Chapter 581 - 562: Recover quickly to have the strength to avenge the baby
Qin Mobai remembered when he left in the wee hours, Lou Xi’s face was tightly knit together after falling asleep.
If he didn’t have to personally deal with those two women, he wouldn’t have left Lou Xi at that time.
He had been worrying for quite some time, pondering countless ways to make Lou Xi happy again.
But when he saw Lou Xi sitting half-up in bed, sipping the vegetable porridge Shen Youran had sent over with the maid, Qin Mobai felt even more distressed.
Hearing footsteps, Lou Xi looked up, her pure eyes gazing at the man with a stubble on his chin.
"You’re here!" she said softly, her voice gentle, lacking the usual liveliness, filled instead with a serene calmness. "You haven’t had breakfast yet, have you? The vegetable porridge mom sent is really delicious, have some too."
Lou Xi raised the spoon in her hand, letting Qin Mobai know that the porridge was indeed tasty.
There were only three people in the ward.
Qin Mobai, Lou Xi, and Shen Youran.
Qin Mobai sensed that something was off with Lou Xi, and his eyes subtly shifted to Shen Youran, hoping to find answers in her expression.
Shen Youran met Qin Mobai’s gaze and gently shook her head.
She also wasn’t sure. When Lou Xi woke up in the morning, she wasn’t as agitated as the day before. Her eyes were filled with calmness.
Then she told Shen Youran she wanted something warm to soothe her stomach.
So Shen Youran had the maid make some vegetable porridge and sent it over.
Without getting an answer, Qin Mobai carried a few bags of food boxes and walked over to Lou Xi, "I brought some of your favorite snacks. Want to try some?"
He had just asked the doctor, and apart from spicy and cold foods, Lou Xi could eat anything else.
"Mom, you’ve stayed at the hospital all night, get some rest first. I’ll stay here with her," Qin Mobai said to Shen Youran.
Since Lou Xi changed the way she addressed Shen Youran, Qin Mobai naturally started calling her "mom."
Shen Youran nodded, knowing that compared to her, her daughter preferred her husband to be by her side.
She tenderly tousled Lou Xi’s hair, her eyes full of affection, "Mom is still here with you."
After hearing that, Lou Xi nodded, trying hard to maintain a smile on her face.
Shen Youran couldn’t stay any longer; if she looked at Lou Xi again, she would definitely break down in tears.
She hurriedly grabbed her bag and left the ward. When passing by Qin Mobai, she gave him a profound look.
There was blame, dissatisfaction, but more importantly, a trust in entrusting her daughter to him.
After Shen Youran left, Qin Mobai moved to Lou Xi’s bedside and placed the food boxes he bought on the table in front of Lou Xi.
He opened each exquisite food box, the various aromas wafting into Lou Xi’s nose, a slight smile curving her lips.
"So early in the morning, where did you get all this food?" Lou Xi asked casually, more out of habit than actually caring about Qin Mobai’s answer.
"Your body hasn’t fully recovered, don’t eat too much. If you want to eat, I’ll have the chef make it for you every day from now on," Qin Mobai said.
The two seemed to have agreed not to mention the child at all.
Lou Xi ate a lot, as if eager to return to her previous state.
Seeing her eat too quickly, Qin Mobai had to restrain her wrist, "Lou Xi, that’s enough." He carefully took the chopsticks from her hand.
"I can still eat," Lou Xi said with her mouth full, not yet swallowing, "I need to recover quickly to have the strength to avenge the baby."
Qin Mobai felt as if something had crashed hard into his heart, causing a sharp pain.
He pulled Lou Xi into his embrace, "Leave these matters to me."
