    Chapter 78.1 – Extra: Wife-Chasing Crematorium (Part 3)

    — STATUS: Unedited

      A young nurse could not help but step forward to correct the doctor. “You got it all wrong, Dr. Li. That’s his ex-wife and not his girlfriend.”

      “…………” Jiang Dai thought, ‘Sure enough, girls had a penchant for surfing the net, regardless of their occupations.’

      The primary doctor was a middle-aged individual who might not have a habit of delving into gossip online. Hence, he could not recognize both Jiang Dai and Huo Rongshen.

      Another nurse chimed in, “Do you not have access to the internet in your residence, Dr. Li? This is Leading Billionaire Jiang, who was ranked first on Forbes Billionaires List last year. How could you not even recognize her?!”

      Only then did the doctor survey her from top to toe and laugh sheepishly, “For a moment, I truly did not recognize her. She seems incredibly young that I assumed she was a celebrity……”

      As a matter of fact, Jiang Dai had always been pretty thin-skinned when it came to private matters. If strangers were to tease her under normal circumstances, she would undoubtedly be so embarrassed that she wished to bolt. 

      But now, she could not afford to feel abashed as she was entirely preoccupied with Huo Rongshen’s wound.

      Even so, she could still recall the scene at the main entrance of the Bao Li Building. At that time, she assumed it was merely a false alarm, and things were well, so much so that she nearly fell into a conversation with him. Only after exchanging a few words did she notice the acid had burned two massive holes in his exquisitely tailored suit.

      One on his right shoulder and another on his right upper arm.

      Moreover, Huo Rongshen was adamant and firmly refused to let her enter the operating room……

      Without any sense of jest in her tone, the frowning Jiang Dai demanded, “Why did you not let me enter the operating room? Don’t you know I have to take responsibility for anything that happened to you? After all, it occurred right at Bao Li Building’s entrance, and I’m the one that thug was after…… I feel even worse when you do this.”

      With an expression that was like a smile, yet not quite a smile, Huo Rongshen raised his left hand and rubbed her glabella. “Don’t frown.”

      His words only stoked the flames of rage burning in Jiang Dai’s heart. “Can you take this more seriously? I’m sure you know what my temper is like! Not only were you injured because of me, but you have also gotten such severe wounds. I’d feel so remorseful if you were to experience any issues in the future…… In fact, you should not have rushed forward at that time. With the amount of strength that thug exerted, there was no way you could evade it. If your timing was terrible, we could have both been fatally injured. I’ve always known you as a rational and calm person, so why on earth would you make such a meaningless sacrifice? What would happen if it had injured your face and not your arm and shoulder?”

      Immense rationality ran so deep within Jiang Dai that she could think of the consequences then and there. If it had been the face of the heir to the Huo Clan, she could not even begin to imagine what sort of crisis they would have to face. However, one thing was certain — it would cause a stir in the stock market.

      Even though only his arm was injured, one’s right arm was considered essential, right? If an issue were to occur to his right arm, what would he do for the rest of his life?

      Yet, Huo Rongshen appeared relaxed and calm, as though he had been bitten by a mosquito instead of being splashed by strong acid.

      He enunciated every word very carefully, “Your face is, of course, more important than me. Since I am a man, it matters not if I had been disfigured in the process. What’s more, the current situation is not nearly as severe since my wounds are superficial. It would take them no longer than a month to heal fully.”

      All of a sudden, a wave of fury crashed through Jiang Dai as Huo Rongshen’s countenance reminded her of their argument before their divorce.

      With that in mind, rage ran red through her brain at the thought that the last straw in their relationship was his usual calmness. It often made her seem willful and unreasonable.

      Biting her lips, she strove to rein in her emotions. “Then, why did you not let me enter the operating room? Although I’ve witnessed the entire process myself, you still have the gall to hide your wounds from me and even inform me that they are superficial! On top of that, you only allow the doctor to open the door after dressing your wounds, so how can I not assume the worst with all this hiding?!”

      Huo Rongshen’s face broke into a somewhat playful smile, and teased, “Are you feeling distressed for me?”

      The moment the words left his mouth, irritation etched into every corner of Jiang Dai’s face. One could tell she could explode in rage at any moment.

      He sighed, “Sure enough, your heart really doesn’t ache for me. That’s why I did not allow you to enter the operating room. You had much resentment and hatred for me that brought about a divorce, so wouldn’t you feel a delightable sense of revenge if you saw me in that state? Why would I allow you satisfaction when you have cursed me to be struck by lightning?”

      At this juncture, Huo Rongshen’s speech had rendered Jiang Dai stunned. Only after a long while did it dawn on her that he was messing with her to ease the tension.

      She began to feel tears welling up in her eyes. “How did you become like this? Weren’t you always austere in the past? How are you now cracking jokes and acting all mischievous and tacky?”

      Huo Rongshen lifted his uninjured left hand to cradle her face, his thumb grazing her soft cheek gently.

      “Look at how fussy you are with me. You’ve always criticized my dull and unromantic disposition when I know not how to joke. But now that I’ve mastered it, you have devised a new way to nitpick my faults.”

      Upon hearing that, Jiang Dai was at a loss for words.

      Only then did he become somewhat serious, and his voice was lowered to sheer depths. “Don’t worry, I’m alright. I can even head to work right now.”

      Since Jiang Dai could do nothing about him, she figured she would take a gander at his wounds when he had to change his dressing.

      In any case, she would never put her mind at ease unless she had seen the state of his wounds.

      Huo Rongshen asked with a slight pout, “I’m thirsty. Can I trouble you for a glass of water, President Jiang?”

      Jiang Dai got up and poured him some water without forgetting to slip on another two layers of paper cups. After ensuring the water temperature was warm, she placed the cup to his mouth. “Here you go. The water isn’t hot.”

      With that, Huo Rongshen drank more than half the cup of water, and some color seemed to have returned to his lips. However, his countenance remained pallid.

      Then, Jiang Dai placed the back of her hand against his forehead, testing him for fever. She observed worriedly, “Hmm…… It seems rather warm. Could you be having a fever? Since your wound’s surface area is so large, it’s really easy for it to become infected. I should call for your doctor……”

      “Have a seat, alright?” Huo Rongshen caught her by her arm, halting in her tracks. “I don’t have a fever, so don’t worry, and stay with me for a while.”

      As such, Jiang Dai had no choice but to sit on the edge of the bed and watch him with an intent gaze.
