"Are you feeling better?" As she spoke, she unconsciously choked up, "Zhuzhu?"
Tears slid down her cheeks and onto Zhuzhu's face. She raised her hand to touch it and looked at the wetness on her hand.
Zhuzhu lifted her little face to look at her but didn't dare to get close to her. She could only stare at her intently.
Seeing that Zhuzhu had almost recovered, Xu Chunian finally let go of her, "I'm sorry, Zhuzhu. I'll get you a straw next time, okay?"
When she let go of her, Zhuzhu shrank back with her head down, tightly clutching the little pig doll beside her.
Xu Chunian also knew that Zhuzhu didn't want to get close to her now. After letting go of her, she felt empty inside. She stood up and said, "Zhuzhu, I'm going out. Go to bed early. Good night."
When she reached the door, she turned around. Only when Zhuzhu saw her turn around did she hurriedly lower her head.
"Shall I turn off the light for you?"
With a "click", the big light in the room was turned off, and the little rabbit lamp on the princess bed gave out a glow, so the room wasn't too dark.
Seeing that there was no sound at the door, Zhuzhu got up from the ground, placed the little pig doll in her hand on the bed, and then climbed onto the bed herself. The bed wasn't too high, but it was a bit of a struggle for Zhuzhu, who was not yet three years old.
She obediently covered herself with the quilt, placed the little pig doll in her hand on the small pillow beside her, and closed her eyes.
Xu Chunian had watched the whole process. Zhuzhu was on guard when looking at her and was a bit afraid of her approaching, so she didn't dare to go in again rashly.
After wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Xu Chunian turned around. Looking up with teary eyes, she unexpectedly saw that her line of sight just collided with that of a man not far away. The light in the corridor behind illuminated Jiang Huaixu's tall and slender figure. His facial features, though not very clear, had a sharp and cold outline. The man just looked at her coldly, with no ripple in his calm eyes. His cold face was full of chill.
"Jiang Huaixu." Xu Chunian said with a strong cry in her voice, "You..."
Jiang Huaixu, however, walked past her and opened the door behind him. Xu Chunian pursed her lips. She didn't dare to tell him everything rashly. She wasn't quite sure if their marriage was based on mutual affection. She also wasn't sure if she would be sent to a mental hospital after telling him, after all, even Ali thought she was crazy. This whole thing was just too unbelievable.
That night
Xu Chunian lazily yawned, feeling sleepy. That cup of coffee seemed to have no effect on her. Just close my eyes for a moment, just a moment, just...
...
When her consciousness came back again, Xu Chunian suddenly sat up on the bed and subconsciously looked around. She let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was still here.
She threw off the quilt and went downstairs.
Zhuzhu was sitting on a chair, eating her breakfast obediently. The milk glass was a bit big for her to hold with one small hand.
"Madam, you're awake."
Xu Chunian nodded and sat at the dining table. She took Zhuzhu's milk glass and fed her.
Seeing her, Zhuzhu was still a bit scared and shrank back.
"Drink in small sips. Don't choke." Xu Chunian softened her voice.
Zhuzhu lowered her eyes. Her eyelashes were long and thick. Her double eyelids were exactly like Xu Chunian's. She sat there quietly, just like the princess in a fairy tale when she was little.
Zhuzhu finished a glass of milk in small sips with her help.
At this moment, Jiang Huaixu, having changed his clothes, came downstairs.
"Zhuzhu, are you full?" He fastened the last button on his shirt sleeve, "We're going to the company."
When facing Zhuzhu, his tone had a bit of warmth.
"It's the weekend today. Zhuzhu doesn't go to kindergarten. Let's leave her at home." Xu Chunian rolled her eyes and ate her breakfast casually.
Jiang Huaixu wouldn't let her get close to Zhuzhu. He was so guarded against her as if she were something dangerous.
Jiang Huaixu sneered, "What's she going to do at home? Are you disappointed that Zhuzhu's hand is only fractured?"
