Chapter 15: Let’s Chat

Le Lin looked at Ting Yu. “Is Mommy still not done? She missed our dinner again.” The boy’s little face was full of complaints about his mommy.

Ting Yu’s heart almost melted when she saw this. “President Le will be back soon. You can eat first, children.”

Princess Ning Ning raised her little spoon and looked at her brother, then at Sister Ting Yu. “Yeah, why isn’t Mommy back yet?”

Ting Yu pinched her little face. “Mommy will be back after Ning Ning finishes her meal.”

Le Ning smiled and nodded. “Ning Ning will eat.”

This cute little girl was like a little angel. Due to her inborn fetal problems, she could not move as fast as her brother. However, this did not stop Le Yu from loving her. Her sense of smell was more sensitive than ordinary people. Perhaps this was compensation from the heavens.

The fresh and refined perfume that Le Yu used was all made by Ning Ning herself. She could be considered to be gifted.

Le Ning, whose mouth was stuffed with chicken wings, looked up at her brother and asked with a frown, “Brother, why did you stop me from looking for that brother? Ning Ning thinks that he would want to see such a cute sister!”

Le Lin looked at her and said sternly, “Mommy said that you have to swallow all the food before you can speak.”

“Yes, Ning Ning swallowed it.”

Le Lin reached out and wiped her mouth. “That brother doesn’t know us yet. We can’t go to him. We’ll cause trouble for Mommy.”

Of course, Little Princess Le Ning didn’t understand these complicated things. This was enough for her. She didn’t want to cause trouble for her mother.

Le Yu had taught her two babies well. They were both cute and sensible, which was something that many people envied. Li Feng had only raised Li Bei, but he had raised the child so miserably. Perhaps it was not his intention, but he could not shirk his duties.

It was late at night. Ting Yu saw that the light in the study room was still on. She heated a glass of milk and pushed the door open. “Are you still busy with the project?”

Le Yu raised her head and looked at her. “No, Li Bei’s condition is more complicated than I thought. I suspect that he has been poisoned by a type of poison that Master mentioned before. I’m reading Master’s notes now!” She pinched the corners of her eyes as she spoke. The soreness in her eyes told her that she needed to stop and rest.

“Did you find it?”

Le Yu shook her head. “No.” She held the cup in her hand, feeling a little defeated. “We can only give him a few sessions of acupuncture to control the speed of the poison entering his body. At least, he can sleep.”

Ting Yu looked at her and added, “Since it’s confirmed that he was poisoned, we should also investigate the cause of the poison entering his body.”

“You’re right.” Le Yu was reminded by Ting Yu’s words. “This is a serious problem. We have to mention it to Li Feng.”

It seemed that the Li family was not as clean and flawless as it seemed on the surface. Someone was secretly plotting against Li Bei. Was there a plot behind this that they did not know about?

The next day, when Le Yu saw Li Bei, he looked much better. “Did you sleep well last night?” she asked.

Li Feng was also standing beside Li Bei, looking at him.

Li Bei’s eyes were fixed on Le Yu, and he slowly nodded. “Very well.”

Le Yu smiled. “That’s good. We’re going to start the first acupuncture treatment today. Bei Bei, are you afraid of pain?”

Li Bei shook his head. “I’m not afraid.”

No child was not afraid of pain. When they fell, the first thing they would do was to express their pain. However, Li Bei said that he was not afraid of pain. This was something Le Yu did not expect.

“It’s okay if you’re scared. If you can’t stand it, you can just tell Auntie,” Le Yu said with a smile.

This time, Li Feng stood by the side and could feel Le Yu’s concern for Li Bei even more clearly. Her body was exuding an unknown light, as if she was harmonious like the spring breeze, making people feel very comfortable.

In the end, Le Yu did not complete the acupuncture, because in the middle of the process, Le Yu had already noticed that Li Bei’s body had started to tremble slightly. Although he did not make a sound, with Le Yu’s many years of medical experience, Li Bei was almost at his limit.

Le Yu quickly retracted the needle and covered Li Bei with the blanket. She glanced at Li Feng and said, “Let’s talk.”

Li Feng touched Li Bei’s forehead, but Li Bei pushed his hand away. He looked at Le Yu’s serious expression and slowly nodded. “Sure, let’s go to my study.”
