Chapter 533: Chapter 533: Li Beijue Also Has His Weaknesses
Li Beijue moved another inch, âLike this?â
âIt dropped again, you need to move it up a little bitâ¦â
The veins on Li Beijueâs forehead throbbed, and a wave of irrepressible irritation surged in his heart. But recalling what she just said, that a woman should avoid contact with water during her convalescence post-childbirth, he forcefully suppressed the irritation. With patience, he moved it up a bit more, ââ¦Like this?â
The lecturer was not blind, noticed his increasingly darkening face and felt the chill in the surrounding air.
Although Li Beijueâs posture was not 100% standard, she didnât dare to correct him at this time and automatically overlooked the minor flaw, âRight, thatâs it!â
Li Beijueâs tense jaw relaxed a bit, and his falcon-like eyes glanced over at Chi Enen with a hint of self-satisfaction.
Chi Enen caught his look and couldnât help but laugh silently.
He couldnât still be remembering that she was too busy taking notes to respond to his earlier comment about his good memory, could he?
Li Beijue did remember!
He vividly remembered that when he had told this woman there was no need for her to take notes, that he could remember everything after hearing it once, she had ignored his words, frantically typing on her mobile phone, and had even given him a doubting look!
It made him feel like gouging her eyes out!
Dammit, it was just bathing a baby, what was so difficult about that, he was going to learn and show her!
âOkay, now letâs practice bathing it. Iâve gone through the steps before, sir, do you remember them?â The lecturer, unaware of the exchange of looks between the two, asked hopefully.
âFirst lay down a large bath towel, then test the water temperature, wash its head next, wrap it up after drying, and then give it a bath,â he recited methodically.
The lecturer sighed with relief and nodded, âYes, thatâs the sequence, sir, you try it.â As long as the sequence was remembered, generally, there wouldnât be any major issues.
But she overlooked the fact that the man in front of her was not your average manâall procedures before the actual bathing were performed almost perfectly by him. But once it came to washing the babyâs head, it became an indescribable struggleâ¦
âNo, sir, you canât hold the baby and lower its head like that. An infantâs brain is in the initial stages of development, doing so might lead to cerebral congestion and could cause serious trouble.â
âSir, youâre holding the babyâs head too high; it could get water in the babyâs eyes. Just keep it level, thatâll be fine.â
âYou donât need so much body wash; too much will create an excess of bubbles, and if the bubbles accidentally block the babyâs nose and mouth, it could lead to suffocation and death.â
âDuring bathing, we need to be as gentle as possible; youâre being too forceful, sir.â
âSirâ¦â
âNot like thatâ¦â
âThis isnât right eitherâ¦â
As Chi Enen sat on the side, she felt exhausted just watching the lecturer.
Li Beijue remembered all the steps that she had explained, including how to hold a child and where to place his hands, but when it came to actually doing it, he made mistakes one after another.
The mistakes were not big ones, but all had to do with the nuances of touch.
Chi Enen understood, considering this man had always had everything handed to him, achieving top marks in his work skills but scoring zero in domestic life skills.
Beyond that, from a young age, he had been educated in his familyâs military-style education and was himself a soldier. A big man, he tended to be rather forceful in his actions and found it difficult to properly control his strength.
Yet, an infant is very fragile and must be handled with utmost care. It was like asking someone who pilots an airplane to maneuver a childâs toy plane, overly cautious and restrained.
