Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Endure
Beichen Rui’s cold gaze swept over, and Ye Xinluo imdiately didn’t dare to laugh.
She continued searching for a while, but still couldn’t find what she was looking for.
"Damn it." Beichen Rui cursed under his breath.
Ye Xinluo watched for a while.
It seed like he was searching for sothing.
"What are you looking for?" After thinking about it, she decided to ask directly.
"The dicine box." Beichen Rui answered irritably.
This woman is really unusually dumb, absolutely dumb as a post. Can’t she see I’m looking for the dicine box?
Isn’t it obvious? How can she not see?
"It’s right here." Ye Xinluo pointed under the coffee table.
Beichen Rui glanced in the direction she pointed. Sure enough, the dicine box was neatly placed there.
Damn it!
How did I not see such a big dicine box?
He strode over, face darkened, grabbed the dicine box, and returned to sit by the sofa.
He dumped all the dicine from the box onto the sofa.
Ye Xinluo stared at the pile of dicine in front of her, sowhat dazed. What’s gotten into the CEO today? Acting so strange.
Beichen Rui rummaged for a while, and just when he was about to lose patience, he finally found what he needed.
Then he grabbed Ye Xinluo’s arm, squeezed a bit of ointnt, and applied it to her arm.
"CEO, let
do it myself." She hadn’t expected him to apply the dicine for her and wanted to pull her hand back.
The usually aloof CEO actually lowered himself to apply dicine for her. If Shanshan knew about this, she’d be shocked speechless.
"Shut up." Beichen Rui snapped coldly, continuing to apply the ointnt.
It was his first ti applying dicine for soone, and this damned woman wasn’t grateful at all.
Ye Xinluo was so startled by his shout that she imdiately shut her mouth. Yelling, snorting, loud voice—big deal.
She rolled her eyes and turned her head away, ignoring him.
It was Beichen Rui’s first ti applying dicine to soone, so he couldn’t control his strength. The pressure was slightly too heavy, causing Ye Xinluo to gasp in pain.
"Ouch, can you be a bit gentler?"
Realizing that she couldn’t expect him to let go of her hand, Ye Xinluo broke out in a cold sweat. If he continued rubbing like this, it would be unbearably painful.
"Bear it." Beichen Rui said grumpily without stopping.
"I..."
Ye Xinluo was frustrated and at a loss for words. How can this man be so overbearing? Why does everything have to be his way?
But, dear sir, could you please be a little gentler? My arm feels like it’s going to break.
Ye Xinluo silently complained in her heart but didn’t dare say anything, just endured the pain.
When Beichen Rui finally finished applying the dicine, Ye Xinluo was drenched in sweat from the pain.
This wasn’t applying dicine; it was kneading dough... with such force, it was killing ...
"What? Hot?" Seeing her sweating, Beichen Rui asked, puzzled. The air conditioning in the room wasn’t high at all.
Ye Xinluo: ...
Once he finished applying the dicine, Ye Xinluo finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the ss on the floor, she felt montarily speechless.
Resignedly, she got up, intending to tidy up the ss on the floor.
"What are you doing?" Beichen Rui saw her movents and questioned.
"CEO, you go about your business. I’ll clean up the floor." Ye Xinluo replied, picking up the items on the floor.
Beichen Rui strode over to her, snatching the things from her hands and pushing her back to the room.
"You’re all sweaty; go take a shower, and rember not to touch the wound." As he turned to leave, Ye Xinluo quickly called out to him.
"But I haven’t finished cleaning up yet."
"When I tell you to go, you go. Why so much nonsense?" Beichen Rui pulled the doorknob and closed the door, not giving Ye Xinluo a chance to speak.
Looking at the closed door, she felt sulky for a while before turning to the bathroom.
Sweating all over, she needed to take a shower again. But with a hand injury, she couldn’t get it wet.
Having bathed not long ago, Ye Xinluo just took a quick rinse.
After showering, she ca out of the bathroom and opened the bedroom door. The items in the living room were already cleaned up, and Beichen Rui was sitting on the sofa with a laptop on his lap, looking at docunts.
Hearing the noise from behind, he turned to glance.
"All done?" he asked casually.
"Yeah." She walked to the sofa. The food on the coffee table had already been cleared away.
"CEO, do you want to eat sothing?" Earlier, because of the scalding distraction, neither of them ate much.
"No need. There’s nothing else now, so you go rest." With that, he continued looking down at the docunts.
Ye Xinluo stayed in the living room for a while, saw that there really was nothing else, and then turned back to the room.
The phone on the bed lit up, and Ye Xinluo walked over to pick it up and glanced. It was a ssage from Lan Shan.
[Shanshan]: "Just finished dinner, what are you up to?"
She typed a ssage on her phone and sent it.
[Luo]: "I just finished dinner too. Is the little one behaving?"
This ti, Lan Shan didn’t reply with a ssage but called directly.
She swiped the screen to answer.
"Hey, Shanshan."
"Mommy." Jingxi’s voice ca from the other end of the phone. Ye Xinluo was taken aback for a mont, then smiled, "Jingxi, are you listening to your godmother at ho?"
"Yes, yes. Jingxi is very obedient." The little one’s mood seed great, voice full of cheer.
"Then be good, listen to your godmother, don’t bully Mommy, okay?"
Ye Xinluo teased the little one. After speaking, she heard laughter from the other side.
It was Lan Shan’s.
"Mommy, I won’t bully godmother. She’s so good to , and even bought ..."
Lan Shan, sitting beside the little one, put her index finger to her lips in a shushing gesture.
Jingxi quickly covered his mouth, saying no more.
Phew, almost spilled the beans.
"Mommy, I an, godmother bought
dinner."
Lan Shan sat aside, feeling a bit speechless.
But what Jingxi said was true; dinner was indeed bought.
No talent for cooking; she knows exactly how good her cooking is.
"I see." Over the phone, Ye Xinluo wasn’t surprised; even if the little one didn’t say it, she knew.
...
[Lan Shan has already fainted in the bathroom...]
"Mommy, you should rest earlier. After such a long flight, you must be tired, and you have work tomorrow."
"Alright, Jazixi, you should sleep early too. Rember to listen to godmother. Mommy will hang up now. Goodnight..."
"Goodnight."
After saying goodnight to Ye Xinluo, Jingxi hung up the phone.
Handing the phone back to Lan Shan.
"Jingxi, how about letting godmother give you a bath?"
The little one looked shyly at Lan Shan for a while without saying a word.
Besides Mommy, no one else has ever bathed him, and he felt a little uneasy.
Even though the person in front of him is godmother, it’s still a bit embarrassing.
