Xia Mengjiao was soon returned to her ward, because the anesthesia hadnât worn off yet, so she was still unconscious when she came back!
It was only after more than half an hour that Xia Mengjiao slowly opened her eyes.
From the moment Xia Mengjiao was brought back to now, Chu Liyuan had been holding her hand without ever letting go, and upon seeing her awake, he immediately asked, âHow do you feel? Does it hurt a lot?â
Xia Mengjiao shook her head as she looked at Chu Liyuan.
âThe effects of the anesthesia havenât completely worn off yet, right? Once they do, it will start to hurt!â Jian Dan spoke as someone who had been through it before.
âYouâve been through a lot, my wife!â Chu Liyuan didnât care whether there were others around, pressing his forehead against Xia Mengjiaoâs.
Xia Mengjiaoâs pale lips slowly curved into a smile.
Such a scene of public displays of affection wasnât suitable for too many onlookers, soâ¦
âUm, since Xia Mengjiao is awake, weâll head back first, and Iâll come see you tomorrow!â Jian Dan didnât want to disturb them.
Chu Liyuanâs parents also tactfully accompanied Jian Dan and left together.
It was only after leaving the hospital and getting back into the car that Jian Dan turned to Chu Liyuan and asked, âUncle, how come youâre here too?â
âYouâll find out soon enough!â Chu Liyuan said with a devilish charm, and with a press on the gas pedal, the car sped off.
âUncle, where are you taking me?â Jian Dan asked, noticing they werenât on the way home.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chu Liyuan didnât respond and just sped up the carâ¦
Soon, the car stopped near Chu Liyuanâs motherâs art studio.
âUncle, why did you suddenly bring me here?â Jian Dan asked, she hadnât been here since the wedding.
âCome with me~â Chu Liyuan said with his lips curled, taking Jian Danâs hand and heading towards the seaside.
It was only at the seaside that Chu Liyuan stopped and Jian Dan asked, âUncle, you still havenât told me why you suddenly brought me here.â
âNo one will bother us here!â
As soon as Chu Liyuan spoke, Jian Dan immediately understood the reason for his appearance at the hospital was because of her!
âUncle, do you feel like Iâve been neglecting you lately?â
âWhat do you think?â Chu Liyuan replied as if it was a foregone conclusion.
At home, that little one was constantly glued to Jian Jianâs side, leaving no time for him, so he had to take Jian Jian out to have some alone time with her.
âOkay! I guess I really have been neglecting you these past few days.â
âItâs not a guess!â
âAlright! So how would you like me to make it up to you?â Jian Dan asked, holding Chu Liyuanâs cheeks in her hands.
Chu Liyuan pulled Jian Dan into his embrace with one arm, âStay here tonight!â
âAh? Butâ¦â
âNo objections!
And Iâve already arranged everything at Li Garden.â
âOh! Okay then!â
âWhy does Jian Jian seem so reluctant?â Chu Liyuan pinched Jian Danâs chin gently, tilting her face up to look into his eyes.
âNo, not at all, how could I be? I couldnât be happier!â
âYouâd better be!â
âI truly am, I really am!â
âAlright! Iâll choose to believe you for now.â
âNot for now, you have to believe me! Uncle, I have a question I want to ask you!â
âAsk!â
âIf I was the one in the operating room today, would you, like Chu Liyuan, choose to save the adult without any hesitation?â
âThatâs always been my only choice!â Chu Liyuan said with great seriousness.
Chu Liyuan loved the children, loved Granny and Grandpa! But the one he loved the most in his heart would always be Jian Jian.
