Jin Shaoheng drove out of the old house and searched along the green belt.
But the rain was getting heavier and heavier, which affected his vision, and he was afraid of missing Lu Xining, so he drove very slowly.
Just as he was about to enter the main road, he finally saw Lu Xining's figure.
As expected, this silly woman didn't even wear a coat. Her thin figure had been soaked in the rain, and she was holding her arms in the cold.
Jin Shaoheng honked the horn twice before driving the car to her side. The glass lowered and he said two words: "Get in the car!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Xining just glanced at him and continued walking forward.
He's obviously shivering from the cold, so what else can he do?
Jin Shaoheng's car followed her slowly and kept honking the horn to remind her, but she just turned a deaf ear and had no intention of getting in the car.
Does she want to freeze to death?
Jin Shaoheng thought angrily, he had never found this woman so difficult to deal with before, so he simply got out of the car and put her on his shoulders, then stuffed her into the passenger seat.
Lu Xining naturally refused to cooperate, but he blocked the door forcefully and said: "You dare to get out of the car, believe it or not, I will make you regret it?"
The only thing he could do to make Lu Xining regret was to threaten his younger brother. Although Lu Xining was unwilling to admit his love, he still obeyed and did not move again.
Jin Shaoheng was also satisfied now and walked directly to the driver's seat.
"In addition to threats, do you have anything else?" Lu Xining sarcastically said.
"As long as it's practical for me," Jin Shaoheng replied, taking off his coat that was soaked outside.
"Sneeze!" Lu Xining sneezed.
The next second, a suit jacket wrapped around her shoulders with warm body temperature.
After reacting, Lu Xining was still ungrateful and wanted to take it off, but Jin Shaoheng's hand pressed on her shoulder.
The two "competed" silently for a while, and then his eyes suddenly froze and asked: "Are you sure you don't want to wear it?"
Lu Xining followed his downward gaze and found that the soaked clothes clung to his body, revealing the curves of his chest.
"Ah!" She murmured, quickly grabbing her collar and her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
Jin Shaoheng then looked away, and the atmosphere was actually a bit awkward.
But as a strategizing boss in the business world, what kind of scene has he never seen before? So he quickly adjusted his mood, looked calm, and started to check the wound on her arm.
The gauze had already been soaked to prevent reinfection. Jin Shaoheng opened the first aid kit in the car and started to re-bandage her.
Lu Xining let him concentrate on his work. Although he knew that he had no other thoughts, his palms were still sticky and nervous, and he couldn't tell whether it was rain or sweat.
But she didn't forget that she was wronged, and asked: "Don't you believe me? Do you still care what I do?"
"One yard at a time, you suffered this injury because of me, I should be responsible." Jin Shaoheng replied without raising his head.
Everything was so cold and matter-of-fact, with no trace of gratitude at all.
Responsible?
She was in the hospital for two days, and he didn't even look at her. Thinking of this, Lu Xining really wanted to say that he regretted it, and it was better to let him be hacked to death by that person.
But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back, because she found that even if it was just a verbal curse, she was not willing to say it to him even though she knew it was impossible.
Jin Shaoheng saw her resentful eyes and asked, "Want to scold me?"
Lu Xining didn't say anything, but just averted his eyes, as if he was angry.
Jin Shaoheng didn't care, started the engine and drove the car back to his old house.
…
"The young master and the young mistress are back." The servant standing at the window suddenly shouted excitedly.
After Jin Shaoheng went out, Lin Qingyue, who had been pacing, quickly walked to the window after hearing the words. He saw Jin Shaoheng, who was only wearing a shirt, holding an umbrella and dragging the reluctant Lu Xining in.
"Shaoheng——"
She originally stepped forward to look for presence, but was squeezed away by the servants who gathered around her. Jin Shaoheng also took Lu Xining directly into the bedroom upstairs.
The bath water was poured into the bathtub, and Jin Shaoheng said to Lu Xining: "Take a hot bath to warm yourself first."
Lu Xining looked at Jin Shaoheng who was putting bath water on him, and he was still a little stunned. After all, he had never treated him like this before.
When Jin Shaoheng saw that she was not moving, he thought she was still competing with him, so he simply picked her up and put her into the bathtub, and took off her suit jacket from her shoulders.
Shocked, Lu Xining stood up, but he had no choice but to hold the edge of the bathtub with both hands and push his upper body over. The two of them were very close in an instant.
"Be good and don't get the wound wet again. I'll ask Mother Zhuang to cook a bowl of ginger soup and bring it over later." She was so close that his breath blew on her face as he spoke.
Lu Xining held his breath subconsciously. Looking at him acting abnormally, he always felt that it was so weird. He was obviously very frightened.
Jin Shaoheng's eyes swept over her face, avoiding her figure wrapped in clothes, and made sure that she would stay in it honestly before leaving.
He went to another bathroom to take a shower, but the image of being entangled with Lu Xining flashed through his mind again, and this time it was clearer, as if it had really existed.
Jin Shaoheng!
He thought that he saw Lu Xining wet, so he had wild thoughts. After all, he was also a normal adult man.
There was a knock on the door outside. Jin Shaoheng wrapped himself in a bathrobe and went out, only to see Lin Qingyue standing at the door holding ginger soup.
"Why are you sending it?" Jin Shaoheng asked.
"Is Xining okay?" Lin Qingyue asked with concern.
But his expression was sad and he looked aggrieved.
Jin Shaoheng didn't seem to notice, and just responded: "Yeah."
Seeing his cold attitude, Lin Qingyue put down the ginger soup in his hand, suddenly hugged him, and cried remorsefully: "Shaoheng, I know I shouldn't be jealous, but what should I do if I can't control myself?
I saw you brought Xining back, and I was afraid that if you cared about her, you wouldn't want me and the baby anymore."
Jin Shaoheng stiffened for a moment, then slowly reached out and patted her back, comforting her: "Fool, I'm just afraid that if something happens to her, she won't be able to explain to my mother."
Lu Xining came out of the bathroom and heard these words.
Although Lu Xining had never had any extravagant expectations about his actions tonight, he still felt a strong pinch in his heart.
Injured, she wanted to quietly retreat to the bathroom, but Lin Qingyue found her, and quickly let go of Jin Shaoheng with a guilty look on his face, explaining: "Xining, I'm sorry, it's all my fault... It's all my fault, I..."
She should be sorry, but she acted uncontrollably and innocently.
"Miss Lin is joking, I am the only one who disturbed you," Lu Xining said.
Even though she was sad in her heart, she tried her best not to show it to the two of them. Instead, she looked like she was not trapped in her heart and emotionless.
Lin Qingyue was slightly startled and was about to say something when Lu Xining left the bedroom, obviously not wanting to cooperate with her performance.
Jin Shaoheng frowned unconsciously when he saw Lu Xining's decisive figure.
"Shaoheng..." Lin Qingyue called him, very unwilling to attract his attention to Lu Xining...
