Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 714 - 694 Problematic Inspection Results

Had enough?

So her asking him to send Xiaolei away—a sensible and perfectly reasonable request—was, in his eyes, nothing but a childish tantrum.

Jiayi couldn’t help but chuckle dismissively, too weary to even look at him and turning her face away.

His deep eyes narrowed, quickly catching the hint of mockery on her face, and he impatiently straightened her cheek: "What exactly do you want?"

She couldn’t resist his strength and was forced to tilt her face upward, staring straight at him, her pupils like a pair of frosty blades.

Hadn’t she already told him what she wanted?

She wanted him to send Xiaolei back to the country, but he refused.

Was there any need to repeat herself?

That would just make her feel even more undignified and pitiful in front of him.

If he was set on not listening, what use would it be for her to repeat herself a hundred times?

Since she couldn’t turn her face away, she averted her gaze and didn’t look at him—he couldn’t very well dig out his own eyes!

"Don’t want to talk to me, is that it?" His fingers tightened, his grip on her chin firm as he leaned in, intending to pry her mouth open with his lips and tongue.

Realizing what deplorable action he intended to take, she quickly pushed against his solid, sculpted chest to keep him at a distance and finally spoke up:

"I don’t want anything! Mind your image, Mr. Huo, this is a public place!"

Seeing her trying to escape, he increased the strength of his hold, pulling her forcefully into his embrace and against himself.

One hard, one soft, their two bodies instantly merged with zero distance, sticking together seamlessly.

His palm slipped down and supported her buttocks, pressing her firmly in his arms, jokingly saying, "What’s wrong with a public place? Haven’t we tried everything in public? Just a few days ago, weren’t we almost at your daddy and mommy’s wedding banquet—"

She was filled with mortified anger, having tried her utmost to forget that embarrassing event, and yet he deliberately brought it up: "Shut up! Don’t talk!"

Just as she was fuming at this man’s behavior, he was forcefully and domineeringly pulling her in closer in a way that humiliated her.

This man was using this method to tell her that even if she was giving him the cold shoulder, it was futile; physically, she always depended on him, even succumbed to him.

In life, she belonged to him, and in death, she would be his ghost; there was no escape.

Just then, a nurse finished arranging for Zaizai and came out of the room, catching sight of the scene outside. Startled, she almost dropped the medicine list in her arms.

But the man who was holding the woman looked over with a deep and unsatisfied gaze—it said, "Had your look, haven’t you? It’s free, right?"

The nurse swallowed hard, pretending not to see, and hurried off with the list in her arms.

Seizing the opportunity, Jiayi mustered all her strength to push him away, retreating a few steps.

She turned and walked toward the ward. Reaching the door, she stopped and, panting, turned back: "I will be at the hospital for the next two days accompanying Zaizai. I’m not coming back."

His brows and eyes immediately turned cold.

**

Over the next two days, Auntie Li would bring Zaizai nutritious soups every day to strengthen his constitution.

After staying in Renxin for two days, Zaizai found that being in the hospital wasn’t as scary as he had imagined, and he didn’t have to go to kindergarten either, so he stopped fussing to go home.

That evening, Auntie Li brought pork rib and pig trotter soup.

After Jiayi fed Zaizai, Auntie Li was picking up the bowl and looked at the lively young master: "Kids recover quickly, don’t they? He was swollen like a little baozi the other day, but now the swelling has almost gone down. By the looks of it, he should be able to be discharged, right?"

Jiayi knew Auntie Li wanted her to return home quickly, but since Zaizai’s injury had almost healed, there was no way to prolong their stay even if she wanted to.

She wiped Little Baozi’s mouth, "Mm, after the routine check-up, if there are no problems, he should be able to be discharged."

Auntie Li sighed, then hinted with a pout, "That would be good. If the young mistress doesn’t return soon, I’m afraid some people will become even more restless."

Jiayi’s face twitched slightly, "Hmm?"

Auntie Li didn’t want to conceal it from her, quite dissatisfied, "The young lady from the other branch heard that Zaizai was injured, and she’s been calling every day to look for the young master, saying she’s worried about Zaizai and wants to visit the hospital... I think it’s not about worrying for her little cousin Zaizai at all, it’s clearly just an excuse to cozy up to the young master..."

Jiayi didn’t say much, but it sounded like the man had refused Xiaolei’s visit to see Zaizai, probably because he didn’t want Jiayi and Xiaolei to meet and exacerbate the conflict between him and her.

Sure enough, Auntie Li advised, "The young master has refused, not allowing Xiaolei to visit the hospital, which shows that he still very much cares about your feelings."

Cares about her feelings?

She brushed aside the hair that had slipped onto her forehead, her lips curling into a wry smile.

He cared about her feelings, yet still had to place a kept underground lover in Yunling.

As they were speaking, a nurse knocked on the door and came in, "Mrs. Huo, Dr. Xu needs to see you, please go to his office."

Dr. Xu is the attending doctor who has been in charge of Zaizai during his stay at the hospital and is also the best orthopedic surgeon at Renxin.

Jiayi collected her emotions, noticing something unusual about the nurse’s demeanor, her heart skipped a beat uneasily. She asked Auntie Li to stay with Zaizai and followed the nurse to the attending doctor’s office.

Dr. Xu sat behind his stately mahogany desk, looking rather solemn. When he saw Jiayi enter, he stood up, personally poured a cup of hot water for the mayor’s wife, and courteously said, "Mrs. Huo, please take a seat."

Seeing Dr. Xu’s expression, Jiayi grew even more apprehensive, "Dr. Xu, you asked for me, is there a problem?"

That morning, Dr. Xu said during his rounds that Zaizai’s foot injury wasn’t serious and that he was recovering very well.

"The child’s foot injury isn’t a problem and will naturally heal over time. However, during the examination, we discovered another issue."

Jiayi’s heart clenched tightly, "What issue?"

Dr. Xu tried to sound as gentle and tactful as possible, so as not to scare the very tense young woman, "As far as I know, there is a hereditary condition in the family of Mayor Huo Zhenyang’s mother, correct?"

On the day of Zaizai’s hospitalization, it is routine for the doctor to ask and record a child’s and their family’s medical history to prevent allergic reactions to certain medications.

The Huo family’s hereditary condition has never been publicly disclosed, but Renxin is known as a private hospital for the wealthy, with impeccable privacy. As such, Huo Zhenyang wasn’t concerned and mentioned it to Dr. Xu.

Jiayi sensed something amiss, her heart pounding as if it were about to leap out, her hands beginning to tremble.

Dr. Xu continued, "The examination found that the young master also has this disease-causing gene."

Jiayi’s hand trembled, knocking over the water glass, spilling the hot water all over the table, splashing onto her hand, but she hardly noticed the scald.

"Don’t worry, the young master is currently fine, it’s just that there is a certain chance he might develop the condition in the future. Of course, it’s only a probability, and he might be lucky and never develop it..."

Dr. Xu’s words weren’t finished, but Jiayi’s mind had already gone blank.

It can’t be, it can’t be.

Zaizai has always been healthy, from when he was born until now, he’s rarely even had a cold or a fever...

How could there be a chance he’d have this illness!!
