Chapter 242 - 242: Old Injury (Part 1) (1/2)
White walls welcomed him as his eyelids flew open. Letting out a rasp groan, Ethan tried to sit up and remove the IV pierced on the back of his hand.
”Ah, wait, wait, wait!” Ethan's doctor, Song Zihao entered just in time to check up on his patient.
Doctor Song Zihao is Song Mo Kun's cousin, and is one of Ethan's trusted friends.
At this moment, Ethan is confined at the hospital owned by the Song family, and most of the medical professionals here are surnamed Song.
Seeing the hospital-hating man about to rip his IV, Doctor Song opted to smack this stubborn one unconscious again. ”What the hell, man?! Do you wanna die, huh?!”
Ethan ignored his good friend's exaggeration.
”If you remove those, I'm telling your wife.”
”She knows?” He asked, obediently placing his hands on his lap.
”Of course she knows!” Doctor Song rolled his eyes, saying the most obvious answer to his question. ”She's the first one your secretary called, but her phone was busy. Fortunately, Yifei was with her.”
”What happened to me?”
”Eh, your old injury was acting up again. Have you been taking your medications? Like I strictly told you to do?” Doctor Song narrowed his eyes, giving him a suspicious look.
”En.”
”You did not missed one?”
”En.”
”Good. So the sleep deprivation and heat exhaustion triggered it. Also, you were dehydrated.” Doctor Song clicked his tongue, letting out an exasperate sigh.
”You were out for about 6 hours, and according to Lian, you hadn't eaten anything and only had coffee for breakfast.” Doctor Song grumbled, reading Ethan's health results on the clipboard. ”For petty reasons, you didn't leave your office to take a break or eat lunch...”
”Are you trying to kill yourself, Ethan? I though your bad habits finally cease when your fiancée came around...”
Ethan's eyes snapped at him with a serious glare. ”Don't tell her about my old injury.”
”Eh? Why?”
”You know why.”
”Ehm...about that, hehe...”
If he could, Ethan would've grabbed Song Zihao by the collar and strangled him.
”Yeah, uh...we kinda had this small talk...and I kinda told her everything...”
”Why would you tell her? I thought I told you not to let anyone know?” Ethan pinched the bridge of his nose.
”Bro, are you really asking me this? Your wife is scary, ok? My gut was screaming at me not to lie! Heck, I can lie to the parents, but I can't lie to the wife!”
”That look she was giving...it's like I'm being threatened!”
Ethan did not scolded his friend any further. His reasonings were valid, really valid that he almost pitied him.
”She was here looking after you as soon as she heard what happened, you know.” Song Zihao removed the empty saline. Now that he's awake, he won't be needing it anymore so he heed to his wish and removed the IV.
Knowing him, he hates staying too long in the hospital.
Lucky bastard. Doctor Song really wanted to pummel this guy to the ground if he wasn't a doctor, and him, his patient.
How is it that this cold-hearted, emotionless man, successfully snatched a woman like Lillie Bai?
Heck, this guy's EQ is so low that even Lillie Bai misunderstood his ”heartfelt” actions.
