Dongfang Yu was injured. Therefore, He Meilian had him stay at home temporarily so that someone could take care of him.
He had a broken rib and the doctor had instructed him to rest more.
The traditional wisdom is that it takes a hundred days to recover from bone injuries, so he should be bedridden for at least seventeen or eighteen days.
However, Dongfang Yu resumed work on the very next day.
And he was somewhat mad in doing soâ¦
As He Meilian could not stop him, she reluctantly forced Hai Xiaotang to come over.
As soon as Hai Xiaotang walked into the living room, He Meilian came up to her and explained everything.
âXiaotang, 1 had no other choice but to call you in. I hope you wonât feel irritated. The main issue is that Yuyu is not cooperating with his treatment.â
Hai Xiaotang was not upset, she didnât mince her words and directly asked.
âMadam, may 1 know what you expect me to do?â
Seeing her straightforwardness, He Meilian couldnât help but laugh in relief, âJust persuade him to rest more. If he continues working this madly, he will collapse sooner or later.â
âBut Dongfang Yu might not listen to me.â
âIâm certain he will listen to you. Even if he still doesnât, I wouldnât trouble you.
I just hope you could try your best to persuade him.â
âOkay, 1 understand.â Hai Xiaotang nodded.
He Meilian laughingly said, âYuyu is in the study right now. I will have the butler escort you there.â
âHmm.â
Hai Xiaotang followed the butler upstairs.
When they arrived at the study, the butler respectfully knocked on the door, âMaster, may we enter?â
After a moment, Dongfang Yuâs cold distant voice could be heard from inside.
âCome in!â
The butler opened the door and smilingly said to Hai Xiaotang, âMiss Hai, please come in.â
As soon as Hai Xiaotang stepped into the study, she was greeted with the strong smell of stale tobacco.
When Dongfang Yu heard the words âMiss Haiâ, his action of reading the document paused slightly.
But in a blink, he went back to normal and didnât even raise his head to look at her.
Hai Xiaotang assumed that Dongfang Yu was simply working, but it turned out that he was truly a bit mad.
There were piles and piles of documents in front of him.
In the ashtray by his hand, many cigarette butts were crushed out.
As per her knowledge, Dongfang Yu rarely smoked. However, he was smoking a lot nowâ¦
A seriously injured patient smoking heavily and working non-stop, wasnât he courting death?
No wonder the madam was forced to drag her here.
Hai Xiaotang stepped forward and bluntly said, âThe madam asked me to advise you to rest more, Dongfang Yu. What youâre doing is harmful to your health. Hope you could cherish your body a bit more.â
Dongfang Yu didnât seem to hear, he just stared coldly at the documents in front of him.
Seeing him deliberately ignoring her, Hai Xiaotang did not get angry, âDongfang Yu, what are you doing this for? Your body is your own. If you donât cherish it, no one else can do it for you.â
He still did not react.
Hai Xiaotang couldnât help but scoff, âDonât tell me, youâre doing this because 1 rejected you. 1 didnât expect you to be this childish.â
The man finally looked up at her after putting down the documents.
He lit a cigarette, took a light puff, and smoke immediately veiled his grim eyes.
âHai Xiaotang, who told you that Iâm doing all this because of you?â He sneered at her coldly, as if mocking her self-created imagination.
Hai Xiaotang didnât take his bait, she lightly said, âBetter not be because of me. Regardless, 1 am here to persuade you. If you donât listen, thereâs nothing much I can do.â
âPersuade me? Didnât you say that you donât care whether 1 live or die? Now on what grounds are you concerning about me, what are you trying to do, flirt with me?â
