Chapter 167: Greedy for this kind of warmth
“Guard this place. Without my order, no one is allowed to stay here. Do you understand?”
Li Jingming’s cold eyes fell on the corner of the corridor, without a trace of emotion.
“Especially Chi Jianming.”
He felt that it was a little suspicious that Chi Kexi had fallen asleep like this. Before everything became clear, Chi Jianming and Li Lijuan were the people he had to be especially wary of.
They might come to cause trouble at this time, especially when he was overwhelmed by both sides.
“Yes.”
Secretary yang nodded slightly and stood at the door of the operating room like a rock.
He had never objected to li Jingming’s words and would carry out any order truthfully.
“I’ll be waiting in her Ward. Let me know if anything happens.”
Li Jingming was well aware of the severity of the situation in the operating room. However, what worried him even more was the unconscious Chi yaoxi.
Fortunately, the ward he had arranged for Chi Kexi was not far from the operating room, so she could come over at any time if something happened.
In the ward, a nurse had just finished examining Chi Kexi and was about to cover her with a blanket.
Li Jingming waved his hand gently, silently indicating for her to leave first.
He sat on the edge of the bed and held Chi Yuexi’s hand that was outside the blanket.
This pair of hands were soft as if they had no bones, and the back of the hands was as flawless as white jade. He couldn’t help but think of the advertisement Chi Luoxi had taken before. The camera had scanned every inch of her body, and she had been so perfect.
She didn’t know why the heavens had the heart to let her suffer so much.
Chi Yuexi’s eyelashes quivered slightly. She opened her eyes slowly with a look of confusion unique to those who just woke up.
She only vaguely remembered some of the memories before she fell asleep, and when she woke up, she was full of anxiety.
“I ... How did I fall asleep?”
The first person Chi Yuexi saw was li Jingming, who was by the bedside.
His presence instantly dispelled the remaining fear in her heart.
However, this peace of mind only lasted for a few seconds before her heart clenched again.
Where’s grandma?
“Li Jingming, where’s my grandmother? She, she’s fine, right?”
She grabbed li Jingming’s sleeve so hard that his suit jacket was almost deformed.
She didn’t know how long she had been asleep, nor did she know why she was here.
What if she woke up and found that something had really happened to grandma?
She knew that her grandmother didn’t have much time left, but at least, at least it wouldn’t be too late to receive this bad news when she was ready!
“I’m fine, I’m fine. ”
Li Jingming patted her back, indicating that she shouldn’t be so anxious.
“I’ve asked the doctor to examine her, and he said she’s fine. However, you can’t visit her now. Can you go to sleep?”
He couldn’t bear to see her wake up to such urgent news, so he had to tell a small lie.
The operating room estimated that it would be over in another one or two hours.
The doctor had said that this time, the situation wasn’t very critical. Chi Yuexi’s grandmother had to go to the operating table because of a brain tumor.
“But I remember that grandma isn ‘t?”
Chi Luoxi wasn’t so easily fooled by him. Her worry for her grandmother was more than anything else. She lifted her blanket and ran out of the door.
“Don’t worry. That’s right. Grandma was in the operating room.”
Li Jingming quickly stopped her and pressed her shoulder to sit back on the bed.
“But the doctor said that it’s too late to visit.”
It was already dark outside, and time had slipped away quietly while she was asleep.
Chi Yuexi forced herself to calm down.”How long have I been sleeping?” And why did I fall asleep?”
How did she fall asleep out of the blue?
It wasn’t like she had never stayed up late to film before, so she wasn’t so delicate. Besides, she had regular physical examinations, so it shouldn’t be a problem with her body.
Then whose problem was it? What was wrong with her?
The remnants of the sleeping pills in her body had more or less affected her emotions, and she was much more fragile than usual.
“I’ll get the doctor to do a check up on you later. Don’t let your thoughts run wild.”
Li Jingming sat closer to her and tried to speak to her in a soft voice.
He had always been cold and unruly in front of others, but he only coaxed Chi Kexi like she was a child.
Apart from his grandmother’s true condition, he didn’t want Chi Yuexi to suspect the real reason why he had fallen asleep.
She had already carried the burden
“What about grandma?”
Li Jingming’s tone was too gentle, and she couldn’t help but want to lean on Him.
Before he could answer, her eyes had already turned red.
Her happy childhood memories all came from her grandmother.
Chi Jianming was too embarrassed to talk about his daughter. Every time, it was her grandmother who protected her and told her how kind and kind her mother was.
She had just gained the ability to let her grandmother enjoy her old age, and she didn’t want to say goodbye to her forever.
Chi Yuexi bit her lips hard as tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes silently.
“Grandma is my only family left ...”
“Listen to me,”
Li Jingming held her face tenderly and gently wiped away her tears.
“You still have me and Chenchen. We’ll be by your side.”
“But that’s different. Grandma ...” Chi Yuexi started sobbing again at the thought of this.
She couldn’t imagine the day her grandmother would suddenly pass away, let alone her illness. It was more likely that she had been angered by Chi Jianming and the others.
“You know about grandma’s condition.”
Li Jingming’s face suddenly turned serious. He stared into her eyes and said in a deep voice,”life and death are determined by fate. It’s impossible that you don’t understand this principle.”
“But I promise you, I won’t let go of the people who hurt you!”
Chi Yuexi looked at him in a daze, as if this was her first day knowing this man.
But between them, it was clearly already the most intimate relationship.
With him around, she was indeed stronger than before.
She didn’t know if it was because of li Jingming’s tenacity, but after getting along with him day after day, it had gradually passed on to her.
“Thank you,” she said.
Only then did she realize that the distance between the two of them was a little too close.
Just now, her entire body was curled up in li Jingming’s arms. One of his hands naturally wrapped around her waist, and the other hand was intertwined with her fingers.
For a moment, she was actually a little greedy for this warmth.
“Have a good sleep. I promise I’ll take you to see grandma tomorrow.”
Li Jingming didn’t feel any disgust towards this intimate position. On the contrary, he felt that it was quite natural.
He lowered his head and planted a kiss on Chi Yuexi’s forehead. Chi Yuexi’s already red face turned even redder.
“Yes.”
Chi Yuexi lowered her head and responded in a low voice, but she still did not let go.
She didn’t really want li Jingming to leave at this time.
Li Jingming seemed to have seen through her thoughts and chuckled softly above her head.
“I’m a little tired, can you rest with me?”
He couldn’t wait for Chi Kexi to answer him. He hugged her and leaned against the bed.
Chi Yuexi buried her face in his arms and smiled silently.
