Chapter 629 - She’s Not Sick



Chapter 629: She’s Not Sick

“Sleep.” Lu Yi placed his hand on the hot water bottle before tucking her in and dimming the lights, leaving only a dimly lit one that could serve as a nightlight.

Feeling the warmth on her stomach, Yan Huan could feel her entire body starting to relax as her eyelids drooped, drifting off into slumber almost instantly. She was blessed to have Lu Yi with her in this life because no one had ever treated her so well besides her mother and Yi Ling.

She honestly did not know how she would continue living if she did not have Lu Yi.

Luckily, she had him. She still had him.

Lu Yi had woken up a few times throughout the night to feel the hot water bottle on Yan Huan’s stomach. Seeing that the temperature was getting somewhat lower, he got up to boil some water and changed the water in the bottle before placing it on Yan Huan’s stomach again.

When Yan Huan woke up, her stomach still felt warm and she let out a breath of relief. She knew that it would not hurt as much after getting through today.

The housemaid in her house had brewed brown sugar ginger soup for her to drink daily and would continue to do so until next month where she would probably start to feel better.

“Aunty Lu, when did Lu Yi leave?” Yan Huan asked the housemaid. Since she had slept very deeply yesterday, she had only realized that Lu Yi was gone after she opened her eyes and did not even know what time he left. The only thing she knew was that there was already no warmth on Lu Yi’s side of the bed when she touched the surface, only his scent remained. It was still the same pine scent, but even then, it was already very faded. Yet, that might also be because he was so busy that he did not even have the liberty to lie down for very long.

“Mr. Lu went out pretty early, about six o’clock in the morning,” replied the housemaid as she brought out food from the kitchen.

“Mr. Lu told me to make this, he said it’s your favorite.”

“Thank you.” Yan Huan picked up a slice of toast and started eating. Picking up the glass of milk next to her and bringing it to her lips, the sweet fragrance of the milk washed away the taste of ginger that lingered in her mouth. Remembering how long she would need to continue drinking that, she was involuntarily hit with a wave of nausea.

She quickly drank another mouthful of milk and continued to eat her toast.

All she wondered about now was how Lu Yi was doing and if he already ate. He was really too busy recently, hence she could not afford to disturb him, because she knew why he was busy.

He may have been busy now, but soon enough, he would save hundreds and thousands of people.

However, for some reason, she felt a constant sense of insecurity, as if everything was off after meeting that fortune teller.

Sip by sip, she drank the milk.

The fragrance of the milk did not help wash away the worry in her heart, but instead it only served to make her feel more melancholic.

Standing up and walking into her room, she came out with a hot water bottle in her arms. The water was still warm despite a full day and night have passed, which should not have been the case at all. It must have been Lu Yi who had woke up to change the water inside during the night.

Heading into the kitchen to change the water in the hot water bottle, she hugged it in her arms once more before returning to the living room and placing it on her stomach.

that was when her phone rang.

It was Yi Ling

“Huanhuan, it’s me.”

Yi Ling’s voice always sounded happy no matter when she heard it.

Life now was great and Yan Huan was happiest at the fact that Yi Ling had settled down and started a family where she would never meet scum-like men again.

“I’ll head over in a bit with Little Lei to see you. Pretty sure you haven’t seen him in weeks, he’s grown a lot now and the difference is astounding.”

“Alright,” Yan Huan agreed as she hugged the hot water bottle. Of course she welcomed them, but after hanging up, she felt a small sense of disappointment and sadness. Showing off your kid every day, have you ever thought about how a childless woman would feel?

It was really cruel.

However, she could technically be considered as having a child since Little Lei was her godson.

Soon after, Yi Ling arrived with Little Lei in tow.

“Aunt… Aunty.” Little Lei might have been young but he had sharp eyes, and he absolutely loved pretty things which included beauties like Yan Huan.

“Come here, let your godmother give you a hug.” Yan Huan embraced Little Lei in her arms and as expected, he had gotten taller and fatter during the few weeks that she had not seen him. No wonder people said that young children grew up fast.

The changes were obvious even just after a few weeks.

He was taller, plumper, and his little face had grown rounder, but his stubby limbs were still like lotus roots where they were white and tender. There was a pretty hefty gold bracelet on his little chubby hand which chimed whenever he clapped his hands.

Moreover, the sound it made was loud and clear, so the adults would know if he was awake and running around the place.

Yi Ling pinched her son’s face lovingly as she said, “Your Lu Yi asked me to come over. He said that you haven’t been feeling well recently and that you were staying at home alone. So what happened? Is anything the matter? Are you sick?”

“It’s nothing.” Yan Huan played with Little Lei as he smiled from ear to ear and hopped around joyfully. The only problem was that he was a little too energetic, so much that Yan Huan felt like her bones would dismantle if she had to jump around with him for an entire day.

“Do you want to go get a checkup at the hospital?” Yi Ling was still worried and wondered if Lu Yi was just too dense. He had obviously known that Huanhuan was feeling unwell, but he still did not care to give her attention. Did Huanhuan marry the wrong man?

“There’s no need.” Yan Huan touched Little Lei’s small face. Playing with him, just the two of them, was really fun. Children were so innocent that they somehow just had the ability to help people forget about their worries.

“Why not?” Yi Ling stood up, “You’re not going to the hospital despite being sick? How long are you going to drag this on? Why are you so afraid of going to the hospital, Huanhuan? Are you…”

“No.” Yan Huan stopped Yi Ling’s wild imagination, “Stop letting your imagination run wild, I’m really not sick. Unless you consider period cramps as a sickness.”

Yi Ling’s lips twitched. “So you’re saying that you’re not feeling well because of your period?”

“What else?” Yan Huan raised her eyes at her. “It’s not like you don’t know that I’ve always had this problem.”

“It’s been so long, why hasn’t it gotten better?” Yi Ling sat down, feeling relieved because Yan Huan was not sick. However…”It’s been years, why is it still so bad? Did you seek treatment or take any medicine?”

“I was too harsh on my body back then, so I deserve this.”
