dn't help but lock his brows, "Dad, what on earth is going on How did you suddenly faint""Getting old, not as sharp as I used to be. My head was spinning a bit while I was looking through files today...."Depression That's impossible!" Li Bochen frowned even tighter, still unwilling to believe that Luo Ningxi would suffer from depression!

"Being cooped up in here all day with no friends or social activities, let alone being pregnant, would make even a cat or dog sick."

Laura tried her best to soften her words, but she couldn't resist the man's sharp and piercing gaze. Her voice unconsciously lowered a few decibels, "Besides, this is typical prenatal depression. If emotions aren't controlled, it will definitely affect the baby in her womb. Fourth Master, you must think this through carefully."

Li Bochen's eyes narrowed, and he couldn't help but recall the maid mentioning that Luo Ningxi had been acting very strangely recently. She was even seen going to the beach in the middle of the night, and there were often low sobs coming from her room!

If all of this is true, then his neglect is slowly worsening her condition...

Li Boche's agitation grew with every passing thought, "I'll go take a look at her."

"By the way, there's one more thing. I found..."

Laura was about to say something more, but Li Botong had already pushed open the door and walked into the room. Laura's last sentence was cut off by a door. She helplessly pressed her forehead, Mr. Li, this is caring chaos!

Actually, she wanted to say that Miss Luo's injuries weren't really that serious...

In the room, Lu Ningxi had already woken up.

The doctors had bandaged her wounds and given her an IV. When Li Boche arrived, she was lying weakly against the headboard, her pale face devoid of any color.

As the man's footsteps drew closer, Lu Ningxi's almond eyes trembled slightly. She rolled over to face away from him, silently protesting.

Li Bochen saw that she was awake and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

When his gaze fell upon her wrist wrapped in gauze, he still clenched his palm irritably, "Is this your new protest method Suicide"

Lu Ningxi's body trembled slightly, "I don't want to see you, get out!"

Li Bochen tried his best to keep his voice calm and controlled, "The doctor said you need to maintain a cheerful mood. Continuous pessimism is not good for you or the child. We can talk about it properly."

"A cheerful mood Do you think I, trapped like a bird in a cage by you, could still maintain a good disposition If you want me to talk to you properly, then fine, let me go now!" Luo Ningxi slowly propped herself up and sat up, lifting her eyes to sneer, "If you can't do that, then you can just leave now!"

The coldness and determination in her eyes made Li Bichen's face even darker, "I didn't say I wouldn't let you go, the premise is that you safely give birth to the child."

"Imprison me for this child Very well, then let's fight to the death!" Luo Ningxi sneered, suddenly raising her hand without warning and pulling out the needle attached to her back that was injecting nutrients.

A trickle of blood welled up from the pinprick, flowing down his slender wrist and dripping onto the pristine white sheets.

"Luo Ningxi! Are you crazy!"

Li Bochen's face changed drastically, and he immediately reached out to grasp her palm and press the needle point for her.

Luo Ningxi seemed to feel no pain, the corner of her lips curled into a cold smile. "Yes, I'm crazy. Rather than being imprisoned by you, with my child born and controlled by you for life, I might as well take my child to seek freedom and liberation!"

Her obsessive look was just like Li Boche's when he disregarded everything to marry her. Li Boche's heart felt as if it had been ripped apart by something sharp. Could she really be depressed to the point of madness

This realization made Li Boche's breath hitch again. He didn't say anything more, silently got up and left the room.

Luo Ningxi glanced at his departing back with the waning light, then lowered her head to look at the purplish-blue injection marks that Li Bochen had pressed into her. Her indifferent and empty eyes gradually focused, it seemed... her strategy of feigning pain was still effective against him.

Baby, don't blame Mommy, Mommy has to take you away from here!

……

Outside, a corridor.

Li Bochen walked out of the room with a cold face, and the doctors and servants involuntarily lowered their heads.

Li Bochen's cold eyes swept across the crowd, his voice as cold as ice, "From now on, everyone keep an eye on Madam. If even a scratch appears on her body, or a single drop of blood is shed, you won't need to live in this world anymore."

The door behind him was ajar, and a cold, austere voice with immense pressure seeped into Luo Ningxi's ears.

And everyone shivered, hurriedly nodding respectfully.

Luo Ningxi tightened her grip on the blanket, she knew this man was deliberately saying it for her to hear!

That's despicable!

Li Bochen finished speaking and strode away.

Laura saw this and hurriedly followed, asking in confusion, “Mr. Li, are you deliberately saying this to Miss Luo She can’t be stimulated now, how come you…”

“You underestimate her! Depression The Luo family has gone through so many changes, and she doesn't show any signs of depression. Maybe, she’s just waiting for me to soften my heart!” Li Boche coldly interrupted her. Despite saying that, a trace of worry still flashed across his brow.

He didn't believe that Lu Ningxi would suffer from depression, but the moment he held Lu Ningxi's cold body today, he admitted he was truly afraid!

He was afraid she might really leave him if things got too bad.

Damn woman!

Li Bochen sat impatiently in front of his computer for a long time before finally finding Nan Hanchuan's WeChat and dialing him.iqin was so angry that tears streamed down her face. She never imagined that she, a top-tier socialite, would suffer such humiliation!"Mom, I can't take it anymore! Luo Ningxi is too much! Are we just...
