Chapter 219 - I Love You!
Waking up the next morning, Jia Li was too tired to get out of bed. No matter how Fu Hua tried to get her to open her eyes, he failed. She even pushed him away the last time he tried.
Fu Hua saw the time was late as it was already 9 in the morning. He had no choice but to carry her out of bed.
Jia Li didn't bother to open her eyes. She was not afraid he was going to have another go at her because she was ready to bite him if he tried it.
"I'm bringing you to have a bath." He said to her in a gentle voice as he took her into the inner room as went straight for the bathtub.
Since she was naked, he placed her inside the hot water bath. The water was perfect for her skin.
"Are you going to wake up or do you want me to help you have a bath?" Fu Hua threatened as he caressed her face with his wet hands.
Jia Li's eyes flew open and the dark circles around her eyes were obvious. Anyone that saw her right now, would know she didn't have a good night's sleep.
"Don't you dare!" She said in a fierce tone before pushing him away.
Fu Hua chuckled softly when he saw how feisty his little wife was in the morning.
"Why are you angry with me?" Fu Hua asked with a smile as he touched her cheeks and moved them away as quickly as possible before she could hit him.
"I love you!" Fu Hua blurted out without thinking.
When he said that, both of them glanced at each other without saying a word. Jia Li was shocked.
'Did he just say that he loves me?' She asked herself as she gazed at him in search of answers. Too bad that Fu Hua asked her to bath quickly so they could have breakfast together.
After saying that, he placed the anti-slip mat beside the Jacuzzi and left the stunned Jia Li there.
At a point, Jia Li thought she heard wrong but she knew she couldn't have been hearing things.
Jia Li went on to have a bath. She took time herself with getting herself all cleaned up, she also washed her hair.
When she was through, she wrapped herself in a towel before walking inside the closet. There, she saw Fu Hua waiting for her.
"I brought your clothes out for you." Fu Hua said when he saw her as he pointed at her inner wears and dress he left on the seat.
Fu Hua left and allowed her to get dressed before coming back in when she was trying to dry her hair.
He took the hand drier from her and helped her to dry her hair. Fu Hua took his time drying her hair because it was another favorite part of her body he liked.
If not for Jia Li urging him to hurry up because she was hungry, he would have continued to dry her hair for several hours.
Hand in hand, they both went downstairs for breakfast. Jia Li didn't waste time when her food was served. She started eating immediately and hurriedly.
Fu Hua continues reminding her to slow down but she didn't listen. She was so hungry that she could eat him as well.
Not that kind of eating though... 🤧
Fu Hua pitied her and started putting more food on her plate. He guessed that she was very hungry after their intense workout at night.
Jia Li ate till she was not able to move again, so she had to remain sitting and rest for a while before she took her drugs.
Fu Hua didn't run away this time around and could only scrunch his nose while she took her drugs.
After taking her drugs, Jia Li went back to the bedroom and laid on the bed to sleep again, while Fu Hua went straight to the workshop to tidy things up.
He arranged Jia Li's awards on her desk before moving them away as he felt that it wasn't good place. He placed the awards 🏆, certificate and medal in a good position on the shelf there. The shelf had a glass covering, so the awards could still be seen.
Fu Hua glanced at the awards with her name written boldly there and smiled proudly. He was very proud of her.
He remembered when he saw them printing her name on the awards right there in front of everyone.
"Jia Li, I will be at the top waiting for you to get so many awards and reach my height and then we can climb the ladder together, hand in hand." Fu Hua said with a smile.
While Jia Li was still sleeping, gifts from the Fu family members arrived and Fu Hua ordered them to be kept in the workshop.
When Jia Li woke up, she ordered for her graduation cake to be shared and a greater part of the cake went to the Fu house. The remaining part was shared amongst the people with her.
Jia Li did all these without knowing of the gifts the rest of the Fu family members gave to her. After giving out her instruction, a servant followed her to the workshop with the snacks she asked to be brought to her.
Fu Hua was in the workshop looking through documents when Jia Li stepped in with the servants behind her.
"I brought you snacks." Jia Li said as she served him personally.
Fu Hua glanced at the cake and cup of hot steaming coffee she placed on his desk and then glanced at the snacks the servant placed on her desk. He felt that she was cheating on him. But then he thought about the baby and didn't say anything.
He told himself that she was pregnant and had to eat for two.
When the servant left, Fu Hua picked up a file and said to her, "Come and take this, I think it belongs to you."
"Huh..." 😕 Jia Li was stared at him in confusion.
"It's a gift from grandfather, come and have a look at it." Fu Hua explained. The papers arrived in the morning while she was still sleeping, so he kept them for her after taking a look at them.
Hearing it was a gift from the old man, Jia Li got up and walked to his side and took the file from him.. She was very curious about the old man's gift.
