Chapter 304: Lu Jingye Feeds Zi Yi Porridge

The moment the painkillers were developed, Zi Yi could be considered to have grasped the hearts of all the Dou Family members, with the exception of Elder Dou.

She refused their offer of sending her back with great difficulty. When she came out of the hospital and arrived at the parking lot, a car drove over at a fast speed.

Instinctively, Zi Yi took out a ball and threw it in the direction of the car as she dodged to one side.

The car stopped with a screech at a distance of around 1.5 meters away from her.

She then saw a white-haired young man sticking out his head from the window and he seemed to be around her age. “Oi, you’re that Zi Yi?”

Zi Yi chose to ignore such a rude person and turned to walk towards her car.

“Hey! Why did you leave?!”

The young man opened the door and walked towards Zi Yi to stop her. After he sized her up, he said, “You’re indeed pretty, but I won’t believe that you are capable of producing such an advanced robot!”

Zi Yi looked at him as if looking at a crazy man and spat out two words. “Get lost.”

The young man was enraged. “Why are you so rude?!”

Zi Yi revealed a chilly smile. “Little Friend, hasn’t your teacher taught you not to do to others what you would not have them do to you? You were rude to me so why should I be polite to you?”

“I…”

Just then, another car drove over and stopped beside her.

The backseat door opened and revealed Lu Jingye inside.

“S-second Brother! Why are you here?”

The moment the young man saw Lu Jingye, his voice tightened and he subconsciously shrank his neck.

“Yiyi, get in.”

Lu Jingye first spoke to Zi Yi in a gentle voice before he looked towards the young man. With traces of chilliness in his tone, he said, “What are you doing?”

“I– I… I was a little excited at the sight of Zi Yi so I came to say hello…”

The young man retreated as he spoke. When he reached his car, he awkwardly smiled and said, “Second Brother, I’ll be leaving if there’s nothing else.”

He then hastily pulled the door open and climbed into the driver’s seat with the intention of driving away.

Only then, did he realize that his car could not start.

While the young man was about to cry out of anxiety, Zi Yi headed towards Lu Jingye’s car and got in.

After she got in, the car drove away.

“Ah Jing, who’s that guy?” What a weird person.

“Someone from the He Family.”

Zi Yi frowned. Why was it the He Family again?

Lu Jingye titled his head and when he saw her sleepy face, he touched her cheeks. “He’s a child of Fourth Elder He’s mistress and his name is He Zhou. Fourth Elder He has recently been admitted into the hospital and he should have encountered you by accident.”

Speaking of this, he added, “Don’t worry. He’s incapable of causing any trouble.”

Zi Yi nodded and immediately forgot the crazy young man. Her cheeks rubbed against his palms and she cutely said, “Ah Jing, I’m so sleepy.”

She then hugged his arm and leaned her head against his shoulders.

Lu Jingye felt bad for her and held her hand. “Take a short nap first. We’ll eat after we reach home and you can sleep afterwards.”

Zi Yi softly responded with an ok and continued to talk to him.

When she mentioned Dr. Tang insisting on taking her in as his student, she complained. “I didn’t agree to become his student at all.”

After that sentence, her tune changed and she furrowed her brows, appearing rather distressed. “Elder Tang is the most reputed Chinese Medicine doctor in the First Hospital and he’s the best at acupuncture. It just so happens that I’m particularly interested in these two fields. Sigh, his offer is simply hard to reject, but I’m honestly uninterested in other aspects.”

Lu Jingye was amused by the young lady’s distressed expression. He said, “You can choose to learn what you are interested in.”

She was already knowledgeable about a lot of things. In fact, Lu Jingye did not wish for her to learn too much, else it would take a toll on her.

To be honest, Zi Yi also had this train of thought. It was just that she was happy to see Lu Jingye coming over to fetch her and could not help but act spoiled before him.

She originally planned to have a conversation with Lu Jingye, but as she talked, her eyelids became heavier as her head leaned over bit by bit.

Just then, an arm grabbed her shoulders and he pulled her into his embrace.

“Sleep. I’ll wake you up when we arrive.”

Zi Yi responded and really fell asleep.

She did not know how long she had slept, but she was woken up by hunger.

She touched her flat tummy and turned to look at the window. However, the curtains were drawn and she could not see what time of day it was. She finally recalled that she fell asleep in the car and yet, she was currently on her bed.

Just then, the door was pushed open. Zi Yi looked over and happened to meet with Lu Jingye’s gentle gaze.

He walked over to her with a bowl of fragrant porridge. Seeing that she had woken up, he asked, “Are you hungry?”

Zi Yi nodded and asked, “How long have I slept?”

“A whole day.”

“No wonder I was feeling so hungry. What time is it now?”

“It’s nine in the morning.”

Lu Jingye walked to her bedside and sat down, while he said in a worried tone, “You haven’t woken up once since you slept and you must be hungry.”

What Zi Yi did was something that requires brain power. In fact, Lu Jingye had the thought of waking her up in the middle, but she had slept too deeply and he could not bear to do so. In the end, he got his family doctor to infuse some liquid nutrients for her. Only then, did he have peace of mind.

Lu Jingye scooped up a spoonful of porridge and fed it to her.

Zi Yi subconsciously opened her mouth and a smile followed after.

The corner of his lips could not help but curl up at her current appearance.

Zi Yi finally felt alive after she finished the bowl of porridge.

Lu Jingye stood up and said, “Go and wash up first, come down for breakfast afterward.”

Zi Yi nodded and Lu Jingye left the room with the empty bowl.

After she washed up, Zi Yi took her phone and started checking it, only to discover several missed calls and text messages.

They were all from the Dou Family.

Zi Yi first gave a call to Dou Jingning, and he told her, “The newly developed painkillers are very effective. Your grandfather has slept well these last two days. The doctor said that he has recovered much faster due to this.”

Zi Yi responded with an ok and they exchanged a few more words, before hanging up.

Zi Yi came downstairs but did not see Lu Jingye. Even the courtyard was also empty. Just as she found it weird, she saw Lu Jingye and the housekeeper walking in from the front yard.

Lu Jingye headed towards the living room. After the housekeeper greeted her, he headed to the kitchen to fetch breakfast.

Lu Jingye said to her, “Someone went to my villa last night.”

She looked at him curiously. “Who are they?”

“They are from a certain organization.”

“Have you captured all of them?”

“No, we let two escape.”

“Hmm? Are you planning to let them deliver what they stole to the man behind the scenes?”

“Yes.”
