off, as if it had detected something amiss on this end. It took half a day before it spoke again."Xixi, are you feeling unwell"The voice trembled noticeably more.Luo Ningxi's face was flushed red, her...The more she thought about it, the angrier and more wronged she felt! Her brain couldn't think too much, hurtful words just poured out.

"If it weren't for Yu Chenan arriving in time, I would have been killed by those bandits! What about you, who doesn't even answer my calls when I don't care about who he cares about"

Her words pierced through Li Bochen's heart like knives, making his face even more grim.

Li Bohen stared at the wound on her lips and the purple bruises on her neck left by the kidnapping. The jealousy that surged in his chest was instantly extinguished by a wave of ice water.

The air pressure around him was frighteningly low.

Lu Ningxi immediately reacted that she had said the wrong thing, her heart skipping a beat.

She was a little annoyed. This matter, Li Bochen could have just ignored it, but he had arranged everything and even went against Old Master Li because of it.

Shouldn't I say something grateful at this time But the words came to my lips, why are we arguing again!

Both people fell silent at the same time, a stillness hanging in the air.

Lu Ningxi secretly glanced at Li Bochen's face, her heart was thinking about how to make amends, suddenly his cold and stern voice interrupted her.

Were you hit by Yu Ran

"My face is all swollen, can't you see You just pinched me! Even if you don't love me anymore, you don't need to try and kill me, do you" Luo Ningxi hurriedly followed up, afraid that he would turn and leave.

Li Bochen's brows furrowed tightly, his eyes fixed on the wound on her lips. He was both heartbroken and irritable!

He gave Ningxi a medical ice pack from the nearby first aid kit, his face still cold, and slammed it down twice as if venting his anger.

The Li family are just a pack of mad dogs. Even if you see them, steer clear, or you'll get bitten.

He paused for a moment, then added, “Especially Yu Lan. No matter what you do, she will never agree to your relationship with her nephew.”

Lu Ningxi was taken aback, choked by her own anger. In a fit of fury, she hurled the ice pack at his chest!

"Li Bochen! You think I have that kind of relationship with Yu Chenan, don't you!"

"Drip drip—"

Just then, Li Bochen's phone in his arms suddenly rang.

Li Bochen's face was gloomy as he picked up his phone and glanced at the caller ID on the screen. Then, without a second thought, he turned and left the ward.

Silence fell once more.

Luo Ningxi sat on the bed, feeling a wave of nausea rise in her stomach from anger. No matter what she explained, Li Bochen wouldn't believe her!

And the moment Li Bochen reached for his phone, she caught a glimpse of the caller ID on the screen.

It turned out to be... Mu Xi Yin

Looking at Li Bochen's resolute back, Luo Ningxi felt a surge of inexplicable anger in her heart.

"It's only been a short while since we separated, and now you're back with Mu Xi Yin"

Luo Ningxi was so angry that she clutched her stomach. She knew she hadn't let go of Li Bochen yet, but the crack in their relationship caused by a loss of trust was incredibly difficult to repair!

It's none of my business who he wants to find. What does it have to do with me

Luo Ningxi was thinking when her phone in her pocket rang. It was Xiao Jin calling.

"Hey, Lord Luo, I'm handling Jian Ningyi's matter at the police station now. I heard about what happened at the hospital, are you alright" Xiao Jin's voice was both anxious and concerned.

"I'm fine, but I need to rest for a while. You must keep an eye on Jian Ningyi and the Li family for me, it'll be hard work!"

"Rest assured, Mr. Luo, here..." Xiao Jin's voice faltered, hesitating for a few seconds before continuing, "Here, Fourth Young Master has already made arrangements. He even invited Lawyer Qin over. Jian Ningyi definitely can't escape."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ningxi felt even more complicated in her heart. She pursed her lips and managed to squeeze out a single sentence, "Then please thank him for me."

She doesn't want to owe anyone anything, but in this situation, she can only figure out how to make amends later.

"By the way, can you also look into Mu Xi Yin thoroughly and see if she's involved in this"

"Mu Xi Yin, the eldest daughter of the Mu family" Xiao Jin's voice was grave.

"Mhm." Lu Ningxi nodded seriously, "Before the incident, Mu Xi Yin came to find me. She used Jian Ning Yi's accusation against me as an excuse, wanting me to leave the Imperial City forever. So I suspect she has something to do with this."

"I understand."

Xiao Jin also felt that it made sense and immediately replied, "Then you should rest well in the hospital first. I'll go check it out."

……

At the same time, Li Bochen walked out of the hospital angrily and saw Mu Xiyin standing at the entrance.

She saw the man come out and hurriedly went up to him, grabbing his sleeve and asking with concern, "Young Master Si, what happened I just came over and saw a bunch of police taking Second Sister-in-law away, and Uncle Li's face doesn't look good either..."

Li Bochen frowned slightly, his voice cold and sharp, "Don't you know what happened"d give me an explanation"Mia's heart pounded in her chest, and she nervously took two steps back, her mind racing."I... I didn't know it was you, New! This is a misunderstanding! It's just a misunders...
