Huang Lei, who was sitting on a stool, had already started to droop his eyelids. Finally, he could not hold on any longer and fell asleep on the table next to him.
The next morning, Zhao Yuenan opened her eyes hazily and found Huang Lei sleeping beside her. Thinking that she was dazzled and hallucinating, she rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand. When she looked again, Huang Lei was still there.
"Huang Lei." Zhao Yuenan called out in surprise.
Huang Lei opened his eyes drowsily and yawned: "Doctor Zhao, are you awake?"
"Huang Lei, have you been here guarding me all night?" Zhao Yuenan raised the corners of her mouth slightly and asked shyly.
As soon as the words fell, Huang Lei's facial expression immediately became a little unnatural: "Are you thirsty? Do you need me to pour you a glass of water?"
Zhao Yuenan smiled and nodded.
Just as Huang Lei handed over the poured cup of water, the door was pushed open.
"Sorry to bother you." Seeing how thoughtfully Huang Lei took care of him, Liu Yun felt that it was a bit rash of him to go in suddenly.
"Good morning, auntie." Zhao Yuenan tightened her grip on the water cup and greeted Liu Yun politely.
"girl."
"Aunt, you can just call me Yuenan." Zhao Yuenan interrupted her.
"Yuenan, do you feel better? I'll make you a bowl of noodles with a poached egg later." Liu Yun held her hand and spoke in a very kind tone.
"Thank you, auntie. You have been taking care of me these two days. You have worked hard." Zhao Yuenan responded with a smile.
"Hey! What are you talking about? We will soon become a family, why are you being so polite to me?" Liu Yun said with a smile.
Zhao Yuenan looked at Liu Yun in confusion.
"What? Huang Lei hasn't told you yet?" Liu Yun asked in surprise.
Zhao Yuenan shook his head slightly.
"Last night, your Uncle Huang and your father decided on your marriage. Now you are the daughter-in-law of our Huang family." Liu Yun held her hand tighter, smiling from ear to ear with joy.
Zhao Yuenan's face was full of surprise. Thinking that she would have such a good mother-in-law like Liu Yun in the future, her heart felt as sweet as if it were filled with honey.
Liu Yun cast his gaze towards Huang Lei, who was standing there in a daze, and winked at him: "What are you still standing there for? Take good care of Yue Nan. I'm going to make noodles."
After Liu Yun left, the atmosphere in the room became a little awkward. Zhao Yuenan was still immersed in the joy just now and had not yet calmed down. She looked at Huang Lei with a slightly shy look.
Huang Lei didn't know what to say for a moment and reached out to touch the back of his head.
"Huang Lei, my aunt just said that last night..."
"Doctor Zhao, are you awake? It's time to take your medicine." A sudden knock on the door interrupted Zhao Yuenan's conversation.
"It's Xinyi. She brought you medicine." As Huang Lei spoke, he had already opened the door. The moment his eyes met Zheng Xinyi's, Huang Lei's eyes revealed embarrassment and panic.
"Is Doctor Zhao awake?" Zheng Xinyi asked, holding the medicine bowl.
"Wake up, wake up, come in!" As he spoke, Huang Lei left with a look of panic on his face.
Zhao Yuenan, who was sitting on the kang, stretched her neck and wanted to say something to Huang Lei, but before she could say anything, Huang Lei disappeared. The excitement she had just felt suddenly turned into loss.
"What's wrong with Huang Lei?" Zheng Xinyi asked curiously when she saw that something was wrong with him.
