217 There Was a Strong Smell of Gunpowder Between the Two of Them

“Don’t be afraid, I won’t let you fall,” Rong Zhan comforted Gu Lin as if he had seen through Gu Lin’s uneasiness.

Gu Lin did not know how to describe his feelings.

So this was the feeling of having a father. It was indeed wonderful and special.

Gu Lin’s lips unconsciously curled into a smile. He leaned gently against Rong Zhan and said in a low voice, “Thank you, uncle.”

“You’re welcome,” Rong Zhan replied softly as well.

Gu Qingxue watched the scene from a distance, her heart tightening for some reason.

It was the original owner’s mood that had affected her.

If the original owner’s husband had not pa.s.sed away, he would probably have taken care of the three children in the same way.

At this moment, the sound of the door being pushed open could be heard. Then, a figure staggered in from outside the door.

Nine was leaning on his walking stick with one hand, carrying a basket of dried tree branches on his back.

He seemed to have been out for a long time. His nose and face were all red from the cold, and even the way he walked seemed to be a little wider.

As soon as he entered the door, he could clearly feel that something was wrong. When Nine raised his head, he happened to meet Rong Zhan.

Suddenly, they seemed to have realized something at the same time, and a strong smell of gunpowder immediately arose between the two of them.

Gu Qingxue, who was sandwiched between the two of them, could not help but s.h.i.+ver.

She did not know why, but she felt that the two of them seemed to be at odds with each other.

Nine’s body was weak. He took a breath of the cold air and coughed hard.

Gu Qingxue quickly put down Rong Han and reached out to take the bamboo basket in Nine’s hand. “Slow down, are you okay?”

Seeing Gu Qingxue’s worried eyes, Nine felt warm in his heart. Even the coldness on his body was diluted. “I’m fine. I’m a little tired after being in the wind for so long.”

“Why did you go out on your own? How many times have I told you to do the housework according to your ability? If you’re weak, it’s fine even if you don’t do anything,” Gu Qingxue asked in a worried tone.

After spending the past few days together, Gu Qingxue could tell that Nine was a good person. He even took special care of the three children, and he was not as wary of her as he was at the beginning.

Besides, as a doctor, what she cared about the most was the recovery of the patient, so she naturally could not let Nine do whatever he wanted.

“I saw that we were running out of firewood, so I went to pick some up. I’ll definitely listen to you next time. I won’t run around, and I’ll wait for you at home,” Nine said without a trace of hesitation.

Rong Zhan’s expression immediately changed, and the pressure around him instantly dropped to the extreme.

“Han’er, don’t whisper it. Tell daddy what exactly is wrong with you.” Rong Zhan put down the three children in his arms and bent down to ask Rong Han with concern.

Rong Han’s face was full of confusion, and his head was filled with questions. He let his father carry him up.

When did he whisper that he was not feeling well? Was his father stupid?

Besides, when would he have the time to feel uncomfortable? He was still anxious to find out who the uncle who was chatting and laughing with the fairy was!

The fairy was his future mother, so she could only chat and laugh with his father.

He could not let this man of unknown origin s.n.a.t.c.h the fairy away!

Just as Rong Han subconsciously opened his mouth to say that he was fine, his gaze met with Rong Zhan’s.

The father and son used their eyes to communicate. Everything was said without words.

Rong Han saw Rong Zhan use his gaze to signal Nine. She immediately understood and reached out to cover her little heart. “Oh… Father, my chest is so stuffy. It’s so uncomfortable. Cough, cough, cough!”

As he spoke, he lowered his head to hide the sly little fox-like smile in his eyes.

It was just coughing, right? He could do it too!
