After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Isn’t This What You Told Me?

“You’re not happy?” Song Sinian’s indifferent voice echoed in the dining room.

His gaze meticulously scrutinized her small face, seemingly trying to draw some conclusion through observation.

Lu Zhaozhao, with her little mouth pinched, resolutely shook her head, “I was just thinking about what you all were discussing, I’m not unhappy.”

After speaking, she did not forget to flash Sinian a sweet smile.

“Hmm.” Sinian then slowly released his hand.

Qian Hong and Zhao Xi, who were standing by, nearly ran into a wall when they saw how Sinian had handled the situation.

They had indeed suggested yesterday that Sinian pay more attention to Lu Zhaozhao, to occasionally ask her if she was feeling displeased.

But… Was that really asking just now?

Reaching out and pinching the cheek of a pretty young girl, asking her if she is unhappy?

With his indifferent expression and his flat tone, if someone said it was an interrogation, probably no one would deny it, right?

Well, at least their Mr. Song was willing to listen, and that was a good thing!

The rest of the work could be left up to them, the assisters!

They would guard the couple that Mr. Song and Mrs. Song made!

Qian Hong and Zhao Xi quickly exchanged a glance.

“Cough cough… Mr. Song, you seem to have forgotten to mention something to Mrs. Song.” Qian Hong winked at Sinian, but upon seeing him looking utterly clueless, she felt instantly disheartened.

Fortunately, Zhao Xi gave a timely reminder, “Mr. Song, the banquet.”

Sinian’s eyebrows twitched slightly, and he turned to Lu Zhaozhao, “If you wish to attend any banquets in the future, you can let Zhao Xi know in advance, and I can accompany you.”

“Really?” Lu Zhaozhao could hardly believe her ears, she subconsciously covered her mouth, her eyes looking bright and extremely attractive.

She didn’t expect that Xiao Jinglan’s trick on her yesterday would actually result in an unexpected gain.

Sinian nodded, but his gaze fell on her slightly reddened ear tips.

Embarrassed? Could she be embarrassed by such a thing?

Although he couldn’t quite understand the complex expressions on Lu Zhaozhao’s little face, he found the redness of her ears rather pleasing.

Sinian pushed a dessert closer to Lu Zhaozhao, “Don’t be afraid when you see the doctor later, just clearly explain your situation to her, ok?”

Lu Zhaozhao nodded with the spoon in her mouth, but internally she couldn’t help feeling anxious.

Was the doctor she was about to see very scary?

Lu Zhaozhao sighed at the thought of the fully-healed cut on the back of her heel.

Even if the doctor wasn’t scary, going for a medical visit with such an “injury” would surely lead to a scolding.

She decided not to think too much about it, “come what may” as the saying goes.

What took Lu Zhaozhao by surprise, however, was that the doctor who took her in seemed quite gentle.

She had originally thought that Sinian would accompany her to see the doctor.

In fact, Zhao Xi and Sinian left after bringing her to the consultation room.

Lu Zhaozhao sat on the couch in the consultation room, looking at the doctor with gentle eyes and brows, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

“Mrs. Song, don’t be nervous. My name is Tian Xiangjun, you can also call me Doctor Tian,” Tian Xiangjun said with a soothing tone.

Her voice was as pleasant as her name, which relaxed Lu Zhaozhao, who was a bit tense.

“Okay, Doctor Tian.”

Tian Xiangjun extended her hand and placed a cup of brewed red tea in front of her, then seemingly casually said, “Mr. Song has already told me about your situation. If Mrs. Song doesn’t mind, I hope you can come for regular consultations.”

Sinian had rarely shown such concern for a person, and she naturally hoped that through psychological intervention, she could help heal the psychological wounds of this young girl.

Moreover, given her obedient and clever appearance, she might be very suitable for Song Sinian.

“Uh… do I need to have regular check-ups?” Lu Zhaozhao unconsciously glanced at her own heel.

It’s already scabbed over, and she still needs to come regularly?

For what? Post-traumatic cosmetic treatment?

Can doctors these days be so “responsible” just for money?

Lu Zhaozhao felt a bit awkward as she tugged at the corners of her mouth, “I feel like my situation doesn’t really call for regular follow-up appointments, right?”

Doctor Tian sighed lightly, “Some injuries look minor, even as if they’re nothing at all, but over time they can turn into big hidden problems.”

When she said this, her gaze toward Lu Zhaozhao even carried a hint of pity.

Previously, Song Sinian’s assistant had mentioned to her that Lu Zhaozhao had been emotionally abused by the Lu Family from a young age and had grown accustomed to the unfairness of life.

She might not even notice that she’s been injured.

Now, Lu Zhaozhao was even more confused; she blinked her watery eyes and suddenly didn’t know what to say.

If it weren’t for the fact that this person was recommended by Song Sinian, she would have thought she was a scammer!

Lu Zhaozhao took a deep breath, and just as she was about to speak, she choked on her own saliva.

A violent cough immediately filled the room. Doctor Tian was startled and quickly went over to pat her back.

At this moment, Song Sinian, who had heard the commotion, pushed the door open and came in.

He caught sight of Lu Zhaozhao with reddened eyes still gasping for breath.

His brows furrowed, and he walked straight toward her.

“Mr. Song, I was just…”

Before Lu Zhaozhao could finish explaining, Song Sinian leaned in, cradled her small face, and pressed his lips directly onto hers.

This sudden action left Lu Zhaozhao completely frozen in place.

She didn’t dislike Song Sinian’s closeness, but… there was someone else with them now!

Lu Zhaozhao’s entire face instantly turned as red as a ripe tomato, and she was so stiff she didn’t know whether to push Song Sinian away or just let him have his way.

Fortunately, Song Sinian wasn’t too overbearing; he just kissed her briefly before quickly releasing her.

But for Doctor Tian, who witnessed this scene, it was as if she had been struck by lightning.

Now, Lu Zhaozhao felt even more embarrassed.@@novelbin@@

With her head lowered, she whispered in an embarrassed tone, “Mr. Song, why did you… why did you…”

The last few words, she just couldn’t bring herself to say out loud.

Song Sinian furrowed his brows slightly, “Isn’t that what you told me?”

“Huh?” Lu Zhaozhao looked at Song Sinian in bewilderment.

She had told him?

That was slander! She didn’t! She hadn’t!

Seeing that she seemed not to understand, Song Sinian added, “Every time just doing that, you stop crying.”

“!!!”

Now, Lu Zhaozhao finally understood why Song Sinian had kissed her on the balcony the day before.

She had thought it was simply because the moment felt right, never did she imagine it was because she had cried…

Lu Zhaozhao truly wanted to find a hole to crawl into; it was a social death of its kind.

As she was thinking about how to explain to Doctor Tian, she met her eyes which shone as if she had discovered some kind of ultimate treasure.

Lu Zhaozhao suddenly felt a chill, as if she had been marked by some strange person…
