Chapter 269 - She is the one who is injured, not you (1/2)
”Xiaolu, promise me that I'll never see you on a hospital bed ever again.” Zhang Zhehan asked.
”I can't promise you that, Zhehan.” Li Xiaolu said with a mysterious smile on her face.
”Why?” Zhang Zhehan frowned.
Li Xiaolu blushed, ”Because you'll be seeing me on a hospital bed while I am delivering our baby for you.”
Zhang Zhehan's eyes lit up at her words and he chuckled, ”What should I do with you?”
”Nothing. You just need to love me.” Li Xiaolu answered. ”Zhehan I want to meet Auntie Qian, ” Li Xiaolu requested and before Zhang Zhehan could deny her request she told him everything.
”You know Zhehan, she saved my life. When we were in that car and our car turned over, I remember my head bumping into something hard. Before I could even get the chance to react, I saw something coming towards my face. I was so scared, Zhehan. But at that time, Auntie Qian protected me. Without even thinking about anything she put her hand in front of me and protected me which resulted in her being hurt.” Li Xiaolu trembled as she remembered whatever that in those few minutes when she was in that car. If Auntie Qian wouldn't have saved her, then her yes might have been pierced by whatever that was coming towards her. She was very thankful to Zhu Qian for protecting her.
Zhang Zhehan's heart ached as he listened to her description. ”I'm so sorry. I couldn't protect you.” He apologized holding her hand.
”Silly. You don't have to apologize. It's not your fault.” Li Xiaolu chuckled as she poked his head, ”How could you protect me? You weren't even there.”
”Still -”
”No. It's not your fault.” Li Xiaolu said firmly. She didn't want him to feel guilty over something he was not a part of. Patting the side of her bed she smiled, ”Come here. Rest for a while. You are tired.”
The whole afternoon the couple slept peacefully by each other's side. At first, Zhang Zhehan didn't want to sleep but he was forced by Li Xiaolu to take a rest. Only by being at her side could he sleep peacefully, so he slept for the whole afternoon without any worries.
As everyone knew that Zhang Zhehan was beside Li Xiaolu to take care of her, so nobody came to disturb the couple. By evening Lin Mochen arrived at the hospital, refreshed. He brought a special soup for his mother and his sister when he was informed that Zhang Zhehan was here.
Lin Mochen scowled as he held the bowl of soup in his hands outside their ward. He didn't want the piece of ice as his brother-in-law. The thing that he was most dreadful about still happened in the end. What kind of fate is this?
His sweet little sister whom he wanted to protect with all his heart from being married to this piece of ice is already married to him. He cannot accept this.
Lin Mochen glared at the door as he imagined that man sister next to his sister and he was even more depressed. Taking a deep breath, he knocked on the door. Awakened by the knocks, Li Xiaolu opened her eyes and said, ”Come in...”
”Brother Lin....” Li Xiaolu smiled when she saw Lin Mochen walking inside with a bowl in his hands. A sweet aroma was coming from the bowl and Li Xiaolu licked her lips feeling hungry.
”Is that for me? What is it?” She asked.
