Chapter 34 See you at West Gold Mountain, Young Master Pei…
Two weeks later, after confirming that there was no redness, swelling, or oozing in her legs, Tang Ya-jun began to remove the stitches.
"From the X-ray, there are no abnormalities in the bone at the moment. However, the wound will take some time to heal, and the healing time for deeper tissues will be even longer. As for the rehabilitation time, it can be increased appropriately, for example, by about half an hour a week. In the early stages, the focus should be on moving the leg joints. After the wound has completely healed, we can gradually transition to walking and balance training."
Tang Ya-yun put down the X-ray and emphasized again, "Haste makes waste. Recovery will definitely take a very long time. Also..."
She glanced sideways at the two people wearing matching scarves, coughed lightly, and looked back: "You should avoid strenuous exercise during this time."
Luo Yunqing: "For example?"
"Of course it's running and stuff like that, otherwise what did you think I was talking about?" Tang Yajun quickly opened the medical record and wrote a few words, her voice noticeably lowered, "And... don't be too... affectionate."
Luo Yunqing: "?"
Pei Yanli: "?"
After quickly finishing the consultation record, Tang Ya-yun noticed that the two of them were looking at her at the same time. She sighed and solemnly reminded them, word by word, "What I mean is, please don't be too vigorous during sex."
I had to make her spell it out so clearly.
As soon as he finished speaking, an indescribable restlessness filled the air.
Pei Yanli turned her head away in an instant.
But the pair of clear black eyes behind him suddenly became incredibly bright.
“Okay! Got it.” Luo Yunqing replied loudly.
As she pushed the wheelchair out of the consultation room, the next patient, whose arm was in a cast, brushed past her and was about to go in when she saw that her beautiful face beam with a smile.
I walked out of the outpatient hall.
The intense gaze felt like thorns in her back, and Pei Yanli repeatedly gripped the blanket covering her legs to straighten her back.
"Honey~"
"Uh-huh."
"I'll make it for you tonight, it'll be delicious!"
"Okay, okay." Pei Yanli nodded haltingly, quickly glancing at the gift bag hanging on the back of her wheelchair, and then said, "Let's go see Xiaoyu."
After each follow-up examination, Luo Yunqing would make a detour to the inpatient department.
"Xiaoyu, look what your brother brought you this time!" He pushed her into the ward, walked to the bedside, and took out a gift bag. "Ta-da!"
A box of Lego bricks.
"It's said that putting these together is quite difficult." Luo Yunqing handed the box of building blocks forward.
Xiaoyu only glanced at it and wasn't as happy as expected, but she still took the building block box.
"Thank you, brother."
"What's wrong?" Luo Yunqing braced herself on her knees, leaning down to look at her directly. "Don't you like it?"
Xiaoyu shook her head, her head still drooping, looking listless.
Is she angry because I haven't visited him for two weeks?
Luo Yunqing turned her head and winked at Pei Yanli.
What should I do? Xiaoyu is angry.
"Xiaoyu." Pei Yanli steered the wheelchair forward and smoothed the tuft of hair sticking up on the back of his head. "Brother will play with building blocks with you, okay?"
"good."
My mood is still low, but I'm not angry yet.
Luo Yunqing took the small table that had been tucked away from the side of the hospital bed, opened the box of building blocks, and dumped them all onto the table.
Looking at this big and small set together, I checked the diagram and searched for the corresponding building blocks one by one.
"I'll go wash some fruit. You guys can take your time assembling it." He took the strawberries and jujubes he bought to the washroom outside the ward.
After washing two large boxes, I passed by the nurses' station, gave one box to the nurses on duty, and asked them a couple of questions.
Xiaoyu doesn't seem angry with him, so it must be something else.
"Actually, we got a kidney donor spot last week, but the match wasn't ideal. We won't rush to notify you if it's not successful." The nurse picked up a strawberry and comforted him, "But don't be discouraged, you're already on Xiaoyu's list, it'll be soon."
Luo Yunqing suddenly realized: "So that's why you're unhappy."
"Xiaoyu is unhappy?" The nurse took a bite of her strawberry and thought for a moment. "Oh! He's not unhappy, he's just... scared. After all, he's only six years old."
Waiting for a kidney donor is one thing, but actually finding one and preparing for a transplant is another.
Even adults would feel worried and scared in this situation, let alone such a young child.
"I had so many tests done that day, and I had nightmares and cried that night." The nurse finished the last bite of strawberry and sighed, "If I had been a match and successfully transplanted on the first try, my fear would have only lasted a few days. Now I have to keep waiting."
Luo Yunqing asked in a low voice, "Is there any way to alleviate this?"
"Well..." the nurse said she couldn't help.
Fear is a psychological phenomenon, and it cannot be eliminated simply by offering a few words of comfort.
But we can't just let him continue to be afraid. One day, he will develop an extreme aversion to surgery and transplants.
How can this be alleviated?
After leaving the hospital, Luo Yunqing kept thinking about it, even while eating and taking a shower...
Make a bathtub full of bubbles, then pinch a triangular point in your palm.
Pei Yanli had been taking a shower and soaking in the bath for over forty minutes. She read a book for a while, glancing towards the bathroom every now and then.
Nearly twenty minutes later, the book was still stuck on page 46, which was the first page.
Until the bathroom door clicked open.
Pei Yanli frantically pulled open the bedside table, intending to stuff the book inside, when she saw three neatly arranged, unopened bottles of lubricant.
The conversation from the daytime still echoes in my ears.
"Don't be too vigorous during sex."
"OK!
Snap!
The drawer was slammed shut.
Luo Yunqing dried her hair, looking puzzled: "What are you doing?"
"No, no, I didn't do anything." Pei Yanli then placed the book on top of the bedside table and skillfully took the hair towel from his hand.
The scent of fruit wafted from the ends of her hair, extending to the smooth, white nape of her neck. Only when the hair was parted could a light brown mole be seen.
Press your thumb down and rub it a couple of times.
Luo Yunqing immediately shrank her neck, feeling itchy. "Stop touching me. Tell me, what should we do about this?"
"What's up?"
"So you didn't hear what I just said? What are you thinking?" Luo Yunqing turned around, displeased.
After taking a shower, her rosy lips, full of vitality, slightly puffed out, and her clear black eyes revealed a hint of coquettishness.
Pei Yanli wrapped her arms around his waist and pulled him into her embrace. "Say it again, and I'll listen carefully this time."
“I was talking about Xiaoyu.” Luo Yunqing pinched his chin and squeezed it. “When I heard the nurse say that, I felt that you were also scared and worried the night before when you were preparing to remove the steel plate. But this situation is… a little different.”
Just as the nurse said, Xiaoyu still had to live with that worry and fear until the kidney transplant was successfully matched.
“Hmm…” Pei Yanli pressed her chin against his neck, intentionally or unintentionally rubbing the mole on the back of his neck, and thought for a while: “Fear is an emotion that everyone has, especially since Xiaoyu is still so young. It’s unrealistic to expect him to completely overcome it. We can only distract him by using something else to divert his attention.”
Luo Yunqing listened attentively and nodded.
He thought so too. He simply comforted him with "Don't be afraid." Even if it could be eliminated, it would only be temporary. In a day or two, when he thought about the matching test again, he would have the same feeling again.
The cycle repeats itself endlessly; when will it ever end?
We must relocate!
So what should we use to transfer the information?
Pei Yanli couldn't come up with a good solution for the time being, so she could only think of it later.
"Okay." Luo Yunqing touched her hair, which he had half-dried and then dried with a hairdryer. "That's it for today. Go to sleep first."
After turning off the light, Luo Yunqing climbed off him, pulled the covers up, and lay down, but he didn't move for a long time. "Husband, aren't you going to sleep?"
In the darkness, Pei Yanli glanced at the bedside table again, "Wife..."
"Um?"
"nothing."
…………
After the stitches were removed, Pei Yanli no longer had to stay at home all the time. When the weather was nice, she went to the company.
Upon receiving the news, Pei Wenxian thought for a long time and decided to hand over the project he was currently working on.
“You’ve been in charge of the overseas projects all along, so it’s only right that we hand them over to you now.”
Pei Yanli stared at him for a long time, until her eyes began to sting, before returning her gaze to the contracts in her hands. "My injury hasn't healed yet, so there's no need for you to exploit me, brother. Since we've already been following this for so long, changing people again would be a big no-no."
"Xiao Li..."
"Brother, take it back." Pei Yanli tapped the contract twice with her fingertips and then changed the subject: "After the New Year, Xiao Heng will be 22. It's time for him to gain some experience."
Pei Wenxian suddenly looked up, not understanding what he meant.
"But Father..."
"I'll talk to my father."
Pei Yanli didn't mention a word about what happened last time.
Seeing this, Chen Zhao frowned unconsciously. As soon as Pei Wenxian left, he couldn't help but say, "You know how outrageous they are."
If the landlady hadn't discovered it, the First Madam would have almost harmed him. Not to mention Pei Hengzhi, who already had a criminal record, and now he's actually helping him get into the company.
Is the boss out of his mind?!
“We’re all family.” Pei Yanli chuckled briefly. “The Pei family business will still be handed over to him in the future, so it’s fine to let him practice beforehand.”
"boss!"
"But what if he doesn't have that ability?"
Chen Zhao, half-anxious: ?
Pei Yanli didn't explain. She reached into the side pocket of her wheelchair and pulled out a photo album to display. She wiped the photos of the boy smiling and making a V sign at the camera with her sleeve and placed it where she could see it when she looked up.
"Boss," Chen Zhao gradually realized, "you mean..."
"I'm just giving the younger generation a chance to gain experience."
Chen Zhao: ...
Okay, okay, you've been spending a lot of time with the boss's wife and you've picked up her ways, haven't you?
However, it's better than actually becoming someone who doesn't understand things.
"I will convey your words to the old man right away." With a surge of emotion, Chen Zhao walked briskly out of the office with his hands behind his back.
More than half a month has passed, and Pei Hengzhi's affair has long been overshadowed by other gossip and scandals, so the old man's anger has subsided a bit.
“His second uncle is right. Instead of playing around outside all day, he should go to the company.” But there’s a condition: “He has to start from the bottom. Don’t think that just because he’s a descendant of the Pei family, he can just coast along!”
Upon hearing this, Luo Yunqing frowned deeply: "Ali, what do you mean?"
"Boss lady, please don't be so angry." Chen Zhao had been working for someone for over ten years and could guess the boss's intentions: "I guess the boss is planning to play the long game and catch a big fish."
Getting into the company doesn't guarantee you'll stay long.
Once you make a mistake and are eliminated, it's difficult to get back in.
Luo Yunqing: "But then, wouldn't he be unable to go racing?"
So what was his plan...?
"Racing?" Chen Zhao suddenly remembered: "I think I did hear that he was going to race and had invested a lot of his money in the club."
etc.
Why bring this up in particular?
Based on what happened last time, Chen Zhao's lips twitched slightly: "How did the boss know?"
As he looked over, Luo Yunqing immediately looked away.
"Boss lady—"
Chen Zhao had a bold guess, "You wouldn't..."
"Ali's birthday is coming soon!"
"The boss's birthday? December 22nd, that's still almost two weeks away." Chen Zhao said, then quickly changed the subject, "Boss lady, please don't change the subject."
"Ah, I suddenly remembered, a classmate gave me a few tickets to a racetrack." Luo Yunqing then pulled out three tickets from her pocket. "It's on the 21st, let's go see it together then."
"Boss lady!" Chen Zhao cried out anxiously, "What if the boss finds out about this..."
"You can keep it a secret until the 21st."
"I... everything is me. What if I can't hide it anymore? The boss will cut me off, no, he'll deduct my year-end bonus!" Chen Zhao cried out in terror, grabbing his face and pulling it down.
Damn it, he should have guessed it when he did something so dangerous last time.
Who would have thought that he would do something so big without making a sound?
"Don't worry, I won't deduct your money." Luo Yunqing patted him lightly twice. "This is something I prepared for Ali, a birthday surprise. Don't give it to me now or let it slip."
"A surprise?" Chen Zhao's eyes widened. "This is a shock!"
Luo Yunqing didn't want to argue with him, so she turned her back and said, "Oh, by the way, pick someone up from the hospital that day."
He took out his phone, switched to an unregistered SIM card, and sent a message: "See you at Xijinshan, Young Master Pei."
Less than a minute after the message was sent, the other party replied: Who are you?
The Mercedes that hit you.
