Cheng Lang could not understand himself. Was his feelings for Xing Shu really only physical attraction? Why didn’t he feel that way? He seemed to want Xing Shu to be safe and healthy. He only felt at ease when he saw her safe and sound. Even though Xing Shu was glaring at him angrily, he still felt happy. What kind of feeling was this? He did not understand. He did not get it.
After a while, someone brought food over. Cheng Lang fed Xing Shu a few mouthfuls before his cell phone rang. It was Old Master Cheng. “Cheng Lang, why aren’t you home?
The moment Cheng Lang answered the call, Xing Shu leaned back She wanted to avoid the content of their conversation. However, Cheng Lang pinched her chin and stared at her deeply and intensely. He answered Old Master Cheng’s question, “In the hospital.”
Old Master Cheng said, “In the hospital? Are you unwell? I’ll get someone to take care of you.”
Cheng Lang replied, “No, I’m accompanying…” Before he could finish speaking, Xing Shu leaned over and covered his lips. Her eyelashes trembled nervously, and Cheng Lang’s eyes were smiling. As he slowly deepened the kiss, he replied to Old Master Cheng, “It’s fine. It’s a small problem. I’ll be there soon.”
Old Master Cheng said, “Alright. You have to pay attention to small ailments. You’re busy with work all year round and don’t even pay attention to your health, let alone your marriage. When you get married and have a wife, then I don’t have to chase after you every day to show my concern. Hurry back after your checkup. Coincidentally, your Uncle Jin is also here. Let’s discuss the marriage of you and Jin Yue. Don’t let them wait too long.”
“Okay.” Cheng Lang hung up and looked at Xing Shu. “I’ll get someone to take care of you.” He wanted to turn around and leave. But, someone grabbed the corner of his shirt. Xing Shu looked up at him. After a long time, she slowly let go and said, “No need. I’ll go back after the infusion.”
“Stay in the hospital for two days and recuperate.” Cheng Lang looked at the corner of his shirt that was crumpled and softened his tone. “Or do you not want to be hospitalized?”
Xing Shu nodded. She really did not like the hospital. All these years, she had been alone every time she woke up in the hospital. The white walls and white bedsheets made her panic. Most importantly, she knew that Cheng Lang was leaving to return to the Cheng family and discuss his marriage to Jin Yue. How long could their relationship last? She was like a prisoner on death row, feeling the passage of time bit by bit.
