Chapter 37 How to Be Someone’s Husband?
The wedding photo shoot is scheduled for next Thursday.
Because it would take up two working days, Cen Xihuai needed to handle some work in advance and became busy, and Xu Qingwu was also dizzy because of leading new people.
In the next few days, the two of them rarely met during the day, but as they got along, they developed a tacit understanding that they had not had before.
For example, they report their itineraries to each other, even though none of them will be going home for dinner tonight.
For example, Cen Xihuai would prepare small cakes and desserts of different flavors for Xu Qingwu every day and ask her to evaluate them. At one point, she wondered whether Cen Xihuai wanted to introduce new after-meal desserts for the hotel and asked her to be a taster.
For example, Xu Qingwu would go to bed before 11 o'clock every night to avoid affecting Cen Xihuai's biological clock. Similarly, Cen Xihuai would put his hand on her lower abdomen to warm her stomach and relieve menstrual pain without any desire.
The days are busy but regular.
Finally, Friday came and Xu Qingwu felt exhausted. As soon as it was time to get off work, he picked up his bag and left, refusing to stay for another second.
It was the first time we sat down to have dinner together in a few days. We still ate without saying a word and finished the meal in silence.
Cen Xihuai went upstairs to the study for a meeting, while Xu Qingwu curled up on the sofa watching a movie and eating snacks.
Xu Qingwu is chatting with Zhou Zhou.
Zhou Zhou said that his teacher had recently developed a soup dumpling that could help with sleeping, and asked if he wanted to send her a few packets. Coincidentally, Zhou Zhou would pass by Chu Yue Mansion on his way to work at the hospital, so Xu Qingwu readily agreed. Although her sleep was now more regular, she wasn't sure when she would start suffering from insomnia again.
Driven by curiosity, Xu Qingwu bought a few bags of the legendary super spicy spicy strips, and ate them all while watching the movie. It was not until she ate the "Spicy Fish Tail" that she felt the spiciness. The spicier it was, the more she wanted to eat, and the spicier it became.
My lips were swollen from the spiciness, my mouth started to feel hot, my stomach felt burning, and my stomach suddenly started to ache.
She drank two glasses of warm water and felt a little better. However, not long after, the pain became worse.
Just at this time, Zhou Zhou called her and said that he was stopped by the security guard at the gate of the community. When he heard her voice, he felt something was wrong, so he immediately asked her what was wrong and wanted to take her to the hospital.
Xu Qingwu wanted to go upstairs and tell Cen Xihuai, but was afraid of disturbing him in the meeting.
The abdominal pain became more and more unbearable, and sweat had wet his temples. Zhou Zhou had already gone upstairs and was knocking on the door outside.
As Xu Qingwu walked out, she typed a message to Cen Xihuai: "I have something to go out for."
As soon as I went out, I almost fell to the ground in pain.
Fortunately, Zhou Zhou was quick to help her up and took her to the hospital.
"What's going on? You're as pale as a ghost."
"Eat spicy food...eat."
Zhou Zhou placed her in the back seat, drove quickly to the hospital, took her to the emergency room to see a doctor, and then went to his own department to report.
After a series of examinations, it was confirmed that it was acute gastroenteritis.
Cen Xihuai probably hadn't finished the meeting yet and hadn't replied to her message. Xu Qingwu was obediently receiving the infusion when she suddenly heard someone calling her.
When she turned around, it was her brother Chen Ze and sister-in-law Le Jia.
"Brother, sister-in-law, why are you here?"
Le Jia said: "Your brother drank too much at the social event and has a stomachache."
Chen Ze looked unhappy and asked her, "But you, hanging water alone in the middle of the night?"
A bottle of IV drip had already been administered, and Xu Qingwu had recovered a little. She quickly said, "My friend brought me here. He's a doctor and has gone to the department."
"What's wrong?"
"Acute gastroenteritis."
"Another snack?"
“I had something spicy…”
Xu Qingwu has always had a bad stomach. When she was in the Shen family, snacks were rationed and she was not allowed to eat anything she wanted. But now that she is married, she is free. She ate so much spicy food that she had to go to the hospital, and she was alone!
Shen Ze asked with a sullen face, "Where's Cen Xihuai?"
"He's in a meeting." After saying that, Xu Qingwu felt that it was not a good idea to say that, so she added, "He doesn't know that I have a stomachache. I didn't tell him."
The more Shen Ze listened, the tighter his brows furrowed.
The husband didn’t know that his wife was sick as he was busy in a meeting, and the wife didn’t take the initiative to tell her husband. He didn’t even know how Xu Qingwu got married!
Xu Qingwu keenly noticed that Shen Ze was angry, so she quickly changed the subject: "Brother, have you had a check-up?"
Shen Ze sneered, "Are you still in the mood to care about me?"
In Le Jia's eyes, Chen Ze had always been gentle and gentlemanly, and this was the first time she had seen him so angry.
Le Jia advised him: "Qingwu is still in pain, don't be angry, let's go get checked first."
Xu Qingwu echoed: "Brother, your face is as white as paper. Go get checked. I'm much better now."
Shen Ze looked at her deeply and went to find a doctor. Xu Qingwu breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.
As soon as I relaxed, my stomach started to hurt again.
Xu Qingwu sat on the cold bench, boredly watching the popular TV series on the TV on the wall.
Zhou Zhou had just finished his shift with his colleague and wanted to come over after finishing his work, but as if he was cursed, patients kept coming in, so he had no choice but to send a message to Xu Qingwu to ask her what was going on.
When the cell phone rang, Xu Qingwu thought it was Cen Xihuai replying to the message.
She sent the medical record to Zhou Zhou, who took a look and replied: You have acute gastroenteritis caused by stress, and eating spicy food probably triggered it.
Xu Qingwu sent a crying cat emoji.
She was really under a lot of pressure this week. The new guy named He Yiyang made more mistakes the harder he worked, which almost made her nervous.
Zhou Zhou replied with an emoticon of stroking a dog's head, asking her to hold on a little longer and that he would come over to accompany her after he finished seeing the patients he was currently treating.
Xu Qingwu asked him to take the patient's condition seriously, as it was not uncommon for someone to receive an IV drip, so he should not worry about her.
Cen Xihuai didn't have Shen Ze's phone number, so when an unfamiliar number appeared on his phone screen, he hung up immediately.
Only his family and two assistants know his private number, and Xu Qingwu is at home now.
Only after he hung up the phone did he see the chat message that popped up. It was sent by Xu Qingwu an hour and a half ago.
He called Xu Qingwu, but no one answered.
The strange phone rang again and he quickly answered it.
"I'm Shen Ze."
"Excuse me?"
"Did you know that Qingwu was in the hospital?"
Cen Xihuai frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Which hospital is she in?"
Chen Ze's voice was filled with suppressed anger: "Your wife went to the hospital alone in the middle of the night for acute gastroenteritis and got an IV drip. You don't even know which hospital she is in, and you're still holding that rubbish meeting. How can Mr. Cen be a good husband?"
"Excuse me, please tell me which hospital she is in."
After knowing the address, Cen Xihuai hung up the video conference, took the car keys and went to the elevator.
After arriving at the hospital, he rushed in while calling Xu Qingwu, and finally saw someone sitting on a stool in the corner.
She looked very small, not even noticing her phone vibrating next to her legs, and her head tilted to the left and then to the right as she slept.
When her head tilted to the left again, Cen Xihuai strode forward and stretched out his hand to support her face.
Xu Qingwu opened her eyes dazedly: "Cen Xihuai?"
She was like a defenseless, soft and adorable baby animal. Cen Xihuai couldn't help but lower his voice: "I'm here."
