Chapter 72: Drink Bitter Soup Together

 

There was only Shen Yue in the ward. When Tang Qiaoqiao came in, he seemed to be asleep with his eyes closed.

One of his feet was hung in the air. He is wearing a blue-and-white striped patient gown that could not be more ordinary, with his hair slumped softly. His hands are on his abdomen. He has a peaceful and quiet look, unlike his usual arrogant self. The current him and the usual noble son were like two different people.

However, Tang Qiaoqiao felt that at this time, Shen Yue was a bit charming.

This feeling is bad.

It must be because he almost gave up his life to save her today that she could have such an illusion. Tang Qiaoqiao reminded herself this way in her heart.

But this kind of reminder seemed useless. In her mind, Tang Qiaoqiao kept thinking about the moment when the mountain collapsed when Shen Yue stood up abruptly and rushed towards her.

The two staggered steps had already consumed a lot of his energy. But he tightly protected her under him, and disregarding his own life safety, he protected her from the turbulent mud and rocks.

At that moment, her heart almost stopped beating.

"You still said I'm stupid. I think you're the stupid one. No one will be willing to kill themselves for the sake of others." Tang Qiaoqiao muttered softly.

Shen Yue's leg rehabilitation was already at a critical moment. However, now there is a fractured bone again, which is also because of her.

After this injury, Tang Qiaoqiao felt that she was getting further and further away from realizing her original plan.

The current Shen Yue made her unable to leave him.

"Why did you give up your life to save me?" Tang Qiaoqiao touched his plastered legs and muttered to herself.

"Because I don't want to be a widower either."

Shen Yue slowly opened his eyes, and his jet-black eyes were staring straight at her.

Tang Qiaoqiao's eyes flashed a little panic, and she stuttered a little, "You, you're not sleeping?"

Shen Yue raised his eyebrows and said, "If someone has been muttering beside you, can you sleep?"

Tang Qiaoqiao was embarrassed at being caught. Her face became hot, and she said, "I am crazy to care about you. If I'm annoying you, I'll leave." Tang Qiaoqiao stood up, but Shen Yue grabbed her hand.

"You are already here. Don't go."

Tang Qiaoqiao's small face was flushed, and she tried to break free. But his hands were tightly clenched, and the heat in his palm seemed to penetrate into her skin and scald her in her heart.

"How is your hand?" Shen Yue asked softly.

"Well, there is no big problem." Tang Qiaoqiao waved her arm indifferently.

In fact, Tang Qiaoqiao was not all right. When Shen Yue threw her down, her left elbow hit a hard rock on the ground, causing a sprain of the soft tissue of her elbow.

Tang Qiaoqiao felt that it was just a minor injury, and there was no need to make a fuss. But because of the strong request of Director Chen Hao and Fang Yuan, she had to wear a bandage.

She looked at Shen Yue's hanging feet and her thickly bandaged elbows and chuckles, "We didn't become a widow and a widower, but we have become a pair of patients."

"I would rather be a patient." Shen Yue said.

Tang Qiaoqiao said in a huff, "Don't be so impulsive next time. What can you do? I think your legs might not be able to stand up until the year of the monkey."

 

[T/N: It has nothing to do with what Chinese zodiac year it is. She just meant it would take forever to heal.]

Shen Yue said casually, "I think this is good."

"I think your brain is short-circuited." Tang Qiaoqiao gave him a blank look. No one will hope to get hurt.

She looked at her hand that was still wrapped in Shen Yue's hand. His fingers were white and slender, with distinctive joints.

"I'm not leaving. Why are you still holding my hand?"

Shen Yue blinked and pulled Tang Qiaoqiao's hand to his chest. His voice was a little dull when he said, "Don't you think this atmosphere is particularly suitable for doing something?"

'What's this?'

'In the hospital, patient × patient play?'

Tang Qiaoqiao swallowed, "This illegal thing can't be done."

While Tang Qiaoqiao's brain was frantic, there was some movement outside the door.

"Madam, I really can't let you enter."

"What can't I enter my own son's ward?"

Madam Shen pushed open the ward's door regardless of Li Ji's obstruction, but she ran into Shen Yue holding Tang Qiaoqiao's hand on his chest. The atmosphere in the room was very ambiguous.

"Sorry, I'm disturbing you. You continue. Don't stop." Madam Shen gave a meaningful smile. No wonder Li Ji stopped her. She almost broke the good deeds of her son and daughter-in-law.

Madam Shen turned around and wanted to leave, leaving the space for them.

Tang Qiaoqiao pulled out her hand with a look of embarrassment.

Shen Yue said out of breath, "Mom, are you going out to hide outside the door and eavesdrop?"

Madam Shen was about to step out of the door, but she turned around and returned into the room, "Smelly boy, is your mother that's the kind of person in your heart?"

Shen Yue nodded. "Yes."

Madam Shen rushed inside, put the insulated lunch box on the table, and said angrily, "I raised you until you are so old for nothing. You are not half as filial as my daughter-in-law."

Madam Shen turned her head to look at Tang Qiaoqiao. Her face changed suddenly, and she asked, "Qiaoqiao, where is it hurt? Does it still hurt? You don't know... When I heard about this landslide at home, it almost scared me to death. So I have to rush here to see you overnight."

Tang Qiaoqiao said embarrassedly, "I just injured my elbow slightly. Nothing wrong happened."

"How can you say nothing wrong with an elbow injury? What should we do if your hands become difficult to use in the future?" Madam Shen said, "You have to lie down and rest, and you have to take care of your injured muscles and bones. Otherwise, it is easy to leave permanent damage."

Shen Yue, who hurts both his muscles and bones: ...

"I think you should care about Shen Yue. He was hurt more seriously." Tang Qiaoqiao said.

Madam Shen waved her hand and said, "It's no big deal for a big man to crack his bones a bit. Maybe it will attack poison with poison and actually heal his legs. Besides, he was injured for his wife. He should have been honored with this injury. The most important thing is your hand. You are a public figure, and also in the middle of filming, your hand injuries can be a big problem. I stayed up the whole night to especially make this nourishing soup for you. This soup also has some herbs. It's still hot. Drink it quickly."

Shen Yue has been accustomed to his mom's double standard for a long time, but Tang Qiaoqiao feels guilty.

When Madam Shen poured a large bowl of soup for Tang Qiaoqiao, she directly handed it to Shen Yue and said, "You drink first."

Madam Shen looked at her and smiled in her heart.

Tang Qiaoqiao took another bowl from Madam Shen and looked at the light soup base. She guessed that it was chicken soup or something, so she took a big mouthful.

This mouthful made her a little closer to pouting.

It's too horrible.

The taste of the soup was unspeakably bitter and astringent, and there was a hint of weird sweetness. Tang Qiaoqiao couldn't taste the ingredients in it at all.

Under Madam Shen's burning eyes, Tang Qiaoqiao swallowed the soup with difficulty. With the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Shen Yue behind Madam Shen, trying to pour the soup into the trash can quietly.

Tang Qiaoqiao raised her eyebrows. 'Good fellow, if you want to share the blessings, you have to share difficulties. Of course, you have to drink the same bitter soup.'

"Mom, it's delicious. You see how happy Shen Yue is drinking."

"Really?" Madam Shen turned her head, and Shen Yue had to raise the soup bowl to his mouth and pretend to drink it.

Tang Qiaoqiao squinted her eyes with a smile, and Shen Yue's face was painful.

'She is ruthless!'
