Forced Love: The Villainous Female Supporting Character is Kissed and Cried by the Yandere Villain

Xu Wuning snapped out of her thoughts, and seeing that her father remained silent, she turned her head and asked, "Dad, did you hear what I said?"

Xu Zhenghong certainly heard it, and heard it very clearly.

He felt like the sky had fallen.

He clutched his chest, feeling like he was about to have a heart attack.

He was practically grinding his teeth to powder, but he maintained a kind smile on his face. "Okay, Dad will contact the doctor now and give this little yellow... little boy a full check-up."

Xu Wuning smiled, her eyes crinkling: "Okay, Dad."

She paused, then corrected herself, "But Dad, you always mispronounce his name as 'Xiao Huang.' His surname isn't Huang; it's Lu. You can call him 'Xiao Lu.'"

Xu Zhenghong: "..."

He meant to refer to the blond-haired boy.

He choked, and replied with a forced smile, "...Dad knows."

Xu Wuning turned to look at Xiao Lu Jingci.

Little Lu Jingci was sitting obediently on the sofa, his big, bright eyes looking at her. He was overjoyed to be in this home, and he would occasionally cover his mouth and chuckle.

He was so happy that he forgot he still had an injury on his arm.

Xu Wuning smiled and stroked his head, her voice soft: "Aci, the doctor is coming soon. Don't worry, he will treat the injury on your arm, and you'll be fine in a few days."

Little Lu Jingci grabbed her arm, his childish voice soft and sweet as he laughed, "Thank you, Ningning."

"I'm already so happy to be living with you. I don't need any of what you just mentioned—luxury cars, sweet and sour pork ribs, and nice clothes."

"As long as I can be in the same school as you and spend more time with you, that's enough..."

Xu Wuning grinned from ear to ear, as if she had received some precious treasure, and squatted down to straighten his collar.

"How could that be? Don't worry, if you come with me, I'll give you a good life."

"I'll definitely raise you to be plump and healthy..."

"Don't worry, we'll definitely make things better for you, and you'll get better too."

As Xu Zhenghong listened to these conversations, he felt something was amiss. He felt a throbbing pain in his temples, as if he were about to have a heart attack.

His precious daughter has never cared about anyone this much since she was little. When she was in kindergarten, she was very individualistic and never bothered to play with other children, thinking they were childish.

Now look what's happened, some random, dirty kid is patting my head and straightening my clothes.

Isn't this dirty kid childish too? Why didn't Ningning look down on him?

What kind of bewitching potion did that dirty kid give his precious Ningning?

He took a deep breath, picked up his phone, gritted his teeth, and walked outside, finally free from the fake smile on his face.

He slammed his hand on his contacts, reluctantly dialed his private doctor's number, and spoke in a low, melancholic voice:

"Old Zhou, come to my house right now, immediately."

"Yes, bring the full set of equipment. There's a little boy who needs a full body checkup."

"You ask me where this little boy came from? Don't even mention it. My Ningning picked him up from someone else's house. If he weren't so young, or if he were a bit older, I would have kicked him away."

After hanging up the phone, he paced back and forth outside twice, and couldn't help but peek inside through the crack in the door.

In the living room, Xu Wuning was sitting on the sofa with Lu Jingci, talking about something. The two of them were head to head, the girl laughing so hard she was doubled over, and the boy's eyes crinkled with laughter as well.

Xu Zhenghong looked away, feeling a little strange as an elderly father, like he had drunk a bowl of vinegar from dumplings.

Half an hour later.

Dr. Zhou arrived carrying two medical kits.

The Xu family's living room was temporarily converted into a small clinic.

Xu Zhenghong leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, watching Dr. Zhou give Xiao Lu Jingci a full-body examination with a tense expression.

The stethoscope and various other instruments passed through one by one. Whatever Dr. Zhou asked, Xiao Lu Jingci answered without crying or making a fuss, cooperating exceptionally well.

"Does it hurt here?" Dr. Zhou gently pressed on his ribs.

Xiao Lu Jingci shook his head.

But Xu Wuning reacted even more strongly than him, leaning closer and staring at him anxiously: "Uncle Zhou, please be gentle, he's still just a child."

Xu Zhenghong: "..."

When it came time to examine his arm, Xiao Lu Jingci trembled all over.

Dr. Zhou carefully unwrapped the old gauze, reapplied the medication, and began the treatment again.

Xu Wuning squatted to the side, clutching the hem of her skirt, anxiously staying by her side.

"The arm isn't too serious," Dr. Zhou said as he re-bandaged it. "Children recover quickly; it'll be fine in two weeks."

"The scrapes and abrasions on your body are all superficial injuries, there are no internal injuries, so don't worry."

"He's a bit malnourished. I guess he hasn't been eating properly before. I'll prescribe two injections of nutrition for two days, then switch to oral nutrition supplements. With regular meals for a while, he should be able to catch up."

"Children should never be allowed to skip meals or overeat, as this can easily lead to stomach problems. Let's gradually adjust their diet over this period of time."

Upon hearing this, Xu Wuning felt extremely distressed.

Although Xu Zhenghong still had a stern face, his brows furrowed slightly when he heard the words "malnutrition".

Xu Wuning patted Lu Jingci's head again, comforting him, "It's okay, he'll be fine in a few weeks, don't be afraid."

Xiao Lujing nodded: "Yes, I'm fine, Ningning, don't worry, I know you care about me."

"It's alright, it's alright," Xu Wuning said stubbornly, but as soon as he finished bandaging her, she immediately went over and touched the edge of the new bandage. "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

"You're lying, I clearly frowned just now."

"Well... it'll hurt a little bit."

Xu Zhenghong leaned against the wall, watching his beloved daughter bustling around the boy, handing him water, getting him a cushion, and turning the TV to the cartoon channel for him to watch.

He coughed heavily, realizing that even his own father was thirsty and no one offered him a glass of water.

Xu Wuning quickly turned around.

She felt that her father's expression seemed a little strange, but she didn't think much of it. The children were definitely just having a pure friendship. She couldn't understand Xu Zhenghong's thought process, and she didn't think about it in any other way.

So, at that moment, she still thought Xu Zhenghong was feeling unwell, and she asked, "Dad, is your throat sore?"

"Uncle Zhou, could you please take a look at my dad too? Does he have a cough due to internal heat?"

Xu Zhenghong: "..."

"I'm fine, I just coughed a little, I'm not sick."

"It's getting late, Lao Zhou, you should head back now."

As Dr. Zhou packed up the equipment, she glanced at Xu Zhenghong with sympathy, then leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Mr. Xu, you'd better keep a close eye on your little cabbage. My condolences."

The two have been good friends for many years and often joke around with each other.

Xu Zhenghong glared at him and retorted in a tone only the two of them could hear, "Which eye of yours saw me being sad?"

Dr. Zhou raised an eyebrow, laughed twice, picked up his suitcase, and left.

Xu Zhenghong kicked the air a few times from behind him, as if he were kicking him.

Xu Wuning: ?

Her dad not only looked much younger, but also seemed much more childish, though he appeared quite happy.

Only Xu Zhenghong knew that he wasn't happy at all.

Another half hour passed.

Aunt Liu prepared a table full of food.

On the table.

Xu Wuning kept putting food on Xiao Lu Jingci's plate. First, she put a piece of chicken on his plate, then a spoonful of steamed egg, and then a chopstickful of green vegetables.

She herself didn't eat much, but kept feeding Lu Jingci, "This is sweet and sour pork ribs, you love this, right?"

Lu Jingci's cheeks were bulging from being fed so much. He hadn't had a proper meal in a long time and was really hungry, like a dirty little cat that hadn't eaten in a long time.

His eyes were shining brightly; he never imagined he could be so happy.

His mouth was full, but he still managed to mumble a compliment: "Ningning, you're so nice."

"Of course." Xu Wuning raised her chin and reached out to pick up some food for him.

Xu Zhenghong sat opposite him, holding his rice bowl, and he simply couldn't bear to look at him.

He felt that his precious daughter had barely eaten anything, yet he kept happily feeding that little blond-haired boy, oh no, little Lu Jingci.

He stared at Xiao Lu Jingci with a complicated expression.

Xiao Lu Jingci noticed his gaze and felt a little uncomfortable under his stare, so she slowed down her chewing.

He gripped his overalls with his left hand, his eyelashes trembling. Why was Uncle Xu always staring at him?

Did he eat too much and make Uncle Xu unhappy?

Xu Wuning noticed, put down her chopsticks, and tilted her head to look at her father: "Dad? Why are you staring at Lu Jingci?"

Suddenly, something occurred to her, and she exclaimed, "I know! You want a son too, don't you?"

"If a meal lasts thirty minutes, you spend twenty-nine minutes looking at him."

"Is it because Lu Jingci is too cute? You also think he's very likable, right? Are you just jealous of other people's kids?"

Xu Zhenghong was about to deny it.

Xu Wuning had already turned her head when she suddenly thought of a brilliant idea. She said to Lu Jingci with a serious expression:

"How about this, Lu Jingci, why don't you also acknowledge my father as your father? You can call him 'Dad' too."

Suddenly, Xu Zhenghong spat out a mouthful of rice.

"puff……"
