Chapter 482: Chapter 482: Master Jue Really Cares About You
Throughout the journey, Chi Enen was immersed in the joy of pregnancy.
Upon arriving at Zijing Garden and opening the door, Baby Chi rushed to the entryway, “Woman, you’re back.”
Chi Enen placed the vitamins on the table and slipped into her slippers, touching the top of his head, “Yes, I’m back.”
Baby Chi really wanted to ask her about the medical checkup results, but he held back because Huo Yi was still there.
He decided to let it go; he had promised his woman that if she didn’t want to talk about it, he wouldn’t betray her trust. If necessary, he could find an opportunity to ask her himself.
Huo Yi also came over and greeted her respectfully, “Miss Chi, you’ve returned so early? I thought you would have dinner outside.”
“I parted ways with my friends early.”
She walked into the living room and found it empty; Li Beijue still hadn’t returned.
She felt an indescribable sense of loss.
Huo Yi caught all her reactions and suddenly said to Chi Jingchen, who was clinging to Chi Enen, “Little Young Master, you haven’t finished your oil painting yet. If you don’t continue, the colors will dry.”
“Oh right,” he remembered such a task at hand. Chi Jingchen looked up, conflicted, and spoke to Chi Enen, “Woman, wait for me, okay? I’ll finish the painting, then we can watch Boonie Bears together.”
With her promise, he happily ran to the study room.
Huo Yi poured Chi Enen a cup of water and handed it over, “Miss Chi, there are things that should and shouldn’t be said at certain times.”
Chi Enen accepted the water cup, her bright eyes looked at him with confusion, “Butler Huo, please speak your mind.”
“Then I’ll speak frankly.” Huo Yi folded his hands in front of him, his suit neat, “Miss Chi, have you been giving Master Jue the cold shoulder?”
“…” Chi Enen bit her lower lip.
Huo Yi knew he had guessed correctly and continued, “Since the family photo was taken, I’ve noticed that Miss Chi has been particularly cold to Master Jue. I know Miss Chi has been hiding it well, even going to catch fireflies with the little young master afterward… But Miss Chi is not someone who can keep things buried. Though you haven’t said anything, it’s evident from your behavior that there is conflict between you and Master Jue.”
“Is it that obvious?” Chi Enen asked, looking towards him.
Huo Yi solemnly nodded, “Very obvious, even I can see it. Master Jue must have also noticed Miss Chi’s coldness towards him.”
Chi Enen pressed her lips together, “…”
“Throughout this year, Master Jue’s paranoia has been very well controlled because of Miss Chi, but that doesn’t mean Master Jue no longer has issues. What Master Jue cares about most is Miss Chi, and he’s naturally very sensitive to your emotions. Miss Chi’s resistance will inevitably trigger Master Jue’s paranoia. I’m guessing that you and Master Jue had a conflict that morning, am I right?”
“Yes.” It wasn’t a conflict; Li Beijue was angry.
And then… he became a beast.
“I knew it… That day, Miss Chi didn’t come downstairs the whole day. In the afternoon, Master Jue came down, and he was in a very bad mood. It has been a long time since I saw Master Jue like that. If Miss Chi had seen it, you would have felt compassion for him.”
“He… was in a very bad mood?” Chi Enen’s throat felt dry, and her voice dropped.
Huo Yi looked at her, his eyes sincere, “What do you think, Miss Chi? I believe you can feel how much Master Jue cares about you. Suddenly, you’ve become cold towards him, and with Master Jue being a sensitive man, how could he be okay?”
“You’ve not been eating well these past several days, and neither has Master Jue. He’s had a stomach attack but didn’t allow me to tell you. You didn’t let him sleep with you, and Master Jue has not slept for three days; he has been staying in the study working like a madman. I know relationships are between two people, and as an onlooker, I shouldn’t interject, but Miss Chi, I hope you can be gentler with Master Jue. Because Master Jue truly cares about you, he really does.”
