Chapter 129 Coaxing her

Lu Ji rolled his eyes at her and said, "That's it for this time. From now on, you have to drink the medicine obediently."

After saying that, he sighed and put the bowl of medicine back.

Qin Xiaoning saw that he had a gloomy face, so she leaned forward and smiled at him in a flattering way: "Are you angry?"

Lu Ji rolled his eyes at her and said, "We agreed that you should take your medicine obediently from now on."

The girl nodded hurriedly and kept making promises to him, but the man lost his patience and went to the bed to change his clothes and get ready for bed.

It seems that he was angry at her for being ignorant.

The little girl made small talk: "Why do you want to go to bed so early? Are you not staying up to celebrate the New Year?"

Lu Ji was undressing himself and replied in a deep voice: "Why do you want to stay up all night? You have just recovered, can you make it through the night?"

As he spoke, he looked up at her and said in a commanding tone, "Come and sleep."

The girl knew best how to advance and retreat. Seeing that the man was angry, she immediately restrained her arrogance and followed him to bed obediently.

The lights could not be turned off on New Year's Eve, and she couldn't sleep for a while. Seeing his cold face, the girl clung to the man like an octopus.

"Are you really mad at me?"

The man lowered his eyes and glared at her, his thin lips slightly parted: "Then tell me, why did I make you angry?"

Because she refused to take her medicine properly.

Every time he took the medicine, he had to put in a lot of effort, which was a great amount of endurance for Lu Ji, who always lacked patience.

"How should I know that?" the little girl teased him intentionally.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ji turned around and ignored her.

It became quiet beside him. After a while, she came close to him again and said to him with a playful smile: "I've already told you that you don't have to worry about taking medicine in the future. Today is a holiday, so please accommodate me for once."

As she said this, she blew air into his ear playfully.

Lu Ji resisted the itch and said with a straight face, "Then you have to keep your word and don't bother me about this anymore."

She nodded hurriedly.

He began to reason with her again: "This epidemic is so dangerous, so many people have not recovered yet. Look, Fifth Miss looks much better than you, but she is so sick that she can't even get up. How can you take medicine and stay healthy? If you have a relapse, you will be fine."

He was talking, and her cherry lips suddenly blocked his mouth, blocking all the words he had yet to say.

He responded to her greedily for a while, then stopped in time.

The little woman blushed and whispered in his ear: "Don't want it yet? I know you've been thinking about it for a long time."

In the past, this guy used to have sex several times a night, but ever since she got sick, he hasn't had sex even once and has been a vegetarian for two months.

Lu Ji pushed her away and frowned, "I'm not well yet."

She acted coquettishly towards him: "It's okay now, just be gentle."

The man raised his eyebrows when he heard that. The girl thought he had changed his mind and was about to come closer, but he gently pushed her away.

"No." He raised his hand and tucked the corner of the quilt for her: "Get well first, don't think about this all day long."

The little girl blushed: "Who thinks about it all day?"

"I'm not doing this for you." She turned around and hummed, "You don't know how to appreciate kindness."

The little guy was still weak after recovering from a serious illness. He was chattering with him one moment and fell asleep the next.

Lu Ji closed his eyes and glanced at the fireplace. Seeing that the charcoal fire was a little weak, he got up and went downstairs again. Worried that calling someone in would disturb her, he added more charcoal into the fireplace. Seeing the flames licking the fireplace and burning brightly again, he returned to bed.

The little girl was weak and couldn't stand the cold. Before lying down, he raised his hand and gently tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and then he fell asleep peacefully. When Qin Xiaoning opened her eyes, the sun had already shone brightly into the house through the window lattice. It was already noon. She slept too deeply and didn't know that Lu Ji had gotten up early in the morning. She was about to call someone to help her get up when she heard a familiar sound of footsteps coming from outside.

It’s Lu Ji who’s back.

Qin Xiaoning closed her eyes again.

With a creaky sound, the door was pushed open, and Lu Ji tiptoed to the bedside. She felt him looking at her, and closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

After a while, a small piece of dried apple was stuffed into his mouth.

It can be seen that Lu Ji had seen through it.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people eat dried fruits to bring good luck.

Apple symbolizes peace and safety.

Qin Xiaoning closed her eyes and chewed and swallowed, and Lu Ji stuffed some dried lychees into her mouth.

This sweet thing has always been Qin Xiaoning's favorite. She took it in her mouth, chewed it and swallowed it, and said vaguely without opening her eyes: "I want more."

Lu Ji stuffed the dried fruit into her mouth again. The little girl chewed it and suddenly opened her eyes: "I don't eat oranges. They are too sour."

As he said this, he spat out the dried orange in his mouth and threw it on the table beside the bed with disgust.

Lu Ji glanced at her with a doting look on his face: "Eat both lychees and oranges, it means 'auspicious'."

She turned her head and looked at him: "I only eat lychees, you can eat the oranges for me." As she said that, she raised her hand to pick out the dried oranges from the dried fruit box in Lu Ji's hand and fed them into his mouth: "You eat it for me, it's also a good omen."

Lu Ji smiled and ate it, then asked her, "Are you still unwilling to get up?"

She was scared at the thought of having to take medicine when she got up.

The little girl made an excuse and said, "I feel a little tired, I want to be lazy for a while."

Lu Ji saw through her thoughts, but he didn't expose her. He coaxed her and said, "I asked them to make a lot of new clothes for you. Amber has already brought them over. They are now outside. Why don't you go out and take a look?"

Wearing new clothes during the Chinese New Year is also a tradition.

Ever since she entered the mansion, Lu Ji would have someone make new clothes for her every New Year.

The little girl was used to a life of luxury and had no interest in fancy clothes.

She lay on the pillow and asked him lazily, "What colors are they cut?"

"There are all kinds of colors. I specifically asked that all bright colors be cut out for Ning to wear."

The man patiently coaxed her: "In the new year, my An Ning will be more beautiful."

The little girl was finally happy.

She opened her arms to him, and Lu Ji leaned down gently, letting her climb onto his neck and act coquettishly.

After being bored for a long time, she bit his ear and said, "I still don't want to take the medicine."

Lu Ji's body suddenly stiffened, and then he sat up: "No."

When the little girl saw his cold face, she immediately felt aggrieved, tears welled up in her eyes, and she expressed her grievances one sentence after another.

It's the same old story. I can't swallow the bitter medicine. I've been taking it for several months. I feel like vomiting when I see it.

This time Lu Ji didn't show any mercy. He got up and went outside. After a while, he came back with the bowl of medicine.

Standing beside the bed, she glanced at the crying kid lying on the bed with a cold gaze, and an unquestionable voice came down from above her, suppressing her.

"Either you get up and drink it yourself, or you force yourself to drink it."
