Jiang Cong handed the test results to Jiang Yigu in his office.
With Ji Weixi holding up Li Shaoling on his chair, he seized the chance and leaned on her.
âEh?â Ji Weixi stiffened, afraid to move as she quickly looked at the others around them.
Luckily, they did not notice them.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yigu had put the ECG scans on a light plate, clicking his tongue. âI say, President Li... your head is fine.â
Li Shaoling glared at him with a cold, sharp look, but Jiang Yigu merely beamed at him and slammed the report on his desk. âTell me. Have you been angry, staying up late, or drinking?â
However, Li Shaoling answered him by closing his eyes to rest.
How insolent.
Irritated, Jiang Yigu clicked his tongue again, while Jiang Cong quickly answered in his stead, âThe Boss has been staying up late and angry, but he didnât go drinking.â
âWhy not letâs set up a date thenâIâll cut your head open to take a look.â
Li Shaolingâs eyes promptly widened, exuding killing intent.
Jiang Yigu was promptly cowed. âAhem... well, your case is neural. If you remember something but find it a blur, donât keep thinking hard on itâjust let things flow naturally. Additionally, Iâm telling you now not to stay up late or get angry! Take care of your body, our sister-in-law here is still young!â
He actually wanted to add âdonât widow herâ, but was not brave enough to say it.
Meanwhile, Li Shaoling turned away and said hoarsely, âShut up.â
âExcuse me,â Ji Weixi suddenly spoke then, âIs his condition... serious?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jiang Yigu quickly made a somber, mysterious face. âWell... thatâs hard to say... ouch!â
âTalk like a human being!â Li Shaoling exclaimed.
Heâs already that miserable, but his eyes are still so frightening!
âItâs actually not that serious. The main thing is that his brain was hurt in the past, damaging his hippocampusâneural pain is therefore unavoidable. He would feel unbearable pain whenever he remembers some fragment of memories, but he has always been tough... so be at ease, Sister-in-law!â
Ji Weixi breathed a sigh of relief inwardly, but her little one pouted unhappily.
âMommy, that man doesnât feel reliable.â
âYeah, definitely.â
As the others stood up and started to leave, Tian Miaomiao turned to find Jiang Yigu winking at her. âRemember to make an appointment next time you want to woo me, lady?â
Not one for pickup lines, Tian Miaomiao blushed and cursed, âScoundrel!â
Nonetheless, Jiang Yigu waved at her. âCome again~â
He looked like an old waitress 1 greeting a customer.
However, when the office door was closed, Jiang Yigu stood up and went to the window.
His face looked cold, and he closed his eyes in pain as if remembering something in the past.

Ji Weixi and the others left the hospital and got in their car, with Li Shaoling resting his head on her narrow shoulder once again.
Feeling that sinking weight, she turned to find him with his eyes closed, his brow deeply furrowed and his breathing heavy.
Ji Weixi did not move at first, afraid of making him feel uncomfortable. However, her waist eventually felt ill at ease, and so she shifted a bit.
Li Shaoling complained, âIt hurts...â
Two simple words, at once giving grief and acting spoiled.
Ji Weixi patted his head by reflex, and mimicked his speech, âGood boy. It wonât hurt soon...â
Li Shaoling shifted his head a little. âHurts...â
Ji Weixi gasped while Jiang Cong almost crashed the car. Only the little one was calm.
One must have an infinitely thick face to get the wife!
He was satisfied with such a daddy, although his flaw was that he was lacking in a certain aspect.
Ji Weixi wanted to slap Li Shaoling right then.
Well, whatever. Heâs ill at the moment.
âWhere does it hurt?â She asked, keeping her patience.
Pouting a little, Li Shaoling rubbed his head on her shoulder. âHead hurts.â
Mother...
What a puppy. Ji Weixi could feel her own motherly instincts overflowing as she looked on.
Nonetheless, she kept telling herself that itâs about patient care, or her son wouldnât have a father if he dies...
She raised her hand then, and gently rubbed his temples.
Li Shaoling enjoyed it with his eyes closed. âGentler.â
And then, âHarder.â
Jiang Cong was exclaiming in shock inwardly. If he couldnât see the massage, his imagination would be running wild with the voices alone!
The little one snuggled up to them then. âMommy, Mommy, I want a massage too!â
Li Shaoling opened his eyes and shot him a cold look. âNone for you.â
She was his woman. Why would a brat get to join the fun?
âHmph! Fine!â The little one lifted his brow cheekily. âI had Mommy to myself for four years, la-la-la!â
The inside of the car became freezing right then.
Jiang Cong enjoyed the show as he drove.
Father and son might start fighting one of these days.
***
Back at the office, Li Shaoling was still grumbling about the pain. He wanted Ji Weixi to keep him company, not letting her go whatever she might say.
It was a stunning scene, with him behaving like a weaning child that wouldnât leave his mother.
Disgusted, both the little one and Tian Miaomiao returned to Ji Weixiâs office.
Then, when Ji Weixi sat on the sofa, and Li Shaoling quickly lay down, using her lap as a pillow and squeezing his huge frame onto the furniture.
She tolerated it, again, and again.
Li Weixi put his arms around her waist, his brow tightening even more as he pursed his thin lips.
As she rubbed his temples, Ji Weixi said, âYou must remember what the doctor ordered...â
âYes,â he replied quietly. âYou shouldnât make me angry.â
â...â
âIt would be best if you obey me.â
â...â
Kid, you lack the vicious spanking of society!
Anyone acting so ridiculously would be seized for detention!
âBy the way, what about that thing?â Li Shaoling suddenly asked then.
âI found the culprit and the evidence is solid, but I canât find that person.â Ji Weixi sighed. âI went to her home, but her neighbor said that she moved.â
âOkay. Do your best.â Li Shaoling closed his eyes.
â...â
âMister president, that isnât what you should be saying!
âShouldnât it be: Itâll be alright, Iâm here!?â
As she had thought, Li Shaoling wasnât normal, just like how his brain was different from normal humans.
That being said, she wasnât thinking about having him help.
Still, with the companyâs profit at stake, was he really going to let her be?
When Ji Weixi remembered that it affected him considerably, she quickly massaged his head and shoulders for him.
After some time, her hands were sore and Li Shaoling fell asleep.
She could not help looking down at him.
In his sleep, he was a quiet, beautiful man who looks like he could be kneaded.
She had the impulse to slap him a few times right then.
In fact, her hand itched for it.
Still, Ji Weixi merely stretched lazily, shifting her numb buttocks. Li Shaoling, upset in his sleep, frowned.
She breathed a long sigh and leaned on the sofa, closing her eyes to rest.
Her eyelids grew heavier, and her consciousness was slowly fading as well...
***
After who-knows-how-long, the skies darkened.
The streetlights were lit when Jiang Cong knocked on the door and entered, with the inside of the house remaining dim and silent.
Ji Weixiâs eyes were closed, and she was leaning a little sideways on the sofa.
Li Shaoling was sleeping soundly on her lap. His brow was relaxed, seemingly having recovered considerably.
It was a heartwarming scene.
