They were very different at home compared to when they were out. At home, Huo Zheng liked to hold her in his arms and would frequently kiss her.

“You don’t like it?” Huo Zheng asked.

Ever since Huo Zheng dreamed about his previous life and Lin Xiaowan’s accident, he felt surreal. He felt as though he could only anchor himself in this reality when he held her firmly in his arms. He was afraid that if he let go, he would lose her again.

“I like it,” Lin Xiaowan replied. However, she suddenly exclaimed, “No! You can’t hold my hand now!”

Huo Zheng was stunned. However, not only did he not let go, but he even tightened his grip on her hand. He asked, “Why?”

Lin Xiaowan said seriously, “You’re pursuing me now. We shouldn’t hold hands or kiss when you’re pursuing me.”

Then, Lin Xiaowan hurriedly added, “We can’t sleep together as well! You have to be a gentleman.”

Huo Zheng was speechless. He really wanted to go back on his words at this moment. He finally said, “Let’s discuss this after eating.”

“Alright,” Lin Xiaowan said, shaking their hands again, “Let go of my hand first.”

Huo Zheng turned a deaf ear to her words. Instead, he dangled the pastry in front of her, attempting to distract her as she said, “Have another one.”

However, Huo Zheng needed two hands to open the packaging. This meant he would have to let go of her hand. He paused for a moment before he said, “Forget it.”

Lin Xiaowan, who was already in the midst of reaching out for the pastry, looked at Huo Zheng in confusion. She completely forgot about not holding hands at this moment.

When Lin Xiaowan was about to take a nap in the afternoon, Huo Zheng wanted to hug her, but she refused him. She wrapped herself in the blanket like a spring roll, leaving only her head exposed as she said, “I’m going to sleep.”

Huo Zheng looked at her speechlessly. Then, he said, “Let’s discuss this matter again.”

“What do you mean? You can’t go back on your words,” Lin Xiaowan said, looking at him warily. Then, she raised her hand and said, “I kept my words and wore the ring.”

“Why can’t we hold hands?”

“Let’s not count the other times. I consider today your first day of pursuing me. How can you hold my hand or kiss me on the first day of pursuing me? You’ll be just like a hooligan if you do that on the first day you pursue me,” Lin Xiaowan, the creator of these love rules, said.

In fact, Lin Xiaowan’s request did not make sense at all. She only wanted Huo Zheng to pursue her because she did not like how he was so different from the past. With her, he had always been too calm and restrained. She lacked love and only wanted him to be more passionate. This was just a little trick to warm up their relationship. Neither of them took off their rings. No one would believe they were not together now. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell what was going on.

Lin Xiaowan thought about it for a moment. Since they were on this topic now, she decided to tell him what she wanted lest she forgot about it after two days. She counted with her fingers as she said, “You have to give me flowers, take me out to eat, and bring me on dates. You have to support me unconditionally no matter what.”

“For example, if I want to eat the milk-flavored shortbread, as someone who’s pursuing me, you should’ve immediately offered it to me with two hands!”

She said seriously, “Of course, as someone who’s being pursued, I’ll give you gifts. I’ll also treat you very, very well.”

Huo Zheng was helpless. What could he do? He could only agree to her request.

When Lin Xiaowan finally fell asleep, she was tightly bound in the blanket. It did not take long before she stretched her legs out, feeling hot.

Huo Zheng carefully pulled the blanket down a little so she was not tightly bound. As he expected, she began to feel cold in fewer than two minutes. He waited calmly for a while.

Lin Xiaowan, who was cold, did not reach out for the blanket. Instead, she instinctively moved closer to the source of heat next to her while she was asleep.

With that, Huo Zheng hugged her, feeling satisfied.

Lin Xiaowan slept until 3.30 PM. When she woke up, Huo Zheng was already working.

Late in the afternoon when it was almost time to get off work, Doctor Zhang finally came over and said the words that Lin Xiaowan wanted to hear most. She could finally be discharged.

Doctor Zhang smiled. “Are you very happy? However, after you’re discharged, you must continue to take your medications. The weather is cold so you have to stay warm. It’s dry during winter so make sure to stay hydrated. Eat more vegetables and fruits.”

Doctor Zhang looked at Huo Zheng before he continued to say, “I’ve looked at the results. She’s just a little lacking in nutrition. It’s important for her to have a balanced diet. It’s nothing serious. Just pay attention to her diet.”

“Oh, that’s right. She needs to take more calcium supplements. The calcium deficiency is quite obvious.”

After giving a few more instructions, Doctor Zhang said that Lin Xiaowan could be discharged the next morning.

Huo Zheng followed Doctor Zhang into the hallway.

After walking for a while, Doctor Zhang said, “Mr. Huo, I know what you want to ask. The damage has been done. Although the chances aren’t high, it’s still possible for the patient to get pregnant.”

After Lin Xiaowan was rescued, Doctor Zhang had already mentioned this. However, Huo Zheng had yet to find a chance to mention it to Lin Xiaowan. Earlier, Doctor Zhang also did not maintain anything about this. Now that Lin Xiaowan was about to be discharged, he wanted to know if there was any improvement. However, after listening to Doctor Zhang’s words, he no longer asked any questions.

In fact, it did not matter if Lin Xiaowan could not have children. Huo Zheng did not place much importance on having children. However, he knew Lin Xiaowan liked children and would definitely want children of her own in the future. He was afraid that she would be depressed once she found out about her condition. Fortunately, it was not completely impossible for her to have children; it was just that the chances were lower.

On the day Lin Xiaowan was discharged, Qiao You’an brought Huang Dabao and Huang Erbao, who were on winter break, to pick Lin Xiaowan up.

The two children had not seen Lin Xiaowan for months and were excited to see her. They ran toward her as soon as they saw her.

“Sister Xiaowan!”

Although the two children were young, they were as strong as wolf cubs. Huo Zheng was worried that they did not know how to control their strength. It was fine if they bumped into him, but what if they bumped into Lin Xiaowan? He quickly moved to stand in front of Lin Xiaowan and said sternly, “Don’t run.”

Huo Zheng had always been serious with the two children. They were naturally afraid of him. They stopped running immediately and said in unison, “Okay.”

Then, Huo Zheng corrected the way the two children addressed Lin Xiaowan. He said, “Call her ‘Aunty’.”

The two children always addressed him as ‘Uncle’, but they always addressed Lin Xiaowan as ‘Sister’. He had corrected them many times, but they always forgot about it. He was determined to change their bad habits of messing up the order of seniority.

Only when the two children addressed Lin Xiaowan correctly did Huo Zheng allow them to hold Lin Xiaowan’s hands.

Meanwhile, Qiao You’an only shook her head, finding the situation funny.

After that, they returned to the Huo family’s old residence. They had already discussed this beforehand.

There were many people in the old residence. Qiao You’an and the two children were also staying there during the children’s winter break. With so many people around to take care of Lin Xiaowan, she would not be lonely.
