I'll quarrel with you when I'm done

When he left the Tyrant Forest Group, it was just past eleven in the afternoon. Shu Yao looked at the time and didn't hurry back to the hotel.

On this trip to France, no matter what the job was, he would take the time to shop around and buy some things for his daughter to bring home.

Furthermore, there was another young fellow in the family. Diu Diu's previous predicament was really too pitiful. Even though he might not live by her side for long, they could all be considered fates, so she did not want to mistreat a child.

After strolling for around a few hours, Shu Yao bought a huge pile, which were all children's clothes and toys.

What girls liked, and what boys liked, were basically different. They were all bought separately, and other than that, when she looked at the dazzling display windows, the only thing she thought of was Zheng Er.

He was eight years old and had already entered primary school. His grades were outstanding and he was handsome. If it wasn't for the accident before, he would have entered primary school now.

His heart ached unknowingly, as if he had been caught by a cat. It hurt so much that he couldn't breathe.

Somehow, his stomach also began to hurt.

At first, she didn't pay much attention to it. She continued shopping for various items, filling in the address, paying the bill, and sending the goods back to the hotel.

However, the stomachache was getting worse and worse. She had no choice but to take care of it. She rummaged through her bag but didn't find any stomach medicine. She didn't even have any painkillers. It was really sloppy!

In the past few years, perhaps it was because she had been too busy with work, but she had unknowingly changed to have a stomachache.

Unexpectedly, it became even more intense.

He couldn't stay in the mall any longer. He called a taxi and rushed back to the hotel.

When he got out of the car to pay, the driver looked back and saw her expression. He immediately asked, "Miss, are you alright?"

Shaking her head, she forced a smile on her face and got out of the car before heading back to the hotel.

After getting on the elevator, he quickly pressed the '11' button and closed the door. The door slowly closed, but at the last moment, a bony hand stopped the door.

She was startled, and looked up to see Li Chenxi.

It was really unfortunate, but right at this moment, Shu Yao's heart was secretly impatient. Resisting the severe pain in her stomach, her gaze indifferently shifted away from his face.

Li Chenxi's tall figure was blocking the stairs' door. Because of his existence, the elevator door could not close, and was stuck at the first floor, unable to go up.

Shu Yao frowned, and looked at him, "Please step aside."

The words were simple and straightforward.

Li Chenxi was extremely dissatisfied with her tone, his cold gaze striking her, his face dark: "Are you talking to me?"

"Otherwise? To the air? " Shu Yao had a stomachache in her stomach. She really didn't have time to bicker with Yue Yang, she just wanted to quickly head upstairs to find some medicine to eat.

Li Chenxi laughed coldly, his tall and straight body moving forward slightly, yet he still did not completely move the staircase, only leaned forward, and grabbed onto her slender wrist with his sturdy arm. "Shu Yao, is this the tone you use when talking to me?"

Her impatient face turned even more unsightly. Even her eyes revealed impatience as she struggled with all her strength. At the same time, she asked, "Then, what tone do you think I should use?"

The fact that he purposely added a "you" with a slightly arrogant expression and an unsightly expression made Li Chenxi even more unhappy. His gaze trembled as he grabbed onto her wrist with even more force than before, making him unable to move.

"Alright, you've learned how to provoke others, right?"

Shu Yao took a deep breath and struggled to close her eyes. She wanted to suppress the pain in her stomach, but it was to no avail. She clenched her teeth helplessly.

It was rare for her to pant so slightly, as if she had spent a great deal of effort just to breathe.

Li Chenxi's pupils shrank as he looked into her eyes.

"I have something on right now. If you want to fight, can you change the time?" He still had a tough tone, but no confidence.

His pale complexion was even worse, even his lips were completely pale, without a single trace of blood. He was completely showing off his unbearable pain and discomfort.

She didn't like to show her weakness in front of others, even if it was him.

Therefore, Shu Yao was still trying her best to hold back.

However, pain was not something that could be suppressed with much perseverance.

Staring at her pale face and the beads of sweat on her forehead, Li Chenxi frowned. He subconsciously moved away from the door and stepped into the elevator.

The trapdoor slowly closed and rose.

Shu Yao heaved a sigh of relief from the bottom of her heart, she pulled out from his hands and supported herself on the wall, slightly gasping for breath, showing the weakness of her body.

All of this had fallen into his eyes.

raised her head, looked at his side profile, and powerlessly bit her lips. She only said, "I'm fine."

His forehead twitched. This woman was always like this. No matter how bad her body was, she would always say that she was fine!

Did she think she was Superman? you never care about yourself

The elevator went up to the 11th floor, and Shu Yao's room was at the furthest point.

She took a step, her high heels brushing past him. The instant she stepped off the elevator, her arm was grabbed again.

Shu Yao turned around and said listlessly, "I really have something on my mind. I'll argue with you when I'm fine, okay?"

The way she spoke sounded as if she was coaxing a child.

Li Chenxi frowned, could it be that just because he appeared, he only knew how to argue with her? What did I take him for!?

Sweeping the haze in her eyes, Ye Ci gripped her hand with a little strength. A few cold words escaped her mouth, "Go to the hospital — —"

"What hospital? It's nothing, it's fine!" She forced a smile, pulled herself out of his grasp, and stepped off the elevator.

Li Chenxi also walked down with large strides, and blocked her path once again, "We'll go now!"

Shu Yao raised her head, looked at him with cold eyes and smiled.

That smile was indifferent, powerless, and on his weak face, that smile was as calm as a distant mountain, extremely beautiful.

Seeing the care and concern in his deep eyes, she was very pleased. She shook her head and stubbornly said, "I'm really fine, just go back and take some medicine!"

Moving away from him, she stopped again after a few steps.

Hearing the sound of her high heels disappearing, Li Chenxi's heart suddenly froze. Just as he was about to turn around, he heard her say —

"Thank you."

At that moment, the hatred and anger that he had painstakingly built up had been completely destroyed. His originally calm mind had been destroyed at the same time.

When he returned to the elevator, he turned his head. The smooth walls reflected the contours of his handsome features. The corners of his lips were slightly raised.

It was unknown whether it was joy or sadness that completely affected his mind.

Li Chenxi finally mustered up the courage to hate her, but he was still unable to control himself in the end. Ever since this woman appeared in his life, everything was slowly changing …

He took out his phone and dialed Huang Yi's number.

"Go and thoroughly investigate whether everything has to do with the boulder or with her. Check all the travel arrangements within three months before she returns home, the more detailed the better."

Huang Yi, who was at home with his phone, helplessly lifted his hand to push the glasses on his nose. Only after a reaction did he understand what his boss was referring to, and he subconsciously nodded in agreement.

After hanging up, he sighed helplessly.

Looking up, he saw Secretary Lee standing beside him. Hearing his question, he asked, "What did Mr. Li tell you to do just now?"

Huang Yi's eyes flickered. He said, "It's nothing. Let me investigate the market situation of K Group and prepare for the development of the Mystery Project."

Secretary Lee lowered his head and did not say another word.

Huang Yi was very smart. Secretary Lee was someone sent by Jiang Wenyi, he was very clear on what he could and couldn't say.
