Chapter 223: We Have to Do Better
Naturally, no one answered Jian Bai's call.
After the call was automatically hung up, Jian Bai's frown deepened.
His instinct told him something was wrong.
So, Jian Bai strode out of the lounge.
"Eh? Jian Bai, where are you going?"
Jian Man, who was about to go to the conference room to find Jian Bai, saw Jian Bai leaving in a hurry and asked hurriedly.
"I have something urgent to do so I'm leaving now. We can talk about other things later."
In the time it took to say a word, Jian Bai disappeared from Jian Man's sight.
Although Jian Man was curious, she didn't dwell on it anymore.
After all, we have waited for so long, so there is no need to rush.
She had finally made it. Once Jian Bai was able to take over, she could go out and live freely!
...
Jian Bai drove quickly home.
Coincidentally, when Jian Bai got home, he saw Fu Yanci carrying Mi Li out of the car.
"Ali!"
Jian Bai didn't dare to delay and ran forward immediately.
"Ali, what happened? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Jian Bai looked back and forth, but because Mi Li was wrapped tightly, he couldn't see anything. He could only see that his face was very pale, almost bloodless.
When Mi Li saw Jian Bai's anxious look at the end, the little anger she had left disappeared.
But she still wanted to tease Jian Bai.
"Brother Yanci, carry me in."
Mi Li simply lowered her eyelids, not looking at Jian Bai, nor replying to him.
"it is good."
Fu Yanci didn't even look at Jian Bai, and walked into the villa holding Mi Li.
Seeing this, Jian Bai became even more anxious.
Besides anxiety, there is also regret.
Ali called him when he must have needed him, but he didn't answer the call!
Jian Bai followed the two into the villa.
Fu Yanci carried Mi Li directly to the room on the second floor.
After putting Mi Li into bed, he turned on the air conditioner, adjusted the temperature to a comfortable level, and then asked:
"Are you cold, Ali?"
Mi Li shook her head and said;
"It's not cold, thank you, Brother Yanci."
"Don't say thank you to me, you're welcome."
Fu Yanci spoke gently.
Jian Bai was watching the two of them from the side. He couldn't get a word in and was really anxious.
Perhaps the only thing that makes me feel at ease is that Ali is okay.
Mi Li glanced at Jian Bai from the corner of his eye, and seeing that he was really panicking, he said to Fu Yanci:
"Brother Yanci, I'm hungry."
Hearing this, Fu Yanci also understood, so he said:
"Okay, I'm going to cook."
After saying that, he touched Mi Li's head and turned away.
After Fu Yanci left, Jian Bai pinched the corner of his clothes and squatted down beside the bed.
"Ali, are you feeling unwell?"
Jian Bai said softly.
The main reason is that Mi Li's complexion is really bad now, like a porcelain doll that will break if touched.
But Mi Li herself didn't know, because she didn't feel uncomfortable at the moment.
"I called you today, why didn't you answer?"
Mi Li didn't answer him, but asked.
"I'm sorry, can you forgive me this time?"
Jian Bai didn't explain. After all, if he didn't answer the phone, he didn't answer it. There was no reason to justify it.
"Is it because I didn't answer the phone that you..."
To prevent Jian Bai from taking the blame on himself, Mi Li interrupted him directly:
"No, I just had a slight fever. I got the shot and now I'm fine."
Mi Li didn't tell the whole story, but Jian Bai already understood the general idea from these few words.
Ali called him when she was feeling the worst, but he didn't answer. Later, her condition became so serious that she needed an injection.
"I'm sorry, Ali, it's all my fault."
If he had received the call, maybe Ali would be better than she is now and wouldn't be so upset.
It seemed like he had never taken good care of Ali, and always made Ali sad and uncomfortable.
Mi Li didn't expect that she had deliberately teased him, which really made him feel guilty.
"Bai Bai, I don't blame you. You didn't answer the call on purpose, right?"
Mi Li asked.
"But whether there was a reason or not, the fact is that I didn't receive the call."
Jian Bai's self-blame and regret were written directly on his face.
"It could have been much better. I was the one who insisted on going out to buy medicine, so I'm also responsible. I don't blame you, and you shouldn't blame yourself. Look, I'm still feeling uncomfortable. Do you still need me to comfort you?"
After Mi Li finished speaking, Jian Bai immediately put away the expression on his face.
Ali was right. It was Ali who was obviously feeling unwell, but he did not sympathize with Ali and not only did he not say anything, he even asked Ali to comfort him.
Jian Bai just felt that he still had a lot to learn and improve.
He needs to do better, even better.
"Ali, are you feeling unwell now? Do you want some water?"
Fu Yanci had already gone to cook, so Jian Bai didn't ask Mi Li if she was hungry.
"I want some water."
Mi Li spoke.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll get you some warm water."
After saying that, Jian Bai walked out the door.
Looking at Jian Bai's appearance, Mi Li felt that his goal had been achieved again.
In fact, the longer she is in contact with them, the more these people will be controlled by her.
It seems that this time, the incident was caused indirectly by Jian Bai not answering the phone, which led to Mi Li's serious condition.
But in fact, most of the responsibility comes from Mi Li himself.
She couldn't control her emotions and insisted on running outside to buy medicine. She caught a cold and had a severe fever.
She could have easily called the errand boy from home, or called the security guard, or even called the ambulance directly.
Of course, this is all rational thinking.
In this kind of situation, there is no question of who is more at fault.
Only the one who cares more will feel that what they have done is not good enough.
As long as Mi Li shows that she doesn't blame him, he will feel more guilty and will naturally care more about him later.
Although it is a routine, even among ordinary couples, if they want to maintain the freshness, they have to use some small routines.
Preserving freshness is a very important part of love.
So these little tricks are very common, and Mi Li doesn't feel guilty about doing so.
After waiting for two minutes, Jian Bai came up with warm water and a fluffy blanket.
"Here, drink some water."
After Jian Bai helped Mi Li finish drinking the water, he covered Mi Li with the blanket that had just been dried in the dryer downstairs.
"This one is more comfortable."
Jian Bai took the original quilt aside and folded it.
Mi Li felt much more comfortable as she felt the warm and soft blanket on her body.
"Aren't you busy?"
Mi Li suddenly felt a little drowsy and asked in a daze.
"I'm not busy. Are you tired? Take a nap. I'll call you for dinner later."
Jian Bai sat beside the bed, gently patting Mi Li's shoulders and coaxing her to sleep.
Mi Li also felt her eyelids getting heavier, so she fell asleep.
Jian Bai patted her gently until Mi Li's breathing became steady and she fell into a sound sleep.
