Translator: 549690339
Song Zhizhi followed Yan Jin into the hospital.
The hospital was a standalone building, quite large.
Walking beside Yan Jin, Song Zhizhi could hear their footfalls resonating in the quiet hospital.
In that moment, she could even feel her heartbeat trembling with each sound.
She didn’t ask Yan Jin about Ji Baijian’s condition.
And Yan Jin did not tell her.
She simply followed Yan Jin until they finally arrived at Ji Baijian’s ward.
The door to the room opened.
Ji Baijian was lying on a large hospital bed surrounded by numerous startling medical devices.
Ji Baijian was wearing an oxygen mask, appearing incredibly frail as he lay there.
Song Zhizhi kept telling herself that Ji Baijian would be okay, that he had not had another heart attack, that everything he had done was simply a façade for his hidden intentions. But the sight of Ji Baijian in this state still deeply terrified her.
In that moment, she was too scared to get any closer, fearing the harsh realities that laid bare in front of her.
She clenched her lips tightly together.
Yan Jin looked at Song Zhizhi’s expression but still didn’t say anything, turning and abruptly leaving the room instead.
After all, for young people, a small parting heightens the pleasure of reunion.
They might do something inappropriate for older eyes to witness, which could be quite embarrassing for him.
Song Zhizhi didn’t even notice Yan Jin’s departure.
She summoned all her courage before stepping into the room, standing in front of Ji Baijian.
Ji Baijian had his eyes closed. She looked at the heart rate monitor beside him, beeping persistently.
She started to speak, “Ji Baijian.”
Ji Baijian gave no response.
“Ji Baijian, I’m back,” Song Zhizhi said.
Ji Baijian’s eyebrows seemed to move a little.
She stood there nervously watching him.
Watching him open his eyes.
The same familiar eyes, so deep that no one could fully comprehend what he was thinking.
When he looked at her, the corners of his mouth suddenly tugged up in a smile.
Smiling, he removed the oxygen mask from his mouth.
Song Zhizhi watched his actions.
Watched him sit up from the hospital bed.
She just kept staring at him, watching his every move without uttering a single word.
“My lady. Your husband is in good health,” Ji Baijian said, enunciating each word carefully.
Song Zhizhi still stood still, frozen.
Ji Baijian’s eyebrows furrowed, “My lady?”
“Ji Baijian!” Song Zhizhi suddenly shouted.
Ji Baijian paused for a moment.
“Why are you pretending to be on your deathbed if you’re totally fine!” Song Zhizhi was furious.
She was almost scared to death seeing Ji Baijian looking so weak just now!
Ji Baijian looked at his wife and her sudden outburst of anger.
All he wanted to do was tease her a little.
God knows how much he wanted to hold her in his arms right now.
He grinned.
“Why are you laughing?” Song Zhizhi became even angrier.
Was he unaware of how worried she had been?
No matter how confident she was in her guess that Ji Baijian would not die, until she saw him in good health, she could not fully relax. And yet, he had the audacity to scare her like this.
Given her understanding of Ji Baijian, she knew that the moment she appeared at the door of his ward he must have been aware!
She became angrier as she thought about it.
Song Zhizhi glared at Ji Baijian, who looked quite pleased with himself.
Ji Baijian reached out to pull her towards him.
Song Zhizhi pulled away, upset over his manner.
Ji Baijian tried to pull her towards him again.
Song Zhizhi moved even further away.
“My lady,” Ji Baijian said, his expression serious.
Song Zhizhi kept glaring at him.
“Your husband does not wish to resort to force.”
Song Zhizhi snorted, “I dare you to try!”
In the second of her stunned silence,
Ji Baijian suddenly reached out, pulling Song Zhizhi back into his arms with one swift movement.
Song Zhizhi was startled.
Stunned.
Ji Baijian really was healthy!
Although she was upset about Ji Baijian’s rough actions, at this moment, she did feel a sense of relief.
It seemed like she was destined to be wrapped around Ji Baijian’s finger for the rest of her life.
The two of them stood there, gazing at each other.
Yan Jin had come back into the ward because Yin Qin had sent a message saying he would be coming over. He had planned to inform Ji Baijian – but the moment he walked in, he witnessed a scene that he had no words to describe.
He left the room immediately, kindly closing the door behind him. He also sent a reply to Yin Qin: “Do not disturb tonight.”
Yin Qin had been sitting in his car when he saw the four-word message on his phone, his face displaying utter confusion.
What did “Do not disturb tonight” mean?!
Was Ji Baijian dying?!
That couldn’t be right.
If he was dying, he should be there to keep a vigil, no, to mourn him!
Holy crap.
He’s really dark inside.
Does he really want Ji Baijian to die?
Alright then.
He’s just bored out of his skull.
If tonight is not suitable, then he simply won’t go.
He considered for a while.
He felt that this period has been incredibly dull.
At a time of profound despair, nothing else could pass the time except alcohol.
He picked up his phone, “Dictionary, the old place tonight, can you come?”
“Sure.”
The other side never initiates anything, but never refuses either.
Having such a drinking buddy isn’t too bad.
In the hospital room.
“Ji Baijian, let go of me!”
“No.”
“Ji Baijian!”
“Madam, don’t you know that your husband misses you?” said Ji Baijian.
His voice was magnetic and melodic.
Zhizhi’s heartbeat became irregular again.
It was no good to suddenly pour out such heartfelt affection when they were on the edge of conflict. It wasn’t good for her heart.
“Ji Baijian, let go of me.” Song Zhizhi’s voice was softer.
Clearly more docile now.
Ji Baijian released her but did not let her leave. He laid down next to Song Zhizhi and held her in his arms.
Song Zhizhi didn’t resist.
It had been a while since they had seen each other, a fortnight, a month?!
Anyways, it had been a long time.
The truth is, Song Zhizhi missed Ji Baijian too.
She really did.
But she didn’t say it.
Because Ji Baijian had deceived her!
In the relatively quiet room, Ji Baijian said, “Madam, you’ve had a tough journey.”
Song Zhizhi didn’t respond.
“After this time, don’t stay so far away from your husband,” said Ji Baijian. At that moment, he didn’t ask for her opinion.
Zhizhi turned to face him, “Why did you fake being sick?”
Ji Baijian chuckled, “To have a reasonable excuse to refuse a business deal.”
“Couldn’t you have told me in advance?!” Song Zhizhi protested.
Even if it was to keep others in the dark, he couldn’t keep her in the dark from beginning to end.
The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt.
Looking at her expression, Ji Baijian said, “Didn’t you guess it already?!”
“You took me for granted, didn’t you?!” Song Zhizhi gritted her teeth.
“Madam, I could calculate the whole world but I would never calculate you.” Ji Baijian’s hand, his long fingers on her cheek, his tone was gentle and soft, he said, “Of course, if I had told you, would you have rushed back here so hastily?”
“Ji Baijian, and you still say you haven’t taken me for granted!” Song Zhizhi accused.
Ji Baijian broke into a smile.
His smile was truly charming.
In that moment, Song Zhizhi was really angry.
Her heart had gone through so much and he just sat there looking amused.
Seeing him smiling like the world was full of warmth and brightness just made her even more enraged.
She looked down and bit Ji Baijian’s neck hard.
Ji Baijian winced in pain but didn’t push her away.
Song Zhizhi didn’t bite very hard.
She just left a teeth mark.
She lifted her head to look at Ji Baijian, “This is a lesson.”
Her intent was, if you ever scheme against me again, you’re done for.
“Your husband will heed your advice.”
Song Zhizhi slid out of Ji Baijian’s embrace.
Ji Baijian watched her leave, a clear look of reluctance in his eyes.
Song Zhizhi said, “A patient should act like a patient. Go to sleep!”
Ji Baijian was speechless!
Was he digging his own grave?!
Song Zhizhi looked serious, she said, “Tonight, I will sleep in the bed next to you.”
Saying so, she didn’t care about Ji Baijian’s emotions and turned to enter the bathroom in the room.
After so much hassle, Song Zhizhi felt dirty. After she scrubbed herself clean, she realised she had no change of clothes.
She came out in a towel.
Ji Baijian was lying on the bed, watching her elegantly.
“Do you have clean clothes? All my luggage is in Brother Ziming’s car.” Now, who knows where that car might be?!
“Your husband thinks that not wearing anything would work too.” Ji Baijian said, a suggestive look on his face.
Song Zhizhi laughed, a tempting and seductive laugh. Her long, wet hair added to her allure, it caused a change in Ji Baijian’s gaze.
She said, “That’s fine if you don’t have any, I’ll ask Dr. Yan if he has any patient clothes.”
