Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1303: Chapter 1317: Mind Your Status

Jiang Xinru slapped her forehead. ”Oh no, I forgot to check. No, I have to go take a look.”

She was about to get out of bed when Lin Weidong grabbed her. ”Enough, don’t go. If the kids find out you’re spying on them, how awkward would that be? Totally beneath us as parents.”

The main thing was, if the kids found out they were peeking, would they get embarrassed? Then when would they ever get to hold their grandchild?

Jiang Xinru thought about it and felt it made sense. ”Fine, I won’t look. Anyway, as long as the two of them go into the same room, the whole Lin Family house is theirs to wreck as they please. Even if they want to come to our room, I’d clear out for them right away.”

Lin Weidong looked thoroughly disgusted. ”You’re about to be a mother-in-law and you’re talking more and more out of line. You’d better watch it from now on.”

Jiang Xinru had no time to expose Lin Weidong’s pretentious act; she nodded in full agreement. ”Right, right, right, we’re going to be in-laws now. In front of our daughter-in-law, we still have to be mindful of our status.”

The two of them shut their mouths at the same time, but neither felt like sleeping. With the bedside lamp on, they lay there with their ears tilted, trying to catch the sounds coming from a few rooms away.

It was just that there were too many rooms in between. Aside from the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves outside the window, they couldn’t hear a thing.

Suddenly, the two of them looked at each other, both wearing the same disgusted expression. Jiang Xinru struck first. ”As the father-in-law, are you trying to listen to your own son and daughter-in-law’s bed creaking?”

Lin Weidong looked at the woman with equal disdain. ”Don’t think I can’t see the filthy little thoughts in your eyes.”

”Sleep!”

The two spoke in unison and dived under the covers at the same time. Their identical movements really lived up to their twenty-odd years of marriage.

Lin Junyang carried Xiao Xiao straight into the guest room. The housekeeper set the slippers by the bed and, very tactfully, was about to slip away.

Just then the girl turned over and mumbled, ”So thirsty.”

”Go pour a glass of water, warm.” Lin Junyang said without looking back, his eyes taking in the girl’s outfit as he debated whether to help her change into pajamas.

Before long, the housekeeper came back with a glass of warm water. Lin Junyang helped her sit up. ”Here, drink some water.”

Xiao Xiao held onto Lin Junyang’s hand and gulped down several big mouthfuls before she finally lifted her eyelids to glance at the person above her.

With just one look, she almost spat the water out. She immediately rolled over onto the bed, yanked the blanket over her head, stopped drinking, and played dead.

Lin Junyang had no idea what kind of crazy she was pulling again. He downed the remaining half glass of water in one go and said to the housekeeper behind him, ”Help Miss Xiao change into pajamas.”

How could she sleep comfortably dressed like this?

Hearing the sound of Lin Junyang leaving the room, Xiao Xiao shot up, making the housekeeper, who was walking over with the pajamas, jump in fright.

”Miss Xiao, do you want me to help you change into your pajamas?”

Xiao Xiao lowered her head and glanced at the clothes on her body, then flopped back onto the bed, mumbling, ”Just leave them. I’ll do it myself. You can go out.”

The housekeeper, still worried, set the pajamas down and reminded her twice more before leaving the room. And Xiao Xiao, at the moment the door clicked shut, had already slipped into dreamland.

The gentle morning sunlight shone in through the window, a beam of light falling through a gap in the curtains.

”Ah—”

Xiao Xiao cried out and sat up, her eyes blinking blankly.

What did she do yesterday? She’d apparently drunk alcohol, and then what? Then she seemed to have fallen asleep in the car, and he’d carried her into the house.

No, how could that guy Lin Junyang possibly be that gentle with her?
