Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!-Chapter 1707 - 1697: Found for Xi Zelie
Chi Enen winced from the pain as he grabbed her wrist tightly and said, "There’s nothing wrong with my heart, you’ve misunderstood."
"If there’s nothing wrong with your heart, why did you bring in a cardiac specialist?" Li Beijue’s face was still unpleasant to look at, and he clutched her wrist so tightly that it felt like he was about to crush Chi Enen’s wrist bones. "Do you have heart disease? Or a terminal illness?"
"..."
Li Beijue’s breath almost stopped as he tightened his grip on her wrist, growling lowly, "Is it?"
Chi Enen was jerked slightly by him, and said helplessly, "You’ve watched too many Korean dramas. How can someone so easily have heart disease? I’m very healthy and haven’t even had a cold, let alone a terminal illness."
Did he think terminal illnesses could be bought like cabbages at a market, just because he wanted one?
"Then why are you looking for a cardiac specialist?" Li Beijue persisted on this question, determined to get to the bottom of it.
Chi Enen’s wrist bones were cracking under his grip, and if she didn’t speak soon, he might actually break her bones. She told the truth, "I was finding one for Xi Zelie."
The previously agitated man suddenly seemed to be frozen as if an acupressure point had been pressed.
"I accidentally overheard that his heart isn’t in good condition, and since my grandma knows some cardiac specialists, I thought I’d ask them to come and take a look..." She spoke slowly, watching the reaction of the tall, cold-faced man as she did.
Sure enough, Li Beijue’s face grew darker, his thin lips twitching as he repeated her words like a parrot, "Accidentally overheard... From whom, and where?"
Xi Zelie had only just arrived, and when did Chi Enen have the chance to be alone with him? Why didn’t he know about it?
It felt like a stone was pressing against his chest, making it hard for him to breathe. He knew full well that Chi Enen couldn’t possibly have anything with Xi Zelie, yet his heart felt compressed, as if stricken with a terminal illness, barely able to breathe.
Xi Zelie...
He had always known that Xi Zelie still had romantic intentions towards Chi Enen, just as he did before.
Moreover, unlike Kang Hao, Xi Zelie was like a cheetah lurking in the darkness.
Waiting anytime, anywhere, ready to snatch Chi Enen away mercilessly if given the chance.
Unfortunately, Xi Zelie was not like someone like Kang Hao. He was deep-minded; he clearly still liked Chi Enen, yet never openly said it to her. Because he never said it, he silently lingered around Chi Enen like a protector, making Chi Enen see and feel a sense of indebtedness...
Constantly influencing Chi Enen subtly with this kindness.
If ever there were a crack in their relationship, he believed Xi Zelie would absolutely seize the opportunity to pry open Chi Enen’s heart.
He knew it!
He knew Xi Zelie was the cheetah lurking in the darkness! 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
With his past nature, he wouldn’t have been lenient and would have resolved the danger before anything could happen.
But not now...
Xi Zelie has helped Nuonuo multiple times and even saved this woman. If he really made a move against Xi Zelie, and Chi Enen found out, she’d definitely have a fallout with him.
Li Beijue held his breath.
A wave of unprecedented agitation surged in his chest.
The agitation of knowing the man beside him was eyeing his possession, yet being unable to crush that person made him furrow his eyebrows——
