Chapter 1163: Wu wu! Daddy stole Baby’s ‘mommy’!
Things happened so quickly. Before everyone could react, he already had her palm in his.
Everyone only returned to their senses when the child started whining about his daddy stealing his ‘mommy’.
“Waaahh!”
Pei Ge knitted her brows tightly together when the child started crying.
Instinctively, she wanted to take her hand out from the man’s, but no matter how hard she tried, he had a firm grip on her palm.
Her heart trembled a little when she felt the cold and familiar sensation around her hand.
So many years had passed, yet this man was still this domineering.
“Mr. Ji, please let go of me.”
She raised her head and looked coldly at him.
The man only returned to himself from the warm sensation in his hand when he met her cold glare.
“No.”
The two words, though simple, stunned everyone in the room.
Even the crying baby paused, shocked by his father’s response.
The other two women looked at him in shock as well. They both knew how cold and unresponsive he was to women.
They almost thought that he had aversion to women.
How could they not be shocked when they saw his bossy treatment of her?
“You…”
Pei Ge paused, then frowned, about to say something.
She then saw him roll up the sleeves of the shawl she had put on earlier as she was about to leave gently.
Once that was done, her fair arm came into view, but her arm had bruises and cuts, which made its appearance somewhat alarming.
There was even a spot with blood coming out, seemingly from being cut by a stone.
“Does it hurt…”
Looking at her arm, the man’s eyes darkened. He pursed his lips, his dashing face glum, making him appear more terrifying.
“…No,” she responded instinctively.
“Stupid woman.”
He subconsciously blurted out when he saw her blank expression.
This was something that he had told her countless times.
Hearing these words come from his mouth, she paused. At that instant, she thought that she had returned to five years ago when they were still in a loving relationship.
Back then, she genuinely thought this man before her would be her support—the last man in her life.
Who knew…
Lowering her head, a mocking smile crept into her face. When she raised her face again, it was cold.
“Please watch your words.”
As she spoke, she tried to withdraw her palm again from his.
This time, his grip was really tight.
His grip was so tight she thought that the man would hold on to her arm forever.
“Gosh! Miss Regina, your hand is so badly injured! Doc, hurry up and take a look at it for her!”
Madam Ji exclaimed with a deep frown, temporarily casting her son’s strange behavior toward the woman aside.
The fair skin of her arm was covered in bruises and red marks with traces of blood, which made the sight alarming to look at.
Without needing her prompting, the doctor had already opened his medical kit and went to check Pei Ge the instant he saw her wounds.
In the short time that the doctor was examining her arm, Mu Heng, who had been sent to inspect the room that the child had jumped from, returned.
The moment he entered, he saw the woman’s injured arm.
“Wh-What happened?! How did you get hurt?!”
He hurried toward her in a panic.
“Doctor, is she okay?”
“Is she okay?”
The two men on either side of her asked simultaneously when they saw the doctor pause in his actions.
“…”
Seeing how the two were acting, the other two women in the room thought that something was… out of place.
“Her wounds are superficial and she has no sprains or broken bones; she’ll be fine after resting for the night. Oh, right. Remember to keep the wound away from water before it heals.”
The doctor said evenly after coughing lightly from being stared at by the two men.
Even though his face was calm, he was muttering to himself,
What’s up with this patient? Why is Mr. Ji treating her so differently? Isn’t Miss Qu his fiancée?
Besides, isn’t this boy another woman’s child? Why is he calling this female patient mommy?
With a head full of questions, the doctor kept his facial expression even as he got his tools out to disinfect Pei Ge’s wounds.
Because the antiseptic stung a little, when the doctor rubbed her arm using a cotton ball soaked in it, she retracted her arm intuitively.
It was a small action, but the sharp man noticed it.
“Doc, be more careful.”
Even though his expression was plain, his tone was laced with threat.
Under this immense pressure and threat, the doctor’s hands trembled and resulted in him poking the woman’s wound by accident.
“Hiss!” She hissed in pain.
“Miss, I’m so sorry—”
He apologized to her hurriedly the moment he saw the faint traces of blood on the cotton.
Alas, before he could complete his apology, a cold hand caught his wrist.
Raising his head, he saw Ji Ziming’s gloomy and cold face.
He shuddered.
“Give it to me; I’ll do it.”
