Chapter 312: She Boldly Ran Away, He Collapsed

The mom and Uncle Li were talking when she noticed from the corner of her eye that Lu Xiao had returned, and she quickly walked over with a gentle smile.

"Captain Lu, you must be tired. How is Zha Xi's mother doing?"

She asked with concern.

Lu Xiao's body was still a bit stiff as he stood there, his lips slightly pursed, and he nodded.

However, it seemed like a heavy thought struck him momentarily, as his brows furrowed slightly.

"That's great to hear. Come, have some food. I've kept some hot buns and beef tripe soup for you."

The mom spoke and was about to head towards the kitchen.

However, Lu Xiao suddenly called out to her from behind.

"Mom, wait—!"

The mom turned around, surprised, and asked, "What is it, Captain Lu?"

Lu Xiao involuntarily clenched his hands, his chest heaving deeply.

When he spoke again, he looked at her earnestly and asked, "Mom, what did you say just now about how pregnant women act...?"

At his words, the mom was momentarily startled.
