679: Chapter 678: Lin Dong Gets Beaten 679: Chapter 678: Lin Dong Gets Beaten Lin Xia didn’t want to leave Lu Zheng at all!
She was pregnant and needed him by her side!
If she lived in the family building, at least when Lu Zheng was not on business trips, they could still be together.
Once she went to the provincial city with Shao irou, the next ti she might see Lu Zheng could likely be just before the child was born, which was the last thing she wanted to happen.
Ever since becoming pregnant, Lin Xia didn’t know why, but she suddenly beca extrely sensitive and fragile, as if she had beco suddenly delicate.
Before Lin Xia could voice her refusal, Lu Zheng firmly objected first, “Mom!
I disagree!
Although this place isn’t large, there’s nothing we can’t buy!
I still want to talk to my child every day and cultivate our bond!”
Having waited so long, longed so much, and finally having his wishes fulfilled, how could he bear having his wife and child not by his side?
If Lin Xia really went with her mother to the provincial city, then, he might have to wait until the child was about to be born to see that adorable little one!
Shao irou was actually just making a suggestion; she wasn’t really trying to split up this young couple!
During her few days here, she had observed that the son and daughter-in-law truly loved each other.
The thick love in their words and actions, the tacit understanding between their glances, made her feel envious even as an onlooker.
It could be said that the marital life her son was now enjoying was what she had longed for her whole life yet never attained!
Her eyes smiling, she said, “All right!
Then I won’t hinder the emotional bonding between you and your child!
My earlier words were rely a suggestion!
I was considering multiple aspects; after all, the conditions here are limited, unlike our ho which is sowhat better!
But the most crucial thing still depends on your two wishes, if you two wish to be together, I’m not unreasonable!
Since you do not wish to be apart, I will make ti to co and visit!
However, I still suggest you go back before the child is born, because, after all, the dical conditions there are better, and you can also do postnatal confinent at ho!
The house here is too small, and it won’t be convenient to take care of you…”
Lin Xia and Lu Zheng exchanged glances, and they had no objections to Shao irou’s subsequent suggestion.
Lin Xia had no mother, so when it ca ti for her postnatal confinent, her younger sister Lin Qiu would probably co to help take care of her.
However, since Lin Qiu was still a young girl, her knowledge was limited; she definitely wouldn’t be adept at caring for a postpartum woman and a newborn.
In the end, the main caregiver might still be the mother-in-law, Shao irou.
Thus, a problem followed; indeed, it wasn’t as convenient here as it would be at their provincial ho.
Lu Zheng saw what Lin Xia ant and he spoke directly, “Okay, Mom!
We will go back when Lin Xia is about to give birth!”
“Good!” Shao irou, still worried, once again instructed Lin Xia about many things she should mind during pregnancy, before she reluctantly left.
After Shao irou left, what was once a bustling house returned to being the private world of Lin Xia and Lu Zheng.
Lin Xia was in the early stages of pregnancy, a critical ti to be cautious.
Even though the couple couldn’t be physically intimate, Lu Zheng also enjoyed this close, intimate anticipation of welcoming a new life.
Yet, he hadn’t been cheerful for two days when he suddenly received a call from the provincial city, instantly changing his expression.
It turned out, worried about Lin Dong, he had asked a close buddy to keep an eye on him.
As it happened, Lin Dong had been beaten up outside school and was now in the hospital!
As for who had beaten Lin Dong, the perpetrators had not yet been found!
It was only known that three young n had done it!
Such an incident was truly unexpected!
Lu Zheng pondered for a mont, initially not wanting to let Lin Xia know.
Lin Xia’s temperant was familiar to him; once she found out, she would definitely react with both anger and urgency to deal with it.
If it had been in the past, he certainly wouldn’t have stopped her.
But now, with her carrying a child, if anything happened due to Lin Dong’s situation, it would truly be an irreparable regret.
So, it was better for him to go back and handle it himself.
Lu Zheng imdiately requested leave from his unit.
Before leaving, he briefed Laoli and Nie Siming thoroughly, specifically asking Hao Xiaoyun to frequently visit Lin Xia.
Laoli and the others promised to allow him to handle things with peace of mind, ensuring that everything at ho would be well taken care of.
Lin Xia felt very reluctant about Lu Zheng suddenly having to leave for a few days.
She had previously thought that once Lin Chun and the others arrived, they could all go and stroll around the town together.
Who would have thought that plans could not keep up with changes!
But she also understood priorities and couldn’t act impulsively.
“Then co back early!
Preferably before my big brother and the others co to see !”
Lu Zheng concealed the unusual expression in his eyes—holding Lin Xia gently, he kissed her tender lips, “Don’t worry, wife!
I will definitely co back early!”
After Lu Zheng left, Lin Xia felt unusually lonely at ho alone.
Even if Lu Zheng didn’t co back at noon previously, he would still co back in the evening.
Since she knew he was around, she hadn’t truly felt such a strong sense of it before.
But now it was significantly different.
He had left, and her heart felt incredibly empty.
Once Lu Zheng reached the provincial capital, he went straight to the hospital.
When he found Lin Dong’s room, he saw Lin Dong with a bandage around his head, dark circles under his eyes, and wounds at the corner of his mouth—nothing of his original delicate appearance remained.
“Brother-in-law!” Lin Dong excitedly looked at Lu Zheng as he briskly entered the room.
He had learned from his brother-in-law’s friend that he would soon be coming over.
But he hadn’t expected him to arrive so quickly!
Lu Zheng walked to Lin Dong’s bedside, asked with concern, “Dongzi!
Are you okay?” while carefully examining his injuries.
Lin Dong said a bit sheepishly, “It’s nothing serious!
Just a minor concussion, with so superficial injuries on my face and body!”
After speaking, he quickly asked, “Brother-in-law!
Does my big sister know you’re here?”
After being attacked, a passerby had kindly brought him to the hospital.
He had only called the school, without even thinking of notifying his family.
Originally, he thought he’d return to school once his injuries healed sowhat; however, he did not expect a man—claiming to be his big sister’s brother-in-law’s good friend—to arrive.
Softness flashed in Lu Zheng’s eyes, “She doesn’t know!
I didn’t tell her!”
Lin Dong then breathed a huge sigh of relief, “Brother-in-law!
Don’t tell her!
My big sister is pregnant now!
She would worry if she knew!”
He knew all too well his big sister’s temperant!
If she found out that he had been beaten, she would definitely rush over in a panic to see him!
But now she was finally pregnant and needed to be especially careful—how could he bear to have her worry and possibly face complications due to his situation.
“I considered that, which is why I haven’t told your big sister!” Lu Zheng asked, “Dongzi!
Explain to in detail what happened at that ti!”
