Chapter 1086: Can you use your brain?
The Affiliated Hospital of the Medical University.
Li Li Wanchang didn't wake up until the evening.
In the corridor, Li Xiao sat on a chair, head buried in silence, his whole person permeated with a dejected atmosphere, isolating everything around him.
Mrs. Li asked the doctor nervously: "Doctor, is my husband okay?"
"Currently, the patient needs rest and cannot be angered again," the doctor sighed helplessly: "You family members must pay attention at all times. You cannot stimulate him. He only just recovered from the last fainting spell, and now he has a heart attack. This kind of situation is mostly fierce; it's not every time he's this lucky."
"Yes, yes, we will pay more attention." Mrs. Li could only nod repeatedly.
When the doctor turned and left, she turned back to look at her son. Seeing him sitting there without saying a word, not even caring about his father's situation, Mrs. Li's eyes darkened.
"Xiao Zai, you heard what the doctor just said. You can't make your father angry again; his body can't take it."
Li Xiao looked up upon hearing this, his brows cold but unable to hide his fatigue: "Then I won't go in. If he sees me, he'll definitely get angry again. The doctor said he can't be stimulated anymore, his body can't take it."
Mrs. Li looked at her son, her mood very complicated, both angry at the trouble caused by him and feeling sorry for the son who had to experience all this.
Public opinion could destroy a person or even an enterprise. Now that the engagement matter had become a city-wide sensation, they could do nothing but suffer it in vain.
"You go back first. I'll go in to take care of your father. You can come back when he's not angry anymore."
As soon as Mrs. Li finished speaking, Li Xiao stood up quickly and walked toward the elevator without a hint of hesitation.
Compared to his father's health, he wasn't much better off himself.
In order to marry Qiu Qiu Keying, he had acted for nearly two years. Now that he had finally shed his disguise, he only felt physically and mentally exhausted.
Mrs. Li watched her son leave, composed her expression outside the ward, and pushed the door open gently.
On the hospital bed, Li Li Wanchang was half-leaning on the pillow. He looked up subconsciously when he heard the door open.
Seeing only his wife, he asked coldly: "Where's Li Xiao?"
"I told him to go back first," Mrs. Li said truthfully, "You're angry right now, I'm afraid you'll get angry again if you see him. The doctor said you can't be stimulated anymore, your body can't take it."
Li Li Wanchang didn't get angry, only snorting coldly: "What's the use of being angry? Things have reached this point, what's the use even if I beat him to death?"
"Oh, no matter what, he's still your son," Mrs. Li said with a worried face, helplessly: "Qiqi took the initiative to stick to him, and he made a mistake in a moment of weakness. Who would have thought it would turn out like this?"
"Qiqi hid it from everyone and did things so thoroughly, you can't blame our son entirely, right?"
Mentioning Lin Lin Biqi, Li Li Wanchang felt another burst of anger.
"This Qiqi is not simple," he said with a cold face: "She chose to appear when Li Xiao was getting engaged, holding the child. Her purpose is obvious."
Mrs. Li also hated Lin Lin Biqi to the bone now, because she was also the one who had been played.
"She was so well-behaved when she was young. Who knew how she became like this now? Even I was deceived."
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and Mrs. Li took out her phone directly: "I have to ask the Lin family for an explanation. I don't believe the Lin family didn't know about Qiqi's pregnancy and giving birth."
Seeing this, Li Li Wanchang glared, sternly scolding: "Put the phone down! Do you think it's not chaotic enough?"
"I..." Mrs. Li opened her mouth, thought of what the doctor said about not letting him get angry, and finally swallowed her words, putting the phone down.
Li Li Wanchang sighed: "What's the use of finding the Lin family now? If the child is Li Xiao's, then it's useless for us to find anyone!"
Mrs. Li sat by the bed, asking helplessly: "Then what should we do now?"
Li Li Wanchang frowned and was silent for a moment before speaking slowly: "Didn't she leave a pacifier? You take Li Xiao tomorrow to do a test and see if this child is really the flesh and blood of our Li family."
"Huh?" Mrs. Li was shocked: "Are you really going to let our son do a test with this child?"
"Of course we have to do it!" Li Li Wanchang said firmly: "It must be done! Since the matter started because of a child, we must first figure out the true identity of this child."
"I'm afraid Xiao Zai won't be willing," Mrs. Li pouted. She still knew her son; at this juncture, her son definitely wouldn't be willing.
Li Li Wanchang looked at his wife with the eyes of looking at an idiot, truly feeling she was stupid to the extreme.
"Does it matter if he wants to go? The child has a pacifier, can't you secretly
"Oh, right." Mrs. Li blinked in a daze, then looked at Li Li Wanchang with a grievance: "Why are you yelling? So many things have happened, my brain hasn't been able to keep up for a long time."
Li Li Wanchang sighed; he should have gotten used to his wife's personality long ago.
Feeling a vein at his temple throbbing incessantly, he rubbed his brow wearily, his tone finally softening: "You go back too, go tomorrow, don't delay it."
Mrs. Li stood up. She stared at Li Li Wanchang, hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Husband, do you think that child... is our grandson?"
Li Li Wanchang looked up at his wife. Their eyes met, but neither spoke the thoughts in their hearts.
Returning home, there were no traces of Li Xiao having been back at the entrance.
Mrs. Li changed her shoes and entered the house: "Xiao Zai? Xiao Zai?"
The son really didn't seem to be home. Mrs. Li's eyes lit up, thinking to herself that this was a good opportunity.
She snuck into Li Xiao's room and secretly took away his toothbrush.
The next day, as Mrs. Li was sitting in the dining room eating breakfast, she saw her son walking down from upstairs with an expressionless face.
She pretended to be nonchalant, looked at her son, and asked casually: "Where did you go last night? What time did you get back?"
Li Xiao walked up to his mother, stared straight at her, and extended his hand.
Mrs. Li stared blankly at the hand her son had extended in front of her, then looked at her expressionless son, and blinked in confusion.
"What are you doing?"
"Give it to me," Li Xiao said calmly.
"Give you what?"
"The toothbrush!" Li Xiao's voice rose by three degrees: "My toothbrush!"
Mrs. Li: "..."
Li Xiao just kept his hand extended, looking at his mother.
Mrs. Li knew she had messed things up again and could only bite the bullet and ramble: "Why are you asking me for your toothbrush? Can't find it? Then just buy a new one, food delivery is very fast."
"Mom!" Li Xiao glared: "Give me the toothbrush! After I brush my teeth, I'll go do the test with you, okay?"
Mrs. Li's expression froze. Coming to her senses, she quickly stood up: "I'll go get it for you. I wrapped the brush head in paper, it's not dirty."
Seeing this, Li Xiao curled his lips and sighed impatiently.
