Zhou Yanchen stood in the corridor, pacing back and forth slowly and heavily.
놛's brows were tightly furrowed, and the sadness between his brows was like a thick fog that could not be dispelled.
The moment he turned around, his eyes met Sheng Chu's.
Sheng Chu was walking towards her with light steps and a faint smile on his face.
Zhou Yanchen couldn't help but feel a little confused. Why was she here?
Sheng Chu walked up to Zhou Yanchen and greeted him with a smile: "Chen, what a coincidence, why are you here?"
Zhou Yanchen's voice was slightly low, and he said lightly: "My wife is having an operation here."
Sheng Chu's eyes fell on Zhou Yanchen, and he seemed to remember seeing Shen Qingli's injured hand yesterday, "Is her hand injury serious?"
"fine."
"Why are you here?"
Sheng Chu pointed to the operating room in front and explained, "My friend had surgery here, so I came to take a look."
"I saw you here, so I thought I'd come over to say hello."
Zhou Yanchen just nodded lightly and didn't say much.
Sheng Chu turned his head and stared at Zhou Yanchen, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, "Chen, you won't go back so soon this time, right?"
Zhou Yanchen was silent for a moment, "Maybe it will take a while."
Sheng Chu immediately showed a happy smile on his face, "That's great! Everyone is very happy to know that you are back. We want to have a party to celebrate your return."
"Let's set the time for the evening after tomorrow. Are you free?"
Afraid that Zhou Yanchen would refuse, Sheng Chu quickly said, "You can bring us along and let everyone get to know your wife."
Hearing this, Zhou Yanchen responded, "Okay, I'll bring you over then."
Although Sheng Chu didn't want Shen Qingli to go, she knew that if she didn't go, Zhou Yanchen would definitely not go.
Just then, the door of the operating room slowly opened.
Zhou Yanchen hurried forward and asked, "Doctor, how is my wife now?"
Steve nodded with relief, "Mr. Zhou, everything went well."
"As long as her hand persists in rehabilitation training in the later stage, there will be no problem returning to the operating table."
Zhou Yanchen reached out and held the doctor's hand tightly, "Thank you, thank you."
"You're welcome, but I just want to remind you that her hand must not be hurt again."
"Even if I get hurt again, there's nothing I can do."
"Okay, I'll remember that."
"I will protect her well and prevent her from getting hurt again."
"When will my wife come out?"
"I'll be right out."
When Sheng Chu heard this, he had already made other plans in his mind.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qingli was pushed out by the nurse.
As the operation was quite complicated, Shen Qingli completed the operation under intravenous general anesthesia.
The nurse said to Zhou Yanchen: "Since the patient is under general anesthesia, she needs to stay in the hospital for observation to ensure that her physical condition is stable."
Then, the nurse reminded: "Family members must pay close attention to her condition later. If any abnormality is found, please inform us in time."
Zhou Yanchen nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I will."
His gaze was always on Shen Qingli lying on the hospital bed, his eyes full of concern and worry.
Shen Qingli had woken up when she was pushed out, but her consciousness was still in a fuzzy state.
She looked around with a confused look in her eyes.
When her eyes fell on Sheng Chu, she felt that this person looked familiar, but for a moment she couldn't remember where she had seen him.
Sheng Chu stood quietly beside the bed, staring at Shen Qingli, the emotions in his eyes surging like a tide, so complex that it was difficult to distinguish.
After a while, she asked, "Chen, is there anything I can help you with?"
Zhou Yanchen shook his head. "No, thank you. You wait for your friend here. We'll leave first."
After saying that, he reached out and held Shen Qingli's hand tightly, "Wife, the operation went well. You can pick up surgery again in the future."
Sheng Chu looked at their backs as they walked away, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.
She stood there silently, her hands hanging by her sides unconsciously clenched into fists, her nails digging deeply into her palms, but she felt no pain at all.
Shen Qingli was sent back to the ward, and Zhou Yanchen stayed by her side and talked to her.
Shen Qingli listened quietly.
She didn't have the energy to respond yet.
Zhou Yanchen told Shen Qingli that his insomnia was actually caused by her. Now that she is back, his insomnia has improved a lot.
At least with her by 놛's side, 놛 can sleep for five or six hours.
At this time, Zhou Yanchen's WeChat video rang.
놛 took out his cell phone and saw that it was Cen Yi calling.
Zhou Yanchen pressed the answer button, and the next second, the faces of Shen Jinnan and Shen Jinxi appeared on the phone screen.
Shen Jinnan: "Dad, is Mom's surgery finished?"
"It's done. Mom has come out of the operating room."
Zhou Yanchen turned the phone towards Shen Qingli, and the two children immediately shouted, "Mom, how do you feel?"
Shen Jinxi: "Does the wound hurt?"
Shen Qingli smiled: "Mom doesn't feel any pain anymore."
Shen Jinxi asked again: "Mom, when will you come back?"
Seeing that Shen Qingli was not in good condition, Zhou Yanchen answered for her: "We will be back tomorrow. You should listen to Grandma Chen and go to bed early tonight."
"You can see your mother tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Dad, you take good care of Mom. Bye." Shen Jinnan said.
After hanging up the video, the room suddenly became quiet.
Shen Qingli stared at Zhou Yanchen and couldn't help asking, "Why didn't you ever tell me to let the two children have the surname Zhou?"
Zhou Yanchen was obviously caught off guard by this question, and his expression was slightly stunned, as if he had never expected Shen Qingli to suddenly ask such a question.
After a moment of silence, he slowly held Shen Qingli's hand and said, "Wife, I have never thought of giving the two children the surname Zhou."
놛's voice was low and firm, as if this decision had already been deeply rooted in 놛's heart.
Zhou Yanchen continued: "Not now, and not in the future."
"You went through a lot of hardships to get these two children. You paid too much for them, but I did nothing for them."
"It's only right that we take your last name."
"No matter what, everything I have belongs to you."
Zhou Yanchen made a will when Shen Qingli agreed to start over.
Most of 놛's property was left to Shen Qingli, and the rest was divided equally between the two children.
Shen Qingli didn't know this.
A warm feeling surged in Shen Qingli's heart. She didn't expect Zhou Yanchen to think this way.
She thought that once their relationship was completely stable, she would let the two children change their surnames.
