Chapter 149: Didn’t Eat Breakfast, Anemic!

After what felt like an eternity, they finally arrived at the expert consultation room, and she was at last set down.

Before she could catch her breath, she heard the man’s overbearing and forceful command, “Give her a medical checkup. 1 want a thorough examination of her entire body, inside and out!”

“A full body checkup?” The doctor hesitated, looking at Chi Enen with the stare one might give a psycho. The girl seemed perfectly fine; why would she need a full body checkup? Could it be… she’s contracted some obscure illness?

Feeling embarrassed under his gaze, Chi Enen tugged on the man’s sleeve and whispered, “Li Beijue, I really am fine; there’s no need for a checkup.”

“You call what happened just now fine?!”

There was a tone of unmistakable displeasure in his voice.

Knowing his temper, Chi Enen hurriedly explained, “Didn’t you turn around immediately? The car didn’t even touch me.”

“It really didn’t touch you?” Li Beijue was skeptical.

“Really.”

“Then why do you look so pale?”

It’s because you scared me.

Although that’s what she was thinking, she didn’t dare say it out loud. Instead, she awkwardly explained, “…Maybe it’s because 1 didn’t eat breakfast, so I’m a bit anemic.”

After speaking, she herself felt that the excuse was incredibly foolish. Her eyes shifted away for a moment, and by accident, she caught a glimpse of his waist, causing her expression to change instantly.

“What happened to your waist?”

“It’s nothing.”

Today, he was wearing a T-neck black thin sweater, looking distinguished and full of heroic spirit. But on the left side of his waist, the area of the sweater had been stained with a spreading bloodstain. She hadn’t noticed it earlier because the color of his clothes was so dark, but now, the blood looked as if it was seeping through.

Was he injured?

All at once, Chi Enen remembered the car that had crashed into the parterre, its front end misshapen. It must have been then! Her heart gave a sudden thud, and she rose to check.

As she approached, she was pushed away. Caught off guard, she nearly collided with a nearby chair.

Seeing the blood continuing to leak out, Chi Enen grew anxious, bit her lip, and moved closer again, “Li Beijue, are you injured? Let me see.”

No sooner had she come close than she was pushed away again. The cold-faced man stared at her with indifference, his thin lips met as he said, “Didn’t you say you hate me? Why do you care? Are you not afraid that if you come close to me again, I will imprison you?”

“…” Chi Enen pursed her lips.

He should have never brought it up; now she couldn’t stop the memories of those confined days from flooding back.

Li Beijue saw the retreat in her eyes and wished he could strangle her right there. Yet, despite the torment in his heart, shattered as it was, he still couldn’t bring himself to do it. He just couldn’t let go! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Damn it!

Had he desecrated this woman’s ancestral grave in a previous life? Was that why heaven had sent her to punish him in this life?

Li Beijue’s face shifted between shades of pale and dark, finally settling into a livid hue as he glared furiously at the doctor, who seemed rooted to the spot, and bellowed, “Get out!”

The doctor snapped out of his daze, scrambling out of there; he even pulled the door closed behind him.

With an impassive face, Beijue kicked over a chair in front of him, then sat on the bed next to it, and commanded stiffly, “Come here!”

“You wanted to see, didn’t you? Come here!” He was being obnoxious and impatient!

As she approached him, he lifted his shirt, revealing a lean and toned waist—

Chi Enen saw a mass of crisscrossing scars on his body, most of the wounds had scabbed over, but a small section had torn open. She couldn’t help but gasp, reached out her hand, and delicately touched them, as if afraid that even the slightest contact might hurt him, then quickly withdrew her hand.. Biting her lower lip hard, she asked without thinking, “How did you get these?”
