Upon hearing Mo Jinyu’s fierce words, Chu Xici gave a helpless smile.

"It’s my own arm, I can feel it myself."

Mo Jinyu shook his head.

"I’m telling you, you may think a bone fracture isn’t serious, but if not treated in time, it could become a big problem, displace, and cause major troubles! Don’t underestimate it like it’s nothing, and don’t brush off a fracture! Be careful, or you’ll end up disabled and without a girl willing to marry you!"

Chu Xici: "..."

Mo Jinyu sighed loudly:

"I’m really at a loss with you! Besides, it’s just one exam. Is Yege’s mental resilience that weak? And anyway, what does one exam prove? Even if this one doesn’t go well, it doesn’t mean future ones won’t? What are you thinking? Honestly, hiding your injury from little Yege, it’s just...

Oh dear, why haven’t I met such a considerate, caring person like you? Tell you what, if there’s a next life, I’ll swap places with Yege!"

Chu Xici glanced at Mo Jinyu.

"No swap! I don’t like an attention-seeking brother!"

Mo Jinyu: "Geez, Chu Xici, being your brother is an honor, and you dare to complain about me!"

Mo Jinyu was quite hurt.

"I really give up on you! Pampering her, you’ve taken it to the level of spoiling a wife! Little Yege is just way too lucky!"

Chu Xici gave a faint smile and stayed silent.

Pampering a wife?

Hearing Mo Jinyu say that, Chu Xici’s heart... well, felt a bit sweet.

Mo Jinyu continued: "Chu Xici, I think you should tone it down a bit. You spoil Yege to such a degree, honestly, better than all other men out there, and this will make Yege overly selective, her standards sky-high.

Think about it, with someone in the family treating her like a treasure, but later, will she find a man like that? If she uses you as the standard in choosing a boyfriend and evaluates future prospects... you can imagine, very few would pass!

In this case, Yege would be in trouble... nobody could meet her standards and requirements, so she wouldn’t truly feel happy in her heart! Even if she gets married someday, she might feel aggrieved!

The better you treat her now, the higher Yege’s expectations for a future boyfriend, and for men, this is a fatal blow! Besides, little Yege, this little Princess, definitely isn’t someone who would make compromises, so... oh dear, it’s problematic! Be careful, Yege might truly not find a boyfriend, might not get married!"

At noon, Yege, as usual, ate with her classmates in the school’s cafeteria instead of going home.

After finishing her exams in the afternoon, Yege went home and only saw Lin Yuenong there; Chu Xici was absent.

"Mom, where’s Chu Xici?" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

At this time, he should be off work, right?

However, they’re always incredibly busy in the days leading up to the New Year holiday, so Yege is quite accustomed to it.

Lin Yuenong smiled and said, "Well, he should still be busy at the office! By the way, he went to the hospital this morning, said he took a fall last night, and has some bone fractures on his elbow. Seriously, I don’t know how he managed that, being such a grown man and still falling over while walking!"

Yege’s heart trembled violently; suddenly, it felt very sour.

Arm... already fractured?

Yet, last night, he was comforting her, saying... it was fine!

This guy! He actually kept it from her, not wanting her to know!
