Chapter 943 - 958: A Hero Saves the Beauty
"No need, I saved Manman just because I didn’t want her to get hurt, I can hire a caregiver myself, and I can afford the hospital expenses."Despite the seemingly calm voices, there was a tense atmosphere between the two of them, causing the pressure in the room to drop instantly.
Li Manman felt she couldn’t let the two of them stay in the same space; they might end up fighting: "Feng Yi, why don’t you go home first, and I’ll come back later."
"I wouldn’t feel comfortable with you going home alone at night, let’s leave together later."
Since Feng Yi didn’t want to leave, Li Manman couldn’t kick him out. She could only nod and agree: "Alright then, why don’t you sit over there for a while."
With one hand in his pocket, Feng Yi strode over to the sofa and sat down, his gaze constantly fixed on the two of them.
Li Manman could clearly feel the scorching gaze that seemed to burn her, so uncomfortably she blew on a spoonful of soup to cool it down and offered it to Tong Ze.
Tong Ze was quite composed and didn’t feel awkward even with Feng Yi watching.
Since Tong Ze was lying down, the soup in the spoon inevitably dripped out. Li Manman bent down to pick up the napkin from the table to wipe the soup running down his mouth.
"How about I go downstairs to get you a straw?"
"No need, this is just fine."
Tong Ze just wanted this girl to feed him spoon by spoon, wishing time could be frozen in such a moment.
Feng Yi on the sofa was almost furious now, watching his woman feed another man soup and even wipe his mouth; it was an unbearable feeling.
He only regretted not being by Li Manman’s side at the time, otherwise how could there be Tong Ze’s heroic rescue drama.
Han Xi came in from outside after picking up painkillers, immediately sensing the heavy pressure and jealousy in the room.
Han Xi took the painkillers out of the pocket of the white coat and placed them on the table, glancing at Feng Yi’s face darkened like coal: "Manman, why don’t you go back with Feng Yi first, I’ll take care of Tong Ze."
Tong Ze was injured to save her, so Li Manman couldn’t just leave him to Han Xi: "No need, it’s getting late, you should go back first or Lu Jinghan will start to worry."
In fact, Lu Jinghan had called Han Xi earlier, and he should be arriving at the hospital soon.
"I’m not in a hurry, Jinghan will come to pick me up shortly, you really should leave with Feng Yi." Han Xi gave Li Manman a meaningful look.
Li Manman understood Han Xi’s intentions, aware that Feng Yi disliked her being with Tong Ze, but since Tong Ze was injured because of her, she had a responsibility to take care of him.
"I’ll stay here, you’ve worked all day and must be exhausted, head home quickly."
Han Xi didn’t press further: "Alright, I’ll come by tomorrow during work, call me if anything comes up."
"Okay, go ahead."
After greeting Tong Ze and Feng Yi, Han Xi left.
Tong Ze only drank half a bowl of soup before he couldn’t drink anymore. Li Manman put down the bowl she was holding: "Take the painkillers first, or the wound will hurt again later."
Tong Ze nodded with a smile, suddenly feeling the injury had been worth it.
Li Manman got up to pour a glass of plain water at the coffee table, and as she lifted her head, her gaze met Feng Yi’s in the air for a few seconds, causing her to quickly look away.
Tong Ze took the painkillers, when his assistant walked in with two bags, worried as he looked at Tong Ze’s pale face lying in the hospital bed: "President Tong, what happened to you?"
