Chapter 671

Lulu bit her lip. “Stop it..."

Before she could finish, Zachary's lips were already on hers.

He was holding her very tightly. Despite Lulu’s disgust, she could notrefuse for appearance’s sake, so she pretended to be embarrassed."Don't..."

Zachary brushed against her cheek. "We're lovers. Kissing is fine."Lulu said, "But I forgot about that.”

"You'd remember if I kissed you more.’

“You're such a scoundrel.” She pretended to pout and slipped out of hisarms.

Zachary naturally knew that he should not be impatient, and he simplybore with it. "Why? It's normal for lovers, and I will take responsibility foryou- just say the word, and I will marry you right away."

Lulu did not want to talk about that, so she quickly changed thesubject. When would you finish work? It's so boring staying here."

“I'l be done soon," Zachary said.

"Hurry," she urged.

"Yeah."

Still, he was only done when the skies were dark and it was almost timefor dinner.

Zachary looked for a restaurant that offers delicious seafood stew forLulu, and she ordered a lot of seafood, along with an extra spicy stew.As Zachary glanced at the pot of redness that resembled magmabursting out of a volcano, he then glanced at his bandaged arm.

As a doctor, he knew that he should not be eating that stuff since itwould ruin his recovery.

Seeing that he was not moving, Lulu put some stewed mackerel sliceson Zachary's plate. "Why aren't you eating, Zachary? Don't you like toeat with me?"

"No," Zachary went to work right then. "Of course I love being withyou."

Lulu diligently put more chunks of seafood in his plate then. "It's good.You should have more."

Zachary had a low tolerance for spicy food in the first place.

Greasy, spicy food like this was basically torture to him!

However, he did not want to be a killjoy since Lulu was eating happily,so he braced himself as he stuffed the food down his mouth.

He was soon sweating bullets from the forehead, and he soon chuggedtwo glasses of water.

Lulu slid a peek at him just then. "You don't like spicy food?"

"Yeah."

"Sorry, I didn't know..."

“It's fine," Zachary said. "I'll do anything for you."

Lulu smiled. “In that case, you should have more. Once you get used toit, you could come here more often with me."

Zachary smiled lovingly. "Yeah."

However, his throat was burning and he was rasping!

Lulu pretended not to notice and kept putting more food on his plate.“This is good too. Have some more."

Zachary ate everything she put on his plate, even taking off his jacketfrom the heat and distractedly draping it on the back of his chair.

His cheeks were flushed, and the sweat over his brow was the size ofpeas.

He was almost passing out from the spicy violence and Lulu had todrive him home.

As she helped him to his room, she told him, "You're still hurt, so youshouldn't bathe."

“I'm thirsty," Zachary rasped, wanting nothing but water right then.

“I'll get it for you."

As she poured some water into a glass, she also dropped a pill into it.Zachary, however, could not sense anything by then. All his medicalacumen as a doctor was gone and he felt like his whole body was onfire— a dialysis might not be out of the question!

Then, after he drank the glass of water from Lulu, he began to feeldrowsy!

Lulu simply sat by his bed, watching and waiting.

Once she ensured that he was sleeping like a log, she quietly left thehouse, intending to look for Ricky, only to replace Ricky waiting for her rightoutside!
