Chapter 405: High-Risk Occupation
s. We finally decided to hire someone, but then he simply refused because one thing wasn't right. We had to start the whole process again! Does he think qualified candidates are just everywhere He's c...He took care of the children's arrangements, so he could rest assured to accompany her in the hospital. 。That evening, by coincidence, her mother Cheng Zhimin sent a video call, wanting to see the children. Seeing his background was in a hospital, she was startled:
"Why are you in the hospital What happened"
"It's nothing, Tinglan fell and... " 。I spoke in a low voice by the window so as not to wake her. 。"Oh, so you're in the hospital What about the children" Cheng Zhimín's first instinctive reaction was to worry about whether someone had picked up and dropped off the children, and whether they were being taken care of. 。Zhuo Yuyan couldn't help but feel a little helpless and emphasized, "Mom, Tinglan is in the hospital. Shouldn't you be more concerned about her first" Cheng Zhimin was taken aback. Although she knew this was the right thing to do, she was emotionally biased. Her subconscious first reaction was whether her grandchildren had someone to look after them, so they wouldn't be wronged. 。"I'm sorry, how bad is Tinglan's fall" It's not that I don't care at all, it's just that there's a priority order. 。Zuo Yu'an was somewhat annoyed by insincere greetings, even those from his own mother. 。Looking at Tinglan who was still fast asleep on the bed, his heart ached a little. 。She had no parents, and no other relatives to turn to. She seemed to have nowhere to belong, isolated in the world. 。Although she had never uttered a word of self-pity about it, he knew that deep down, she yearned for this kind of familial connection. 。No matter how much a person grows up and matures, there will always be a part of them that belongs to their parents. Even if they have a distant relationship with their parents, it is still very difficult to truly become indifferent. 。So hearing his mother's indifference towards Tinglan, he felt even more pity for her. He hung up the phone, wanting to hold her in his arms and tell her that from now on, she had him and their child. Her life was already blossoming with flowers and bearing fruit, becoming lush and vibrant, no longer alone. 。But afraid of waking her, I could only continue to gently hold her hand and sit. 。In the middle of the night, after she finished her IV drip, I was also getting tired and fell asleep leaning against her hospital bed. 。
Shu Tinglan slept exceptionally well that night. Although she felt slightly dizzy when she woke up and moved, as long as she kept still, the dizziness disappeared, and she no longer felt nauseous. The bump on her forehead only ached faintly, and overall, she was much better. 。
Zuo Yu'an woke up at the same time as her, staring silently at her, observing her reaction. Seeing that she no longer had a painful expression, the worry he had carried all night eased slightly. 。
“I worried you.” 。Shū Tínglàn remembered his face when he rushed to the law firm, it must have scared him. 。Zhu Yu'an replied coldly: "I didn't expect that the legal profession is now a high-risk industry." 。Shu Tinglan, from now on, tell me about any dangers all at once, so I can mentally prepare myself. Otherwise, sooner or later you'll scare me to death. 。I haven't met "
" yet, how do I know 。But which industry doesn't have high risks You programmers even have the risk of sudden death, right 。"
He will still retort, it seems his brain is intact." 。Zuo Yu'an mocked 。
My head is still aching. 。Her posture was stiff, like she had a crick in her neck, completely motionless, except for her bright eyes that followed Zhu Yu'an as he turned. 。 Zhuo Yu'an felt both heartache and amusement. "Are you thirsty Want some water"She wanted to shake her head and say she wasn't thirsty, but as soon as she moved her head, she felt dizzy again. She could only continue to maintain her stiff posture."Feed me..." 。She pouted, anyway there was no one in the ward. 。。Shù Tīnglàn also suddenly thought of that night, at the bar in his home, pouring water into her mouth. His face turned red, his heart beat faster, and his head hurt even more. 。"Are you still human, I have a concussion" 。Zhuo Yu'an gently lowered her bed a little and put a cushion behind her back so she could lie at an angle. 。He poured some water down his own throat, then leaned over her, gently squeezing her face and forcing her lips to part slightly. 。Shu Tinglan widened her eyes. He wouldn't really be so perverse as to feed her water like this, would he She was a patient, but she unconsciously closed her eyes nonetheless, waiting for the water to enter her mouth. 。The result waited for a while, only to be greeted by a warm lip that gently touched her lips like a dragonfly's kiss. Then a husky voice came: "I'm going to get a straw from the nurse." 。It's not that crazy, it's not about hygiene. After all, they've kissed everything they should and shouldn't have, and they've even had closer relationships. It's just that she's a patient now, so this isn't appropriate. 。Shu Tinglan breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a tinge of loss. She really liked the warmth and moisture of his lips just now. 。
Ahem, now I'm a concussion patient, don't overthink things. 。He brought the straw and poured another cup of warm water for her. She sipped it through the straw, little by little, and felt much better. 。Thank you, husband. 。“Before, she only called him 'husband' when they were intimate. Now, she calls him that repeatedly, as if it has become second nature. She feels good about it.” 。Zhuo Yu'an was stunned. Being called "husband" felt so good. He couldn't help but take the straw out of her mouth and kiss her. What started as a light, fleeting kiss turned into something intense and passionate. He wanted more, but he held back, considering her injuries. The restraint was torturous. 。
Shutinglan's head was spinning, but she didn't want to be apart from him. 。Then, there was a knock at the door, "knock, knock, knock." Before they could even answer, the door swung open. 。...Unexpectedly, the two people on the bed were kissing at this moment, so they stopped in their tracks. 。Zuo Yu'an turned around and saw his mother, who was supposed to be in Beijing, standing at the door of the ward. The nanny beside her also blushed as she looked at them. 。Hit squarely, Shu Tinglan felt shame wash over him, mortified to his core. He desperately wanted to hide under the covers, but he dared not move, so he could only stiffen himself half-reclining in that awkward position. 。"How did you get here" Zhu Yunan seemed unfazed, glancing at his own mother. 。"Didn't you say Tinglan was injured I had my aunt stew a pot of chicken soup all night and took the earliest flight over. The soup is still hot, just pour it out and feed it to Tinglan." 。Cheng Zhimin's words on the scene sounded good, Shu Tinglan felt a touch of emotion, and unexpectedly, in her lifetime, she could actually drink the chicken soup sent by Cheng Zhimin. Whether it was true or false, at least on the surface they had achieved harmony. 。Zuo Yu'an took the chicken soup. Although he knew deep down that his mother had flown to Senzhou specially because she was worried about them being hospitalized and the children having no one to look after them, the fact that she sent him chicken soup as soon as she got off the plane showed her care. His attitude improved a little. 。Like Tinglan, he didn't require a deep emotional connection. Maintaining a surface level of harmony and treating each other with respect was enough. After all, his wife deserved to be cherished by him. 。and woke up very early. When he walked out of his room, he saw that Lin's parents were already up and dressed for going out.Lin Dad was wearing a leather jacket and his hair was styled very nicely. Li...
