Chapter 42 -42 Hospital (3)

Seeing his wife’s sparkling eyes, Lu Xiaoting’s handsome thin lips rose high, his eyes and brows all carrying a smiling expression.

He nodded, lightly uttering a sound of agreement.

Susu was momentarily dazed by the man’s smile and blurted out, “You look so good when you smile, why don’t you smile more often?”

“Hmm?”

Lu Xiaoting raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised, but still nodded seriously, “Okay, I’ll smile more from now on.”

Susu’s gaze firmly met the man’s, who was full of smiles, and as she listened to his deep magnetic voice, a blush gradually spread across her fair little face.

In a moment of embarrassment, she turned to leave, but her hand was suddenly grabbed.

“Wife, don’t go.”

Struggling with her arm fiercely for a while to no avail, Susu resentfully glared at the man and sat back down.

Watching the little one with puffy cheeks like a small squirrel, Lu Xiaoting was just about to speak when his mother suddenly arrived.

“What’s the matter? Did you make Susu angry?”

Without waiting for her son to reply, Mrs. Lu raised her hand and slapped him.

Lu Xiaoting winced in pain with a hiss, probably a palm imprint had already formed from his mother’s Iron Sand Palm.

With a wry smile, “Mom, what are you doing? I didn’t do anything.”

“Didn’t do anything? How come your wife’s cheeks are so puffed up?”

Mrs. Lu glared at her son with her dry hands becoming restless.

Lu Xiaoting hurriedly cast a pleading look at his wife, or else, with his mother’s temper, he would definitely receive a few more Iron Sand Palms.

Looking at the man’s eager dark eyes, like a little guy, Susu stopped grinning.

“Mom, the doctor just came for a check-up and said Lu Xiaoting is recovering well.”

“Oh really?!!!!!!”

Seeing her daughter-in-law nodding, Mrs. Lu, delighted, immediately forgot to settle scores with her son and hurriedly called Father Lu to report the news.

Watching her mother-in-law hustle, Susu raised an eyebrow at the man.

“See? My mom is on my side, so don’t think about bullying me, or I’ll let mom take care of you.”

Looking at his little wife with her chin lifted and a smug expression on her face, Lu Xiaoting chuckled.

He nodded repeatedly, agreeing, “Yes, yes, of course, I wouldn’t dare.”

Susu blinked her large eyes, a strange feeling spreading.

“Uncle.”

As soon as he entered, Xiao Yu dashed to the bedside like a whirlwind, his eyes fixed on the bandages on the man’s leg.

“Why are you here?” Lu Xiaoting patted the little guy’s head.

Xiao Yu frowned, his voice childishly concerned, “Xiao Yu is worried about Uncle’s injury, so Aunt brought me here.”

“Uncle, does it still hurt?”

“Xiao Yu, good boy, Uncle’s not in pain anymore.”

“Uncle, are you thirsty? Can Xiao Yu get you some water?”

The little guy was about to grab the teapot.

Amused, Susu pressed Xiao Yu back onto the chair, “Just sit here and talk to Uncle; Aunt and I will handle these things. Besides, you are still so young. What if you don’t hold the thermos steady? These are filled with freshly boiled water; what if you get burned?”

“If you get hurt, our whole family would be worried.”

Xiao Yu pursed his lips and nodded, “Okay, Xiao Yu understands. Aunt, Uncle, just call Xiao Yu if you need anything, alright?”

Listening to the conversation between the young and the old, Lu Xiaoting didn’t interject and just quietly watched the two.

“Xiao Lu.”

All three looked up simultaneously just to see two police officers in uniform walking over.

“Director Wang.”

“Xiao Lu, lie down quickly. Don’t jump onto your wound.” Director Wang immediately reached out to stop Lu Xiaoting, who was trying to get up.

“How are you doing? Today, we are here on behalf of the department to visit you.”

“Director Wang, much better,” Lu Xiaoting nodded.

Susu, due to the original owner spending a short time in the Family Court and her own pickled goods business which had her leaving early and coming back late every day, had hardly met other officers and didn’t remember them much.

She quickly offered the stools she and Xiao Yu were sitting on to them, worried about disturbing their conversation, greeted them, and was ready to go out and wait.

“Little Lu’s wife, there’s no need, we’ll just talk for a moment and leave.”

As soon as Director Wang finished speaking, the officer behind him passed malted milk, brown sugar, and White Rabbit Creamy Candy to Susu.

Susu was startled and immediately waved her hands to refuse, but Director Wang said it was a small token from the department. Seeing Lu Xiaoting nodding, she then accepted them.

“Director Wang, about that case—”

Lu Xiaoting hadn’t finished his sentence when Director Wang interrupted him.

“Xiao Lu, you made great contributions in this case, and the department has decided to commend you.

However, the most important thing for you right now is to relax and heal. As the old saying goes—’it takes a hundred days to recover from bone and muscle injuries.’ During your recovery, your salary will be issued as usual.

Your only task is to take good care of yourself and try to recover quickly so you can return to work.”

“Yes.”

Seeing the man still staring at the door, Susu quickly warned him that if he didn’t heal properly, she would immediately get his parents involved, and then he wouldn’t dare disobey.

“What? Am I wrong?”

Seeing the man’s deep gaze fixed on her, Susu put her hands on her hips and puffed out her small chest, her large eyes glaring at the man.

Lu Xiaoting couldn’t help but laugh softly at how adorable his wife was.

“No, I’ll listen to my wife.”

Susu glared; this man always somehow made it seem like she was being bossy and domineering.

Xiao Yu looked at his uncle on the bed and then at his pouting Aunt, his face full of melancholy.

He ran to the front of the hospital bed, his voice soft and milky, “Uncle, you have to behave, heal well, and you can’t make Aunt angry, okay?”

Hearing this, Susu immediately lifted her chin proudly with a coy look.

Seeing the unified front of the two, one big and one small, Lu Xiaoting was very aware of the situation.

“Xiao Yu, Aunt is going back to cook, are you going with Aunt or staying with grandma in the hospital?”

“Hospital, I’ll help grandma take care of uncle.”

Looking at the little guy’s serious face, Susu smiled and affirmed the little-adult-like Xiao Yu.

“Good, then grandma and uncle are both relying on Xiao Yu.”

Xiao Yu nodded solemnly, “Aunt can be at ease.”

Mrs. Lu patted Xiao Yu on the head, smiling as she admonished her daughter-in-law.

Susu’s eyes inadvertently met Lu Xiaoting’s, hearing his voice in her ear.

“Be careful.”

Family Court

The entire Family Court was filled with the aroma of chicken, tantalizing the adults and children alike.

“It must be coming from the Lu Family again,” an old lady smacked her lips.

“Definitely, these past days, Little Lu’s wife has been making bone broth and chicken soup, trying all kinds of ways to nourish her man.”

“That Little Lu’s wife is really too extravagant, with meat and chicken soup every day. Lu Gong’an’s salary must be getting squandered,” an old lady sneered.

“The point is, if my man were injured and hospitalized, I’d certainly nourish him every day too. What if he doesn’t recover well? If the pillar of the home falls, what would become of the whole family?”

A group of old ladies and young wives nodded in agreement, “That’s true.”
