Chapter 1424 You Are Fired.
Feng Shufen looked at Li Xue before darting his gaze dangerously at the team of doctors present there.
Feeling almost strangled just by the mere gaze, the doctors felt cold sweat drip down their spine. Looking concerned for their lives, they turned to look at Li Xue and one of them spoke on behalf of others. “Madam, please take a rest pose on the bed. We are here to check your condition. President Feng has asked us to look after you so that both you and the coming baby will be fine.”
He said, and in his polite voice, Li Xue could clearly hear the terror he was feeling inside. To be said truly, she really felt bad for the poor souls. But at the same time, she knew that there wasn’t something they could do to avoid it. After all, when the Devil summons the poor souls at the Gate of Hell, the mere souls had no other option but to follow the command.
Pressing her lips in a thin line, Li Xue turned to look at Feng Shufen. “Mr. Beelzebub, you didn’t have to trouble them. I said this was normal and I am fine. During pregnancy, women puke often due to morning sickness. That doesn’t mean that I am unwell and need the doctors.”
She said but as if the man had his own concepts. Not giving any heed to her words, he said in solemn tone, “Let them check you first. Come and lie on the bed.” The way he spoke made Li Xue give up all her demands because in his voice and expressions his firm seriousness was very clear. And that type of seriousness only meant one thing – no further insights required.
Pursing her lips like a kid who has gotten reprimanded, Li Xue silently made her way to the closet. “Give me two minutes. I would like to get changed first.” Saying that she went inside the closet to change into some proper dress.
After some while, the doctors removed the stethoscope from his ears and said in a subtle but audible voice. “President Feng, I have performed the thorough checking on Madam and have also taken a look at her reports. Although there are some things that she needs to take care of, there is nothing to worry about. Her earlier vomiting were just the early symptoms of pregnancy. During the first three months of pregnancy, women tend to have morning sickness like this. Sometimes it comes randomly, while sometimes any kind of smell, dust or other things triggers it.”
“Madam’s olfaction might have gotten triggered.” The doctor said with serious professional expression, trying his best to not look incompetent in his field.
But no matter how well he tried, Feng Shufen’s gaze was simply sending him the shivers of Antarctica down his soul.
“You mean to say, she has to suffer the same for more than two months?”
The doctor fretted out. “P-President Feng, that … I am …”
“It’s just a matter of two more months. There is nothing to trouble them about, Mr. Beelzebub. Also, I said that this is pretty normal. Even at the time of WeiWei, I had this morning sickness.” She said and Feng Shufen gaze fleetingly turned to look at her but then again turned to look at the doctor to say.
“You all call yourselves doctors. How can you be one when you can’t even prevent her vomiting?” he roared deeply and all the heads of the doctors dropped down with shame. Although they knew they weren’t at fault, still the authority above them were simply making them feel as if the morning sickness was something out of their fault.
“P-President Feng, we can prescribe Madam with some medicines but it can’t be served as surety because the moment Madam’s sensory nerves related to smell will get triggered, she will rush to vomit. It won’t be of use. Instead, you can try to keep the note that there is no such smell that would trigger her olfaction.” One of the women gynecologists said, hesitating for a while.
Feng Shufen turned to look at her coldly but the woman was fortunate enough to keep her eyes down.
At that moment, a meek and scared voice came from the crowd of servants and then a loud thud was heard on the floor. “Young Master, I am sorry. It was all my fault.” One of the servants apologized with a bitter cry and everyone around him dispersed so that he became visible in the eyes of others.
Li Xue didn’t understand what happened but she was sure that the thud with which the boy had landed on the floor must have hurt his knees greatly.
“What happened? Are you fine? You must have hurt badly.” She said with concern laced in his voice. But the boy simply did not pull his head up to look into the woman’s eyes. Instead, he sat there, shaking his head in regret.
“Madam, I am sorry. I am responsible for your state. I deserve the punishment. Please punish me.” He said and the people around were all confused. While Feng Shufen looked like he was getting impatient with the drama, one of the other servants noticed his face and quickly nudged the one on the floor to say.
“Boy, do you want to die? Speak everything in one go. What are you speaking about?”
The boy hesitatingly looked up and his soul trembled at the sight of Feng Shufen. Looking down at the floor, he shuddered. “I-I didn’t know that it would turn out like this. If I had known I would have never dared to do it here. I-I am a smoker and early in the morning I smoked down while gardening. I didn’t know that my smoking might make things like this. If I had known I would have …”
Before he could say more, Li Xue’s voice rang out loud. “There is no mercy for what you have done. Don’t apologize uselessly. You are fired from this villa. Go and work back at the main mansion.” She ordered and everyone around was confused at her sudden change in demeanor.
