37 Contract Marriage (35)
At the hospital ward.
Her consciousness was slowly returning, but her unconsciousness was still threatening to take over her mind. The woman’s cold and black eyes momentarily lost focus, her long eyelashes fluttered.
Her fingers moved slightly. She could not recognize the kind of fabric that was on her skin. She could smell the light scent of disinfectant in the air. Jiang Yuan noticed that she was in a hospital ward.
She looked down and saw Gu Xichao sitting next to the bed.
His head was supported by his hand, and he was fast asleep. The pair of beautiful blue eyes were closed. His long eyelashes cast a tiny shadow under his eyes
Jiang Yuan sat up slowly.
She was very careful and didn’t wake Gu Xichao up.
Why was he there?
Jiang Yuan was a bit surprised.
It had been a long while since she saw her husband this free.
There was pain on the back of her hand. She looked down, and saw the needle that was inserted into her hand. The back of her hand was so pale that it was translucent, and her jade darkish-green veins were apparent. Thin and elegant.
Oh, she had been given an IV.
‘That hurt a little…’ Jiang Yuan commented in her mind.
She pursed her lips, then ripped off the needle without care and wanted to jump off the bed after lifting the blanket.
Gu Xichao saw that the moment he woke up.
He stood up, took a step closer, and extended his hand to catch her shoulder as he pushed her back to bed.
The man’s beautiful face was expressionless. His cherry-blossom colored thin lips were pursed, and his blue eyes were bloodshot. He looked like he hadn’t slept for a night.
“Stop it.”
After placing her back in bed, only then did Gu Xichao remove his hand and take a step back.
Looking at the IV drip that was removed by Jiang Yuan, the man frowned as his voice became serious.
“Jiang Yuan, stop your mischief.”
With that, Gu Xichao gave her a hard stare and then pulled her hand toward him to look at it carefully.
When he saw the blood coming out of the wound on her hand, Gu Xichao gave her another stare. He took the cotton ball from the table nearby and palace pressure on the wound.
Jiang Yuan pouted.
How bothersome!
?_?
Jiang Yuan pulled her hand back from Gu Xichao, but she didn’t manage to get him off.
“I want to get out of bed.”
“No,” he rejected her without hesitation.
Gu Xichao looked at her, then felt that he might have been too strict, and then he softened his tone as he asked, “What do you want?
“I’ll get it for you.”
Jiang Yuan felt her head throbbing. She looked at him coolly, and said, “I want to go to the toilet. Do you want to accompany me?”
The man’s beautiful face froze, and he seemed awkward for a moment.
Jiang Yuan could clearly see that he was blushing. When put together with that pretty face, it softened the hardness and sharpness in his eyes.
Gu Xichao raised his hand and covered his mouth as he cleared his throat noisily, his ears turning red. Then, he said, “Ahem… I’ll help you to the door.”
She didn’t reject him but looked at Gu Xichao with a faint smile.
She could see it.
The man’s ears had become even redder.
***
Jiang Yuan stayed in a VIP ward. Every ward had an ensuite washroom, and that was easier for them.
In the washroom.
Jiang Yuan’s mouth twitched as she noticed something that she could do nothing about.
Her period was here.
‘What should I do, what should I do, what should I do?’
***
Gu Xichao, who was waiting outside, suddenly saw the washroom door open, but it didn’t open fully.
Huh?
From inside, he could hear Jiang Yuan’s faint voice as if she had made a hard decision.
“Gu Xichao, can you help me buy sanitary pads?”
