"Don't touch me . "
His response was a firm rebuff from Xinghe .
Mubai wasn't angered, instead, he felt inexplicably joyful .
He had touched her before… well, they did have a son together, and she never once put up such a forceful resistance .
This meant that she didn't like him touching this borrowed body of hers…
Could it be that she is jealous?
Mubai pulled back his hands and said with a wicked smile, "Alright, I will not touch anyone for now . "
He was telling Xinghe he would not get close to either her or Xia Meng .
After all, getting close to either would be equally weird for him . Xia Meng, was at the end of the day, someone else's wife and that complicated a lot of things .
AdvertisementHowever, Xinghe had a more straightforward way of looking at things . She didn't mind getting into whoever's body as long as her consciousness was still Xia Xinghe .
Of course, her original body would be best .
The car finally reached the Xi family's old mansion .
Mubai explained, "I have someone watching over her, and I still haven't exposed her . "
"She must have an idea of what's going on," Xinghe added .
Mubai nodded in agreement, if she didn't know what was going on she wouldn't have known to immediately assume Xinghe's character as soon as she recovered .
Therefore, it was logical to assume she knew this would happen .
The car stopped in front of a small villa . Mubai got out from the car to open the door for Xinghe .
Mubai observed the effort Xinghe exerted to pull herself out of the car with her incapacitated leg and he asked with concern, "Do you need a wheelchair?"
"No," Xinghe rejected him politely . If she couldn't overcome a small adversity like this then she really would be a cripple .
"She is just inside, let's go in," Mubai said as he gave her a hand .
"Daddy—" A child's voice called out suddenly . It was Lin Lin . He probably ran over from the main house when he saw Mubai's car crossed the gate .
Hearing his sudden childish voice sent a tremor throughout Xinghe's body .
She turned and saw Lin Lin in a white t-shirt and sports shorts running their way .
The little fella ran into Mubai and turned his cute face up at him and asked beseechingly, "I also want to see Mommy . "
This morning, when Lin Lin heard the news that Xinghe had woken up, he was incredibly happy .
He had tried multiple times to get into her room but was stopped by the maid every time .
This was because Mubai had secretly given her the order that no one was to see Xinghe in person .
Therefore, Lin Lin had been waiting for Mubai to return, that way he could see his mother with him .
Mubai rejected the little fella's request firmly, "You can't see her yet, go home for now . "
"Why not?" Lin Lin frowned unsatisfactorily . "They said she has woken up, so why can't I see her?"
"Because the doctor said she is still not feeling so well, temporarily no one is allowed to see her . When she's feeling better, you can be with her as long as you like . "
Lin Lin narrowed his small eyes at Mubai . "Then, why can you see her?"
"Because I've already taken the vaccine shot," Mubai lied with a straight-face, "She has contracted an infectious disease . "
Perhaps he was imagining it but when he said that, he felt Xinghe glared at him unsatisfactorily .
Lin Lin's face was full of worry . "What kind of disease, is it serious?"
"A little bit, but it is curable . Go accompany great grandfather for now, don't come here anymore without my permission . "
"But…"
"No buts . If you are still so stubborn, I will forbid you from seeing your mommy even after she recovers . " This was the first time Mubai assumed such a harsh tone against Lin Lin, at least in Xinghe's presence .
