Chapter 734: Disaster Blooms, Just Needs a Spark

    

hether it was due to pregnancy or the intense stress of the past two days, Luo Ningxi supported Li Botong back to the hospital bed. She felt utterly drained. Afraid of revealing her exhaustion and fac...She had never told Li Botong about the child because there were too many uncertainties between them.

Even without Jian Ningyi, there's Mu Xiyin, and even the entire Li family.

Li Bochen remained silent. Instead, he sat up with some difficulty. Luo Ningxi instinctively wanted to help, but she held back her outstretched hand.

"Luo Ningxi, I was driven abroad by the Li family for six years. They can no longer arrange my life at will." Li Bocen paused, his gaze fixed on Luo Ningxi's eyes with determination.

The ward was eerily silent, so quiet that all you could hear were each other's breaths.

The indescribable emotions between the two of them were concealed under the dim light.

Luo Ningxi looked at Li Bichen's pale face, and in her mind flashed Li Bichen's image of protecting her with his life.

She wasn't stupid; she could vaguely sense that after the divorce, both she and Luo Yi were vying for control of the company, and all that happened afterward had traces of Li Bochen's involvement.

As he said, perhaps, he had never changed his choice...

Thinking of this, Luo Ningxi took a deep breath and looked at Li Bochen firmly, "Li Bochen, I will reconsider, as long as you handle things with Jian Ningyi and Mu Xiyin properly, I will give you an answer."

As for the matter of the children, I will also tell him together.

Upon hearing Luo Ningxi's words, Li Bichen's originally dim and cold eyes finally brightened.

His eyes, as deep and dark as the night sky, shimmered with a dangerous yet alluring light in the darkness. "Baby, if I could move right now, I would definitely rush over and hold you."

"Just lie in bed and sleep, alright Get well soon. I still have to go back to work!" Lu Ningxi frowned.

Li Bichen smirked, seizing the moment, "If you can stay by my side, I'd rather have things progress slowly."

"Don't go on like this! If you say another word, I'm leaving!" Lu Ningxi's cheeks were flushed, and she hurried back to the suite's guest room.

For fear that the other party might see through any flaws.

Li Boche didn't say much more. He reached for the phone on his bedside table and glanced at it, but there were no messages from Mo Yao.

I asked him to investigate why the billboard suddenly collapsed. With his efficiency, he should have gotten back to me by now.

……

Yunlan Hotel.

Yu Ran and Li Jianbin confirmed the time and quickly instructed Yu Chengnan to arrange a dinner meeting for the two of them.

At the table, Yu Chengnan was courteous and raised his glass to Li Jianbin, "Uncle, thank you for your and Auntie's care during this time. My projects are all going smoothly, so I raise a toast to you."

Li Jianbin did not raise his glass to toast him, but smiled sternly, picked up the wine in his hand and took a sip, "Chengnan, since you have this intention, it's better to thank your aunt. She has been pulling you through all these years, no matter what happened, otherwise you wouldn't be where you are today."

Although Li Jiancheng was impressed by Yu Chengnan's abilities, in his heart, Yu Chengnan was always an outsider.

Yu Chengnan's grip on the wine glass tightened slightly. Yu Lan, seeing his expression, immediately changed the subject.

"Oh well, what do I have to thank him for This kid is actually quite clever. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done these projects so well and gotten the attention of the old man. He'll have to keep working hard in the future."

Yu Ran said, not forgetting to give Yu Chengnan a wink.

Yu Chengnan calmed himself and revealed a gentle and humble smile. "What my uncle and aunt said is true, I will definitely work harder in the future to ease my uncle's worries."

"I just want someone to share my worries, that's all I ask for." Li Jianbin took another sip of his wine, as if he had thought of something, a look of anger crossed his face. "I definitely don't want someone like the fourth brother around me!"

Before the words left her mouth, the air around them instantly grew cold.

Yu Chengnan remained silent, his long fingers clutching a high-footed glass, his eyes lowered to conceal the darkness swirling within.

"Jianbin, look at you, bringing that person up at this time. No matter what Chengnan says, she's still better than Li Bochen, right" Yu Lan frowned slightly, trying to break the awkward silence.

Li Jianbin's eyes were full of disgust. "With his attitude, he disappears whenever he wants and hasn't shown up until now. He clearly doesn't take me or my grandfather seriously."

"Four Young Master, wasn't he injured by an advertisement board when trying to save Luo Ningxi He should still be in the hospital, right"

Yu Chengnan's voice was calm, yet it made Li Jianbin and Yu Lan both stunned.

"What did you say" Li Jianbin suddenly realized, "No wonder I couldn't find him. He was in the hospital! For that bitch Luo Ningxi again"

Yu Chengnan nodded slightly, his tone a bit dazed. "It's true, my people happened to witness the incident at the time, and they are now in the VIP ward of the city center hospital."

"What!"

Yu Lan and Yu Chengnan exchanged glances, then looked at Li Jianbin, "Jianbin, the old man probably doesn't know about this..."

Li Jianbin downed the wine in his hand and couldn't help but laugh, "He just announced that Lao Si and Miss Mu are getting engaged. If he knew Lao Si was hospitalized to save Luo Ningxi, he wouldn't be furious"

"Now then, let's tell the old man about this..."

As the two spoke, Yu Chengnan casually lowered his head. In his pair of indifferent eyes, which were difficult to discern joy or anger, a glimmer of imperceptible calculation flashed.I'm going back to my room to rest first."After she finished speaking, she glanced at Li Botong again and, leaning on her crutch, slowly moved away from the room.The old man's face broke into a smile o...
