Chapter 88 I'm so sad
The fallen shoe lay crookedly on the ground.
Her feet, encased in stockings, were fully displayed before David.
Xiao Lili's feet were a bit fleshy, looked very clean, and didn't get damp. Her red nail polish looked even more charming under her black stockings.
Because the stockings on her feet were stretched taut, that area looked even thinner and more transparent.
The toes were curled upwards, seemingly teasing, making it hard for David to look away.
Xiao Lili remained in that position, lowered the temperature, and felt it for about ten seconds. It did feel a bit cooler, so she put down the remote control and slowly got off the bed.
As soon as he sat down, he made a "hmm" sound.
"I feel much better. The air conditioning in this hospital works really well, much better than at home."
She feigned calmness on her face, but in reality, she was scheming with eight hundred different ideas running through her mind at once.
She knew exactly what kind of man he was, and she believed she had handled him perfectly. While she wouldn't say she had Dawei completely infatuated, her actions just now had at least stirred something in his heart.
I glanced at Dawei; his breathing was already a little erratic.
"Oh, why are you sweating? If you're hot, don't cover yourself with the blanket." Xiao Lili was about to lift the blanket.
Dawei pressed down hard and even used his legs to hold the blanket down.
"No, no, it's good to sweat it out. You don't know, this medicine prescribed by the famous doctor in Kyoto is very nourishing and will make you sweat."
"That must be so uncomfortable. Lift the blanket and let some air in." Xiao Lili looked at Dawei with concern, pulled the blanket, but couldn't move it.
"No, no, really, it's fine this way. You can't catch a cold after sweating. I don't feel uncomfortable, I'm okay."
Dawei pressed the blanket tightly against his head, but in reality, both of them claimed they were pulling at each other, and they were just lying.
They said things like, "Dawei is feeling unwell," "Dawei is afraid of catching a cold," and "He's been taking a lot of tonics..."
These are all just excuses.
One wanted to see what Dawei looked like under the covers, while the other didn't want to be seen—it was that simple.
The ambiguity between adults often gets straight to the point, without any of the superficialities.
It was all hard-fought, real, and every move went straight for the target.
Seeing his nervous expression, Xiao Lili was secretly pleased, which meant she had guessed correctly; his evasiveness meant there was a problem.
Chen Dawei had an idea.
If that's the case, then we can't keep flirting; we have to back off.
That's what makes it interesting.
Just like fishing, when the fish gets close to the bait, you pull the bait back a little to tease the fish. When the fish gets anxious, it will pounce and bite the bait – this is called teasing fishing.
"County Chief, how are you feeling right now? Do you have a headache?" she asked softly and gently.
"I feel much better, it doesn't hurt anymore, thank you for coming to see me."
Xiao Lili picked up a tissue and wiped the sweat from Dawei's forehead: "The doctors in Kyoto are really skilled. Look at the white hair on your forehead, it's much better now, it'll be all black soon."
"That's for sure. If a talented person doesn't belong to the organization, they will definitely be discovered."
Xiao Lili looked at him with admiration: "County Chief Chen, you speak so differently now. It's only been a few days, and I hardly recognize you anymore. You've changed so much, and your level is getting higher and higher."
David chuckled awkwardly, "Don't flatter me. You used to be my boss, and I learned everything from you. I'll have to rely on you for guidance in the future."
Xiao Lili suddenly reached under the covers, groped around, and grabbed Dawei's hand. She rubbed the back of his hand with her thumb and said, "Let's take care of each other. We're one."
The choice of words was quite intriguing. Dawei swallowed hard upon hearing it, then coughed awkwardly twice: "Director Xiao, you need to be careful with your words. Using the word 'one' can easily lead to misunderstandings."
Xiao Lili squeezed his hand and laughed, "Of course I understand, it's just the two of us here, isn't it?"
David withdrew his hand, and she looked away.
"Dawei...do you remember what you called me when you went to Kyoto?"
When you come back, you'll be the county magistrate.
When they see me, they call me "Director Xiao" instead of "Sister Xiao."
I'm so sad.
Dawei frantically pulled her hand out from under the covers: "Sis, don't do this..."
After Xiao Lili's hand was pulled away, she grabbed Dawei's hand and pressed it against her body, speaking hurriedly with a flushed face: "Do you remember?"
Last time in your office, you said you needed to see my true feelings before you dared to believe me.
I'm inviting you to my home when you have some free time so we can have a proper talk and I can show you my sincerity.
But you just won't come.
What's wrong, Dawei? Do you dislike me?
I've been waiting for you for so long...
She rubbed her face against Dawei's hand and even kissed Dawei's palm.
I originally intended to be restrained, to stop at the right point, and to tease the fish.
As a result, she, the angler, couldn't control herself and was speechless.
However, it's understandable, and it's been a long time since we've had this opportunity...
David pulled his hand back and stopped her: "Sis, this is a hospital, don't do this!"
"What's wrong with a hospital? Isn't it better...?"
She stood up, slowly raised her hand, and placed it on the button of her shirt.
David held his breath...
……
……
Knock knock.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Xiao Lili hurriedly got up, straightening her clothes and hair: "Who, who is it..."
"Excuse me, is County Chief Chen inside?"
"Oh, oh, yes, he... he's drinking water, he'll be right there."
Xiao Lili hurriedly put on her shoes, came out from behind the curtain, and went to open the door.
Lin Yunxing stood outside the door, carrying fruit and other items, and politely bowed to Xiao Lili in greeting.
Behind him stood a plump woman, his sister, who was not as tall as Xiao Lili and dressed very plainly.
"Hello, leader, I'd like to come and see County Chief Chen. Is that convenient?" Lin Yunxing asked.
Xiao Lili looked unhappy and glanced at him sideways.
What a silly goose, why did he have to come at this time?
Why would you ask such a question?
Can't you tell whether it's convenient or not?
You presumptuous fellow.
I almost... It's all your fault, you idiot!
"Yunxing, I'm inside. It's convenient. Come in." Dawei called out from inside.
Lin Yunxing had just arrived in the county and didn't recognize Xiao Lili. He nodded to her again and then led his sister Lin Qiufeng into the house.
"Dawei, what's wrong?"
When Lin Qiufeng saw Dawei on the hospital bed, she was immediately startled. Ignoring the presence of others, she rushed to Dawei's bedside and looked at him anxiously. She hovered her hand over Dawei's head, which was wrapped in gauze, and gestured back and forth, feeling extremely distressed.
Xiao Lili stood with her hands on her hips, her eyes practically overflowing with jealousy.
Stomping hard in her high heels.
Da da da!
The high heels clicked together, making a crisp sound.
He went to Dawei's bedside table, clattering the lunchbox and thermos, tidied up his things, and said irritably, "County Chief Chen, you're busy, I'm going back now."
"Director Xiao, drive carefully."
"Um."
Xiao Lili replied in a stern tone, then went downstairs and quickly walked towards her car.
"Couldn't you have come a little later?"
Who is this person?!
They have absolutely no manners.
It's so late, disturbing the patient's rest. Really.
Muttering to himself, he drove home angrily.
The car window was opened, and the damp night wind blew into the car. Xiao Lili calmed down a bit, put on some soothing music, and finally stopped being angry.
fair enough.
Too fast may not be a good thing.
Dawei lives in the same neighborhood as me, and his mother likes me very much.
There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
Take good care of your health, exercise more, and good food is worth the wait.
……
"Sister Qiufeng, don't worry, I'm fine," Dawei comforted Lin Qiufeng.
Lin Yunxing peeled a white sugar poppy lychee and handed it to Dawei: "That guy from earlier, he had such an elegant air about him."
Lin Qiufeng then remembered the woman she had just seen, and immediately frowned as she looked at Dawei.
