Chapter 749: Chapter 694: The Zhan Family’s Son Comes of Age (Part 3)

The grip was so tight, it hurt like hell.

As soon as Ningwan said her hand hurt, Zhan Hanjue immediately pried his son’s hand open.

"You’re excited to grab your wife’s hand, why are you grabbing my wife’s hand?"

"Dad, I’m just too happy."

Zhan Yunxiao certainly didn’t dare to grab Xia Luo’s hand, afraid he might hurt her. But he also didn’t dare to grab his mother’s hand.

So, he could only hold onto his father’s shoulder and give him a big hug. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Zhan Hanjue was bewildered by his hug.

Being hugged by his son, who was as tall as he was, felt strangely indescribable.

However, he was still very happy that his son had finally grown up and was about to become a father.

And he could upgrade to becoming a grandfather.

So he patted his shoulder comfortingly, helping him to gradually calm down.

"Don’t get too excited just yet, Xia Luo is already physically weak. She fainted from hunger, suggesting that those who kidnapped her these past few days didn’t give her anything to eat. Now that she’s pregnant, her body is indeed very fragile."

Ningwan threw another bucket of cold water, waking Zhan Yunxiao up.

"What should I do? Mom, what should I do?"

Zhan Yunxiao anxiously asked.

Ningwan smiled faintly, "Well, I’m a renowned Divine Doctor, there’s no difficult illness I can’t handle. You leave Xia Luo to me, and I guarantee her body will recover in two months, and she’ll give birth to a lovely baby."

"Okay, Mom, thank you for your hard work."

Zhan Yunxiao sighed in relief and hurriedly thanked his mother.

Soon, the car drove back home.

Zhan Yunxiao carried Xia Luo off the car and laid her down in bed to rest.

Ningwan is a practitioner of Chinese medicine.

Since Xia Luo was unconscious, she couldn’t directly administer medication.

So, she called the hospital to send over a Western doctor to first give Xia Luo a nutritional drip.

I don’t know if it was because of the nutritional drip, or if Xia Luo was just meant to wake up at that time.

Two hours later, Xia Luo finally opened her eyes.

"Luoluo."

Zhan Yunxiao hadn’t left and stayed by her side in the room.

So, the moment she opened her eyes, he immediately held her hand and called her name.

"Xiao?"

Xia Luo looked at Zhan Yunxiao in surprise.

She closed her eyes again, as if she couldn’t believe everything in front of her was real.

Zhan Yunxiao reached out to touch her cheek and gently told her, "It’s all real, I’ve found you, you’re safe now. Don’t be afraid, I’m here with you, no one will hurt you again."

"Xiao, thank you for finding me before I starved." Xia Luo smiled bitterly.

Zhan Yunxiao said with heartache, "I’m sorry, Luoluo, I came too late."

Xia Luo shook her head, "Not late, the timing was just right. But can you get me something to eat first? I’m so hungry, my stomach hurts."

Upon hearing her stomach hurt, Zhan Yunxiao was startled, thinking something was wrong with the baby inside her.

"Don’t worry, I’ll get my mom over right away."

"I’m just hungry, just get me something to eat, noodles are fine. I just want food, why are you calling Mom over?" Xia Luo felt aggrieved.

Zhan Yunxiao sighed in relief, "You’re hungry and that’s why your stomach hurts? I thought... wait here, I’ll bring some food right away."

He dashed out the door and had the servant bring the food up.

They had been keeping a pot of soup warm at home, waiting for her to wake up.

This was Ningwan’s instruction, that she shouldn’t eat anything too greasy upon waking, just something light.

Like porridge or soup.

Zhan Yunxiao wasn’t sure what Xia Luo wanted to eat, so he had made everything. It was all kept warm in the pot, waiting for her to wake up.

"I’m not picky, anything will do, just give me a bowl first."

Zhan Yunxiao asked Xia Luo what she wanted to eat.

Xia Luo was easy to please, waved her hand, anything was fine; she just wanted food now.

Seeing her so miserably hungry, Zhan Yunxiao felt his heart ache in fragments.

He quickly brought a spoonful of porridge to her lips.

Xia Luo swallowed it in one gulp.

"I seem to be even hungrier now."

After taking one bite, Xia Luo was speechless at this fact.

Zhan Yunxiao: "It’s okay, there’s plenty more, we can eat slowly."

Xia Luo nodded.

However, she thought Zhan Yunxiao was feeding her too slowly, so she grabbed the bowl and gulped it down herself.

Watching her fiercely finish a bowl of porridge, Zhan Yunxiao showed a surprised expression.

"I still want another bowl."

Xia Luo handed him the empty bowl and pleaded pitifully.

Zhan Yunxiao nodded.

"Okay, there’s plenty, I’ll make sure you’re full. But, should we have a bowl of broth? It’s more nutritious than porridge."

"Okay, okay, okay."

Xia Luo nodded immediately.

At the mention of "meat," she was practically starving and reaching out a hand from her throat.

Quickly, Xia Luo downed two more bowls of soup.

When Xia Luo put yet another empty bowl in front of Zhan Yunxiao, indicating she wanted another, Zhan Yunxiao finally realized something was off.

"Luoluo, we’ve had three bowls, we can’t have more, or it will upset your stomach."

Zhan Yunxiao gently persuaded her.

But Xia Luo showed a pitiful expression and weakly said, "But, I’m still hungry."
