Chapter 367 - Unable To Keep This Secret
With the doctor's clearance, Lu Xun brought his wife home after she had finished her drip.
Song Xing Xing sat in the passenger's seat while watching Lu Xun focusing on his driving. A faint smile curled on her lips upon seeing the serious look on his face.
The vehicle stopped at the traffic light. Song Xing Xing stretched her arms and held his arms. "I'm sorry. You must be very worried this morning."
Lu Xun glanced at the traffic light and smiled. "Is this matter something that you should be apologizing about? It's not like you chose to get sick." He intertwined their hands together and gave her a gentle squeeze. "Moreover, I am your husband. It's my job to worry about you."
The traffic lights turned green again.
Song Xing Xing leaned on Lu Xun's shoulder as he continued to drive back home.
Lu Xun pulled over at his usual parking spot and walked around the vehicle to help open the passenger's door. Before she could take a step out of the vehicle, Lu Xun had already lowered his body and carried her in his arms.
Her eyes widened in surprise. Because of his sudden movement, Song Xing Xing had to wrap her arms around his neck to stabilize herself.
"What are you doing?" Song Xing Xing blinked. "My body might be a little weak but I can still walk."
"It's fine. Let me carry you for a bit." He tightened his grip around her knee area, not letting her move around in his embrace. "Stay still. Or else you will fall."
Song Xing Xing leaned her head on his chest and let him carry her inside. Fortunately, there was no one around and she was not that shy. Her body swayed with the movement.
Due to her position, Song Xing Xing could only see his strong jaw and his sharp nose. It seemed that he husband looked very handsome from this angle.
Song Xing Xing was appreciating his good look when she suddenly heard a voice greeting them.
"President Lu, Mrs. Lu, you are back."
Song Xing Xing grew embarrassed, knowing that Auntie Wei was watching. She tugged at Lu Xun's shirt, signaling him to let her down. However, the man only held her tighter.
"How is Mrs. Lu? Is she alright?" Auntie Wei shifted her gaze to Song Xing Xing with worry. At this time, she was too worried about Song Xing Xing's health to notice the way the husband and wife interacted.
This morning, she had watched how President Lu carried his wife in panic. Auntie Wei did not know what had happened to Song Xing Xing until her boss called her a while ago and asked her to prepare some porridge and light food.
Auntie Wei began to worry when she heard the situation. Fortunately, her boss had assured her that everything was alright.
"Auntie Wei, don't worry. She's alright," Lu Xun said.
"That's a relief." Auntie Wei sighed. "Then, I will go and prepare some food. President Lu, you should eat too. You haven't eaten anything from this morning."
Song Xing Xing frowned when she heard that Lu Xun haven't been eating since morning.
After exchanging a few more words with Auntie Wei, Lu Xun carried his wife upstairs and entered the room. He tucked her into bed and kissed her forehead. "Rest well."
Song Xing Xing tugged at his shirt before he could leave.
"I'm going to the kitchen to check on your porridge," Lu Xun said. "I'll come over soon, alright."
"While you are heading there, you should make sure to have something to eat as well," Song Xing Xing said. "Auntie Wei said you haven't eaten anything from morning."
"Un." He flashed an assuring smile. "I know. I'll go and eat something as well. Otherwise, how am I supposed to look after you."
Song Xing Xing released her grip from his shirt. "That's right. How about mom and dad? Have they arrived in C Country yet?"
Her parents-in-law departed to C Country yesterday evening. Song Xing Xing guessed that the two of them should have arrived by now.
"Un. I forgot to tell you. Mom texted to tell me that they have arrived an hour ago. She said she'll call once they reached the house. It should be a while before she calls again."
"Don't tell them about me, alright? I don't want them to worry."
"I know." Lu Xun patted her on her head.
Song Xing Xing was thinking that they should not let her family know that she was feeling unwell. However, they were still unable to keep this matter a secret.
Lu Xun was heading to the kitchen and bring some porridge for his wife when someone ring the doorbell. He went to the door and was surprised to find Song Yi and his family standing at the door.
It was then that he recalled that something like this had happened in the past.
Last time, Song Xing Xing sprained her ankle and he had taken her to the hospital.
Later, Song Yi found out about her injury from a friend and had gone to Song Xing Xing's apartment to visit her. Because of that, Song Yi became the first to find out about his relationship with Xing Xing.
Lu Xun thought that this time, the situation should be something similar as well.
Lu Xun opened the door and let the family of three inside.
"I heard that Xing Xing went to the hospital. What's wrong? Is she alright?" Song Yi asked as soon as he stepped into the house.
The air around him turned colder. It was clear that he was upset upon knowing that his cousin was unwell that she had to go to the hospital.
Han Yue Xiu heaved a sigh as he looked at her husband. She tugged at his arms, motioning him to calm down. The two of them came to visit his cousin. Not to cause trouble.
However, the moment the door swung open, Song Yi has been acting as if he came to fight with Lu Xun. This man could be this forceful.
At times, Han Yue Xiu does wonder just how did she fall for this man.
Fortunately, his attitude was not as bad as before they were married. However, Han Yue Xiu could not deny that once anything involved the person he cared about, Song Yi could be a little overboard.
Song Yi's expression turned calmer as he glance at his wife. He lowered his gaze, motioning his wife to take over the situation.
"How is she?" Han Yue Xiu asked.
"She's fine." Lu Xun looked at the family of three and sighed.. "Why don't you come on in first and talk."
