My Hubby Can't Stop Pampering Me

As Lu Weixi was taking a sip, their eyes met and she almost choked on her water, so intensely that she felt like she was going to cough out tears. She hurriedly covered her mouth with a tissue, but the coughing didn’t stop.

Seeing this, Zhao Zihao was startled and asked, “Miss Lu, are you alright?”

“I’m… cough, cough, cough…” Lu Weixi was just about to respond when she breathed in, and the water seemed to choke her airway, making her cough even more intensely.

Zhao Zihao stood up, hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked up to her and began patting her back to help ease her cough. But as soon as his palm touched her back, another hand grabbed it forcefully.

Then the clearly articulated, strong hand flung him backward. Zhao Zihao staggered back two steps, and saw a young man in a suit, his body slim and tall, his eyes indifferent. The man immediately went to Lu Weixi’s side and patted her back for a while. When she could finally breathe properly he asked with unflustered voice, “Didn’t die, did you?”

What kind of thing is that to say! Lu Weixi was so angry she turned to glare at Qin Zhiyou. Her face was streaked with tears, flushed due to being out of breath, and her pouty, red lips showed her annoyance. Ironically, her disgruntled face was more lively than her usual cold demeanour. Qin Zhiyou found this amusing, so he added, “So you didn’t die.”

“What are you doing here?” Did he have a radar installed in him? She had not visited N University in ages, and the one time she did, she ran into him.

“Oh, my mentor’s birthday, just came to see him.” When Qin Zhiyou was in university, he had studied business management. His mentor was a nationally renowned economics professor. Of course, he had no say over when or where his mentor’s gathering would be. Even though Qin Zhiyou didn’t take his studies seriously, he had immense respect for his mentor, “And you? What brings you here?”

“A client of mine is nearby, and my car broke down here. Doctor Zhao helped me fix it. By the way, this is Doctor Zhao, my mother’s primary physician. His medical expertise saved my mother’s life,” Lu Weixi said, introducing the forgotten Zhao Zihao.

Qin Zhiyou hummed in response. After a long pause, he finally turned his gaze toward Zhao Zihao, giving him a casual once-over. He then lowered his eyes and slowly withdrew his gaze, saying, “Nice to meet you.”

Zhao Zihao nodded politely, “Nice to meet you.”

Just as they were speaking, someone from the upstairs pavilion called out to Qin Zhiyou, “We’re starting. We’ve been waiting for you. Aren’t you coming up?”

Qin Zhiyou responded and gave a noncommittal nod, “I have to go.”

As Lu Weixi was about to say something, Qin Zhiyou suddenly moved his head to her ear and whispered in a low voice, “Come home early tonight. I will be waiting for you in the bathroom.”

What? It took Lu Weixi a moment to understand what he meant. Once she did, her face and neck turned bright red. You big pervert, Qin Zhiyou! You can drink yourself to death outside for all I care, just don’t come home!

Seeing her flushed face and her mix of embarrassment and anger, Qin Zhiyou found it all amusing. If it weren’t for his professor waiting upstairs, he surely would want to stay by her side and tease her more.

But just as he was about to leave in the elevator, Qin Zhiyou glanced at Zhao Zihao, who was still wearing a gentle smile. There was a hint of wariness and sharpness in his gaze.

It was only when Qin Zhiyou was completely out of sight that Lu Weixi managed to take a deep breath. Zhao Zihao handed her a cup of water which she thanked him for and took a sip.. Zhao Zihao was direct with his question: “That was Qin Zhiyou, the president of Hanhai Group, wasn’t it?”
