Jiang Yuxin was furious when she saw his submissive look. She asked in a severe tone, "Did she believe you?"
The male nurse nodded repeatedly, "Yes, she believed me. She even mentioned giving me a reward. Sister Yuxin, I obediently followed your instructions. Can you delete those photos now?" There was uneasiness in his tone.
Jiang Yuxin sneered. She took out her phone and deleted all the photos from her album that she had used to threaten him. The handsome boy finally heaved a sigh of relief.
...
Meanwhile, after the male nurse had left, Jiang Yule turned around and called Zuo You. The phone only rang once before the call was picked up. "Sister Jiang, we just got home. Also, about what you told me at the hospital, I thought about it…"
After chatting with Zuo You for around twenty minutes, Jiang Yule hung up the phone. Then, she heard a faint sound from Li Xingyi's hospital ward and immediately walked inside.
Li Xingyi had woken up from his peaceful slumber and was sitting up on the hospital bed. His white shirt, which was always meticulously taken care of, had become wrinkled, and his hair was a little messy. He looked different from his usual self.
"Master Li, are you feeling unwell anywhere? Do you need me to call the doctor over?" Jiang Yule asked with concern in her eyes. Then, she turned around and was about to leave to find a doctor.
But before she could take a few steps, the man's deep and magnetic voice came from behind her. "There's no need to call a doctor."
Jiang Yu Le had no choice but to turn around and maintain a gentle smile on her face. 'Weren't you unconscious in the elevator? You shouldn't remember what I said, right?'
This was what the system had told her.
Wang Jianguo was speechless. 'No, I never said that.'
Li Xingyi calmly passed her the necktie that he had just pulled off. He wanted her to help him re-tie it for him. Then, his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, and it drew Jiang Yule's attention immediately.
'The internet says that the bigger the Adam's apple...' Li Xingyi, having a rough idea of what she was about to say, was just about to lift the corner of his lips in a smirk when he heard the next sentence. '...the bigger the jaw muscles.'
Li Xingyi's face darkened. It seemed that he would never be able to guess the woman's thoughts.
When she was finished, Jiang Yule asked in a gentle voice, "Master Li, are you satisfied?" Her slightly flushed face was filled with joy. She took a step back, and her doe-like eyes were shining, as if waiting for his praise.
Li Xingyi wondered why it felt as though his tie was trying to strangle him today. He reached up to loosen it, but he did not feel the familiar leading knot. He immediately looked down and saw a perfectly tied bow tie in the middle of his collar.
"You... What did you do?"
Jiang Yule smiled gently. "This is a new technique that I recently learned online. They say it's both elegant and masculine, and it has been trending lately."
'You haven't seen it before, right? Of course not, because I made it up!'
Li Xingyi's face turned grim as he forcefully untied the bow tie that Jiang Yule had tied. With his well-defined fingers, he swiftly re-tied the tie and then said to her, "Let's go home."
"After you, Master Li," Jiang Yule said with a lowered gaze.
'Hasn't your teacher taught you to do things by yourself since you were young? You even asked me to tie your tie. Do I look like someone who knows how to tie a tie?
'But Li Xingyi's attitude today seems really strange. Could he have actually heard the story in the elevator?'
As she was muttering in her heart, the man walking in front of her suddenly turned around. "Selling bombs?"
Jiang Yule broke out in a cold sweat. 'No way!'
She tentatively said, "Master Li, what are you talking about? I don't understand…"
Li Xingyi ignored her, as if what he had said was just her imagination. It made Jiang Yule feel anxious throughout the journey back home.
The two of them returned to the main residence of the Li Family. Jiang Yule had just stepped into the main hall when Li Sui'an suddenly ran up to her and hugged her leg tightly. She lowered her head and saw a drowsy child who was still fighting to stay awake.
"Why did you come home so late? You haven't told me the bedtime story you promised me!" Li Sui'an complained.
Aunt Wang also came to them with a smile. "Young Master Li has been waiting for you to return. I did ask him to go to bed first, but he refused."
However, Li Sui'an denied it. He snorted coldly and quietly retorted, "Who was waiting for her? I stayed awake because I wasn't tired."
Jiang Yule could not help but laugh. She bent down and hugged the little boy in her arms. She kissed his fair, chubby face and said, "Let's go. I'll tell you a bedtime story now. You need to go to bed early because you have to go to school tomorrow."
As soon as he heard about going to school tomorrow, the little boy's eyebrows furrowed tightly. Even the haughty and dominant young master of the Li Family, like any ordinary child, disliked the idea of going to school.
