136 KEEP AN EYE ON HER PART 3 (1/2)
[A/N: First, let me apologize for not notifying you about the ”supernatural” part of the story. I thought since I introduced you to the Four Gods, you guys would realize that it was part of the supernatural incident. It's a mistake from my part. After you find the truth about Xue Lin, you will understand why the supernatural theme came. In truth, The Cobra and The Mongoose have dark histories as they have supernatural powers. I can't tell you about Xue Lin's truth yet. When she finds out or others find out, you will too.
Spoiler Alert: You will find out soon! ;P]
In the hospital, after being kissed on the cheek, Ge Chen resumed feeding her. Xue Lin chewed slowly and gulped it down to her throat. She suddenly thought of something and asked, ”Say Chen, how long am I forbidden to walk freely?”
”Just a month. Your wound in the right foot is serious. I can't imagine how you got this.”
”Oh, it's when I was running away and then something sharp pierced my foot. I thought I was going to die in pain. I couldn't breathe properly for a few seconds.” Xue Lin shivered at that memory. She shook her head, trying to forget it.
Ge Chen put down the bowl and lowered his head. ”I'm so sorry that I couldn't stay beside you when it happened.”
”How many times are you going to apologize? Nothing will change no matter how many times you apologize.” Xue Lin reached out and put her bandaged hand on his shoulder. ”I know you are feeling guilty but its okay now because you've brought me back and are treating me with delicious food.”
”However,” her expression suddenly changed, ”my husband, if I eat all of them and then I get the nature's call, what will happen? I can't walk, I can't use my hands either.”
Even if someone carries her to the washroom, what will she do after she does the deed? How will she clean herself? – That's what was going on in her head at that moment.
Ge Chen paused and replied, ”Nurses can prepare a pipe for you…” seeing the horror in his wife's expression he added, ”I will wash you if you want-”
”Chen! I know you mean well but I can't eat anymore!” Xue Lin quickly interrupted him. No matter how hungry she was, it vanished into thin air after she heard the word 'pipe'.
She already started to imagine the nurses trying to insert the pipe. Her face became deathly pale. She couldn't even imagine Ge Chen wiping her off. That would be even worse!!
[A/N: Xue Lin, you should learn from Mu Lan. She let herself be cleaned by Mu Liang for two weeks.]
Ge Chen frowned. ”You have to eat. You are too weak. If you don't eat, you cannot recover quickly. I believe you don't want to stay in the hospital for a whole month.”
”Though I don't like tablets, give me vitamin tablets. I think that will suffice until my hand recovers. It will take a week to heal my hands, right? Just a week, then I'll eat again.” Xue Lin desperately requested him.
Ge Chen sighed and said, ”At least finish the chicken.”
