Chapter 147: The Two in their own World in the Hospital (1/2)
When Lei Yin woke up, he found himself lying on a hospital bed.
Looking at Naoko lying her head on his bed, asleep, his heart was filled with a deep sense of love and affection.
This fellow must have stayed up all night and stayed here for me.
He tried to sit up, but felt his limbs were weak, he knew that it was the side effect from blood lost.
Forcing himself to sit up, Naoko suddenly woke up.
“Lei, you’re awake.” Naoko said with surprise. Although the doctor had said that he only lost blood, and so long as he gets a good rest he’ll be fine, but she still couldn’t be at ease, however, now that she saw him wake up, her heart settled down a bit.
“I’m sorry to wake you up.”
“I’m going to call the doctor.” Naoko ran out in a hurry.
After running through the check up process, the 30-year-old doctor told Naoko: “The patient has recovered, there are no symptoms of inflammation in his wounds, as long as he stays here and rest for a few days, he’ll be able to leave.”
“Thank you doctor.” Naoko gratefully bowed to him.
“Your younger brother really is fortunate to have you as his elder sister. Please rest assured Hase-san, I’ll certainly do my best to take good care of your younger brother.” The young doctor’s also showed that he was very serious.
Younger brother? Naoko looked at the young doctor a little puzzled.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you doctor. Right, I almost forgot to introduce you, she’s my fiancée, not my elder sister.” Lei Yin said with a false smile.
“No, I’m sorry. If there’s nothing else, I have other works to do. There are also many patients waiting for me outside. So I’ll have to take my leave first.” The doctor, who had reached a marriageable age, felt devastated as he hurriedly ran out of the hospital ward.
Lei Yin revealed his middle finger towards his back.
“Lei are you hungry? I’ll come back and buy you something to eat, okay?” Naoko said as she wrung the towel, then gently wiping his face.
“No need, while hospital food doesn’t taste good, but asking you to buy it would cause too much trouble. I’m not hungry, so just sit down and accompany me.
Naoko then put down the towel, and sat at the bedside.
“Does your wound hurt?” Looking at his gauze, Naoko asked in a soft tone.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Lei Yin said, as he stroked her face.
Naoko didn’t say anything, and just held down his right hand tightly pressing it on her face, tears then flowed down slowly.
If it was all right, she would rather be the one to get hurt.
She really didn’t know how much she treasured this man who had protected her with his own life on the line.
“Lei….” Other than constantly repeating his name, she couldn’t say anything, while tears brazenly rolled down her face like a flood.
Not knowing how to comfort her, Lei Yin hugged her tightly in his arms. His strength was nothing like a bleeding patient.
Due to not resting for a whole night, it was certain that she would have wild mood swings. A few minutes later, Naoko finally couldn’t resist any longer, and fell asleep on Lei Yin’s arms, her face was still wet from her tears.
Lei Yin could only move his right hand, and after putting some effort, he was able to put Naoko’s whole body on the bed with great difficulty.
Then after putting half of the bed sheet on top of her, Lei Yin looked at her sleeping tranquilly, then smiled contentedly.
Sitting up on the bed, Lei Yin unconsciously recalled the battle last night.
Disinclined to think about the fight against the monster again, although compared to the monster his internal force was too far off, but if not for his injury and bleeding unceasingly, the chances of him winning were very high.
But what Lei Yin had really care about was that nothing happens to Naoko.
At the time that the monster flew, Lei Yin was already in the driver’s seat, while Naoko was just about to board the car.
When the monster had suddenly threw itself towards Naoko, while the car happened to be in his way. And without enough time for him to rescue her, without knowing why, he suddenly used that power unconsciously. Like last time, the time around him seemed to suddenly slow down. He then jumped towards Naoko hugging her around his arms taking the claw instead of her, which had resulted in the wound on his left shoulder.
The important point was, even though he had used that power again, his body wasn’t scrapped.
Perhaps, after surviving the previous disaster, there were changes that quietly took place that he himself didn’t even know.
—
After knocking on the door, Naoko opened the door to the hospital ward.
Apart from Lei Yin, she saw another man in the room. They looked like they were talking to each other.
In order to not to affect their conversation, Naoko gently place the meal on the table.
Seeing Maeda look at her, she hastily nodded to him.
“Masashi, this is?” It was the first time Ryoutaro Maeda saw Naoko.
“She was my high school teacher in the past, but now she’s my fiancée.” Lei Yin said with a smile.
“What?” Even though Maeda was usually calm, but hearing this he still couldn’t help but cry out aloud.
Naoko didn’t think that Lei Yin would tell a bystander about them like this, so she was suddenly both happy and embarrassed, at the same time.
When Naoko had arrived at Lei Yin’s bedside, he said: “Do you know who this guys is?”
Naoko shook her head.
“He’s my mother’s husband, that is, your father-in-law.”
“What?” Naoko said aloud.
“Uncle, please forgive me, I just didn’t know.” Naoko reacted quickly, and bowed towards him.
“Being called uncle when you’re not even 40 years old, you must have mixed feeling, right?” Lei Yin didn’t miss the chance to ridicule him.
“You guys always surprise me.” Maeda said with a wry smile.
“Uncle, you wait, I’ll go get you some tea. Right, have you eaten yet? I just bought some food from the restaurant outside, eat with us. Or we could also eat outside.” In order to give a good impression on Lei’s family, Naoko rushed to greet Lei’s stepfather.
“Fool, don’t be so nervous. Although this guy is my stepfather, he’s also my friend. Rest assured, even if he’s opposed to us, in the future I’ll still marry you.” Lei Yin took her hand and said with a smile.
“Lei….” Naoko was both embarrassed and nervous.
“Well, never mind about this guy. He already had dinner at home, so let’s just eat together.”
