After I was released from prison, I had a flash marriage with a boss who was in a vegetative state

"It seems that my uncle's work in Haicheng is about to be completed. Does that mean he will return to Beijing soon?"

Li Xiao frowned slightly: "Why, do you really want me to leave?"

Mu Xiaowan waved her hands quickly: "No, no! I didn't mean that! I just thought that if my uncle wanted to leave, as a junior, I should go and see him off in person..."

She repeated the word "junior" in her heart, telling herself once again that she was a junior.

She couldn't take advantage of her uncle's good manners to indulge herself. This was wrong.

Li Xiao looked at Mu Xiaowan's eager eyes and his heart sank.

In fact, he had never thought about having anything with Mu Xiaowan before. After all, the age gap between the two was too big. In his eyes, she was almost like a daughter.

However, once people have delusions, it becomes very difficult to suppress them.

So he came today, bringing a bouquet of sunflowers.

But before he opened his mouth, all his delusions were shattered by Mu Xiaowan's words.

Yes, how could a young girl like this like an old man like him?

The only thing he was thankful for was that he had never said anything, let alone done anything.

Otherwise, if this layer of window paper was broken, he might never have the face to appear in front of Mu Xiaowan again.

Li Xiao suppressed his emotions little by little, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said: "Okay, I will let you know when I set the date for leaving, and you must come."

He is leaving...

Mu Xiaowan's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, but she did not show it, and her face was still smiling.

"Okay, I will definitely go."

After the two of them chatted dryly for a few sentences, they had nothing else to say.

They just didn't want to talk about it anymore. They were afraid that they wouldn't be able to hold back and would say what was in their hearts.

There is an abyss in front of you. Even if you take a wrong step, you will be doomed.

Li Xiao drank the water in his hand silently, put down the teacup, and said, "Since you are okay, I am relieved and will not disturb your rest."

After saying that, Li Xiao stood up and prepared to leave. Asen, who was standing behind him, saw Li Xiao getting ready to leave and became extremely anxious.

Although their Seventh Master was a reserved person and never said anything, he knew that he cared about Mu Xiaowan.

Their Seventh Master is already 45 years old. At this age, it is not easy for the iron tree to bloom once, and it may be the only time in this life. If he misses it, won’t he really have to live alone for the rest of his life?

Asen was so anxious! He couldn't help but pull Li Xiao.

Li Xiao didn't expect Asen to suddenly pull him, and he sat back on the chair in embarrassment.

Then Li Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at Asen: "What are you doing?"

"I..." Asen said, "Seventh Master, your legs hurt, don't they? I was thinking that since we finally came to the hospital, why don't we let the doctor take a look at you?"

When Mu Xiaowan heard that Li Xiao's legs hurt, she asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Why is your leg hurting for no reason?"

Asen seized the opportunity and said immediately: "This is an old problem of our Seventh Master. When he was young, he didn't take care of his body and injured his legs. Later, he didn't pay attention to maintenance, so he suffered from leg pain..."

"It was cloudy these past two days, so his leg disease relapsed. He was just trying to be strong in front of you so he didn't show it. But as his most trusted subordinate, how could I let him endure the pain? That's why I was anxious. Miss Mu, please don't laugh at me and our Seventh Master!"

"How could that be? You are so loyal to your uncle, how could I laugh at you?" Mu Xiaowan saw Li Xiao again and said, "Since your legs are uncomfortable, don't be so stubborn. Let's call a doctor to take a look."

"What? Call a doctor? Who's sick?"

Following the sound coming from outside the door, Song Mingyi pushed the door open and walked in.

Asen didn't expect Song Mingyi to come at this time. Just as he was about to speak, Mu Xiaowan immediately said, "It's my uncle. Asen said that my uncle's leg disease has relapsed and he is in pain now, so he needs to see a doctor. Now that you are here, there is no need to call a doctor specifically."

Song Mingyi was anxious: "Uncle, does your leg hurt? Let me take your pulse."

As he spoke, Song Mingyi grabbed Li Xiao's wrist and began to take his pulse.

Seeing this, Asen broke out in a cold sweat on his back and three big words flashed over his head: It's over.

He was playing the victim for their Seventh Master, but he was caught by the young lady...

He was well aware of the young lady's medical skills, and he was afraid that they would be exposed now.

Song Mingyi felt the patient's pulse and frowned.

When Mu Xiaowan saw this, her heart was in knots.

She couldn't help but ask, "Ming Yi, what's going on? Is my uncle in a bad condition?"

"It's a little bad," Song Mingyi said seriously, "Uncle, I told you when I examined your pulse before that you were born with a weak constitution and you didn't take good care of yourself later in life, so your physical condition is very bad. Fortunately, I can take care of your body."

"But the premise of my recuperation for you is that you must be pure and abstain from desires during this period. Don't think about things you shouldn't think about or do things you shouldn't do. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that you will live to be ninety-nine years old."

The corners of Li Xiao's mouth twitched and he subconsciously looked at Mu Xiaowan.

Mu Xiaowan looked dazed, as if she didn't understand what Song Mingyi said for a moment.

When she finally reacted, her face turned pale, and she asked solemnly: "Does my uncle have someone he likes?"

"Yes, I got it." Li Xiao's eyes fell on the bunch of sunflowers, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

Maybe he was really a jerk, but he couldn't deceive himself. He was indeed attracted to Mu Xiaowan and thought about her.

When Mu Xiaowan saw the raised corners of Li Xiao's lips and the gentle smile on his face, she felt her heart sinking again and again, and finally sank into a bottomless abyss.

Originally, she was still hoping that Song Mingyi might have seen it wrong.

How could a man like Li Xiao suddenly have thoughts about a woman? But now thinking about it, her judgment is simply inexplicable. Li Xiao's excellence is obvious to all.

Even though she had never seen him being chased by women, she knew that there were many beautiful women around him, and there were countless outstanding women. At his age now, it was normal for him to have someone he liked.

Suddenly, Mu Xiaowan felt very ashamed.

She was ashamed that she actually hoped Li Xiao would remain single forever.

It seemed that there were endless possibilities between her and him.

But this idea is too selfish and too despicable.

Mu Xiaowan couldn't believe that she would actually have such an idea.

She smiled as if to cover up and said, "My little uncle has someone he likes, that's great! When you get married in the future, remember to send me an invitation. I will definitely be there to congratulate you on your wedding!"

Li Xiao frowned: "You want me to get married?"
