My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 183 - 180 Brother Will Help You 1
Chapter 183: Chapter 180 Brother Will Help You 1
Her jet-black soft hair made her look even more pitiable.
Sitting on the sofa, she said nothing, but looked down at her own hands.
"Drink it." He Bainian heated a cup of milk and handed it to her.
"Brother, have you seen her?" He Nuoxin asked softly, her whole being like a wandering soul.
He Bainian was silent, naturally knowing who "her" referred to in He Nuoxin’s words.
"I covered for you tonight, but you must promise me, there can never be a second time!"
He Bainian rarely spoke to He Nuoxin in such a firm tone.
He Nuoxin looked up in a daze.
"Brother, what makes her better than me?"
Her pretty features were like a porcelain doll, but without a trace of vitality.
"He Nuoxin!" He Bainian growled low, mixed with anger.
He Nuoxin’s eyes gradually focused on He Bainian’s face and suddenly she gave a soft smile.
"Brother, I’m hungry."
He Bainian tightly pressed his lips, yet a string in his heart was continuously tense.
"I’ll order food."
Even though it was already past four in the early morning, the hotel always provides special 24-hour service for the presidential suite.
He Bainian walked to the landline, back facing He Nuoxin, about to press the front desk button.
Suddenly, he heard a smash behind him and turned around abruptly.
He saw that the glass cup he had just handed to his sister for milk had already been shattered...
At this moment, she was picking up the largest shard, poised to slash it violently across her palm!
"Nuoxin!" He Bainian, unable to care about anything else, turned to snatch the broken glass from her hand.
"Have you had enough of this drama?"
He Bainian was furious, the broken glass had punctured deeply into his palm.
Bright red blood flowed through his fingers, dripping onto the floor.
Seeing the blood, He Nuoxin wailed and collapsed into her brother’s arms, crying so hard she could barely breathe.
"Yannan is mine... he’s mine... brother..."
He Bainian stood in front of her, the searing pain from his palm failing to distract him.
He Nuoxin’s delicate little face was already smeared with tears, looking both fearful and aggrieved.
"Don’t cry."
He Bainian looked down and said softly to her.
"Brother, you said you would help me..."
He Nuoxin panted anxiously, as if she could no longer breathe, clutching tightly to the front of He Bainian’s shirt.
He Bainian looked down at her.
If it hadn’t been for his disdain for their stepmother moving in, how could Nuoxin have been secretly abused for so long without anyone knowing?
If not for him, how would she have met Li Yanan?
"Nuoxin, brother will help you."
"Brother... will help you..."
The next morning.
When Lin Zhenxin woke up, the bed beside her was still warm.
Half-asleep, she instinctively searched and quickly spotted Li Yanan’s figure.
Barefoot, she got out of bed, her ankle still a bit sore, but much better than the day before.
"What are you looking at?" Lin Zhenxin poked her head out from the side of the balcony door.
Li Yanan’s thin lips curved slightly, as if he had already heard her stirring, and he gestured for Lin Zhenxin to come over.
Lin Zhenxin couldn’t hide her curiosity and slowly walked over.
As soon as she got close, she was already in Li Yanan’s arms.
"Is your foot better?" Li Yanan reached out and gently smoothed her tangled hair.
Lin Zhenxin’s hair was very fine and soft, feeling like silk to the touch.
She nodded slightly, followed by a yawn.
She hadn’t slept well last night, still feeling an inexplicable restlessness.
"Look over there."
Nestled in Li Yanan’s chest, she followed the direction of his finger, and a patch of red caught her eye.
After a moment, Lin Zhenxin looked up in surprise.
On the small green tomato plant, there was one that was already fully ripe.
"What a pity there’s only the one."
Li Yanan’s voice carried regret.
Hearing this, Lin Zhenxin seemed to be thinking about something, and soon after, she reached out and picked the small tomato.
Li Yanan raised an eyebrow, watching her clip the small tomato between her lips.
At this moment, Lin Zhenxin didn’t look a bit like she had just woken up.
Her bright black eyes looked straight at him.
With such an obvious hint, if Li Yanan didn’t understand, he would truly be a fool.
He leaned down and bit the other half of the tomato.
The fruit wasn’t large to begin with, and the rich juice flowed out, staining both their mouths.
It was sour, astringent.
Lin Zhenxin subconsciously made a bitter face, never expecting that something that looked so beautiful...
Would taste so peculiar in reality!
Li Yanan, however, laughed happily.
His unmatched handsome face was now at a captivating level.
Seeing this, Lin Zhenxin softly mumbled something.
"What did you say?" The next moment, Li Yanan wrapped an arm around her waist and lifted her up.
Her body suddenly suspended in the air, Lin Zhenxin let out a startled cry.
Instinctively, she put her arms around his neck.
"I said you’re a demon!" When Lin Zhenxin steadied herself, she defiantly pinched the flesh on the side of Li Yanan’s cheek.
Li Yanan couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Probably only she dared to act like this with him in the whole world.
Supporting her by the upper thighs, he looked up at Lin Zhenxin bathed in the morning light.
That fair doll-like face made him reluctant to look away.
As they were playfully interacting, Li Yanan’s phone suddenly rang loudly.
Li Yanan’s brow furrowed.
Lin Zhenxin intended to get down, but to her surprise, Li Yanan slapped her thigh root, indicating for her to stay still.
With one arm holding her steadily, he took the phone with the other hand and answered it.
After just listening to a few sentences, his expression suddenly turned serious.
"I’ll be there right away." He said and hung up the phone.
"What’s wrong?" Lin Zhenxin noticed his unusual expression, and the next second Li Yanan also let her down.
"Something’s up with Brother Jiang."
Li Yanan pondered before saying.
"Come with me."
Lin Zhenxin looked surprised, something happened with Jiang Dongting, and she should go along?
Li Chengze stood in front of the mirror in the dressing room.
The hilt of his jaw wedged, he looked at the noticeable slap mark on his side profile.
——Li Chengze, you’re so childish! Pull over; I’m getting out!
——No matter how many times I have to say it! Li Chengze, you’re childish, you’re very childish, you’re childish to the extreme!
Li Chengze suddenly smirked.
Yet, when he caught this scene through the dressing mirror, his expression sank again.
Originally, he thought Tu Haohao was easy to handle, but he never expected...
She was more like a cat hiding its claws.
Adjusting his tie, he returned to his usual demeanor, as if that smile earlier was just an illusion.
Leaving the room, Li Chengze habitually walked downstairs.
Today was different from the past; downstairs, he could hear his mother’s happy voice.
Ever since Mia was sent to the mental hospital, there had been no joy in this house.
With confusion in his eyes, Li Chengze slowly descended the spiral staircase.
Soon, the figure sitting in the hall came into his view.
Causing him to suddenly show an astonished expression...
Li Yanan drove steadily and quickly.
Even during the morning rush hour, Li Yanan could still carve out a path through the traffic, reaching their destination as fast as possible.
But...
Lin Zhenxin looked through the front windshield at the direction sign for the central hospital’s emergency room.
Did something happen?
With worry tugging at her, she got out of the car soon after Li Yanan did.
At the end of the long corridor of the emergency room stood a tall figure.
Even at first glance, Lin Zhenxin recognized Jiang Dongting.
Different from the proud coldness when they met in Vietnam, Jiang Dongting’s face, even now without expression, couldn’t cover up...
Yet Lin Zhenxin could still detect something through the subtle details.
"Brother Jiang." Li Yanan spoke in a deep voice.
Jiang Dongting looked up; there was a stain of vomit on his chest.
According to Jiang Dongting’s personality, he couldn’t tolerate a bit of dirt, but now he didn’t seem to mind at all.
Did something happen to Chu Xingguang?
Lin Zhenxin’s heart tensed a bit.
"Yannan, Little Qilin has been vomiting, and I..."
Perhaps seeing a trusted brother, Jiang Dongting finally showed a trace of human vitality.
Li Yanan placed a single hand on Jiang Dongting’s shoulder, looked at the stain on his chest, his expression somber.
"I’ll go buy you a new shirt to change into; don’t worry too much."
After saying this, Li Yanan gave Lin Zhenxin a glance and then walked out.
"Brother Jiang, when did Little Qilin start vomiting?"
Jiang Dongting still had unwithdrawn confusion on his face, hearing Lin Zhenxin’s question, he spoke.
"Around five o’clock, kept vomiting, I..."
"Don’t worry, last night, did you give him anything to eat?"
Jiang Dongting fell silent, shifting his gaze to Lin Zhenxin’s face.
"Ice cream."
"And then?"
"Chocolate."
"Anything else?" All these sounded like things kids love to eat.
"Jelly."
"Watermelon."
Listening to Jiang Dongting list a string of food names, even though the doctor hadn’t come out yet, Lin Zhenxin already understood...
How Little Qilin ended up in the emergency room.
"Little Qilin... probably ate too much."
Lin Zhenxin gently reminded.
But Jiang Dongting looked at her in confusion, clearly not understanding.
"A child’s stomach is different from an adult’s. You fed him so much; it’s not surprising he would feel unwell."
Lin Zhenxin straightforwardly explained.
Jiang Dongting remained silent, unclear about his thoughts.
"Brother Jiang, don’t worry too much, he should be fine."
Lin Zhenxin was just speaking, when suddenly hurried footsteps came closer and closer.
Instinctively, she turned to look towards the source...
To see Chu Xingguang, with a cold face, walking straight towards Jiang Dongting.
Her entire focus was on Jiang Dongting, to the point she ignored Lin Zhenxin beside her.
In the time it took Lin Zhenxin to turn back, there was a loud slap sound.
Chu Xingguang’s slap had already landed heavily on Jiang Dongting’s face!
Perhaps the height difference was too much, the slap only heavily grazed his jaw, but even so...
Lin Zhenxin’s eyes widened in shock!
"Jiang Dongting, even if I’m begging you, stay away from Little Qilin and me!"
Chu Xingguang, carrying her heavy belly, her large eyes clear as crystal filled with tears, her chest heaving violently.
Jiang Dongting remained silent, looking down at Chu Xingguang.
He seemed like he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn’t. As if he wanted to reach out, but he didn’t.
Before she realized it, Chu Xingguang instinctively stepped back.
