ightly, then spoke decisively, "You don't know her, a female friend of mine."Before this, Li Bocen had been quite bothered by her treating him as a substitute for Yu Chengnan. Even though he knew thin..."Su Fang's steamed buns, Elder Master Fengxian's seafood porridge, and Wang Laotian's handmade bread, this is too extravagant..." Su Qiao couldn't help but exclaim again, suddenly feeling that her breakfast was just trash.

Luo Ningxi handed Su Qiao a pair of chopsticks. "Sit down and eat first. Eat more if you like."

On the surface, he seemed calm, but inside, his heart was in turmoil. What did Li Bochen mean by that

Staying up all night again, and someone even went to buy me breakfast

Is that a request

Luo Ningxi opened her phone's communication page, but Li Bochen had no messages or notifications.

If it's about summing something, he should have messaged himself by now.

Is he waiting for me to give him a step down

Alright, seeing as he's good-looking, Lu Ningxi decided to go along with him.

Luo Ningxi arranged a plentiful breakfast, took a picture of it, and sent it to Li Bochen.

I received the breakfast you sent, it's very plentiful and satisfying. How long do you plan to be gone

She thought Li Bichen would react this time, but after waiting for a long time, her phone didn't light up again.

What's going on

Wasn't he making nice

Su Qiao walked over and asked, “I originally thought your cheap husband was a stingy Phoenix man. Now I feel like he's actually quite considerate. When is he coming back I really want to meet him...”

Luo Ningxi didn't know what Li Boche meant, and she replied impatiently, "I messaged him, but he might be busy and hasn't seen it. I'll introduce you next time."

"You didn't even wait to offer me a bribe" Su Qiao questioned, suspicious.

Lu Ningxi was clueless, so she started eating. Although the hotel wasn't close to here, the congee and dishes were all hot, clearly having been reheated beforehand.

The dead duck, surprisingly thoughtful, she felt embarrassed to continue being angry with him!

Meanwhile, in the old Li family mansion, in Old Master Li's bedroom, Li Bohan was resting on a chair beside the bed.

That night, after he stormed out of the house in a fit of anger, he soon saw a text message from Luo Ningxi. The nameless fire in his heart subsided slightly. He had thought about ignoring her for a day before going back to find her, but unexpectedly, yesterday afternoon, he received a call from the caretaker of the old mansion.

The old man has been having palpitations and shortness of breath lately. His heart is giving him trouble, so he rushed back to the old house to take care of his father at night.

The old man is getting older and his condition is fluctuating. Li Bohan stayed up most of the night last night taking care of him, and only fell asleep this morning.

The vibration of his phone in his palm jolted Li Bochen awake. He saw a message from Luo Ningxi and his brow furrowed, though he was still slightly annoyed. He considered himself a man of integrity, about to reply when rustling sounds came from the bed beside him. Old Master Li had also woken up.

Li Bochen remained composed, slipping his phone back into his pocket. He got up and supported Old Master Li, instructing the butler to call the family doctor.

"I'm fine..." Old Man Li struggled to sit up, leaning against the soft pillow, "Just my old ailment acting up. You stayed here and watched over me all night"

The old butler called me, so I came over. Why didn't you go to the hospital

Mr. Li sighed, a touch of seriousness on his face. "Although the Li Group appears to be sailing smoothly now, I know that many people would like to see me in trouble. If I went to the hospital and was caught by the media, tomorrow someone would probably spread rumors about my critical illness, and the stock price would be affected the day after."

"You can't sacrifice your own health for them. I'll have the news blocked and take you to the hospital later."

Li Bochen knew very well who the old man was talking about, a gloom flashing across his eyes.

Old Mr. Li was not happy. "I know my own body best, I'm not dead yet."

"Didn't you say you were going to protect me You should be taking good care of your health, not slacking off." Li Bichen said in a low voice.

Lord Li and Li Bocen looked at each other for a moment, then Lord Li changed the subject, "If you're willing to go to work at the corporation, I'll go to the hospital right away."

Is this about him using his body to coerce me into submission worldly affairs.He watched her grow up little by little, like a flower bud slowly blooming, blossoming into a graceful and lovely young woman.He was aware of the age gap between them and never dared...
