Qiao Wanwan hurriedly got up and stepped back, looking at him helplessly.

Zhan Jingting was slightly taken aback, then slowly curved his lips into a smile that could make anyone fall in love. "Madam Zhan, you don't need to sneak around if you want to kiss me."

Qiao Wanwan wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground. "Don't misunderstand! I... I just had a fit!"

"Your attempt to cover it up seems very deliberate."

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

"If you can still laugh at me here, then everything's alright. I'm leaving now."

"Wanwan," Zhan Jingting called out to her hurriedly, "I feel dizzy."

"Really?" Qiao Wanwan immediately pressed the call button. "Let the doctor come and examine me!"

The doctor examined the patient, inquired about the situation, and informed her that it was a reaction to a concussion and that there was nothing seriously wrong.

Qiao Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief and forgot about her earlier departure.

Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?

I'm not hungry.

Qiao Wanwan sat on a chair next to the hospital bed to rest.

"Madam Zhan."

"Hmm?" Qiao Wanwan herself didn't realize how smoothly she responded. "What's wrong?"

"Is a phone more fun than me?"

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

"I have important business to attend to."

"What important matter is it?"

"It will be ready soon."

After a while, Qiao Wanwan put down her phone, propped her elbows on the hospital bed, and looked at him with her hands supporting her chin. "Do you know how dangerous it was today? Even for the sake of the child, you shouldn't have taken such a risk."

A shadow of gloom flashed in the man's dark, deep eyes. "It's not because of the child, it's because you are my wife. I will protect you no matter what."

Qiao Wanwan didn't completely believe what he said. No matter what, she was sure that part of it was for the sake of the child, but she was still very touched.

"Zhan Jingting, thank you."

"Wanwan, I will protect you for the rest of my life." The man gazed deeply at her, "Because we are destined to be entangled for a lifetime."

Qiao Wanwan's heart raced, and she felt a little lost.

The man raised his hand, placed it on the back of her head, and gently pressed it down.

Qiao Wanwan swallowed nervously. She knew he wanted her to kiss him, and she knew she should push him away, but her hands wouldn't obey her.

As the handsome face loomed larger before her, Qiao Wanwan slowly closed her eyes.

Just as the two were about to kiss, the door to the ward was suddenly opened, and Jiang Dong's voice came through, "Qiao Xiao... I'm sorry, please continue!"

The ambiguous atmosphere in the air vanished instantly. Qiao Wanwan quickly straightened up and coughed awkwardly, "What is it?"

Jiang Dong nervously swallowed. "Your takeout is here."

"So fast?" Qiao Wanwan got up to take it. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Jiang Dong felt a sharp gaze shooting at him from the hospital bed, and he was so frightened that he shuddered and hurriedly closed the door and ran away.

Qiao Wanwan opened the takeout bag, and the aroma of crayfish wafted out, making her mouth water.

Zhan Jingting looked gloomy, even contemplating transferring Jiang Dong to Africa. Seeing Qiao Wanwan enjoying her meal so much, he became even more annoyed. "Is it really that delicious?"

"Of course it's delicious. This place is famous for its crayfish, and it just so happens to be near this hospital. It would be a shame not to try it."

"And what about me?"

Didn't you say you weren't hungry?

Zhan Jingting: "......"

After finishing a large portion of crayfish, Qiao Wanwan was satisfied. "Zhan Jingting, you should go to sleep now. I'll sleep here with you. Call me if you need anything."

"The bed in the next rest room is more comfortable. You can sleep there. I'll call the doctor if I need anything."

"Alright, I'll be going then."

"Good night."

"Uh-huh!"

The rest room had everything she needed. After washing up, Qiao Wanwan lay down on the bed.

Just as Zhan Jingting said, the bed was quite comfortable.

But Qiao Wanwan wasn't sleepy at all. Recalling what happened today, she still felt lingering fear.

She was on guard, but who would have thought that the Gu family would dare to deal with her so openly?

If Zhan Jingting hadn't been there today, she would have definitely suffered a loss.

It's not a big deal if she gets injured herself, but if something happens to the baby in her womb, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Qiao Wanwan gently stroked her belly. "Little baby, I'm sorry, Mommy miscalculated today. I'll definitely be more careful to protect you from now on. Don't be afraid..."

......

Zhan Jingting stayed in the hospital for three days before he was finally discharged.

Jiang Dong entered the ward and reported, "Master Zhan, Gu Yanfeng didn't come forward himself, so we can't get any substantial evidence."

The man, with his long, slender hands buttoning his shirt, said calmly, "There's no need to be so open about it if there's no evidence."

Jiang Dong nodded. "I understand. I'll make the arrangements right away."

Qiao Wanwan walked in. "Jiang Dong, what are your arrangements?"

"It's nothing, just work-related," Jiang Dong asked. "Madam, did you get the medicine?"

"Got it, you can go now."

"good."

Back at the villa, Zhan Jingting went to his study to work.

Qiao Wanwan was about to take a nap when she suddenly received a phone call.

"What did you say? I'm coming right now!"

Qiao Wanwan rushed to the hospital and looked at the girl on the hospital bed with a ventilator. "How could my sister's condition suddenly worsen?"

"Miss Qiao, the blood bank was short of blood today, and we were unable to transfuse blood in time. Fortunately, the rescue was timely, and she is no longer in danger of death."

Qiao Wanwan nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, doctor."
