Chapter 61 At least you still have some sense of contractual obligation
When Sang Qian opened her eyes, she found herself lying in a hospital bed.
"Qianqian, you're awake?"
Jin Changyu, standing by the bedside, happily took her hand, then turned to the doctor standing beside the bed, "Doctor, my wife is awake."
Sang Qian was completely sobered up by his calling her "wife".
? ? ?
Who is his wife?
She pulled her hand away from his tight grip.
Jin Changyu glanced at his empty hand, a look of dejection flashing in his eyes, before silently stepping back from the bedside to give the doctor his place.
The doctor examined Sang Qian and asked her some questions. Then he said, "It's nothing serious. You're experiencing abdominal pain and dizziness because you're upset, haven't rested well, haven't eaten for a long time, and were suddenly stimulated, which caused you to feel anxious and upset. Observe here for an hour, and you can go home if everything is fine."
Hearing that the baby was alright, Sang Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, doctor."
"But you still need to pay more attention in the future. Pregnant women need to have regular rest, a reasonable diet, and maintain a good mood and mindset."
After the doctor finished speaking, he looked at Jin Changyu and said, "Especially the family members. Pregnant women are prone to emotional instability during pregnancy. You should communicate with the pregnant woman more often, care for her, and pay attention to her emotional changes in a timely manner..."
Jin Changyu listened carefully to the instructions, nodded and said, "Okay, I will, thank you, doctor."
After the doctor left, Jin Changyu quickly grabbed the insulated food container from the bedside table and sat down on the edge of the bed. "You haven't eaten anything all morning, why don't you eat something first?"
He opened the food box as he spoke.
Sang Qian was indeed hungry, and Jin Changyu wanted to feed her pumpkin porridge, but she asked for a steamed bun instead.
The steamed buns were made by Aunt Li early this morning. They are fragrant and sweet, and she has been enjoying them these past few days.
She took a couple of bites, glanced at the man sitting by the bed, and remembered that he was the one who had caught her before she fainted.
Why did you suddenly come home?
Jin Changyu paused as he was tidying up the lunchbox. "Come back and get a document."
Actually, he couldn't sit still at the company because she wasn't replying to his messages, so he ran back.
I never expected something like this would happen to her at home.
Sang Qian nodded, "Then you can go. Let Aunt Li stay here with me."
“I’ve already had Gao Ze take the documents,” Jin Changyu said. “Aunt Li is making lunch for you at home.”
Sang Qian stopped talking and silently ate her steamed bun.
Seeing that she didn't want to talk to him, Jin Changyu was silent for a while, then said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."
Sang Qian looked up at him and heard him say again, "I apologize to you for what happened yesterday."
"I'm sorry. If I hadn't insisted that you come home with me, I wouldn't have upset you, and now I've even caused you to end up in the hospital."
"You're really overthinking it. I didn't go to the hospital because of you."
She was angered by Sang Zhiming.
Jin Changyu already knew from Aunt Li about Sang Zhiming's visit to the house that morning. While Sang Zhiming was certainly hateful, it was also true that his mother's words yesterday about trying to take the child had made her feel depressed and anxious, and even prevented her from sleeping well at night.
"The doctor said you need to keep a good mood and not let anything upset you."
Jin Changyu looked at her and said, "So if you have any needs, or if there are any people or things you want to resolve, you can tell me, and I will definitely take care of it for you."
Sang Qian took a bite of her steamed bun, glanced at him, and snorted, "Just keep the people around you from bothering me."
"Don't worry, my mother has already been sent to Fo'an Temple by my grandmother."
Sang Qian paused, somewhat surprised, "Your grandmother...sent her to a temple?"
"Yes, and I have already made it clear to my family that the child will stay with you from now on, and no one but you can make decisions for the baby."
As he spoke, he reached for the thermos, unscrewed the lid, and handed it to Sang Qian.
"At least you have some sense of contractual obligation."
Sang Qian took the thermos and took a sip.
"There's one more thing I need to explain to you."
Sang Qian asked, "What?"
Jin Changyu placed the food box on the bedside table before looking at her seriously. "I really didn't know Zhou Yunshuang went to my house yesterday. I really didn't have any relationship with her that went beyond what is between a man and a woman. You can believe me."
Sang Qian paused, holding the thermos, and looked up at him.
Trust him?
Sang Qian couldn't help but recall what she had overheard outside Madam Jin's study yesterday.
He could lie to his most respected grandmother without batting an eye, saying "She will always be my wife." So how much truth and credibility can there be in what he says to her now?
Furthermore, ever since I heard him say with my own ears that he chose Zhou Yunshuang over her—
In her heart, his relationship with Zhou Yunshuang had become an unverifiable fact.
Now that they're divorced, there's no need for her to investigate these matters anymore.
In fact, she didn't want to discuss Zhou Yunshuang with him at all.
"Jin Changyu, you don't need to tell me, your ex-wife, what your relationship is."
She said calmly, "Your love life is none of my business."
Upon hearing this, Jin Changyu felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.
yes.
She divorced him because he was rigid and boring, and only cared about work all day long.
She doesn't even like him, so why would she care if he has any relationship with other women?
"Okay, let's not talk about that then."
Jin Changyu tried to suppress his distress and asked her, "What about other things? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Sang Qian looked at him, somewhat puzzled. "For example?"
Jin Changyu said, "Aunt Li told me about your father coming to our house."
Mentioning Sang Zhiming, Sang Qian's face darkened. "I can handle my own affairs. I don't need your help."
Seeing her expression change drastically, and fearing that continuing the conversation might affect her mood, Jin Changyu dared not say anything more.
Some things are better left unsaid.
An hour later, they were discharged from the hospital and went home.
After Sang Qian finished lunch and went back to her bedroom to rest, Jin Changyu called Gao Ze.
"Acquire the Sang family."
Upon receiving this task unexpectedly, Gao Ze was taken aback for a moment, then quickly confirmed, "You mean... Madam's family?"
"otherwise?"
"Okay, I'll get on it right away."
"Don't appear in the name of the Jin family, handle it discreetly," Jin Changyu added. "Also, don't let her know for now."
Gao Ze: "Understood."
After a pause, Gao Ze continued, "Mr. Jin, the invitation to tonight's cocktail party is for you and your wife to attend together. What do you think..."
“My wife is pregnant and won’t be attending any of these events anymore,” Jin Changyu said. “From now on, you’ll have to find an excuse to decline.”
"OK."
Knowing that his boss had been spending most of his evenings at home lately, aside from important business events he had to attend, he asked, "Mr. Jin, Mayor Lin will also be attending tonight's reception, so..."
"I will go."
Gao Ze: "Okay, I'll make the arrangements."
*
Perhaps because she didn't rest well last night, Sang Qian slept until sunset in the afternoon.
It was only when Aunt Li came up and called her that she groggily opened her eyes.
"Miss Sang, dinner is ready. Would you like to get up and eat?"
Sang Qian lazily twisted her body a couple of times on the bed, then turned over and looked at Aunt Li beside the bed, "But I don't want to eat..."
"What would you like to eat? I'll make it for you again."
Sang Qian lay half-upright on the pillow, squinting her eyes, and mumbled sleepily, "I want to eat... beef noodles, the kind that's tender and flavorful."
"Okay, I'll go make it for you right away," Aunt Li said with a smile. "Just wash up and come downstairs to eat."
Sang Qian's voice was also lazy, "Aunt Li, I don't want to go downstairs, can you bring it up for me?"
"Okay, sure."
Aunt Li went downstairs.
