Shi Heng looked down at Gu Youran, and gently brushed away the scattered hair from her forehead with his slender fingers. "Still smiling?"
He pretended to be serious, but his eyes darkened when he saw her pale lips. "I'll make you some angelica chicken soup when we get home."
"I want to drink it now..." Gu Youran rubbed against his arms, her voice becoming softer and softer.
Shi Heng tightened his arms and held her more firmly.
He glanced out the window and saw that the sky in the east was already turning pale.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, when families should have been reunited, the smell of disinfectant from the hospital replaced the sulfurous smell of firecrackers.
Looking at his wife sleeping peacefully in his arms.
Suddenly I felt that as long as she was in my arms, we would be reunited everywhere.
…
at the same time.
Shi Yining opened her eyes drowsily and found herself wrapped in the man's warm arms.
She raised her head slightly and looked at Si Wenjie who was sleeping soundly.
In the morning light, his profile looks particularly handsome.
After not seeing each other for five years, Shi Yining couldn't help but stretch out her fingers and carefully touch his eyebrows.
Her fingertips gently stroked his thick eyebrows and down along the straight bridge of his nose.
Finally it stopped at the lips that always made her heart beat faster.
There were still faint traces of her lipstick from last night, mixed with the aroma of red wine.
"Are you being dishonest so early in the morning?" Si Wenjie suddenly spoke, his voice low and hoarse, with the laziness of waking up in the morning.
He slowly opened his eyes, her reflection reflected in his dark pupils, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Shi Yining felt a heat on the tip of her ears and tried to pull her hand back, but he grabbed her wrist and pressed it against her chest.
"Have you touched her enough?" he asked in a low voice, his thumb gently rubbing the inside of her wrist, where the red mark he left last night still remained.
"Not enough." Shi Yining simply turned over and pressed on him, poking his Adam's apple with his fingertips.
"I haven't seen you for five years. I need to check carefully to see if Dean Si has aged."
Si Wenjie grabbed her neck with his big hand and pressed her towards him, "Then check carefully."
His kiss was warm as morning.
Shi Yining felt weak all over after being kissed by him, and her fingers unconsciously clenched the collar of his pajamas.
"Don't make trouble..." She panted slightly and pressed against his chest, "Don't you still have to go to the hospital?"
Si Wenjie's kiss slid down her neck and he said vaguely, "No rush."
"I'll go with you." Shi Yining said suddenly.
Si Wenjie paused and looked up at her. "You won't be reporting until after the New Year. What are you doing today?"
"I can't bear to be separated from you." Shi Yining held his face, "It's been five years. I don't want to waste a minute."
Si Wenjie's eyes darkened, and he turned over and pushed her back onto the bed, kissing her fiercely and urgently.
It was as if he wanted to pour all the longing of the past five years into this kiss.
Shi Yining was so dizzy from his kiss that two buttons of her pajamas were undone without her knowing.
The man's palm reached in, and the burning temperature of his palm made her tremble all over.
"Ajie..." She called him with a light breath, "If you continue like this...we won't be able to go out today..."
"Then don't go out." He bit her earlobe. "I'm the dean anyway. No one would dare to say anything if I miss a day."
Shi Yining laughed out loud at his amusement and pushed his chest, "No, I have to go check out the hospital environment and familiarize myself with it in advance."
Si Wenjie sighed and rested his forehead on her shoulder to relax.
Only then did he reluctantly compromise, "Okay, let's go together."
She smiled and kissed him on the chin, and just as she was about to stand up, he pulled her back.
"Wait a moment."
Si Wenjie took out a velvet box from his coat and opened it.
Inside was an exquisite necklace, the pendant of which was a small scalpel with a blue diamond set in the handle.
"It was ordered five years ago, just waiting for its owner to come back."
Shi Yining's eyes instantly became moist, and she threw herself into his arms.
Si Wenjie caught her steadily, helped her put on the necklace, and whispered in her ear, "Go wash up, breakfast will be ready soon."
Twenty minutes later, Shi Yining leaned lazily against the kitchen door frame.
Si Wenjie was wearing the pink apron she had bought while shopping last time, and her slender fingers were gently stirring the glutinous rice balls in the pot.
Suddenly, she narrowed her eyes.
On the side of his neck, there was a scratch mark on the pale skin, which was particularly eye-catching in the morning light.
Shi Yining's ears felt hot instantly, that was the mark left by her passion last night.
"Have you seen enough?" Si Wenjie asked without turning his head, with a smile in his voice.
He picked up a dumpling accurately and turned around, "Taste it to see if it's sweet enough."
Shi Yining took a bite from his hand, and the sweet and sticky black sesame filling melted on the tip of her tongue.
So sweet that it makes you dizzy.
She suddenly remembered the look in his eyes when he said "every day, every night" last night.
It turns out that all the unexpressed longing is hidden in the smell of fireworks.
Waiting to become the sweetest candy when we meet again.
…
7:50 in the morning, in the lobby of Kangrui Hospital.
As soon as Si Wenjie and Shi Yining entered the hospital, his cell phone vibrated.
"Dean, we admitted a patient with a gunshot wound to the emergency room last night."
The chief surgeon's voice was filled with fatigue. "The bullet was only 2 millimeters away from the heart. Doctor Gu was in charge of the operation, and it lasted until after 3 a.m...."
Si Wenjie frowned slightly and looked at Shi Yining after hanging up the phone. "You Ran had surgery at National Taiwan University last night."
"Is it serious?" Shi Yining paused.
"The specific situation is still unclear, let's go and take a look."
In front of the nurses' station, the head nurse was handing over work to the night shift nurse.
When she saw Si Wenjie coming, she immediately fell silent and respectfully handed over the medical record folder.
"Dean, this is the complete record of Dr. Gu's surgery last night."
Si Wenjie took it and quickly flipped through the medical records.
When he saw the data that "the bullet was only 2.03 mm away from the heart", his eyes were full of admiration.
"Surgery on this type of position..." He gently closed the medical record. "Only Dr. Gu can perform such a perfect operation."
In front of the VIP ward door, Shi Yining walked lightly.
Through the glass window on the door, you can see Gu Youran sleeping quietly.
Shi Heng sat on the sofa next to the hospital bed, with an open laptop on the coffee table.
“Squeak—”
The sound of the door opening made Shi Heng look up suddenly.
When he saw the person coming, he immediately closed his computer and stood up, but his face suddenly darkened when his eyes swept across Si Wenjie's neck.
"You, follow me."
Shi Heng grabbed Si Wenjie's wrist and dragged him out of the ward without resistance.
In the fire escape.
Shi Heng pushed Si Wenjie against the wall, his right hand tightly gripping his collar.
"Five years."
Shi Heng lowered his voice to a whisper, his thumb rubbing the scratches on Si Wenjie's neck. "She waited for you for five years, and this is what you get?"
Si Wenjie remained motionless, even his breathing rate remained unchanged. "I never stopped waiting."
"What are these traces?"
Shi Heng's fingertips almost dug into the other person's skin. "Does the marriage partner arranged by the Si family know what you have done?"
Si Wenjie suddenly took out a document from the inside pocket of his suit and pressed it against his chest.
"See for yourself."
