Chapter 391: Gloomy, Always Picking at the Cracks
y signal, but Lu Yi still kept holding the phone to his ear, motionless for quite some time.Did he hear that rightQin Fei FanHe charges a six-figure fee per hour, and each case he takes on is worth hu...Luo Ningxi returned to her desk and looked at the thick pile of data on the Southern Suburb project. She couldn't help but hesitate.
Yu Chengnan is now injured and in the hospital, unable to be responsible for the project. Nanjiao probably also stopped it because of this.
Beep beep—
A jarring ringtone suddenly pierced 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 phone.
"Hey, Xixi, are you busy"
Luningxi heard the weak voice on the other end of the phone, and the guilt in her heart was magnified a little. She had to speak softly, "I'm at the company, what's wrong"
Since the Yu family already knew that Yu Chenan was injured, they would naturally arrange for someone to take care of his daily life. Luo Ningxi didn't intend to get involved in this trouble either.
Yu Chengnan looked at her with tenderness, "Last night, I had a dream. I dreamed that when we were in university, I had a fever, and you brought me a bowl of preserved egg lean porridge. It was the most delicious porridge I've ever tasted."
The subtext in Yu Chengnan's words was obvious, and Lu Ningxi's sealed memories surged back.
When two people are first in love, they are almost inseparable.
When he fell ill, she was like a headless fly, rushing around and even cooked porridge to deliver to him...
But now Lu Ningxi didn't have that kind of mind at all.
“I don’t remember, it was probably the most ordinary porridge at a breakfast stall near school.”
Hearing Luo Ningxi's lukewarm words, Yu Chengnan didn't feel discouraged at all, but said, "I'm not very mobile. Could you come see me again when you have time"
"Didn't your aunt hire a nurse for you" Loningxi asked instinctively.
Yu Chengnan explained, “Now both at home and the company are in disarray. Many projects have been put on hold, there's simply no time to manage…”
Listening to Yu Chengnan's earnest tone, Luo Ningxi clenched her phone. Thinking of how Yu Chengnan had bravely rushed to her face and confronted the hooligans that day, out of guilt, she compromised.
"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, it was the weekend. Luo Ningxi prepared porridge and light dishes to visit Yu Chengnan.
When she arrived at the hospital, Yu Chengnan had just finished changing his medicine.
He was still a bit pale, "Xixi, you're here."
Luo Ningxi placed 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 discharged soon. Thank you for taking care of me, Xixi. It means a lot that you even visited me on your day off."
Although he said it was troublesome, Yu Chengnan's lips couldn't help but curl up.
Luo Ningxi wasn't polite either. "If I'm not causing any trouble, I'll check out of the hospital as soon as possible. There are still a bunch of things to deal with at the company, and I have to go back to work overtime later."
As soon as Luo Ningxi mentioned the company, Yu Chengnan's eyes flickered, then he sighed, "It's my fault for dragging you into this. I'll get discharged as soon as possible and ensure the project progresses smoothly."
"It's my fault for dragging you into this. If I hadn't been saved and gotten hurt, you would still be the young master of Yù Shi Group. How could you have become like this, with even your proposed projects being blocked by the board"
Yu Chengnan wanted to say something else, but suddenly covered his chest and coughed violently.
Luningxi was startled and hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it to Yu Chengnan.
Yu Chengnan looked at Luo Ningxi solemnly, "Never say you're burdened by me, and never apologize to me. I do anything for you willingly."
Lu Ningxi bumped into Yu Chengnan's gaze, some words tacitly unspoken, instead shifting the topic. She poured the congee from the thermos and placed it in front of Yu Chengnan.
Yu Chengnan's Adam's apple moved, reaching for his bowl and chopsticks. Just as he was about to take a sip of porridge, he accidentally tugged at his wound, drawing in a sharp gasp of pain.
"What's wrong with you" Luo Ningxi looked at his pale face and asked concernedly.
"It's fine, it just aches a little. I'll ask the doctor to change my dressing later." Yu Chengnan said calmly, then picked up his bowl and chopsticks to continue eating congee.
Luo Ningxi watched him every move, her face becoming increasingly grim. Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead as she hurriedly said, "Let me feed you"
"This...won't it be inconvenient for you"
"It's just feeding someone, it's not inconvenient at all," Luo Ningxi said, then proactively took the spoon, scooped a spoonful, blew it slightly to cool it down, and brought it to Yu Chengnan's mouth.
Yu Chengnan looked at the congee sent by Luo Ningxi, a flicker of unnoticeable depth passing through his eyes.
He swallowed the congee in one gulp and sincerely exclaimed, "It tastes good."
Luo Ningxi just wanted to finish feeding the meal quickly and didn't respond.
"Beep."
Just then, the phone rang at an inopportune moment.
Luo Ningxi gestured to Yu Chengnan, then got up and walked out of the ward to answer the phone.
Yu Chengnan looked at Lu Ningxi's back in the corridor. The eyes that had just been gentle and profound instantly turned cold.
He saw that Loning Xi's incoming call had been noted as "Husband".
Yu Chengnan glanced at the thermos on the side, quickly picked up his phone and took a picture, sending it to his Moments.You like taking pictures, don't you Today, I'll let you take your fill!" Wang Yang walked up to Luo Ningxi and patted her face condescendingly, his face contorted in a menacing grin.He felt his dirty...
