Chapter 950 Wound Spreading 4

Chen Ling suddenly raised his voice, which made Li Lili and the others beside him anxious, very worried about Chen Ling's emotions...

So Li Lili immediately patted Chen Ling's arm, signaling him to be mindful of his attitude.

After hearing Chen Xiaoqi's voice on the other end of the phone again, Chen Ling first calmed himself down, then laughed and said, "Yeah, she made a fuss for a long time last night. I could hear it from my room. It's normal for kids to make a fuss at night. I was just thinking, you adults are really something, going a whole day without calling? Don't you think that's wrong of you adults? You can do that but not?"

"Uh. I know, we really shouldn't have done that. We were just too busy to pay attention," Chen Xiaoqi said, her voice lacking confidence.

"Tell me the truth, are you too busy to care, or too busy having fun to care? I'm so curious. Can't you send us a message tonight to ask how Qingqing is doing? You have to tell us how you are doing over there, okay? You're worried about Qingqing at home and don't bother to ask, but you don't even bother to let us know. You're really something." Chen Ling continued to speak at this moment.

Chen Ling was not satisfied with Chen Xiaoqi's actions.

However, at that moment, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "Hey, Chen Ling, stop talking so much nonsense. Ask him what's going on over there. Is he busy?"

"Oh, okay, okay," Chen Ling replied to Li Lili reluctantly after hearing this.

Chen Ling then calmed himself down and asked, "What's the situation on your end? You've been playing around and haven't had time to contact us?"

"Everything's fine here, it's just that the timing was a bit rushed. Yeah, I admit I didn't handle this well, I wasn't thoughtful enough, and it wasn't appropriate. Actually, no matter what, I should have let you know I was safe as soon as I got here, especially since Qingqing is still there, I should have called to check on her." Chen Xiaoqi quickly replied.

Chen Xiaoqi knew that Chen Ling was right and there was no problem with what he said. It was indeed the right thing to do.

"Yes, you know that's good. No matter what, you should have let us know you were safe, right? Okay, okay, now that we know you're alright, we're relieved. We were just chatting here, and we were talking about you. You hadn't contacted us for a while, and we were all a bit worried." Chen Ling said calmly.

"Okay, I understand. Tell Mom and Dad not to worry, everything's fine here, nothing's wrong. I'll be back in a couple of days, and when I get back, I'll go to your house to apologize." Chen Xiaoqi said with a smile.

Hearing that Chen Ling's tone had softened somewhat, Chen Xiaoqi knew that Chen Ling wasn't so angry anymore. So she quickly replied to Chen Ling with a smile. Seeing that Chen Ling wasn't angry anymore, Chen Xiaoqi's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally at ease.

"The 'bearing thorns to apologize' part is a bit of an exaggeration; it's not that serious. But you need to be more careful next time. You're going out like this, not even taking care of anything at home, and not even reporting your safety." Just then, Chen Ling continued.

"Okay, okay, I know I was wrong. I really shouldn't have done that this time. I'm sorry." Chen Xiaoqi quickly apologized again.

However, at that moment, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "That's about enough, don't delay her business."

"Is there anything else you want to say to Mom and Dad, or Qingqing? They're with me." After hearing what Li Lili said, Chen Ling immediately asked Chen Xiaoqi.

"Um, well, I have something to do for a bit right now, how about we do it tonight? I'll start a video call for you guys earlier tonight, okay?" Chen Xiaoqi thought for a moment, then quickly began to speak...

Chen Xiaoqi was thinking that she was still outside and quite busy, and saying a few more words would take up too much time. Besides, Mr. Li and the others were waiting nearby.

"Okay, then let's talk about it tonight." Chen Ling replied immediately after hearing this.

Then he saw Chen Ling standing to the side, and after finishing his sentence, he immediately hung up the phone.

Just as Chen Xiaoqi put down her phone, Li's mother asked, "Xiaoqi, what's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"Oh, Mom, nothing happened, don't worry about it. I forgot to let them know I was safe last night, and they were a little worried, so they called to check on me," Chen Xiaoqi explained immediately after hearing this.

Seeing how worried Li's mother was about her, Chen Xiaoqi was afraid that Li's mother was overthinking things.

"Oh, I see. I was thinking of reminding you to call home yesterday, but I got so busy I forgot. I was just too tired. They must have been worried sick," Mrs. Li said with a smile.

Hearing that it was because of this, Li's mother felt much more relieved.

"Yes, I was worried, but it's all right now. I told them everything's fine. I was just too tired when I got back yesterday, so I fell asleep as soon as I lay down and didn't call them. I've been running around all day today and didn't think to tell them. I neglected them." Chen Xiaoqi then spoke somewhat apologetically.

"It's alright. Just call them tonight and have a good talk with them. That way, they won't worry so much." Li's father then smiled and said to Chen Xiaoqi.

“Yes, Dad is right. We should call them tonight and have a good talk, otherwise I’m worried Mom will get upset.” Li Ran quickly echoed her father’s words.

Just then, Li Ran finished speaking and looked at Chen Xiaoqi with a very serious expression, as if he were speaking to Chen Xiaoqi in a very formal manner.

"Yes, yes, don't worry. I already told them. I'll video call them tonight and have a good talk with them. I think they'll understand. It's okay, don't overthink it. Let's continue." Chen Xiaoqi quickly replied.

"Okay, that's fine then," Li's mother said with a smile.

However, Chen Ling and his group started eating breakfast at this time.

"Breakfast is ready, come and eat," Aunt Yang said with a smile as she walked over.

……

So Chen Ling and the others immediately headed towards the bathroom, and then gradually began to walk back towards the living room. A short while later, they were back at the dining table.

After everyone had arrived, they began to eat breakfast...

"We even have steamed egg custard today," Chen Ling said with a smile as soon as he saw the food on the table.

"Yes, this is for Xiaoxue, but I made a lot so you can have more too," Aunt Yang said with a smile.

"Oh? It's for Xiaoxue? How can I eat more? If I eat more, she probably won't have any left. At most, I can have a few bites with her," Chen Ling said with a smile.

Chen Ling was just trying to play a joke on Aunt Yang...

"Oh, you want to eat it too? If you want to eat it, I can make it for you tomorrow." Aunt Yang replied immediately after hearing this.

Then, Chen's mother smiled and said to Aunt Yang, "Don't mind him. He's just joking with you. What's this about eating or not? It's not a big deal. If you want to eat it today, just try a couple of bites."

"Okay, Aunt Yang, I was just kidding. I'm not eating it. You don't need to rush to make it for me. It's okay, I'm not eating it." Chen Ling said with a smile.

"Okay, then if you're not going to eat it, I won't make it for you. Ah, mainly because I didn't expect you to eat it today," Aunt Yang said with some guilt.

Aunt Yang originally thought it was just a normal dish, and that not many people would eat it, but she didn't expect that everyone would want to eat it so much.

"Yes, yes, it's okay, Aunt Yang. Chen Ling can eat some with me later. I can't possibly finish such a big portion. Everyone can eat it. I'll just have a little. I can't just eat this and fill myself up." At this moment, Li Lili said with a smile.

"Okay," Aunt Yang replied quickly upon seeing this.

"Alright, alright, dinner's ready." Then, Mr. Chen said with a smile from the side.

And so, Chen Ling and his father began their meal. For some reason, breakfast was unusually quiet today.

"Mom and Dad, Xiaoxue, I'm going to work now." Chen Ling said with a smile.

"Okay, sure. Be careful on the road," Mrs. Chen quickly instructed.

Then Chen Ling smiled at his mother, immediately stood up, and started walking over...

However, at that moment, Chen's father smiled and said to Chen Ling, "If there's nothing else going on today, I'll come back early this afternoon. I'll be waiting for you to come back for dinner."

"Huh, what's wrong? You usually wait for me to eat, and I've never seen you rush me. Is it some holiday today? Is something wrong?" Chen Ling asked, somewhat surprised.

"Uh... Are you stupid? Xiaoxue's leg is still injured. Shouldn't you have come back to check on her sooner?" Upon hearing Chen Ling's question, Mr. Chen instantly felt that his son was hopeless and said this to Chen Ling with a helpless expression...

"Haha, is that what you mean? Oh, it doesn't matter at all. I'm sure you'll take good care of her. Besides, look at him, he hasn't said anything about wanting me to come back soon, so don't worry about it." Chen Ling said with a smile.

"Oh, is that what you mean? Okay then, but I have to say, girls are sometimes shy and embarrassed to be too direct with you. Why are you still arguing with me? Alright, alright, you should go now." Mr. Chen waved his hand as he spoke to Chen Ling.

At this moment, Li Lili listened quietly to Chen's father and Chen Ling talking, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Okay, then I'll be going." Chen Ling then waved his hand and said.

After Chen Ling spoke, he strode out...

"Hmm...it's so much quieter now, that's great." After Chen Ling left, Chen's mother couldn't help but say with a sigh.

Seeing this, Mr. Chen nodded in agreement, indicating that he agreed with Mrs. Chen's statement.

"Mom and Dad, you two take your time eating. I'm going to take a shower first." Just then, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up with a smile.

"What did you say? Take a bath? Your wound has just scabbed over, so don't go take a bath. Wait until it's completely healed before you take a bath," Chen's mother immediately advised after hearing this.

"Hehe, Mom, you said it's scabbed over, so it's definitely fine. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'll just go wash it for a bit. You go ahead and eat, don't worry about me, I'll be out in a bit." Li Lili quickly said with a smile.

However, at that moment, Li Lili immediately stood up and started walking back to the bedroom...

Mrs. Chen wanted to say something, but she didn't have a chance.

After returning, Li Lili began packing her pajamas, preparing to take them to the bathroom.

Li Lili did indeed finish her shower quickly, just as she had said. However, while showering, she felt a slight pain. So she quickened her pace and hurriedly got out of the shower.

Li Lili then wiped her body and immediately changed her clothes.

However, it was at this moment that Li Lili discovered her wound had begun to fester...

Liquid started leaking out...

Chapter 952 Deeply Annoyed 1

At that moment, Li Lili began to think of a solution. Aside from disinfection, she seemed to have no other options.

Li Lili quickly picked up a cotton swab and began to clean her wound.

"Ouch, it hurts so much, I can't bring myself to do it," Li Lili muttered to herself.

Li Lili then immediately felt despair.

However, at that moment, Li Lili had a sudden inspiration and immediately sent a message to Chen's mother, asking her to come over after she finished eating.

Soon, Chen's mother saw the phone and came over.

"Xiaoxue, what's wrong? Is there something you want to tell me secretly? You even made me come to find you." As soon as Chen's mother walked in, she immediately asked with a smile.

After seeing the message sent by Li Lili, Chen's mother was extremely curious.

"Oh, Mom, please help me! My wound is infected, but I just can't bring myself to do it," Li Lili said loudly as soon as she saw Chen's mother approaching.

"Huh? What happened? It actually got inflamed." Chen's mother was incredulous when she heard this, and asked in surprise.

"Yeah, that's right. I think I broke the wound while I was taking a shower just now, and now it's infected. What should I do? It keeps oozing fluid." Li Lili said, sounding aggrieved.

Upon hearing this, Chen's mother first let out a long sigh, then glanced at Li Lili's wound...

"Oh, is it that serious? No, no, I can't bear to look at this, how can I help you? How about this, let's go to the hospital to get it checked out quickly." After seeing this, Chen's mother became very anxious and quickly began to persuade Li Lili.

Just then, Li Lili smiled and said, "It's okay, trust yourself. Just rub it on for me, don't be so nervous. It's just some anti-inflammatory medicine, it'll work really well after you apply it, and it should be better soon. Even if you take me to the hospital, they'll use this to check me, so you won't have to go back and forth."

"That won't do. I'm scared just looking at it. I can't bring myself to do it. How about we have your dad come over?" Mrs. Chen composed herself, swallowed, and then smiled as she spoke.

"No, please don't tell my dad, or she'll tell Chen Ling, and he'll definitely be angry with me." Just then, Li Lili nervously grabbed Chen's mother's arm, speaking to her. Li Lili was worried that if Chen's father found out, he would tell Chen Ling. That's why she had Chen's mother come over by herself.

“You can’t not tell him either. I can’t bring myself to touch your wound. My hands are so weak. You don’t believe me? Look at this. How am I supposed to clean it for you?” Chen’s mother glanced at Li Lili’s wound and then spoke in a panic.

"It's really nothing serious, Mom, don't worry. It's really nothing serious. Just wipe it for me. It's my pain, so it's okay." At this moment, Li Lili endured the pain and comforted Chen's mother.

Actually, Li Lili was also a little panicked at this moment. She was terrified.

"No, I can't do it. I'm scared." Encouraged by Li Lili, Chen's mother picked up the cotton swab, but then put it down again.
