The little boy was sleeping soundly, so she tiptoed out of bed to see what was going on.
When she opened the bedroom door, she saw Lu Tingxiao pouring water, holding his stomach with one hand, and his face looked very pale.
Ning Xi hurried over, "Mr. Lu, are you okay?"
"No problem."
"Uh, do you have a stomachache?"
Lu Tingxiao didn't say anything.
Ning Xi knew she had guessed right.
Oh my god, it turns out that Lu Tingxiao can't eat spicy food. Why would he eat it if he can't eat it
"Wait, I'll get you some stomach medicine."
Fortunately, I have common medicines ready at home.
Ning Xi hurriedly took out the stomach medicine and said, "Take both pills."
"Thank you." Lu Tingxiao took the pill from her palm. His cool fingertips gently slid across it, and the feeling was like slid across her heart, making her feel suddenly numb.
It was a stormy and quiet night, and there was such a beauty in front of him. It was too easy to get things wrong!
Ning Xi recited pi silently for a long time before she calmed down.
Seeing Lu Tingxiao taking the medicine, she couldn't leave immediately, so she stayed with him for a while.
"Are you feeling better? Do you need to go to the hospital? Sorry, I didn't know you can't eat spicy food..."
She was originally worried about the little bun, but in the end the little bun was fine, but Lu Tingxiao was in trouble. What kind of thing was this...
"No problem."
The two of them were silent for a while, and then Lu Tingxiao suddenly spoke up, "The reason I'm bothering you tonight is because Xiaobao wants to see you."
Ning Xi was surprised to hear this, "Xiaobao wants to see me?"
"Xiaobao was frightened in the warehouse and you saved him. He is very dependent on you now," Lu Tingxiao explained.
Ning Xi discovered that whenever Xiaobao was around, or when someone mentioned something related to Xiaobao, Lu Tingxiao's cold and chilling aura would subside a lot, no longer as scary as it was during the day.
"So that's how it is..." Ning Xi nodded.
Perhaps because it was easy to let down one's guard and worries on a night like this, Ning Xi asked a question that had been on her mind for a long time, "Um, excuse me, but does Xiaobao not know how to speak?"
She has never heard Xiaobao say a word so far. The little guy can only nod and shake his head.
"It's not that I can't say it, it's that I don't want to say it." Lu Tingxiao replied.
"Is that a psychological reason?" Ning Xi frowned.
"Yes." Lu Tingxiao did not hide it.
"So..." It was pretty much what she had guessed.
As for what kind of accident had caused the child to have psychological problems and become unwilling to talk, she naturally did not dare to ask further about such a wealthy family's secret.
"Ms. Ning." Lu Tingxiao suddenly stared at her intently. His gaze was obviously cold and indifferent, but it gave her the illusion that it was so hot that it was about to burn her to death.
"Hmm?" Ning Xi was startled by the stare.
"Have we met somewhere before?" Lu Tingxiao asked.
If someone else had asked this question, Ning Xi would have definitely concluded that the other person was trying to flirt with her, and in an old-fashioned way, but the person who was speaking at the moment was Lu Tingxiao, and the confusion in his eyes was real.
"Probably not. If I had met someone like Mr. Lu, I would definitely have an impression of him... Um, is there any problem?" Ning Xi's tone was quite certain. With her status, even when she was the eldest daughter of the Ning family, it was impossible for her to meet someone of Lu Tingxiao's level.
"Nothing." Lu Tingxiao looked away, his eyes reflecting the deep night outside the window, looking a little lonely.
If we continue to be alone like this, the atmosphere seems to be getting a little weird!
"Mr. Lu, if you're okay, I'll go to sleep first?" Ning Xi said cautiously.
Lu Tingxiao seemed to see through her and raised his hand, "No hurry, sit down."
No hurry! She is very anxious!
