Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 623: Chapter 623: Saw the Wound on His Back

Chi Enen hesitated outside for a long time.

It wasn’t until the bloody smell from the bathroom became stronger and stronger that her concern finally overcame her embarrassment. She reached out to knock on the door, “Li Beijue, are you in there? May I come in?”

“Splash…” The sound of water was the only response.

It was unclear whether the person inside had heard her.

Chi Enen waited for a long time without getting a response. Unable to hold back any longer, she turned the knob, barged in—

“Li Beijue.”

...

What met her eyes was the sight of a naked Adonis in the bath, and she could see clearly what he was doing.

Chi Enen’s head buzzed, her cheeks were flushed with embarrassment, and she stumbled over her words, “I’m sorry to intrude, I…”

Before she could finish saying she would leave, she spotted the wound on his back.

Her flushed complexion turned pale in an instant as she hurried over and reached out to touch him, “Li Beijue, what happened to your back? How could it be…” She didn’t even know how to describe the wound she had just seen; it was beyond shocking.

Her heart felt as if it was being squeezed, causing great discomfort.

“Get out!” The man she touched dodged her hand and subtly blocked her view.

This time Chi Enen didn’t obediently leave but insisted, “I want to see your wound.”

“Get out! Don’t make me say it three times!”

Why look? It’s not good for a pregnant woman to see such bloody things. Besides, he was bathing—the floor was covered with water, so slippery. She just barged in without fear of falling! Doesn’t she care about the child in her stomach? If something happened to it, wouldn’t she be devastated?

Chi Enen bit her lower lip with determination, “I’m not going out. I want to see!”

Li Beijue furrowed his eyebrows; he had no intention of letting her see. His falcon-like eyes glared at her menacingly, “Chi Enen, I told you to get out. I’m taking a bath right now. Or are you so eager to join? I’m going to count down from three, and if you’re not out by then, I’ll satisfy your wish!”

Normally, such a blatant threat would be most effective on Chi Enen; she would exit immediately and without hesitation.

But this time, Chi Enen stood her ground, “I’ll count for you, 3, 2, 1. I want to see your back!”

This woman’s courage seemed to grow by the day.

Li Beijue was momentarily lost for words due to her retort. Chi Enen was already advancing, attempting to circle around him to inspect the wound on his back.

Li Beijue’s atypical refusal to let her see only implied one thing: his injury was very severe—so severe that he thought it would be too much for her to handle!

But not seeing it would be even more unbearable for her!

The two of them locked eyes in a standoff. The man who had faced over a dozen bodyguards without defeat was quickly bested by her in less than a minute. He stepped aside, but his eyes were still fierce, and his tone was domineering as he warned her, “Chi Enen, if you’re going to look then don’t you dare cry! If you let out a single tear, I’ll shove it back in!”

Chi Enen really wanted to see him try to shove tears back in, but at this moment, her mind wasn’t on those trivial matters; she just wanted to know how bad his back injury was!

“Okay.”

Li Beijue clearly didn’t believe her but still slowly turned around.

When Chi Enen finally saw the state of the wound on his back, she felt a sudden pang of heartache as she gasped for air, covering her mouth. Her nose stung uncontrollably, and her vision was already blurring with tears, “How could…”
