"I'm not talking nonsense, I just didn't see it clearly at the time," Qu Hongbin said.
Shen Ruomei: That's not what he said at the time. But she didn't say it out loud. She wasn't very familiar with Qu Hongbin, so why should she meddle in his business?
Qu Hongbin then turned to Shen Ruomei and said, "Ruomei, you must believe me!"
"You can't call me by my name like that. Call me Shen Tongxue."
It's getting late, you should hurry up and leave!" Shen Ruomei was disgusted by what Qu Hongbin said.
Xia Juntao opened the door to the ward.
Qu Hongbin was somewhat unwilling; Shen Ruomei had been burned and needed someone to take care of her. This was also a time when she was more easily approached by others.
He was too hasty and addressed her too intimately, which made Shen Ruomei very unhappy.
Xia Juntao keeps such a close watch on people.
Qu Hongbin made a decision immediately. "Student Shen, I won't bother you today. I'll come see you again tomorrow!"
Xia Juntao: "No need, she'll be home tomorrow!"
You can't even go into where she lives.
Shen Ruomei did not say that Xia Juntao was wrong.
Qu Hongbin had no choice but to leave. As for whether he was secretly angry, who cared?
Xia Juntao: "I brought you food, hurry up and eat!"
He fetched water for Shen Ruomei to wash her hands, then opened the lunchbox and set out the chopsticks...
In short, they took very meticulous care of us.
After Shen Ruomei finished her meal, Xia Juntao brought up the matter of accommodation again.
It would be too much trouble for Xia Juntao to wait for her outside the door.
It's definitely not okay to leave him in the ward.
Does she even care about her reputation anymore?
Xia Juntao didn't give her time to hesitate. He rode his bike out to get towels and toothbrushes.
The supply and marketing cooperative had closed for the day, and no one knew where he got it from.
They even borrowed a thermos to bring hot water to Shen Ruomei and placed it within easy reach of her.
Once everything was ready, Xia Juntao went out.
After a while, he greeted a nurse who was passing by the door.
Shen Ruomei was certain that he was guarding the door.
Is he going to stay up all night?
The only person who has taken such meticulous care of Shen Ruomei since she was a child is her family's nanny...
Shen Ruomei couldn't help but let her mind wander.
"Xia Juntao? What are you doing here!"
Shen Ruomei heard her fourth brother-in-law's voice.
Xia Juntao did not expect that he would be seen by Wei Aiguo.
Commander Shen was hospitalized in a special ward, which was separated from the regular ward.
For convenience, Wei Aiguo has been driving himself lately. He left something in the car, and after going upstairs, he came down from the other side of the stairwell, where he saw Xia Juntao squatting at the door of the ward.
"I...I...Ruomei got burned, and I plan to take care of Ruomei!" Xia Juntao said nervously.
Perhaps today's events are still related to him, or perhaps he met Shen Ruomei's family.
"How did Ruomei get burned? Is she in the hospital room?" Wei Aiguo knocked on the door. "Ruomei?"
"Fourth brother-in-law! Come in!" Shen Ruomei said.
The burns on Shen Ruomei were exposed, and the area covered with ointment was a large, dark patch.
"This... how did it get so badly burned? Did the doctor say it's serious? Why didn't you tell your fourth sister?"
Are you kidding me? Let her show you!
In Wei Aiguo's mind, serious illnesses should be treated by his wife.
Shen Ruomei was scolded, but she felt very satisfied.
Shen Ruomei: "You and Fourth Sister are tired from taking care of Dad. I want to take over for you!"
But I'm so useless!
"Didn't I tell you? You don't need to worry about what happens here at night!"
"I'll go get your fourth sister to come and take a look at you!" Wei Aiguo said, and was about to leave.
Shen Ruomei quickly called out to Wei Aiguo, "I'm fine, really fine."
The burn isn't serious. I've applied ointment, and the doctor said it will be healed in a few days!
Wei Aiguo looked at Xia Juntao.
Xia Juntao quickly spoke up. "The doctor said she's fine, she can actually go home tonight." It's just that Ruomei doesn't know where to go.
With Song Yan's big belly, it's best if she doesn't have to go up and down the stairs.
Knowing the burn wasn't serious, Wei Aiguo's tone softened. "How did you get burned?"
Shen Ruomei: "It was all because I was too careless."
Wei Aiguo was a little skeptical, so he looked at Xia Juntao again.
Xia Juntao felt a little guilty. If it weren't for him, Shen Ruomei wouldn't have rushed out in such a hurry, and she wouldn't have gotten burned. "Actually, it's also my fault."
"What does this have to do with you?" Shen Ruomei asked.
Wei Aiguo couldn't understand the subtle relationship between the two of them, and besides, he didn't want to understand it.
"You're in such a condition that you can't move around easily. What will you do if you stay here tonight?" Wei Aiguo asked.
"I'll stay outside. If anything happens at night, I'll call the nurses for help!" Xia Juntao said.
"And then you agreed? To have a male classmate stand guard outside your door?" Wei Aiguo was angry. His father had been in a coma for the past few days, and during that time, a male classmate had been standing guard outside Shen Ruomei's door.
Actually, this matter isn't that serious.
However, Wei Aiguo felt that since the two of them had not yet established a relationship, this was really inappropriate.
After being burned, Shen Ruomei felt that she couldn't find anyone to take care of her, and she was quite upset.
So she's under someone's control.
Shen Ruomei's tears fell.
Wei Aiguo: "I said a few words to you and you started crying. You're such a grown man, and what you did was inappropriate."
"Didn't you even think to tell your family?"
Shen Ruomei nodded vigorously, a smile on her face, but tears streamed down her face.
Wei Aiguo was a little angry just now, but Shen Ruomei made him lose his temper.
Girls are such a hassle, I didn't say anything to her.
Wei Aiguo: "I'll go upstairs and tell your fourth sister that we'll take you back together later!"
Shen Ruomei felt that her fourth brother-in-law had made her cry and run away.
Xia Juntao knew why Shen Ruomei was both crying and laughing, and he was genuinely happy for her. He comforted her while gathering her wet clothes, toothbrush, and other personal items.
Wei Aiguo and Song Yan come to the hospital every night to treat Shen Changchuan's illness.
After Wei Aiguo went upstairs, he told her about Shen Ruomei.
Xia Juntao is a very sensible person. Since he didn't rush to inform Song Yan, it means that Shen Ruomei's burns are not too serious.
Therefore, Wei Aiguo first gave Shen Changchuan a bath with spring water.
Wei Aiguo also said that Shen Ruomei was troublesome, but he didn't say anything else, and she just cried.
Song Yan could guess why.
In her past life, she was also alone.
When I'm sick and need to be taken care of, I feel inexplicably sad.
Asking a friend for help is certainly an option, but friends aren't family!
Song Yan shared his guess.
Wei Aiguo's childhood memories are filled with hardship, both in terms of material conditions. He didn't lack his parents' love or his brother's protection, and he didn't understand Shen Ruomei's thoughts.
But since his wife asked him to take care of her more, he decided to do so.
