Chapter 298
Christopher and Xavier immediately stopped talking, both looking guilty.
“Bro, why didn't you knock before you come in? That's really rude! 11
Stefan's handsome face was expressionless, like an iceberg. He walked up to Xavier, knocked on the hung up plastered foot,
and asked, "Does it still hurt?"
Xavier's face immediately crumpled as he cried out in pain, "Ouch, ouch, ouch! Bro, are you trying to kill me? I sacrificed my life
to save your ex-wife. Is this how you repay me?"
"You seem to be in high spirits. Looks like you're completely fine. In that case, stop telling everybody that you saved her.”
Stefan's voice was cold, as if he did not want to accept the fact that Xavier had saved Renee's life.
After all, the status of life savior carried a lot of weight. In ancient times, the rescued victim may even repay the savior with
personal favors. Stefan felt very unhappy thinking about it.
"That's right!"
Christopher chimed in, "This brat even wants her to take care of his everyday needs. He's shameless."
"Take care of his everyday needs?"
Stefan narrowed his eyes slightly, pondering the meaning of that comment.
Right then, Renee pushed the door open and came in with a steaming hot bowl of yam and pork ribs congee. She said warmly, "
Xavier, get up. I brought you supper. Yam and pork ribs congee will help your wounds heal. I'll feed you."
Renee only realized that Stefan and Christopher were both in the ward after she walked in. She felt embarrassed.
"You... Why are you guys here?"
Stefan glanced at the congee and snorted. "Isn't it normal for us to be here? But you... You brought him a bowl of congee in the
middle of the night. How very considerate of you!"
Renee thought Stefan must be looking to argue with her again. She just rolled her eyes, walked around him, and didn't bother to
talk to him at all.
She sat down on the edge of the bed, scooped the congee with a spoon, blew on the spoonful of congee carefully, and extended
it to Xavier's mouth. "What are you waiting for? Open your mouth. The nurse said you can consume some liquid food now that
the anesthetic has passed."

Xavier wanted to open his mouth.
Because he was actually really hungry.
However, when his eyes came into contact with Stefan's death stare, he dared not even breathe, let alone open his mouth.
"What's the matter? I said I'll take care of your daily needs, and you agreed to listen to me."
Renee looked like an old mother educating her rebellious son. She said with a stern expression, "Open your mouth. You must
finish this bowl of congee no matter what."
"You..."
Xavier's mouth was half open. He was in quite the dilemma.
Both Renee and Stefan were people he did not dare to offend. He was caught in the middle!
But the congee looked so delicious. He was so hungry. Renee's attitude was so sincere. Xavier finally decided to open his mouth
and eat the congee.
Stefan said coldly, "You have a broken leg, not a broken hand. Why can't you eat it yourself?"
Renee was very upset when she heard this and retorted, "Are you cold-blooded? And you call yourself his brother? He recently
escaped the jaws of death with a broken leg. What's wrong if I feed him?"
Stefan remained silent for a moment, then said disdainfully, "In that case, let me feed him."
He took the congee from Renee, stiffly scooped a spoonful, and brought it to Xavier's mouth. "Eat this!"
"Cough!"
Xavier was flabbergasted. He was obviously unwilling. "I don't think this is necessary."
"So she can feed you, but I can't?"
Stefan said coldly, "I've thought about it. As your bro, I should also do something for you. From now on, I'll take care of your daily
needs."
"No, you don't have to! Really!"
