Chapter 165: Chapter 165: Anxious for Quick Success?
Actually, Li Zishen had been feeling restless since he got in the car.
He always felt that something was off, not seeing the person he wanted to meet, and encountering a sudden complication in his business deals, as if all these problems came at him all at once.
The laptop was slowly opened.
This was retrieved by Chen Xin from the damaged limited edition luxury car specially.
Last night, Li Zishen arrived in a hurry, not bringing anyone with him, focused solely on seeing Tang Xiaowan as soon as possible. Perhaps because he let his guard down, his car tire was mysteriously punctured halfway there, lost control, leading him to hop into a private car hurriedly.
Money sometimes does solve problems. If five hundred doesn’t work, then a thousand will do the trick. The car owner drove Li Zishen to Nanshan as fast as he could.
"Brother Shen, you just mentioned Leng Lingxiao, is he also at Mei Garden?"
"What do you think of how Xiao Wan treats people?"
"To be honest, at first I was quite afraid of Lady Tang, but after getting to know her, she’s really nice. Last week, I had a sore throat, and she gave me a box of lozenges which really worked wonders. She’s great."
The Leng Family valued medical care, naturally not lacking these things, but Tang Xiaowan’s simple act of kindness was still heartwarming.
"Yes, Wan is indeed great."
"Actually, Lady Tang is a very kind person, she just doesn’t bother to explain herself, so sometimes people misunderstand her, which is quite unfair to her."
Li Zishen understood the implication of those words.
Some things should really be asked in person, otherwise, you end up at a great loss!
Why won’t Wan come out to meet me? Even if she’s really angry, but now that I’m here, how can she bear not to come out?
Leng Lingxiao left in such a hurry, as if he was running out of time. Why?
No, it’s Wan, something has happened to Wan!
Therefore, the laptop that had just been powered on was snapped shut with a clap.
"Go back, back to Mei Garden immediately!"
"Yes, Brother Shen."
Chen Xin was greatly relieved, immediately turning the car around, the movement so abrupt that the black SUV behind them was caught off guard.
Fortunately, the driver was an old hand and managed it with ease.
...
Mei Garden, the bedroom in the east end on the second floor.
Leng Lingxiao was performing bloodletting on Tang Xiaowan.
Her delicate fingers were pricked by a silver needle, for the second time.
"What exactly happened? How could she faint all of a sudden? Should we bring Granny Cai back?" Li Fugui asked anxiously.
"It’s just an overdose of medicine; it’s nothing serious."
"Miss didn’t do it... on purpose, did she?"
Leng Lingxiao nodded, his feelings complex: "Too impatient for results, not obedient at all."
About the bottle of Chinese Medicine Pills he had given her, he had indeed specifically instructed Tang Xiaowan to only take two pills at a time, not more, not less, even the timing of taking the pills was strict.
It used to be before bed, and only in the past few days had she switched to taking them when she woke up.
"How long before she can wake up?"
"By all accounts, she should have woken up by now," Leng Lingxiao glanced at Tang Xiaowan’s dense eyelashes, "Maybe the spot wasn’t chosen well, maybe... we should try pricking the sole of the foot, yes, the sole would be better."
A long silver needle glinted with light.
"Use this, it’ll definitely be thrilling!"
Li Fugui: "?"
"It feels different when it’s not you being pricked!"
Tang Xiaowan sat up abruptly, looking at Leng Lingxiao with intense anger, which startled Li Fugui tremendously.
"Miss, you’ve finally woken up!"
In fact, she had been awake for a while, just pretending to sleep.
"Will you dare to take the pills recklessly next time?" Leng Lingxiao questioned while swaying the silver needle back and forth.
Tang Xiaowan quickly protected her feet.
That was the most sensitive part of her body, one that could not be touched by others.
Although Tang Xiaowan often liked to walk barefoot, she actually couldn’t stand being tickled, and the slightest touch would send her into uncontrollable laughter.
"I only took two extra pills."
"Did my instructions go in one ear and out the other?"
"I feel like... actually..."
"Enough with the stalling, get up already, what time is it?"
"You really are not the least bit..."
Leng Lingxiao raised an eyebrow, "Sympathetic and gentle?"
"Nonsense, that’s not it at all."
Tang Xiaowan, frustrated, got out of bed and walked out because Leng Lingxiao had guessed all of her little thoughts.
She was indeed too eager for results!
Ever since she took that Chinese medicine pill, Tang Xiaowan felt not only her headache was gone, but also her memories of the past were getting clearer.
The brief scenes in the kitchen were an example.
Therefore, on her way to the restaurant, while Leng Lingxiao wasn’t paying attention, she secretly ate two more pills.
She hadn’t expected the reaction to be so fierce!
Before the lean meat porridge was even served, she felt an intense dizziness and blacked out, regaining consciousness only to find herself in the bedroom.
Bearing the stabbing pain, she continued to feign sleep.
She had always trusted her intuition, convinced that Leng Lingxiao and Li Fugui were definitely keeping something from her.
Ah, it’s infuriating!
Is it wrong that you seem to know what I’m thinking? What’s the point of eavesdropping then?
It’s like being haunted by a stomach worm, so frustrating!
Tang Xiaowan grumbled inwardly, feeling she had miscalculated and suffered in vain, so she picked up an apple from the coffee table and started crunching away.
Crunchy, very sweet, and full of juice.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door, she saw the towering figure of Li Zishen.
His expression was anxious and his phoenix eyes were slightly red; upon seeing Tang Xiaowan, he immediately grabbed her arm, "Xiao Wan, are you alright, are you hurt?"
Tang Xiaowan, holding an apple, was stunned.
"You, how did you get here?"
"It’s good that you’re okay, I thought... it’s good that you’re fine."
After saying that, Li Zishen slowly let go of her hand and stepped back, the gloominess on his face dissipating in the moment.
There was no surprise, nor was anyone trying to harm Tang Xiaowan after all; he had been too worried.
"There’s nothing wrong with me, I’m perfectly fine."
"Good, good, glad you’re okay."
Then Leng Lingxiao and Li Fugui also came out, one in front of the other.
That’s the advantage of a big room.
From the innermost bedroom to the living room, even walking takes time, not to mention Leng Lingxiao had to pack up his little tools.
Li Fugui, as the butler of Mei Garden, naturally had to assist.
However, Li Zishen’s arrival didn’t seem to surprise them in the least, especially Leng Lingxiao holding a medical box, who directly pulled Tang Xiaowan behind him as if to play the hero saving the beauty.
"Wow, Mr. Li has also learned to break into people’s homes!" Leng Lingxiao said with a smile.
Tang Xiaowan: "..."
"It’s all a misunderstanding."
Li Fugui quickly stepped forward to mediate, while taking the black medical box from Leng Lingxiao’s hand.
This one’s metal, very dangerous!
If a fight breaks out and it hurts my lady, that would be bad; as for the two of you, feel free to go at it, we at Mei Garden won’t get involved.
"If Mr. Leng wants to call the police, I’m prepared to see it through to the end."
His voice was loud and magnetic.
A pair of phoenix eyes glanced over the metal box, and Li Zishen straightened his striped tie, completely exuding an air of superiority and fearlessness.
Call the police, fight, choose whatever you want.
Li Zishen isn’t afraid of anyone!
Rivals always eye each other with enmity, and this was exactly the situation.
"Are you all so idle?" Tang Xiaowan moved to stand between them, "Come on, follow me outside, just so happens we need more hands."
With that said, she had already walked several meters out.
