Chapter 252 Having received one million, the service must be impeccable.
Huang Shan, who was in the hospital, suddenly sneezed twice.
"Shanshan, have you caught a cold?" Shen Yan asked with concern.
He was still unable to move while lying in bed, relying entirely on Huang Shan to take care of him. He was worried that Huang Shan would overwork herself, so he said, "Why don't you find me two caregivers? That way you can have an easier time."
“It’s okay. I don’t have classes these two weekends, so I can stay here all day. I’ll find a caregiver on Monday.”
Shen Yan still had tubes inserted into his body, so he couldn't eat or drink. Huang Shan could only wipe his face and hands, and occasionally turn him over. Most of the time, she just stayed with him.
Shen Yan was still very weak and spent most of his time sleeping and resting. Huang Shan sat beside him and watched him, feeling especially sweet. Now she could touch his hands and his face.
It's so nice to be able to touch my own man however I want.
Huang Shan used a cotton swab dipped in water to moisten Shen Yan's lips. "The doctor said you're young and recover quickly. Once you pass gas, the feeding tube can be removed, and then you can drink water and porridge."
"Shanshan," Shen Yan was deeply moved by the way someone had taken care of him for the first time. He held Huang Shan's hand and said in a hoarse voice, "I will be good to you from now on."
Huang Shan shyly hummed in agreement, "Me too."
Shen Yan's heart fluttered, and he wanted to hold Huang Shan in his arms and cherish her, but unfortunately, he was not very mobile at the moment. He would recover to about 70-80% in another week.
...
The Shen family.
Nancy experienced the warmth of a normal family for the first time.
Shi Jingman kept putting food on Nancy and Chu Rou's plates, saying, "You two eat more. Nancy is too thin. Eat more meat to help her get some nutrition. Rou Rou is also too thin. Don't you love braised pork ribs the most?"
Chu Rou swallowed hard as she looked at the ribs, but didn't eat a single bite. She handed the ribs back to Shi Jingman, saying, "Mom, I'm taking Chinese medicine right now, so I can only eat light food. You can have the ribs."
"What kind of Chinese medicine are you taking? Are you sick?" Shi Jingman asked anxiously.
"No, it's just that I ate too many cold things when I was little, and now I have a bit of uterine coldness," Chu Rou smiled with her eyes narrowed. "Mo Chi took me to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, and I'll drink two doses of medicine to regulate it."
“I told you back then, but you wouldn’t listen. You were always sneaking drinks and ice cream,” Shi Jingman snorted. “Now look what’s happened. You’re already in your twenties and you’re already getting all sorts of problems. By the time you’re my age, you’ll probably have no healthy spots on your body.”
"I was wrong, Mom. From now on, I'll drink hot water during the hottest days of summer, okay?" Chu Rou was most afraid of Shi Jingman nagging her.
Shi Jingman glared at her and didn't say anything more. Instead, she put some food on Nancy's plate and said, "Nancy, try my sweet and sour fish and see how it is."
Nancy took a bite of the fish, and it tasted just like she remembered. Her mother had also made sweet and sour fish for her. "It was delicious."
"Eat more if you like it," Shi Jingman put a few more pieces of fish on Nancy's plate, and didn't forget to remind her, "Nancy, you also have to be careful and eat less cold food, otherwise you'll end up with a cold uterus like Rou Rou. By the way, Nancy, how old are you this year?"
Chu Rou also looked at Nancy; she had forgotten to ask Nancy's age.
“I’ve just come of age; I’m eighteen,” Nancy replied.
"Eighteen?" Chu Rou looked at Nancy in shock. She really hadn't expected Nancy to be so young.
Shi Jingman and Shen Minghui were also quite surprised.
Nancy touched her face. "Doesn't it look like it?"
“No, not,” Chu Rou said quickly, her mouth moving faster than her brain. “It’s not that you look old, it’s that you have such a mature personality. I thought you were about my age. Turns out you’re a little sister.”
“Yes,” Shi Jingman nodded, “When Rou Rou was eighteen, she was like a silly girl, always laughing and joking around without any seriousness, unlike Nancy, who is so quiet and sensible.”
Chu Rou looked embarrassed and said plaintively, "Mom, how can you be so disparaging? Even if you want to praise Nancy, you don't have to put her down like that, making me sound like an idiot."
Nancy's eyes lit up with a smile as she looked at the mother and daughter in front of her with envy.
Shi Jingman glanced at Chu Rou and said, "Did I say something wrong? Back then, all you did was run around outside. If I hadn't kept an eye on you with a stick for a year, would you have been able to get into university?"
"Hahaha," Shen Minghui laughed loudly from the side, "Rou Rou, your mother was right, you were a tomboy back then, always covered in mud like a monkey."
Chu Rou awkwardly tucked her hair behind her ear. "Uncle Chen, please stop exaggerating. I'm losing face."
"Let's not talk about it anymore," Uncle Shen said with a smile, stopping the conversation. "It's a pity that Mo Chi didn't come. I'll have no one to drink with. When Mo Chi comes back from the US, I'll definitely have him come over and have a good drink with me."
"Absolutely!" Chu Rou smiled and raised her glass of beverage. "Uncle Chen, I'll drink with you!"
"good!"
The name Nancy heard most often these past two days was "Mo Chi," apparently Chu Rou's boyfriend. She found it hard to imagine what kind of man could be worthy of Chu Rou.
It definitely won't be like that man!
That evening, Chu Rou and Nancy stayed at the Shen family's house.
"Nancy, is it okay if you stay with me tonight?" Chu Rou looked at Nancy tenderly.
Nancy nodded. In just one day, she and Chu Rou had become quite familiar with each other, mainly because Chu Rou was so enthusiastic, and her family and friends were also very welcoming, which helped her quickly integrate into the group.
It's truly amazing. Perhaps she prefers this country and its people.
Meanwhile, those so-called relatives in the M country were scheming against and killing each other. She has survived until now because of her strength, patience, caution, and the protection of that man!
He promised her that she could come back to pay respects to her mother when she turned eighteen, and after returning, she would have to change into women's clothing and stay by his side.
If she doesn't go back, will he come looking for her?
"Nancy!" Chu Rou walked up to Nancy with a nightgown in her hand and called out to her when she saw her standing there in a daze.
"Huh?" Nancy snapped out of her daze and saw the pink pajamas in Chu Rou's hand. She raised her eyebrows. "This isn't for me, is it?"
Chu Rou smiled and nodded, "Yes, you're only eighteen. This suits you very well. Don't worry, it's new."
Nancy's eyes clearly showed her rejection.
Chu Rou shook out her pajamas, revealing a pink nightgown with a white collar and two rabbit ears hanging down the back.
Nancy covered her eyes, making it hard to imagine how she would look in it.
“Come and try it,” Chu Rou said, pulling Nancy into the bathroom. “You can’t take a bath, so let me help you wipe yourself down first.”
"I can do it myself." Nancy was a little overwhelmed by Chu Rou's enthusiasm.
"Don't be shy, I'm eight years older than you, it's only right that I take care of you. You're injured, so you can't move around too much," Chu Rou began to undress Nancy. "Besides, you paid me a million, so the service has to be top-notch."
