After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 218 Traveling far away

"Don't make a sound..."

Su Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and found that Pei Yuan had one finger pressed against her nose, probably testing her breath.

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him sideways, "What are you doing? Checking if I'm dead or not?"

"no……"

Pei Yuan smiled, clearly a little embarrassed.

"No, I called you to get up and drink ginger soup. Are you feeling unwell?"

Su Xiaoxiao sighed and said, "What's wrong? Can't you tell?"

Yes, Pei Yuan saw that Su Xiaoxiao was feeling much better, but Su Xiaoxiao immediately lay back down, looking like she had no intention of getting up to take her medicine.

Seeing this, Pei Yuan had no choice but to patiently and gently sit down next to Su Xiaoxiao, who had her back to him at the time.

He turned Su Xiaoxiao's body so she was facing him, and said, "Listen to me, get up and drink your medicine."

Having no other choice, Su Xiaoxiao had to accept the ginger soup that Pei Yuan handed her.

If she didn't get up to drink it, Pei Yuan was going to put the ginger soup directly to her lips.

Su Xiaoxiao got up and obediently drank the ginger soup, then showed the empty bowl to Pei Yuan.

"Look, I've finished drinking it."

He looked like a child begging for a reward from an adult, which amused Pei Yuan.

After drinking the ginger soup, Su Xiaoxiao felt her body become warm and cozy, which was completely different from the fever and heat she had felt earlier. Now she felt a comfortable and warm feeling.

Seeing this, Pei Yuan quickly replaced Su Xiaoxiao's towel with a new one. Su Xiaoxiao felt uncomfortable and worried that it was disturbing her sleep, so she prepared to pull the towel off.

Pei Yuan refused, insisting that Su Xiaoxiao's recovery was entirely due to the effect of the ice towel, and so the two began a tug-of-war.

Later, Su Xiaoxiao hid from Pei Yuan by moving directly from her own bed to Pei Yuan's bed.

Seeing this, Pei Yuan had no choice but to compromise.

He put the towel back into the basin and took the basin out.

"Never mind, seeing how much energy you have, you must be almost fully recovered."

Su Xiaoxiao ignored him and continued to bury herself in the blankets.

This quilt belongs to Pei Yuan, and it carries his signature scent.

It smelled wonderfully, but Su Xiaoxiao didn't know what the fragrance was; she couldn't describe it.

In a daze, a large hand touched her forehead and slowly moved closer to her face. Su Xiaoxiao felt herself being held tightly by him, and felt his warmth and breath behind her. It was so reassuring, more effective than any sleeping pill. Su Xiaoxiao fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Su Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and found that it was already daylight.

The weather outside was lovely, and she began to feel refreshed.

Su Xiaoxiao felt full of energy. Just as she was about to stretch, she looked up and touched something next to her. She looked up and saw that it was Pei Yuan.

Su Xiaoxiao's waist was still draped with Pei Yuan's arm. Su Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat. Of course, she didn't scream like the female protagonist in TV dramas. Instead, she carefully moved Pei Yuan's arm away before slowly getting out of bed.

When Su Xiaoxiao got off the bed, she realized that she had slept in Pei Yuan's bed the whole night.

"morning."

Pei Yuan had actually been awake for a while. He got up and first reached out to touch Su Xiaoxiao's forehead to check her temperature. "Okay, everything is finally back to normal."

Su Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed by such intimate contact, so she changed the subject and asked Pei Yuan, "Why did you sleep in my bed last night?" "And where is the pillow I used to separate us?"

"Please, you're sleeping in my bed, okay?"

Pei Yuan said irritably, "You came to my bed on your own last night, and I couldn't push you away!"

Having no other option, Su Xiaoxiao cleared her throat and said, "Maybe I'm just delirious from the fever..."

Su Xiaoxiao quickly went behind the screen and changed her clothes; she was going to the capital today.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao wanted to escape even more, even though it proved that she could sleep with Pei Yuan without anything happening.

She was overthinking it. At least nothing happened between them last night, and they got along fairly peacefully.

Su Xiaoxiao went out to wash up and felt quite relaxed. This illness came on quickly and went away quickly.

Of course, I also have to thank Liu Qiaomei for coming over to take care of me last night. At this moment, Liu Qiaomei has already prepared breakfast in the kitchen.

Da Bao and Xiao Bao were having breakfast in the kitchen when Su Xiaoxiao walked in and called out to the busy Liu Qiaomei, "Qiaomei, good morning!"

"Sister Su, are you feeling better? Why didn't you sleep a little longer?"

Su Xiaoxiao replied with a smile, "I'm much better. Thank you for taking care of me last night."

When Su Xiaoxiao said this, Liu Qiaomei smiled shyly and said, "It's nothing. By the way, this is the porridge I made for you. Have some!"

"it is good,"

Su Xiaoxiao took the bowl of white porridge and sat down next to Da Bao and Xiao Bao, who were eating.

"Mother, were you sick last night? How come we didn't know?"

Da Bao asked Su Xiaoxiao with great concern.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled at him and said, "Don't worry, Mom's all better now. It wasn't anything serious, just a cold. You two eat well, and then go to school. Remember to listen to Uncle Pei Yuan and Su Xiuer while Mom's not home these days, and study hard so you don't fall behind in your studies."

When Su Xiaoxiao spoke, she already seemed like a very qualified mother.

The two children, Da Bao and Xiao Bao, nodded obediently.

As Su Xiaoxiao drank her congee and ate the pickled radishes that Liu Qiaomei had prepared for her, she suddenly remembered to ask Liu Qiaomei a question.

"Is your luggage all packed?"

Liu Qiaomei nodded.

"Xiaoxiao, you were sick last night, and you have to travel such a long distance today. Are you really sure you can manage?"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "It's alright, I'm perfectly healthy. After you finish eating, you don't need to worry about the two children going to school. I'll have Pei Yuan take them. You should go and say goodbye to your father. Qian Musheng's car should be here to pick us up soon."

Liu Qiaomei agreed and left the kitchen.

Only then did Su Xiuer become lazy and sit down at the dining table to eat breakfast without combing her hair or washing her face.

Seeing her lazy appearance, Su Xiaoxiao frowned and said to her, "Su Xiuer, while I'm away, you need to work hard. When I come back, I'll ask Sister Sun about your performance."

Su Xiuer lowered her head and drank her porridge, too lazy to even lift her eyelids, and gave a vague reply.

"Okay, cousin."

Su Xiaoxiao paused, then suddenly remembered something, "Remember, whatever you do, don't cause me any trouble, understand?"

"Okay, cousin. You're only two years older than me, but you're as nagging as my mom."
