Chapter 211: Call a Caregiver

Chapter 211

Li Man silently gazed at Huo Jian Sheng. It was the first time she had taken such a close and unabashed look at him. He had a handsome and resolute face with deep facial features and a high, straight nose.

As Huo Jian Sheng slept, he appeared less aloof than usual, and the contours of his features softened.

Li Man felt the warmth transmitted through her palm as Huo Jian Sheng held her hand. She inexplicably felt at ease, and her breathing unconsciously became gentle, afraid of waking him up.

Unbeknownst to her, Li Man fell into a deep sleep once again.

When she woke up again, she saw Chen XiaoHui.

A strange sense of loss surged within Li Man.

"You're awake."

Chen XiaoHui was delighted to see Li Man awake and approached her, asking, "How do you feel? Are you hungry? Would you like some water?"

Li Man nodded and struggled to say, "Thirsty!"

Chen XiaoHui quickly picked up the water cup on the bedside table and scooped some water with a spoon, bringing it to Li Man's lips.

Li Man took a few sips and stopped drinking.

Chen XiaoHui put down the cup and said, "Thank goodness Mr. Huo arrived in time last night, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do. I initially thought someone was jealous of our business, so they caused trouble. But later, I found out that those people were after you." Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com

But how could Li Man not see through it?

Now that they finally had some regular customers, if they closed for a few days, they would easily lose their customers.

After giving it some thought, Li Man said, "Then let's hire someone."

"Hire someone?"

"Yes, let's hire a barbecue chef. That way, we can have an easier time in the future."

Chen XiaoHui hesitated. "But what about you? Who will take care of you?"

"Just hire a caregiver for me. When I can get out of bed and move around, we won't need to hire anyone anymore. I can take care of myself."

"Well..." Chen XiaoHui was somewhat hesitant.

"Let's do it this way then. It would be such a waste to close down; we might lose customers easily," Chen XiaoHui thought Li Man made a valid point and agreed, "I'll go find a barbecue chef later."

"Great!"

They chatted for a while longer, and Chen XiaoHui fed Li Man some porridge before she left.

Before leaving, she arranged for a caregiver to take care of Li Man around the clock.
