“Zhuang Li!” The sweet smile on Wei Xi’er’s face slowly disappeared. She lifted her head and seriously interrupted Zhuang Li’s words as she said, “It was Mrs. Ji who saved me. When we were in conflict, Mrs. Ji also comforted me by my side. No matter what, Mrs. Ji did not let me down. I don’t like what you said. Please don’t say it anymore. Moreover, a gentleman shouldn’t talk about others behind their backs,” Wei Xi’er said softly. “On the contrary, I owe Mrs. Ji a lot.”
Seeing Wei Xi’er’s determined expression, Zhuang Li’s heart skipped a beat as he thought, “What is wrong with this woman? Aren’t all women jealous of outstanding women? Why is Wei Xi’er so protective of Shen Hanxing that he couldn’t even say a word about her? Yet, Wei Xi’er said she loved me. Just mentioning Shen Hanxing made her expression change. Is this how she loves me?”
Zhuang Li felt slightly annoyed, but he smiled and said gently, “I’m just concerned about you and don’t want you to get hurt. Fine, if you don’t like to hear it, I won’t say it. Xi’er, don’t be angry with me because of this.” He held the back of Wei Xi’er’s head. Then, he pulled the distance between them closer and said in an ambiguous deep voice, “I’m just concerned about you. Don’t let this affect our relationship, okay?”
Zhuang Li’s handsome face slowly enlarged before Wei Xi’er’s eyes. His eyes were full of deep affection. Wei Xi’er was a little smitten. She nodded subconsciously and looked away, feeling shy.
Zhuang Li did not fully fasten the buttons of his hospital gown. A bandage wrapped around his waist and abdomen, revealing his firm chest and tight muscles. As the second young master of the Zhuang family, Zhuang Li’s figure was naturally great. It exposed four abdominal muscles above the bandage, and the bandage covered the rest. His entire body was filled with the scent of mature male hormones.
Wei Xi’er’s face flushed red. She was flustered, and she did not know where to look. Zhuang Li curled his lips and whispered by her ear, “Are you satisfied with what you saw?”
Wei Xi’er’s face instantly flushed red again. She opened her mouth to explain, but Zhuang Li’s fiery tongue stopped her from saying anything. He sucked in the sweetness of her lips. Wei Xi’er could not help but close her eyes. She took the initiative to deepen the kiss. She did not notice Zhuang Li kissing her fiercely, yet he was calm. He was looking at her intoxicated expression coldly.
Outside the door, Shen Sisi saw the scene in the ward. Her fingers holding the bouquet had turned white because she had used too much strength. That was the man who said he loved her. He was injured but still kissing another woman on the hospital bed. Was he that impatient?
Shen Sisi’s eyes flashed with intense hatred. Sooner or later, she would make Zhuang Li regret it!
After the kiss ended, Wei Xi’er’s breathing was a little hurried. She carefully leaned against Zhuang Li’s chest and rubbed her body against it.
At this moment, Wei Xi’er’s stomach let out an awkward growl. That sound was obvious in the quiet ward. Wei Xi’er’s face instantly flushed red. She held her stomach and supported her body, wishing she could find a hole to hide in. “I… I didn’t… I didn’t have time to eat today when I encountered those things…” She and Shen Hanxing had originally wanted to eat at a restaurant. But in the end, they first fled for their lives and fought. Then, she sent Zhuang Li to the hospital and even cried loudly. She had used up so much energy, so it was normal for her to be hungry.
However, her stomach growled at an inappropriate time. Under such intimate circumstances, it was embarrassing.
“Silly girl, why didn’t you tell me you were hungry?” Zhuang Li chuckled and scratched the tip of Wei Xi’er’s nose. “Why are you so cute? You must be starving.”
“I… I’m not that hungry,” Wei Xi’er felt happier. She subconsciously shook her head, but her stomach growled again. The smile on Zhuang Li’s face became wider. “You should go eat first. How can you take care of a patient like me if you don’t eat? I don’t want you to starve.”
“What about you?” Wei Xi’er hesitated. If she went to eat, what would happen to Zhuang Li? He had just finished his surgery and could not eat for a long time.
“I’m not hungry,” Zhuang Li smiled and rubbed Wei Xi’er’s hair, “moreover, I can’t eat either. You go ahead. I’ll be fine. There are nurses here.”
Wei Xi’er was indeed hungry. She nodded since Zhuang Li insisted. After taking good care of him, she went downstairs to eat. Seeing Wei Xi’er take the elevator and leave, Shen Sisi pushed open the ward door. A worried expression appeared on her face. With tears in her eyes, she quickly stepped forward. “Zhuang Li, are you okay? I heard that you were injured.”
