Chapter 1370
The cogs started turning in Ren’s mind. He immediately recalled the soup his mother made for him
today. She even urged him to drink three entire bowls of it. Well, he finally realized what had gone into
his mother’s soup.
Ren could only chuckle bittcrly to himself. What was his mother worried about anyway? Did she have
so little faith in her son? Her meddling had ended up backfiring instead.
“He didn’t take anything, though,” Ruka said from the side.
“My mom came and made some soup for me. I didn’t know what went in it, but I drank three bowls of
it,* Ren added.
Silas fell silent. He had gotten the wrong idea-it was Charlotte’s well-meaning intentions that led to this
mess instead!
“Drink some chicken soup or something next time! You shouldn’t be drinking anything with all that
added to it.” Silas sighed. He glanced at Ren’s bleeding wound and said, “Looks like you’ll have to stay
in bed a few days longer.”
Ren threw Silas a gloomy look while Ruka seemed to have gotten the picture at last. She bit her lip as
she thought, So the reason why he acted like he was out of his mind earlier was because of that soup?
Alas! Charlotte could not be blamed for it either. She did not know that he was injured.
Thankfully, his wound had only bled out a little without worsening his condition.
Ren was also a lot calmer now after being given a shot of sedatives. Silas left after giving some
instructions. Once they were gone, Ren sat down on the bed and kissed Ruka on her cheek. “Did I give
you a fright just now?”
Could she say yes? She looked up at him and pouted. “You were so beastly! You said you were going
to count to three, but you jumped straight to three right away! I didn’t even have the chance to say no.”
Ren’s eyes flashed with a cunning glint as he smirked. He never intended to give her a chance to say
no!
“Alright, alright. I won’t tease you like that next time.” Ren squeezed her hand. Although he was a lot
calmer now, deep down inside him, the desire he felt was still going strong.
