Cen Shuang asked, “I’m hungry. Do you want to eat something?”
Zhuang Hong did not want anyone to know that he had woken up, so wouldn’t he have to rely on her to bring his meals back to his room every day? Cen Shuang felt that she would be in even more trouble in the future.
Zhuang Hong said, “Bring the food here. You don’t have to eat downstairs either.”
Cen Shuang mumbled softly, “Accompany you during meals, talk with you and sleep with you. I’m not an escort.” Although she was unwilling, she still obediently got up from the bed and slowly walked out of the room.
Zhuang Hong looked at the figure that disappeared out of his line of sight and stayed put. He rubbed the space between his brows and sighed, “The generation gap is so wide!”
Lan Yibai saw Cen Shuang carrying a tray of food and could not help but smile. “If you’re sick, you should eat more. That way, you’ll recover faster.”
Cen Shuang nodded guiltily and hurriedly carried the food upstairs. This was what her son wanted to eat. She often did not eat more than half a bowl of rice from the Zhuang family house.
In the room, Cen Shuang threw herself onto the bed after eating, She pursed her lips in satisfaction. When she saw that Zhuang Hong was carrying a medical kit, she immediately asked, “What are you doing?”
Zhuang Hong did not even raise his head. “I’m applying medicine on your wound.”
Cen Shuang blushed and immediately rejected him sternly. “There’s no need. I can do it myself.”
Zhuang Hong frowned. “You’re not shy, are you?”
‘What kind of joke was that? Why would she be shy? She was afraid of being taken advantage of. After all, Zhuang Hong was already so old. He definitely had more tricks up his sleeve than she did.
Zhuang Hong continued, “In front of a doctor, there’s no distinction between a man and a woman.”
Cen Shuang asked, “Are you a doctor?”
“No, I’m your husband.” Zhuang Hong said this without showing any signs of anger.
Cen Shuang’s face instantly tumed red. As expected, the older man was shameless.
Zhuang Hong said directly, “Quickly take off your clothes. You can’t reach the wound on your own.”
Cen Shuang thought that this hooligan was just playing around. She could not even retort. She knew that a person of Zhuang Hong’s age must be an expert at flirting.
Cen Shuang said angrily, “I don’t need you, I don’t need you.” After saying that, she hugged the blanket and rolled down from the bed. It was too dangerous to be next to an older man, so she should just sleep on the sofa.
Zhuang Hong did not force her when he saw that she was avoiding him. He really let her sleep on the sofa. The sky gradually darkened, and the room was still filled with the faint scent of lavender. The girl on the sofa turned around and frowned uncomfortably.
After Zhuang Hong finished reading the information about Zhuang Corporation, he raised his head and looked at the curled up figure on the sofa. His originally furrowed brows relaxed. During this period of time when he was unconscious, he wanted to open his eyes and see what the girl who nagged him
every day looked like. Under the bright crystal lamp, the girl’s small face leaned against the edge of the sofa. Perhaps it was because she was too tired today, or perhaps it was because she had not recovered from her cold.
Cen Shuang slept very soundly. Her entire body was close to the edge of the sofa, and she was about to roll down. Finally, after letting her head loll for a while, she rolled down to the ground along with the blanket.
Zhuang Hong was stunned. Just as he was hesitating on how to pull her up, he saw Cen Shuang pick herself up off the ground and hug the blanket.
Cen Shuang muttered, “I must have been dreaming again.”
Then, she instinctively climbed onto the bed and continued to sleep.
Zhuang Hong looked at her series of unconscious movements. It was obvious that she was in a daze from the sleep. A brief smile appeared on his pale face.
‘Mu Sensen took a look at Cen Shuang, whose mind was somewhere else. Her fingers were enclosed around a brush. She touched her forehead worriedly. “What’s been going on with you? You still don’t look right even though you’ve recovered from your bout of cold. Did the fever fry your brain?”
Cen Shuang looked like she did not have the words to explain it. In the end, she gritted her teeth and said, “Zhuang Hong has woken up.”
‘Mu Sensen almost jumped up. Fortunately, Cen Shuang pulled her back to her seat. Finally, she asked in a trembling voice, “Zhuang Hong is really awake?”
Cen Shuang nodded and Mu Sensen sucked in a breath of cold air. “Then are you now… officially his wife?”
Cen Shuang said shyly, “What nonsense are you talking about? Zhuang Hong just woke up, so how could his body be fit for that?”
After Cen Shuang finished speaking, she felt her face heat up as well and calmed her mind. Zhuang Hong had been tormenting her for the past few days and she had already forgotten that they were married.
Mu Sensen thought for a moment. “You’re right. Zhuang Hong has been lying in bed for half a year and he probably can’t even stand up now. He definitely won’t be able to do anything to you. Sigh, your innocence can still be preserved for a few more days. After he recovers, I’m afraid that you will properly
become ‘Young Lady Zhuang’.”
Cen Shuang could not be bothered to listen to her nonsense. She turned to look at the others and said, “I haven’t finished my drawing board yet. Is Senior Li not here?”
At the mention of Li Jun, Mu Sensen’s face lost its luster. “I don’t know what our senior has been up to recently. I think he’s been going to the martial arts club’s events.. Do you think that he wants to become a martial arts master and dispense justice?”
