Chapter 174 Jealousy Makes You Repulsive
Chapter 174 Jealousy Makes You Repulsive
Zhong Lingxi saw Ji's father and mother standing on either side of the hospital bed. One of them was touching Ji Yubai's forehead, while the other was pinching the flesh on Ji Yubai's face.
Ji Yubai's cry of pain burst forth, and he had no time to retract it.
“I…” Zhong Lingxi hesitated, then silently closed the door, leaving the family of three alone.
Ji Yubai shouted, "Lingxi, save me!"
The bathroom door opened again, and Zhong Lingxi poked her head out. "How do we save her?"
At the same time, the hand that was on Ji Yubai belatedly withdrew.
"Hehe~" The two elders smiled shyly at Zhong Lingxi.
Zhong Lingxi didn't know what had happened, so she could only force a smile.
Ji's mother: "Lingxi..."
"Mom, ask me what's wrong." Ji Yubai propped himself up, interrupting his mother.
If her mother is too enthusiastic, Lingxi will definitely not be able to handle it.
Ji's mother saw through her son's thoughts at a glance, and then changed the subject, saying, "What I wanted to say is that Lingxi looks really good in this outfit. She's taller than me, so she can really pull it off."
Ji Yubai tossed his white hair back, like a proud peacock, and said, "That is the person your son has his eye on."
Ji's mother scoffed at him, "Dream on! What does Lingxi's good figure have to do with you?"
Knowing Ji Yubai's thoughts, the two elders didn't talk to Zhong Lingxi any longer and instead urged her to have breakfast.
After the doctor made his rounds, the nurse removed all the monitoring equipment from Ji Yubai's body and drew three tubes of blood for testing.
Judging from the current situation, there shouldn't be any major problems.
Zhong Lingxi: "Uncle, Auntie, I'm going to the company to submit some documents first. My flight back to Luzhou is at noon."
"The car is downstairs, I'll have the driver take you there." Mr. Ji took out his phone and called the driver.
"Thank you, Uncle and Auntie, I'm leaving now." Zhong Lingxi felt relieved, and her tone became much lighter.
Ji's mother: "Okay, when you come back to Beijing next time, Auntie will invite you out to play again."
Zhong Lingxi happily agreed.
With the two elders present, Ji Yubai felt too embarrassed to even ask for a hug, and could only watch helplessly as Zhong Lingxi flew away like a beautiful butterfly.
Zhong Lingxi didn't have time to meet with An Xiaoyue either, she just sent An Xiaoyue a message.
[Xiaoyue, I've finished my work and gone back to Luzhou. I'll come visit you when I'm done with my work.]
An Xiaoyue was taking a break between classes when Hua Lan, class monitor Zhou Ping, and Cheng Zhuoli sat in a row with her, quietly discussing the medical skills competition.
Her mind wasn't on Zhong Lingxi's message; she simply replied, "Okay, everything went smoothly."
She didn't ask too many questions about Zhong Lingxi and Ji Yubai, since Fu Shengyang had gone to the hospital and he would tell her when he got back.
Zhong Lingxi only found out about her upcoming marriage to Ji Yubai after he was discharged from the hospital and helped his mother deliver pastries to Fu Garden.
The afternoon sun shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled light and shadow on the book, sometimes bright, sometimes dim.
An Xiaoyue's fingers flew, applying even force, and with a flick of her fingers, a surgical triple knot was tied.
Ji Yubai felt her hands move in this way, that way, and then in that way again, and in the blink of an eye, a rope was obediently tied together.
Ji Yubai asked in confusion, "Sister-in-law, are you knitting some new kind of yarn?"
"Bang~"
"what!"
Ji Yubai winced in pain, clutching his head with both hands, and glared defiantly at Fu Shengyang, "Brother Shengyang, why did you hit my head?"
Fu Shengyang put down the book in his hand and teased him, "I'm trying to cram the knowledge from the book into your brain."
Ji Yubai retorted, "I've studied for over twenty years and am a standard full-time undergraduate student. If my mother hadn't been reluctant to let me go abroad and suffer, I could definitely have gotten a master's degree. Why would I need you to cram knowledge into my head?"
Fu Shengyang shook his head and sighed, looking at him like he was a fool, "How narrow-minded. It's a real hardship for Attorney Zhong."
Upon mentioning Zhong Lingxi, Ji Yubai became serious. "Why?"
How come Lingxi suffered because she followed him?
Fu Shengyang: "Xiaoyue tied a surgical knot, like yarn. I think you look like a lump of yarn, and I want to hit you."
Ji Yubai chuckled apologetically, "Sorry, sister-in-law, please don't tell Lingxi about this."
An Xiaoyue glanced at him, "I won't tell you, Lingxi isn't interested in your affairs."
"No way!" Ji Yubai said proudly. "She video chats with me every night."
An Xiaoyue didn't believe it. "How could that be?"
To prove that what he said was true, Ji Yubai took the initiative to show Zhong Lingxi his chat history, saying, "Little sister-in-law, look."
The chat history does show that there were video calls every day, ranging from a few minutes to more than an hour.
An Xiaoyue stared in disbelief, "When did you two become so close?"
"Click!" Ji Yubai loved seeing people's dumbfounded expressions.
He told Zhong Lingxi and his story to everyone he knew, and everyone looked surprised.
The more surprised everyone was, the prouder he became.
That way they will remember that Zhong Lingxi is going to be Ji Yubai's wife.
"Hmph~" Ji Yubai hummed smugly.
An Xiaoyue looked at Fu Shengyang for confirmation, "Is it true?"
"Yes."
Why didn't you tell me?
Fu Shengyang: "It's not important."
"How can it not be important!" Ji Yubai sat up in surprise. "It concerns my brother's happiness, and you actually think it's not important?"
Ji Yubai bristled and circled around Fu Shengyang. "Oh, I see. You and your sister-in-law don't have any romance, and you don't exchange sweet nothings every day. You're jealous of me. You can't stand that I have someone to talk to me for so long every day! Jealousy makes you repulsive!"
Fu Shengyang chuckled and said sarcastically, "My Xiaoyue is by my side every day, and besides, we're married."
Ji Yubai deflated instantly, like a frostbitten eggplant.
An Xiaoyue couldn't help but laugh.
If Lingxi were here, Ji Yubai would probably be tearing the roof off and telling Fu Shengyang that he also has Lingxi by his side.
Unfortunately, Lingxi was on a business trip in Luzhou.
Ji Yubai dared to let Fu Shengyang interfere in the affairs of Changfeng Group's legal department and pestered Fu Shengyang to transfer Zhong Lingxi back, but he didn't dare to say a word of reluctance about Lingxi's work.
Lingxi said that her most important task now is her work, and she needs to become capable of handling things independently as soon as possible.
Seeing his aggrieved expression, and looking at the plate of Longjing pastries in front of him, An Xiaoyue asked, "President Ji, did you come here today just for this?"
"Yes, this is the happiest thing for me."
An Xiaoyue: "I'm happy for you too."
Ji Yubai felt that his sister-in-law was being a little perfunctory, but he still wanted to thank her for telling Lingxi about his illness. Otherwise, how could he have seen Lingxi, and how could so many good things have happened later?
Feeling grateful to An Xiaoyue, Ji Yubai asked, "Little sister-in-law, what do you want most right now?"
"Sleep on your stomach." The doctor said that in late pregnancy, you should lie on your left side, which helps relieve pressure on the uterine artery and allows for normal blood circulation.
Therefore, every time she goes to sleep, she desperately wants to sleep on her stomach.
Ji Yubai's gaze fell on her prominently protruding belly. He couldn't do that. "Anything else?"
An Xiaoyue cooperated with him and solemnly replied, "I want to give birth to the child without feeling anything and be a mother without pain."
Ji Yubai died suddenly!
He wailed, "Sister-in-law, please tell me something I can do? I sincerely want to thank you."
An Xiaoyue thought for a moment, then said even more seriously than Ji Yubai:
"Mr. Ji, if you really want to thank me, please go home now. I'm participating in a skills competition tomorrow. Let me prepare properly and systematically, okay?"
Ji Yubai pouted, looking extremely aggrieved, "You all dislike me."
An Xiaoyue:......
She just wanted to stop the noise in her ears.
"I'm going to tell Lingxi!" he said angrily as he stormed off.
An Xiaoyue and Fu Shengyang were left staring at his retreating figure, looking at each other in bewilderment.
He got out of breath when you called him fat!
