Su Yueya longed to hug Lu Zhengjun, but she didn't dare. So she could only fondly stroke his bandaged hand.
"Lu Zhengjun, you are not allowed to say anything about breaking up with me in the future. No, you are not even allowed to think about it, understand?!" Su Yueya said with red eyes.
The tough, unyielding man turned into a tender, gentle soul because of Su Yueya's words.
Hearing Su Yueya's promise and seeing her resolute attitude, Lu Zhengjun was overjoyed.
While I was happy, I also felt a hidden sense of inferiority.
Do I still deserve Su Yueya now? Am I really holding Su Yueya back?
It's one thing to destroy yourself, but do you really want to drag Su Yueya down with you?
“Crescent Moon, if—” Lu Zhengjun had just begun to speak.
He wanted to say that perhaps separating was the right thing to do, and perhaps Su Yueya should be given more time to reconsider.
But Su Yueya didn't give him a chance to continue. She gently placed her index finger in front of Lu Zhengjun's dry lips, preventing him from speaking.
"Lu Zhengjun, you are not allowed to say it!"
"What did I just tell you?" Her voice was choked with sobs, her eyes red as she glared at him. "You're not listening to me anymore, are you? You don't want me anymore, do you?"
"No, I didn't..." Lu Zhengjun shut her mouth.
He couldn't even wipe away Su Yueya's tears; this was the first time in his life he had experienced what it meant to be powerless.
Lu Zhengjun is not in a good state right now.
Su Yueya was worried that he would overthink things, especially since she couldn't watch over him all the time. What if he did something stupid?
It would be best if someone accompanied him.
Lu Zhengjun was, after all, an active-duty soldier and a regimental commander. He was seriously injured during a mission, so he naturally stayed in a special care ward.
Not only do they have dedicated nurses to take care of them, but the hospital also arranges for nutritious meals to be delivered during mealtimes.
He had been in a coma and couldn't eat, but now that he's awake, a nutritious meal is being delivered to him on time.
"The patient has just woken up. Here is some light liquid food. If you can eat, you can have a little bit." The caregiver took a meal from the food cart.
Su Yueya thought she might as well eat with Lu Zhengjun in the ward, so she took another serving.
"Honey, eat a little bit of plain porridge first. I'll go to the office later and get a thermos. The rest of the porridge will be in the thermos, and you can eat some more later," Su Yueya said.
She didn't even have time to eat herself; she first fed Lu Zhengjun porridge.
Lu Zhengjun is very "obedient" now. He does whatever Su Yueya says and does whatever she asks him to do.
However, after only a few bites, he felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach and asked to stop.
"You eat yours first, I don't want to eat now," Lu Zhengjun said.
After all, they hadn't eaten for several days, and even the blandest porridge would irritate their stomach.
"Yes, it's better to eat less. You should eat less now, but you can have more frequent meals."
Su Yueya poured the remaining white porridge into a thermos and then began to eat her lunch.
She hadn't eaten or slept much in the past few days, her mind preoccupied with when Lu Zhengjun would wake up, and she had no interest in doing anything else.
Now that Lu Zhengjun has woken up, she feels a little more at ease. The next thing to pay attention to is Lu Zhengjun's prognosis and his mental state.
Lu Zhengjun looked at Su Yueya and noticed that she had lost a lot of weight, and her chin was sharper.
In the afternoon, Su Yueya still had to continue seeing patients.
"You stay in the ward and rest. I have to go to work. I'll come back to be with you after I've finished seeing the patients," Su Yueya said.
“Yes, you don’t need to worry about me,” Lu Zhengjun said.
Before leaving, Su Yueya went to the nurses' station and asked the nurses to take extra care of Lu Zhengjun.
"Keep an eye on him for me. If anything seems amiss, be sure to let me know immediately. Thank you."
"Dr. Su, you're too kind. This is just my job, don't worry!" the nurse said.
Su Yueya did not go to the clinic immediately, but instead made a phone call first.
“Mom and Dad, Zhengjun has woken up. If you have time, you can come and see him more often,” Su Yueya said.
"She's finally awake!" Bai Xiuhui was extremely excited and immediately shared the news with Lu Anguo.
"Mom and Dad, Zhengjun has woken up, but he just found out about his condition. I'm afraid he... he's upset. Even though he doesn't say anything, he... he still wants to be separated from me!"
As she spoke, Su Yueya's aggrieved mood resurfaced.
She didn't want to cry in front of her in-laws, but now she felt that she had to win them over to her side first, so that the three of them could form a united front, lest Lu Zhengjun turn around and persuade his parents, and then really break up with her!
"Dad, Mom, I promise you, no matter what Zhengjun is like, no matter if we have children in the future, I will not separate from him. You have to help me! I don't want to divorce him!"
Su Yueya's tearful words tugged at the hearts of Bai Xiuhui and Lu Anguo.
What a wonderful daughter-in-law!
If it were someone else, they might be having other ideas by now.
But Su Yueya only had Lu Zhengjun in her heart.
"Yueya, I'm sorry you had to go through this," Bai Xiuhui said, her voice choked with emotion, but she made her stance clear: "If you've thought it through and don't want to separate from Zhengjun, Mom will definitely support you!"
They were afraid that Su Yueya would regret it in the future, after all, their son was like this now.
"Of course we won't separate! Lu Zhengjun shouldn't even think about it! But... Zhengjun is feeling down right now, and I think we need to make some arrangements so that someone can be with him at all times. I'm afraid he might do something foolish on his own!" Su Yueya said fearfully.
Bai Xiuhui and Lu Anguo also thought it made sense; they should be careful.
After all, Lu Zhengjun was seriously injured. Anyone who has experienced such a dramatic change would have a vulnerable side.
"But I have an outpatient appointment this afternoon and can't go with him. Mom and Dad, could you please see if I can go this afternoon..."
Bai Xiuhui still had work to do in the afternoon and couldn't stay at the hospital indefinitely.
But Lu Anguo can.
He now does some command and administrative work, which is not complicated and does not require him to stay in the army all day. He does have time to spend with his son.
Furthermore, the organization was aware of Lu Zhengjun's injury.
Both morally and logically, Lu Anguo should be given a holiday so that he can take care of and spend time with his son.
"Yueya, you can go to work without worry. Your dad will be there soon. He'll keep an eye on Zhengjun." Bai Xiuhui and Lu Anguo quickly made a decision after discussing it.
"That's good. With Dad here, I can rest assured!" Su Yueya said.
Perhaps Lu Anguo could advise Lu Zhengjun not only from a father's perspective, but also from a man's perspective.
If we could help Lu Zhengjun put aside her inner turmoil, that would be the best outcome.
Anyway, Su Yueya had already expressed her stance to Lu Anguo, and she thought that her father-in-law couldn't lie to her and would definitely support her and stand on her side!
