Chapter 184: Should I go?

~7 min read 1,350 words

So that's what happened.

Li Jiaci let out two low chuckles.

He brought several dozen drivers to return the goods.

Anyone can tell it's got the air of wanting to wreck the place.

How could that boss not be scared?

As long as the money is refunded, that's all that matters.

Li Jiaci called Wang Lan over, had her collect the money, and set it aside as the final payment for future leather purchases.

Suddenly.

A phone ringtone rang.

Li Jiaci glanced at the caller and couldn't help but smile.

He answered the phone, smiling, and asked, "Does your wound still hurt?"

Li Yihu, standing to the side, made a silly, cheeky face.

Wang Lan squatted on the ground collecting money, having forgotten where she'd left off counting, and tilted her ear to listen to Li Jiaci's call.

On the phone.

Wang Yingna whispered, complaining, "It hurts, it's killing me; every time the nurse changes my dressing, I end up crying from the pain..."

After speaking, she sniffled twice.

Obviously, she had just changed her medicine.

The pain hadn't faded yet.

Li Jiaci adjusted his sitting posture and crossed his legs.

He could guess Wang Yingna's little scheme with just a pinch of two fingers.

All she wanted was for him to say a few comforting words.

Say something sweet, those lovey-dovey lines.

But the two brothers just stood there blatantly, especially Li Yihu, who looked at him with a gossipy, sneering expression.

Li Jiaci couldn't bring himself to say those mushy words.

"Cough…"

"Just bear with it a little!"

"It won't hurt in a couple days!"

Upon hearing those bland, unfeeling words.

Wang Yingna, on the other end of the phone, rolled her eyes wildly.

"You said you liked me just yesterday!"

"Only a day has passed and your feelings have already faded!"

"As expected, you can't believe what men say!"

"All that nonsense about your heart breaking when you saw me go into the operating room is a lie!"

"Now I'm crying from the pain and nobody cares!"

Li Jiaci listened to this tirade, anxiously scratching his head.

His woman lay in the hospital, crying from pain—how could he not feel heartbroken?

Of course he's heartbroken!

"Xiao Na, you've misunderstood me!"

Wang Yingna snorted, not waiting for Li Jiaci to explain further, and angrily hung up.

Li Jiaci jumped up in frustration.

Seeing this, Li Yihu teased, "Brother, is your wife mad at you?"

"No way!"

Li Jiaci slipped the phone into his pocket.

He picked up a thick ear-covering cap and put it on his head.

Li Yihu chuckled.

"And you still say it's not the case!"

"Where are you rushing off to in such a hurry?"

"If your wife really is angry, you'd better go coax her properly!"

"Take her little hand, then kiss her little lips…"

"Ouch!"

"Brother, why did you kick me?"

Li Jiaci kicked, putting an end to Li Yihu's joking.

If it weren't for those two bright bulbs just now, he'd have already cheered Wang Yingna up.

Li Jiaci gave them a disparaging glance, grabbed his car keys, and left.

After he left.

Li Yihu hobbled over to the sofa and snapped his fingers at Wang Lan.

"Our sister-in-law is formidable—one phone call and she's got the big brother worked up like this!"

Hearing that, Wang Lan puzzledly asked, "They haven't even exchanged a few words, so why did they suddenly fall out?"

Li Yihu affected a deep expression, stroking his chin stubble.

Then, squinting, he said, "I reckon our sister-in-law is complaining that the brother didn't go to the hospital to keep her company today; you know her temper—when it flares up, it's like a gas tank exploding."

If that's the case, I support sister-in-law losing her temper; she even blocked a knife for our brother—our brother doesn't even say he'll guard her bedside 24 hours, he should at least go show his face every day!

Wang Lan took the money while replying.

Hahaha, this time our brother is totally under her control!

Back when Li Qinglan was around, we never saw our brother so nervous about someone!

From now on we'll have a good show to watch!

Look how our brother is being henpecked into obedience!

……

Inside the hospital.

Wang Yingna lay on her side on the hospital bed; the pain from her wound made her shudder uncontrollably.

Little sis, still hurting?

Wang Zhen came back after finishing his meal, his face worried as he asked.

All we heard was Wang Yingna sniffle twice, turn her head to look at him, her eyes red, and say: 'It's not as painful as before; I'll grit my teeth and hold on, I'll be fine in a moment.'

There's nothing I can do to help with this; I can only worry!

If Li Jiaci were here right now, you might feel a bit better!

Or should I call you?

Wang Zhen pulled out his phone and asked.

Wang Yingna angrily shook her head.

I don't want to see him at all!

Wang Zhen froze.

Weren't these two hugging each other and crying their eyes out just yesterday?

Left and right, they kept saying 'I like you' and 'I love you'.

Hearing it gave him goosebumps all over.

That sickeningly lovey-dovey sight made his blood boil; he wished he could gouge out his eyes just to not see it.

Only a day has passed.

And they've already broken up?

Just as Wang Zhen was pondering...

The hospital room door was suddenly pushed open.

Immediately after, Li Jiaci's panting voice sounded at the doorway.

You really won't see me?

Then I'll leave?

Before Wang Zhen could even speak,

Suddenly Wang Yingna slapped him aside with a swipe.

Jiaci brother?!

You… how did you suddenly come over?

Wang Yingna asked in disbelief.

Li Jiaci placed the meal he had bought on the way on the table.

Then he pinched her cheek and said: 'You were sobbing on the phone; I didn't know what was wrong, I was anxious and sweating, so I rushed over to check on you, and also to let your brother go rest.'

As soon as he said that, Wang Yingna's angry expression vanished; she looked like a lovestruck female monkey, her eyes fixed on Li Jiaci gleaming.

What tasty thing did you buy for me?

Chicken soup, do you like it?

As long as it's something you bought for me, I like it!

Then I'll feed you.

Li Jiaci dragged a chair over and sat down.

He greeted Wang Zhen, who had been squeezed to the foot of the bed, saying: 'Brother, don't stand—find a place to sit!'

Thanks, bro!

Wang Zhen gritted his teeth.

Meanwhile, Wang Yingna lay on her side beside the bed, opened her mouth, and took a sip of the chicken soup Li Jiaci fed her.

She smiled as if she felt no pain at all.

They say a woman's mood changes faster than flipping a page.

Today, Wang Zhen finally got to see that from his little sister.

Alright, you two go ahead!

I'm leaving!

Wang Zhen said disdainfully.

At that moment, Wang Yingna shouted at him: 'Brother, don't rush off—leave the food you bought!'

Don't you already have chicken soup?

That's the chicken soup Jiaci brother bought for me—only enough for one person!

So what?

What is my Jiaci brother going to eat?

……

Wang Zhen really wanted to slam that lunchbox onto her head.

Give give give!

Take it take it!

Wang Zhen handed the lunch box to Li Jiaci.

Left with an impatient look.

Li Jiaci laughed and said, "Now Wang Zhen Ge definitely regrets it a lot!"

Regret what?

He always wanted us to be together, but now that we are together, his days are even worse than before!

Tch, then go find a wife to pamper him!

That's also true...

Jiaci Ge, from now on I'll pamper you!

Wang Yingna grabbed his hand and rubbed it on her own face.

Like a little cat acting cute.

Li Jiaci suddenly remembered Li Yihu's words.

Holding her little hand, kissing her little mouth...
