Lu Boyan looked at his daughter in his arms, but that did not prevent him from hearing the conversation between Su Jian’an and Xiao Yunyun.
He looked at Su Jian’an with some doubts and calmly said, “Have I changed?”
Su Jian’an hurriedly said, “Your appearance hasn’t changed a bit!” After a pause, she added, “You’re still as handsome as before!”
After listening to Su Jian’an’s words, Xiao Yunyun silently added the words in her heart, “After the birth of Xi Yu and Xiang Yi, Lu Boyan’s appearance is the only thing that has not changed. Other aspects of him… have reversed!”
However, since the couple was talking, she, as a single woman, had better step aside to seek shelter. Otherwise, she would be exposed to an unexpected disaster—their love for each other.
Not long after, Tang Yulan brought Su Jian’an and Lu Boyan’s dinner and asked Xiao Yunyun to taste the soup.
Xiao Yunyun’s face was full of unwillingness. “Auntie, I don’t want to drink, I really don’t want to.” She didn’t have a baby. Why did she have to drink the tonic soup that only those who just gave birth to babies drank?
Tang Yulan offered Xiao Yunyun a bowl of soup and said, “You live alone in that place, and there is no one to take care of you. You must haven’t eaten well. Otherwise, how could you be so thin? I feel sorry for your mother. Come on, drink the soup to nourish your body!”
Xiao Yunyun couldn’t refuse her kindness, so she took the soup and drank it slowly.
Su Jian’an suddenly remembered something and asked Xiao Yunyun, “What has your mother been busy with recently?”
Su Yunjin had been here once since the two little guys were born. Other than that, she had only called Su Jian’an, saying that she had been busy recently and would visit her after she was discharged from the hospital.
However, Su Yunjin had no business at home and she didn’t have many friends. What on earth was she busy with?
Xiao Yunyun was also depressed. She shook her head and said, “I don’t know, either. Sis, I haven’t seen my mother for a long time, let alone you. She also said to me that she was busy, but… I don’t understand why she is so busy here.”
Lu Boyan could roughly guess what Su Yunjin was busy with, but it was improper to reveal it, so he had to change the subject and let Xiao Yunyun go back with Tang Yulan later.
Xiao Yunyun was happy to have a companion on the way. She nodded happily and said, “Okay!”
After dinner, Tang Yulan and Xiao Yunyun did not stay for long and left before nine o’clock. Only Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an were left in the suite, along with the two little fellows who were not asleep yet.
Xiyu had always been very cute and quiet, and he only liked to eat his fists, but it was usual that he would be discovered and stopped by Lu Boyan before he could swallow it.
Lu Boyan stopped the little boy several times, thinking that he had already gotten rid of this habit. He didn’t expect to see him eat his fist again today.
He bent down and pointed his slender fingers at the little fellow’s fist. “No.”
Xiyu blinked his eyes and slowly put down his fist. He smiled at Lu Boyan like an obedient baby.
Lu Boyan kissed his forehead as a reward. “Good boy.”
Su Jian’an said, “In fact, when you are not in the hospital, he was not like this at all.”
Lu Boyan seemed to find it interesting and raised the corner of his lips. “He will be like this only when I come back?”
Su Jian’an nodded. “I paid extra attention to it. If he can’t see you, he is basically not interested in his fists.”
Lu Boyan looked at the little boy for a while and picked him up from the bed. His forehead was pressed against Xiyu’s intimately, and his voice was full of indulgence and affection. “Did you do it intentionally, huh?”
The little baby kicked his leg in Lu Boyan’s arms and uttered a syllable vaguely, “Um…”
Lu Boyan took it as admittance and kissed him on the face with a smile. He took over the milk bottle from Su Jian’an and shook it in front of the little guy. “Are you hungry?”
“Umpf…”
The little guy could still only utter vague syllables, but in Lu Boyan’s ears, it was the most beautiful music in the world.
After drinking half a bottle of milk, Xiyu slowly fell asleep in Lu Boyan’s arms. Su Jian’an had already comforted Xiangyi to sleep. The two siblings were lying side by side in the two baby beds. Lu Boyan stood by the bed and felt that this was the most beautiful scene he had ever seen in his life.
Lu Boyan turned his head and kissed Su Jian’an’s lips.
The unexpected kiss caught Su Jian’an off guard. She looked at Lu Boyan confusedly and asked, “Why?”
“Jian’an, thank you.”
Before Su Jian’an could react, Lu Boyan wrapped his arms around her waist and deepened the kiss.
His kiss was particularly gentle. He tasted her lips bit by bit, slowly absorbed Su Jian’an’s taste, and induced her to open her teeth with the tip of his tongue, breaking her defense little by little…
Just when Lu Boyan was about to start conquering and taking over her senses, Su Jian’an pushed him away. Her face was red, which was an implication that she was not used to it. “Xiyu and Xiangyi are right here!”
Lu Boyan’s hands, which were around Su Jian’an’s waist, did not loosen. Instead, he tightened his grip.
He smiled and said, “They were asleep, but… even if they woke up, they wouldn’t understand.”
Su Jian’an deftly avoided it, and Lu Boyan’s warm lips swept across the corner of her lips. She scolded with a half-real smile, “You bullied them.”
Lu Boyan said, “Well, I can still bully them now.” By the time they were a few years older, he would have no chance to bully them even if he wanted to.
After that, Lu Boyan did not give Su Jian’an any chance to escape. He held the back of her head and kissed her lips, wantonly enjoying her sweetness.
This kiss was sweet and long-lasting…
It was not until Su Jian’an was almost out of breath that Lu Boyan released her. “Where’s your medicine?”
His voice was low and attractive. In such a dark night, there was an indescribable deadly temptation in his tone.
His eyes were even more deep and mysterious, like the vast night sky of stars, or like a vortex attracting people.
It was as if Su Jian’an was standing at the edge of a whirlpool. She was intoxicated in his voice, teetering, and almost fell into his eyes.
But having been married to Lu Boyan for so long, Su Jian’an had more or less developed some immunity to him. She barely responded, “Want it? What do you want?”(The word “Medicine” and “Want” have the same pronunciation in Chinese)
Lu Boyan’s lips were curled into a smile. “I’m asking you. Where’s the medicine? I’m not asking you whether you want it or not,” he said, stressing each word with a deeper meaning.
Su Jian’an’s face suddenly turned red. She would raise all of her limbs to swear that she had never been so embarrassed in her life.
“Where’s the medicine? Want it or not?”
“How could she hear it wrong? What was she thinking about?”
Su Jian’an was so embarrassed that she struggled for a moment. “It’s in the drawer, I’ll get it…”
Her cheeks seemed to burst into two pieces of clouds, which made her peach blossom eyes look more innocent and charming. Lu Boyan’s breathing became heavy and rapid suddenly…
He had forgotten how long it had been since the last time he saw Su Jian’an like this.
But no matter how much time had passed, she could easily make him lose control.
Unfortunately, this was not a good time to lose control.
Lu Boyan could only restrain himself and kiss on Su Jian’an’s lips even though he hadn’t had enough of it. Then he let her go.
Su Jian’an almost ran away out of embarrassment. She lowered her head and walked a few steps to open the drawer of the bedside table and took out the medicine from it.
Two bottles of medicine were used on her wound. They were both sprays. It was said that one bottle could help the scalpel heal, and the other bottle could make the scars fade.
Somehow, Lu Boyan had already come over. He took the medicine from Su Jian’an’s hand and said, “Go change your clothes first.”
Su Jian’an’s face was still red, and she didn’t dare to look at Lu Boyan. She kept her head lowered and went to the bathroom.
Su Jian’an washed her face with warm water and changed her clothes. The blush on Su Jian’an’s face finally dissipated a lot, and when she came out of the bathroom, she finally dared to face Lu Boyan calmly.
Lu Boyan lifted the quilt and motioned to Su Jian’an. “Lie down.”
“Lie down?”
Su Jian’an subconsciously looked at Lu Boyan, and her face was full of surprise and shock. “Ah?”
She looked ignorant and innocent as if Lu Boyan was going to do something bad. Lu Boyan narrowed his eyes with deep meaning. “I am going to change the medicine for you. What are you thinking about?”
“I…” Su Jian’an coughed guiltily. “I’m thinking… how are you going to apply it on my wound…” Lu Boyan had nothing to say when she explained in his way, right?
It turned out that Su Jian’an underestimated Lu Boyan’s boldness.
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows, and there was a fascinating smile on his lips. “How do you want me to get it changed?”
With a “bang—” sound in her mind, Su Jian’an’s face, which had just cooled down, exploded into two high-temperature halos. She pushed Lu Boyan. “Stop it! Otherwise…” She stared at Lu Boyan, wanting to say something but stopped on second thought.
Lu Boyan asked calmly, “Or what?”
“Or—” Su Jian’an pursed her lips and said quickly, “Otherwise, you will be the one who would be upset in the end!”
Sure enough, Lu Boyan instantly understood the deeper meaning of her words.
For the first time, Lu Boyan nodded affirmatively. “You’re right.”
Su Jian’an felt that things would not be so simple and could not help the desire to retreat. “So?”
“So, lie down.” Lu Boyan paused for a second and said, “I’ll help you change the dressing. When it’s done, I’ll take a shower.”
Too many bloody tears were still vivid in Su Jian’an’s mind. She still did not dare to believe that Lu Boyan would let her go so easily. She stared at him doubtfully. “You…”
Lu Boyan finished Su Jian’an’s words. “If you continue to look at me like this, it will really make me do something before I leave.”
Su Jian’an immediately stopped talking and lay down obediently.
The pajamas she was wearing were made of loose silk. Lu Boyan lifted the hem of her shirt, and the centipede-like wound was presented in front of him.
The deep meaning in Lu Boyan’s eyes and the teasing smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared in an instant.
Although he no longer remembered the scenes of Su Jian’an’s operation frequently, this scar was the evidence that Su Jian’an had given a lot for him and the children.
He would probably never forget it for the rest of his life.
Su Jian’an was lying there and vaguely noticed that Lu Boyan’s look had become abnormal. She could not help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
Lu Boyan took over the spray. “Nothing.”
He pointed it at Su Jian’an’s wound and gently pressed the spray. The brown liquid with the fragrance of medicine sprinkled on Su Jian’an’s wound, and white foam emerged.
It was the effect of anti-inflammatory ingredient of the potion.
Lu Boyan’s movements became very light, and he asked while spraying, “Does it hurt?”
“No, it doesn’t hurt. You can spray it with a light mood.” Su Jian’an felt funny. “Even if it hurts, it’s useless for you to spray it gently. When your movement is gentler, it’s only the bottle in your hand, which will feel less strength.”
Lu Boyan picked up the other bottle of medicine and pressed out hard, and the medicine sprinkled on Su Jian’an’s wound like mist.
“Mm,” Su Jian’an said. “It feels cool. It’s very comfortable!”
Lu Boyan felt speechless.
