"No."
Huo Jincheng approached her with a bowl in hand, not giving her a chance to refuse. As soon as Jian Yunong caught a whiff of the smell, she wanted to burrow back under the covers.
Smack!
Huo Jincheng gave her a light slap on her bottom, pulling her out from under the blankets.
Jian Yunong waved her little hands in protest, "I won't drink it, I won't drink it! I'm perfectly fine! I won't catch a cold!"
She was really resisting, and Huo Jincheng frowned, "Jian Yunong, you're grown up now. Do you want me to feed you or will you drink it yourself?"
When Huo Jincheng got stern, he exuded an icy aura. Jian Yunong glanced up at him; his chiseled features were sharp and left no room for negotiation, nor did she have any hope of bargaining.
"Fine. I'll drink it."
Jian Yunong obediently sat up from the blankets, holding the bowl of Ginger Soup with both hands, her stiff expression resembling someone holding a bomb.
Wrinkling her nose, Jian Yunong pitifully asked, "Can you get me something sweet? I want to eat Cotton Candy! The fragrant kind!"
Seeing Huo Jincheng remain unmoved, Jian Yunong softened her voice and called out to him, "Honey~"
The elongated tone made it hard to refuse.
When Huo Jincheng was pursuing Bai Ru, he always catered to her.
Bai Ru seemed to know how to act around him; she never gave him a pleasant expression. Not to mention Jian Yunong's soft and spoiled demeanor.
Although he knew that Jian Yunong only called him that when she was being cute, Huo Jincheng still found it endearing. He lifted Jian Yunong's chin and kissed her gently, saying, "You need to finish it once you're back."
"Mm."
Jian Yunong furrowed her brows for a moment, then hesitantly nodded and pouted at him, "Hurry up."
By the time Huo Jincheng returned, Jian Yunong's bowl of Ginger Soup had been completely finished.
She wore a pitiful expression until she saw Huo Jincheng's Cotton Candy, which sparked a bit of anger in her. She grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth.
Seeing her enjoy the sweet treat, Huo Jincheng, who usually showed no interest in such childish things, suddenly leaned over and directly snatched the half-eaten Cotton Candy from Jian Yunong's mouth.
Jian Yunong whimpered, struggling to swallow what was in her mouth to prevent him from stealing more. She glared at him, "Isn't there some over there? Why do you have to take my stuff? Don't you have a cleanliness obsession?"
Jian Yunong offered him the Cotton Candy, "Here, I'm not that stingy. Don't be like this; if others see us, they'll think I'm a bad person who won't share food with you."
Stealing food from someone else's mouth was not in line with Huo Jincheng's usual demeanor!
Huo Jincheng didn't take what she offered. "Just eat one more; it's time for bed."
Jian Yunong quickly stuffed two more pieces into her mouth.
In the next second, Huo Jincheng expressionlessly snatched the entire bag away and tossed it aside.
"Brush your teeth and go to bed!"
"I can still taste the Ginger Soup!" She hadn't had enough yet.
Huo Jincheng took her to the washroom, watched her brush her teeth, and then wash her face and hands before finally letting her return to the soft bed.
Resentment rolled around the edge of the bed, and Jian Yunong buried herself under the quilt. Tonight at the Huo Family Old Residence, she had brought nothing with her. What if Huo Jincheng decided to do something to her...
Jian Yunong silently bit the corner of the quilt, "This bed isn't very comfortable."
"Mm?"
Huo Jincheng lifted the quilt and lay down beside her, "This bed is the same brand as the one at home."
Huo Jincheng's hand rested on Jian Yunong's waist, "Why sleep so far away?"
Unhappy, Jian Yunong exerted a little force, but her quilt barrier was easily broken by Huo Jincheng. Her battle had already failed before it even began.
Huo Jincheng wrapped his arms around her waist, applying slight pressure, and Jian Yunong's soft body seamlessly fit against his masculine form.
"I'm so tired."
Jian Yunong clutched at his shirt, "You scared me to death today."
Huo Jincheng's large hand stroked her slender waist, "Mm. Then let's get some good sleep."
Like this?
A hint of disbelief flickered in Jian Yunong's bright eyes.
Huo Jincheng's dark eyes, which were impossible to see into deeply, held a shallow smile, "From now on, you must listen to me."
"Mm. Got it."
Jian Yunong learned a valuable lesson this time and had a very good attitude about admitting her mistakes.
Huo Jincheng liked this soft and tender Daughter-in-law. He kissed her on the lips, and when he touched her delicate, soft lips, he couldn't help but deepen the kiss, rolling and increasing the heat little by little.
Jian Yunong really didn't like this situation; her whole body tensed up. However, at that moment, Huo Jincheng transformed into a patient hunter.
With a feint to distract her, he gripped her waist on the inside. Jian Yunong parted her lips, and Huo Jincheng seized the opportunity to pursue fiercely. Jian Yunong felt extremely flustered; she didn't know if it was because she had just eaten Cotton Candy, but she actually found this kiss quite sweet. Huo Jincheng's pursuit made her heart tremble rather than triggering any feelings of nausea.
Huo Jincheng rolled over and pinned Jian Yunong beneath him.
At that moment, the phone on the bedside vibrated, its ringtone distinctive, as if a text message had arrived.
In an unprecedented move, Huo Jincheng stopped and picked up the phone.
The room was dark, but Jian Yunong could clearly see the expression on his handsome face gradually becoming serious.
In the next second, he rolled off the bed.
When he came back out, he had already changed his clothes.
"Be good and sleep, okay? I'll be back soon."
Huo Jincheng kissed Jian Yunong on the lips.
Jian Yunong pulled up the blanket, feeling a mix of relief and disappointment.
After Huo Jincheng left, Jian Yunong tossed and turned in bed for a long time before finally falling asleep.
“Jian Yunong.”
“Nong Nong?”
“What’s wrong with this child? Why does she have such a high fever? Her forehead is burning!”
“Where is Huo Jincheng? Why isn’t he here?”
“Quick, call him! Tell him to come back!”
Who is talking in her ear?
So noisy?
Jian Yunong desperately tried to break free from this powerless situation, but there was no way; she could only let out a painful whimper.
“Mom…”
“Aunt…”
She kept calling out to her closest ones, tears streaming down her face in the dream, causing those watching by the bedside to feel heartbroken.
Huo Jincheng was driving home at high speed.
Just as he was approaching the front door, a car suddenly rushed out. If it weren't for Mu Qingrang's timely reaction, the entire vehicle would have crashed straight into them.
Can you drive?
Huo Jincheng felt a surge of anger inside, but saw a familiar face in the car that was blocking his way as the window rolled down.
Yi Nansheng looked indifferent. "Third Brother, are you back from outside?"
"Move the car."
Huo Jincheng had no good tone for him. He was anxious to return and check on Jian Yunong.
It was said that Jian Yunong had a fever all night.
He felt a bit regretful; he had promised to go back, but was delayed by things outside.
After returning, his grandparents would surely be furious.
Yi Nansheng remained seated in the driver's seat, coldly curling his lips, his amber eyes gradually filling with frost. Then he got out of the car. "Sorry, the car broke down."
Huo Jincheng opened the door and got out.
"Yi Nansheng, even if you block me from going to see her, you have no right to care about her. Don't forget your identity."
The smile at the corner of Huo Jincheng's mouth was wicked as he coldly glanced at Yi Nansheng's tightly clenched fists. "You should be concerned about Le Yi. If it weren't for my sister being pregnant, I would definitely throw you out."
At this critical moment, Le Yi was having Yi Nansheng's child. Although Huo Jincheng wanted to take action against Yi Nansheng, he couldn't choose this time.
Huo Jincheng strode past him, his shoulder brushing heavily against Yi Nansheng as he walked briskly toward the Huo Family Old Residence.
"Thank you, Grandma!"
Before even entering the door, Jian Yunong's nasal voice could be heard.
"Good child. Eat more, and then take a nap later."
Huo Jincheng walked in and noticed his grandmother standing by the bed, her face showing anger. "Where did you go last night? Hmm? Sneaking out in the middle of the night while we were asleep? I just scolded you at the dinner table yesterday. Can't you be a little more restrained? Do you want your grandfather to beat you to death?"
"Grandma, I know I was wrong." Huo Jincheng stepped forward to take the bowl from his grandmother's hand. "You've worked hard. You can't be angry anymore. I know you love me the most, and I will definitely change. I promise."
Of course, Grandma wouldn't tell her partner.
"You little rascal!" Grandma lightly hit him, though she was angry, she didn't scold him too much. "Hurry and keep Jian Yunong company while she eats. She’s not feeling well this time. Did you serve her the Ginger Soup last night? That’s a folk remedy and should be quite effective."
Jian Yunong averted her gaze nervously.
Huo Jincheng noticed.
"Grandma, you go ahead and take care of your things. I'll handle what needs to be done here."
After Grandma left, Huo Jincheng silently fed her the remaining congee in the bowl.
"Did you finish the Ginger Soup from last night?"
"Yes."
Jian Yunong nodded, her small face flushed abnormally red, and her delicate lips were chapped, losing their moist luster.
Huo Jincheng put down the bowl and fixed his gaze on the floor vase in the room.
"What is this?"
Huo Jincheng looked at her expressionlessly.
Jian Yunong silently shrank into the blanket, until only her two eyes could be seen darting around.
Last night, when she called him husband to coax him out, it turned out to be a ruse to lure him away.
Who said his wife was a fool?
She was quite clever when it came to these matters.
Huo Jincheng had already been at a disadvantage with her more than once.
"You're quite something."
Huo Jincheng poked her forehead.
"I need to ask Mist Shenshen if this habit is something you learned from her?"
"I'm sorry."
Jian Yunong immediately apologized, "I really know I was wrong. I didn't expect... I didn't expect..."
She didn't expect her constitution to be so weak.
I didn't expect to expose myself.
"Don't tell my aunt, she's so busy. If she knows I'm sick, she'll definitely be heartbroken." Jian Yunong grabbed Huo Jincheng's hand, "You..."
Her gaze suddenly froze.
All her coquettish words were silenced.
Jian Yunong withdrew her hand, "Do whatever you want."
She instantly became cold.
"You should take a look at yourself. Do you want Grandpa to break your legs?"
Jian Yunong's eyes showed disdain.
"Stay away from me. With my nose this stuffy, I can still smell the perfume on you."
Huo Jincheng went to the bathroom and noticed a bright red lipstick mark near the collar of his shirt.
It was incredibly gaudy.
