C35 (1/2)
To earn money from others, one had to listen to their words.
Despite his unwillingness, Secretary Liu stayed the night at the foot of Shen Liangxia's bed.
Shen Liangxia wasn't that serious, she just occasionally spoke a few words in her sleep.
Secretary Liu did not dare to sleep. She kept her eyes open until dawn. Thinking about it, she felt sad. A top student who graduated from Columbia University was now keeping watch for a little girl. There was really no way to reason with him.
On the other hand, Shen Liangxia was very embarrassed to see her napping at the foot of the bed when she woke up, so she apologized profusely.
Secretary Liu naturally wouldn't argue with her and also knew what to say: ”The boss doesn't trust you to sleep alone. He really wants to stay here by himself, but he's afraid that if word of this got out, it would affect you, so he made me stay here.”
Look, this old man is just so awkward. He clearly cares about you and wants to stick by your side, but he still has to take your reputation into consideration. Don't spend the night in the same room as you.
Secretary Liu carefully observed the expression of the little girl on the bed, but he didn't see anything. The little girl looked at the sky outside, and then looked at the time.
Thinking about how many things he had to do today, Secretary Liu did not want to be polite with her. He took off his jacket and laid on the bed.
Shen Liangxia washed her face and came out to find that she had fallen asleep.
Ye Zichen took out his phone and purse, then tiptoed out. She wanted to go to the hospital to check up on her grandma.
Ye Zichen walked to the door, but didn't want to be startled by the man guarding the door.
”Xiao Bu Dian is so enthusiastic?”
When the man saw her, he was slightly surprised and a little worried. ”What happened? Did you sleep well?”
He was still wearing the same clothes he had worn the night before, and his tie was the same one he had worn yesterday. There were faint red veins in her eyes.
Shen Liangxia suddenly had a conjecture, ”You haven't slept the entire night?”
”I'm worried. It's better to guard this place.”
The old man's personality was a bit stubborn. His face was a bit flushed, and his expression was a bit shy. He quickly changed the subject, ”Are you going to the hospital? I'll accompany you.”
”Xiao Yan is too kind …” Shen Liangxia called out to him, and her expression was complicated: ”If you do this, I won't be able to repay you in any way.”
He was still worried about having someone stand guard inside, and he still wanted to stand guard at the door.
This sort of extreme care actually made Shen Liangxia's heart especially flustered, to the point that she even slightly rejected it.
She felt that Xiao festivity shouldn't be this kind of person. This kind of Xiao festivity was too different from the cold, serious, and aloof Xiao festivity that she saw for the first time. It even made her suspect that this man had changed.
”I didn't ask for your return. You're my woman, that's enough.”
An old-fashioned, stubborn old man.
Shen Liangxia found that she was completely unable to refute this reasoning.
The fact that the man had already been confirmed could not be changed.
His appearance, Shen Liangxia couldn't bear to see him just like this, following her to the hospital. He pushed people to wash his face, brush his teeth, and shave. Only then did the two of them get into the hospital's car.
Perhaps it was because he was tired after seeing that she was alright, but the man actually fell asleep and rested his head on her shoulder.
Shen Liangxia bit her lips and pushed him a bit, but she didn't dare to move. Thinking about it again, this man had stayed up all night for her sake, so she changed her extended hand to support the man's shoulder.
The car stopped in front of the hospital's entrance. Without waiting for Shen Liangxia to call for help, Xiao Bu Dian woke up. He opened his eyes for a split-second in a daze before regaining his clarity.
He got off the car, opened the door, and led the way into the hospital, heading straight for the ICU.
As the elevator rose, the man's presence was so strong that the two bodyguards dressed in black behind him became a backdrop.
The two of them were too close, and the man was holding her in his arms. Shen Liangxia silently cursed. He obviously cared about her reputation, but as long as the two of them were together, the man would always be close to them.
The old man couldn't understand him.
He slightly moved away, but was pulled back by the man. Their gazes met and the man's smile was gentle and lovable.
Shen Liangxia replied with an awkward smile.
He was still unconscious. However, the situation didn't look too bad. The main physician hurriedly rushed over after returning home for a nap. Upon seeing the duo, he explained the situation to them.
Standing guard outside the ward's door, she really couldn't do anything. Shen Liangxia ordered her men to go back and rest. She wanted to stay here by herself, but was rejected by Xiao Ming.
A man's heartfelt feelings were the best love words. ”How can I let you stay here by yourself?”
He really did not want to see the lonely and helpless appearance of the little girl again.
”You have to go back and rest.” The little girl frowned. She didn't even realize the worry and heartache in her eyes.
The man smiled and pulled her close to him, making her sit down. ”What if you're really worried about me?” He reached out to smooth the space between her eyebrows. ”Just let me lean on this for a nap.”
He was talking about the girl's shoulder.
