But because she made the decision to have an abortion last night, she almost stayed up all night. Now she closed her eyes and fell asleep without realizing it.
I don't know how much time passed, but she vaguely felt someone touching her eyebrows. She was so frightened that she opened her eyes suddenly, only to be met with a pair of affectionate eyes.
Jin Shaoheng.
Lu Xining quickly sat up from the bed and asked warily: "Why did you come in?"
"I heard that orange fragrance can relieve morning sickness. I saw that you were still frowning when you were sleeping. Maybe you were feeling uncomfortable, so I put some in a sachet. I originally wanted to put it on your pillow to help you sleep better." Jin Shaoheng explained.
Only then did Lu Xining notice that there was indeed a scent of oranges on the bed. His expression softened a little, but he still drew the line between Chu and Han: "You... don't just enter my room in the future."
"Okay." Jin Shaoheng agreed.
Intuition told Lu Xining that he was not an easy person to talk to.
But there was no trace of cunning in the eyes he was looking at her at the moment, but the tenderness in his eyes also made her unable to look directly.
In fact, she understood that what he was looking at was not her, but the former Lu Xining, the former her.
But she really didn't feel anything about her past with him.
Jin Shaoheng saw that she didn't want to talk to him, and there happened to be a faint sound of talking outside, so he lowered his eyes and went out.
After the door closed, Lu Xining breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, and then got up to wash up.
When she went out, Jiang Cheng was busy in the kitchen, while Liu Weijie was standing next to Jin Shaoheng, seemingly reporting something.
"Mrs."
When Liu Weijie saw her, he shouted respectfully.
Jin Shaoheng's eyes fell on her unconsciously.
Lu Xining nodded vaguely, tried his best to ignore that look, and went to the restaurant directly.
She absentmindedly poured herself a glass of water, and just as she was about to drink it, her wrist was pinched by Jin Shaoheng.
"You can't drink cold water in your current situation," he said.
Lu Xining looked at him in surprise.
Jin Shaoheng had already taken the cup over, added some hot water to her, and put it back in her hand.
Lu Xining didn't want to argue with him over trivial matters. He tasted the warm drink and found it was indeed more comfortable, so he drank it one sip after another.
Jiang Cheng came out with the food and saw the two people asking for instructions: "Boss, dinner is ready."
Jin Shaoheng nodded slightly and led Lu Xining to the dining table, which was already filled with food.
What about garlic fried wheat, steamed fish, lotus root slices, cold shredded chicken, etc.
Lu Xining glanced at Jiang Cheng, probably surprised that a bodyguard like him had such a homely side.
"Eat more." Jin Shaoheng brought her some vegetables.
Lu Xining put it in his mouth and chewed it, but felt that the taste was a bit familiar. It was clearly the meal she and Lin Zhiyi had eaten last night.
It turned out to be a gift from Jin Shaoheng.
"Not to your liking?" Jin Shaoheng asked.
Lu Xining shook his head.
She was worried, and she had already started to have morning sickness, so her appetite was naturally bad and she didn't eat much.
She had already slept in the morning and could not sleep in the afternoon.
Jin Shaoheng turned on the TV for her and stayed with her. The two of them had nothing to say during the whole process.
Liu Weijie looked worried and said, "Mr. Jin, we are spending the Chinese New Year here this year. Do you want to prepare anything?"
Jin Shaoheng looked at him without knowing why.
"You see, everyone is posting Spring Festival couplets and hanging lanterns and so on. Our room is deserted. Should we go out and buy something?" Liu Weijie added.
In previous years, we stayed at the Jin family's old house, so naturally someone made arrangements. I had been away from home for the past few years, so I didn't think much of it.
But this year is different, Lu Xining is here too.
Jin Shaoheng understood his hint, but frowned: "There are too many people in the supermarket."
"Then last year's shopping street." Liu Weijie had already thought of where to go when he started speaking.
The so-called New Year Street is a street specially created by the government to cater to the festive atmosphere.
Do you have anything to eat or wear during the Chinese New Year?
It doesn't matter what they buy, the most important thing is to create opportunities for the two of them.
Lu Xining naturally didn't want to go, but if she didn't go, Jin Shaoheng wouldn't go, and it would be even more awkward for the two people left in the room, so he had to agree.
The distance is not far, but there are not fewer people than in the supermarket.
Liu Weijie and Jiang Cheng disappeared as soon as they got off the car, leaving only Jin Shaoheng and Lu Xining.
There were so many people that Jin Shaoheng was afraid that people would crowd Lu Xining, so he almost trapped her in his arms.
Lu Xining strolled around casually. When he passed by a food stall, the smells of various foods mixed together, which made Lu Xining's face change. He covered his mouth and found a place where there were few people around and retched.
Jin Shaoheng followed her and helped her along her back, but Lu Xining pushed him away angrily.
Jin Shaoheng was stunned for a moment. When had he ever received such treatment?
"Young man, my daughter-in-law is having a hard time being pregnant. You can't bear the pain for her. It's just right to vent your anger."
An old man pushing a snack cart saw this scene and spoke.
She looks to be about 70 years old. Although her hair is gray, she is mentally and physically strong.
Jin Shaoheng frowned and ignored her, only handing a glass of water to Lu Xining to rinse his mouth.
"Little girl, do you want to eat something sour? My old lady's candied haws of sugar can be used to relieve morning sickness."
The old man saw that he was not easy to talk to, so he started to promote Lu Xining.
Lu Xining really wanted to eat something sour at this moment. Looking at the red fruit in front of him, it was really tempting to wrap it in sugar, so he took it and took a bite.
Jin Shaoheng saw that her eyebrows relaxed and her anger subsided, and he immediately paid for it.
"Would you like some more hawthorn candy balls? And hawthorn cake? I make them all myself, using the best fruits and they are absolutely clean."
The old woman added that just selling a bunch of candied haws on a stick was not his purpose.
Jin Shaoheng glanced at Lu Xining, but she had no objection.
"Then let's have some."
"Hey!" the old man responded happily and quickly packed some for them.
The two of them went shopping again, but actually didn't buy anything. The main reason was that they were afraid that Lu Xining would be tired, so they later entered a theater.
They found a seat and sat down, watching the show for a long time.
Lu Xining was really acid-loving, so he sat there and finished eating the candied haws, and then ate a few pieces of hawthorn cake.
When she went to get the candy balls again, Jin Shaoheng couldn't stand it anymore, so he pressed her hand and said, "If you eat any more, your teeth will not be able to bite the supper."
"I'm not hungry." Just thinking about food makes me lose my appetite.
Jin Shaoheng frowned: "How can I not eat?"
"If the food Jiang Cheng cooks is not to your liking, I'll call Mother Zhuang to come over." After that, he added: "She used to serve my mother, and she knows your taste well."
Hearing this, Lu Xining looked at him and said seriously: "It's only a few days, I can still bear it, you don't have to mobilize troops and crowds like this."
She agreed to spend so many days with him just to make him give up and would not change his mind.
