I Married the Second Male Lead After Reincarnating

  Xia Zimu understood, and asked again: "When you are abroad, you seldom show up as the CEO of Yanjiu. Recently, you have been in and out of public places so frequently, is it okay?"

   "No problem. I used to hide from people, but now I don't need it."

   "Why not?"

   "Because I already have the strength to protect myself."

   Also has the ability to protect those he cares about.

  Xia Zimu was suspicious, but it was someone else's private matter after all, and she couldn't ask too much, so she turned to work.

  Jinghao Lu had already spent money to go through various procedures some time ago. Today, the people at the top just went through the process when they came down, and finished their work and left in more than an hour.

  It's neither early nor late, and it happened to be past the off-duty time when I returned to the company. Xia Zimu had a whim, and wanted to climb a mountain in the south to see the whole picture of Lanshui.

   Lu Jinghao accompanied her up the mountain, He Tian and Jiang Ximian followed behind them.

  This mountain is not considered high, but no one has been there for a long time. The road up the mountain is covered with shrubs and boulders, and the road cannot be seen.

  Xia Zimu wore business attire, and her shoes were also half-heeled high heels. When she reached the foot of the mountain, she realized that her pair of shoes seemed not suitable for climbing.

   Lu Jinghao also noticed her shoes, and reminded: "Why don't you go back."

  Xia Zimu rejected his proposal, "I can run in high heels, no problem."

  People have come here, she has no habit of giving up halfway, she just wants to move forward.

   Lu Jinghao frowned, but didn't say much, just walked to her side and pulled her in silence.

  Xia Zimu knew that he meant well, so he didn't break free, and climbed up with him.

  When he was halfway up the mountain, a thin python of various colors suddenly emerged from the grass beside him, and Xia Zimu took a step back in fright.

  At this time, the **** of the mountain was a bit steep, and the ground behind her was much lower than she expected.

  She stepped on the ground, was startled, sprained her foot, took two steps back, and was about to fall.

  The next second, Lu Jinghao reached out to wrap her arms around her waist, and with a little force, he pulled her back into his arms and hugged her firmly.

  Xia Zimu was still in shock, and reflexively hugged Lu Jinghao.

  The unsteady heartbeat was still in her ears, and the scent of herbs lingering in her nose gradually made her feel at ease.

  Jinghao Lu's worried voice came from above his head: "Are you all right?"

  Xia Zimu shook his head, "It's fine."

   Lu Jinghao let go of her, "Be careful."

  Xia Zimu responded and continued to go up.

  Take the first step, and there is a heartache in the ankle.

  She swayed a few times and fell backwards again.

   Then fell into Lu Jinghao's arms again.

  He was worried that she would fall again, so he walked behind her silently.

   Unexpectedly, she actually fell again.

  She tries to get out of his arms.

   Yet it couldn't push him at all.

  She was about to say something when Jinghao Lu asked, "Are you sprained?"

   "...Well." After a pause, she added: "But it's not really painful, and I can continue walking."

  She is not a delicate person, she can still bear this little injury.

  Jiang Ximian and He Tian were originally lagging behind, but now they are catching up.

  Jiang Ximian whistled, "Sixth brother, sixth sister-in-law, this is still outside, please restrain yourself."

  Xia Zimu's face became hot, and he tried to push Jinghao Lu away again.

   This time it was easy to push away.

   But soon, Lu Jinghao took her wrist, pulled her to turn around, and faced down the mountain.

  Jinghao Lu let go of her, turned his back, bent his knees slightly, and said in a cold and forceful voice, "Come up."

  Xia Zimu doesn't like to bother others very much. Although her feet are slightly swollen, she still insists: "No, I can walk by myself."

   Lu Jinghao gave her two options: "Come up, or, I'll carry you down the mountain."

  Xia Zimu pursed his lips, in the end it was a compromise.

  She stretched out her hand, and tentatively put it on Lu Jinghao's shoulder.

   He has a large frame and unusually broad shoulders.

  She touched the fabric of his expensive suit, and wanted to withdraw her hand as if she was electrocuted, but he held her hand.

  He led her to cross her hands in front of his neck, paused, and said, "I'm sorry."

   After speaking, he grabbed her legs and carried her on his back.

   Before Jiang Ximian realized what happened, he saw his sixth brother recite the sixth sister-in-law.

  He froze for a few seconds, "Are you...Zhu Bajie carrying his wife?"

  He Tian who was following aside: "..."

   It is amazing that this small mouth is so good at talking, and it is still not dumb.

   Lu Jinghao gave him a fair look, and Jiang Ximian swallowed all the rest of the joke.

   dare not say, dare not say.

  With people on his back, Lu Jinghao's steps were still steady without any effort.

  Jiang Ximian followed behind, tsk-tsk said: "My sixth brother is so manly, even a woman is so domineering!"

  He Tian: There is no doubt that I am a little fan.

  Xia Zimu was being carried by someone for the first time as an adult, and he was a little embarrassed, "If you think it's heavy, put me down, I can actually go."

  Jinghao Lu breathed steadily, "Not heavy."

  Xia Zimu saw that he really didn't look tired, so he didn't say anything more.

  The group of people quickly descended to the foot of the mountain and walked towards the location where the car was parked.

   Lu Jinghao sent Xia Zimu home. After parking the car, Lu Jinghao carried her up the stairs again.

  Xia Zimu didn't resist this time, and let him carry it obediently.

   It was only at the door that Lu Jinghao put her down.

   After entering the room, Lu Jinghao helped her sit down on the sofa, and used a pillow to help her raise her swollen feet. Then, he found a first-aid kit with ease, took out gauze and bandaged her in the figure "8".

  He unbuttoned his suit, squatted down at her feet, and held her injured foot in his hand.

  Xia Zimu flinched, "It's actually not serious, I don't need to bandage it, just put some ice on it, and it will be fine tomorrow."

   Lu Jinghao raised his head, his eyes darkened.

  He got down on one knee and squatted at her feet.

  It should have been an extremely humble gesture, but the aura around him was so strong that it could not be ignored.

   "Xia Zimu."

   It's been a while since he called her by her full name since changing to her nickname.

  Xia Zimu inexplicably heard a serious feeling, "Say it."

   "I know you're not used to showing weakness to others," he said in a serious tone, rare and tough, "but when you need help from others, occasionally you should bow your head.

   "I can solve many things for you, so you don't have to live so tired."

  Xia Zimu read the deeper meaning of his words.

  He was messing with her.

  Being complaining about the things that happened before.

  She was quiet for a few seconds and said, "I don't want to owe you too much."

   "It's still the same sentence, I owe you my life, and it's not too much for you to ask me for anything."

  Xia Zimu fell silent.

  Lu Jinghao sighed softly, took a step back and said, "Let's not talk about other things for now, you can trouble me for such small things as sprained feet in the future."

   After a long time, Xia Zimu nodded and gave a soft "hmm".

   Lu Jinghao helped her take care of the wound, and brought an ice pack to apply ice to her.

   After all this was done, it was completely dark outside.

  Jinghao Lu took off his suit jacket, rolled up his sleeves, put on his apron, and cooked for himself.

  Xia Zimu felt a little sorry, "Sorry, I was supposed to treat you to dinner today..."

   In the end, he had to cook by himself.

"fine."

   When Lu Jinghao walked into the kitchen, Xia Zimu hugged the dog and sat on the sofa in the living room watching him busy, feeling a strange feeling in his heart.

  Her apartment is not big, but there are more people, which drove away the desertedness of the past.

   Not long after, the apartment doorbell rang.

   Lu Jinghao went to open the door.

  Gu Huaixi stood outside the door, and was obviously stunned when he saw him.
