Chapter 513: From Pretending to Sleep to Pretending to Be Sick

At this time, on the other side, at Nanfeng Mansion.

Tang Xiaowan had just finished replying to the message when she heard footsteps. She quickly hid her phone and continued to take a nap.

The half-closed bedroom door was pushed open.

"Hey, stop pretending, it's me." Leng Lingxiao came in and placed a plate of qingtuan next to the bed. "These four are made with egg yolk, and these four are made with meat floss."

"I knew it had egg yolks. Grandma and the others couldn't finish it. It's so good."

Leng Lingxiao turned around and poured a cup of scented tea.

"Eat slowly. Come, drink some water."

"No, I won't have to go to the bathroom and get caught by grandma."

"Grandma isn't that boring."

"Oh, okay."

If Leng Lingxiao hadn't arrived in time, she would have had to go hungry until tomorrow morning.

Tang Mei had indeed added a drug that made her fall asleep quickly into the tonic soup. Tang Xiaowan smelled it, but she decided to play along and pretend she didn't know.

She knew that her grandmother was afraid that she would go to Jincheng in person and avenge her mother regardless of the consequences.

"Wow, it smells so good, you should eat it too!"

"I ate too much at noon."

"Oh, then I'll eat it all!"

"It's hard to digest too much."

"I know, I'll just eat four."

Leng Lingxiao watched quietly, his eyes almost welded to his little wife's face, full of doting.

Love that depends on each other is the most touching.

In fact, the two have known each other for fifteen years and have been married for almost a month, but Leng Lingxiao still feels like he is dreaming.

She was his wife and he was her husband, and he could finally be close to her with a legitimate reason.

"By the way, grandma didn't say anything, did she?"

"They said we need another injection."

"Why?" Tang Xiaowan's beautiful eyes widened. "Hasn't it been acupunctured? My back still hurts. Grandma is such a fool."

"Let your husband rub you, and it will cure all diseases."

When he was with his young wife, Leng Lingxiao was always smiling and trying to tease her.

"You...shouldn't you go home?"

"Catch me?"

"We can't break the rules. We agreed not to see each other for six days. Then... Grandma will have to..."

Leng Lingxiao's kiss fell suddenly.

Although the stay this time was shorter and not as passionate as before, it was still full of affection and a bit of reluctance to part.

"Tangtang, I..."

"what happened?"

"It's just a small reward."

"Tsk, you rascal!"

The feeling of just having a taste of it made him unable to stop, and saying this made him feel even more unsatisfied.

"Rogue? You said my husband is a rogue?" Leng Lingxiao curled his thin lips slightly, and then another kiss fell, "Is there such a handsome rogue in the world?"

"Hate it, hurry up and go."

"You pushed me away after you took advantage of me. Isn't that a bit too cruel? At least I helped you cover up in front of grandma... How about I call grandma over?"

The sight of his burning eyes made her heart flutter, and if she didn't chase him away, something bad might happen.

"Oh, I'll give it to you in a few days."

A sly smile flashed across Leng Lingxiao's lips.

"That's better. Let's go. Call me if you need anything. I promise... I'll be there whenever you call."

Tang Xiaowan smiled sweetly: "Yeah."

"If, I mean if..."

"Don't worry, I'm not someone you can easily mess with."

"Okay, that's good, let's go."

Leng Lingxiao understands her best and knows what she wants. His love for Tang Xiaowan is to protect and indulge her at the cost of his life, and he is willing to cover everything for her.

……

Twenty minutes later, a black business car slowly drove to the main building of Nanfeng Mansion.

Li Fugui hurriedly greeted him.

"Mr. Li, please come in."

At the same time, Chen Xin handed the two boxes of wild ginseng to Li Fugui with a smile. This was Li Zishen's first visit to Nanfeng Mansion. Whether it was the carefully crafted bonsai or the simple furnishings, he felt familiar with it.

He couldn't help but think of the Qingcheng Plum Garden.

"The old lady is still meeting guests in the tea room. The master and the gentleman have gone to the tea garden. Mr. Li will probably have to wait for a while... Please have some tea first."

At this time, two servants had respectfully placed the tea and cakes on the mahogany coffee table.

"Where's Xiao Wan? Is she also meeting guests?"

Li Fugui shook his head: "The young lady is ill."

When he heard that he was sick, Li Zishen's heart suddenly tightened and he unconsciously clenched the teacup.

"Have you seen a doctor? What's going on?"

"I caught a cold. I guess it's because I didn't cover myself properly at night. Huangcheng is much colder than Chicheng. I didn't eat lunch and I've been sleeping. I feel groggy."

Chen Xin: As expected, I guessed it right!

"I want to go upstairs to see her. Is it convenient?" Li Zishen's gaze slowly turned to the second floor.

Li Fugui: You know it’s inconvenient, but you still ask?
"This requires the young lady's consent."

"You come up with me."

Chen Xin: "..."

Hey, people have said so much, why don’t you listen to my advice?

A man in love has an IQ of zero!

No, no, no, Brother Shen is not like that. Brother Shen was just impulsive and was too worried about Miss Tang.

"Sorry, let's wait until the young lady wakes up."

As soon as Li Fugui finished speaking, Uncle Quan came quickly and walked straight to his side.

"Let Mr. Li go up."

"The lady hasn't woken up yet."

The implication is that he cannot be allowed to go up.

"This is what the old lady meant."

"Yes." Li Fugui nodded awkwardly, "Mr. Li, please, come this way."

"Okay, I'm done."

Chen Xin continued to stay in the living room.

His intuition told him that the skinny old man in front of him must be no ordinary person. When he came over just now, there was not even a sound from his footsteps.

On the other side, at the corner of the second floor.

"How many days has the medicine been prescribed for? Do I need an injection?" Li Zishen asked with concern.

"No, Miss is most afraid of taking medicine."

"Oh, so that's it."

During the time he was recuperating in Li Garden, he had never seen Tang Xiaowan take medicine in person.

Now that I think about it, it was probably poured out.

As the bedroom door was gently opened, Tang Xiaowan was seen curled up in the quilt with only her head sticking out, her face as red as a cooked shrimp.

"Miss, Mr. Li is here, Miss?"

Tang Xiaowan didn't respond.

"Let her sleep, it's okay."

After saying that, Li Zishen went to the floor lamp, sat upright on the sofa, and looked at her quietly.

It must be very uncomfortable. It looks so hot.

If Li Fugui hadn't been standing by, he would have touched it long ago.

Time passed little by little. During this time, a servant came in to serve tea, but Li Zishen's eyes never left Tang Xiaowan.

He knew very well that such opportunities were rare and he didn't know when the next one would come.

"What's your temperature? Don't we need to go to the hospital?"

"I just measured it two hours ago, and it's fine." Li Fugui took two steps forward and said with a firm look.

"You should still consult a doctor."

"Don't worry, the lady's personal doctor is on the first floor. If anything happens, she can come up anytime. I think she will just need another injection tonight."

"Acupuncture? Not small injections?"

Seeing that Li Zishen was a little surprised, Li Fugui smiled and explained: "Miss doesn't like Western medicine."

"Thank you for telling me. No wonder Xiao Wan..."

At this time, Uncle Quan came over quickly, and after standing still, he looked at Li Zishen respectfully and said, "Mr. Li, please move to the study. The old lady wants to see you."

Li Zishen stood up slowly.

He looked deeply at Tang Xiaowan lying on the mahogany bed, his eyes full of worry and reluctance.

"Okay, I'll be there right away. Lead the way."
