Chapter 279 Awakening and Warmth
When Su Wantang opened her eyes, all she saw was a gray-white ceiling.
She was stunned for a few seconds before she remembered that she had fainted in the hospital.
Turning her head, she saw Lu Jingyan sitting on the edge of the bed.
He was wearing a military uniform, with two buttons undone at the collar, revealing his Adam's apple. His eyes were fixed on her, dark and gleaming.
Su Wantang moved her fingers.
He was holding my hand.
It's very tight.
"Jingyan?" Her voice was terribly hoarse.
Lu Jingyan didn't say anything, but leaned down and kissed her forehead.
It's very hot.
"Wantang," his voice was hoarse, "you've worked hard."
Su Wantang blinked.
She remembered that after giving Lu Jingyan acupuncture, she had no strength left. And then... and then she remembered nothing more.
"Are you...are you alright?" she asked.
Lu Jingyan nodded.
"How long has it been?"
“You slept for a whole day and night.” Lu Jingyan released her hand and helped her sit up. “Are you hungry?”
Su Wantang shook her head.
She hadn't recovered yet; her head was a little dizzy.
Lu Jingyan placed a pillow behind her back and poured her a glass of water.
Su Wantang took it and drank a sip.
The water is warm, just right.
After she finished drinking, she put the cup on the bedside table.
When did you wake up?
“You were unconscious for half an hour,” Lu Jingyan said.
Su Wantang was stunned.
Half an hour?
So fast?
She thought it would take at least two or three days.
Lu Jingyan noticed her confusion and said, "When I woke up, the military doctor said I recovered too quickly, and they didn't know what happened."
Su Wantang understood.
It is spiritual spring water.
The medicine she fed Lu Jingyan contained mostly spiritual spring water.
The spiritual spring water is good for health, and when combined with the detoxifying properties of the dragon's breath grass, the effect is doubled.
She didn't speak, looking down at her hands.
My palms are still a little sore.
Lu Jingyan took her hand and kissed it.
"Wantang, thank you."
Su Wantang looked up at him.
There was something in Lu Jingyan's eyes that she couldn't understand.
It's very deep.
It felt like he wanted to swallow her whole.
She looked away.
"I'm your wife, it's only right that I save you."
Lu Jingyan smiled.
He laughed softly, but Su Wantang could tell he was in a good mood.
The door was pushed open.
Meng Wan came in carrying a bowl.
When she saw that Su Wantang was awake, a smile immediately spread across her face.
"Su Wantang, you're awake?"
Su Wantang nodded.
"mom."
Meng Wan walked to the bedside and handed her the bowl.
"Drink it quickly, I've been simmering chicken soup all night."
Su Wantang took the bowl.
The bowl was so hot that she almost dropped it.
Lu Jingyan reached out and took it, then placed it on the bedside table to cool.
Meng Wan sat on the edge of the bed and took Su Wantang's hand.
"Child, thank you, Mom."
Su Wantang shook her head.
"Mom, don't say that."
Meng Wan's eyes reddened.
“You saved Jingyan, which means you saved our whole family.” She paused, then added, “From now on, you will be the Lu family’s own daughter.”
Su Wantang felt a lump in her throat.
She had no parents in her previous life, and even after transmigrating into this life, she has never experienced maternal love.
Meng Wan's words touched the softest spot in her heart.
"Mom..." Her voice trembled slightly.
Meng Wan patted her hand.
"Silly child, why are you crying?"
Su Wantang sniffed.
"I didn't cry."
Meng Wan smiled, took out a handkerchief, and wiped the corner of her eye.
"Okay, okay, you didn't cry."
Lu Jingyan sat beside him, watching this scene, a faint smile curving his lips.
Meng Wan turned to look at him.
"Jingyan, Dad and Grandpa are waiting outside. Go and call them in."
Lu Jingyan nodded, stood up, and walked out.
The door opened, and Lu Zhenguo and Old Master Lu walked in one after the other.
Grandpa Lu walked very slowly, leaning on his cane.
He walked to the bedside and looked down at Su Wantang.
Su Wantang quickly sat up straight.
"grandfather."
Grandpa Lu nodded.
"Xiao Bai, are you feeling any better?"
Su Wantang nodded.
"Much better."
Grandpa Lu sat in a chair, his cane resting on the ground.
"I've heard about Jingyan's matter."
Su Wantang remained silent.
Old Master Lu said again, "You saved him, my Lu family owes you too much!"
Su Wantang shook her head.
“Grandpa, I am Jingyan’s wife, this is what I should do.”
Su Wantang looked at Lu Jingyan.
Lu Jingyan smiled at her.
"obedient."
Su Wantang pursed her lips and nodded.
Grandpa Lu was satisfied.
He stood up and patted Lu Jingyan on the shoulder.
"Take good care of your wife."
Lu Jingyan nodded.
"I know."
Grandpa Lu turned and walked out.
Lu Zhenguo followed behind.
As he reached the door, Lu Zhenguo turned back to look at Su Wantang.
"have a good rest."
Su Wantang nodded.
The door closed.
Only Su Wantang, Lu Jingyan, and Meng Wan remained in the ward.
Meng Wan stood up.
"You two talk, I'll go outside and take a look."
She left.
The ward fell silent.
Su Wantang picked up the bowl and took a sip of chicken soup.
The soup has cooled down, but it's just the right temperature to drink.
Very fresh.
After she finished drinking, she put the bowl on the bedside table.
Lu Jingyan sat on the edge of the bed, staring at her intently.
Su Wantang felt uncomfortable under his gaze.
What are you looking at?
Lu Jingyan didn't say anything, but reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Su Wantang struggled, but couldn't break free.
"Let go, this is a hospital."
"Nobody's here." Lu Jingyan rested his chin on her shoulder. "Just for a little while."
Su Wantang stopped moving.
She could feel that Lu Jingyan was holding her very tightly.
It was so tight that she had difficulty breathing.
"Jingyan, you're squeezing me."
Lu Jingyan loosened his grip a little, but still didn't let go.
"Wantang." His voice was very low.
"Um?"
"I almost thought I would never see you again."
Su Wantang was stunned.
Lu Jingyan continued, "When I was trapped by the gate in the base, all I could think about was you."
Su Wantang's nose started to sting again.
She reached out and hugged Lu Jingyan.
"I'm scared too," she said softly. "I'm scared of you..."
She couldn't say anything more.
Lu Jingyan hugged her tightly.
"I'm fine."
Su Wantang nodded.
"I know."
The two hugged for a long time.
Su Wantang felt like she was being strangled before she pushed him away.
"Let go, I'm suffocating."
Lu Jingyan let go of her hand and looked at her flushed face.
"Are you hungry? I'll go buy you something to eat."
Su Wantang shook her head.
I'm not hungry.
Lu Jingyan stood up.
"Then I'll go get you some hot water."
Su Wantang grabbed him.
"Don't go, just talk to me."
Lu Jingyan sat back down on the edge of the bed.
"say what?"
Su Wantang thought for a moment.
What exactly happened to you in the Northwest?
Lu Jingyan briefly recounted the events in the Northwest.
From the base to the poison gas to the gate.
Su Wantang's face turned a little pale after hearing this.
"You're taking too much of a risk."
Lu Jingyan took her hand.
"Without taking the risk, you won't get the purple clay."
Su Wantang fell silent.
She knew what the purple clay meant to Lu Jingyan.
That was the key to finding Lu Jingyue.
She sighed.
"Don't push yourself so hard next time."
Lu Jingyan nodded.
"good."
Su Wantang looked at him.
I'm serious.
“I know,” Lu Jingyan said. “I promise you.”
Su Wantang was finally satisfied.
She leaned against the pillow and closed her eyes.
I'm tired.
Lu Jingyan looked at her and reached out to tuck the blanket around her.
"Go to sleep."
Su Wantang responded in a daze.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, Lu Jingyan suddenly spoke.
"Wantang".
Su Wantang opened her eyes.
"Um?"
Lu Jingyan leaned closer and whispered in her ear, "Let's have a baby when I'm better."
Su Wantang's eyes widened.
Lu Jingyan looked at her, a smile in his eyes.
"How about it?"
Su Wantang blushed.
"What...what are you saying?"
Lu Jingyan laughed out loud.
I said, "Have a child."
Su Wantang pushed him away.
"I will not give birth."
Lu Jingyan persisted relentlessly.
Why not have children?
Su Wantang turned around, her back to him.
"I'm not having any children anyway."
Lu Jingyan hugged her from behind.
"Have one."
Su Wantang remained silent.
Lu Jingyan then said, "Just one."
Su Wantang remained silent.
Lu Jingyan breathed into her ear.
"Wantang..."
