Chapter 371 If I become disabled, would you mind?



Chapter 371 If I become disabled, would you mind?

"It doesn't hurt." Jiang Xing subtly withdrew her hand.

Lou Qi said helplessly, "Can't I even take a look?"

Jiang Xing spoke frankly, though somewhat awkwardly: "Getting burned while cooking is a very normal thing, and it's not serious. What you're saying... I think it's a bit dramatic."

Lou Qi had sensed this before, but now it was even more so. He was both amused and exasperated: "Jiang Xing, is this how you science whizzes get along?"

Jiang Xing looked at him incredulously.

Was he making fun of her?

Having known each other for so long, apart from in bed, Lou Qi, this playboy, mostly wore the skin of a gentleman and praised Jiang Xing. He often said things like, "Our little PhD is so smart!" "Dr. Jiang, won't you teach me?" "Good boy, Xing."

And now, he's making fun of her?

What's so funny about this?

Jiang Xing pursed her lips angrily.

She had just stood up when the man grabbed her hand.

"I didn't mean to make fun of you. I just wanted to tell you that, whether as yourself or as my woman, cooking and housework are not your responsibility." Lou Qi decisively admitted his mistake. "Don't go."

Jiang Xing was speechless for a moment. "I'm going to the toilet."

Lou Qi: "..."

In the bathroom.

Jiang Xing looked at himself in the mirror, lost in thought.

Why does she have this illusion that her relationship with Lou Qi has finally become a reality through this incident, a relationship that was once just a pipe dream?

When Jiang woke up, Lou Qi had already started eating.

His right hand was still fractured and in a cast, so he couldn't move it and used his left hand to eat.

The IV catheter was just removed from the back of my left hand, and there's a noticeable bruise on the back of my hand.

Jiang Xing had mentally prepared himself to feed Lou Qi himself, but he never expected that this person would suddenly start to behave and actually eat by himself!

Lou Qi originally wanted to cheat and get Jiang Xing to feed him, but Jiang Xing injured his hand, so he couldn't bear to do it.

She simply sat down on the sofa next to the hospital bed, looking down at her phone, when she suddenly heard Lou Qi calling her.

"Jiang Xing."

Jiang Xing looked up at him.

Lou Qi finished his porridge, put down his spoon, and asked her, "I'm disfigured, will you mind?"

Jiang Xing was puzzled for a few seconds, not understanding Lou Qi's delusions, when he caught a glimpse of the gauze wrapped around Lou Qi's forehead.

She pointed to the location of his wound: "You only had two stitches here, and they used cosmetic needles and sutures. The doctor said the chance of it leaving a scar is very small. Even if it does, it won't be easy to see."

The implication is that there's no need to worry about being disfigured.

Lou Qi persisted, asking, "You don't mind if I'm disfigured?"

"I don't mind!" Jiang Xing, annoyed by the questioning, casually made up a story, "Who doesn't like handsome guys?"

She's not superficial at all; she believes a person's character and values ​​are more important than their looks. But if she says she doesn't mind, it sounds like she's head over heels for him.

"What if I become disabled?" Lou Qi continued to ask.

Jiang Xing frowned.

Is this person trying to extort her?

"Lou Qi, your leg only has soft tissue contusion, and the prognosis for your hand and ribs is good. Your internal organs just need time to recover. You are far from being crippled."

"So you mind—"

"mind!"

Lou Qi was very satisfied with this.

He's handsome, and he has all his limbs intact.

Moreover, Ying Kai'an was disfigured and crippled.

What a coincidence!

—Although Ying Kai'an is no longer a threat, the fact that he is still considered an "ex" is enough for Lou Qi to target him.

Jiang Xing had no idea what he was thinking, and even suspected that he might have been hit somewhere inside his head, but it hadn't been detected.

Assistant Gao knocked on the door and came in.

He greeted Jiang Xing and then said to the two of them, "Mr. Lou, Miss Jiang, Ying Kaian is awake."
