C55 (2/2)

”What do you mean?” Xu Chencan covered her mouth in horror. She had never dared to think about such things.

Seeing her frightened, Chu Lingyu laughed and rubbed her hair, pulling her into the car.

At this moment, Xu Chencan's mind had gone through all the doctors and nurses that he had interacted with before, but he still could not think of anyone who would have the opportunity to do so.

After returning to the Chu Clan, Chu Lingyu set her aside and let her think about it for herself. Then, she went upstairs to take care of some official business.

In the evening —

Xu Chencan's stiff body moved. Looking at the already dark room, he stretched his limbs a little before walking upstairs.

As he walked to the door of Chu Lingyu's study, he heard a flustered and exasperated scolding coming from inside. Without even thinking about it, he knew that it was Chu Lingyu who was angry at his own employees.

She silently came down from the stairs and went to the kitchen. Unexpectedly, she didn't see Auntie Ling and the auntie who cooked.

”This person is really …”

When she thought about how Chu Lingyu had sent away those people so that she wouldn't be disturbed, a strange feeling arose in her heart, and she couldn't put her words into it to describe it.

Since no one was cooking, she had to do it herself.

Thus, when Chu Lingyu came down from the second floor, he could smell a fragrant aroma.

He followed the scent to the kitchen. Watching her slender back bustling about in the kitchen, he couldn't help but smile and voluntarily entered the kitchen.

”What can I help you with?” Chu Lingyu asked gently.

Hearing Chu Lingyu's voice, Xu Chencan was shocked, but he quickly calmed down. He pointed at the plate of armor in the sink and said, ”Wash this up, I want to eat the armor now.”

Looking at that pile of shells, Chu Lingyu slightly frowned, but still rolled up her sleeves and obediently went to get them.

In the kitchen, the two of them did not speak, but unexpectedly, there was harmony.

After all the dishes had been served, Xu Chencan took out another bottle of wine and helped Chu Lingyu pour it. He raised his wine cup and looked at Chu Lingyu, sincerely thanking him, ”Thank you for being here today. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know what to do.”

Seeing that her eyes were still shining with tears, a trace of nervousness flashed through Chu Lingyu's eyes.

”You're my wife, and I should be the one to protect you.” Chu Lingyu said hoarsely, his eyes full of seriousness.

Xu Chencan lowered his head and said with a trembling voice, ”Chu Lingyu, there's no need to be so nice to me. I'll leave if you know.”

Chu Lingyu only smiled faintly and drank a cup of red wine.

Knowing that he was purposely ignoring this topic, Xu Chencan didn't say anything. Chu Lingyu would find out sooner or later.

Unknowingly, she had already drunk quite a lot of wine, and when she looked at Chu Lingyu, there were even a few double shadows.

”Don't move!” Xu Chencan suddenly slammed the table and staggered over to Chu Lingyu. Holding his head, he smiled in satisfaction, ”That's more like it. A child who doesn't move is a good child.”

”You drank too much, Can Can.” Chu Lingyu let her do whatever she wanted, and only looked at her with deep emotions.

”I'm not drunk.” Xu Chencan immediately shook his head and pouted as he looked at Chu Lingyu.

Slowly, tears began to appear in her eyes. She looked at Chu Lingyu with grievance and wailed: ”They all wronged me, yet they don't believe me and still want me to resign. I obviously like this job very much.”

As she spoke, her crying became louder and louder.
