as well just marry the hero and stop causing trouble for others.
"Wait, twin sons, didn't Huo Tingxun have two children before?"
“Oh, because he was seriously injured and needed to recuperate, his ex-wife was worried that he couldn’t take good care of the two children, so she took them away.
But when those two children grow up and their lives are not going as planned, they will turn around and resent their mother when they see their younger brother who was raised in a wealthy village."
What an ungrateful person.
She understood that the male protagonist's ex-wife might have become cannon fodder to be slapped in the face.
Can you please be reasonable? This is someone else's biological child. She is worried that her ex-husband won't be able to take care of the child after being seriously injured and disabled, so is there anything wrong with taking the child in to raise him yourself?
When the male protagonist was at the lowest point in his life, he was looked down upon by his ex-wife. He probably resented her deeply in his heart and only wanted to make her regret it after he became successful. He didn't realize that he still had to pay child support.
He Ruixue took a deep breath and said, "Just tell me, who will he marry in the future? Do I know him?"
"I know him, that's Li Duoduo."
Is this still Chinese? Why can't she understand it?
"Li Duoduo, the daughter of the old Li family, Li Duoliang's sister?"
"Um."
She was even more shocked, "She's only nine years old."
Damn it, you are committing a crime!
