Gu Chenxu seemed to have not expected that he would ask such a question.
"My examination results show that you have no brain damage."
“…”
Huo Qinghuai took a deep breath and said, "I mean, I can't get up, how can I get to the bathroom?"
Gu Chenxu glanced at the catheter and understood.
"You can have it removed today. You can handle the rest of the process in bed, or you can ask your family to push you to the bathroom in a wheelchair, or you can call a nurse."
"You have so many men who can help you."
“…”
Huo Qinghuai was having trouble breathing and seemed to be on the verge of going berserk.
"Heal me quickly!"
Gu Chenxu closed the medical record book and put the pen back in his chest pocket.
He said coldly, "I have no choice but to let my sister-in-law come."
"Then let her come."
"I can't get in touch with him. My brother has upset my sister-in-law again recently. I don't know where she is, and she has blocked me."
Huo Qinghuai reasonably suspected that Gu Chenxu wanted to trick him.
"I haven't done anything to offend you."
Gu Chenxu shook his head, "No."
"I'm telling the truth."
“…”
It was annoying enough for him to have Ji Jin serve him urine here.
Now the situation is even more serious.
Since she had just threatened him, he didn't dare to find any reason to drive her away.
If he gets really angry and doesn't even turn back, he will suffer the consequences.
He would be happy to let her take care of him as long as he could take care of himself.
For now, forget it.
After Huo Qinghuai tried to get up on his own, Ji Jin came in with Pojun.
Pojun is also a white man.
Even if the husband cannot get out of bed, he cannot ask his wife to wake him up.
Sir, you have a way.
So, the gentleman wanted to get his wife out of the way.
He just delayed outside for some time.
"Sir, you are looking for me."
Huo Qinghuai signaled him to come forward with his eyes and whispered a few words in his ear.
Pojun paused slightly, a little disagreeing.
But Ji Jin was right next to him, so he couldn't say anything.
I could only respond silently.
"I understand, sir."
Pojun left the ward and Ji Jin called him.
She looked at Huo Qinghuai and asked, "Didn't you say you were hungry and asked me to call him in? Why didn't you arrange for him to buy food?"
Huo Qinghuai said calmly, "I just said that."
No matter what, Ji Jin understood Huo Qinghuai.
If he just wanted to buy food, there was no need to say anything mysterious in his ear.
He must have asked Pojun to do something else.
Just now he asked her to go to the door and shout Pojun just to get her away.
Then tell her what Gu Chenxu said, she couldn't listen.
Perhaps Huo Qinghuai's situation was much more serious than she knew.
"Huo Qinghuai, what are you hiding from me?"
"No."
Huo Qinghuai quickly denied it, "I just have something that needs him to take care of. He will ask other people to buy me food. I can't arrange everything. If I do that, won't all my subordinates be exhausted to death?"
"They have been with me for many years and they know what to do and what not to do."
Ji Jin was persuaded.
That's true.
Due to the nature of Huo Qinghuai's job, some things are confidential and cannot be said directly.
But she always felt that something was wrong.
Gu Chenxu suddenly said, "He will be no different from a paralyzed person in the future. He will need care for everything from eating and drinking to defecating and urinating. Are you sure you can handle it?"
Ji Jin was thinking something was wrong, and when he heard that, he thought Gu Chenxu was talking to Huo Qinghuai. It took him a while to realize what was going on.
"I can. I will take care of him forever."
"He won't need to be taken care of for a long time. When my sister-in-law comes, he will be able to move around. Then he won't need help eating, drinking, defecating or urinating."
"Gu Chenxu!"
Huo Qinghuai finally threw away his composure and said, "You're really annoying. No wonder your sister doesn't want to pay any attention to you."
Gu Chenxu's face was originally cold, and now it looked even more stern.
The temperature in the ward dropped by several degrees.
Ji Jin was frightened and moved to the side.
Huo Qinghuai glanced over and saw Gu Chenxu, his brows also drooped.
"If you know where it hurts, you'll have some sense of proportion."
Gu Chenxu turned and left.
Huo Qinghuai's gaze fell on Ji Jin's face, and his brows softened. "Are you scared?"
Ji Jin shook his head and sat down beside the bed.
The nurse came in shortly afterwards and removed the catheter.
He gave Ji Jin some instructions on what to pay attention to.
Ji Jin wrote them down one by one.
After the nurse left, she said to Huo Qinghuai, "If you have anything to say, tell me. Don't be too proud or ashamed of some things."
"Just think of me as a caregiver."
Huo Qinghuai's Adam's apple rolled, "I can hire a nurse, I have so many people, Ji Jin, I don't actually need you to take care of me here."
Ever since he woke up, he has been trying to drive her away.
That's not his style at all.
Even though he had pestered her like that before and she had said so many excessive things, he still treated her the same.
Why is it that this time when she stayed to take care of him, he started to distance himself from her?
To sum up, Ji Jin guessed that his condition must be more serious than she knew.
"Huo Qinghuai, have you noticed that you are always in control of the pace of things? It was the same with me before, and it is still the same with me now."
"How come you've never thought of respecting me?"
Huo Qinghuai was speechless, not knowing how the conversation ended up on this.
"All those years when you were nice to me, you only treated me like a sister. So when I confessed my feelings to you, you unilaterally used the cold shoulder on me, thinking that our relationship couldn't be anything more than that of siblings."
"Later, you thought you had seen through my own heart and realized that I no longer liked you. You then started pestering me again. I rejected you, but you became even more aggressive."
As Ji Jin spoke, she wanted to cry again. She paused and swallowed the bitterness in her heart.
"Now you feel like you can't take care of yourself and you're seriously injured. You don't want me to see your vulnerable side, and you don't want me to take care of your food, drink, and toilet. You feel like you've lost your dignity as a man, so you're trying to drive me away."
"Say those unpleasant things."
"Huo Qinghuai, you have been in a high position for a long time, I can understand the way you do things."
"There's no point in being sentimental. Your approach won't work, you know."
“…”
Huo Qinghuai has always known that he was wrong.
He also tried his best to make amends.
But the pain in his heart could not be cured, and it became even more serious when he felt that she no longer loved him.
But, it was his own fault that caused her feelings for him to gradually fade away.
But in the end, it was he himself who broke through the defense.
"That's not what I meant..."
His pale explanation.
Last night, when I rescued the beauty, I did have selfish motives. I wanted to win her sympathy and get closer to her.
He really has nowhere else to go.
She won't eat anything, soft or hard, or soft or hard.
But later, he felt that this method was tasteless.
It's the same as forcing her and coaxing her before.
So he told her not to remember the favor.
"I do want to save face, but I'm not disrespecting you. I just feel that since we're no longer ex-husband and wife, there's no reason for you to take care of me."
"You can stay in the ward, but some things should be left to professionals."
Ji Jin felt that the meaning of his words was still the same.
She thought about it and felt that there was no point in talking too much to Huo Qinghuai.
He was injured because of her, and she took care of him and did what she was supposed to do.
"I'm making my position clear. I won't leave, no matter what you say."
"If you think I'm not professional, I can hire a nurse and I'll assist the nurse."
"I don't want to say anything else, just take a rest."
"If you don't want to rest, just wait for Pojun to come back with food."
Huo Qinghuai's thin lips moved again and again, but in the end he couldn't say a word.
