Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Song Ci had picked a gift for Lu Gan. She also bought a lot of clothes and watches of similar design for the children.

By the time Song Ci reached home, she was carrying big and small bags.

Lu Gan knew that Song Ci would be buying gifts for Lu Suo and Song Yujin today. He even offered to go with her, but she refused.

Song Ci’s rejection made Lu Gan feel skeptical.

‘Is she trying to buy something for me as well?’

With that thought in mind, Lu Gan stopped insisting on following Song Ci.

‘I wonder what she’ll buy for me?’

Lu Gan also went to the mall when Song Ci was out. He wanted to get her a gift too.

Su Youcheng, Huang Hao, and Mi Qilu were willing to help Lu Gan with gift hunting. However, Lu Gan was extremely picky.

Mi Qilu asked sarcastically, “Young Master Lu, what exactly do you want to buy?”

Lu Gan replied, “Something that is worthy of her.”

“Are you talking about yourself? Just take a shower tonight and lay in bed for her. I bet she’ll be happy.”

“…”

Lu Gan looked at Mi Qilu with disdain.

“Maybe you should read in your spare time.”

Mi Qilu was displeased.

“Am I wrong? Aren’t you worthy of her?”

Lu Gan fell silent. Mi Qilu’s words were not exactly wrong.

Huang Hao suddenly thought of something and was surprised.

‘How long have these two been married? They still haven’t done the deed?’

He asked in a careful tone, “You two… Ahem… Haven’t done anything yet? Are you serious?”

Lu Gan turned his head.

“I asked you to come and help me pick a gift, not discuss my marriage.”

“Really? Not yet?”

Mi Qilu was shocked. He looked at Lu Gan from head to toe.

“Brother, do you have trouble with your… manly part?”

Lu Gan really wanted to beat Mi Qilu.

“Huang Hao, throw him out.”

“???”

Huang Hao quickly covered Mi Qilu’s mouth.

“Shut up. There’s definitely no problem with our brother’s manly part!”

Mi Qilu was shocked. He simply asked a question. Why did Lu Gan react so defensively? Was there actually something wrong with his manly part?

Huang Hao muttered, “Love and respect. Be respectful to those you love.”

Despite that, Huang Hao could not help but ask, “You’re not really planning to wait until your legs are completely healed, right?”

Lu Gan smiled.

“So you also want to be thrown out?”

“I was just asking! What if it takes you more than ten years to recover? When will the two of you become a real couple…?”

Lu Gan had thought about this. He knew that Song Ci was a hardworking, kind, and likable person. A bright future awaited her. Could he bear to chain her by his side? What if she regretted her current decision?

Obviously, Lu Gan did not want to be Song Ci’s source of regret. He held himself back so Song Ci could think properly.

Lu Gan also felt frustrated. After all, he was still a man.

Moreover, if Song Ci ever fell for anyone else, Lu Gan would not be able to take it.

Unfortunately, their marriage was not based on love at the beginning. Both of them had their own motives.

Lu Gan slowly fell for Song Ci, but he could not demand her to reciprocate.

Additionally, his current physical condition was simply not ideal.

Lu Gan stared at his legs and said to Huang Hao, “Let’s go to the hospital later.”
