In the past, there wouldn't be any spicy dishes on the dining table. However, Lu Jinshen had specifically instructed Auntie Zhou to find out what Tong Qiao liked to eat. Since Tong Qiao liked spicy food, Lu Jinshen had asked Auntie Zhou to add some chili to the dishes.
"What's wrong with not eating hairtail?" Tong Qiao looked at Lu Jinshen and asked, "There's only a little chili in this dish, and you can't eat it?"
"I can eat it." Lu Jinshen's expression was indifferent as he brought a piece of hairtail to his mouth.
Sheng Yufei shouted anxiously, "Jin Shen, you're allergic to fish …"
"Take good care of Ziqian. Eat well," Lu Jinshen interrupted Sheng Yufei.
Sheng Yufei's face was like a color palette, with many expressions. In the end, she looked at Tong Qiao, and a sharp, cold glint flashed across her eyes. It was so fast that there was no trace of it.
Auntie Lin opened her mouth to say something, but she looked at Sheng Yufei and then at Tong Qiao. In the end, she didn't say anything. It was time for Yufei to know that she and Jin Shen were divorced. Jin Shen was going to suffer.
Auntie Lin immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks and went into the kitchen.
After dinner, Sheng Yufei looked at Lu Jinshen worriedly. "Do you want me to go to the hospital …"
"No need. You can go back. I won't send you off." Lu Jinshen calmly interrupted Sheng Yufei.
Sheng Yufei looked as if she had eaten a fly, but she quickly regained her elegance. "Okay, then I'll go back." With that, she waved at Lu Ziqian. "Ziqian, come to Mommy."
Lu Ziqian ran to Sheng Yufei and said reluctantly, "I want Mommy to stay with me."
Sheng Yufei glanced at Lu Jinshen, who was expressionless and had no intention of persuading her to stay. She bent down and stroked Lu Ziqian's head, coaxing him softly, "Mommy has to go to work tomorrow, and it's too late for me to stay here. I'll come back to accompany you after I rest, okay?"
Lu Ziqian stretched out his pinky with a serious look on his face. "Pinky promise."
"Okay, pinky swear." Sheng Yufei and Lu Ziqian's pinkies intertwined. After making a pinky promise, Sheng Yufei patted Lu Ziqian's head. "Be good and listen to Daddy, and …"
Sheng Yufei paused and looked at Tong Qiao. "Don't cause trouble for Auntie. Auntie has a baby in her belly. You can't be naughty anymore, okay?"
Lu Ziqian lowered his head and didn't make a sound. He was obviously very unhappy.
"Ziqian." Sheng Yufei put on a straight face and pretended to be angry.
Lu Ziqian nodded his little head reluctantly. "Okay."
"Good boy." Sheng Yufei lowered her head and kissed Lu Ziqian on the forehead. "Goodbye."
Lu Ziqian waved his hand. "Goodbye, Mommy."
After Sheng Yufei left, Lu Jinshen went upstairs. Lu Ziqian sat in the living room, watching cartoons and playing with toys.
Auntie Lin went into the kitchen during dinner and didn't come out. No one knew what she was busy with.
Tong Qiao had nothing to do, so she helped clean up the dishes. She didn't know how to cook. In the past, when she was with Shuxin, it was always Shuxin who did the cooking and she did the dishes, so it was very easy for her to do this.
When Auntie Lin saw Tong Qiao entering the room with the bowls and chopsticks, she quickly put down what she was doing and took the bowls and chopsticks from Tong Qiao's hands. "Hey, why did you do it? Put it down, put it down. Don't worry about it. I'll clean it up later. "
Tong Qiao smiled. "It's okay. I have nothing to do anyway. You do what you need to do. I'll wash the dishes."
"No, it's okay. I'll be done soon. Even if you weren't pregnant, I wouldn't let you do these things."
"It's really okay. I can't cook or clean, but I can wash the dishes."
Auntie Lin looked at Tong Qiao with fondness in her eyes. This girl was frank and honest. When she was unhappy at the dinner table, she actually said it out loud. Now, she even said that she only knew how to wash the dishes and not cook or clean.
Such a straightforward girl was very likable, unlike Sheng Yufei, who looked elegant and generous on the surface and knew how to do everything, but had a lot of scheming thoughts. In the past, Sheng Yufei had never done things like washing dishes. She would only cook for Lu Jinshen when he was at home in a virtuous manner.
"If you really want to help, can you help me give the medicine in this clay pot to Jin Shen?" Auntie Lin said as she poured out the medicine in the clay pot.
Tong Qiao caught a whiff of the medicine and frowned. "What's wrong with Chief Lu? Why does he need to take medicine? "
Auntie Lin stared at Tong Qiao for a few seconds before saying, "Jin Shen is allergic to hairtail fish. After eating it, he will have rashes all over his body. Moreover, the hairtail fish just now was spicy. I'm afraid he's feeling terrible now."
"Ah?" Tong Qiao exclaimed. "He's allergic to hairtail fish?"
"Yeah."
"Then why did he still eat it?"
"Because you were the one who picked it up." Auntie Lin smiled.
Tong Qiao was speechless. Was this man crazy? But why was her heart beating so fast?
Tong Qiao carried the medicine upstairs to the study room. She knocked on the door and entered after getting permission.
She pushed the door open. Lu Jinshen was sitting at the desk and reading some documents. He asked without looking up, "Auntie Lin, is the medicine cold?"
"I put it in cold water to dry. It's just right."
Lu Jinshen sensed that something was wrong and looked up. "Why is it you?"
"Why can't it be me?" Tong Qiao placed the medicine on the desk. Her gaze landed on Lu Jinshen's slightly open collar. There was a red rash, and even his face was a little red. "Are you stupid? Why did you take it when you're allergic? "
Lu Jinshen had been reading some documents to distract himself. At this moment, his body was extremely itchy. Without another word, he picked up the medicine on the table and drank it in one gulp.
Tong Qiao saw that he didn't even frown when he drank the black and smelly medicine. She was not afraid of anything, but she was most afraid of taking medicine.
When she was young, she had a serious illness and drank Chinese medicine for more than half a year. It had traumatized her. Now, she felt uncomfortable just by smelling the medicine. That was why she was so unhappy when Lu Jinshen gave her medicine on her birthday.
Tong Qiao conjured a candy and handed it to Lu Jinshen. "For you."
Lu Jinshen frowned slightly. "What are you doing?"
"Keep it in your mouth. This way, it won't be bitter in your mouth." In the past, Tong Qiao would throw a tantrum every time she drank medicine. Later, Tong Wenbin thought of a solution. Every time she drank medicine, he would give her a candy. The sweetness of the candy would reduce the bitterness in her mouth.
"I don't need it."
Tong Qiao peeled off the candy and handed the white candy to Lu Jinshen's thin lips. "Since I'm giving it to you, just eat it. Why are you being so pretentious? Open your mouth."
Lu Jinshen's deep gaze landed on Tong Qiao's fair fingers. Perhaps it was because she had been in contact with the computer for a long time, her fingers were especially slender and beautiful.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a candy before? Hurry and open your mouth. "Tong Qiao said in annoyance.
Lu Jinshen opened his mouth and put the candy into his mouth. Naturally, his lips touched her fingers. It was as if an electric current had passed through his body. The image of him kissing her body that night instantly surfaced in his mind.
Tong Qiao didn't realize that her kind gesture had caused ripples in a certain man's heart. "Don't force yourself next time. You're making me feel guilty. You were the one who ate it. I didn't force you."
