Chapter 579: Chapter 579: Insisting on Buying Her Clothes
Her face was also somewhat pale, not sure if it was from pain or from retching.
“Are you okay?” Chi Enen disapprovingly glanced at Li Beijue and courteously asked Lin Nai.
Lin Nai squeezed out a thin smile, “I’m fine.”
Then she said to Li Beijue, “Mr. Li, thank you for helping me up.”
Chi Enen furrowed her brows slightly but said nothing, stepping forward to ask her, “By the way, do you know where the medical kit is in the room? I’ll help you take care of your forehead wound.”
“This…” Lin Nai had wanted to get rid of her already, her eyes shifting, and she said helplessly, “I don’t know either, why don’t you, Enen, help me look for it.”
Chi Enen had barely agreed when Li Beijue grabbed her wrist. His handsome face was full of impatience, “Why look for it, you’re not a doctor. The hotel has specialized medical staff, call and someone will take care of it.”
Then he dismissively told Lin Nai, “You rest well.”
After dropping this sentence, without even a glance at Lin Nai, he pulled Chi Enen out.
Chi Enen, caught off guard, staggered as she was pulled out of the room. They had entered the elevator before Li Beijue let go of her hand, his sharp eyes surveying her up and down several times, as if very dissatisfied with something, suddenly said, “Chi Enen, it seems I really need to take you to buy a couple of clothes…”
Why would he suddenly think of taking her to buy clothes? Chi Enen couldn’t keep up with his line of thought, “I have enough clothes to wear, no need to buy any.”
“What you’re wearing is not called clothes! Know the leaves strung up on the bodies of people in primitive society? What you’re wearing is equivalent to those leaves, at most it’s just a loincloth!”
His mouth stunk so bad, Chi Enen’s face turned dark, her temple throbbing, she stubbornly refused, “A loincloth is still cloth, anyway I have enough clothes, I’m not buying. If you want to buy, you go buy, I won’t wear it.”
Is this woman even a woman? Other women, upon hearing a man say he would buy clothes, would cling to him with their chests. What kind of attitude was this?
Li Beijue narrowed his eyes, “I’m buying for you!”
“I don’t want it!” She couldn’t afford to buy herself now either, having given all her money to the nursing home. Apart from the bank card Baby Chi had left with her, she was nearly broke.
The thing was, she didn’t think she was short on clothes. She had plenty of clothes, and their style was simple and elegant. She didn’t feel the need for new clothes.
“Chi Enen, how can you not understand human speech?” Li Beijue suddenly trapped her between his arms, leaning down, his hot breath on her face, anger tinting his falcon-like eyes, “Clothes make the man, Buddha is dressed in gold, you’ve heard it, right? You can wear the clothes you buy yourself, I have no objection. But some cats and dogs don’t see well and will bark at you. You’re my woman, if you look good, then I look good.”
“…” So what she’s wearing isn’t good enough and it reflected poorly on him, was that it? Chi Enen heard such words from him for the first time, and although she was aware that Li Beijue just wanted to buy her clothes without any other ulterior motive, the words conveyed to Chi Enen just how stark the difference in their status was.
She took a deep breath, pondered for a moment, and relented, “Okay, okay, let’s buy. But we need to agree that we will buy only the clothes I say we should buy. You can’t make decisions on your own without asking my opinion.”
Li Beijue had not noticed the ambiguity in his words and thought she had finally seen reason, unusually conceding a half step, “Fine. I’ll choose the store!”
