Li Beijueâs mood was no longer so radiant. He furrowed his brows, clearly displeased with the answer, âMake it faster.â
Si Chen really wanted to grab him by the collar and tell him that as a doctor, he wasnât part of some cult organization and didnât have superpowers! But he was not Chi Enen, daring enough to be presumptuous in front of Lord Li. He could only suppress a sigh and say, âItâs not possible to make it faster. If you want to speed up your recovery, you can only rest more and nourish your body with food. That might make it a tiny bit faster.â
âNourish with food?â
Understanding, he said, âI will discuss the dietary menu with Huo Yi in a moment.â
After speaking, he went out with Huo Yi to fetch the medication.
Chi Enen pulled down her clothes and hesitated before asking, âLi Beijue, when will you give Baby Chi back to me?â
Baby Chi again! Didnât this woman hear what Si Chen said? He was severely injured, and shouldnât she be concerned about him first!
His face tensed up, expressionless, he threw out the words, âThe teacher will call you.â
âThe teacher⦠you didnât pick up the baby, did you?â Chi Enen was surprised.
This time, Li Beijue didnât even want to acknowledge her, pretending he hadnât heard.
Right then, Huo Yi came back with the medication. He escorted them out of the hospital and they got back into the car.
Once in the car, Huo Yi turned around first and said, âMaster Jue, you have an international meeting at 3 p.m., and the Boss of Huanyu Group has booked time at 4:30 p.mâ¦â
He reeled off a full string of schedule arrangements before asking, âShould we postpone all of todayâs plans?â
âNo need,â Li Beijue had returned to his aloof and haughty demeanor, utterly unconcerned about the injuries on his body, and said indifferently, âEverything as usual.â
âBut Young Master Si said you need to rest moreâ¦â
âDoes he decide or do I?â
Huo Yi didnât try to persuade further, and respectfully apologized, âSorry, Master Jue, I was out of line.â
âHmm.â
The car slowly startedâ¦
Just as Chi Enen was about to try and persuade him as well, she noticed the man beside her leaning back against the sofa, wearily closing his eyes to rest.
She swallowed the comforting words she was ready to say, keeping them to herself.
Soon.
The car stopped at the doorway to her community, and Li Beijue seemed to have fallen asleep. Chi Enen carefully opened the car door, trying her best not to disturb the person inside. She made a goodbye gesture to Huo Yi and watched the nanny car drive off into the distanceâ¦
Once the car was completely out of sight, her mobile phone began to ring.
Chi Enen took out her phone and glanced at the incoming number. It was Teacher Liu from Baby Chiâs kindergarten. She immediately answered the phone, her voice trembling with nervousness, âHello?â
âWoman, what are you doing? Why is your voice trembling like that?â
That milky voice- if it wasnât Baby Chi, who else could it be?
Chi Enen gripped the phone tightly, her eyes nearly reddening with emotion, âBaby, where are you?â
On the other end of the phone, Baby Chiâs voice sounded puzzled and somewhat incredulous, âAt the kindergarten, woman. Have you become confused from work? You forgot, huh? Yesterday, Teacher Liu even called you, telling you weâd be going on a day trip and even informed you about the time weâd be back. Didnât you agree readily, saying you would come to pick me up?â
What day trip, what phone call, what time to return to the kindergarten⦠Chi Enen knew nothing about any of it, but she knew for sure that all of this must have been arranged by Li Beijue.
With his power, such a small maneuver would be effortless.
Nevertheless, Chi Enen still breathed a sigh of relief, silently grateful that Li Beijue hadnât forcefully taken Baby Chi away. Instead, he chose such a roundabout way to handle the situation.
Even though, such a method was enough to cause her a misunderstanding, leaving her at a loss and forcing her to seriously consider their relationship⦠But thankfully⦠Baby Chi was well protected..
