Chapter 125: Falling due to Jealousy
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Police Chief was very respectful to Old Master Li. He stood in front of him and bowed respectfully. He then asked, “What’s going on?”
Seeing that the matter had blown up, Li Yanghong guiltily shirked responsibility and explained, “Something happened in the Li Corporation. We wanted to come and discuss the matters regarding the control of the company. It’s a family matter. I don’t know why it caused the Police Chief to come here personally. It’s really a misunderstanding!”
Wu Mei lifted her eyes and interrupted them disdainfully, “Do you need to cause trouble at our home about matters related to the corporation?”
“You’re both adults. Can’t you separate work and life? Or are you deliberately trying to anger Grandpa Li and force him to agree to your terms?”
Li Yanghong was so angry that his eyes widened. Sensing that the Police Chief was staring at him, he stammered, “We’re just concerned about the Old Master! An old man watching his grandchild die before him. We just want to talk to him and comfort him!”
Wu Mei turned back to look at Old Master Li. THen, she exposed their malicious intentions with a sneer as she retorted, “In that case, Grandpa said that he doesn’t want to see you…”
“Yet you pretended not to hear it and tried to force your way into the house. It should be considered a deliberate provocation. At worst, you will be detained for 15 days, right?”
Wu Mei glanced at the Police Chief. Aware of Wu Mei’s identity, he immediately chased the Li family’s relatives away and berated them sternly, “If you don’t leave now, I’ll start arresting people!”
The collateral branch of the Li family left resentfully. Feeling indignant, they turned around and glared fiercely at Wu Mei.
“Thank you.”
Wu Mei walked over to K’s side. In order to be able to get the Police Chief to personally visit the Li Family’s villa in a short period of time, she could only ask K to step in…
K looked up indifferently at the window on the second floor and glanced at the tell figure who was shielding her. He said softly, “It was just to carry out a mission.”
“Do you need me to assign people around the villa to protect you?”
K looked at her solemnly. Wu Mei shook her head. If the Ministry of Defense gets involved, many things would be difficult to control. “There’s no need.”
In the bedroom on the second floor, Li Nanchen was worried that Wu Mei would encounter trouble. He picked up the mirror on the bedside table and adjusted the angle. The intimate scene of Wu Mei and K conversing appeared in the mirror. His pretty brows furrowed as he felt a dull ache in his heart…
He removed the needle from the IV drip and pulled the thin blanket aside. Using his hand to prop himself up on the edge of the bed, he sat up and wanted to go downstairs to shield Wu Mei by his side…
Li Nanchen swayed twice. His body was so weak that he did not have any strength left. He had just taken two small steps when he crashed onto the ground!
The equipment let out an ear-piercing sound. He clenched his fists tightly. The mirror had shattered into pieces and cut his forehead. He hated how he looked right now…
After Wu Mei sent K and the Police Chief off, she pushed open the door and saw Li Nanchen lying on the ground. She rushed to his side and helped him up. “You can’t get out of bed in your current condition. Why aren’t you being obedient? Do you want to lie in bed for a few more days?”
“Talk!”
Wu Mei’s tone was extremely harsh. She took out the first aid kit to treat the wound on his forehead and deliberately applied force when she pressed on his wound, causing Li Nanchen to gasp and grab her wrist. Their eyes met and the surrounding air seemed to freeze…
Li Nanchen did not want to admit that he was jealous because of her conversation with K. His gaze fell on the open door and he stammered, “All of you were outside. I wanted to go to the washroom, but I accidentally…”
Wu Mei stopped what she was doing. Staring at Li Nanchen’s cold face which was blushing slightly, she suddenly understood something!
As a doctor, she had considered Li Nanchen’s condition but not his biological needs! He must have been suppressing it…
She placed Li Nanchen’s hand on her shoulder and helped him to the washroom.
Li Nanchen held onto the water tank and looked at Wu Mei who was still standing at the same spot. Just as he was feeling puzzled, he saw her slowly lean over and untie the bandage around his waist. Her small hands nimbly hooked onto the buttons as she undid his pants and wanted to pull them down…
His expression changed drastically and he stopped her hand in embarrassment. In a quavering voice, he asked, “What are you doing?”
Wu Mei’s eyes were clear and she replied in an exceptionally frank manner, “Helping you to relieve yourself! You need to hold the water tank with both hands. Or can you… do it on your own?”
“With our relationship, there’s no need to hide from each other, is there?”
“I even know exactly how many moles you have on your body…”
Li Nanchen could feel her seriousness. His ears were almost dripping with blood as he pushed her and said, “Get out!”
Bang! The bathroom door slammed shut.
Wu Mei knocked lightly on the door and leaned all her weight against it. She said towards the inside of the bathroom, “Don’t be stubborn.. Let me know when you’re done. Don’t be shy!”
