When his wicked ex-girlfriend beckoned him, CEO Li lost control!

Chapter 30: I'll pay double whatever the Li family offers!

Upon hearing this, Xu Xingtao nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay."

As the group entered the room, the crying seemed to amplify tenfold instantly.

The little guy's face turned red, his little fists were clenched tightly, his mouth was wide open, and he was crying his heart out.

Lin Zhixia frowned. This was really comparable to that little devil from the Li family.

Xu Xingtao picked up the child and patted him, but the child continued to cry, and it was no use at all.

"Recently, the baby has been crying from morning to night. He cries when I pick him up, and he cries when I breastfeed him. We've had three different postpartum nannies. The last one only worked for two days before leaving, saying that the baby was cursed."

Lin Zhixia approached the baby, who was crying incessantly, but she understood what the baby was saying.

"It hurts...it hurts in the back of my neck, it hurts every time I lie down."

Lin Zhixia paused for a moment, then turned her head to look at the baby's neck.

"Ms. Xu, may I hold the baby for a moment?"

Xu Xingtao nodded, then handed the child to Lin Zhixia.

Lin Zhixia carefully held the child in her arms, gently supporting the back of his neck with one hand and slowly stroking him with her fingertips.

The skin near the hairline felt normal to the touch.

But when she touched a certain spot, the baby's crying suddenly became very loud.

"It's right there, it hurts so much! Every time I lie down, it presses on that spot, it's so painful..."

That's what the baby's crying means when translated.

Lin Zhixia's heart skipped a beat, and she looked up at Xu Xingtao.

"Ms. Xu, have you paid attention to the area on the back of your baby's neck?"

Xu Xingtao leaned over and took a look.

"No, there's nothing wrong here. The skin looks perfectly normal. I took her to the hospital for a checkup before, and the doctor didn't say there was anything wrong here."

Lin Zhixia frowned and carefully touched that spot again; the baby's crying had clearly intensified.

"Waaaaah, waaaaah..."

She felt a small nodule below, which was almost undetectable without careful examination, but for a newborn, this foreign body sensation could be torture every second.

Xu Xingtao also touched it, and her pupils suddenly contracted.

"There really is one! We've never noticed it before. What... what is this thing?"

"I don't know, it might be some kind of subcutaneous cyst, but the location is very hidden and can't be seen on the surface, so when he cries during the day, the weight of the back of his head keeps pressing on this spot at night."

Xu Xingtao was dumbfounded.

She took her child to the hospital for three months, had a full-body check-up, and changed nannies three times.

Everyone told her the baby was fine and that she was just too nervous, saying it was a normal crying period for newborns. But it turned out to be a small cyst that was almost undetectable.

but……

Xu Xingtao asked in confusion, "How did you know? We checked other places too, and we didn't expect there to be a cyst here."

Xu Xingtao paused for a moment, then made up a story: "I used to be interested in this, and I studied pediatric massage with a traditional Chinese medicine doctor from my hometown. I'm quite sensitive to newborns, and these subcutaneous cysts are located in rather hidden places, making them easy to miss during routine physical examinations."

"Take your baby for an ultrasound tomorrow, specifically to check the back of the neck area. That should confirm it."

Xu Xingtao looked at the newborn baby in her arms, who was less than a month old, and her eyes reddened. She pressed her face tightly against the baby's and said with guilt.

"It's all my fault as a mother. I didn't pay enough attention to these details. No wonder he kept crying. I even believed those superstitious people and thought the child was possessed by some evil spirit."

Xu Yanzhou gently comforted Xu Xingtao: "Sister, how can you blame yourself? Even the doctor didn't notice, so how did you know?"

Lin Zhixia suggested, "You can try having him lie on his side first. As long as you don't put pressure on that area, see if he still cries. That should be pretty much it."

Xu Xingtao quickly grabbed a small towel, rolled it into a cylinder, and placed it on the bed so the child could lie on his side.

Almost immediately, the child's cries changed from heart-wrenching to soft sobs, and then gradually subsided.

The whole room fell silent.

Xu Xingtao exclaimed in surprise, "It really is! Miss Lin, you're amazing! Come on, let's go outside and talk."

As the group walked into the living room, Xu Xingtao became increasingly enthusiastic towards Lin Zhixia, constantly stuffing fruit and drinks into her hands.

"Don't leave today. You've helped us so much, we have to treat you to a good meal. Also... Miss Lin, your profession is so strong, could you come and help me take care of my child?"

"Don't worry, you'll definitely be treated well financially. Whatever your current employer pays you, I'll give you double. However, we're usually abroad, and we only stay in China for a short time. If you'd like, you can come with us then."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhixia suddenly hesitated.

The original owner had desperately wanted to go abroad, because even if the Li family had all the connections and influence, it was impossible for them to catch up with her overseas.

Moreover, even if the Xu family isn't as powerful as the Li family, they can at least protect her, which is better than her having to venture abroad alone in the future.

Moreover, double her monthly salary is more than enough for her to live on.

Seeing this, Xu Yanzhou pulled Lin Zhixia aside and whispered something to her.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. What are you still hesitating for? I will also be going abroad at that time, so we can look after each other. You can rest assured."

"Besides, you're helping my sister take care of her child, and we're family, so you don't need to have any other worries. Even if you don't want to work for my sister anymore in the future, I can help you find other resources, and you won't go hungry."

Lin Zhixia admitted that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her current situation, and since Li Jingchuan had already managed to find Jiangcheng, it was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't find Li Chengyuan's workplace in the future.

Beijing is a city that is neither too big nor too small. Although the original owner had used all his connections to cover up the car accident.

But nothing stays hidden forever, and with her, it's pretty much the same.

"I... I'll think about it some more. I'm mainly working for the Li family right now, and I just received an advance on my salary and signed a contract recently. Even if I wanted to leave right now..."

Lin Zhixia signed a contract, and the terms are very clear. If she does not act in accordance with the contract, the Li family has the right to sue her.

Xu Yanzhou had come up with a foolproof plan for her: "How about this, I'll pay back the money for you, and then you can find a way to talk to A Yuan yourself. But I suggest you leave secretly. If A Yuan finds out you're leaving, he definitely won't let it go."

How could Lin Zhixia dare to tell Li Chengyuan that she was leaving? That would be digging her own grave. What if she provoked him?

However, Lin Zhixia wasn't completely brainless. In her memory, she knew that the original owner had practically no interaction with Xu Yanzhou.

From the moment he inexplicably started helping her, to now wanting to help her stay away from Li Chengyuan.

Lin Zhixia narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Xu Yanzhou with a serious expression.

"Xu Yanzhou, are you helping me like this for some other purpose?"
