Chapter 144 Let bygones be bygones

Su Qingyan slowly returned to normal after an hour. He didn't even dare to think about what he had done. Zhou Cheng could finally take a break. He lay back on the bed tiredly and subconsciously clenched his swollen and painful left wrist.

When Su Chonglin returned to the ward, he saw that both of them were lying quietly receiving IV drips, and he felt very distressed.

"Dad, when are we going back to Mincheng? I had a gastroscopy this morning and the doctor said the bleeding has stopped." Su Qingyan asked him when he saw Su Chonglin come in.

"You can go back now. Everything has been arranged there."

Su Chonglin didn't say much. In fact, he had already found many expert professors in hand surgery, and they were all waiting for them to return to the hospital.

Soon, several ambulances roared from Donglan to Mincheng.

When he was about to reach the hospital, Su Qingyan looked at the familiar high-rise buildings that he had frequently visited recently and felt that he had lived in enough hospitals for the past few months.

After entering the hospital, because the doctor needed to re-examine Zhou Cheng's wrist, he was forced to separate from Zhou Cheng temporarily and go to his own VIP ward first.

The aunt at home was already waiting for him in the ward. All the daily necessities that he used were moved over, and he even packed up the perfume that he liked recently.

But Su Qingyan was still worried and couldn't muster up any interest, wondering what the current condition of Zhou Cheng's wrist was.

After a while, Su Chonglin also walked into the ward.

"Have you finished the examination, Zhou Cheng?" Su Qingyan was fidgeting on the hospital bed. When he saw Su Chonglin come in, he immediately stood up and asked him.

"Not yet." Su Chonglin came over and pressed his shoulders to let him sit back.

After the aunt left the room and closed the door, Su Qingyan finally had the opportunity to ask the questions that had been weighing on his mind for days.

"What have you been doing in Xinghai with the Jiang family recently? These two accidents were caused by things in Xinghai, right?"

"Handle the business in Mincheng well. Xinghai's affairs are not your business." Su Chonglin looked unhappy when he heard Su Qingyan mention Xinghai.

"Dad, the Jiang family uses all kinds of crooked methods. Don't follow them."

Su Chonglin saw Su Qingyan's rare seriousness, and it was the first time that he intuitively felt his growth.

"I know." Su Chonglin patted Su Qingyan's shoulder again.

"Then...be careful."

Seeing his attitude, Su Qingyan knew that he would not change his mind just because of a few words from her, so she had to give up.

About an hour later, Zhou Cheng finally returned to the ward, and Su Qingyan hurried to ask about the condition of his wrist.

As expected, I received a response of "It's okay, no big problem".

"Forget it. You said you were fine no matter what I asked you. I'll go ask the doctor later."

In fact, Zhou Cheng did not lie to him. Su Chonglin invited almost all the masters of hand surgery in the country. He was flattered to see the experts and professors, whose names he had only seen in papers before, studying his wrist together.

Back in Mincheng, although still hospitalized, it felt like home, and everyone felt much more at ease. Su Chonglin didn't tell Mingyun about their injuries. Now that the problem had been basically resolved, he didn't want his wife to worry and be sad anymore.

When the two of them were holding hands and preparing to go to sleep at night, Su Qingyan couldn't help but bring up the topic that neither of them could avoid forever.

"I think we should have a good talk."

"Shall we talk now?" Zhou Cheng looked at the clock on the wall. It was already past 10 o'clock.

"Let's talk now. Please forgive me. I don't want to hold it in any longer." Su Qingyan turned sideways and lay down, looking at Zhou Cheng.

"Isn't it too late? You should get more rest." Zhou Cheng reached out to tidy up the hair that was blocking Su Qingyan's eyes.

"I won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't tell you."

"Then... let's talk."

Seeing that Su Qingyan was so determined, Zhou Cheng had no choice but to let him do as he pleased, but he was also a little nervous, thinking that he might not be able to sleep after the conversation.

"Zhou Cheng, let me apologize to you first. The reason I started pursuing you was indeed because I had a disagreement with Jiang Er at that time. I wanted to get rid of him quickly, and I thought you were handsome, so I started pursuing you." Su Qingyan sat up and said solemnly.

Zhou Cheng nodded. He already knew all this, and he didn't want Su Qingyan to bring it up again.

"But after that, I swear I never went out to play around again. I have always been devoted to you."

As soon as Su Qingyan raised his right hand, Zhou Cheng pushed it back.

"I know."

"I used to be a mess, but now I've turned over a new leaf. Can you forgive me?"

"Forgive me." Zhou Cheng took his hand and kissed it.

"Can we turn the page now?"

"Turn the page."

"Then I have a request for you." Su Qingyan pinched Zhou Cheng's lips.

"You say." Zhou Cheng chuckled.

"Don't be so reserved in the future. If you have something to say, why don't you just say it directly?"

"I avoided you and distanced myself from you during those days because I was afraid that I would lose control of my emotions once I spoke and would start arguing with you. If you let me digest it for a few days, I won't be so impulsive." Zhou Cheng answered truthfully.

"Why do you want to digest it by yourself? Isn't this a matter for two people? Wouldn't it be faster if we solve it together?"

Zhou Cheng was silent for a while, then nodded in agreement.

"Zhou Cheng, I'm trapped by you for the rest of my life." Su Qingyan sighed.

"Then don't mention the word break up again in the future. If you dare to say it, I will beat you." Zhou Cheng said and slapped his butt a few times.

"Ouch! You're beating me!" Su Qingyan screamed exaggeratedly.

"What is our relationship now? Can it be considered domestic violence?" Zhou Cheng hugged Su Qingyan, who was ferocious.

"Let's get the certificate after we are discharged from the hospital?" Su Qingyan looked up at Zhou Cheng with sparkling eyes.

"Isn't this too hasty? I haven't proposed yet." Zhou Cheng was a little confused by his fast-forward speed.

"I'm proposing marriage, don't fight with me."

Su Qingyan thought about it and found that he was indeed a bit hasty. Zhou Cheng's parents didn't know about their son's situation yet. He had to go to Yingjiang first to take care of Zhou Cheng's family.

"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Cheng asked in confusion when he saw that he hadn't spoken for a long time.

"How do you want to deal with my father-in-law? I have to go to Yingjiang and marry you in a grand ceremony."

"Go to bed and think about it tomorrow. It's too late." Zhou Cheng looked at the clock again. It was already past 11 o'clock. He turned off the bedside lamp.

"We are really a pair of ill-fated mandarin ducks..." Su Qingyan hugged Zhou Cheng's arm again and curled up in his arms.

"If you have experienced all the bitterness in advance, there will only be sweetness in the future." Zhou Cheng hugged Su Qingyan tightly.

"Where should we hold our wedding? In China or abroad?" Su Qingyan raised her head and asked him again.

"How about you first think about how to redeem the person from your father-in-law?"

"Isn't that simple?" Su Qingyan snuggled into his arms again, cleared her throat, and continued, "This is one hundred million. Let your son marry into my family."

“Nonsense…”
