Zhou Mo: "How did you and Miss Yan know each other? I think you two have a very good relationship."
Qi Yan: "When we were studying in the capital, we were in the same school. She was a graduate student and I was an undergraduate. Once I had acute gastroenteritis, she took me to the hospital and took care of me all night. She was very gentle, like an older sister, always giving me gifts and asking about my well-being. From then on, I regarded her as a family member."
Zhou Mo nodded: "I see. Miss Yan is indeed a very gentle person."
She hasn't forgotten that last time she had her period, it was she who helped bring her sanitary pads and tissues.
However, Han Chenque didn't like such a gentle and considerate person, and Zhou Mo was a little confused about the reason.
"Let's not talk about it," Qi Yan said, "Let's eat quickly. I suddenly remembered something, and I want to go back quickly after eating."
"Okay, let's get started."
Qi Yan ate his meal even faster than usual. Seeing him wolfing it down, Zhou Mo also felt an appetite whetted.
It was a rare opportunity for the food to improve, so Zhou Mo accidentally ate a little too much.
The plates on the table were almost empty. Zhou Mo was about to say that he was full and wanted to take a break, but Qi Yan stood up and walked to the front desk to pay the bill.
"Senior sister, let's go," Qi Yan came back and picked up his coat as if to leave, looking quite anxious.
Zhou Mo was afraid of delaying him, so he also stood up and took his things.
The two walked out of the hotel together.
They each drove their own car. Qi Yan sent Zhou Mo to the door, found Zhou Mo's car parked at the door, and watched Zhou Mo drive away.
Seeing the white Mercedes-Benz CLA leave, Qi Yan turned around and went back to the hotel, going upstairs in two steps.
…
The next day was a weekend.
Zhou Mo got up early and was tidying up the room.
Han Chen suddenly sent her a message saying that Yan Yi had come to Dongjiang and wanted to visit them. He might have to stay at home for lunch.
Zhou Mo was very confused when he saw the message.
Yan Yi? Didn’t you say last night that you would return to Shanghai overnight?
Maybe it was delayed because of something?
not understand.
Since Yan Yi is coming, she is coming as Han Chi’s fiancée, that is, as the “third sister-in-law”, so she must be treated well.
It will take a while for Han Chen to come back. He will probably be exhausted and need to rest.
Zhou Mo didn't want Han Chen to be too tired, so she went out to buy vegetables. She thought about what to cook for Yan Yi since she was coming.
I only have a few specialties, and that should be enough.
When I came back from the supermarket, Han Chen was already home.
When Zhou Mo entered the house, Han Chen was taking a shower in the bathroom.
"Are you tired? Was it 'Night Without Distinction' last night?"
Zhou Mo asked through the bathroom door.
"It's okay. There's a patient who's having some emotional issues."
"Is it the same patient from the car accident last time?"
"Well," Han Chen said, "I've already started psychological intervention. He's been pretty stable recently. He had some fluctuations last night and was a little bit reluctant to see the doctor."
"What do you mean by a doctor?"
"Just recognize me, and don't listen to anything else."
"He probably saw you as his lifeline. He was so badly injured, it's inevitable he'll have PTSD."
"Well," Han Chen said, "fortunately, his family cooperated. Doctors aren't afraid of encountering complex and difficult patients, because no matter how difficult the problem is, there is always a way to deal with it. What they fear is encountering difficult family members. When will we be able to be like in other countries, where patients can make their own decisions and sign their names for general illnesses, and family members don't interfere too much?"
"Isn't it good for the patient to make the decision on their own regarding their own illness?" Zhou Mo asked, "I don't understand why the family members have to sign."
"If you encounter a patient who is comatose, unconscious, or incapable of independent action, I can understand the family's signature. As for anything else... as a doctor, I can't understand it."
"I remember there was news that mothers can only get family members' signatures for childbirth, not even their own signatures," Zhou Mo sighed. "It's scary to think about it. When I give birth, I'm taking on the risk of childbirth with my own life and health, but now the right to agree or not is in someone else's hands... It's scary to think about it. What if I'm afraid of pain and want an epidural? If my husband doesn't agree and doesn't sign, I'll have to endure it..."
Childbirth is also a major test of a person's character. It is hard to say whether the person you marry is a human or a ghost, but you can definitely tell by giving birth to a child.
"Fortunately, it's been changed now," Han Chen said. "Now even if you sign yourself, it's recognized. If you're not confident in your husband, you can authorize your parents before giving birth."
"I also think that parents are more reliable."
Han Chen teased her: "Am I unreliable?"
Zhou Mo: "It remains to be discussed."
Han Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry. I won't make any major decisions regarding your personal safety. Uncle Zhou and Aunt Liu have the final say. You are their most beloved daughter, and the decisions they make will definitely be the best for you. I respect all their decisions."
Zhou Mo felt warm in his heart.
She understood Han Chen's thoughts.
Anyone in this world could hurt her except her parents.
Han Chen loved her, so he respected his parents' harmless love for her because he didn't want to hurt her either.
Han Chen’s responsibility is not that I make the choices and I take the responsibilities, but that you make the choices and leave the rest to me.
This solid sense of security, tolerance and responsibility are exactly why Zhou Mo fell in love with Han Chen.
Just like when the two of them were caught dating by the class teacher, Zhou Mo could "deny" it as much as she wanted, and Han Chen would take all the rest for her, no matter what the bad consequences were.
Memories till here.
Zhou Mo suddenly felt that it was probably from that time that his feelings towards Han Chen began to change.
After all, who could resist such a responsible person?
When Yan Yi came.
Zhou Mo was just frying the last dish.
When she entered, it was Han Chen who helped open the door.
At that time, Zhou Mo was in the kitchen, and the two people at the door did not make much noise, so Zhou Mo did not hear it.
It was Han Chen who came to the kitchen door and said, "Someone is coming."
Only then did Zhou Mo realize that Yan Yi had entered the house.
Han Chen didn't even invite Yan Yi to change his shoes and sit in the living room, so he just let him stand at the door.
Zhou Mo saw Yan Yi standing awkwardly at the door, neither going in nor backing out. She took the opportunity to glare at Han Chen and quickly welcomed Yan Yi in.
"Sister Yi, come in and sit anywhere." Zhou Mo greeted.
"Thank you," Yan Yi immediately handed a small gift box to Zhou Mo. "I didn't know what to bring when I came here, so I just bought a gift. Please accept it."
"You've taken so much trouble. You don't have to be so polite." Zhou Mo took it with a smile. "But I also prepared a small gift, which may not be as grand as yours."
Yan Yi smiled and said, "It's okay. I was free and Han Chi asked me to come over to see you, so I came to see you and Han Chen. By the way, where's Aunt Wu? Isn't she here?"
"She and my parents are at Yuan Shangju. They live across the street from me and are old friends, so I can look after her."
On the coffee table, Han Chen had already prepared hot tea.
Zhou Mo poured a cup of tea for Yan Yi.
