After Transmigrating into a Scum Gong, the Rich Young Master Got Pregnant with My Child - Chapter 6

Chapter 6

Chu Siyu was reliable in her work. Lu Zhaoyi hadn’t sought out He Shuoyan, so she naturally wouldn’t either. The person she found was a stranger to Lu Zhaoyi, whose face didn’t match any name he knew. Fortunately, the man introduced himself: “My name is Yue Senke.”

Lu Zhaoyi thought: Someone who never appeared in the original novel.

Lu Zhaoyi had no intention of wasting time with him. He gestured toward the master bedroom: “Go take a look at him, quickly.”

Yue Senke walked in and said to him: “President Lu, you should pay attention to self-control.”

Lu Zhaoyi didn’t reply, afraid that opening his mouth would result in him swearing and scaring the doctor away.

Yue Senke entered before Lu Zhaoyi. When Lu Zhaoyi caught up, he saw the doctor looking at him with a very deep, meaningful gaze.

What? Did you realize you judged me unfairly and feel embarrassed? Then apologize!

Yue Senke said, “The little beauty President Lu is keeping has severe anemia. You need to pay more attention to his health.”

“Go back and get the medicine. I’ll watch him.”

Lu Zhaoyi’s words clearly meant he wanted to dismiss him. Yue Senke smiled ambiguously: “See you later, President Lu.”

Lu Zhaoyi didn’t say much, only: “Go and come back quickly.”

Lu Zhaoyi didn’t really care about seeing him, but Li Xiao’s health couldn’t be ignored without medicine. He stood by the bed, mentally cursing both the original author and the Scum Gong. How could either of them bear to abuse someone like Li Xiao?

He watched for a while longer before Li Xiao woke up. He quickly handed over the prepared water. Li Xiao took it and drank a few small sips, then asked: “President Lu, can you stay with me for a little while?”

Lu Zhaoyi naturally nodded. As a patient, he was certainly allowed to make requests.

Li Xiao reached out to hold his hand. Lu Zhaoyi took the initiative and extended his hand for him to hold.

I’m only indulging you because you’re sick. Don’t misunderstand this!

Yue Senke returned very quickly. Hearing the knock, Lu Zhaoyi told Li Xiao he would open the door. Li Xiao turned to look at him, still reluctant to let him leave.

“I’ll be right back to accompany you.”

Only after hearing this did Li Xiao nod.

“The little beauty is awake, is he?” Yue Senke joked, “President Lu, you took so long to open the door.”

Lu Zhaoyi didn’t answer him, but hurried back inside. He sat down by the bed and immediately took Li Xiao’s hand.

Yue Senke entered a moment later: “You are so affectionate, President Lu.”

Lu Zhaoyi was truly too lazy to deal with him. He Shuoyan was already rude enough; had finding a replacement not improved the situation at all?

Is there not a single normal person who works as a doctor in this novel’s world? Dammit!

Lu Zhaoyi directly asked: “What medicine did you bring him?”

Li Xiao’s eyes were fixed on the medicine box. The moment Yue Senke took out the first box, Li Xiao frowned, which Lu Zhaoyi immediately noticed.

Lu Zhaoyi quickly asked him: “What’s wrong with this medicine? Is there a problem?”

“This one is very bitter.”

After Li Xiao spoke, Lu Zhaoyi asked Yue Senke: “Doctor Yue, do you have anything else?”

Yue Senke clicked his tongue, then took out another box. Lu Zhaoyi immediately looked at Li Xiao’s expression.

Li Xiao told him: “I’m allergic to this one; I can’t take it.”

Lu Zhaoyi and Yue Senke were both stunned. Lu Zhaoyi continued to ask: “Anything else?”

“I do, but if he’s allergic to this one, the others probably won’t be usable either.”

Yue Senke said, and Li Xiao asked him to bring the medicine box closer so he could look. Indeed, only the one he said was bitter was safe for him to use.

“Then we’ll keep this one,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Doctor Yue, thank you for coming out so late.”

Yue Senke shook his head: “Taking payment, it’s naturally no trouble, especially since I didn’t manage to help much.”

No sooner had Yue Senke left than Li Xiao said, “President Lu, did I… cause too much trouble?”

“Of course not,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Li Xiao, get up and take your medicine.”

Li Xiao frowned, his face full of refusal.

Lu Zhaoyi said: “Li Xiao, take the medicine, and I’ll sleep with you. Otherwise, I won’t stay here today.”

Hearing this, Li Xiao finally nodded, reluctantly agreeing.

Lu Zhaoyi used hot water to dissolve the medicine, then added cold water to reach the right temperature before bringing it to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao took the bowl. Lu Zhaoyi immediately went back to the kitchen to make him a bowl of sweet soup.

It was as if he was afraid Li Xiao couldn’t handle the bitterness.

However, he was overthinking things. When he returned, Li Xiao’s bowl of medicine hadn’t been touched.

Lu Zhaoyi looked at him, then at the bowl in his hand. Lu Zhaoyi put down the sweet soup and took the bowl of medicine from Li Xiao.

Lu Zhaoyi asked him: “If I feed you, will you drink it?”

Li Xiao nodded. Lu Zhaoyi said: “Don’t lie to me again.”

Li Xiao lowered his eyes and said: “President Lu, I’m sorry.”

“Stop apologizing,” Lu Zhaoyi adjusted the pillow. “Be a good boy, sit up and take your medicine.”

Lu Zhaoyi didn’t scoop much at once, but even with just a small sip, Li Xiao frowned intensely.

Lu Zhaoyi felt a little anxious. It seemed Li Xiao wouldn’t be able to finish this bowl even if it cooled down.

Thinking this, Li Xiao wasn’t the only one frowning; Lu Zhaoyi also felt uncomfortable. However, there was nothing he could do. Cursing wouldn’t change Li Xiao’s health condition right now.

“I’ll do it myself,” Li Xiao said. “President Lu, don’t worry.”

Before Lu Zhaoyi could react, Li Xiao had already taken the bowl from his hands. His expression towards the medicine wasn’t like looking at a bowl of medicine, but rather like looking at an enemy.

Although his expression was truly one of deep sorrow, Li Xiao still drank the entire bowl of bitter medicine in one go. Seeing him finish it all, Lu Zhaoyi finally relaxed a little.

Lu Zhaoyi handed him the sweet soup, and after feeding Li Xiao several sips, Lu Zhaoyi asked him: “Does your mouth still taste bitter?”

Li Xiao smiled and shook his head: “Thank you, President Lu.”

Lu Zhaoyi also shook his head: “You’re too polite.”

He took both bowls out and then poured Li Xiao some mouthwash to bring back in.

“President Lu, I’ve caused you too much trouble today,” Li Xiao said. “You should rest quickly.”

Lu Zhaoyi said: “Alright.”

Young Master, you are so delicate and weak. If I don’t take care of you, my conscience won’t allow it.

Lu Zhaoyi lay down beside Li Xiao. Li Xiao secretly looked at him, then quietly asked: “Can you kiss me?”

“Okay.” Lu Zhaoyi remembered the stolen kiss earlier, closed his eyes, and gently kissed him on the cheek.

Li Xiao immediately embraced him. Lu Zhaoyi sighed internally and said to Li Xiao: “Sleep, it’s very late.”

“Good.”

Seeing Li Xiao’s beautiful smiling eyes, Lu Zhaoyi gently scratched his nose: “Good night.”

I can play the Scum Gong, but I have my own principles. Hurting Li Xiao’s body is absolutely unacceptable.

After being busy until this hour, Lu Zhaoyi also fell asleep soon after.

Continuation: The Morning After

When Lu Zhaoyi woke up, he couldn’t feel Li Xiao’s body heat next to him.

He’s awake?

Lu Zhaoyi quickly got out of bed. Just as he reached the living room, Li Xiao saw him and smiled, saying: “President Lu.”

“Why are you up so early when you should be resting?”

Lu Zhaoyi’s tone was somewhat stern, clearly showing dissatisfaction with Li Xiao’s behavior. Li Xiao knew he was worried about him, so he said: “I’m used to it. It’s fine.”

Used to what? Used to fainting from severe anemia or getting up early to busy himself for the Scum Gong?

I’ve transmigrated into this world; who wants you to be this subservient?

“Li Xiao,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Go rest.”

Li Xiao was about to refuse when he heard Lu Zhaoyi say: “I’ll stay home with you for the next few days.”

“What about Yuehe…”

“What about Yuehe? The company employs a whole bunch of people; they’re not just there to collect a salary,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “If you don’t want to see me, I’ll leave right now.”

“Of course not,” Li Xiao quickly said. “Thank you, President Lu.”

“Don’t mention it.” Lu Zhaoyi saw him sit down and suddenly felt a mischievous impulse. “You just need to take your medicine properly.”

Just as he expected, Li Xiao’s expression instantly froze. Lu Zhaoyi walked over and ruffled his hair: “I’m just teasing.”

Li Xiao sighed in relief, only to hear Lu Zhaoyi continue: “I’ve arranged for Chu Siyu to get you a personal assistant and a nutritionist. If you don’t like taking medicine, fine, but you still need to nourish your body, right?”

“President Lu, you don’t need to bother with all that,” Li Xiao said. “I can take care of myself.”

“Ancestor, please save your breath. Last night was scary enough; don’t give me a repeat performance,” Lu Zhaoyi suddenly remembered something, and quickly added, “And please don’t apologize.”

Li Xiao nodded, sitting obediently on the sofa, drinking the warm milk Lu Zhaoyi had given him through a straw.

“Why haven’t the people Chu Siyu arranged arrived yet?” Lu Zhaoyi said. “How inefficient can they be?”

“President Lu, are you hungry?” Li Xiao said, “I…”

Lu Zhaoyi could guess he was thinking of cooking: “You what? You sit right here, and don’t worry about anything else.”

Li Xiao stopped talking, silently drinking his milk with his head down.

“Did I scare you again?” Lu Zhaoyi saw his reaction and said, “I apologize. I promise to change in the future.”

Li Xiao shook his head: “President Lu is fine no matter what.”

Is that what you thought when the Scum Gong messed with you and then abandoned you?

Li Xiao, have some backbone! Why are you still like this?

“Don’t say things like that in the future,” Lu Zhaoyi sighed. “You never listen to anything I say.”

Tears welled up in Li Xiao’s eyes.

Oh no… not this scene again…

“I’m sorry,” Lu Zhaoyi said. “Ancestor, I was wrong.”

Li Xiao shook his head: “It’s my…”

Lu Zhaoyi’s mind was a mess, and just then, the doorbell rang.

I take back what I said about criticizing Chu Siyu! The timing couldn’t be better! I should get a banner made for her! No! A raise!

The newcomers, a man and a woman, called out in unison: “President Lu, Young Master Li.”

Lu Zhaoyi nodded: “Chu Siyu should have briefed you.”

The woman, who looked to be in her thirties, introduced herself to Lu Zhaoyi and Li Xiao: “President Lu, I’m Jiang Luo, and this is Lu Xiaofeng.”

Lu Zhaoyi nodded. He was about to get up and instruct them, but Li Xiao tugged at his hand, so Lu Zhaoyi gave up.

Forget it. I don’t have anything special to tell them. Anyone who catches Chu Siyu’s eye must be competent.

Jiang Luo and Lu Xiaofeng didn’t say much more. They took out their own catering trays and arranged the food they had brought. After they finished, they informed Lu Zhaoyi.

“Li Xiao, get up and eat.”

Li Xiao nodded. Lu Zhaoyi stood up first, then held out his hand for Li Xiao. Li Xiao smiled and took his hand to stand up.

They held hands walking from the living room to the dining table. Lu Zhaoyi knew Li Xiao would be happy, so he had no objection.

He told himself: I’m just taking care of a patient. There is absolutely no other meaning.

When they sat down, Li Xiao seemed reluctant to let go. Lu Zhaoyi gently kissed the back of his hand: “Li Xiao, eat.”

With that, Li Xiao finally nodded. Lu Zhaoyi relaxed once he saw Li Xiao’s attention finally focus on the dining table.

Lu Zhaoyi thought: I’ve given you all the caution I’ve accumulated over twenty years. You absolutely must cheer up, Young Master.

If you figure things out soon, we can both go our separate ways!
