Chapter 35 is truly amazing.
Chen Jingyang felt a pang of pain in his heart, and pursed his lips: "Okay, don't be angry, I'll leave now. If you need anything, just tell the nurse and I'll bring it to you."
Zhang Pengfei didn't respond. He curled himself up, his head almost buried in his chest—so that no one could see anyone else.
At one o'clock in the morning, the daytime hustle and bustle had subsided, and Chen Jingyang was in a mess. He abandoned his car and walked alone on the street.
The National Day holiday is just around the corner, and the wind blowing in our faces is already cool. The lampposts are covered with red flags, which sway left and right in the night wind, casting dim shadows on the ground.
Chen Jingyang's eyes were as dim and lifeless as those shadows, and he seemed confused, unable to understand what was wrong with him.
He had owned several dogs, but none of them made him both love and hate Zhang Pengfei like that.
He knew what kind of person he was all along, and that's why he was so dissolute and never thought about staying with anyone.
Why not just keep a few dogs for fun? Why set so many rules and restrictions for yourself?
A lifetime is a few decades long, neither too long nor too short. The first ten years are too young for one to make one's own decisions, and the next ten years are too short for one to develop fully and establish a stable foundation.
He always felt that his real life actually began at the age of twenty, which made his life seem even shorter.
Of the more than 7 billion people on Earth, how many can live according to their own wishes?
How many people can live according to their own wishes and still live happily?
He has always been determined to be one of those few!
He never thought about loving anyone; in his opinion, love was pure nonsense!
But what's his relationship with Zhang Pengfei?
Is this love?
A cool breeze swept by, making Chen Jingyang shiver suddenly.
No, no, no!
He immediately dismissed the idea.
That's definitely not love!
It's just that this dog is too special, too unique, and too attractive to him!
He only wanted to conquer him, to make him trust him unconditionally, obey him, and depend on him, body and soul!
That's all!
What he loved was never Zhang Pengfei, but the process of taming him, the exhilarating sense of accomplishment!
The distance that an Aston Martin can cover in five minutes took Chen Jingyang two hours to complete, but fortunately, those two hours were very rewarding.
Having figured out the key to it, Chen Jingyang's depression vanished. When he returned home, he saw Zhang Pengfei's cell phone on the table.
Thinking that he might want to look at his phone to pass the time when he's bored, I quickly packed a few loose-fitting clothes and took a taxi to deliver them to him.
But when he arrived at the hospital, he didn't dare go into the ward, fearing that the puppy's anger would worsen its injuries. He could only stand quietly at the ward door and watch through the window.
Zhang Pengfei was already asleep, his face was gentle, and his breathing was light. However, he seemed to still be in pain, as his eyebrows would furrow from time to time, causing his eyelids to tremble slightly in pain.
Chen Jingyang was filled with mixed feelings. The more he looked around, the more reluctant he was to leave. He stood there until dawn.
People started coming out of the corridor to use the restroom, and they would curiously look at him as they passed by the ward. Some even went to the nurses' station to ask them to keep an eye out for him, wondering if he was trying to steal something.
Zhang Pengfei was sleeping restlessly. He would wake up whenever there was a noise outside. He vaguely felt a gaze on him and turned to look at the door.
The door was closed properly, and there was nothing there.
Chen Jingyang drove at breakneck speed, first stopping at a breakfast shop to buy breakfast, and then rushing home to check on Zhang Huahua. Luckily, the little girl was still asleep.
He sat on the sofa and took a breath. His eyes hadn't closed all night and were a little sore, but he was in good spirits. That was the biggest advantage of being twenty years old—his body had a constant supply of energy to squander.
Zhang Huahua also has a lot of energy.
After a good night's sleep, Zhang Huahua was fully recovered, as if she had completely forgotten what happened last night. She only asked Zhang Pengfei one question: "Where is my brother?"
Chen Jingyang said that her brother had gone out on business, and that they would spend the next few days together, with her being picked up and dropped off at school.
Zhang Huahua was quite happy to hear this. Her big eyes blinked, and she asked him, "So, can I play on the tablet in the living room these few days?"
Chen Jingyang shuddered upon hearing this!
After dropping Zhang Huahua off, the first thing he did when he got home was to throw the tablet computer into the trash can downstairs!
Still playing?
You should be more careful!
If they keep doing this, someone will definitely die!
Zhang Pengfei was lying in the hospital, and Chen Jingyang had no interest in work, so he sat in the office slacking off.
First, we found a reputable caregiver to take care of Zhang Pengfei. Although it was Level 1 nursing care, nurses couldn't be there all the time, so we felt more at ease having someone by his side to look after him.
He had actually considered taking care of the child himself, but he was afraid that Zhang Pengfei wouldn't give him face, and it was also uncertain whether he could take good care of the child. So he simply hired a caregiver to kill two birds with one stone.
Afterwards, Chen Jingyang looked through the photos he had taken that morning. He originally wanted to send them directly to Zhang Pengfei, but he was afraid that Zhang Pengfei would get angry and block him, so he took a roundabout approach and posted them on his WeChat Moments.
The last time he posted on WeChat Moments was two years ago when he returned to China. After such a long hiatus, if he were to post photos like those right away, Chen Jingyang felt it would severely damage his aloof persona.
After much deliberation, I decided to make the post visible only to a select group, choosing only Zhang Pengfei.
Not long after Zhang Pengfei woke up, the nurse brought him his cell phone and clothes. He originally wanted to ask the court leaders for leave first, but unexpectedly, the president of the court called him personally!
They said they were worried when they learned he was sick and hospitalized, so they called to offer their condolences. Anyone with common sense would know it was all just polite talk. Then the hospital director changed the subject, telling him to rest assured and recover, and that he had already granted him a month's leave.
"Dean, a month is too long. I... I can start work after the National Day holiday."
The hospital director started to laugh it off: "Xiao Zhang, whether you can go to work or not isn't up to you, is it? You need a certificate from the hospital. Um... we'll see how things go later. Ah, that's all for now, I have a call coming in, I'll hang up."
Zhang Pengfei chuckled softly.
He was admitted to the hospital in the middle of the night, and the hospital director heard the news around six or seven in the morning. Where did he hear the news from?!
Besides, he's just a lowly intern who's only been at the court for a week. Does the court president even know who he is?!
And he even called him personally first thing in the morning to arrange his vacation?
Chen Jingyang once said that there was no one he couldn't invite, from the Supreme People's Court to the grassroots courts. It seems that this is no exaggeration!
So when he can go back to work is not up to him or the hospital, but up to Chen Jingyang!
Just as Zhang Pengfei hung up the phone, an older woman came in, saying she was his caregiver.
The woman was diligent and enthusiastic. Before Zhang Pengfei could even react, she pressed a wet towel to his face. After wiping his face, she started wiping his body without saying a word. She also kindly told him that he should go to the toilet if he needed to, and not to be embarrassed to hold it in, as she would change his urine bag promptly.
Zhang Pengfei was so embarrassed that he silently cursed Chen Jingyang's ancestors in his heart!
