Stop Messing Around, Mr Bo! Chapter 1816

Chapter 1816: Congratulations
“I was too tired yesterday and accidentally fell asleep.”
Li Mo frowned. “Then why did you turn off your phone?”
“Really?” she said as she took out her phone. She hadn’t switched it on since she switched it off last night.
“Oh, I think it’s out of battery. After all, I was in the hospital all day yesterday and didn’t charge it.”
Li Mo stared at her for a long time before he suddenly sneered.
“Xu Qingzhi, you didn’t inform me when your phone ran out of battery? Do you think I’ll believe you?”
Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips and turned around to pour him a bowl of soup. “This soup tastes good. Try it.”
“…”
The ward fell into a strange silence.
The doctors, nurses, and nurses shuddered. They looked at each other before walking out of the ward.
…
Xu Qingzhi still had a faint smile on her face, as if she didn’t notice the low pressure on Li Mo.
How could she not know?
Of course she knew.
She could easily sense Li Mo’s every word and expression.
She did care in the past, but what could she do now?
“Aren’t you going to drink it? It tastes really good.”
Li Mo felt especially angry at her ignorance. He took two steps towards her and lowered his gaze to look at her.
“You’re avoiding the question.”
Xu Qingzhi tucked her hair behind her ear and took two steps back before looking up at him.
“Since you have an answer in your heart, why do you need me to admit it personally?”
Li Mo’s eyebrows twitched and he instinctively reached out to grab her wrist.
“You…”
He had just opened his mouth to speak, but he didn’t know what to say.
So she had deliberately switched off her phone.
Was she deliberately targeting him?
Xu Qingzhi looked down at his hand that was holding hers. “It seems like there’s nothing wrong with your body.”
Li Mo narrowed his eyes and saw her raising her head to look at her smiling face. The smile in her eyes was as cold as ice.
It was not the way she used to look at him.
“Xu Qingzhi, what are you thinking?”
Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips and retracted her wrist.
“I’ll ask the doctor how you’re recovering.”
She spoke as she walked, her expression still indifferent.
It was another back view, so familiar that Limo panicked. He grabbed her again and pulled her into his embrace.
“Xu Qingzhi, what do you want?! Can you not be so sarcastic?!”
His voice was exasperated and his patience had worn thin.
In response to his low growl, Xu Qingzhi looked up at him.
“I just want to confirm if you’re alright. If you need to be discharged, don’t stay in the hospital anymore.”
However, Li Mo still didn’t believe her. He almost blurted out, “And then?!”
“And then?” Xu Qingzhi looked at his flustered but handsome face and her eyes flickered.
“Then we should go through the divorce procedures.”
Her words made Li Mo’s heart tremble violently. As if he had been stabbed, he suddenly let go of Xu Qingzhi.
He looked at her for a while before walking to the bed. He stood with his back facing her for a while before turning around again. His eyes were malicious.
“I’ve said it before. Divorce is absolutely impossible.”
“I…”
“Since you chose to marry me back then, you should be prepared to face anything! Now that you want a divorce, don’t be stubborn and insist on marrying me. I’ve given you a chance. You’re the one who started this marriage, yet you want it to end anytime and anywhere? What do you take the Li family and me for?! Xu Qingzhi, don’t look like you’re wronged and innocent. This is all because of your stubbornness back then. You can’t blame anyone else.”
Li Mo interrupted Xu Qingzhi.
Xu Qingzhi didn’t even have the strength to clench her fists. She was silent for a while before nodding lightly.
“I know that. I’ve never blamed you. I’m sorry for forcefully tying you up. Mo Xiaona’s return this time has more or less made me understand something… Yes… What I said yesterday is actually true. After all, we were once husband and wife. There’s no deep hatred between us, so I only want to part on good terms. Whether it’s me being aggrieved or helping you be with Mo Xiaona, it doesn’t matter. If you want a reason, you can think of a reasonable reason yourself… As long as the outcome doesn’t change.”
The result remained the same…
So what she meant was that she could accept any reason as long as they could get a divorce?
Li Mo sneered. “Don’t you understand human language? It’s impossible to get a divorce in this lifetime.”
Xu Qingzhi looked at him calmly and said, “Limo, why do you have to do this? I admit that my decision was wrong from the start. It’s not impossible to salvage the situation in time. Have you ever thought that Mo Xiaona can’t wait if you waste time with me? Don’t ruin three people at once…”
“Yes, who caused this?”
Xu Qingzhi took a deep breath and said, “Limo, don’t you think you’re being a little unreasonable?”
“But that’s the truth. Since you’re wrong, you have to pay the price for it for the rest of your life.”
As he spoke, he took off his clothes and threw them aside. He lifted the blanket and lay down.
“I don’t want to talk to you about this now. I feel uncomfortable all over. Call the doctor for me!”
Xu Qingzhi closed her eyes and took a deep breath before walking out of the ward.
Ten minutes later, Xu Qingzhi brought the doctor in. The bowl of soup she had just poured was empty.
For a moment, she was both angry and amused.
How childish and shameless.
When the doctor came in to examine him, Xu Qingzhi didn’t hide anything. Whenever the doctor pressed a spot on him, he would frown and shout, “It hurts.”
There wasn’t a single spot that didn’t hurt.
The doctor said awkwardly, “CEO Li, you’re no different from necrosis…”
Li Mo frowned. “Full body necrosis? More or less. Hurry up and treat it!”
The doctor said, “This is a global exception. You need to study it carefully.”
“I’ll give you time to study it. I’m not in a hurry!”
Xu Qingzhi was speechless.
After the doctor left, Xu Qingzhi stood by Li Mo’s bed and looked at his back. She said softly, “Limo, can you not be so childish?”
“You won’t divorce if you’re not childish?”
“You can’t be childish…”
Li Mo didn’t say anything else.
Xu Qingzhi walked around the bed and sat on the sofa opposite him.
Li Mo closed his eyes and turned over.
Xu Qingzhi was speechless.
Sighing, she decided not to continue pestering him.
Just like that, the two of them didn’t say a word for the entire afternoon.
At six o’clock, Xu Qingzhi sent a message to the nurse.
The nurse knocked on the door and she went to open it.
“I’ll have to trouble you next.”
Hearing Xu Qingzhi’s voice, Limo suddenly opened his eyes and sat up. Only the nurse entered the ward.
He asked in a low voice, “Where is she?!”
The nurse trembled. “Madam… has left…”
The veins on Li Mo’s forehead twitched.
“S-sir…”
“Get out!”
“But Madam, she…”
“I told you to get lost!”
The nurse no longer hesitated and hurried out.
After walking out, she gave Xu Qingzhi a call. “Madam, you should come back. Master’s… temper is really…”
Xu Qingzhi frowned and said, “That’s it then. Since he can chase you out, it’s probably nothing serious.”
“Okay, okay.” The nurse quickly agreed and hung up.
Xu Qingzhi, who had just reached the entrance of the hospital, adjusted her clothes and turned to see someone getting out of a car in the parking lot. She walked to the light and greeted her, “Madam.”
It was Li Mo’s assistant.
Xu Qingzhi nodded and said, “It’s not convenient for Limo to be taken care of by the nurse now. Help to keep an eye on him.”
The assistant nodded in confusion. “That’s not a problem, but CEO Li probably won’t agree to me taking care of him…”
“Then find Miss Mo. He won’t lose his temper at her.”
The assistant was stunned. “… Madam?”
“Goodnight.”
Xu Qingzhi said calmly and left.
‘Goodnight?’
The assistant looked at his watch. It was only six o’clock.
However, it was indeed night time in winter.
—
When Li Mo heard from his assistant that Xu Qingzhi had asked him to invite Mo Xiaona to take care of him, he paced back and forth on the ground before suddenly kicking the coffee table in front of him.
The loud sound made the assistant flinch in fear.
The hostility emanating from him made one panic.
However, Limo remained silent after throwing a tantrum. He sat on the bed with a dark expression.
The assistant didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.
Fortunately, he didn’t call Miss Mo up this time. Otherwise, things would have gotten worse.
—
Xu Qingzhi went to the hospital at noon the next day, but Li Mo remained silent.
It was the same for the next few days. What puzzled Xu Qingzhi was that she had never seen Mo Xiaona in the ward.
Perhaps it was just to avoid her?
So he came at another time?
They were all arranged to be in the same hospital. Wouldn’t it be a waste of such a good opportunity if they didn’t meet?
Li Mo had been in the hospital for a week. The bandage on his head had long been removed. He looked like he had eaten and drunk a lot. He was as steady as a bull.
But he had no intention of being discharged.
Finally, on the afternoon of the seventh day, Xu Qingzhi couldn’t help but say, “Limo, I’ve consulted the doctor. You’re almost recovered.”
“What’s good? I’m in pain all over!”
Xu Qingzhi looked at him for a while and left without saying anything.
Li Mo had gotten used to it these few days. If she wanted to go back to sleep, so be it.
She could see him the next day anyway.
However, at noon the next day, it was Qiao Zhilan who brought him lunch.
Li Mo frowned. “Where is she?”
Qiao Zhilan said calmly, “Qingzhi called to say that the company’s new product launch is in a few days and she needs to be present to arrange it. She’ll be very busy these few days. Why? Didn’t she tell you?”
Li Mo’s stomach gradually recovered and he could eat properly on the third day.
Recently, Xu Qingzhi and Qiao Zhilan had been taking turns to send him food. Ever since Qiao Zhilan went back, Old Madam had brought him back to the Li family.
It was just that it was not appropriate for them to ask too much about the relationship between the two young people. It was useless for them to force themselves in the middle. It was better to let them watch.
After all, they knew that the two of them liked each other. The ending wouldn’t be too bad.
Hence, they didn’t ask much.
But another five to six days had passed. Why hadn’t they made any progress?
Li Mo didn’t say anything. Qiao Zhilan sighed and shook her head helplessly.
For two consecutive days, Xu Qingzhi did not go to the hospital.
Because of his pride, Li Mo refused to call Xu Qingzhi. In the end, he called his assistant over.
“I can’t change my clothes.”
The assistant hurriedly replied, “I’ll go buy it now.”
He left after saying that but was stopped by Limo.
“Stop right there.”
The assistant turned to look at him in confusion.
Li Mo coughed lightly. “I have it at home. Go to my house to get it. If you can’t find it, get Xu Qingzhi to help you.”
The assistant paused for a moment. “…Okay, got it.”
“Wait a minute.”
“Sir?”
“My appetite hasn’t been good these two days.”
The assistant’s lips twitched. So?
“She makes good buns.”
The assistant responded, “I’ll tell Madam.”
Li Mo didn’t say anything else and the assistant finally left the ward.
However, after waiting for an entire afternoon, Li Mo couldn’t find her. It was already past seven in the evening, so he called his assistant.
“Why are you so slow?”
Just as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Then, the assistant appeared at the door.
Panting, she walked in.
She was holding a bag from a clothing brand and a bag from a branded store.
Li Mo frowned. “I told you to come to my house.”
The assistant couldn’t even catch her breath. “Sir… I… I went, but no one answered the door. Madam… doesn’t seem to be home.”
“What time did you leave the house?”
“A little after six… And I didn’t see Madam’s car on the way…”
Li Mo’s expression turned ugly. He couldn’t care less about his pride anymore and called Xu Qingzhi.
The phone rang for a while before it was picked up.
“Hello?”
“Where are you now?”
Xu Qingzhi paused before saying, “I’m at home.”
“Why didn’t you open the door when you were at home? Someone has been ringing the doorbell all afternoon. Did you hear them?”
Xu Qingzhi was silent for more than ten seconds. “… What’s the matter?”
Li Mo pursed his lips. “I… just wanted to confirm if you’re alright…”
“Thank you for your concern. I’m fine.”
“…”
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first. I still have a plan to see.”
“Howl howl howl…”
“Shh, Little Moon, don’t bite the sofa… Come here, I’ll give you milk…”
Xu Qingzhi’s attention seemed to be completely attracted by Little Moon. She hung up while talking to the dog.
Hearing the busy tone, Limo frowned deeply.
How could…
How dare she hang up on him?!
The two of them had not interacted much in the past few days, and now, they had not appeared for two days. Now that he had called them personally, they were not even worth paying attention to.
Li Mo was furious. He lifted the blanket and got out of bed.
“Sir, what are you doing?”
Li Mo changed his clothes and walked out of the ward with a straight face.
Just as she had calmed Moon down and was about to read the document, the doorbell rang.
Getting up to open the door, Chu Yi’s tall figure appeared.
She shook the shopping bag in her hand.
“I heard that winter is the most compatible with hotpot!”
Xu Qingzhi stepped aside to let him in.
Chu Yi continued, “I got someone to buy these vegetables directly from the farmers in the suburbs. They’re definitely natural and harmless.”
Xu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Great, I’ve been craving hotpot recently.”
Chu Yi raised an eyebrow. “Congratulations on moving in.”
“Thank you.”
