Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 1038: Chapter 1038: Old Master Li Also Fell Ill

His demeanor was naturally noble, without any hint of pretense. He lifted his head, glanced at Chi Enen, and said, ”Not bad, almost as good as the tomato egg noodles. Make it for me again in the future!”

With that, he continued eating.

His series of actions seemed so natural that Chi Enen never expected he would sit down, let alone choose the worst-looking longevity noodles on the table to eat.

He was Li Beijue! Li Beijue!

He was different from her!

He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. The Li family had always known of his existence. Everything he ate, wore, and used had been the best since birth. He had always been the heir of a super-rich family.

His picky personality alone made it obvious that he held incredibly high standards for life.

Not to mention his OCD.

Chi Enen really couldn’t imagine the day Li Beijue would eat a clump of soggy noodles.

But now, here he was, eating them right before her eyes, as naturally as if it were the most ordinary thing in the world, without any sign of disdain. It was as if the longevity noodles she made were no different from the lavish meals meticulously prepared by Michelin chefs that he normally ate!

Chi Enen stood there, completely at a loss for words.

Li Beijue didn’t require her to say anything. In the blink of an eye, he had finished the noodles in the bowl. Looking at the other dishes and the birthday cake on the table, he said, ”I’ll have someone save all these later. I’ll eat them tomorrow.”

Tonight, he had attended a banquet and drank quite a bit; his stomach couldn’t handle any more.

Finishing that bowl of noodles was already his limit.

His black obsidian-like pupils were brighter than anything else as they fell on her. ”Chi Enen, tonight I’m very happy. This is the second happiest birthday I’ve ever had!”

The first time was also because of her.

Back in the Capital City, she had celebrated it with him. She’d bought him a diamond tie clip as a gift and waited until he returned at twelve o’clock to wish him a happy birthday right on time... That was the happiest birthday of his life.

This one now was the second.

In the future, he would have countless happy birthdays like this, because he had her!

Li Beijue’s falcon-like eyes were deep, like a vortex that could draw people in.

Chi Enen blurted out without thinking, ”From now on, I’ll celebrate your birthdays too.” Next time, she wouldn’t be so unprepared like this. Next time, she would make sure to give him an unforgettable birthday. Just like the ones he had prepared for her birthdays in the past!

...

The doctor arrived soon after.

They replaced Li Beijue’s damp bandages and treated the wounds on his back with anti-inflammatory medication.

Still, by midnight, Li Beijue developed a low fever.

After a hectic night of chaos, his low fever was finally brought under control, though he still looked pale.

Chi Enen got up early and went to the kitchen, intending to cook him some white porridge.

When Baby Chi used to have a fever, she would also cook white porridge for him. It was light, easy to digest, and perfect for a patient.

As soon as she went downstairs, she ran into the Old Butler.

The Old Butler looked rushed. When he saw her, he stopped and greeted her politely, ”Good morning, Miss Chi.”

”Good morning, Old Butler,” Chi Enen quickly replied. Seeing his fatigued expression, she couldn’t help but ask, ”Did something happen?”

”It’s nothing much,” the Old Butler didn’t hide it from her and said, ”The Old Master Jue is sick, so I’m going to call the doctor.”

The Old Master hadn’t been able to sleep well since the night before yesterday. He often got up in the middle of the night to stand on the balcony, which led to catching a cold.

At over seventy years old, even a simple cold couldn’t be taken lightly. The Old Master had been strong-willed his whole life, completely disregarding the minor illness. Still, the Old Butler was worried and decided it was best to have the doctor come and check again...
