Chapter 391: Gloomy, Always Trying to pry a hole in the wall
uo Ningxi glanced at her phone in the fading light, she couldn't say she wasn't angry. Li Botong had said he would catch the murderer and kept her under arrest, but things had been fine for ages! Who...Luo Ningxi returned to her workstation and glanced at the thick pile of documents for the Nanjiao project on her desk, feeling a little hesitant.
Yu Chengnan is currently in the hospital due to an injury and is unable to take charge of the project. It's likely that Nanshao also stopped because of this.
"Ding dong —"
A jarring phone ringtone shattered the silence.
Luo Ningxi looked at the three words "Yu Chengnan" on her phone screen and pressed the answer button.
A weak and gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hey, XiXi, are you busy"
Luo Ningxi heard the weak voice from the phone, and the guilt in her heart was slightly magnified. She had to speak softly, "I'm at work, what's wrong"
Since the Yu family already knows that Yu Chengnan is injured, they will naturally arrange for someone to take care of his daily life. Luo Ningxi doesn't intend to get involved in this trouble either.
Yu Chengnan looked deeply into her eyes, "Last night I had a dream. I dreamed that when we were in college, I had a fever and you brought me a bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean meat. It was the most delicious congee I've ever eaten."
Yu Chengnan's words were full of subtext, and Luo Ningxi's sealed memories surged back.
When two people are first in love, they are almost inseparable.
As soon as he fell ill, she buzzed around like a headless fly, even personally cooking congee to send over to him...
But now Lu Ningxi didn't have any of that kind of mind at all.
"I don't remember, it was probably just the most ordinary porridge from a breakfast stall near school."
Listening to Luo Ningxi's lukewarm words, Yu Chengnan didn't show any disappointment. Instead, he said, "I'm not very mobile. Could you come and see me again when you have time"
"Didn't your aunt get you a nurse" Loning Xi asked subconsciously.
Yu Chengnan explained, "Right now, both home and the company are in disarray. Many projects have been put on hold, there's simply no time to spare for me..."
Hearing Yu Chengnan's sincere tone, Luo Ningxi clenched her phone. Thinking of how Yu Chengnan had bravely rushed in front of her and confronted the thugs that day, she felt guilty and compromised out of it.
"Okay, I'll look for it when I have time and send it to you."
"Great!"
Yu Chengnan hung up the phone. Sunlight streamed in, bathing his handsome face, but a chillingly thin smile played on his lips.
Xi Xi, you are destined to be mine, and only mine.
……
The next day, which was a weekend, Lu Ningxi prepared some congee and light dishes to visit Yu Chengnan.
When she arrived at the hospital, Yu Chengnan had just finished changing his medicine.
His face was still a little pale, "Xixi, you're here."
Luo Ningxi put the thermos bag on the bedside table and asked, "How are you feeling today Does your wound still hurt"
"I'm feeling much better now. The nurse said my wound is healing well and I should be able to go home soon. Thanks for taking care of me, Xixi. I appreciate you coming to visit on your day off."
Although he said it was troublesome, Yu Chengnan's lips couldn't help but curl into a smile.
Lu Ningxi wasn't being polite either, "If you don't want to cause trouble, just get discharged quickly. There are still a lot of things going on at the company, and I have to go back to work overtime later."
As soon as Lu Ningxi mentioned the company, Yu Chengnan's eyes flickered slightly, followed by a sigh. "It's my fault for dragging you into this. I'll be discharged as soon as possible and ensure the project goes smoothly."
"It's my fault for dragging you into this. If I hadn't been injured saving me, you'd still be the young master of Yu Corporation. How could you have ended up like this, with even your projects being blocked by the board of directors"
Yu Chengnan wanted to say something more, but suddenly clutched his chest and coughed violently several times.
Luo Ningxi was startled and hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it to Yu Chengnan.
Yu Chengnan looked at Luo Ningxi solemnly, "Never say that you're dragging me down, and never apologize to me. I do anything for you with pleasure."
Luo Ningxi bumped into Yu Chengnan's gaze, some words tacitly unspoken, instead shifting the topic. She transferred the congee from the thermos to a bowl and placed it in front of Yu Chengnan.
Yu Chengnan's Adam's apple moved, reaching out to pick up the bowl and chopsticks, just as he was about to drink the porridge, he accidentally tugged at the wound, and gasped in pain.
"What's wrong with you" Luo Ningxi looked at his pale face and asked with concern.
"It's alright, it just hurts a little where the wound is. I'll have the doctor come and change the dressing again later." Yu Chengnan spoke very calmly, then picked up his bowl and chopsticks to continue eating porridge.
Luningxi watched his every move, her face growing uglier with each twitch. Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead as she hurriedly said, "Let me feed you"
Yu Chengnan, “In that case… wouldn’t that be inconvenient for you”
"It's just feeding you a meal, there's nothing inconvenient about it," Luo Ningxi said, and proactively picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful, blew it slightly cool, and brought it to Yu Chengnan's mouth.
Yu Chengnan looked at the congee sent by Lu Ningxi, a trace of unnoticeable depth flashing in his eyes.
He swallowed the congee in one gulp and sincerely exclaimed, "It tastes really good."
Luo Ningxi just wanted to finish feeding the meal quickly and didn't respond.
"Drip drip."
Just then, the phone rang at the most inopportune moment.
Luo Ningxi gestured to Yu Chengnan and then got up to leave the ward to answer the phone.
Yu Chengnan looked at Lu Ningxi's back in the corridor. The eyes that were just gentle and profound instantly turned cold.
He saw that the caller ID for Lu Ningxi's just-made call was "husband".
Yu Chengnan glanced at the thermos on the side, quickly picked up his phone and took a photo, posting it to his Moments.ter touches to his already cold and arrogant face.Lu Ningxi choked up, hating herself for not being able to say anything. "This is my child, he grew in my womb. If you don't care, just go crazy.""Toug...
