Li Xinyi leaned against the door, heard the click of the lock, and glanced at her daughter lying on the bed.
Fortunately, the soundproofing in this room is pretty good.
She felt an unusual sensation on the left side of her neck, and an urge to vomit rose in her throat.
She rinsed herself in the bathroom for a long time, until the areas he had touched were slightly red, before she came out again.
Exhausted, I lay down next to Sun Hui, watching my daughter sleeping soundly with even breathing. I quietly held her in my arms, thinking to myself, "I just hope she can grow up healthy and happy."
But the two still have so much time to spend together. Sun Jiming is here to inspect some project, so he probably won't be back in Taipei so soon. Li Xinyi is worried about having to spend time with him in the same room like this.
Lost consciousness while thinking about it.
The next day, she woke up with a tight throat and felt hot and sore all over. Sun Hui sat quietly beside her, her little hand on her forehead, frowning, and said, "Mommy, you're so hot."
Hearing her daughter's voice, Li Xinyi's mind cleared up a bit. She held her daughter's cold hand, her throat tight as if being pulled by a rusty saw blade. Perhaps she had stayed in the bathroom for too long yesterday and caught a cold.
Thinking it over, she propped herself up, first comforted Sun Hui, helped her change her clothes, and then tidied herself up.
Fortunately, Sun Jiming's schedule is quite full today, so there's no need to worry about running into him.
The bodyguard at the door saw Li Xinyi leading Sun Hui out and immediately stepped forward, "Madam."
"You don't need to follow us anymore."
The bodyguard seemed to ignore her words, but he didn't seem to obey her orders. Instead, he kept his head down, and while he was respectful, the unyielding look in his eyes left Li Xinyi feeling somewhat helpless.
She knew that these people were hired by Sun Jiming to keep an eye on her and prevent her from doing anything to "sabotage" him.
The bodyguard respectfully opened the door for her, and Li Xinyi closed her eyes. "To the hospital."
The car stopped at Jiangcheng First Hospital. Although the car was moving smoothly, Li Xinyi felt her head getting heavier and heavier. Sun Hui, watching the people coming and going in the lobby, also began to feel anxious.
The cold sweat from their palms made their hands stick together.
As Yes came down from the intensive care unit, the nurses who passed by greeted him warmly.
Good morning, Dr. Ye! Did you work the night shift again yesterday?
Li Xinyi stood there trying to clear her mind, but her hand tightened, and she found her eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and then she gradually lost consciousness.
Yes was only a few steps away from her, watching the woman fall in front of him.
His professional ethics as a doctor compelled him to rush forward quickly, even though he wasn't wearing a white coat, and support her head with his hand to prevent her from hitting the ground.
A crowd quickly gathered in the hospital lobby.
When Sun Hui saw Li Xinyi lying unconscious on the ground, everyone around her gathered around and burst into tears.
The entire hall was filled with the piercing cries of children, as well as the noise of people rushing to the rescue and watching the spectacle.
The doctor shone a flashlight into her pupils, and Sun Hui cried out even louder.
Yes picked the person up from the ground and instructed the nurse next to him to take the child to the ward. Soon people came to the lobby and dispersed the crowd.
When Li Xinyi slowly woke up, she opened her eyes slightly and saw that the man beside the bed had a dark expression and was very displeased.
Upon seeing the man's appearance, her nerves immediately tensed up.
Seeing that she was awake, Sun Jiming said impatiently, "Li Xinyi, can't you just leave me alone? How did it come to this in just one night? People will think I'm abusing you."
His words made Li Xinyi want to laugh. When had he ever cared about her?
Pulling at her lips, which were chapped from the fever, she said, "You just do your thing, it's none of your business."
Sun Jiming had always seen her as obedient and well-behaved, so he was surprised that her first words upon waking up were sarcastic. This only fueled his anger, as his plans had already been disrupted.
"What kind of attitude is this? If I hadn't sent bodyguards to follow you, I don't know how you would have died by now."
...
"Thank you so much, Minister Sun."
Speaking made her throat hurt, so Li Xinyi turned her head away, not wanting to talk to him. Only then did she realize that Sun Hui was not in the room, and she immediately threw off the covers.
Sun Jiming was caught off guard when she quickly pulled out the IV tube.
The next second, the door was opened.
Ye Si led Sun Hui in.
Sensing that the atmosphere inside the room was a bit strange, with the IV tube hanging in the air and the medicine dripping onto the floor one drop at a time.
Yes's expression turned serious, and his tone grew cold. "Miss Li, you woke up so quickly? Why did you pull out the IV yourself?"
Seeing such an unruly patient, and then seeing Sun Jiming standing to the side, he frowned.
Li Xinyi squatted down in front of Sun Hui, hugged her, and carefully examined her before remembering that there was a doctor standing in front of her.
They awkwardly distanced themselves from each other.
Upon seeing Ye Si, Sun Jiming immediately dropped his previous impatient expression and, feigning intimacy, pulled Li Xinyi up from the ground and led her to sit on the bed. "I'm sorry, doctor, it was my fault for not taking good care of her."
His attitude in admitting his mistake was good; he really does seem like a good husband.
Before he even finished the hospital admission procedures, he heard the nurses at the front desk say that she was the wife of Minister Sun from the Ministry of Commerce, which caused quite a stir.
Ye Si keenly noticed Li Xinyi's resistant physical movements, but simply smiled and said, "It's alright, Miss Li just caught a cold and may have been lacking rest recently. However, since she suddenly fainted, I still recommend that she stay in the hospital for observation for a few days. That way, you will feel more at ease."
Ye Si's words made Sun Jiming frown slightly. He didn't want to come to the hospital every day, but since the doctor had spoken, he couldn't refuse, so he agreed, "Yes, it's better to stay in the hospital."
Li Xinyi ignored his act of being a devoted husband in front of others and lay down on the bed with Sun Hui.
While giving instructions, Yes pressed the call bell to let the nurse come in and help her reinsert the IV needle into the back of her hand. Sun Hui thoughtfully blew on the puncture site for Li Xinyi and kept staring at Yes's face.
Seeing that his ungrateful daughter got along better with a doctor than he did, Sun Jiming felt a renewed sense of displeasure and looked at Ye Si with more hostility.
She felt he was like a stray dog ​​encroaching on her land, but he still put on a gentle and considerate act.
After Yes and the nurse left the ward, he looked at the woman lying on the bed with her back to him and felt neglected.
"Since the doctor has said so, you should stay here and not wander around. I have a lot of plans these days, so if some tactless people ask unnecessary questions, you know what to say."
After saying that, Sun Jiming left with his bodyguards.
Hearing the door close, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was better to be in the hospital than to have to share a roof with him when she got back. She felt disgusted by that thought. But she couldn't stay like this forever.
We still need to think of a solution...
