After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 68: Chapter 68: What happened to Zhaozhao?

Tian Xiangjun touched the reading glasses by her side and placed them on her nose bridge before hurrying to the computer.

Song Sinian had never taken the initiative to seek her out before, this was the first time.

She was so panicked, “Sinian, did something happen over there? Or is it Zhaozhao…”

Song Sinian’s condition had been stable for many years, although there had been no improvements, it could be considered stable.

His only emotional fluctuation was always centered around Lu Zhaozhao, so compared to Song Sinian, she was more worried about Lu Zhaozhao.

Song Sinian shook his head, “She’s fine, she went to the bedroom to rest.”

Tian Xiangjun then patted her chest and let out a sigh of relief, “You scared me to death, I really can’t take this at my age.”

While saying this, she picked up the glass of milk from the table and began to drink.

“I want to ask you how to be clingy?”

“Pfft—”

Tian Xiangjun spat out the milk she hadn’t finished drinking all over her computer.

While coughing, she frantically wiped her computer screen with tissues.

“Cough cough cough… What the heck? Be clingy?”

She had been practicing medicine for so many years, and now she was finally going mad, starting to have auditory hallucinations.

Song Sinian said he wanted to learn how to be clingy!

Song Sinian’s dark eyes blinked slightly on the other end of the screen, his face still calm as he said, “How does one act clingy? How can one be clingy without annoying others?”

“…”

Tian Xiangjun glanced at the glass of milk on the table, then looked at Song Sinian, and decisively put it further away from herself.

She thought for a few seconds and looked at Song Sinian on the screen, asking very seriously, “When you say being clingy, do you mean you want to cling to Zhaozhao?”

“Mhm,” Song Sinian answered particularly straightforwardly.

“…”

At times like this, Tian Xiangjun felt quite impressed with Song Sinian; he never hesitated with such questions that were embarrassing to speak of.

“Okay, being clingy,” she narrowed her eyes, not knowing how to explain this behavior to Song Sinian for a moment.

He was different from most people; if she just talked about simple actions or behaviors, he might misunderstand, and no one knew what might happen then.

Tian Xiangjun hesitated for a long time, then suddenly as if she had thought of something, she said, “You should know that pets are generally very clingy, right?”

Without any doubt, Song Sinian nodded and responded again with an “Mhm.”

“In that case, if you buy Zhaozhao a pet,” Tian Xiangjun glanced at the computer screen and slowly said, “then it would be easier for you to observe how she likes pets to cling to her, and you could learn from that, don’t you agree?”

This could also be considered a method of observation and learning, the safest for Song Sinian.

She thought there was no way Song Sinian would refuse.@@novelbin@@

But what she didn’t expect was that Song Sinian only fell silent for a moment before he directly refused, “Is there another way?”

Tian Xiangjun was taken aback, “Are you afraid that Zhaozhao doesn’t like pets? Cats and dogs and the like are very cute; Zhaozhao would probably like them, right?”

Hearing that, the corners of Song Sinian’s brow traced an imperceptible trace of irritation.

His dark eyes blinked slightly, and he said in a cold tone, “Those pets are not safe; Zhaozhao can easily get hurt.”

“What about finding some non-aggressive pets? Or regularly taking them to the vet for nail trimming or something? And…” Tian Xiangjun’s words trailed off as she clearly sensed that Song Sinian’s mood was quite different from usual.

Even though she was separated by a computer screen, she accurately grasped the subtle difference.

It seemed that Lu Zhaozhao’s influence on Song Sinian was indeed significant.

Tian Xiangjun thought of this and seemed to suddenly realize something. She quickly added another sentence, “Ah, I forgot, Zhaozhao has to attend school, so it wouldn’t be suitable for her to keep a pet long term. For observation purposes, you could occasionally borrow one from a pet store or a cat café and then return it afterward.”

“I’ll… think about it.”

Sure enough, the emotions coming from Song Sinian’s side weren’t as resistant as before.

It looked like Song Sinian was worried that Lu Zhaozhao liking pets would threaten his position.

For the first time, Tian Xiangjun felt Song Sinian actually had a cute side.

For many years, the Song Sinian she knew could look at anything with the most objective and calm perspective, so cold he hardly seemed human.

But now… with Lu Zhaozhao, he has also started to pick up a bit of her warmth.

That’s good.

It looked like she should find some time to have a proper chat with Lu Zhaozhao, the “Beast Taming Master”…

As night fell, the evening breeze grew cooler.

Lu Zhaozhao sat on the sofa in her bedroom, pulling her shawl tighter over her shoulders, and hesitated for a moment before she sent a message to Xia Wenqing on her laptop.

“Second Brother, do you know anyone in the component verification department?”

At that time, Xia Wenqing, who was in the Xia Family’s living room dealing with legal documents, became anxious upon receiving the message from Lu Zhaozhao.

He gave Xia Wenjue a look, then immediately replied, “Yes, what do you need to have tested?”

Thinking about how Lu Zhaozhao had asked Xia Wenjue to hack into surveillance before, he couldn’t help but frown.

Soon, a message came back from Lu Zhaozhao, “I want to test a sample of water for its components, to see if there are any drugs in it.”

Xia Wenqing’s heart skipped a beat. Could someone have targeted Lu Zhaozhao?

He looked up at Xia Wenjue and saw him shake his head.

Other than the accident Lu Zhaozhao had on the mountain, there hadn’t been any other incidents lately.

“Did someone drug you?” In a moment of impulse, Xia Wenqing sent a message. “If someone bullies you, you have to tell Second Brother; I can protect you.”

Lu Zhaozhao blinked her eyes in front of the computer, the light from the floor lamp making the computer screen glow, reflecting in her slightly shining eyes.

Seeing the message from Xia Wenqing, the corners of Zhaozhao’s mouth curved up. The feeling of being cared for by a loved one was even better than she had imagined.

She had been worried that Xia Wenqing would ask her where the item came from, but to her surprise, his first concern was her safety.

Lu Zhaozhao pursed her lips and chose to tell Xia Wenqing the truth.

“Last weekend, Song Sinian’s grandfather fainted in the mountains, and I found the water he had been drinking. I want to help rule out the cause of his fainting.”

In ordinary families, this sort of thing wouldn’t be much of an issue, but for the Song Family, such a powerful clan, any small matter could be blown out of proportion.

So it wasn’t wrong for Lu Zhaozhao to choose to proceed discreetly.

Compared to all this, what delighted Xia Wenqing more was Lu Zhaozhao’s trust in him.

The fact that she thought of him, her Second Brother, first made Xia Wenqing feel a little proud.

On the other hand, Xia Wenjue was feeling quite jealous, “This matter could have been handled by me too…”

“There’s nothing to be done, I’m a lawyer, and dealing with these types of tests is naturally most suited for me,” Xia Wenqing’s eyes narrowed with happiness.

Xia Wenyan, who had been sitting across from them, looked at the two with a confused face, “Did something happen to Zhaozhao?”
