When he returned home in the evening, Ji Li moved the things in the bedroom to the study.
After a while, he heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground next to him, followed by Yu Man's scream.
Ji Li shouted impatiently, "What's wrong with you?"
But Yu Man didn't answer. He went to the bedroom and saw Yu Man lying on the floor, holding her arms in pain.
Ji Li had no intention of helping her. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I wanted to get you a thicker quilt, but it was too heavy and I fell off it."
Ji Li looked at the quilt on the ground with a subtle expression, and a strange sense of pride in his heart, "Can you get up?"
Yu Man nodded, but as soon as she moved she broke out in a cold sweat because of the pain.
Ji Li saw that she looked in pain and didn't seem to be faking it. He squatted on the ground to check her injuries. There was nothing serious on the surface, so he said, "Maybe it's a bone injury. I'll take you to the hospital."
It was almost 9 o'clock, and there was only one doctor on duty at the hospital. There were also quite a few patients injured in accidents, so the two of them waited in line for a long time before they were finally there. As soon as they entered, Ji Li said impatiently, "Let her see what's going on."
The doctor who was treating the patient was a female doctor in her late 40s. Seeing Ji Li's aggressive attitude, she frowned and said, "Sir, please keep your voice down. The patient's family should wait outside."
Ji Li slammed the door and walked out.
The female doctor was very patient with Su Man and asked gently, "Where does it hurt? How did you get hurt?"
Su Man pointed to her arm and said, "It hurts here. I bumped into it accidentally."
The female doctor paused. She guessed that Su Man was lying. Who could hit their arm like this? And if she looked closely, there were bruises on her face. Could it be domestic violence?
She brought Su Man inside and closed the curtain. While checking her injuries, she asked, "Tell me the truth, were you beaten?"
Su Man avoided his gaze and said, "No, it's not."
The female doctor became more certain of her guess. She lowered her voice and said, "Domestic violence can only happen once or countless times. You must not condone it."
Su Man almost cried after hearing this, "No, there really was no doctor, really no one beat me, I..."
Seeing her gradually getting agitated, the female doctor quickly comforted her, "Okay, okay, calm down. I'll help you check your injuries."
The doctor recalled Ji Li's attire; he looked either wealthy or noble, perhaps holding some leverage. She saw that Su Man's arm wasn't broken, but to teach Ji Li a lesson, she deliberately put a cast on her and called him in to explain the severity of the injury.
Hearing about not being able to move, not being able to touch, and not having violent collisions, Ji Li was overwhelmed. "Okay, I get it."
After listening to the doctor's lecture, he went out. Yu Man was huddled in a chair outside, holding her plastered arm. When she saw him come out, she blinked her big eyes and said, "I'm sorry, I got you into trouble."
The soft, nasal voice of the little baby blocked the curse that Ji Li wanted to say. Forget it, since she was injured so badly, she should have learned a lesson.
On the way back, he called the housekeeping company and asked them to find a nanny.
Yu Man used to do all the housework, but now that she has become like this, she can’t do anything. I guess she can’t even cook. We should hire a nanny.
the next day
Su Man ate the fruit plate cut by the nanny and lay comfortably on the sofa watching variety shows.
Right? This is the correct way to hook up with a rich man. It turns out that Yu Man was living a life like an ascetic. If she had known what kind of person Ji Li was, she would have started enjoying herself a long time ago.
"Ma'am, what would you like to eat for lunch?"
The new nanny, Ah Hong, is not very old, only about twenty-one or twenty-two. I heard that she is from the countryside. She has her hair tied in a long ponytail and looks full of youth.
Su Man thought for a moment and said, "Just make a braised cod, shredded pork with fish sauce, and stir-fry some fresh vegetables."
"Yes, ma'am."
After saying that, Ah Hong went out to buy groceries. Looking at her twisting back, Su Man felt that this little nanny was not very serious.
Sure enough, when Ji Li came back in the evening, Ah Hong immediately left her and rushed to Ji Li's side, "Sir, you are back. Let me help you with your bag."
"No."
Ji Li avoided her outstretched hand and said, "Go get some rice."
"Oh." Ah Hong felt a little disappointed.
While eating, Su Man only had one hand which was not very nimble. Ji Li saw her drop the food twice and called Ah Hong.
Ah Hong was eating in the kitchen. When she heard Ji Li calling her, she ran over excitedly. She thought he wanted her to come to the table to eat, but Ji Li didn't even look at her. "Yu Man's hands are not convenient. Help her pick up the food."
"Oh." Ah Hong couldn't resist and could only obediently help Su Man pick up the dishes, but she felt bad in her heart.
This was her first time as a nanny. Although she had been trained by the housekeeping company and told to keep a distance from the male owner, she still couldn't control her thoughts.
She was so young, why couldn't she rise to prominence through her own efforts? She'd already gotten to know the family well enough, especially since they weren't even married yet and slept in separate rooms. Maybe she'd just seized the opportunity.
Then she would no longer have to be ordered around by others, and could become the mistress ordering others around...
"Ah Hong."
"Hey, Madam." Ah Hong came back to her senses after being called.
"You gave me garlic, not fish."
"I'm sorry, I'll take it away now."
Su Man looked at Ah Hong's flustered look and had an idea in mind.
...
For the next week, Su Man stayed at home and did nothing. Although Ah Hong helped with the housework, it was different from when Yu Man was doing the housework before.
