Chapter 230 Go Home for the Spring Festival
Ling Tianyi took good care of Xia Xiaoluo on the way. He even carried her home after they got off the car. At this time, the dining room was full of the fresh flavor of the chicken soup and the table was also filled with a variety of delicious food.
“Darling, put me down quickly, I want to eat something.” Xia Xiaoluo stared at the food eagerly.
On the plane, Ling Tianyi asked Xia Xiaoluo to eat a small bowl of carp porridge, but Xia Xiaoluo was a qualified glutton, she rushed into the dining room like a hungry wolf as soon as she saw the delicious food.
“It’s cold today, have some soup first!” Ling Tianyi followed Xia Xiaoluo into the dining room and spooned her a bowl of chicken soup.
“It’s not cold, there is air conditioning in the car!” Xia Xiaoluo picked up a variety of favorite vegetables and threw them into the pot while answering Ling Tianyi.
“But it is still cold on the way from the car to the house.” Ling Tianyi insisted on putting the chicken soup in front of Xia Xiaoluo.
“Err, it took just half a minute, I’m not cold.” Xia Xiaoluo did not want to drink the soup, instead, she wanted to eat vegetables and meat.
Ling Tianyi knew that this soup was the nutritious soup he ordered them to prepare, so he had to make Xia Xiaoluo drink it. He picked up the bowl. “Well, be obedient, let me feed you!”
“All right, all right, I’ll drink it myself.” Xia Xiaoluo took the bowl hurriedly, drinking it when it was cool. She could guess what would happen if she was fed by Ling Tianyi. She chose to drink it herself, and then she could eat delicious food.
Xia Xiaoluo was very satisfied, and she burped. Ling Tianyi laughed, “Stop, don’t eat it anymore. Don’t make your stomach suffer. If you like this kind of nutritious hot pot, we can often eat it.”
“It would be perfect if it is spicy.” Xia Xiaoluo stuck out her tongue.
“When you are better, you can eat spicy food. Now you just need a good rest and nutritious food. I will ask the chef to try to make more delicious tonic which you like best.” Ling Tianyi said and pulled Xia Xiaoluo back to the bedroom, letting her have a rest.
Xia Xiaoluo leaned on the bed, playing the games on the iPad. Ling Tianyi carried a big box into the bedroom. Then he put a dozen mobile phones on the bed.
Xia Xiaoluo was surprised, “Darling, are you preparing to operate a mobile phone company?”
“No.” Ling Tianyi put the phones in a line.
“Why do you have so many phones? Not for yourself, right? You look like a phone dealer now.” Xia Xiaoluo said. She felt that Ling Tianyi looked like a mobile phone vendor, especially like a vendor at the second-hand market.
“Your husband is a big boss, not a small peddler, what a terrible thought you have!” Ling Tianyi shook his head helplessly.
Ling Tianyi suddenly stop joking, he took Xia Xiaoluo’s hands, “Darling, it is my fault that day, I shouldn’t be angry with you and destroy your mobile phone.”
Xia Xiaoluo looked at Ling Tianyi, remembering what happened that day, she felt depressed. However, she smiled immediately. “It’s OK, you just broke the phone, but you didn’t throw me out. Besides, you bought the phone.”
“I have already regretted breaking your mobile phone. If I dare to throw you out that day, I will offer up my life as penance. When you fell downstairs, I was worried about you and I wanted to beat myself up.” Ling Tianyi was very regretful when he recalled the incident that day.
“Darling, don’t lock me up again, I will be sacred.” Xia Xiaoluo looked at Ling Tianyi seriously.
“I won’t do that again, I’m sure.” Ling Tianyi embraced and kissed Xia Xiaoluo, giving her warmth.
“Darling, do you know? When I was young, maybe five or six years old, I broke a bottle of perfume my stepmother liked best accidentally. She locked me up in the attic for the whole night, and I couldn’t get out. It was thundering and raining at that time. However, I cried and shouted, but she ignored me. From then on, I was afraid of being locked up.” Xia Xiaoluo leaned on Ling Tianyi’s chest, telling him the stories about her childhood.
“I don’t know you will be afraid of that. I’m sorry. I promise it won’t happen again in the future. I will not bully you, not be angry with you, and not lock you up, just protect you.” Ling Tianyi felt even more annoyed.
“Darling, I will be very nice to you. I love you very much. So don’t run away again.” What Ling Tianyi feared most was that Xia Xiaoluo was not around, then he could do nothing because he has lost his soul.
“I...” Xia Xiaoluo wanted to promise Ling Tianyi, but she felt worried when she thought of Ling Desheng’s request.
Ling Tianyi dared not to force Xia Xiaoluo to make a promise, although he really wanted to get a promise from Xia Xiaoluo that she would not leave him.
“Well, let’s look at the phones! I know you like mobile phones, you like playing games on it. But I do not know which one you like? You can’t always use the iPhone all the time, so I just ask them to buy all the popular phones in the market, which one do you like?” Ling Tianyi said and kissed Xia Xiaoluo’s nose.
“Ah? Are you serious? Darling, you bought these mobile phones just let me choose one?” Xia Xiaoluo asked in surprise.
“Yes, you’d better stay at home to have a rest now. You could not go out. I am afraid you will catch a cold or get tired. I’m afraid that you won’t like the one I bought causally, so I asked someone to buy all kinds of phones.” Ling Tianyi said with a smile. He was not afraid of spending money, he was not afraid of the troubles, as long as Xia Xiaoluo was happy.
“You are so extravagant.” Xia Xiaoluo shrugged her shoulders.
“Which one do you like?” Ling Tianyi continued to ask.
“I like this one with a large screen.” Xia Xiaoluo picked up a Samsung mobile phone.
“So do I. I will use this one as well. We will use the couple mobile phones.” Ling Tianyi helped Xia Xiaoluo to power on the phone happily, connected the WIFI and downloaded some games which Xia Xiaoluo liked.
Ling Tianyi took good care of Xia Xiaoluo cautiously these days. He let her eat well, drink well, play well and rest well for fear that she could not recover.
Actually, Ling Tianyi wanted Xia Xiaoluo to go to the hospital or sanatorium for several days. But Xia Xiaoluo refused. Then, in the following days, Ling Tianyi didn’t go to work, he regarded it as his Spring Festival holiday. He kept an eye on his wife every day, worrying that if he was ignorant, his wife would run away again.
Xia Xiaoluo was lazy and idled at home every day. Ling Tianyi didn’t force her to study, he did not blame her for her failing the exams. In fact, Ling Tianyi knew that it was good that Xia Xiaoluo was safe and obedient, and he didn’t expect that Xia Xiaoluo could study hard, obtaining high marks in the exams.
Finally, it was New Year’s Eve. Ling Tianyi got up early and prepared breakfast for Xia Xiaoluo, and then he drove her back to the villa. After all, it was the New Year, they should stay with his parents and have dinner with the whole family.
Actually, he investigated a lot these days, and he knew many things. So when he saw Ling Tianxue, he didn’t treat her well. Xia Xiaoluo didn’t like him to punish others, so he didn’t do anything. But something should be investigated and many things were unveiled. If all the things were clearer, he would clarify all the misunderstandings to Xia Xiaoluo.
Ling Tianxue saw Xia Xiaoluo, she wanted to chat with Xia Xiaoluo enthusiastically. But Ling Tianyi didn’t allow her to approach to Xia Xiaoluo. Ling Tianxue couldn’t talk with Xia Xiaoluo because Ling Tianyi took Xia Xiaoluo away.
But this time, He Meishu still took good care of Xia Xiaoluo, but it was not as well as before obviously. These days, He Meishu met Qiao Anna’s aunt again, they had a good talk. It seemed that the two families have made an agreement, just haven’t spoken it out.
Although Ling Tianyi didn’t know what his mother has arranged, he was keeping an eye on Xia Xiaoluo to protect her from Ling Tianxue. He only wanted to have the family reunion dinner as soon as possible and took Xia Xiaoluo back home to spend the Spring Festival only belonging to them at their warm home.
Ling Desheng was in the study, he walked out leisurely when he heard the noise. When Xia Xiaoluo saw Ling Desheng, she shivered instinctively. Then she regained her consciousness quickly. She greeted Ling Desheng respectfully.
Xia Xiaoluo’s action was caught by Ling Tianyi. He was so clever, he felt that there was a secret between his father and Xia Xiaoluo.
“Tianyi, come here.” He Meishu shouted, she could not bear that his son kept his eyes on his daughter-in-law all the time, just like a bodyguard.
“Mom, what’s wrong?” Ling Tianyi held Xia Xiaoluo by the waist, coming together to He Meishu.
“Mom specially made some clothes for you. Come with me and have a try.” He Meishu said.
At that moment, Ling Tianxue came again, “Xiaoluo, I also bought some clothes for you when I went shopping with mom. Just follow me to have a try, will you?”
“OK!” Xia Xiaoluo answered instinctively, “Thank you, mom and Tianxue.”
“Don’t mention it. We are a family. Let me take you to have a try.” Ling Tianxue just wanted to pull her hands. Ling Tianyi said, “Xiaoluo, I’ll accompany with you.”
“Brother, I won’t do anything to her. What are you afraid of? Why do you always stay with Xiaoluo?” Ling Tianxue said deliberately.
“That’s right. Yi, you go to try on the clothes. It’s at home. Don’t be afraid of losing your wife! Something belonged to you would never be robbed by others, but you could not rob anything which did not belong to you.” He Meishu knew that Xia Xiaoluo ran away from home in private, so she was not satisfied with Xia Xiaoluo.
“I will go with Tianxue.” Xia Xiaoluo felt embarrassed, pulling Ling Tianxue upstairs.
Ling Tianyi had no choice. It was in their home, he had to follow He Meishu to try on the clothes.
Ling Tianxue wanted to make use of this chance and persuaded Xia Xiaoluo to leave again. However, the opportunity that Ling Tianxue got with lots of efforts was robbed by Ling Desheng.
Ling Desheng said directly. “Xiaoluo, come to the study with me.”
“I want to go there too.” Ling Tianxue wanted to join them, she wanted to know what Ling Desheng was going to talk with Xia Xiaoluo. Maybe Ling Desheng wanted to give Xia Xiaoluo something valuable. Ling Tianxue wouldn’t agree.
“Just stay there. Otherwise, you will not receive the lucky money at the Spring Festival.” Ling Desheng glared at his daughter to let her leave. Ling Tianxue was still thinking about the lucky money. Although she was in her twenties, Ling Desheng and He Meishu still gave her some money.
Xia Xiaoluo left home in private and came back with Ling Tianyi. She thought that Ling Desheng would be dissatisfied with her and he would scold her. So she was so nervous that her palms began to sweat.
