Chapter 198: Someone Has Found a New Ally
The topic of the wedding was pushed aside when Butler Gu came to inform them about lunch. Calix carried Leslie to the wheelchair before heading to the dining room, followed by Old Madam Xu on one side.
’Well, well~ Look who’s so considerate and gentle here.’
Once again, Old Madam Xu witnessed something new. She was pleasantly surprised to see how well Calix did when feeding Leslie.
His actions showed no signs of awkwardness, depicting how casual these actions were to him.
"I’m sorry, Grandma... I can’t feed myself yet... I’ll make a mess..."
Leslie bashfully apologized as she noticed how intense Old Madam Xu’s gaze was on her and Calix. Despite not sensing any displeasure, she still felt embarrassed.
"Don’t apologize ah," Old Madam Xu waved one of her hands, trying to soothe Leslie’s concern, "I didn’t expect that Calix would feed you himself. Sure, a husband should do this ah. It’ll be a great way for you to bond."
Leslie blinked before she surreptitiously glanced at Calix. He was scooping another ladle of the fish soup served on the table, pouring the broth into a bowl. He barely touched his own food.
"How could I let another person feed my wife when I’m here, right, Grandma?"
Calix grinned, showing another one of his signature smirks. He put the bowl next to Leslie’s white rice porridge, stirring it with a spoon. The mouth-watering scent wafted in the air, tempting anyone to savor the dishes.
"I have no complaints," shrugging, Old Madam Xu chuckled. She was happy to see more of the spouses’ intimacy, "Leslie, eat more. If you feel drowsy after lunch, feel free to take a nap. Your body needs adequate rest, isn’t it?"
