Jiang Mian shuddered!

She belatedly realized what was happening.

Indeed, one thing that makes this man different from before is that, although he used to treat Jiang Mian badly.

He never reciprocated her feelings, but he slept with her quite a bit!

He sleeps with her whenever he has free time!

To my shame, this is probably why she couldn't let go of that marriage in her past life, and always felt there was still hope.

Women often feel that sex and love are inseparable.

Jiang Mian thought that since he was so affectionate with her all the time, it was impossible that he had no feelings for her at all.

So they just kept holding on like that.

Little did they know, perhaps in a man's eyes, sex and love can be completely separated.

After we got married again in this life, he didn't do it as frequently as he did in the previous life.

Jiang Mian also felt that it was because he had matured and was no longer so impulsive.

Or perhaps it's because I'm getting older, and I'm not as young and passionate in that area as I was in my twenties.

Jiang Mian only realized now that none of them were true.

It's not because I've matured and stopped being impulsive, nor is it because I've lost my passion due to getting older.

It's purely due to the effects of the medication.

When Jiang Mian was nailed to the bed, she felt that she was probably just reaping what she had sown.

Why bother with him? Let him take his medicine if he wants.

It's better for him to take medicine than for him to be like this now, almost paralyzed.

Moreover, this man has put a lot of effort into training over the past five years, regardless of whether it's to relieve his emotions or to improve his physical skills.

In short, his muscular physique, honed through boxing and martial arts training, possesses extraordinary explosive power and endurance that should not be underestimated.

Jiang Mian couldn't even remember whether she had fainted from exhaustion or fallen asleep.

Before I knew it, it was midnight.

Jiang Mian opened her eyes, looking at the vast night outside the window, and then at the dim yellow bedside lamp in the bedroom.

I couldn't help but let out a soft, silent sigh.

Soon, a heat source surged up from behind.

To be honest, when he first came up to her, Jiang Mian even trembled all over! It had only been a day, and she was already a little scared.

"No, I don't want it anymore..." Jiang Mian said in a hoarse voice.

As for why her voice was hoarse, both she and he knew the reason perfectly well.

"I had Song Xun bring some food over. If you're hungry, get up and eat something. If you're not hungry, just keep sleeping. Lu Chaochi has already eaten and is asleep. I'll take him to kindergarten tomorrow morning."

Jiang Mian was simply worried about her son, and after hearing this, she gave a soft "hmm".

But she had slept for quite a while, so she wasn't really that tired.

She stared out the window for a moment, then finally turned around and glanced at the man.

"Lu Bozhou".

"Ah."

"Why don't you... take your medicine?" Jiang Mian bit her lip and said softly.

The man seemed to chuckle softly, or perhaps not.

His deep voice held no hint of amusement. "No."

He refused decisively.

Jiang Mian was almost in tears. "Why? You were doing fine taking your medicine before. Don't worry, I'll give you the medicine every day and watch you swallow it. It'll be safe."

Lu Bozhou's eyes were satiated, like those of a well-fed beast.

"For no particular reason, I just feel great about stopping the medication. I feel like a living person again," Lu Bozhou said.

Jiang Mian was both amused and exasperated. "You're acting like a normal person now. I'm about to be driven crazy by this."

But he didn't give her any more time to talk, and covered her mouth with his hand. "Okay, go to sleep."

Jiang Mian wanted to say something more, but she only managed two muffled sounds.

Then they heard the man say, "If you're still in good spirits, we can..."

She was so frightened that she tightly closed her eyes!

I thought I was no longer sleepy, but when I opened my eyes, it was already the next morning.

With Lu Bozhou no longer by her side, Jiang Mian felt a strange sense of relief.

When she got out of bed, her legs were so weak that she almost knelt down.

I managed to stand up with difficulty, and then adjusted to my soft legs.

Only then did he wash up and slowly go downstairs.

On the stairs, you can hear a child's clear, sweet voice coming from the dining room.

"But Dad, you can't keep bullying Mianmian like this."

Lu Chaochi adjusted the strap of his little backpack, pouted, and said, "I don't like you taking me to kindergarten."

"why."

“Of course, because I prefer Mianmian,” Lu Chaochi said.

Lu Bozhou glanced at him and said, "I am your father."

He reached out and pinched Lu Chaochi's little face. He seemed to like the feel of it and pinched it again.

Lu Chaochi frowned as he was pinched, but he didn't feel too disgusted.

He probably found it novel, because his father would never have treated him like this before.

My father is always very calm, indifferent, and restrained.

Quite boring.

But his current father, while he finds him somewhat awful, also inexplicably finds him rather amusing.

"You have to like me, or you'll have to put up with it." Only then did Lu Bozhou withdraw his hand.

After staring at his father for a moment, Lu Chaochi said, "I think I'm starting to like you."

After saying that, Lu Chaochi thought for a moment and added, "Dad, you still can't keep bullying Mianmian like this."

"You've already gone off on a tangent, and you still manage to bring the conversation back on track." Lu Bozhou glanced at him sideways. "Forget it, you're a kid, you wouldn't understand."

"Who says I don't understand?" Lu Chaochi changed into his sneakers. "But Dad, if you and Mianmian keep doing this, won't I become a big brother very soon?"

"Do you want to be the older brother?" Lu Bozhou looked down at the child's soft hair and asked in a low voice.

Lu Chaochi thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes, kids are so much fun."

Lu Bozhou's gaze was fixed on him, but seemed to drift somewhat away.

After a moment, he said, "Then think about it. You probably won't be able to be a big brother in this lifetime."

Lu Chaochi raised his eyes and glanced cautiously at Lu Bozhou, then asked carefully, "Why? Is it because you want to protect my rights? To prevent others from... dividing the family property with me?"

Lu Bozhou frowned at him, "Who told you all this nonsense?"

“I heard it from my grandmother…” Lu Chaochi said softly, “Is she right?”

"Don't listen to this nonsense. Many of your grandmother's words are influenced by subjective emotions and may not be true. Just listen to them and don't take them seriously," Lu Bozhou said calmly.

"You can't be my older brother because I probably can't bear it a second time..."

The latter half of his sentence was spoken very softly, drifting quite far away, and Lu Chaochi barely heard it, uttering a questioning syllable, "Huh?"

"Stop it now, let's go." Lu Bozhou gently patted Lu Chaochi's back.

The child, carrying a small schoolbag, walked out the door with light steps.

Lu Bozhou followed him out.

The door clicked shut.

Jiang Mian then walked down the stairs step by step.
