Luo Lan looked at her and smiled gently. She lay down beside him with her clothes on, trying to move her legs as far out as possible from the bed, for fear that she would touch his wound after falling asleep.
Before closing her eyes, she kept giving instructions,
"When you feel pain, or call me at midnight, you must wake me up and I will give you a painkiller injection, otherwise you will not be able to bear it."
Leng Yu raised his hand, covered her with the quilt, and replied gently, "I understand." He was about to tell her to go to sleep quickly, but he heard her soft breathing.
Seeing her fall asleep so quickly, his heart ached and his eyes reddened. Why was this woman so nice to him? Why didn't she despise him, a paraplegic?
He stared at her face in a daze, raised his hand, wanting to touch her face, but was afraid of disturbing her sleep. After hesitating for a moment, he put his hand down again.
Looking at her jade-white face and listening to her gentle breathing, Leng Yu felt indescribable feelings in his heart. If this woman could stay with him forever, he would rather lie paralyzed like this, although this idea was very selfish.
During the three years he was paralyzed in bed, he understood a truth. He used to be arrogant and confident. Because he was highly regarded by his father since childhood, he did not like to get close to others and did things his own way. As a result, there was no one around him who got along with him. So after he got into trouble, there was no one who added icing on the cake, no one who came to help him in his time of need, only people who took advantage of his misfortune and mocked him.
These three years were like a three-year nightmare for him, but they also made him change many of his ideas.
During the first year he was paralyzed in bed, he hated those who harmed him so much that he wanted to tear them into pieces. His heart was filled with hatred every day.
In the second year after he was paralyzed in bed, the object of his hatred became himself. He hated his own stupidity for being easily framed.
In the third year, he hated himself for dying early, as death would bring him liberation.
It wasn't until this woman appeared that hope was rekindled in his heart.
If she wasn't there, he would just quietly wait for death, not thinking about hatred, not thinking about anything else, and even unwilling to open his eyes to see this world that he hated.
He finally couldn't help but raise his hand and gently stroked her face which was as soft as egg white. He moved his head closer lovingly and slowly moved his lips closer, leaving a gentle kiss on her forehead.
He never thought that he could feel so sorry for a woman. He was grateful for her appearance and for saving him when he was on the verge of death.
If he could stand up again, he would definitely protect this woman with his life and would never let her suffer any harm again.
As night fell, the breathing of the woman beside him became even and sweet, and Leng Yu fell asleep in a trance.
In the middle of the night, Leng Yu felt the pain in his leg wound again. He was sweating profusely but still trying hard to control it. When the pain was unbearable, he bit the quilt hard, fearing that he would shout and wake her up. He wanted her to sleep a little longer.
He endured like this until dawn, until he was exhausted.
When Luo Lan opened his eyes, his face was distorted, his eyes were closed, and he was twisting his waist with gritted teeth. Only by moving in this way could he distract himself from the pain in his legs.
Seeing this scene, Luo Lan hurriedly stood up and started to prepare the painkillers while apologizing.
"I'm sorry, I fell asleep. I should have given you a painkiller in the middle of the night. It's all my fault. Are you in pain?"
When Leng Yu looked at her, his expression suddenly calmed down. He didn't want her to see that he was in pain.
He shook his head slightly and uttered a few words weakly, "I... don't feel any pain..."
While Luo Lan was giving him a painkiller, he scolded:
"It would be strange if it didn't hurt. Didn't I tell you to wake me up at midnight or when you were in pain? Why didn't you listen?"
"I...just felt the pain too, and you happened to wake up."
Luo Lan didn't believe it at all and pushed the medicine into his butt, then began to mutter,
"I'm a doctor. I understand your situation. The painkillers only last for three hours. I predicted you'd be in pain by midnight, but you'd rather endure it than call me. Are you crazy?"
Listening to her scolding words, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He liked listening to her talk, which was as beautiful as the song of a lark.
She changed his diaper and tucked him in, then sat on the edge of the bed, took his arm, and prepared to massage him, but he looked at her in confusion.
"It's all healed, why are you still rubbing it?"
She kneaded it gently and said:
"I'm free anyway, so a massage like this will definitely help. I can give you a leg massage once your leg injury gets better."
"But..." He pursed his lips and looked at her, "But I'm hungry."
Are you hungry?
Luo Lan suddenly laughed. She had forgotten that she hadn't given him the nutrient solution last night. He hadn't eaten anything since before the operation. It would be strange if he wasn't hungry. But she still joked:
"Don't you know you're hungry? How could you be hungry?"
As she spoke, she had already stood up and said, "Wait, I'll get you something to eat."
After she finished speaking, she went outside to ask A Cai to go to the kitchen to get some porridge. She also took the opportunity to stretch her legs outside and exercise her waist.
In her previous life, she not only liked to study medicine, but also liked dancing, singing and playing badminton.
But in this life, I have no hobbies at all and I just spend the whole day with this guy Leng Yu.
She thought to herself that when he recovered, she would punish him by making him play badminton with her.
Just as I was thinking about it, Ah Cai came back happily with a tray.
"Princess, the porridge is here. The two mothers-in-law in the kitchen have been paying close attention to it recently. They have been keeping the porridge warm for you and your husband. There are also eggs."
Luo Lan took the tray from her and smiled at her:
"Look at how happy you are. I heard Ah Hong practicing sword in the backyard. You should go and practice for a while. You don't have to stay here all day. Learn martial arts well. It will be very useful in the future. Just leave Ah Hou alone at the door."
She brought the porridge to Leng Yu. Leng Yu wanted to get up, but she stopped him.
"You just had surgery on your leg, and you're afraid of stretching it, so you can't sit. I'll feed you."
After that, she brought the spoon to his mouth. He tried to take the spoon himself, but was stopped by Luo Lan.
"Open your mouth, or I'll get angry."
This sentence worked best for him, and he opened his mouth obediently.
As she fed him porridge, she said, "By the way, that little bastard prince came again yesterday, but I pissed him off."
When he mentioned the prince, a dark look flashed across the depths of his eyes.
Luo Lan knew that he would definitely be unhappy if she mentioned this person, so she added:
"But don't worry, you'll have plenty of opportunities to deal with him in the future."
"It's not just him."
Leng Yu pulled a bitter smile from the corner of his mouth, "There are a lot of people I want to deal with..."
"I know, but you can't be impatient. By the way, I saw Prince Xi a few days ago."
When Prince Xi was mentioned, his expression improved a lot, and he said with a bitter face:
"He is the person closest to me and the person I trust the most."
