Li Xiaoran leaned down and placed his hands on both sides of the cramped bed. He looked at Qiao An teasingly and smiled. “Qiao An, look at my eyes. When have you seen me so haggard and disheveled?”

Qiao An’s eyelids rolled up with difficulty. He saw that Li Xiaoran’s beautiful eyes were filled with a circle of green, but it still did stop him from flirting.

Her lips curled into a mocking smile. It seemed that this player had been exhausted recently.

Li Xiaoran realized that Qiao An might have misunderstood and his handsome face instantly turned green.

“It wasn’t easy for me to snatch you back from the throes of Death. Qiao An, I’ve invested in your life for seven days and seven nights. No matter what, I’m one of your shareholders. If you want to die in the future, please ask for my opinion,” Li Xiaoran said arrogantly.

Qiao An was dumbfounded.

Li Xiaoran’s words made her feel ashamed.

Her life was given to her by her parents, but she had jumped off a building for a scumbag like Li Zecheng. Now that she thought about it, she had really let her parents down.

Qiao An suddenly felt a desire to live. She looked at Li Xiaoran and begged, “I don’t want to be disabled.”

She knew that although Li Xiaoran had a bad reputation, the scalpel in his hand was world famous. She was afraid that he would use his power to his advantage to benefit Li Zecheng.

Li Xiaoran’s smile froze on his lips. It seemed that she didn’t believe that he would do his best to save her. In that case, he had to prove it to her.

With his free hand, he gently undressed Qiao An.

It was extremely easy to undo a patient’s clothes, not to mention that he was a doctor. With ease, he pulled off Jo Ann’s belt. She felt a chill on her chest, embarrassed and annoyed.

“Li… Xiaoran, I’m… your niece-in-law. How dare you… take advantage of me?”

Li Xiaoran did not stop what he was doing. He teased Qiao An cynically, “Since you already know that I’m a womanizer, why should I hide it from you?”

Qiao An was so angry she couldn’t breathe.

Li Xiaoran looked at Qiao An, whose ears were so red that she was crying. He felt that she was extremely cute. However, considering that she was a patient and he was afraid that she would be upset, all his efforts in the past few days would be in vain. He restrained his unruly attitude and explained to her seriously.

“Qiao An, I’m just checking your wound. What are you thinking?”

Qiao An was shy and always felt that men and women should not touch each other, not to mention that this person was her unrestrained uncle-in-law. She immediately resisted. “I don’t want you to… check. Go… call the female doctor.”

Li Xiaoran said solemnly, “Qiao An, in the entire capital and even the entire world, I’m the only one who can save you. If you don’t want to live with a urine bag for the rest of your life, you have to overcome your shame now. Because in the next few months, I’ll be with you day and night and check every inch of your skin every day…”

Qiao An fell silent when she heard that she might be living on a piss bag.

Li Xiaoran’s lips curled into a smug smile.

He very gently gave Qiao An a full-body examination and applied the medicine very carefully. When he was done, he put on her clothes and pants again.

At this moment, Qiao An’s face was as red as a tomato. She turned his head and did not dare to look at Li Xiaoran.

Li Xiaoran stuffed his hands into the pockets of his white coat. With his languid temperament and excellent looks, he exuded an aura that was superior to all the men in the Li family.

“Li Zecheng waited for you outside for seven days and seven nights. If you’re willing to see him, I’ll call him in.”

Qiao An’s hands gripped the sheets so tightly that the color drained from her ruddy fingernails.

Li Xiaoran saw her reaction and his eyes darkened. “I’ll help you get rid of him.”

Qiao An’s thoughts calmed in a flash.

“Call him in,” she said.

Li Xiaoran frowned and turned to walk out the door.

“Zecheng, come in.”

As soon as Li Xiaoran finished speaking, Li Zecheng barged in.

“An’an.”

He came to the bed and looked at Qiao An, who was as thin as a skeleton. Only his eyes were like stars in the night, bright and flickering. Li Zecheng was clearly put off by Qiao An’s ugly appearance.

In the end, he mustered his courage and grabbed Qiao An’s hand. He complained helplessly, “An’an, why did you jump off the building? I didn’t say I wouldn’t save you. I only saved Wei Xin first. You know that Wei Xin is weaker than you. You’ve always been strong and brave. That’s why I chose to save her first. Sigh, you women are so petty.”

Qiao An’s cold hand pulled weakly from Li Zecheng’s palm.

Li Zecheng was stunned. “An’an, are you still blaming me? Did you misunderstand my relationship with Wei Xin? There’s really nothing between us! You also know that the Wei family and the Li family are business partners. Her father has always been very supportive of me. I’m grateful for Uncle Wei’s support, so I treat Wei Xin as my biological sister and take care of her. That’s all.”

Jo Ann closed her eyes as tears filled them.

Li Zecheng clearly did not love her, but he had to pretend to be a loyal husband. It was obvious that he was trying to protect his image. His behavior disgusted her.

“Divorce,” Qiao An said softly.

She knew that Li Zecheng had stayed in the marriage because many of his assets had grown rapidly after he married her. They belonged to the common property of the marriage. If they divorced and she wanted to take half of his assets, Li Zecheng’s strength would be halved. This was a fatal blow to him.

“Divorce?” Li Zecheng seemed to have been stung by a wasp and became fearful.

He couldn’t divorce Qiao An. Even if he didn’t love her, he couldn’t leave her.

Speaking of which, it was strange. After he and Qiao An got married, his life seemed to have become a breeze. The old man also treated him differently and even wanted to hand over the Li family’s assets to him.

If Qiao An divorced him now, the old man would definitely retract his will.

“An’an, we can’t get a divorce. You’re in a difficult time now. If I leave you at this time, will I still be human? I know that I didn’t save you in time and that made you upset. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely treat you well in the future and let you see my sincerity. If I still can’t move you after a year, then I agree to the divorce.”

Li Zecheng thought that Qiao An was still innocent and easy to coax. As long as he coaxed her and acted pitiful, Qiao An would be obedient to him.

Qiao An smiled.

Li Zecheng’s calculations were very quick. A year later, he would already have established himself in the Li family. Naturally, he would be able to kick out his wife by then.

“My mind is made up.”
