The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 18: I Agree, Marry You
Chapter 18: Chapter 18: I Agree, Marry You
Ji Niandong felt her forehead sweating from the pain, struggling to stand up; after several attempts, she eventually sat back down.
"Beg me now, I can immediately have the hospital transfer your father to a VIP room! However..." The man paused momentarily, "This is the last chance I’ll give you. If you remain ungrateful, my patience might just..."
Before he could finish, the small woman’s hand gently tugged at his pant leg. With her head bowed and her face toward the floor, Lu Beichen could only see the back of her head. A voice, as faint as a whisper, reached him: "I agree!"
"What?" Lu Beichen raised his eyebrows, deliberately asking.
Ji Niandong lifted her head, her face silent but expression extremely firm, as if she had made a significant decision: "I agree to marry you!"
Lu Beichen tilted his head, pressed his lips together to suppress a smile and said coldly, "How do I know if you truly wish to marry me willingly? What if after I perform the surgery for your father, you change your mind?"
Ji Niandong’s brow was beet red, tugging at his pant leg with a trembling voice: "Please, save my father. As long as you save him, I can go home right now, get the household register and we can get the marriage certificate!"
She looked at him, full of anticipation waiting for his answer!
Lu Beichen took out his phone from his pocket, saying, "Li Yi, instruct Zhu Yiming to transfer my future father-in-law to the best room; he will personally arrange the surgery!"
His tone carried an unmistakable hint of joy; after putting away his phone, he bent down and lifted the small woman from the floor, placing her on the sofa.
Her right ankle was visibly swollen and red. Lu Beichen squatted down to remove her high heels, but her instincts made her pull back slightly, only for Lu Beichen to catch her ankle in one swift motion.
The woman’s legs were long and slender; they fit perfectly in his hand. Her delicate skin gradually revealed itself at his touch.
Lu Beichen removed her high heels, reaching for her ankle. She curled her foot from the pain but said not a word.
He noticed her still red and swollen hands; old injuries had not healed, and new ones had been added.
The sight filled him with both distress and helplessness!
Lu Beichen sighed, stood up to fetch the first aid kit, "Sit here obediently, don’t move!"
His voice gentle, yet carried a strong sense of command. Ji Niandong pressed her lips together, her emotions tumultuous, feeling restless.
He brought the first aid kit over and placed it on the coffee table, then went to the bathroom to grab a clean towel before taking some ice from the fridge, wrapping it in the towel and sitting back beside her, placing her leg on his thigh.
Ji Niandong felt somewhat embarrassed, wanting to pull back, but the man pinched her leg sharply, signaling her to stay put.
"You’re about to become Mrs. Lu; if you keep acting shy like this, I’ll think you’re trying to seduce me, and who knows what I might do to you!"
With a slight smile on his lips, he spoke casually, causing Ji Niandong to tense up, not daring to move again.
She’s really like a child, so adorably!
Lu Beichen placed the towel-wrapped ice on her ankle, leaning forward to keep the towel in place.
Ji Niandong felt her whole foot wrapped in his embrace, her face heating up.
