"I donât recommend working for too long, because long hours arenât good for your recovery."
With every word the doctor said, Li Beijueâs eyebrows furrowed a bit more.
By the time he finished, Li Beijueâs eyebrows could practically crush a fly.
Under Li Beijueâs intense gaze, sweat broke out on the doctorâs forehead as he anxiously replayed his words to see if heâd said something wrong.
Chi Enen tried to lighten the mood at this moment, "I also think itâs best for you not to work and to rest for a period of time first."
"Yes, adequate rest is actually more conducive to recovery, maybe Young Master Liâs wound will scab over in seven or eight days," the doctor immediately chimed in.
It was unclear whether Li Beijue was listening, but he relaxed his furrowed eyebrows slightly and said, "Huo Yi, see them out."
"Yes, Master Jue." The person next to him immediately said, "Doctor, letâs go out."
The doctor was more than eager to leave and promptly responded, "Alright, alright."
Huo Yi led the way in front, and he followed anxiously out like his eyebrows were on fire.
Once outside, he even closed the ward door smoothly.
The man lying on the sickbed shifted as if he wanted to sit up.
Chi Enen noticed and immediately stepped forward, "Li Beijue, what are you doing? Donât move around. Just tell me if you want anything."
The worry and anxiety were all over her face, and under the effect of the doctorâs words, Li Beijue, who had felt somewhat irritated, suddenly felt much better. With a deep and chiseled look, his thin lips naturally gave orders, "Prop a pillow for me, I want to sit up."
Chi Enen couldnât handle him and did as he said, propping a pillow behind him and letting him lean against the sickbed at a 45-degree angle.
She had barely caught her breath when the man beside her naturally ordered, "Peel me an apple, I want to eat it!"
"You just woke up, itâs best not to eat cold and hard things. If youâre hungry, Iâll ask Butler Huo to bring you some white porridge."
"Annoying!" He seemed to have locked horns with Chi Enen, insisting, "I donât want white porridge, I just want you to peel me an apple!"
That attitude involuntarily reminded Chi Enen of Bae Chi.
Every time Bae Chi threw a tantrum or was upset, he used this exact tone.
Her past interactions with Bae Chi taught her that reasoning wouldnât work in this situation. The best solution was to go along with their wishes.
Her gaze fell on the bandages on the manâs head and his slightly pale thin lips, and her heart softened. She took a piece of fruit that Huo Yi had bought from the bedside, took out a small knife, sat down next to him, and began peeling.
As she peeled, the man beside her kept on directing, "Chi Enen, donât peel the skin too thick, and donât peel it too thin. Also, I like it when thereâs a bit of unpeeled skin left."
"Donât break the peel, make it look nice."
"By the way, did you wash your hands?"
"There, you havenât cleaned that spot. Didnât I tell you? I donât eat apples with leftover skin!"
Chi Enen went back to clean the spot he mentioned.
Picking up from where she left off, she accidentally broke the apple peel.
Sure enough, the person on the sickbed immediately began to criticize, "Chi Enen, are you a pig? Donât break the peel, peel another one!"
She took a deep breath, finally unable to hold back, and looked up, "Youâre so noisy, can you be quiet for a bit!"
