Chapter 258 - 256. I Am Sorry I (1/2)
Third-person POV
Meiyun was sitting on her bed while leaning on the headboard of the bed. She carefully munched the food that Di Shang patiently fed her spoon by spoon. He watched her closely and with a cup of water beside him in case Meiyun choked on her food.
Previously, Naran was so excited and going to visit Meiyun after hearing the news that she woke up but as soon as Naran stood up, she collapsed from overstress. Apparently, Naran pushed herself too much in taking care of Meiyun plus Di Shang who insisted on staying beside Meiyun and always forget to eat his own meal because he was too focused on looking over Meiyun.
At first, Meiyun wanted to see Naran's condition in fear that Naran hit her head or any of her vital spots when she fell, but Di Shang prevented her to do so because of her own fragile body.
So they called for another physician to examine Naran and it turns out as what they expected, she collapsed from overworking herself. She only needed to rest and eat more nutritional food to gain back her usual strength.
”Delicious?” Di Shang asked while scooping another spoon of rice congee.
Di Shang's voice brought Meiyun back from her daze. She turned her head towards him and smiled softly.
”En, do you want to have a taste?” Meiyun offered by pointing her chin at the congee bowl in Di Shang's hand.
”No need. You have to eat this whole portion or else you won't get better.” Di Shang positioned the spoon full of congee in it in front of Meiyun's lips.
”Aiya~ One spoon doesn't make any difference la~ If you want to eat then just eat it.” Meiyun insisted but Di Shang lightly pressed the spoon on her lips.
”Eat, I have my own meal.” Di Shang ignored Meiyun's glare.
After the bowl was empty, Di Shang called the servants to take away the dirty dishes and ordered them to call the physician to do an annual check-up on Meiyun. Although Meiyun was happy and touched that Di Shang cared for her so much, she couldn't help but sigh at his over-protectiveness.
Before Meiyun could even ask to take a breather outdoor, Di Shang quickly cut her off and told her to sleep. She wanted to scream out that her spine was so sore that it felt like it disappeared because she was laying down for too long. However, after seeing the worried expression on Di Shang's face, Meiyun shut her lips and became obedient as a puppy.
Physician Tu came into the room while carrying his usual medical box in his hand. Meiyun smiled at the doctor and nodded her head as a greeting and gratitude for him coming here 3 times every single day just to do an examination on her. Physician Tu politely greeted Meiyun and Di Shang back with a bow.
He sat on a stool beside the bed and did a quick check on Meiyun's pulse. He glanced at Meiyun and saw her looking at him with an unfathomable smile on her lips. Physician Tu's heart skipped a beat as he knew exactly what Meiyun was telling him by the gaze alone.
Di Shang who was watching from the side furrowed his brows in puzzlement by the sight in front of him. It wasn't a jealousy towards Physician Tu because he was being stared by Meiyun, but it was because their gaze that they gave each other, it seemed like Physician Tu understood Meiyun much more than him, Meiyun's husband.
It was true and wasn't a secret anymore that Meiyun was very secretive about herself and always blamed herself for what happened to the people close to her. And that was one of the reasons why Di Shang hadn't told Meiyun about the death of their infant and Hong er's disappearance.
”Is there something wrong, Physician Tu?” Di Shang asked with an audible anxiety in his voice.
Physician Tu glanced at Di Shang and back to Meiyun. Meiyun's expression didn't change at all meant that she didn't care if Physician Tu wanted to say it or not. Seeing that both of them communicating with their eyes again, Di Shang became anxious because he felt like a stranger in that room and from the looks of it, he guessed that it probably some secrets that they hid from him.
