Chapter 195 Uneasy
As the meeting was about halfway through.

Perhaps it was because Lu Lianbai's gaze toward the head seat was too blatant and frequent.

Another doctor colleague sitting next to him couldn't help but lower his voice and ask him:

"Dr. Lu, what's wrong with you? I feel like you've been staring at General Jing the whole time you've been in the meeting."

Lu Lianbai finally managed to restrain himself and turned his gaze back, saying, "I was just listening attentively to the general's speech."

Colleague: "...You're taking this way too seriously. I noticed your eyes were practically glued to the general the whole time..."

Despite the well-intentioned reminder, Lu Lianbai still didn't restrain himself. Whenever Jing Weimian spoke, his gaze would follow her and he wouldn't look away for even a moment.

Although Jing Weimian's mental restraints were tightly fastened today, not a single trace of her mental energy was leaked out.

However, Lu Lianbai could still sense through the scale core that Jing Weimian's mental frequency of pleasure was still very low.

Even at this moment, Lu Lianbai was still trying to comfort himself.

Perhaps my wife encountered something unpleasant these past few days, which is why she suddenly became so cold towards him yesterday.

As a mermaid capable of purifying and healing the human spirit, especially since the other party is his beloved wife, he cannot disregard her safety just because she is a little indifferent.

Lu Lianbai immediately made up his mind that he would definitely go to find Jing Weimian after the meeting.

At the very least, you need to soothe and calm your wife's emotional state before having a proper talk with her.

He was certain that his wife wouldn't ignore him for no reason.

What Lu Lianbai didn't expect was that, as the meeting was nearing its end, an unexpected event suddenly occurred that caught him off guard.

The meeting at the round table had basically concluded, and only a few wrap-up tasks remained before we were ready to leave.

But at this critical juncture, the conference room door was suddenly opened unexpectedly.

A little baby dressed in neat blue overalls pattered in.

The little guy's steps were hurried and unsteady; he practically ran here crying the whole way.

Following the only scent he could detect—a familiar, all-too-familiar scent from his father—Lu Lianbai instantly recognized it as his baby's cry and immediately stood up from the conference table.

Seeing Jing Xiaoyu running towards him with tears streaming down her face, he didn't have time to think about the consequences of her appearing in this place at this moment, and immediately spoke without thinking:

"What's wrong, baby? Daddy's here."

Jing Xiaoyu's legs were trembling. Hearing her father's voice, she rushed over in fear and anxiety.

She clung to Lu Lianbai's leg and sobbed loudly.

Lu Lianbai had no idea why the baby was so frightened out of nowhere, so he quickly bent down and picked up the child.

Looking up, she was caught off guard by Jing Weimian's gaze, which was looking at her for the first time that day.

At the conference table, the people who had not yet left looked at each other, clearly displeased with the child who had suddenly barged in.

However, before anyone could voice their opinions, General Jing, who was seated at the head of the table, spoke first, "Let's adjourn the meeting."

Hearing General Jing say this, the people present did not say anything more and packed up their things and left one after another.

The conference room quickly fell into an eerie silence, with only the muffled sobs of a child nestled in Lu Lianbai's arms.

Jing Weimian handed several important documents on the table to Chen Yan and asked him to wait for her.

He then walked straight to the back of the conference table, in the direction where Lu Lianbai was standing.

Lu Lianbai held the child and watched as Jing Weimian walked towards him with a calm expression.

For some reason, a sense of unease crept into my heart.

His hand was still stroking the cub's head. As Jing Weimian stopped in front of him, he subconsciously said, "I'm sorry, General—"

Jing Weimian calmly and coldly cut him off:
“Dr. Lu, the medical department at the base is a workplace, not a place for you to take care of children.”

After saying that, Jing Weimian turned around and left without looking back.
