Let's leave Chapter 228 aside.



Gu Yanbai………

"Alright, Zhou Mingjie, you better remember this. If I had known you'd be this cocky, I shouldn't have saved you in the first place."

That being said, if time were to return to that critical moment, he would still choose to save him without hesitation.

When the topic came up, Zhou Mingjie seemed a little hesitant. "Well, I was just saying. If your sister-in-law doesn't come, I'll feed you myself, okay?"

"Come on, you should worry about yourself first."

"Look at you, acting like a coward, still trying to take care of me. Can you even get up before you start talking?" Gu Yanbai glanced at him sideways; his injuries were much more severe than his.

Compared to losing his life, he was actually lucky to have lost both legs.

Looking at his current appearance, Yang Hongxing was filled with a myriad of thoughts.

She really wanted to give Yang Tianbao a good beating; what kind of mess had he made?

Look what you've done to them.

If Gu Yanbai hadn't reacted quickly, her child might not have had a father.

He was stunned for a moment, and a spoonful of rice was shoved directly into his nostril.

Zhou Mingjie…………

"You fed me in the wrong place. What are you thinking about so absentmindedly? Why don't I do it myself?" He braced himself on the bed frame and tried to sit up.

"Don't move. The doctor said you can't move your legs. It would be bad if the wounds reopen."

Yang Hongxing quickly came to her senses, pressed him down with one hand, and with an embarrassed look on her face, picked up a handkerchief to wipe the smear off his face.

"Okay, then be careful too. Don't spill all this soup and liquid on me. It's a hassle to wash clothes outside."

"Okay, I understand." Zhou Mingjie seems... different.

She has become more gentle and easier to talk to than before.

So, what exactly happened while she was away?

The bed next door.

"Feed me a bigger bite," Gu Yanbai said after swallowing the food in his mouth.

"Are you very hungry?" Su Nianxue did as he asked, scooping up a large spoonful of rice and stuffing it into his mouth.

"No, eating so slowly takes too much time, and your portion will get cold." Next time, let her eat first.

Su Nianxue smiled and said, "It's okay, I've been covered up the whole time, I won't be cold."

"Don't rush. You need to chew your food slowly and carefully. Eating like this can easily cause stomach problems."

"Who said that? I've always been like this since I was a kid..."

Gu Yanbai scoffed at this statement. As the old saying goes, men eat like tigers, and he had always believed it and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"My mom said it! You have a problem with that?" Su Nianxue thought of her mother. No matter how busy the family was, she would always chew her food carefully when she ate.

The answer is simple: chewing slowly and thoroughly is good for your stomach and intestines.

Her father would always say that with her snail-paced eating habits, she might starve to death if the harvest was bad and there were many people in the family.

They also said that the villagers have been eating like this for generations, and no one has ever gotten a stomach ailment.

Her mother just smiled and didn't argue with him.

The next time they ate, she still followed her own steps, and over time, Su Jianguo got tired of saying anything to her.

"How could I dare to have any objections? Okay, from now on I'll... eat slower." Gu Yanbai readily agreed; he had no choice but to give his mother-in-law face.

"Yes." Her expression turned somewhat forlorn when she mentioned her mother.

"Honey, how about this? After the baby is born, I'll take you to see her. We can also go to Luzhou for a visit while we're at it. Didn't you say you wanted to go see her?"

"Okay." This time she answered very readily.

Gu Yanbai's accident made her think a lot.

People should learn to cherish what they have.

Because once something is lost, no matter how capable you are, it may be difficult to get it back.

The three of them were the only patients in that ward.

Gu Yanbai and his wife ate and chatted, creating a very warm atmosphere.

Looking at Zhou Mingjie and the other person, Yang Hongxing was feeding them quite well, but their mouths were tightly pursed, as if they were afraid of uttering a single word.

Zhou Mingjie wanted to say something to ease the tension, but with so many people around, he really couldn't bring himself to speak.

After all, he wasn't Gu Yanbai. The couple acted as if no one else existed, indulging in their lovey-dovey ways.

Forget it, let's talk about some things when we get back!

With that thought in mind, he obediently started eating his meal again.

If you were to ask who was having the hardest time in this room, it would undoubtedly be the old man sharing the room.

His beady eyes darted around, glancing occasionally at the two young couples beside him.

Tsk tsk, she's feeding him. They're such a handsome couple, how can they be so pleasing to the eye?

He could only sigh to himself, "It's so good to be young."

Thinking back to his youth, ...

Of course, this is not what he envies the most.

What he envies most now is the pork ribs in other people's lunchboxes.

That's meat! It smells so good!

He hadn't tasted meat in a long time, and now he was almost mesmerized by the aroma.

Smelling the aroma of meat wafting through the ward, he swallowed hard several times.

I should have known better than to eat so early. Even plain white rice, with the aroma of this meat, would taste better than pickled vegetables.

After seeing that they had eaten, the old man took the initiative to chat with them again.

Zhou Mingjie turned his head to the side and asked with schadenfreude, "Old man, what exactly did you do to offend my aunt?"

Why does she hate you so much?

"Tsk tsk, giving you a light jacket to keep warm in the dead of winter, how did she even think of that? She's probably afraid you'll freeze to death!"

An embarrassment appeared on the old man's face, and he waved his hands repeatedly, "These are all the stupid things I did when I was young, let's not talk about them, let's not talk about them."

"Tell me, I'm just killing time anyway." Zhou Mingjie admitted that he only listened to the old man's embarrassing stories.

Gu Yanbai had a mocking expression on his face. Why didn't this person have any self-awareness?

How dare you laugh at others?

No matter how he looked at it, he felt that this unfortunate thing was no better than the others.

"What are you secretly laughing at?" His little expression didn't escape Su Nianxue's eyes.

How can these people be so carefree?

Even though he's injured like this, he still has the mind to care about other people's embarrassing moments.

I really don't know what to say about them.

"Are you sleepy? Why don't you go to the hotel and get some sleep? It's the same one as last time, you know the place."

I feel at ease knowing you're staying there. When she's at home, she always goes to her room for a nap after meals.

Su Nianxue shook her head, "I'm not going. If something comes up later, it won't be convenient if you don't have anyone with you."

"Okay, why don't you come to bed and sleep for a while?"

He made a move to move towards the wall, and Su Nianxue's face flushed. She quickly stopped him, "Don't move, I'll just lean against the bed and take a nap."

With so many people around, what would it look like if I slept with you?

She glanced in Zhou Mingjie's direction; she was bet that he was keeping a close eye on their movements!

Sure enough, Zhou Mingjie's eyes met hers.

Su Nianxue glared at him angrily, and he quickly looked away, pretending to have just glanced at her, and urged the old man, "Old man, tell us quickly, let us have some fun too."

Old man...
