Chapter 998 - I’ve Only Slept With You (1/2)

Bai Qi listened to doctor Zhou’s orderly arrangements over the phone. It could be seen that taking care of his wife and children was doctor Zhou’s daily routine.

Bai Qi had once heard that doctor Zhou’s wife, Jian Han, was his university classmate. The two of them had been in love for a whole ten years. After going through many, many hardships, they finally were able to get married. Doctor Zhou and his wife were very in love. He doted on his wife without restraint, any woman would be envious and jealous.

Bai Qi raised her head to look at doctor Zhou in front of her. She had interacted with many men, but most of them were like Zhou Yao or her big brother, Leng Hao. It was rare for her to see someone as gentle as doctor Zhou.

The corners of her mouth curled up as she said softly, “Doctor Zhou, your wife must be very happy.”

Zhou Dayuan put away his phone. He looked at Zhou Yao, who stood outside the door and smiled. “Why, Mrs. Zhou, aren’t you happy?”

Happy?

Bai Qi smiled blankly and shook her head. “I don’t know.”

“Mrs. Zhou, every man loves differently. Whether you’re happy or not, you’ll know when you ask your heart.”

“Mmm,” Bai Qi nodded. “Doctor Zhou, I forgot to thank you. Sileng was indebted to you at birth.”

“There’s no need to thank me. If you want to thank, thank General Zhou. Sileng was born prematurely at eight and a half months. When I picked him up on the island, I felt his weak pause. As a doctor, with Sileng’s condition at that time, it was really difficult for him to survive. Therefore, when I returned to T City, I suggested that General Zhou let me take him home for a period of time and let me take care of him personally. However, General Zhou didn’t agree.”

“Sileng was really brought up by General Zhou. Before Sileng was one year old, Zhou Yao was the one who held him in his arms. Ah, Mrs. Zhou, you haven’t seen it with your own eyes. You might not be able to imagine the scene of General Zhou taking care of the child. His was very clumsy. When he held Sileng for the first time, he was as stiff as a rock. He brewed milk powder for Sileng, changed her diapers, and bathed him. I personally watched General Zhou struggle as a father.”

“Actually, the most difficult time is when Sileng got sick. The hospital has issued a few critical illness notices. Sileng was too young. Every time he receives an IV drip, he needs to shave off his newly grown hair and search for blood vessels on his head. Sileng would cry incessantly when he felt pain. At that time, General Zhou tightly held one of Sileng’s small hands. Most of the time, he doesn’t have any expression or spoke, but everyone could see his reddened eyes.”

“For half a year, General Zhou and Sileng spent their time in the hospital ward. Although there was sunlight in the ward, they had already spent an entire winter there. In the world where they were dependent on each other, their world was colorless.”

Zhou Dayuan frowned as he mentioned the past.

Bai Qi felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly by a large palm. She was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe. How much had her little Silleng suffered?

And that man, she had always known how clumsy he was. He would throw a tantrum and kick things if things didn’t go his way. When she was with him, she did not hear him say many sweet words. He would always yell. He did not have the patience and had a bad temper, she really couldn’t imagine how he played the role of a… mother.

How did they survive all those years without her?
