I became beautiful by eating melons

Chapter 869 Arrogance

The lights were on in the small building in the inner courtyard, and Ye Rou gently pushed open the door.

Fugui and Aotian were sitting quietly in the living room, contrary to their usual behavior. When they saw Ye Rou come in, they raised their heads and followed Ye Rou's eyes.

Jiang Chen, wearing a shirt, was feeding his child with a bottle.

The sleeves were rolled up to reveal her strong, slender arms, holding the baby firmly.

The light shone on his face, making him look particularly gentle.

Jiang Chen heard the noise and turned his head to look over. Seeing that it was Ye Rou, his stern expression relaxed: "Is get out of class over?"

Ye Rou walked over quickly. Jiang Chen was afraid that she would worry, so he moved sideways to block her view of the child, and his voice was as calm as usual.

"Are you hungry?"

Ye Rou did not answer. She stared at the baby lying in the stroller with a red face, rapid breathing and looking uncomfortable, and her nose felt sore.

“They are sick.”

Jiang Chen lowered his head and could only see the whorl of hair on her head. He knew she was sad, so he comforted her, "Don't worry, the fever has subsided."

Zhenzhen was full after drinking half a bottle of milk made from Star Milk powder, and she fluttered her little hands to push the bottle away.

Jiang Chen put her back and laid her down side by side with Zhu Zhu.

Seeing Ye Rou lowering her head and remaining silent, Jiang Chen reached out and grabbed her hand, stroking the back of her hand to comfort her.

"I've given him the medicine and he's drinking the milk, don't worry."

Under the dim light in the small building, everything was very quiet. The two children's uncomfortable heavy breathing was infinitely amplified in Ye Rou's ears.

Ye Rou finally broke down emotionally.

Big tears fell, and my vision became increasingly blurred.

When she started crying, Jiang Chen became flustered. He moved closer to her, gently lifted her face, and carefully wiped away the tears on her face with his fingertips.

"Why are you crying?"

He took a step forward, hugged Ye Rou in his arms, kissed her hair with his lips, hugged her tighter, and demanded in a clumsy and overbearing manner: "Don't cry."

After he said that, Ye Rou cried even harder.

Jiang Chen had no choice but to hold her and rock her gently, as if he was coaxing a child to sleep.

Ye Rou gradually stopped crying and raised her red face. Her eyes were wet, like a kitten caught in the rain. "Jiang Chen, I am such a bad mother."

Her voice was filled with tears, and she lowered her head after she finished speaking, looking lost.

A big hand held the back of her head and pressed her against the shoulder. Where Ye Rou couldn't see, Jiang Chen's dark eyes dimmed and the air temperature dropped a little.

"My goodness, why do you think so? Did someone tell you something?"

His voice was gentle, coaxing and guiding.

Ye Rou opened her mouth to speak.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

There was a knock on the door.

Ye Rou broke free from Jiang Chen's arms.

If the elderly people at home saw her crying, they would definitely think too much. Ye Rou urged Jiang Chen to open the door while she went upstairs to wash her face.

Jiang Chen watched her go upstairs, "Run slower."

Jiang Chen didn't open the door until Ye Rou's figure disappeared around the corner of the second floor.

The person standing outside the door was Zhou Guifen.

She held out the brown sugar and egg soup and smiled attentively: "Mr. Jiang, brown sugar and egg soup is very nourishing, especially good for sick children."

Jiang Chen didn't answer, his expression was cold: "Who let you into the inner courtyard?"

He stood with his back to the light, his face shrouded in shadow looked even more sinister, and Zhou Guifen was so frightened that she quickly explained: "I heard that the two young ladies were ill, and I wanted to do my best to help them."

In fact, she was afraid that Ye Rou would really fire her, so she came to beg for mercy.

The hand holding the brown sugar egg soup was handed forward again: "Mr. Jiang, this is also a token of my appreciation."

Jiang Chen still didn't answer, his eyes were cold.

Zhou Guifen was enveloped by a terrifying pressure, and her hands holding the soup kept shaking.

Zhang Qiaolan, who had been hiding at the door, couldn't bear it anymore.

She was originally obsessed with Jiang Chen, but when she saw him making things difficult for her mother, she rushed out and shouted at Jiang Chen, "It's just a few stinky coins, what's the big deal, Mom, let's go!"

When Aunt Zhou was pulled by her, her already shaking hands trembled, and her hands loosened, and the bowl fell to the ground with a "bang".

The brown sugar water and eggs mixed with porcelain pieces were shattered all over the floor, creating a mess.
