Chapter 797: Chapter 038: You’re afraid that I won’t be able to support you
Li Junsheng sat in the bathtub and looked at ye Zhen. There was a hint of a smile hidden in his eyes.
His little girl might not have noticed it herself, but her attitude toward him had changed a lot since the beginning.
His little girl might not have noticed this change, but he did.
“Uncle Li, next time you encounter something like this, don’t be the first to rush in.”
“Okay.”
“Actually, it’s none of your business. There are so many people –”
Ye Zhen couldn’t continue. This thought was actually a little selfish. When she was still an ordinary citizen, she would have hoped that their zhengzhi government officials would do more.
But one day, when she became the family member of these officials, she only hoped that they would be safe.
That fire was not a joke. If anything happened —
“Okay.”
After ye Zhen finished complaining, she took the towel and was about to give Li Junsheng a bath. But at this moment, she suddenly realized a problem and stopped moving.
Li Junsheng watched her face turn red bit by bit. He looked at her standing there motionlessly and pretended to be confused.
“What’s Wrong?”
“Uncle Li.”Ye Zhen handed the towel to Li Junsheng with a blush. “You only hurt one hand. You can do it yourself.”
“But, I’m afraid of touching the wound.”
“You –“ye Zhen gritted her teeth. The water was very clear. She saw it at a glance. It was in the water, that —
She withdrew her gaze. At this time, she was still in the mood to be absent-minded. She really said, “Uncle Li, you can wash yourself.”
“Alright.”Li Junsheng did not object. He took the towel, but his hand suddenly loosened. The towel that was soaked with water fell onto his injured arm.
“Chi –”
Li Junsheng took a deep breath. Ye Zhen’s expression changed. “Uncle Li, Are You Alright?”
“I’m fine,”Li Junsheng said with a “Weak”expression. “Maybe I didn’t sleep last night, so I’m a little tired. I’m fine.”
He reached for the towel again, but ye Zhen was one step ahead of him. She looked at the wet bandage and felt her face turn pale.
“The bandage is wet. What should I do? Should I send you back to see a doctor? Or should I call a doctor?”
“No, it should be fine. You can help me bandage it later.”
“But –”
“I’m so tired.”Li Junsheng’s face looked increasingly weak. “I want to take a bath and then have a good sleep.”
“Then let me help you.”
How could ye Zhen Dare to let him do it? She took the towel and began to bathe Li Junsheng. Her face was full of worry, so she did not see the flash of joy in Li Junsheng’s eyes and the Smile of a successful conspiracy.
It was okay to wash her upper body. Although ye Zhen’s movements were a little clumsy, she successfully washed her upper body. When she washed her lower body, it was a little awkward.
She stared at Li Junsheng’s underwater body, her face burning. “Uncle Li –”
“It’s okay, you can wash. You can just wash as you like. I just want to sleep.”
Ye Zhen gritted her teeth and did not dare to hesitate anymore. She closed her eyes and reached her hand under the water.
..
When ye Zhen finished showering Li Junsheng and came out of the bathroom, her hands were sore beyond recognition.
Looking at Li Junsheng, who looked refreshed and energetic, no matter how slow she was, she realized that something was wrong.
“Uncle Li, you –“were you faking it just now.
“Are you tired?”Li Junsheng looked at her and smiled gently. “I’m sorry. The main thing is that you gave me a bath like that. I couldn’t help but feel a little out of control. Thank you for your hard work.”
“I –“ye Zhen was not as thick-skinned as him. She could talk about that matter as if it was a normal meal. She gritted her teeth and glared at him. “And you said that your wound hurts.”
Because of his injury, because of the pain in his wound, he had to trouble her to help him with his hands.
But shouldn’t the pain in his wound rest?
“Yes.”Li Junsheng nodded. He looked at his bandage that was soaked in water. “Look, it’s wet. Help me bandage it again.”
Ye Zhen, who had been tricked, did not want to talk to him at all. However, looking at the wound, she had no choice but to take the first aid kit.
When she removed the bandage on Li Junsheng’s hand, her previous caution turned into worry. “Why are you hurt so badly?”
There were so many burn marks, and the red muscles inside made her feel uncomfortable. She bit her lip, and the corners of her eyes could not help but turn red.
“It’s okay. I already said it’s a small wound. As long as you’re not angry with me, it’s fine.”
Ye Zhen glared at him and did not say anything else. She picked up the medicine prescribed by the Doctor and reapplied it on him, then carefully bandaged his wound.
After the wound was bandaged, Ye Zhen took the medicine box and was about to return to the living room.
“Don’t go. Sleep with me for a while.”
“You’re already injured, yet you’re still thinking about that. You’re really –”
“I’m just sleeping. What are you thinking about?”Li Junsheng couldn’t help but laugh. “Besides, didn’t you help me solve it just now?”
“You’re still talking.”
“Then I won’t say anymore. I’ll do it.”
Ye Zhen couldn’t help but glare at him again. In the end, she couldn’t bear to reject him. She followed him to the bed and lay down to rest.
The two of them lay down together. In the end, ye Zhen couldn’t help but fall asleep as well. When she woke up again, it was already afternoon. Looking at Li Junsheng who was still sleeping, she quietly got up and quietly walked to the living room outside.
When Li Junsheng woke up, he saw ye Zhen cooking in the kitchen.
She was wearing an apron, and her shoulder-length black hair was tied into a small braid at the back of her head. The evening light shone in from the kitchen, and she looked so beautiful that it was unreal.
When ye Zhen scooped out the dishes, her waist was hugged by someone. She did not turn around. Instead, she gently patted the back of her hand. “Okay, there’s one more dish. Once it’s done, we can eat.”
Li Junsheng did not let go. He buried his face into ye Zhen’s neck. The breath he exhaled was warm, accompanied by his pleasant and clear voice.
“Zhen Zhen, your body smells so good.”
Ye Zhen’s hand movements paused. “Where does it smell good? Does it smell like oil?”
“My whole body smells good.”Li Junsheng wrapped his uninjured hand around ye Zhen’s waist. At this moment, Li Junsheng’s expression looked extremely sincere. “Do you want me to prove it to you?”
Ye Zhen removed his hand and looked at him warily. “There’s no need. You go out. I still have to cook.”
“You can cook later.”Li Junsheng was addicted to teasing her. He took a step forward and circled her again. “I’m very hungry now, but I want to eat you more.”
“Li Junsheng.”It was really enough. His hand was injured. was he still not going to stop?
“Yes, this is the first time you’ve called me by my first name.”Li Junsheng looked at her sideways. “I think it would be better if the word ‘Li’was removed.”
“Mayor Li, Mr. Li, are you done?”Ye Zhen gently pushed him. “Do you want me to finish cooking the rest of the dishes or not?”
“Not Enough.”Li Junsheng kissed her face. “Just now, you only used your hands. It doesn’t count. Are you really not considering coming to the kitchen once?”
“Li Junsheng –”
Li Junsheng smiled and finally decided not to tease her. “Okay. You Cook. I’ll go out, okay?”
Ye Zhen heaved a sigh of relief. Li Junsheng turned around and left, but at this moment, he deliberately took a step back and blew gently on her ear.
“Sooner or later, I’ll get rid of you in the kitchen.”
“…”
Looking at Li Junsheng’s back as if nothing had happened, ye Zhen gritted her teeth. Was this person really the mayor of a city? How could he be so, so..
The adjectives at the end were too embarrassing. Ye Zhen shook her head and forced herself to focus on cooking and not think about anything else.
When ye Zhen had finished serving the dishes, she realized that Li Junsheng was on the phone. He had his back to her and was standing near the balcony.
“Those people can’t wait any longer. With such a big piece of evidence, I don’t believe they won’t use this matter to make a fuss.”
“Don’t worry. I know what to do.”
“Mm. I’ll have to trouble you to investigate the matter last time. As for the matter now, don’t worry. I can handle it.”
“Don’t worry. Although I came a little late, I’m not a pushover. Anyone can pinch me.”
“Okay.”Hearing the voice behind her, Li Junsheng hung up the phone.
Ye Zhen didn’t hear everything, but her eyes were filled with worry once again.
“Uncle Li, will this matter be very troublesome?”
No matter how unfamiliar she was with the officialdom, she knew that this matter was probably very big and couldn’t be easily settled.
“Why do you ask?”
“Last time, didn’t many officials get punished after the incident in Jin City? I’m afraid that you –”
Li Junsheng sat down at the dining table and looked at the worry in Ye Zhen’s eyes. He couldn’t help but laugh. “What? You’re afraid that I’ll lose my job and can’t afford to support you?”
Ye Zhen couldn’t help but glare at him again. He couldn’t joke around when others were so worried?
“Yeah, I’m afraid that you won’t be able to support me if you lose your job.”
“That’ll be troublesome.”Li Junsheng smiled. “If I really lose my job, I’ll have no choice but to rely on you. After all, you’re the chairman now. When the time comes, I’ll drive your car and carry your bags every day. How about I Be Your Assistant?”
“Not much.”Ye Zhen put a bowl of soup in front of him. “Your salary is too high. I Can’t afford to hire you.”
“Of course others can’t afford to hire you, but if it’s you, you can give yourself to me.”
Ye Zhen glanced at him. At this time, she was still not serious. “Okay. When you lose your job, you, the mayor, can be my assistant. You can be an assistant during the day and a gigolo at night. How about that?”
Li Junsheng reached out and pulled ye Zhen’s hand to his side. “It’s night now. So, does chairman ye need me to serve you now?”
Ye Zhen’s face flushed red again. She withdrew her hand and admitted defeat. In terms of being a hooligan and being thick-skinned, she was definitely not his opponent.
She really wanted to ask, “Do your subordinates know that you’re such a Hooligan?”
However, she did not have the chance to ask Li Junsheng. Li Junsheng received a phone call and his expression changed.
“Okay, I’ll be right there.”
“Uncle Li.”Ye Zhen heard the meaning in his words and stood up immediately. “Where are you going?”
“To the west side factory. There was another explosion there.”Li Junsheng’s expression was rarely serious. He did not expect that the matter would not stop until now. Instead, the impact was even worse.
“Your hand is injured like this.”Ye Zhen stood in front of him. “You should rest first. Aren’t there others now?”
