Chapter 1131 Tricked Again

Lu Boyan was the one who was most familiar with Su Jian’an in the whole ward.

Even if he didn’t look at her, he could still notice that she was distracted.

He quietly pinched her hand and urged her to come to her senses.

Su Jian’an suddenly realized what was going on. She looked at Lu Boyan and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”

Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows and did not answer her question. Instead, he asked, “Jian’an, I should be the one asking you. What are you thinking?”

Su Jian’an lowered her beautiful peach-blossom-like eyes and whispered, “I was thinking about Youning.”

It was necessary for them to avoid mentioning Xu Youning in front of Mu Sijue.

Lu Boyan also lowered his voice and said, “Jian’an, I’ve already told you to leave Xu Youning’s matter to Mu Qi. You don’t need to worry. Just wait for her to come back.”

Su Jian’an pursed her lips and said in a reluctant tone, “I… I’ll try.”

If Su Jian’an nodded and promised that she would no longer worry about Xu Youning from today on, Lu Boyan would not believe her.

He knew Su Jian’an too well. There were some things that she could never ignore.

Therefore, in order to reassure her, he and Mu Sijue had to get rid of Kang Ruicheng as soon as possible.

The group of people chatted for a while in Shen Yuechuan’s ward. Lu Boyan suddenly whispered in Su Jian’an’s ear, “Take Xiaoxi and Yunyun out for a while. I have something to tell Yuechuan.”

Su Jian’an could vaguely guess that Yunyun had better not know what Lu Boyan was going to say to Yuechuan next.

She nodded cooperatively, pulled Yunyun’s hand, and said naturally, “Let’s go out to grab a bite. Let Boyan and Yuechuan have a talk.”

Xiao Yunyun was in a good mood, so she agreed with whatever Su Jian’an said. “Okay!” She followed Su Jian’an out happily, leaving Lu Boyan, Mu Sijue, and the others in the ward.

The living room outside the ward was very large. Several sets of sofas were placed around a coffee table, which could accommodate a lot of people.

Xiao Yunyun had probably picked up Song Jiqing’s behavior and learned to set herself free. As soon as she came out, she jumped onto the sofa and lay down. She looked at Su Jian’an and said, “Jian’an, I suddenly feel like eating everything…”

Su Jian’an understood Xiao Yunyun’s mood at the moment, and of course, she understood her appetite.

When people had a lot on their minds, their appetites would be reduced, and a sumptuous meal would taste insipid to them.

However, when people were in a good mood, their appetites, which had once been reduced, would surge over in an instant, which would make them feel like eating everything.

Xiao Yunyun should be in a very good mood now.

Luo Xiaoxi also sat down. She looked at Xiao Yunyun and said, “What do you want to eat? I’ll ask the staff to send it over.”

“There are a lot of things I want to eat.” Xiao Yunyun counted them one by one with her fingers. “I feel like eating soup dumplings, salad, sandwiches, and all kinds of snacks…”

Next, Xiao Yunyun listed the snacks she wanted to eat.

Luo Xiaoxi was speechless.

For the first time, she felt that she had met an opponent in terms of being a foodie. She was confused and didn’t know what to ask the staff to send over.

Su Jian’an knew Xiao Yunyun well, so she was not surprised at all.

She looked in the direction of the ward. She didn’t know how long Lu Boyan and Yuechuan were going to talk, so she had to keep Yunyun calm.

She took out her mobile phone and said, “Wait a minute. I’ll ask the staff to send all the food you mentioned over.”

Lu Boyan’s men were very fast. In less than 20 minutes, a lot of snacks appeared in the living room, which made people’s appetites aroused.

“Yunyun,” Su Jian’an pointed to the food that was almost piled up on the table and said, “Feel free to have them. You can eat as much as you want.”

Xiao Yunyun was eager to taste all the food. “Thank you, Jian’an!”

She first opened the package of her favorite soup dumplings and chatted with Su Jian’an while eating. For a moment, she forgot Shen Yuechuan and Lu Boyan in the ward.

After nearly an hour, Lu Boyan came out of the room and said lightly, “Yuechuan fell asleep.”

Xiao Yunyun couldn’t react for a moment. She ran back to the room and found that Yuechuan was indeed asleep.

However, all the data displayed by the monitoring instrument was in the normal range.

Yuechuan had just had a major operation and was more or less a little weak. He needed much more sleep than a normal person.

In that case, she would just let him sleep.

Xiao Yunyun ran back to the living room and checked the time. It was already noon.

It was just like the saying that happy times would always pass quickly.

Xiao Yunyun thought for a moment and suggested, “Let’s go to have a proper lunch. I haven’t had a good meal with you for a long time!”

Since Yuechuan got sick, she had mostly been eating with Yuechuan in the ward or eating alone while watching him in a coma.

Even if she could occasionally have dinner with Su Jian’an and the others, she still had a lot on her mind and a bad appetite.

Now, she finally had nothing to worry about and could enjoy a meal with a relaxed mind.

Su Jian’an was very happy to have lunch with Yunyun, but she couldn’t help asking, “Yunyun, are you sure that you can rest assured while Yuechuan is alone here?”

“Yeah!” Xiao Yunyun returned to her usual carefree state. “His operation has been successful. He only needs to recover from his operation wound before he gets to be completely normal again. What can I be worried about? He should be worried over me now, humph!”

Su Jian’an smiled and said, “In that case, let’s go to the nearby restaurant.”

After lunch, Xiao Yunyun went back to the hospital alone to take care of Yuechuan, while the others went home or went back to their apartments.

Lu Boyan and Su Jian’an went back to Dingya Villas.

After the New Year, the atmosphere of the festival faded, but the sense of spring was getting stronger and stronger. The coldness in the air gradually disappeared, replaced by the warm spring sun and breeze.

Everything seemed to be a beautiful scene.

Su Jian’an held her chin with one hand, tilted her head, and looked at Lu Boyan without any scruples.

Lu Boyan was holding his iPad and reading the email, but he did not ignore Su Jian’an’s gaze.

While reading the email, Lu Boyan turned his head and looked at Su Jian’an, saying, “Jian’an, I thought you had already known how good-looking I was.”

Su Jian’an was speechless.

She had seen narcissistic people, but she had never seen someone as narcissistic as Lu Boyan, who was particularly confident.

She was speechless for a moment and then nodded in agreement. “Yes. I already knew that!”

Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows and asked, “Then why are you looking at me?”

Su Jian’an continued, “I just want to know what you, Sijue, and Yuechuan were talking about in the room.”

Lu Boyan turned off the iPad, looked at Su Jian’an meaningfully, and said, “You know what to do.”

This was his usual trick, which Su Jian’an was already familiar with.

She leaned over, kissed Lu Boyan on the cheek, and said, “Can you tell me now?”

Lu Boyan did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked at Su Jian’an and pretended to be deep in thought.

She suddenly had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, Lu Boyan smiled and said, “I’ll tell you when it’s time to do so.”

Su Jian’an didn’t know what to say.

She didn’t want to admit it, but she had indeed been fooled, or rather, she had been tricked by Lu Boyan.

“How scheming!”

Su Jian’an knew that she would get no answer to her question even if she kept asking, so she turned her head and looked out of the window angrily.

Lu Boyan was very good-looking, and she indeed never grew tired of looking at him.

But now, she would rather look out of the window.

Lu Boyan knew that Su Jian’an was mad, but he did not pamper her. Instead, he turned on the iPad again and continued to read his emails.

After he finished dealing with the e-mails, the car returned to Dingya Villas.

Su Jian’an still didn’t want to talk to Lu Boyan. She got out of the car, ran into the house, and went straight to the children’s room on the second floor.

Lu Boyan was about to follow in and pamper Su Jian’an. If he failed, he could at least see the two little kids.

However, before he could take a step forward, his assistant called and reminded him that there would be a video conference in five minutes.

He couldn’t go to the children’s room and turned to the study.

After the video conference, the assistant sent some urgent documents. Lu Boyan could only deal with the documents then. He was so busy that he had no time to catch a break, so he naturally did not have time to talk to Su Jian’an.

When Su Jian’an came back, the two little kids were just awake, and Aunt Liu was giving milk to Xiyu.

Xiyu was young and liked to sleep. He had his eyes closed while drinking milk. He could make others think that he had fallen asleep.

Su Jian’an took over Aunt Liu’s job and picked up Xiyu to give him milk.

The little boy seemed to feel that it was his mother. He opened his eyes lazily and stared at Su Jian’an for a while. Then, he loosened the pacifier and made a “hmm “sound as if he wanted to talk to Su Jian’an.

Su Jian’an couldn’t help smiling. She lowered her head and kissed the little boy, saying, “Okay now. There you go.”

Xiyu obediently put the pacifier in his mouth and drank the milk in big gulps.

Su Jian’an pampered the two little kids to sleep, and she was also sleepy. She left them to Aunt Liu and left the children’s room to go back to her room.

She passed by the study on the way.

Lu Boyan still didn’t have the door shut tightly. His voice came out faintly. It seemed that he was in a meeting,

Su Jian’an thought to herself. “I’ll let him go for the time being on account of his meeting!”

She did not go in to disturb Lu Boyan. Instead, she went straight back to the bedroom, changed her clothes, and lay down on the bed. It did not take long for her to fall asleep peacefully.

Lu Boyan was so busy that he did not finish his work until four o’clock in the afternoon. He got up and went to the children’s room to have a look. The two little kids were sleeping soundly, and Su Jian’an was not in the room.

Aunt Liu seemed to know who Lu Boyan was looking for and said, “After Xiyu and Xiangyi fell asleep, Mrs. Lu left. I saw her yawning. She should have gone back to the bedroom for sleep.”

“Got it.”

Lu Boyan turned around and walked out of the children’s room to go to the bedroom.

As expected, Su Jian’an was in the bedroom.

He didn’t know when she had fallen asleep. She was lying lazily on the bed, and the quilt had been kicked to her lower abdomen.

Without the quilt covering her, she probably felt cold and curled up into a ball.

Kicking off the quilt was Su Jian’an’s only bad habit. But because of Lu Boyan’s care, she had not changed it yet, and she did not intend to.

Lu Boyan walked over and tucked Su Jian’an in. He sat by the bed and naturally fixed his eyes on her face, unwilling to move his gaze away.
