Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 1908
Chapter 1908: Will Mr Li Have Any Major Problems?
“Alright, wait for me here.”
Mr Li turned around and followed the bodyguard and the medical staff into the examination room.
Tang Xiaoyu looked at him. There were too many similarities between people who were too lonely. This was because she had experienced it before. During that period of time, she was living a life worse than death. It was as if she wanted to keep her feelings for so many years in the cradle.
That night, everything that Gu Zhengrong did became an unforgettable memory in Tang Xiaoyu’s mind.
When he thought of himself as Pei Ge and when he repeated her name repeatedly, Tang Xiaoyu’s heart almost broke. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not wake up a person pretending to be asleep. Gu Zhengrong had finally become a thing of the past in her heart.
Tang Xiaoyu’s mind was on Mr Li’s health checkup, but she did not know that Gu Zhengrong’s car was parked not far from the hospital.
“Miss, will Mr Li have any major problems?”
The nanny held Duo Duo in her arms, her gaze melancholic and uneasy. She looked in the direction Mr Li had gone in and suddenly lost her confidence.
The outside world was talking about how impressive Mr Li was. However, only people like them who took care of him in close proximity knew how close Mr Li had come to doing charity events.
“I don’t know either, but I don’t think Mr Li will have any major problems. He’s just too lonely.”
Tang Xiaoyu took Duo Duo from the housekeeper’s hands and looked at Duo Duo’s cheeks with heartache. Her cheeks were chubby and the feeling of touching them was comparable to any other feeling.
“Miss Tang, let me say something I shouldn’t have said. Ever since you arrived, Mr Li has been smiling so much. I’ve taken care of him for so long but I’ve never seen him smile so much.”
“Then what was Mr Li like in the past?”
Tang Xiaoyu looked at Duo Duo while her voice drifted toward the housekeeper.
“In the past, Mr Li laughed a lot outside. But at home, he rarely laughed. It was as if he was wearing a mask, I didn’t see much of his sincere laughter. Sometimes, I wonder what’s wrong with Mr Li. Ever since I entered this house, I rarely see Mr Li’s smile. I even suspect that he has gotten used to living alone for a long time.”
The nanny’s voice was gentle, but there was also a hint of helplessness.
“Perhaps. He is too lonely. Naturally, he doesn’t care about what others think.”
Tang Xiaoyu felt more and more that she could understand Mr Li’s feelings. After all, he was in this state when Gu Zhengrong broke her heart, but now, she could no longer return to that state.
“Miss Tang, you… you and Mr Li?”
The nanny’s eyes lit up as she looked at Duo Duo in Tang Xiaoyu’s hands.
After all, Mr Li was the one who brought Duo Duo and Tang Xiaoyu over from China. They did not even have time to give them a new room in the house. They could only break out in cold sweat when they saw them.
The way Mr Li looked at Duo Duo now became especially gentle and benevolent. His smile also became even wider.
It had been such a long time since the servants and butlers in Mr Li’s house had seen Mr Li smile so much.
“Auntie, Mr Li and I are just friends. It’s fine if you’re speculating in secret, but now you actually want to talk about me in front of me? Do you think that Mr Li and I met by chance outside and gave birth to Duo Duo?”
Tang Xiaoyu’s voice was low but her heart was already in turmoil.
“This… Miss Tang, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I don’t know how to explain things. Please don’t mind me. I’ll apologize to you right now, okay? Please don’t tell this to Mr Li? I’m an old woman…”
“Since you know that this job is important to you, isn’t it immoral for you to badmouth your owner in front of him?”
“Miss Tang, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.”
The nanny quickly lowered her head in apology. Only now did she realize that Tang Xiaoyu’s influence in this household was much more important than Mr Li’s.
“Let’s not dwell on your matters for now. Once Mr Li’s checkup is over, I’m not the one who can decide whether you want to stay or leave. You’re Mr Li’s nanny, not someone I hired. However, let me give you a piece of advice. It’s best that you don’t ask too much about the master’s family matters.”
Tang Xiaoyu looked at the housekeeper coldly. She did not know what this woman was thinking. How did she become a celebrity in their eyes?
Tang Xiaoyu was even more furious that someone she had just met in the morning would appear before her in the afternoon.
Gu Zhengrong was drunk as he staggered to Tang Xiaoyu’s side. His eyes were misty and moist. It seemed like he had just cried a lot. The tears at the corner of his eyes could still be seen clearly and the stubble at the corner of his mouth became more obvious in her eyes.
“Xiaoyu, what are you doing here?”
When Gu Zhengrong walked in with Mr Li and the rest, the bodyguards at the door did not notice him. Instead, they let him in with puzzled looks.
“Why are you here?”
Tang Xiaoyu looked at Gu Zhengrong. He did not look handsome at all. Instead, he looked more depressed and defeated.
“Can’t I be here if you’re here? Xiaoyu, tell me what’s wrong with you.”
Gu Zhengrong wanted to walk forward to see if Tang Xiaoyu still had his figure in her eyes, but no matter how he looked at it, he did not see the moment when Tang Xiaoyu only had her eyes on him. Perhaps, the person whom he could not forget for such a long time was not Tang Xiaoyu but Gu Zhengrong himself.
“I have nothing to say to you. Hurry up and leave, or I’ll get the bodyguards at the door to bring you out.”
Tang Xiaoyu’s cold voice pierced through Gu Zhengrong’s suit jacket and into his heart like the cold wind outside.
However, he was no longer as gentle as he was at the beach earlier. The sea breeze blew Gu Zhengrong’s thoughts further away, making him recall the first time he met Tang Xiaoyu. It was so far away that he wanted to make it clear that he was not drunk and unconscious.
