"Okay, I understand."
Hearing the soft, sweet, and obedient voice from the other end, Xuan Mohan's heart melted. He chuckled softly, "Do you miss me? I miss you so much."
As the magnetic words, "I miss you so much," came from the phone, Lan Qianqian's face blushed again. Just as she was about to speak, something was placed near her mouth. "Drink your medicine while it's hot."
Uh...
Alright, she'd drink the medicine first. She couldn't let her little darling's intentions go to waste.
She downed the medicine in the bowl in one gulp and placed it on the small table beside her, then prepared to speak again. "The medicine is a bit bitter. Have a piece of candy."
Then, a piece of candy was placed in her mouth. As she opened her mouth to speak, "Don't talk. It's easy to choke when you talk with candy in your mouth."
Lan Qianqian was completely silenced. Her son was acting a bit strange today...
Xuan Mohan, on the other end of the phone, naturally heard this too. He couldn't help but rub his forehead. He knew this would happen, but who could he blame?
Fearing that if he continued, Han Yu would object, "You've had your medicine, so go to bed early, okay?"
Lan Qianqian felt a pang of guilt. What was wrong with her son today? Before she could speak, a little girl's sweet voice came from the phone: "Don't hang up. Tongtong hasn't spoken to Mommy yet. Give the phone to Tongtong."
"Mommy, Mommy, why aren't you back yet? Tongtong misses you so much." Lan Tongtong grabbed the phone and complained to Lan Qianqian.
Hearing Lan Tongtong's pitiful and obedient voice, Lan Qianqian's heart melted. "Mommy misses you too. Tongtong is the best. Can you play nicely with your brother?"
Lan Lexuan heard this and immediately tattled, "Mommy, Sister isn't good. She's been pestering Daddy to tell her stories."
Daddy? "What Daddy?"
The latter shrunk his neck, glanced at Xuan Mohan, and said nothing. The world revolved around Lan Tongtong. "It's the handsome uncle. He told us to call him that. And Tongtong is very good; she didn't keep asking for stories. Tongtong is going to sleep soon."
So that's how it was. Lan Qianqian felt a warmth spread through her heart. This person was truly... how could she not like him, and how could she not depend on him? She couldn't find another Xuan Mohan in this world.
"Yes, you two be good and listen to... your Daddy." She knew the children had always liked Xuan Mohan, almost innately. Since that was the case, she'd let them have their way.
Yay! Mommy agreed to let them call him Daddy. Does this mean their family will be together soon? So exciting and happy!
They spoke even more obediently, "Mommy, don't worry. Brother and I will be very good and won't cause trouble."
"Yes, Mommy loves you. Goodnight."
After hanging up, she saw Lan Han Yu looking at her, wanting to say something but hesitating. She felt her son was a bit unusual today. Had she been communicating less with her eldest son recently?
"Han Yu, is there anything you want to tell Mommy?" Lan Qianqian asked her steady son curiously.
Seeing his mother's innocent, unaware look, Lan Han Yu shook his head. Mommy didn't need to know these things. He would protect her.
Nothing? But why did she feel like her son had some issues with Mohan? Perhaps she was overthinking it.
"What? I have to lie down for two days!!!"
Xia Han exclaimed dramatically, her hair almost standing on end. She had only gone out for a bit and now she had to lie down for two days? But she couldn't get angry at Doctor Mu. He was so capable. If she said anything to him, it would be embarrassing, so she could only glare fiercely at Lu Haoran.
What had she done to provoke him? Could it be that he was unhappy because he had just kissed her forcefully? Wasn't he kissing and hugging her because he was influenced by her? Lu Haoran touched his nose, feeling a little guilty, and said nothing.
Originally, she wasn't supposed to lie down for two days, but Miss Xia was too restless. As soon as she went out, she caused trouble for him. He suspected that if he let her out again, she would stay with him permanently, so Mu Jingxuan didn't hold back at all. And he saw that these two were progressing well?
After the examination, Mu Jingxuan left. Xia Han's medicine had already been applied today; new medicine would be prepared tomorrow.
The remaining two awkwardly turned their gazes away...
"That..."
"That..."
"You go first."
Lu Haoran spoke before Xia Han. Ladies first. He wanted to hear what she had to say and what her opinion of him was. She didn't reject him, which meant she had some interest in him too?
Thinking this, Lu Haoran felt a little smug. He looked at the person on the bed with a hint of expectation, but unexpectedly...
"That... I'm returning this jacket to you." Xia Han felt a little uncomfortable and didn't dare to look at Lu Haoran, her gaze flickering around, completely oblivious to the change in Lu Haoran's expression.
Because those two men were going to search her, she defended herself desperately, and in the process, Xia Han's clothes were already in disarray.
Her shoulder was exposed, and her chest also revealed a hint of allure...
Lu Haoran stared at Xia Han's body from her neck downwards with such unrestrained and intense gaze. It wasn't that he wanted to be so bold, it was just... he couldn't look away.
After a long while, not receiving any reaction from Lu Haoran, Xia Han looked up in confusion and found him staring at... her?
Following his gaze, Xia Han saw that her exposed state after taking off her jacket was quite revealing, and he... had been looking all along!!!
"Lu Haoran! Get out!!!" A layer of imperceptible dust fell from the ceiling.
Lu Haoran gave an embarrassed laugh. He had never lost his composure with so many women with hot bodies before. He didn't know why he... wanted to look so much. However, seeing Xia Han's murderous glare, Lu Haoran quickly made his exit.
"Ah!" Xia Han roared and threw herself onto the bed. Damn it, why did Lu Haoran always see her at her worst? From tomorrow on, it was best if he didn't appear before her!
However, Lu Haoran clearly didn't hear her inner thoughts. He came over early the next morning, bringing breakfast.
"I borrowed Xuan's kitchen to make this soup for you. It's quite nutritious. I cooked it for two hours. Try it and see if it's good?"
Seeing Lu Haoran's earnest and caring gaze, Xia Han swallowed the "get out" that was on the tip of her tongue.
He could even cook? Disregarding her sarcasm, Xia Han curiously took the bowl. Just as she was about to drink, "Wait, this is still a bit hot. Blow on it first."
He had such a meticulous side too?
She scooped a spoonful and brought it to her lips to blow on it. Xia Han lowered her head to hide the slight smile curving her lips and drank the soup in the spoon in one go. The next moment, her smile froze. Why was there no taste???
She knew he couldn't cook. He was a young master. Finding the kitchen would be good enough for him.
"How is it? Is it good?"
Looking at Lu Haoran's expectant little eyes...
Xia Han's lips curved into a genuine smile. "Haven't you eaten yet? I can't eat this much. You eat too. Finish it all." Saying this, she handed him the bowl of soup.
Lu Haoran felt something was wrong, but Xia Han cared about him! And had she just acted spoiled? So Lu Haoran happily held the bowl that Xia Han had used, brought it to his mouth, and began to drink heartily...
After taking a few big gulps, his mouth froze at the rim of the bowl. The next moment, he couldn't hold it in. "Gag~"
