After calming down, Li Jiuyuan restored the items to their original state.

He wanted to see what tricks Jiang Momo was up to.

Jiang Momo came out of the shower still wearing her bathrobe.

Li Jiuyuan lay coldly on the bed, not uttering a word, his stern face like a statue.

Even a casual snapshot could be used as a fashion poster, even though he's just wearing casual loungewear and his hair isn't combed.

But even just that one glance was enough for Jiang Momo to think that Li Jiuyuan was incredibly handsome.

But that expression was really awful.

I felt much better when I was eating.

"Ninth Master, are you finished with work so early tonight?"

"You'd love for me to be constantly busy, preferably too busy to care about you, wouldn't you?"

baffling.

Jiang Momo only wanted to ask him a question out of concern, but he retorted, and she turned her face away somewhat unhappily.

Why aren't you saying anything?

"My hair isn't dry yet, I'll go blow-dry it first."

Jiang Momo was so sad that tears were about to fall, but Li Jiuyuan couldn't help but treat her with such a cold face.

He speaks in a hurried and fierce manner.

Those tender moments from the past seem to be gone forever.

Even though she hadn't done anything to wrong him, it felt like there was a vast galaxy separating them.

Jiang Momo felt utterly exhausted, her mind filled with suspicion and doubt.

Li Jiuyuan stood up with a cold face, found a hair dryer, and asked Jiang Momo to sit down.

She stood up and started blow-drying Jiang Momo's hair.

"No need, I can do it myself."

Jiang Momo reached out to snatch the hair dryer, but Li Jiuyuan pressed down on her shoulder.

Jiang Momo had no choice but to sit quietly after being forced to sit down.

Li Jiuyuan's hair-drying technique is quite good; he even knows to blow-dry from the top of the head to the ends, using hot air first and then cold air.

Halfway through blow-drying, he even took some hair oil from Jiang Momo's dressing table and applied it to her.

Jiang Momo often felt that blow-drying her hair was a very tedious and troublesome process.

But when Li Jiuyuan's hand ran through her hair, she inexplicably felt that it was a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

But another voice kept telling her that the beauty she was experiencing was all fake and fleeting, like a bubble.

Seeing that Jiang Momo's hair was almost dry, Li Jiuyuan couldn't resist picking up a small strand and gently sniffing it.

Even though they were using the same shampoo, he felt that Jiang Momo's hair smelled much better than his.

Jiang Momo turned her head and saw Li Jiuyuan's nose and her own hair.

She blushed with embarrassment and annoyance.

"You're shy already?"

Li Jiuyuan rested his chin on Jiang Momo's shoulder, burying his head in her hair and inhaling deeply.

He himself felt very tired after arguing with Jiang Momo these past few days.

The brief physical intimacy between the two of them made him feel very peaceful.

He doesn't want much.

Even just that, a warm and cozy moment was enough for him to dream of.

Jiang Momo was a little at a loss. After a while, she finally reached out and hugged Li Jiuyuan.

The two of them remained in that position for a long time.

However, the things Jiang Momo kept in the drawer remained a thorn in Li Jiuyuan's side, and he wouldn't let it go so quickly.

Those unresolved questions accompanied the two into their dreams, tormenting the person they cared about like a nightmare.

Jiang Momo has already been contacting some hospitals privately.

She got a lot of hospital phone numbers through someone, and one hospital called her early in the morning.

Jiang Momo was still half asleep when she reached for her phone, but Li Jiuyuan reached for it first.

He thought it was his own phone and answered it without thinking.

"Hello, is this Ms. Jiang? We have found the information about the hospital transfer you inquired about a few days ago."

Li Jiuyuan was not fully awake either; he was searching for keywords in the other person's words.

"Ms. Jiang, transfer to another hospital? What are you talking about? I haven't consulted them."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Momo felt a chill run down her spine.

She immediately sat up like a frightened bird and snatched the phone from Li Jiuyuan's hand.

"Sorry, you dialed the wrong number."

The busy tone of the call ending made Jiang Momo realize that she had gone too far.

But if Li Jiuyuan continues talking with that doctor, his plan to transfer his grandmother to another hospital will be completely exposed.

It remains to be seen how Li Jiuyuan will react at that time.

I'll try to figure out a way to cover this up for now, and hopefully Li Jiuyuan won't become too suspicious, since Li Jiuyuan is obviously already suspicious.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was your phone."

Jiang Momo shook her head and told Li Jiuyuan that everything was fine.

Immediately afterwards, Li Jiuyuan asked the question she least wanted to hear.

Are you arranging for your grandmother to be transferred to another hospital?

As expected of Li Jiuyuan, he always has such a good ability to see through people's hearts, and immediately guessed what Jiang Momo wanted to do.

Jiang Momo was both amused and exasperated, and she gave a wry smile.

"No, it's just a nuisance call. Grandma is doing fine in the hospital, why would I transfer her to another hospital? These hospitals just want more patients to go to her."

After saying that, Jiang Momo stretched lazily, rubbed her eyes, and told Li Jiuyuan that it was almost time to get up.

Watching Jiang Momo walk towards the washroom, Li Jiuyuan's eyes narrowed dangerously.

He had just memorized the phone number and immediately took out his own phone.

I messaged my assistant, asking her to help me find out which hospital this phone number belongs to.

It seems Jiang Momo's actions were more urgent than he had expected. He had thought that Jiang Momo had prepared all that in order to escape one day.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Momo had already planned to take Grandma away as well.

Li Jiuyuan realized that his grandmother was Jiang Momo's last weakness in this world.

As long as her grandmother is still alive, Jiang Momo will not be able to leave.

"Tell that hospital that if they dare to accept a patient like this, I will make them pay dearly. Of course, give the same order to any other good hospitals."

It would be very difficult for Jiang Momo to transfer her grandmother to a regular public hospital.

There aren't enough resources and conditions there to take on a patient who requires such a large amount of time to care for.

Therefore, Jiang Momo is more likely to choose some private hospitals, and if that happens, don't blame Li Jiuyuan for reaching so far.

Jiang Momo went to the washroom and immediately took out her phone to call back the number she had just received.

"Hello, you just mentioned a conclusion. Could you tell me more about it?"

"Oh, Ms. Jiang, we regret to inform you that we cannot process your transfer to another hospital here."

Jiang Momo became anxious upon hearing this, as this family was the most likely one she had consulted.

We'd almost finished discussing all the subsequent fees, and all we needed to do was set a specific date. Why are you suddenly saying it can't be done now?
