In the banquet hall, there was a pin-drop silence.
However, because of the word 'hubby', Lu Tingxiao heard a deafening roar in his ears.
"This is … Mrs. Lu?" After a while, someone at the dining table finally asked hesitantly.
Lu Tingxiao had already stood up. His tall and slender figure strode towards the girl, his cold gaze landing on the girl's feet. "Why aren't you wearing shoes?"
Ning Xi shrank her toes at his stern gaze. "I wore them … and they fell off on the way …"
"…" Lu Tingxiao's face was stiff as he carried her up.
Ning Xi instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck to steady herself. She then stole a glance at the group of big shots in the banquet hall and said meekly, "Erm … did I get into trouble …? Hubby … hubby, why aren't you saying anything? "
She was really scared!
She had really run around in a daze from sleep. She hadn't done it on purpose!
Ning Xi's adaptability was top-notch and she was already very adept at calling him hubby.
But she had no idea what kind of earth-shattering impact her words had on Lu Tingxiao.
Lu Tingxiao's back stiffened. It took a few seconds for his boiling blood to calm down. He turned to everyone and said, "I'm sorry, everyone. My wife isn't feeling well. I'll make a move first."
Everyone smiled and said, "President Lu, you're too kind! Hurry and go! Don't worry about us! "
"Of course, of course! Of course Madam is more important! "
"They say that men who dote on their wives are reliable. Indeed!"
…
After Lu Tingxiao left with Ning Xi in his arms, there was another round of sighs in the banquet hall. "I didn't believe that Lu Tingxiao would make such a big fuss over a woman. Now it seems that he really dotes on her! Luckily she's fine. If anything had happened, tsk tsk … "
"That's weird. Isn't Lu Tingxiao single? Where did this Madam come from? I've been wanting to ask this since just now! "
"There's nothing strange about it. There are plenty of people who get married secretly! Not to mention Lu Tingxiao's status … "
"Sigh. My daughter has been thinking about Mr. Lu every day ever since she met him. I wanted to find out more about him, but he's already taken!"
"Come on. He can't even snatch a woman from his own country. Do you think it'll be your turn?"
…
In the bedroom.
"Ah! Madam Lu! Where have you been, Madam Lu? You scared me to death! " The nurse who was supposed to take care of Ning Xi just went out for a while, but when she came back, she disappeared. She searched everywhere but couldn't find her. She was scared out of her wits.
"It's fine. Leave it to me."
"Oh, okay, okay!" The nurse shyly looked at Lu Tingxiao and then left.
Lu Tingxiao lifted the quilt and carefully put Ning Xi on the bed.
Ning Xi immediately took credit. "Boss, was I smart just now?"
Lu Tingxiao glanced at her. "You've done more than you deserve."
Ning Xi immediately drooped her head, "I really didn't mean to break in …"
"Your body hasn't recovered yet. Why are you running around?" Lu Tingxiao was simply speechless at this girl. Her leg was already injured to this extent, yet she still had the ability to jump around. She could still jump around happily with one leg.
"Uh, I had a nightmare …"
Lu Tingxiao sighed and explained with a slightly unnatural expression, "This time, I told them that you were my wife because it was convenient to save you. Therefore, during this period of time, you might have to cooperate with us. But it won't be long. When you're feeling better, we'll go back. "
"No problem! I'm good at acting! " Hearing this, Ning Xi immediately patted her chest and promised. "And I can give you whatever type you want!"
