Chapter 67: Gambling at the dining table

It wasn't that Xia Ning did n' t want to move. It was just that his legs were numb. As soon as he walked, he could tell that something wasn't right. When the door was closed, Xia Ning took a difficult step and moved to the sofa to sit down. However, these actions took almost a minute. 2

The butler didn't send much and it was very light. However, it was enough Xia Ning solve the problem of hungry stomach. After eating, Xia Ning returned the tableware to the kitchen and did n' t dare to alarm anyone. After putting down the tableware, he slipped back into the room, afraid of encountering Shao Qingheng again. Before dinner, the doctor came over and gave Xia Ning another examination. The result was very good. It was no longer a big problem. He only needed to rest for a few days. Shao Qinghen, who was beside him, had a slightly relaxed expression. It wasn't as gloomy as when he first came out.

After the team returned, dinner was soon ready. Before dinner began, the team grabbed Xia Ning and asked a few questions. They were filled with concern. With such a warm team, Xia Ning mood was a little better, not as conflicted as it was during the day.

No one spoke at the dining table. In front of the Xia Ning, there were two dishes that were relatively light, but Xia Ning had already eaten a few meals. Looking at the two dishes that looked even more delicious, they felt that the food in their mouth was tasteless.

Just as he was about to reach out his chopsticks, he wanted to grab the plate of pickled fish that was the furthest away from him. However, just as he picked it up, he was slapped back by a pair of chopsticks.

Xia Ning frowned and saw Shao Qinghen reach out to grab the pair of chopsticks. The person in question took back the chopsticks as if nothing had happened. He turned his hand and picked up a dish in front of Xia Ning and placed it in her bowl." You can't eat anything that is too greasy or spicy right now."

His tone was stern, as if he was reprimanding him, but he could not hide his concern. Xia Ning curled his lips and withdrew his hand. He swallowed back what he had wanted to say and pursed his lips.

When Shao Qinghen smiled, she froze again. Because Xia Ning had picked up another dish and started eating it again. He had never touched what he had given him.

The Xia Ning silence made the atmosphere of the dinner turn strange again.

When the originally quiet group heard Shao Qinghen's words, they did n' t care about the rules of not saying anything." Mommy, if you're sick, you have to listen to the doctor." He looked a little adult.

The old lady at the side spoke for Xia Ning," Didn't the doctor say just now? He's recovered quite well. It should be fine to eat a bit now."

Shao Qinghen had been watching Xia Ning from the beginning until the end. She looked cute like a child. Shao Qinghen felt like coaxing a child as he picked up the fish that he had just taken away. He felt a headache coming on.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry and put it into Xia Ning bowl." Alright, then eat less. Once you recover a little, you can eat whatever you want."

Xia Ning eyes and attention had been focused on the fish that Shao Qinghen had slapped. Only when Shao Qinghen had placed the fish in her bowl did she recall her gaze from the fish with satisfaction. However, she sensed a burning gaze and raised her head to meet Shao Qinghen's eyes.

Was he staring at her?

In that case, he had already discovered the gaze she had cast at the pickled fish, right? Xia Ning felt his scalp tighten and he broke out in cold sweat. He hurriedly lowered his head to eat.

Shao Qinghen couldn't help but laugh when he saw her actions.

It seemed that some people finally showed signs of calming down.

The dining table became quiet again, but it also changed a little. Xia Ning no longer looked down at the dishes, occasionally looking up. He looked back at Shao Qinghen. Although he did not want to look at Shao Qinghen, it was much better than before.

Shao Qinghen, in particular, caught a trace of gentleness in Xia Ning eyes. She was even more delighted. Did she not reject him so much?

The atmosphere of the two of them had changed, and even the atmosphere of the dining table had changed. Although the little bun couldn't feel it clearly, he could still feel a little interaction between his father and his mother. The old lady looked at the little couple in understanding and was filled with joy.

The dinner was over in this harmonious atmosphere. Xia Ning was about to return to her room when Shao Qinghen, who was sitting next to her, grabbed her hand and instinctively tried to break it away. However, taking into account the presence of Tuonzi and the old lady, he relaxed his hand.

Shao Qinghen noticed that the corner of Xia Ning mouth curled up slightly." Let's go for a walk together. Why do n' t we just stay inside?"

What was Shao Qinghen thinking?

Why did he have to do such boring things? He was taking a walk!

Thinking back to how he used to curry favor with him, Xia Ning felt disgusted and refused.

"It's cold outside. I do n' t..." She didn't want to be alone with Shao Qinghen, so she wanted to hurry back to her room.

Shao Qingheng cut her off immediately." So, hurry back to your room and get some thick clothes to put on. We'll take a walk together later." Knowing the meaning of the rejection in Xia Ning words, Shao Qinghen frowned and decided to block the road. He knew that the old madam and the regiment were her weak points. In front of the two of them, Xia Ning wouldn't make a fuss with him.

At this moment, Tu Zi and the old madam's gazes were also focused on the hands that they were holding. Xia Ning could even feel Tu Zi's eyes filled with anticipation.

As expected, in order to not disappoint the child, Xia Ning opened his mouth and thought for a while." Alright."

He went back to his room to find a down jacket and put it on. Xia Ning, who had originally planned to go out, paused when he passed by the dressing table. In the mirror, he was so haggard that it made people pity him. It was obvious that his face was pale because of his illness, and his hair was still a bit messy. Xia Ning was stunned.

When she thought of how she was still at the dining table and how angry she was because of a fish, Xia Ning face turned red. She felt like she had no face to go out! Furthermore, she wasn't reminded by anyone. That man was laughing at her! Xia Ning felt all sorts of upset.

She quickly put on a light makeup and a bright lipstick to hide her haggard face. He finished packing and went downstairs.

When Xia Ning arrived in the living room, Shao Qinghen and Tuan Zi were already waiting for her. She stood beside Tuan Zi and held Tuan Zi's warm hand to separate Shao Qinghen.

Shao Qinghen noticed it and raised her eyebrows. She carefully sized up the woman with a faint smile on her face. After a while, the old lady also put on a dress from upstairs.

The four of them walked out of the Shao household together. The snow on the side of the road had yet to melt. The group walked while playing with the snow, while Xia Ning supported the old lady. Shao Qingheng walked behind him, his hands in his pockets.

"Daddy, you should lead the party." Shao Qinghen lowered his head to look at the little guy and raised his head to look at the Xia Ning.

At this moment, Xia Ning unconsciously turned around and met his gaze.
