I'll Compensate You With My Life, Okay?

After his gaze shifted, he noticed that she wasn't wearing socks and her fair feet were exposed. Du Xi frowned and took off his short-sleeved shirt to wrap around her feet. "The temperature difference between morning and night is big, so remember to wear socks."

Jiang Ju nodded blankly. All her attention was on the big teddy bear on the coffee table. In the huge packaging, a brown bear was compressed into a ball, but it was almost as tall as her before she even opened it. She wondered how big it would be when she opened it.

"My attitude wasn't good just now. Is this enough compensation to you?" Jiang Ju wasn't paying attention to his words. She turned around, her eyes sparkling, and her tone was very excited as she asked,"You bought this for me, right? Are you really going to give it to me?" He didn't expect the young lady he couldn't coax just now to be won over so easily by a teddy bear. Du Xi didn't know if it was because she was easy to satisfy or that he wasn't capable enough. He actually couldn't even compare to a teddy bear. He leaned against the sofa and supported his head with his hand as he chuckled in exasperation.

He was a living person, but her mind was preoccupied with that doll that couldn't breathe or speak. Du Xi felt a little embarrassed.

Jiang Ju got up slightly and placed the doll between the two of them. Then, she carefully tore open the packaging. After the compressed teddy bear came into contact with the air, it gradually returned to its original appearance. Soon, a brown bear more than 1.8 meters tall appeared in front of her. Because its limbs were too long, it couldn't completely fit on the sofa. The lower half of the teddy bear's body was still hanging on the ground.

Jiang Ju's eyes flickered with surprise. With just one look, Du Xi could tell how happy she was now. While hugging the cute teddy bear, Jiang Ju felt that most of the negative emotions in her heart had dissipated. She looked at Du Xi with a smile. "Thank you. I like this gift very much."

"It's just a teddy bear. Is there a need to be so happy?" Du Xi looked at her with a smile. He was happy too, but he still teased, "You're so easy to coax."

Jiang Ju pouted and revealed a girlish expression for the first time. "You're already a man in your thirties. What do you know?"

"Hey, I'm gonna spank you," Du Xi deliberately lowered his voice and said. Then, he reached out and pulled the teddy bear to the side. "Hurry up and sleep. It's already so late. This bear can't run, so you can play with it tomorrow."

After recovering from her illness, Jiang Ju was still a little flushed, so she couldn't stay up late. It wasn't easy for her fever to subside. Seeing that the child had recovered a little, he didn't want to see her listless and weak appearance again.

At the mention of sleep, Jiang Ju thought of her glassless window, and the joy of receiving the gift instantly dissipated. She bit her lip and said hesitantly, "Do you know how to repair windows?" It didn't cost much to change the glass of a window, but the most expensive thing now was labor and transportation.

If he didn't know how to do it, she could only use her remaining living expenses and hire someone to repair it.

Du Xi stood up and picked up the teddy bear as he said, "Of course I know how to. There's nothing in this world that I can't do. Even if you want a castle, I can let you stay in it next week. Do you believe me?"

He was in the renovation industry to begin with, so this wasn't a problem. The two of them had known each other for so long, so why was this little girl still unaware? "From now on, as long as I'm around, you can look for me directly if anything in your family is broken. If it can't be repaired, I'll compensate you with my life, okay?"

Du Xi carried the child onto the sofa into the second bedroom and laid her bedding. Then, he said to her, "Sleep early. I'll be outside, so there's no need to be afraid."

Jiang Ju nodded dazedly, but didn't know how he had guessed that she was afraid. Du Xi watched as she got into bed and couldn't help but reach out to caress her hair. "Be good."

After walking out of the second bedroom, Du Xi closed the door. However, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. As long as the child had something on her mind, it would be written all over her face. It wasn't that he didn't have eyes, so how could he not understand? After working at the construction site for an entire day and taking care of her for the entire night, Du Xi was really a little sleepy.

After lying on the sofa, he closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep. A little more than two hours later, the morning sunlight shone in through the window. After Du Xi opened his eyes, he looked at his phone and saw that it was only five o'clock. The sky brightened early in the summer. If it was winter, it would still be dark outside.

After going to the bathroom to wash his face, he walked out. When he returned, he had a brand new glass window on his shoulder and some steaming wontons in his hand.
