CHAPTER 705: CHAPTER 707 I’M GOING TO DIE OF LAUGHTER

"They say, ’A married daughter is like water splashed out of the house.’ Little sister, you aren’t even married yet, and you’re already pointing your elbows out," Xu Nian’an said as he re-entered the hospital room, glaring fiercely at Pei Yicheng.

Xu Nianhua’s gaze fell on Xu Nian’an’s belly and said, "Big brother just had some of the porridge I made."

Xu Nian’an: "..."

So outgoing!!!

"Big brother, instead of acting coquettish here like a three-year-old child, you might as well hurry to the factory and help. There are definitely a lot of people coming to buy chili sauce today, and the delivery is surely going to be hectic," Xu Nianhua reminded him.

"I was just about to head there," Xu Nian’an smacked his forehead, gave a quick update to Xu Nianhua, and immediately left for the factory.

Although the chili sauce delivery in South City had just started and it would take a few more days for other counties and cities to begin, today was the factory’s startup day; likely, there were well-informed people planning to buy.

Before this, Xu Nian’an and his family had always stayed in Ningbei and couldn’t help with household matters; now that he was back, being able to do some work was good.

Xu Nian’an left in a hurry.

"Big brother, take it slow," Xu Nianhua watched his hasty retreat, her eyelids twitching with worry that he might fall until he was out of sight. She then walked back to the hospital room, muttering, "Big brother is really something, acting just like a little kid at his age."

"Yicheng, you and big brother really looked like three-year-olds arguing just now," Xu Nianhua said while packing up the lunchbox.

Pei Yicheng reached out and pulled her over.

Xu Nianhua didn’t expect it, and she fell onto the bed. Fearing that she might hurt Pei Yicheng’s wound on his back, she froze, not daring to move.

"I am very possessive, so possessive that I hope the food you make is eaten only by me," he said.

Xu Nianhua saw his magnified handsome face right before her eyes, and his deep, dominant, and affectionate voice entranced her.

"Time to take your temperature," the nurse announced as she entered the room, promptly placing the thermometer by the bed and said, "I’ll come back to collect it later."

With that, the nurse quickly left.

Xu Nianhua’s face turned crimson, and she quickly stood up. She felt as though she had been lying in his arms, caught in the act by the nurse, unsure of what the nurse might think!

"Yicheng, I’m going to die of embarrassment!"

Xu Nianhua glared at him, her face flushing even more at the thought of losing face.

"Wrongly accused, I didn’t do anything just now. Besides, you are my girlfriend, my partner. What’s wrong with holding you openly?" Pei Yicheng looked innocent, his smile lingering at the corners of his lips, his gaze fixed on the shy Xu Nianhua, which made him want to pull her tightly into his arms and tease her relentlessly.

"Time to take your temperature, the nurse will be back to collect it soon," Pei Yicheng changed the subject, fearing he might irritate Nianhua further if they continued.

Xu Nianhua handed him the thermometer.

As Pei Yicheng reached out, he intentionally hissed sharply, as if in pain.

Xu Nianhua, still upset, immediately asked with concern, "What’s wrong? Did it pull on your wound? You’re already injured; you should be resting quietly!"

Xu Nianhua said this as she placed the thermometer under his armpit.

Ten minutes later, when the nurse came to collect the thermometer, Xu Nianhua took the opportunity to hide in the restroom, wanting to avoid meeting the nurse because it would be too awkward otherwise.
