Forced Marriage: The Evil CEO Hubby - C177

Du Yanqing opened her hazy eyes. The blinding light caused her to raise her hand to block the light in front of her. Before she could get used to it, the light in front of her dimmed. She slowly lowered her hand and looked up. Only then did she realize that the person who helped her block the light was Lu Juyan.

In that instant, Du Yanqing’s emotions became slightly complicated for a moment. Not knowing what kind of emotions she should express, she chose to say nothing. Without waiting for her mind to regain consciousness, Lu Juyan had already come over. She straightened her body a little bit and placed the pillow upright so that the bed was a little higher.

“Better?”

After finishing a series of tasks, Lu Juyan asked in an extremely gentle tone, his deep eyes revealing his concern and gentleness towards Du Yanqing. Noticing that Du Yanqing’s thin and dry lips were slightly pale, he picked up a cup from the side of the bed and personally poured a cup of water for Du Yanqing’s lips.

All sorts of care caused Du Yanqing to be stunned at that moment, and he allowed Lu Juyan to raise the angle of the cup. Feeling the cool water sliding into her mouth, she felt that the water was exceptionally sweet.

“Hungry?”

After drinking to the end, Lu Juyan then put the cup back to its original position. When his gaze landed on Du Yanqing’s body again, he noticed that she had not flushed. The doctor’s warning once again surged into Lu Juyan’s mind, causing him to subconsciously open his mouth to ask.

These words caused Du Yanqing to come to her senses, and after inspecting around, she realised that she was in the hospital’s ward. Seeing this concerned man waiting for her, a sliver of anger rose from the bottom of his heart and he sat up straight. He threw the pillow behind him onto Lu Juyan’s body, and said unhappily: “Get out of here!”

An inexplicable anger caused Lu Juyan to be at a loss of what to do. He received the pillow and before he could even react, Du Yanqing threw the second pillow over to him. The anger in his eyes was not concealed at all, which allowed him to gradually come to a realization why Du Yanqing was so angry.

“Alright, I’ll go out. Have a good rest!”

Lu Juyan avoided getting too angry, and without hesitation, he agreed to this compulsory request. He couldn’t bear to look at her, so he put all the pillows on her bed, turned around, and left the ward. He felt slightly helpless in his heart, but he had no choice but to do something.

When Lu Juyan walked out of the sickroom, the anger at the bottom of his heart calmed down a little. He put the pillow behind him and leaned against it. Closing her eyes, she pressed the acupuncture point on the bridge of her nose. The smell of disinfectant on the tip of her nose gradually dissipated, allowing her to feel a little better.

“Are you still afraid of the heavy rain? Do you still have short hair and love to talk about love’s fairy tales on such a boring afternoon …”

The phone on the bedside table suddenly rang, causing Du Yanqing to open his eyes. He turned his body and picked up the phone, seeing that the contact person on the screen was Lin Zining. With a smile, he pressed the answer button.

“Cheng, I’m back from my trip. How was it? Did you miss me?”

Once the call connected, Lin Zining carried her back and shared her experiences from the past few days. The more she felt that the domestic environment was suitable for her to live in, the more she felt the changes within, and the more she missed the sights of the past.

Du Yanqing heard the slightly tired, yet happy tone of voice coming from the phone. The corner of her mouth raised into a faint smile. Towards this kind of journey that lacked time, she could only be met with luck and not sought, thus she couldn’t help but feel envious towards Lin Zining.

Only after the two of them had finished reminiscing about old times, did Lin Zining remember that his main reason for finding Du Yanqing was to meet with her first, and then prepare to go abroad to settle the remaining matters.

“I’m at Minde Hospital …”

Seated on the sickbed, Du Yanqing looked at the surrounding white, and sighed silently in his heart. Towards Lin Zining’s inquiry, she really wanted to deny the current situation, but she didn’t want to hide too much from him.

Without waiting for Du Yanqing to finish speaking, Lin Zining’s heart tightened. He was worried that something big had happened to her.

As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately hung up the phone, completely not allowing Du Yanqing to explain her small situation clearly. As he drove the car to the road near the Ming De Hospital, his hands that were holding onto the steering wheel started to sweat from worry about Du Yanqing.

Lu Juyan, who had been standing outside the door all this time, did not dare to move too much. He even got a nurse to help him buy a bowl of nutritious porridge, preparing to send it in later as an apology.

The young nurse handed the things over to Lu Juyan, he then opened the door and walked in with the bowl of warm congee. Without waiting for Du Yanqing to speak, Lin Zining pushed open the door and said softly: “QIng QIng, Big Sis is here.”

Her voice was very high-pitched, and her candid personality made her feel relaxed. Walking into the ward, he felt slightly awkward as he looked at a stranger in the room that he did not know. However, he unconsciously stopped looking at the man and a look of amazement flashed across his eyes.

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Lin Zining coughed lightly, and then pretended to be reserved as he walked to the side of Du Yanqing’s bed. Blinking generously and knocking against her shoulder, he raised his eyebrows slightly and teased next to her ear in a low voice, “Tsk, your eyesight isn’t bad.”

Du Yanqing, who had been teased, was shocked. His heart once again uncontrollably beat when he saw Lu Juyan’s deep gaze. He pursed his lips and looked away, pretending that nothing had happened.

Lu Juyan, who had been standing behind the two women, noticed that their relationship was not ordinary. However, he had never seen this woman before, which made him a little curious. He did not pay too much attention to the girl, he only hoped that Du Yanqing could drink a few mouthfuls of the porridge, and rest on his empty stomach. His deep eyes revealed an expression of worry and expectation, but he did not utter a single word. It was as if he was an existence of air.

Lin Zining sensed the subtle atmosphere between the two, so he coughed lightly and placed the fruit in his hand on the bedside table. With a smile on his lips, he faced Lu Juyan who was standing not too far away and indifferently asked: “What is your relationship with each other?”

“It’s not a big deal, we’re just friends!”

Du Yanqing pulled Lin Zining’s hand, allowing her to retract her gaze from Lu Juyan’s body. Complicated emotions flashed in his eyes as he hurriedly explained. Glancing at the warm porridge at the side, his stomach unexpectedly began to grow hungry.

, who carried a little doubt in his heart, did not trust Du Yanqing’s reply at all. After asking her question once or twice more, she still managed to cover it up, which allowed Lin Zining to confirm that her relationship with that man was not simple at all.
