He took a deep drag from his cigarette, his deep eyes looking pensively towards the distant night sky.
.......
The next morning after breakfast, Old Sir Lu said he wanted to go back to the old house. Han Xi had originally wanted the old man to stay with the two of them, especially since he was getting on in years, and the issue with the dication hadn’t been figured out yet. Han Xi really wasn’t comfortable letting him go back.
Old Sir Lu chuckled as he held Han Xi’s hand: "Girl, grandpa can only find out who’s been drugging if I go back. Don’t worry; nothing will happen."
"Alright then, if anything happens, grandpa, you must call us. And rember to take the dicine Doctor Li gave you on ti."
"I know, girl."
Song Mingyuan and Shen Qiong were also reluctant to let the old man go. Shen Qiong even packed so of the pastries she made yesterday for him to take back.
Lu Jinghan and Han Xi put on their coats and drove Old Sir Lu back to the old house.
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in the courtyard of the old house. Hearing the car door close, Housekeeper Li hurried out to open the door: "Master, young master and young mistress, you’re back."
Lu Jinghan nodded, supporting the old man into the house.
Since Old Sir Lu had spent the New Year at Lu Jinghan’s place, only Ji Qing and her son were left at ho, and no relatives or friends ca to visit for the New Year, making it particularly empty and devoid of festive cheer.
In the living room, Ji Qing saw the old man return and walked over with a smile: "Dad, you’re finally back. How was it staying at Jinghan’s place?"
"Quite good."
The old man replied indifferently, taking off his overcoat and handing it to Housekeeper Li.
Lu Jingwei, just coming down the stairs, saw Old Sir Lu return and quickly ca over fawningly, affectionately linking her arm with his: "Grandpa, can you give so pocket money? I’m almost broke now and can’t buy anything, please?"
"After the New Year, you need to find a job. Don’t laze around at ho doing nothing. If you really don’t want to work, then quickly find soone to marry."
"I promise I’ll look for a job after the New Year, but you have to give so money now. I really don’t have any money left."
Lu Jingwei looked at Old Sir Lu pitifully. She had just arranged to go out with friends tonight, and without so money, it would be embarrassing.
"In a mont, I’ll have Housekeeper Li get you so money. Rember to keep your promise to find a job after the New Year."
"Don’t worry, Grandpa."
Having successfully gotten the money, Lu Jingwei was thrilled, thinking she would agree to the job search now and find excuses to delay it later.
Lu Jinghan still needed to take Han Xi to the hospital for a prenatal checkup, so they didn’t stay long at the old house. He called Housekeeper Li aside to give a few instructions, then left holding Han Xi’s hand.
They drove straight to the hospital. After the prenatal checkup, all the indicators were normal, and Little Bun was developing well.
After leaving the hospital, Lu Jinghan kept looking at the ultrasound image, unable to hide the happiness on his face.
"You’ve been looking at it for quite a while."
Han Xi laughed as she got into the passenger seat, lowering her head to fasten her seatbelt.
"Turns out this little guy really is a boy. No wonder he’s such a handful."
The OB-GYN accidentally revealed the little one’s gender while examining Han Xi.
