Chapter 309: Chapter 309: Worried_1 Chapter 309: Chapter 309: Worried_1 “How come you’re having a headache again?” Someone put away the joking expression on their face, carefully touching her forehead. “You don’t feel hot! Did you catch a cold? I would have kept you at home had I known.”
Seeing his worried face, Nan Fei felt a sweet warmth in her heart, even though she was about to be aggravated to death by him, she willingly bore it.
Huo Beijiang suspected that his wife was fooling him, but thinking about her soft, delicate expression when she complained of a headache, he chose to wholeheartedly believe her, even if he knew it could be a pretense.
“Never mind, you don’t have to visit your father-in-law. I’ll just drive you home!”
“No need!”
“We can also go to the hospital, and please avoid the wind and stop rushing to school. Take care of your health first. Even if you do not get into university, I will always be there to support you.”
He wore an expression of worry for his beloved.
He was attempting to lead Nan Fei away while signaling goodbye to his brother-in-law. Having deeply been affected by the previous incident of someone falling into the river, he knew this troublesome kid meant the world to his wife.
To his wife, he was even more crucial than her own life.
If he was more important than her own life to his wife, then that made him more important than Huo Beijiang’s life too.
With this thought in mind, Captain Huo suddenly felt that his status had lowered. He, who had always been dominant since childhood, and was referred to as The Great Devil, felt unusually uncomfortable.
“Little brother-in-law, come over here.”
Nan Fei tried to suppress her chuckle hearing the phrase ‘little brother-in-law’ and whispered, “Don’t shout him that casually, be careful or my father will get angry.”
From the ancient times, sons-in-law have always been afraid of their fathers-in-law. The ones who care about their wives too much, are even more afraid of their fathers-in-law.
Huo Beijiang was no exception.
He pursed his thin lips and seemed to be contemplating the consequences of offending his father-in-law. No one knew what the end result of his contemplation was.
All one could see was that his eyes had narrowed in dissatisfaction as he spoke, “Nan Fei, you dare to threaten me. I’ll let it slide this time because you’re sick.”
Nan Fei responded sarcastically, “So, should I thank you now?”
“You’re welcome.”
Nan Fei: “…”
“Honey, let me take you to the hospital! I am genuinely worried about your headache. I’ll only be relieved after checking.”
No matter if it was real or not, even if there was only a one in a million chance, he couldn’t let go of his worries.
Observing his serious demeanor, Nan Fei felt somewhat guilty about her deceit. However, she couldn’t think of any other way to handle him.
“I’m not sick. I’m just worried about Jiang Yang.” As Nan Fei spoke these words, she felt a little embarrassed. She really couldn’t understand how a certain someone could lie without blushing.
“Oh…” As Huo Beijiang dragged the sound, he teased, “Oh, I see! I’m relieved now!”
“What are you relieved about?” Nan Fei asked irritably.
Why wasn’t he playing his cards right? She had made it clear, but he was still pretending not to get it.
