Chapter 718: Chapter 718: Heâs Not Feeling Well Chapter 718: Chapter 718: Heâs Not Feeling Well Chi Enenâs breath halted, and she suddenly looked up, meeting the manâs scorching gaze with incredible accuracy in the darkness, âWhat about eating?â
âIâll feed you!â
âI still need to chew, donât I?â
Without pausing for even a second, Li Beijue followed up, âIf you want, I can chew it up and feed you.â
She might as well have said nothing.
âThen⦠breathing? Will you breathe for me?â
In the darkness, the manâs voice came through, teeth gritted with frustration, and the next second, her lips were sealed in a punishing kiss that drained all the oxygen from her lungs before he let her go, âChi Enen, it seems youâre still in good spirits. Try talking back to me again!â
If she talked back to him again, he would leave that little mouth of hers gasping for air!
He spoke too forcefully, pulling at his stomach, and groaned softly, turning over, âIâm going to take a bath.â
Although his groan was soft, desperately trying to hide it from being heard, Chi Enen still picked up on it.
She immediately sat up and turned on the light.
Only then did she notice that the tall manâs handsome face was pale, his forehead dotted with fine beads of sweat. She quickly threw on some clothes and sat up, âWait, are you feeling unwell somewhere?â
She had asked him if he was feeling unwell somewhere earlier that evening, but he had dodged the question. Now his complexion was so obvious, she could almost be certain that he was not feeling well!
Li Beijue turned his face away, avoiding her worried eyes, donned a bathrobe in an impatient manner, âIâm fine. Iâm going to bathe now.â
Chi Enen grabbed his wrist in one swift motion, too lazy to say much more, and reached out to touch his forehead.
Her hand met his skin, which was exquisitely smooth and slightly cool.
She realized then just how extraordinary Li Beijueâs skin was, so flawless that even from this close, she couldnât see his pores. As a woman, she truly didnât know how to describe such skin. God had really given this man the very best of everything, from his looks to his physique, even his skin was impeccable.
âItâs not hot, no fever.â She tested the temperature and murmured to herself as she lowered her gaze.
A hand suddenly appeared on his forehead, the kind of intrusion that wouldâve led him to throw any other woman out before she could even touch him.
But, this woman was Chi Enen.
He felt only a comforting sensation.
He squinted his falcon-like eyes and glanced over the little lady in front of him, muttering to herself with downcast eyes. A playful strand of hair slipped from her temple, conveniently shielding the contour of her face, drawing attention to her delicate nose and those long, curling eyelashes.
Chi Enenâs eyelashes were not exceptionally thick but each was long, natural and curled upward, outlining the shape of her eyes in an arch, just like crescent moons, especially comforting and familiar when she looked down.
His Adamâs Apple unconsciously bobbed, suppressing the heat that had again welled up inside him.
Brushing away the oblivious womanâs hand, his thin lips slightly parted, âI donât have a fever.â
âBut youâre uncomfortable,â Chi Enen insisted on her judgment, furrowing her eyebrows and then suddenly saying, âNo, the Hospital Emergency Department should still be open for patients, letâs go and have it checked out. Iâll change my clothes right away.â
She got to action without wasting a second, pulling open the wardrobe to grab clothes.
Li Beijue didnât want to reveal it at first, but seeing her like this, he had no choice but to clamp down on her wrist and stop her, compromising, âThereâs no need to go to the hospital, itâs just a stomachache.â
