Chapter 370: Being there for you

Translator: CokeZero Editor: Rainystars

Xie Yunjin saw her smile and also beamed in response. He raised his hand and patted the bed beside him, “Jiaojiao, come up and sleep.”

Lu Jiao reminded him with a warning, “I only agreed to give each other a chance to get to know each other and see if we are compatible. Don’t take advantage of the situation, or else I may take back what I said.”

Xie Yunjin immediately spoke seriously, “I understand. I won’t do it again. The reason I asked you to stay tonight is because I’m injured and I wanted you to accompany me.”

After these words, silence fell.

A person who was originally exceptionally handsome and elegant appeared melancholy as he lay quietly on the bed, looking lonely. This sight could stir compassion in anybody. Lu Jiao, however, was completely unaware of her own softness.

“Okay, don’t let it happen again.”

A fleeting smile flashed in Xie Yunjin’s dark eyes. He raised his head and looked at Lu Jiao with a serious promise, “Jiaojiao, rest assured, I won’t make inappropriate requests that I shouldn’t make in the future.”

“Mm.”

Lu Jiao remained silent and went to lie down beside him to sleep. novelbuddy.c om

Xie Yunjin slowly reached out and held Lu Jiao’s hand. Lu Jiao turned her head, seemingly grinning, “You just said you won’t do it again.”

Xie Yunjin said softly, “I meant starting tomorrow.”

Lu Jiao looked at him speechlessly. In the end, she didn’t say anything and allowed him to hold her hand.

She closed her eyes slowly, but for some reason, she couldn’t fall asleep. Memories of her past life surfaced in her mind, and suddenly she felt the urge to confide in someone, so she opened her mouth and spoke.

“In fact, my situation was similar to yours. In my past life, my parents didn’t love each other. They were forced into a marriage by their families. Soon after I was born, they both found people they liked and then divorced.”

Xie Yunjin didn’t expect Lu Jiao to suddenly talk about her past life. He turned to look at her silently, listening without saying a word.

When he heard about the divorce, he couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “Divorce?”

Lu Jiao turned to look at him and explained, “Yes, they separated.”

Xie Yunjin gazed at Lu Jiao, unable to control his heartache for her. It turned out that someone as bright and sunny as she had experienced a similar situation to his own. Yet, she still grew up so beautifully.

Xie Yunjin really wanted to reach out and comfort Lu Jiao, but he held back, remembering her warning.

Lu Jiao continued, “At that time, I was just a few years old. I saw them divorce, saw them quarrel, saw that they didn’t want me. In the end, after some discussion, they sent me to a boarding school.”

Lu Jiao explained the concept of a boarding school then, “Boarding school is where students lived and studied in the school premises. Normally, they would go home only once a month.

Others would go home once a month, but I could only go home every six months because they didn’t want me. During the summer and winter vacations, they pushed me back and forth, not wanting me at all.

Where I grew up, the schools have summer and winter vacations. Summer vacation lasts for over fifty days, and winter vacation is more than twenty days.”

Lu Jiao continued, “During my vacations, I always stayed with relatives. Although they didn’t dare to say it to my face, they gossiped behind my back, saying that I was a child abandoned by my parents. They thought I was a poor thing.”

As she spoke, Lu Jiao seemed remarkably calm. Unlike before, when she talked about this, she used to feel a lot of pain and distress.

“I studied from elementary school to middle school, then continued to high school and university. I was always alone. Later, in university, I studied medicine and after graduating, I joined the military and became a military doctor,” Lu Jiao narrated calmly.

Beside her, Xie Yunjin looked at her with surprise, “Lu Jiao, you’re a military doctor.”

No wonder she had always been decisive, kind-hearted, and willing to help the weak. It was because she was a military doctor.

A military doctor!

Thinking about Lu Jiao’s past life identity, Xie Yunjin couldn’t help but admire her. But at the same time, he couldn’t bear the thought of such a wonderful person having such heartless parents. Although he didn’t have the love of his own parents, his second brother had always taken care of him and accompanied him as he grew up. However, Lu Jiao had always been alone since childhood. He couldn’t imagine how lonely and isolated she must have felt.

Xie Yunjin suddenly reached out and embraced Lu Jiao’s body. Lu Jiao hesitated for a moment and began to struggle. Xie Yunjin gently whispered to her, “Don’t move, let me hold you. If possible, I really want to go back to your childhood and be there for you instead of your parents.”

This sentence instantly struck Lu Jiao’s heart. She quietly nestled in Xie Yunjin’s embrace, enjoying the warmth of this moment.

Not knowing whether it was because this embrace was too comfortable or because she yearned for this feeling, she eventually fell asleep in Xie Yunjin’s arms.

Xie Yunjin looked down at her, slowly forming a gentle smile. He bent down and kissed her forehead lightly.

“Jiaojiao, from now on, I will cherish and love you. I won’t let you suffer in this lifetime.’

The scene of the two of them embracing and sleeping together in the room was like a painting.

The next day, when Lu Jiao woke up, she saw the man beside her, leaning on his hands and looking at her, his dark eyes filled with affection and tenderness.

Seeing him like this, Lu Jiao’s cheeks blushed uncontrollably. And when she remembered that she had slept in his arms last night, she felt even more embarrassed.

Were they moving too fast?

Lu Jiao thought to herself silently and she quickly got up, rolled off the bed, and headed towards the door.

Behind her, Xie Yunjin pursed his lips and smiled. Lu Jiao’s awkwardness was really adorable. He now understood her awkvvardness stemmed from the fact that she had never experienced someone loving her, so she didn’t know how to respond.

After Lu Jiao washed up in the back courtyard, she calmed down.

As someone who had transmigrated to this world, should she be afraid of the advances of someone from ancient times? If he dared to make a move on her again, she would retaliate.

Lu Jiao made up her mind firmly in her heart.

Due to Xie Yunjin’s injury, Lu Jiao took the four little ones to the front yard to eat together.

During the meal, the four little ones noticed the apparent change in the relationship between their father and mother. Their father looked at their mother with a smile in his eyes, and their mother seemed a little shy.

It was really rare for their mommy to act in such a manner. The four little ones looked at them, feeling surprised.

Lu Jiao couldn’t help but snort when she noticed the little ones glancing at her from time to time, “What are you looking at?”

“Mommy, you seem to be feeling shy?” The Second Born, who was always straightforward, said.

Lu Jiao immediately gave him a disdainful look and said unkindly, “What does a child like you know about being shy? I’m a grown adult, why would I be shy?”

The Second Born’s companion, First Born, was always intelligent. He quickly interjected, “Yes, mommy is not shy. Don’t speak nonsense.”

The Second Born let out a long “oh” sound and was about to say something more when Lu Gui hurriedly entered the room and reported, “Brother-in-law, sister, Officer Zhao is here.’

Upon hearing that Officer Zhao had arrived, Xie Yunjin knew there might be important matters. He asked Lu Gui to take the four little ones to the east wing to prepare for their lessons. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝓌ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝘷ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

The four little ones obediently followed Lu Gui to attend their lessons..
