Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 949
After the three vicious bites, Serenity took advantage of the time he was in pain to forcefully break out of his embrace and got up
to bring over the vial of medicine to administer the injection. She handed it to him, her pretty face threatening, “Take it!”
Zachary’s face and lips had been bitten by her and he was now in pain, but he still had to take the vial of medicine. He accepted
the vial as his dark eyes looked at her.
“Don’t pretend to be so pitiful. I won’t give in.”
Zachary chuckled. She was prickly on the outside but a softie on the inside.
He looked at her as he took the jab.
It was very painful, but with her watching him, he felt that it was not painful at all anymore and even felt good.
Very quickly, Zachary completed the jab.
Once he was done, Serenity took the emptied syringe from him and took it into the kitchen to dispose of properly.
The moment his wife left, Zachary immediately started searching everywhere for something in the living area.
It was so painful!
He wanted to have some painkillers to ease the pain.
“What are you looking for?” Serenity came out and asked when she saw him. searching for something.
Zachary quickly took off his wedding ring and placed it under the coffee table, replying, “I dropped my wedding ring, so I’m
looking for it.
“I found it! It was under the coffee table.”
He picked up the ring and stood straight, putting his ring back onto his ring finger matter–of–factly.
Serenity did not say anything and he could not tell if she bought the act.
“Go to sleep early,” Serenity said and returned to her room.

Zachary made a sound in acknowledgment and once she entered her room and closed the door, he crept into the kitchen like a
thief. He could not find any ibuprofen but there was some cough syrup. He took a small spoon, opened the bottle, and poured a
little cough syrup onto the spoon and then in his mouth it went.
The rush of relief chased away the pain.
Why were needles so painful?!
He really hated needles.
That doctor was so mean–did not even ask what he felt and immediately prescribed injections.
Zachary felt a little better after having some cough syrup.
After washing the spoon and putting it back where it belonged, he turned to walk out of the kitchen. When he did, he saw his
esteemed wife leaning against the doorway to the kitchen, her hands stuffed in her pockets as she just looked at him.
Zachary was stunned for a moment but said honestly, “The injection‘ was too painful, so I had some cough syrup for pain relief.”
“The vials aren’t enough. Once you’re done, I’ll get the doctor to prescribe you a few more and let you take them for a while
longer to help your stomach recover.”
Zachary was silent.
After Serenity finished saying that, she took her hands out of her pockets and turned to leave.
“Seren.”
Zachary followed her. “Seren, the stomach recovers based on what I eat. As long as I have three proper meals a day and eat
foods that are gentle on the stomach, I can slowly recover even if I don’t take medication for it.”
“I don’t have the time to help you recover like that.”
“Yes, yes. My wife is very busy.”
“What are you following me for?”
“Your room is my room too. I’ll sleep wherever you sleep.”

Zachary expressed his rogue side to the fullest and after closing the door, he forcibly embraced Serenity and lowered his head,
seeking her lips to first obtain the benefits he as her husband was entitled to.
It was a shame that she was having her period and they could not make babies.
Though it was enough to spend the night with her in her room.
No matter how dark Serenity’s expression got, Zachary refused to leave her room. If
she got mad, he would clutch his stomach and cry, “It hurts! It hurts so badly!” Then, his esteemed wife would no longer try to
chase him out, which allowed him to successfully stay by her side and go to sleep with her in his arms.
Serenity did not say she forgave Zachary, but her every word and action revealed that she was no longer angry.
The next day, when Zachary woke up, Serenity had already made breakfast for him. His was pumpkin oat porridge.
