Futuristic Chef Transmigrated As Mother Novel - Chapter 165

165 Find You a Doctor

The more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

Didn’t many parents joke in those videos that the purpose of having children was so that the adults have someone to play with? Xiaoguo felt that she could think about this.

Zhuang Zhuang was definitely willing to make some sacrifices for his mother’s sake.

The more Xiaoguo thought about it, the more excited she became. She folded the clothes one by one. Soon, there were only two pieces of colorful cloth left on the bed. At first, Xiaoguo thought that they were meant to be used as bundle wraps. When she picked them up, she saw that they were a set of adult-sized traditional attire.

!!
Jiang Danhe, who was standing at the side, saw that Xiaoguo had finally gotten the most important piece of clothing. He immediately said, “This is for you.”

Xiaoguo looked back at him in surprise. “Really?”

“Of course.”

Who didn’t like new clothes? Women loved receiving gifts, let alone a very beautiful dress.

Xiaoguo picked up the dress and went to the bronze mirror in the room. She held it in front of her and admired it.

Just now, when she spotted it, she had thought that the colors were very beautiful. Now that she was draping it on her body, the dress looked even more beautiful.

“How beautiful!”

Xiaoguo looked at the clothes in the mirror, her heart was beating wildly.

“That’s right. It’s beautiful.”

Jiang Danhe looked at the smiling and lively face in the mirror. His heart was also beating wildly. He had always known that Xiaoguo was good-looking, but she seemed even prettier than he had imagined.

Jiang Danhe was stunned and stared at Xiaoguo without blinking.

Xiaoguo called out to Jiang Danhe a few times, but he did not reply. She found it strange. He was clearly looking at her in the mirror. Why did he not respond when she called out to him?

“Jiang Danhe?”

Xiaoguo turned and hugged the clothes to her chest. Then she approached the stunned man.

Jiang Danhe’s eyes followed Xiaoguo’s reflection in the mirror. When he regained his senses, he realized that Xiaoguo’s face was almost right in front of him.

Startled, he tilted his head back and was going to fall into the pile of clothes and accessories that Xiaoguo had stacked together.

Xiaoguo did not expect to scare him. Seeing that he was about to fall into the pile, she reached out to pull him back. But he was much heavier than she’d imagined—not only did she fail to stop him, she was dragged down together with him.

Xiaoguo fell right onto Jiang Danhe’s chest and ended up laying face-to-face against him. The stack of hair accessories and clothes had also collapsed.

Xiaoguo sighed. It looked like she would have to refold everything…

Just as Xiaoguo was thinking about folding the clothes, she suddenly felt an itch on her face.

Hence, Xiaoguo raised her hand to scratch it. Just as she was about to see what it was, her eyes met Jiang Danhe’s gaze.

His eyes were glittering with a strange light. They were as dazzling and charming as the brightest stars in the night sky.

His breath was so close and a strange feeling instantly spread through XIaoguo’s body, making her heart flutter.

At this moment, she realized where she was. Just as Xiaoguo was about to get up, Jiang Danhe pressed his hand down and brought Xiaoguo back towards him.

In that instant, the air seemed to have frozen.

A cool breeze blew through the bed curtains, making them flutter.

In her daze, Xiaoguo could not tell what was going on. Her mind was blank and she submissively indulged in the excitement that Jiang Danhe was bringing her.

At this critical moment, Xiaoguo snapped back to reality and pushed away Jiang Danhe, who was overcome by his feelings.

The two of them tried to calm themselves down. In order not to embarrass Xiaoguo and to avoid making a fool of himself, Jiang Danhe left the house thoughtfully, leaving Xiaoguo alone to sort out her emotions.

After he left, Xiaoguo covered herself with the blanket.

Xiaoguo’s heart palpitated with shyness and confusion. She wanted nothing more than to retreat and hide in her protective cover.

“Jiang Danhe.”

Li Shouji searched for a long time but could not find him. Then, as he was about to go to Xiaoguo’s residence to look for him, he found him in the vicinity.

Jiang Danhe was trying to calm down. When he heard Li Shouji’s voice, he quickly tidied his attire.

“What’s up?”

Li Shouji looked at Jiang Danhe and found him very interesting. “What kind of styling is this? Hahahaha…”

The man was still looking at him senselessly. Jiang Danhe was dying to slap him. When it comes to insensitivity, no one could compare to Li Shouji.

“What!?”

Jiang Danhe shifted his legs with difficulty and glared at the heedless Li Shouji. He had asked him again, but his voice was clearly more impatient than the first time.

Although Li Shouji wasn’t sensitive, his ears were sharp and quick to pick up any signs of danger. Hence, he put on a serious face and asked, “I heard that Sister-in-law and Zhuang Zhuang are going back tomorrow?”

Li Shouji remembered why he was in such a hurry. He had just entered the residence when he saw County Magistrate Liu leaving. He only found out what was going on after asking the man. He quickly came to look for Jiang Danhe after hearing the news.

Jiang Danhe stood rooted to the ground and nodded gently to acknowledge that he was right.

Li Shouji sighed in disappointment. “Then I won’t be able to enjoy the food prepared by my Sister-in-law anymore.”

After spending some time together, he felt a little reluctant to see them leave.

“By the way, there’s a letter from the palace.”

Li Shouji thought of something and took out a letter he had just received.

Jiang Danhe’s face was now dark as charcoal, but he took the envelope anyway.

“Why are you bending over to read the letter?”

Li Shouji really couldn’t understand why he was behaving this way.

“…None of your business.”

Jiang Danhe spoke stiffly, the veins on his forehead were bulging.

Li Shouji had never seen him like this before. He thought that he was feeling unwell and was putting on a brave front.

He tugged at Jiang Danhe anxiously, wanting him to sit down so that he could get him a doctor.

“Don’t move, don’t touch me!” Jiang Danhe shouted at Li Shouji. “I’m fine, I’m fine. Go to the palace.”

As he spoke, he turned his back towards Li Shouji and handed him the letter.

Li Shouji took the letter worriedly. He was even more certain that Jiang Danhe was feeling unwell.

“Then are you okay to be by yourself?”

Jiang Danhe saw that he was still dawdling, so he waved his hand vigorously, signaling him to get lost.

Li Shouji finally left, but he thought of getting a doctor to come visit after he was done with the errand.

Jiang Danhe was finally free. After Li Shouji left, he immediately went to find a secluded room in the house. He locked the door and revealed the awkward situation he was in.

Jiang Danhe looked down at himself helplessly. “It seems like this is not going to subside for a while, so I will just have to…” Jiang Danhe looked at his hands and fell into deep thoughts…

Noon. In the study.

“Zhuang Zhuang, where’s your father?”

Li Shouji had just returned with the doctor. He looked around for Jiang Danhe but could not find him. He was afraid that the man might have fainted somewhere from his pain, so he was a little anxious.

“I didn’t see him.”

Zhuang Zhuang shook his head. His parents were not around when he was eating earlier.

Li Shouji anxiously grabbed the old doctor, who was panting hard from running, and rushed to another corner of the house.

“Jiang Danhe!”

Jiang Danhe had just finished showering and was putting on his clothes when he heard Li Shouji calling him.

He quickly put on his robe. When he walked out, he saw Li Shouji hurriedly pulling an old man who was extremely out of breath.
