At the banquet, Xia Lu was wearing high heels and felt soreness in her legs and pain in her feet after standing only briefly. She couldn't help but reach out and hold onto Zhou Mingchen's arm.
"What's wrong?"
"I want to rest for a bit."
Zhou Mingchen looked around and instructed, "Don't go too far." Ever since the last incident, even in such crowded events, he did not want her out of his sight.
Xia Lu nodded, took a drink to the bar area. Although there weren't many people here, it wasn't completely deserted, which meant it wasn't an ideal place for anyone wanting to harm her.
She sipped the juice while gently massaging her sore calves. It seemed there was reason in saying that pregnant women should avoid high heels. The issue wasn't about the risk of falling and affecting the baby, but that she could barely stand it anymore. She wouldn't have worn them if it weren't necessary.
