President, please comfort me.
Chapter 9 Do you want me to carry you?
"It seems this young lady is more sensitive to pain. This is generally a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require special treatment. Applying heat to the affected area can promote blood circulation and help improve the symptoms."
Xiao He stood aside and asked the question, while Wen Qi sat quietly listening. After asking the question, she let the doctor go back.
Not long after, Xiao He's phone rang; it was A-Chen calling.
He immediately turned on speakerphone, and Ah Chen's voice came through: "Brother Xiao, it's all taken care of."
Although Ah Chen sometimes lacks discernment, he always handles important matters flawlessly, so Xiao He completely trusts him. However, seeing Wen Qi's nervous and worried expression, he still asked, "How did you do it?"
Ah Chen was also stumped by his question. After a pause, he said, "Oh, I took him for a full body check-up, and the doctor said the wound was nothing serious."
"We hired a caregiver for him, notified his family, he didn't accept the check, and we've given him paid leave so he can go back to work when he's better."
"Okay, go to the All-Sea Feast again, or contact the Tang Dynasty to see what's going on there."
"I know, I'm already on my way."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao He looked at Wen Qi and raised an eyebrow: "Did you hear that? He's fine."
Wen Qi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him with great gratitude: "Yes, thank you."
Seeing her like that, Xiao He suddenly felt like teasing her, for some reason: "How are you going to thank me? Verbal thanks don't mean much."
Wen Qi was slightly taken aback, and after realizing what she meant, she asked sincerely, "So what do you want?"
Xiao He stared at her for a few seconds, pretended to think for a moment, and then said casually, "Treat me to dinner."
"I don't want to eat out." Afraid she wouldn't understand, he added two seconds later.
Upon hearing this, Wen Qi thought it was easy and smiled, "Okay, I'll cook for you when I'm better."
Logically, the two should have run out of things to talk about. Wen Qi thought Xiao He would go back to his own room, but after an awkward silence, Xiao He looked at her pretty face, scrutinized it for a while, and then asked, "Do you want to wash your face?"
Wen Qi belatedly realized she was still wearing makeup and nodded, "Yes, I wanted to remove my makeup, but..."
Xiao walked over decisively and held out his hand to her: "Do you want me to carry you?"
Wen Qi reflexively opened her mouth to refuse, but Xiao He simply picked her up and carried her to the bathroom: "What are you trying to prove? Don't you want to treat me to dinner?"
At 1.7 meters tall, Wen Qi still looked tiny nestled in Xiao He's 1.9-meter-tall arms. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, and this time it wasn't so awkward anymore. Wen Qi looked up at him with genuine kindness and said, "No, thank you for today. I'd like to hire a caregiver to come to our house tomorrow, is that alright?"
Xiao He's Adam's apple bobbed: "No need, I'll have Aunt Zhang come and take care of you, the auntie who was in the kitchen the other day."
After saying that, he looked down at her and continued, "From now on, eat breakfast at home. Don't be stubborn."
A few seconds later, she tried to justify herself: "So that Mom won't say I didn't feed you."
Wen Qi pursed her lips and said defiantly, "Who's being stubborn?" She seemed to be muttering something under her breath.
Xiao pretended not to hear, since he couldn't get anything out of this topic. He placed her in front of the sink and went outside, saying, "I'll wait for you outside. Call me when you're done."
"it is good."

After Xiao He left with Wen Qi, A Chen then sent Zhou Zhou away.
After Tang Chao and Ye Lin, along with other police officers, arrived, they went to the police station with relevant personnel. The lawyers from the Xiao Group were already waiting there.
When Ah Chen was on his way to the restaurant, he contacted Tang Chao. Tang Chao said that the person had been detained first, and the rest had been handled by a lawyer. After hearing this, Ah Chen turned around and drove towards Chunfengli again.
As soon as Ye Lin came out of the police station, he couldn't wait to start asking Tang Chaoxiao about his relationship with Wen Qi: "Hey, did you get a good look at that girl today? I saw her clearly, she's super hot, is she a college student? When did she appear next to Brother Xiao?"
While pondering how to explain their relationship, Tang Chao replied, "Don't get any ideas about her. She's not like the other women you have. She's my aunt's friend's child and she's currently living in the Xiao family's house."
Ye Lin looked at him with disdain: "What are you thinking? How can your thoughts be so filthy? I'm just surprised that Brother Xiao suddenly has a woman by his side, and such a beautiful one at that. I didn't even know. Tch."
Tang Chao ignored him and walked toward the car. Ye Lin didn't mind and followed him, patting him on the shoulder: "Since you're staying at the Xiao family's house, you'll definitely have to meet in the future. I'll organize a gathering sometime and bring you along to get to know each other."
Tang Chao rolled his eyes at him: "What's the use of telling me? You're not living in my house. If you're so capable, go talk to Xiao He." Without waiting for Ye Lin's response, he got into the driver's seat and slammed the car door shut.
Ye Lin scoffed, then got into the car, thinking to himself that if he said that, he really would have to go.

When Ah Chen returned to Spring Breeze, he called Xiao He and relayed Tang Chao's words.
Xiao He was waiting for Wen Qi to wash up in her bedroom. When he saw that she hadn't come out yet, he lowered his voice and said with a hint of ruthlessness, "Give him a lesson, teach him a good lesson, and then have the lawyer arrange for him to stay in jail for a few years."
Ah Chen understood: "Yes."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao He heard the bathroom door open and quickly went over to support her: "Didn't I tell you to call me? Don't you want your back to get better?"
Wen Qi looked up at him. Her face, now without makeup, was full of collagen, her skin was still fair, and her lips were full and red.
Her eyes were still a little red from crying, and her eyelids were a little swollen, but it didn't affect her beauty at all. She looked pitiful and heartbreaking.
Wen Qi smiled, revealing her white teeth, and said, "I guess the painkillers are working, I feel much better now."
Xiao He helped her lie down on the bed, his tone calm but with a hint of displeasure: "I'll take a shower first, then come back to sleep later."
Wen Qi was startled, her voice trembling: "Ah! You...you're coming to sleep here?"
Xiao He was provoked by her reaction, and his tone instantly turned sour: "You wish! I'll sleep in the living room so you won't be left without help if you need anything in the middle of the night."
Wen Qi was about to suggest that he go back to his room, since she didn't usually get up at night, but seeing his serious expression, she changed her mind and said, "Oh, okay, then thank you."
Xiao He hummed in agreement and walked out, then suddenly remembered that she didn't eat seafood, yet she had gone to the All-Seafood Feast today. She turned back and asked, "Are you hungry?"
Wen Qi hadn't eaten much tonight, and after all that fuss, she was actually a little hungry, but not wanting to bother him, she shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry, you go take a shower."
Xiao He glanced at her, walked out, and after returning to his room, instructed A-Chen to have food delivered: "No seafood, make several kinds of beef, and some desserts."
