Chapter 29 Why Dont You Listen (2/2)

Jacob glanced at the middle aged doctor and asked him,” What's wrong with her?”

The doctor pushed his glasses up his nose and answered respectfully,” Mr. Gu, she has acute gastroenteritis because of her disorderly diet, accompanied with overeating. Her symptoms will

get better after the infusion...”

”Well, be quick. Don't you see her face is turning pale?”

”Yes. Yes, I will.”

Soon, with the help of the highly efficient doctors and nurses, Emily's condition stabilized after the infusion.

”Are you still feeling pain?” asked Jacob worriedly. Upon seeing Emily still wrap her belly with her hands, he stretched out his hand, trying to comfort her.

Emily dodged him, feeling embarrassed, and then replied,” I'm okay now.”

Jacob's face crinkled as he retracted his hand in a calm manner. He stood up and left the room, but returned shortly with a light blue blanket and put it on Emily's belly.

”Thank you.” Emily was touch by his moves; with a soft tone she said to him,” Mr. Gu, I'm sorry.”

Emily had intended to treat him well with a dinner, but now she completely messed it up.

”You don't need to apologize for being ill.” Jacob said calmly as he tried hard to constrained his rage,” Since you didn't listen to me and got yourself in trouble for overeating, shouldn't you apologize for not caring your health?”

”I know. I was wrong.” Emily lowered her head in embarrassment, as if she were a schoolgirl who had been told off by her teacher.

Jacob pinched her tiny ears and commanded,” Raise your head.”

Emily raised her head to look at him, her eyes full of tears, and said,” I'll be sure to take care of myself.”

”Remember the lesson.” Jacob lightly pinched her ears again until he saw her ears turn red.

”Oh my! We forgot to pay the bill when we left the restaurant.” Emily felt embarrassed when it suddenly hit her.

Back then, it was too urgent that they forgot to pay the check. Much to Emily's surprise, no one even tried to stop them!

Jacob felt no need to hide the truth from her and explained,” The Romance Restaurant is under my ownership. Do I need to pay my own restaurant for having a meal?”

Emily's eyes lit up with surprise when she realized that Jacob was the boss of the restaurant. 'So does that mean he didn't intend to make me pay the bill in the first place?' Emily was speechless. It is inconceivable that she had been worrying about how much she was going to pay throughout the whole dinner.

”No wonder that's how things turned out.” Oh well, that's just great!

”So this time doesn't count and you must make it up to me next time.”

”What?” Emily understood him and nodded,” Deal.”

'Since he has helped me so much, I must treat him another time, no matter what. Even if my savings are not enough to cover another fancy restaurant he picks, I can always use my credit card.'

Jacob finally let out a big smile, stretching from one ear to the other.

The doctor prescribed drugs for Emily after the infusion, and advised her to observe the dos and don'ts.

Emily kept nodding her head while Jacob watched at her side and said,” Please, write them down.”

Obviously, he was talking to the doctor.

The doctor immediately wrote down a list on a piece of paper and passed it to them.

Jacob reached out for the paper, caught a sight of it and stuck it on Emily's forehead.

”Emily, I order you to keep healthy for me.”

Emily took the paper and listened to Jacob's words attentively, as a sudden sense of fear engulfed her thoughts.

What Jacob said to Emily made her feel like she was a pig waiting to be killed after being properly fattened... How horrified!

After the infusion, Jacob drove Emily back. On their way back, he stopped over to buy her a pack of porridge.
