Chapter 1804: Her Fault
Xu Qingzhi scooped a new bowl of porridge for Limo while she poured the fried rice into two sandwiches. She scooped a bowl of porridge and ate breakfast with him.
From time to time, Li Mo’s eyes would land on the sandwich in Xu Qingzhi’s hand. After taking a look, he would take a sip of the porridge. It was too easy to understand him.
Xu Qingzhi smiled and handed him the sandwich. “Do you want some?”
Li Mo raised an eyebrow and was about to take it when Xu Qingzhi retracted her hand.
“Aren’t you self-disciplined? You ate it just because I gave it to you?”
Li Mo gritted his teeth. “You dare to trick me?”
Xu Qingzhi covered her mouth and chuckled. “This is a test of your self-control. You know that your stomach isn’t good and you can’t eat these things, but you’re still craving them?”
Li Mo’s handsome face turned cold. “Just you wait!”
Xu Qingzhi didn’t say anything and took a bite of the sandwich. Her tone was exaggerated.
“Mmm ~ It’s delicious!”
…
Li Mo gritted his teeth.
Xu Qingzhi finished one sandwich and drank a bowl of porridge. She was a little worried about the second sandwich and felt a little regretful. However, she didn’t continue eating because of Limo’s reminder.
Looking up to see that Li Mo was still eating porridge, she couldn’t help but frown. “Why are you eating so… slowly today?”
Xu Qingzhi’s tone changed.
Li Mo glared at her. “My stomach hurts! Do you still want me to drink?”
Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips. There was no time to talk nicely.
After Li Mo finished the porridge, Xu Qingzhi pushed him upstairs and asked the doctor to prescribe water.
After she was done, Limo suddenly said, “You can leave the dressing to her. If there’s anything, you can leave first!”
Because this doctor had interrupted him, he couldn’t stand the sight of him.
The doctor couldn’t wait any longer and quickly told Xu Qingzhi how to change the medicine. It was nothing more than inserting the needle into another bottle after the first bottle was done. There was no need to adjust the speed. After the IV drip, she could just pull the needle out parallel.
Xu Qingzhi frowned and reluctantly agreed. It didn’t sound difficult, but she hoped that there would be professionals present!
However, Li Mo didn’t allow it. He only changed the dressing and removed the needles. She shouldn’t… die.
After sending the doctor off, Xu Qingzhi didn’t go upstairs. Instead, she went to the kitchen and went upstairs with a fruit platter. She sat on the chair beside the bed and ate fruits while looking at her phone.
The rustling sound was especially clear in the room. Xu Qingzhi looked at her email and flipped through a few documents. She checked the progress of the company’s various projects over the past two days. There were no major problems, so she began to surf the Internet again.
A similar topic of Young Master Li rushing to the hospital in the middle of the night appeared online.
Xu Qingzhi frowned. How boring was the media nowadays? They had to report everything that happened in the hospital?
Did Fanxing focus her attention on them because she had been nursing her pregnancy peacefully?
Since Li Mo had gone to the hospital in the middle of the night, she was naturally among them. Many of them were targeting her.
That included the two of them fighting, Xu Qingzhi plotting against her husband, and even taking revenge on Li Mo.
Some of the comments were indeed unpleasant, but she had received Fanxing’s teachings and it was easy for her to ignore them.
Some people directly said that the two of them were the modern version of Pan Jinlian and Wu Dalang, or that she was the Second Lady Sun that no one dared to provoke. She had become a legend in Water Margin.
She couldn’t help but chuckle. The doctor wasn’t the only one who had such thoughts.
Li Mo glanced at her coldly. “What are you laughing at?”
He couldn’t eat now, yet she insisted on eating everything in front of him. This damn woman…
“Do you think I’m Sun Erniang or Pan Jinlian?”
Li Mo’s eyebrows twitched. “Why? Are you trying to kill me or poison me to be with another man?”
Xu Qingzhi ate the apple and asked, “Do you want to become a human bun or be poisoned to death?”
Li Mo took a deep breath and said, “Shut up, lest I jump up and strangle you!”
Xu Qingzhi didn’t say anything else. As she ate the fruits, the room fell silent again.
There was only a rustling sound and the occasional soft gulp when she swallowed.
Li Mo only had plain porridge for breakfast and it was light. As he watched Xu Qingzhi eat, his mouth kept salivating.
“… Is it sweet?” After a long while, Limo suddenly asked.
Xu Qingzhi turned to look at him. A few seconds later, she smiled and said, “You want to eat?”
Looking at her, Li Mo narrowed his eyes slightly. “Come here and let me have a taste.”
“No, it’s cold.”
“…”
“I’m bored. Come and chat with me.”
“I’m not covering your mouth now. We can chat.”
“Xu Qingzhi, you’re disobedient again?”
Xu Qingzhi was speechless.
Li Mo lifted the blanket with one hand and patted the empty space beside him. “Hurry up and eat here. It’s warm here.”
Xu Qingzhi was speechless.
The corners of her lips twitched. Did he treat her as a three-year-old child?
“Hurry up!”
Seeing that she didn’t move, Li Mo patted her again and urged her in a low voice.
Xu Qingzhi took a piece of apple and placed it in her mouth. She chewed slowly and looked at him for a few seconds. Then, she stood up and went to bed.
Only then did Li Mo’s expression improve. Seeing her sit properly, he wrapped the blanket around her shoulders.
Then, he looked at her and said, “Eat.”
Xu Qingzhi stared at him blankly for a while before Li Mo stuffed a grape into her mouth.
Xu Qingzhi was forced to open her mouth. The moment the grape entered her mouth, it overflowed with juice. The sweetness and sweetness of the fruit filled her mouth.
“Is it good?” Li Mo asked her.
Xu Qingzhi nodded.
Li Mo glanced at the fruit platter in her arms. “Let me try…”
Just as she reached out, Xu Qingzhi placed the plate aside.
She looked at him warily. “You can’t eat it now!”
Li Mo frowned. “I won’t swallow it!”
Xu Qingzhi hesitated for half a second before shaking her head firmly. “No! This is too cold!”
Li Mo gritted his teeth. “What a heartless woman!”
Xu Qingzhi covered her mouth and laughed. “It’s only been less than a day and you can’t even hold it in? There are still a few days to go.”
Li Mo’s face darkened. “Who do you think caused this?”
Xu Qingzhi took another bite of the apple. “Of course it’s you. You brought this upon yourself…”
“Xu Qingzhi!”
Xu Qingzhi nodded. “Yes, I’m here…”
As she responded, she propped herself up and suddenly leaned towards Li Mo.
Limo retreated and glared at her. “What are you doing?”
Xu Qingzhi smiled and said, “I’m just afraid that you’ll get greedy. If you can’t eat it, I can let you smell it. Hmm… I’ll let you smell it…”
Xu Qingzhi inched closer to him, and the faint scent of her body wafted into his nose. When she spoke, there was indeed a faint fruity scent.
Li Mo’s face stiffened. He stared at her for a while before saying in disdain, “Stay away from me…”
“What else do you want to smell? I’ll eat it for you!”
“Xu Qingzhi, you’re disgusting. Stay away from me… Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude to you!”
Xu Qingzhi raised an eyebrow and glanced at his hand. Her lips twitched and she looked fearless.
It was obvious that she was relying on the fact that he couldn’t move freely now.
“Orange is ready!” Xu Qingzhi took the initiative to pick up an orange and put it in her mouth.
The orange tasted stronger than other fruits. The moment she bit into it, it smelled especially sweet.
Especially when Xu Qingzhi gave him a mischievous sigh.
Li Mo deliberately choked and glared at her. “Xu Qingzhi!”
It was rare for Xu Qingzhi to be in a good mood. She raised an eyebrow and teased, “Huh? You don’t like oranges? Then let’s have another one…”
It was rare for her to have the chance to torture Limo. Otherwise, she would be a fool!
As she spoke, she picked up another orange and placed it in her mouth.
She narrowed her eyes and smiled at Li Mo, full of provocation and schadenfreude.
“Xu Qingzhi, I’ll say it one last time. Stay away from me!”
Seeing that Li Mo was really angry, Xu Qingzhi didn’t dare to repeat herself. “Alright, alright…”
Good my ass!
Li Mo cursed in his heart. He grabbed the back of Xu Qingzhi’s head and pressed her down, capturing her lips accurately.
Xu Qingzhi’s eyes widened in surprise. She didn’t expect Limo to suddenly change his mind and attack her!
She froze for two seconds and instinctively wanted to push him away. However, Li Mo beat her to it and started to snatch the orange from her mouth.
Xu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment before she rejected him. However, Li Mo ignored her and exerted more force on her, insisting on snatching Xu Qingzhi’s orange.
Xu Qingzhi struggled but to no avail. She only knew that she couldn’t let Limo successfully eat her orange. She could only try her best to push Limo away. After a while, the two of them started a battle for a piece of orange.
However, even after a long time, the two of them didn’t separate.
War had changed.
The atmosphere in the room started to turn awkward.
Knowing that Xu Qingzhi was uncomfortable, Li Mo let go of her.
Their breathing was a little chaotic. Xu Qing retreated and sat on the bed weakly.
Her face was flushed and her eyes were filled with tears. Her breathing was heavy.
Li Mo stared at her intently, his eyes filled with obvious desire.
For a moment, Xu Qingzhi didn’t dare to look at Li Mo. She was so embarrassed that she didn’t know what to do. She could only divert her attention and casually pick up an apple to eat.
Li Mo suddenly reached out to hold her hand. Xu Qingzhi’s eyes trembled slightly as she looked up at him.
Her eyes flickered.
Li Mo pulled him gently, his eyes dark and his voice hoarse. “Continue.”
Xu Qingzhi’s eyes trembled again and her face turned red.
Li Mo urged in a hoarse voice, “Xu Qingzhi… hurry up…”
As he spoke, he tugged at her lightly.
Xu Qingzhi blushed and hesitated.
“If you don’t come, I’ll go…”
Li Mo was about to get up when Xu Qingzhi stopped him. “Don’t, be careful of the needles.”
“Then I want more! Come here!”
Xu Qingzhi was speechless for a long time. Seeing that Li Mo was about to get up again, she hurriedly got up and went up to him to fulfill his wish.
Li Mo smirked smugly. This woman’s worry for him was too obvious.
However, as their interaction gradually seeped in, Li Mo began to feel vexed.
It was a pity that it was inconvenient for him now. Otherwise… Hmph!
When he recovered, he would do whatever he wanted.
However, it wasn’t long before the doorbell rang again.
Xu Qingzhi had a reason to end this embarrassing conversation. She pushed him away and went downstairs while covering her swollen red lips.
Her face was so hot that she felt like she was on fire.
Walking downstairs, she waved her hand to fan her face. Feeling that it was enough, she took a deep breath before opening the door.
At the door were Old Lady Li and Qiao Zhilan.
“Zhizhi, how’s Limo? We went to the hospital and said that he was discharged… Is he incurable? The hospital sent him home to wait… to arrange his funeral?”
Xu Qingzhi was speechless.
Qiao Zhilan didn’t look too good. “Mom, what are you talking about?!”
Old Lady Li replied with an “oh” and slapped herself twice. “Look at my foul mouth…”
Xu Qingzhi welcomed the two of them in. “Grandma, Mom, don’t worry. Limo is fine. He just doesn’t want to be alone in the hospital. The doctor is at home giving him an IV drip.”
Only then did the expressions on their faces relax.
At this moment, Li Mo was relishing the sweetness of Xu Qingzhi. The door opened and the old lady and Qiao Zhilan entered. He couldn’t help but frown.
“Why are you guys here?”
Old Lady Li frowned unhappily. “Not now. Can I only visit you when you’re dead?”
“Mom!” Qiao Zhilan was so angry that she was about to cry. Why did she keep saying such unlucky things?
The old lady said impatiently, “Don’t call me Mommy all the time. My mouth isn’t blessed! If it’s effective, I would have become a queen long ago!”
Qiao Zhilan was speechless.
Xu Qingzhi was speechless. So Grandma had the dream of being a queen?
The old lady walked towards Limo and sized him up before pursing her lips. “Aren’t I fine?”
Qiao Zhilan leaned over worriedly and asked softly, “Limo, are you alright?”
Li Mo pursed his lips. “I’m fine.”
“Why did she suddenly end up in the hospital?”
Xu Qingzhi glanced at Li Mo and whispered, “Mom, it’s actually me…”
“This is indeed her fault!” Li Mo suddenly interrupted her. The old lady and Qiao Zhilan looked at Xu Qingzhi in confusion.
Xu Qingzhi paused and nodded. “Yes… indeed…”
“Last night, her food was too fragrant. I ate her food when she wasn’t paying attention… This woman is sick. The dishes are spicy and sour…”
Slap! Slap! Slap! The old lady slapped his shoulder heavily.
“You’re crazy! You’re crazy! Who are you calling crazy?! Brat, you’re the one who’s greedy for other people’s food and even called them crazy. You’re the one who deserves a beating!”
