On his first night as a substitute bride accompanying the army, the abstinent tycoon dropped his pre

Chapter 188 Adjusting the Trajectory
Grandpa Huo looked outside, but after a long time he still couldn't see Wen Ci. He asked in confusion, "Where's A-Ci? Why are you all alone?"

"She's still sleeping."

After finishing his sentence, Huo Jingyuan felt that his tone and meaning were a bit off, so he explained, "Last night, Aci asked me to stay in Hangzhou with you for a few more days, so she just went to sleep not long ago."

The two elders, having been through similar experiences, understood the meaning behind Huo Jingyuan's words, "he had just fallen asleep not long ago."

Grandma Liu rolled her eyes at him and complained, "Your grandpa and I are looking forward to you having a baby, but we didn't expect you to be in such a hurry."

As she spoke, she called out loudly to the kitchen auntie, "Xiao Li, make chicken soup for lunch so that the young mistress can have some nourishment."

"No need, my flight is at 11 o'clock."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Liu looked at Huo Jingyuan with disgust and complained, word by word, "Huo Jingyuan, you're really not a man. Aci's flight was at 11 a.m. and you kept her up until dawn."

“Exactly,” Grandpa Huo agreed.

"no……"

Huo Jingyuan sighed, realizing he couldn't explain himself even if he had ten mouths. He had only intended to do it once, and it was Wen Ci who had agreed to it.

"Add some goji berries, you can have some on your way to see Aci." After a pause, Grandma Liu asked, "Are you planning to stay in Hangzhou for a few more days?"

"Three or four days."

If it goes on any longer, he won't be able to hold it in.

"Good good."

After breakfast, Grandma Liu went to the kitchen to check on the soup, while Huo Jingyuan went to his study to make himself a cup of coffee. As a hardworking ox, he was also tired.

I forced myself to stay awake and take my wife to the airport later.

nine thirty.

When Huo Jingyuan returned to the room, he found Wen Ci still fast asleep. He covered her eyes with a silk quilt and gently picked her up in a princess carry.

When Su Wanqing passed by the courtyard, she saw Huo Jingyuan carrying Wen Ci in a princess carry. She felt very uncomfortable and her eyes were full of envy.

She clenched her fists. She should have listened to her friends back then and drugged Huo Jingyuan before he returned to China, forcing him into marriage. That way, even if they were separated by two countries, a man like Huo Jingyuan would have taken responsibility to the end. Unfortunately, she had just turned eighteen back then.

I don't have the guts to administer the drug.

An hour later, Wen Ci slowly opened her eyes. Her head was resting on Huo Jingyuan's strong thighs, and she was covered with a thin blanket.

"Awake?" Huo Jingyuan asked calmly.

He had been in this position for an hour without moving, which wasn't a problem. The main issue was that his wife would occasionally move a little while sleeping.

The thigh is so close to...

She rested her head on her thigh, her nerves taut with every movement, and she occasionally had to adjust the trajectory of her bullets to avoid poking Wen Ci and disturbing her rest.

Wen Ci sat up, stretched, hugged Huo Jingyuan's arm, looked out the window, and asked, "Where are we?"

"Young Madam, we're almost at the airport."

Wen Ci rubbed her eyes, glanced sideways and saw the dark circles under Huo Jingyuan's eyes, looking utterly exhausted: "Didn't you catch up on sleep?"

"Didn't sleep."

As he spoke, Huo Jingyuan took out a thermal container and said in a gentle voice, "Are you hungry? Would you like some chicken soup, or you can drink it on the plane?"

Lunch was also provided on flights in the 1980s.

It's still at the level of a state-run canteen.

"Why do not you sleep?"

Wen Ci looked at him with a serious expression.

Huo Jingyuan did most of the work last night. He worked much harder than I did, and his whole body ached as if he had been run over by a car.

Huo Jingyuan's injury was not as severe as being run over by a car.

However, he must also be exhausted.
