Chapter 851 - 832: You Didn’t Sleep Well Last Night
Hospital.
Mo Bai said to have Lou Xi eat something light, so she’ll eat something light.
Alright, she’ll eat light, but could he please not eat a lavish feast of gourmet delicacies in his room?
Lou Xi ate tasteless porridge, glaring at Mo Bai sitting at the table eating braised pig trotters, steamed turbot, crystal shrimp... The man receiving her gaze glanced at her, then lowered his head and continued slowly eating the delicacies in front of him.
Not caring even a bit about Lou Xi’s gaze!
Is there anyone this shameless?
So that night, Lou Xi, who didn’t get to eat anything good, got angry with Mo Bai, and the man keeping her company took a long time to console her, but to no avail.
It’s his mistake, and he must accept the consequences, even if on his knees.
So Mo Bai slept on the sofa all night; let’s see if he dares to eat delicious food in front of her again without offering her any!
Early the next morning, Su Lin came by.
Mo Bai got up from the sofa, did a quick wash-up, and met Su Lin in the outside reception room.
"President Qin, didn’t you sleep well either?" Su Lin looked at Mo Bai with a slightly unwell complexion, a bit weary.
Can a man nearly 190cm tall sleep well on a sofa?
"Why are you here so early?" Mo Bai avoided the topic of fatigue.
"You didn’t go to work yesterday, so I came to report some company affairs to you."
"A phone call would have sufficed." The implication was that Su Lin didn’t need to come over in person.
Su Lin didn’t want to come either, but last night he had inexplicable insomnia, so he got up early today, and since he had nothing else to do, he came to the hospital to see Mo Bai, bringing breakfast for Mo Bai as well.
Mo Bai looked at the table full of sumptuous breakfast, remembering how because of the dinner issue last night, Lou Xi made him sleep on the sofa.
If he had a nice breakfast again, while letting Lou Xi drink porridge, he couldn’t imagine what she’d do to him.
"Take these away." Mo Bai frowned.
"Why? Isn’t this what you and your wife like to eat?"
"..." Mo Bai said nothing, his expression darkened.
This action made Su Lin feel the threat from his boss, so he nodded decisively.
But thinking that Lou Xi hadn’t gotten up yet, Mo Bai went over and opened the takeaway food box.
It was the breakfast Su Lin often bought for him, he picked up chopsticks and ate quickly.
While he ate, Su Lin briefly talked to him about company matters.
"If you’re returning to Qin Family, would President Lu be responsible? The handover will take some time. When can you return to work? Waiting for your wife’s recovery?"
Upon mentioning Lou Xi’s health, Mo Bai’s brows furrowed unconsciously, and he put down his chopsticks.
Suddenly, he lost his appetite.
"The time is likely to be long." Mo Bai’s brows furrowed tightly.
From Mo Bai’s expression, Su Lin could tell Lou Xi’s illness wasn’t simple, possibly very troublesome.
"What’s wrong with your wife?"
The chopsticks in Mo Bai’s hand suddenly snapped, an extremely angry expression.
"The doctor said Lou Xi has difficulty getting pregnant." Mo Bai said in a deep voice, "Xi Siwei injected Lou Xi with excessive sedative, damaging her health."
"Medical science is very advanced now; they’ll surely cure your wife. You will definitely have children!" Words of comfort are easy to say, but whether the wish can be fulfilled is another matter.
Neither of them noticed the hospital room door softly closing.
