Marriage First, True Love Later Novel

169 Allergic to seafood

In the end, due to the fact that it was difficult to find a job now, she accompanied the mother and son for a meal without knowing the reason. During this period, Zhou Han’s mother held her hand and said a lot of things. However, from the words of the Zhou family’s old Madam, she could vaguely hear that Zhou han did not seem to have a good relationship with his father. The father and son seemed to have not contacted each other for a few years. Mother Zhou was a husband on one side and a son on the other. It had not been easy for her to be stuck between the two all these years.

On the third day after that strange dinner, when she was introducing a house to her clients, he called and said that he wanted to treat her to dinner that night and would wait for her at the same restaurant after work.

When she entered the private room, before she even had time to drink the water, he had already handed her a document, indicating for her to open it. She thought it was something related to work, but after reading it, she realized it was a prenuptial agreement. Actually, it was not a prenuptial agreement, but more like a contract. However, the transaction was not for the house, but for marriage.

Lin Li was dumbfounded when she took the document. She didn’t understand what he meant at all.

Zhou han didn’t beat around the bush and went straight to the point, saying that he wanted to have a contract marriage with her. It was the kind of melodramatic joke that Lin Li always used in s or TV series-‘a contract husband and wife’!

She didn’t understand and couldn’t accept it, so she asked him why.

Zhou han didn’t say much. He only told her to read the contract carefully before considering whether to agree or not. He even made it clear that she could treat this as a job.

At that time, she felt that it was completely ridiculous. Although she would not love again because of Chengxiang’s matter, she never thought that she would use her marriage as a trade. Therefore, she pushed the contract back to him on the spot to express her stand.

Zhou han looked at the folder on the table and was silent for a while. He only said that he would push the folder directly in front of her again. Then, he looked at her and said, think about it first and don’t rush to reply to me. She can give me an answer after thinking about it. Of course, if she doesn’t accept it, I won’t force her. &ampQuot

The atmosphere at dinner that day wasn’t too stiff, but it wasn’t very harmonious either. She thought that he would say something more to her, or at least persuade her to agree, but he didn’t. The two of them didn’t say a word during the entire meal. When they walked out of the restaurant after eating, he at least politely offered to send her home. He didn’t say anything on the way, only waiting for her to get out of the car so that she could seriously consider it.

If she hadn’t received a call from her family the next day, she might not have considered this matter. However, she could hear her parents ‘worry for her through the phone. She could also tell that her family owed her relatives and neighbors a lot of money because of her father’s previous illness. Some of them were in urgent need of money because something had happened to their family. They had no choice but to ask if they could arrange for some of the money they had borrowed to be returned to them. Although her parents didn’t want to be bothered by this, they really had no choice. That was why they asked her to ask if she could find someone to help.

After hanging up the phone, she picked up the contract again. This time, she looked at it seriously, but it was just a business relationship. Marriage to the two of them was really just a business deal. The terms in the contract were very clear and reasonable. It did not give people the feeling that they were biased towards each other. The two of them were simply in a business relationship, and there was no difference in status between them.

When she took the contract to Zhou han again, Zhou han wasn’t too surprised. In addition, he immediately agreed to her request that he could lend her a sum of money before the marriage. However, he also made a request. He hoped that she could be responsible for picking up his son from school. Of course, he could let her get off work early.

Lin Li didn’t feel that his request was too much, so the two of them signed the contract directly under the witness of a lawyer. Then, the next morning after signing the contract, they went directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

The car slowly came to a stop because of the traffic light in front of them. When Lin Li recovered from her previous memories, she couldn’t help but feel that she had gone a little crazy. When she first heard Anran talk about a flash marriage, she found it hard to accept. She even thought that such a thing would never happen to her, but it really did happen. In fact, she felt helpless.

He looked up from the rearview mirror and wanted to see what the little guy was doing. However, the little guy had stopped playing with his Transformers toy and turned to look outside. His eyes were fixed, and his face had an expression that was suitable for his age. He had a look of yearning.

Lin Li was curious and followed his gaze. There was a KFC on the opposite side of the road. At this moment, a mother who had just picked up her child from school was holding her child’s hand and walking in. The child seemed to be even younger than Xiao bin and was now happily jumping around.

Lin Li glanced at it, and the corners of her mouth curled up. She turned to look at the little guy and said, Xiaobin, Auntie will take you to KFC, okay?

Hearing that, the little guy turned his head and looked at her. A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes as he looked at Lin Li with anticipation.

As soon as Lin Li stopped the car by the side of the road, Jiabin had already opened the door and was about to head to KFC.

Worried that there would be too many people on the road, Lin Li quickly locked the car, opened the door, and ran forward to hold his hand. &ampQuot come, Auntie will take you there. &ampQuot

The little guy frowned, seemingly disgusted by Lin Li’s touch. He reached out to shake Lin Li’s hand off.

However, Lin Li seemed to have seen through his thoughts. She held his hand tightly and half-bent her body to look at him and said with a threatening tone, If you don’t let me hold your hand, I won’t take you to KFC!

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jiabin’s eyes widened and he looked at her fixedly, as if he was complaining to Lin Li about how she could go back on her words!

Seeing his reaction, Lin Li knew that her move was effective against him. She let go of his hand and stood up straight. The corners of her mouth were half-curved into a smile as she looked at him fixedly.

Zhou Jiabin looked at her, and from time to time, he turned to look at the KFC across the street, as if he was making a final decision.

Lin Li held back her laughter and extended her hand to him. &ampQuot give me your hand if you want to eat hamburgers and fries. If you don’t want to, we’ll go home now. &ampQuot

The little guy stared at her for a while before he finally raised his hand unwillingly and placed it in her palm. Then, he turned his head away in a fit of pique and did not look at her.

Lin Li held back her laughter and held his hand. When the traffic light passed, she held his hand and led him to KFC opposite.

There were quite a lot of people in the shop at the moment, but most of them were children from all ages, from kindergarten to high school.

In front of Lin Li and the others was a mother and daughter. The little girl looked about the same age as Jia bin, but she didn’t look as unhappy as Jia bin. At this moment, she looked very happy, holding her mother’s hand and looking up at her mother. She said in a sweet voice, &ampQuot mom, I want to eat that shrimp Castle. There are so many delicious shrimp in there. Tongtong loves that. &ampQuot

The mother looked down at her daughter with eyes full of love. She touched her daughter’s head and nodded, Alright, Tongtong, you can eat whatever you want.

Lin Li lowered her head and looked at the little guy who was standing next to her while she was holding his hand. She saw that he was really staring at the mother and daughter. Although he didn’t show anything on his face, Lin Li could see the envy in his big, black eyes.

Lin Li didn’t say anything, but she couldn’t help but feel a little distressed for this child. Not to mention that her mother wasn’t by her side, just looking at Zhou Han’s attitude towards the child, she could tell that this child had never actually received the warmth and happiness that his family had brought him. He had never received the care and love from his parents.

Suddenly, she felt a little uncomfortable. Thinking of her child who was not fated to be born into this world, Lin Li only felt that her chest was stuffy and painful. She subconsciously reached out and directly covered her chest.

Lin Li didn’t know how long the dull pain lasted until the little guy pulled her hand. Lin Li snapped out of her thoughts, and the pain in her chest slowly subsided. The mother and daughter who were originally standing in front of them had already ordered a meal, and the mother who loved her daughter had indeed listened to her daughter’s request and bought her a shrimp Castle. In addition, she was especially considerate and bought a cup of hot milk for her child.

After calming herself down, Lin Li took the little guy’s hand and went up. Just as she was about to ask him what he wanted to eat, she saw him staring straight at the order list on the table. His eyes kept turning, but his gaze didn’t leave the fresh shrimp fortress that had been specially made for publicity. The picture on it was very tempting, and the fresh shrimp meat made people want to go up and take a bite.

Lin Li understood and looked at him with a faint smile. &ampQuot Do you want to eat shrimp burger too?

The little guy turned around and looked at her as if he was asking her if she was okay with it.

Lin Li smiled and turned to the waiter. &ampQuot I gave you two shrimp forts and a serving of sweet potato. As he spoke, he turned to look at the little guy and asked, Do you want some grilled wings? or do you want to eat anything else?

The little guy reacted quickly this time. Although he still didn’t say anything, he nodded and pointed at the chicken popcorn and Coke on the menu.

Alright, he said. Lin Li smiled and touched his head, then turned to the waiter and said, &ampQuot then I’ll have a pair of wings, and a Colonel’s chicken and chicken rice. As for the drink, I’ll have a glass of milk and a glass of coke. &ampQuot

Alright, he said. The waiter nodded with a smile and then went to bring the dishes she ordered.

Carrying the ordered food to his seat, Zhou Jiabin seemed a little excited throughout the entire process. Of course, his excitement was not directly shown on his face, but Lin Li believed that he must be very happy at this moment with his sparkling eyes.

The truth proved that Lin Li’s guess was right. The little guy was really excited. As he ate the burger, he actually forgot to guard himself and smiled at Lin Li innocently a few times.

This was the first time Lin Li had seen this child so happy. She pitied him for all his previous experiences, so the maternal love in her heart was immediately released. When he finished eating a big burger and stared at the burger in front of her that had not been touched, Lin Li only smiled and pushed her own burger to him, saying, I’ll give you this if you can still eat it.

Hearing that, the little guy directly reached out and took the burger in front of her and started eating.

Lin Li only watched him eat and didn’t move much. There was a smile on her lips the entire time. In fact, it was strange. In the past, her stomach had always been called the invincible big stomach King of the Universe by Anran. Even if there was a table full of food, she could finish it all with a good appetite. However, ever since that incident, she seemed to have lost her appetite at all. She didn’t seem to have the desire to eat anything, and she even began to hate it. She wouldn’t eat until she was really hungry and uncomfortable. She couldn’t help but wonder if she was suffering from anorexia.

When they came out of the KFC, it was almost six O ‘clock. Anran still held his hand and crossed the road. Perhaps it was because of the KFC meal just now, but this time, Zhou Jiabin didn’t refuse to let her hold his hand. He seemed a little obedient as he let her lead him across the road.

Lin Li glanced at him with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. She thought to herself that she had pulled her relationship with this little guy a little closer today. This KFC meal was really not in vain.

As usual, she opened the door to the back seat and sat directly in. Lin Li didn’t force him to accept her completely now. She also knew that some things needed time to slowly adjust, so she restarted the car and continued on the road.

When the car slowly drove into a villa community in the suburbs, it stopped in front of a three-story house. He turned off the car and said without looking back, Xiaobin, we’re here.

As she spoke, she took her bag from the passenger seat and the coat that she had taken off because of the heat. When she was almost done tidying up, she still didn’t hear the sound of the back seat opening. She was a little puzzled. She turned around and saw the little guy lying on the back seat, holding his stomach. His little face was pale and he looked like he was in pain.

Lin Li was a little frightened by his actions and quickly asked, Xiaobin, what’s wrong? Are you uncomfortable?

Xiao bin only held his stomach, it was obvious that the pain in his stomach made him unable to speak, and his forehead began to sweat because of the pain.

He threw the things in his hands down again, opened the door and got out of the car. He opened the door of the back seat and leaned over to ask the little guy, &ampQuot Xiaobin, where do you feel uncomfortable? tell Auntie, is it your stomach?

The little guy could only nod with some difficulty. The pain from his stomach made him hold his stomach tightly.

Lin Li was also a little flustered. She was so anxious that she didn’t know what to do. She was even stunned for a while before she returned to the car and took the little guy’s car directly to the hospital.

When Lin Li sent the child to the hospital, the doctor examined the little guy. Only then did Lin Li know that the little guy’s stomach pain was due to an allergic reaction. It was also only then that she knew that the little guy had a serious allergic reaction to all seafood. Even if he ate a little, there would be an immediate effect. If it was serious, if he wasn’t sent to the hospital for treatment in time, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

After the doctor examined the child, it was confirmed that there were no major problems. However, due to the child’s young age, the doctor arranged for him to stay in the hospital for observation for a night.

Looking at the child lying on the hospital bed, Lin Li’s heart ached and she blamed herself. If she hadn’t said that she would take her to eat KFC, perhaps he wouldn’t be like this now.

The person on the bed was obviously not sleeping well. Her eyes were tightly closed, as if she was dreaming about something. Her eyelids were moving, and her hands were waving in the air in a panic. She even muttered, father ... Father, don’t, don’t leave me ... &ampQuot

Lin Li’s heart ached a little. She reached out and gently touched his face, then gently said in his ear, it’s okay, it’s okay. Auntie is here, Auntie is here. &ampQuot

She didn’t know if he had heard her, but he had really become much quieter.

She sat in the ward for a while longer to make sure that his emotions had stabilized before she opened the door and went out quietly.

She took out her phone and called Zhou han. Now that something had happened to her child, although it was still not a big problem, as the child’s biological father, she felt that it was necessary to inform him about the matter.

The phone rang a few times before Zhou han picked it up. He seemed to have a client on his side, and she heard a bit of noise.

Is there something? Zhou Han’s cold voice sounded on the other side of the phone without any warmth.

Lin Li came back to her senses and quickly said, Xiaobin is allergic to seafood and has to be hospitalized.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before he asked, How is it now?

&ampQuot he’s fine now, but the doctor said that he has to stay in the hospital for observation for a night. &ampQuot Lin Li said truthfully.

Oh. On the other end of the phone, Zhou han replied coldly and only said, I still have something to do. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first. Then, without waiting for Lin Li to react, he hung up the phone.

Lin Li held the phone and looked at it for a long time. She simply couldn’t believe that he had hung up the phone just like that, as if the child in the hospital this time wasn’t his at all!
