The Fake Marriage - C166

Inside the hospital, Mu Xiaochen carefully pushed open the door to the ward.

Stretching out his hand, Su Qi’s eyelashes trembled, and her eyebrows also twitched.

He propped himself up and leaned against the headboard.

“En, I’m awake. Let’s sleep a bit more. It’s still early.”

Mu Xiaochen looked at Su Qi gently, and his face had already become a lot redder.

“Are you done with the company?”

Su Qi reached out her hand to lightly block the sunlight that was shining in from outside the window. She had just woken up, so she was not used to the strong light.

It was late autumn.

“Sleep for a while longer. I’ll wake you up to eat later.”

Mu Xiaochen stood up, walked to the window and pulled up the curtains, the light in the room instantly dimmed.

“I’m not sleeping anymore.”

Su Qi shook her head lightly.

She tried to get off the bed but accidentally pulled at the wound, causing her to scream in pain.

“Don’t try to be brave. Just lie on the bed.”

Mu Xiaochen supported Su Qi gently and sat on the sickbed, his tone was displeased.

He also conveniently propped up the pillow, allowing Su Qi to lean on it.

“I …”

Su Qi had not finished speaking.

After Mu Xiaochen heard this, he poured himself a cup of hot water and passed it to Su Qi.

“Have some water.”

Su Qi received the water and took a sip.

He then held the cup of water with both hands and looked out of the window, lost in thought.

“What do you want to say?” “Hmm?”

Mu Xiaochen bent over and tucked them in.

“The doctor said you can leave the hospital today. I’ll take you home later.”

He leaned close to Su Qi and whispered into his ear, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

“Mm. Alright.”

Su Qi raised her head to look at the man beside her.

“Speak, what did you want to say just now?” I wanted to say something, but I hesitated. ”

Mu Xiaochen looked at Su Qi and asked indifferently.

“Xiao Chen, I want to discuss something with you. I want to go back to work tomorrow. ”

Su Qi placed the cup in her hand on the small table, and raised her head to look at Mu Xiaochen with a determined gaze.

“No.”

The good mood Mu Xiaochen had just been in was swept away in an instant. The corner of his mouth drooped down and his entire person became slightly colder.

“Xiao Chen, listen to me.”

Su Qi opened his mouth earnestly with a sincere face, wanting to change his decision.

“This matter cannot be discussed. You must rest at home for two days and recuperate.”

Mu Xiaochen looked like he had nothing to discuss, and his expression became even more gloomy.

“This time, I haven’t returned to the company for so long. I haven’t studied in many places.”

Su Qi’s voice carried a tinge of sincerity.

He used his big hands to grab onto Su Qi’s hand that was holding his arm, and easily held Su Qi in her embrace.

A sudden gentleness.

Her hand gently patted Su Qi’s back.

His face was as calm as ever, and he couldn’t change his mind.

“I understand that you want to go back to the company, but you can’t do it in the next two days. No matter what the reason is, I won’t agree.”

“You can rest at home for the next two days. I’ll take care of the company’s matters, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Mu Xiaochen’s firm attitude and eyes made Su Qi realize that his decision would not be changed.

This man has always been like this?

Su Qi wanted to explain, but she had forgotten that she was still a sickly person.

However, she accidentally pulled on the wound, causing a “hiss” sound of pain to spill out from her mouth.

She did it on purpose.

“There’s no room for negotiation this time. First, take care of your body properly before getting busy with the company’s matters.”

Mu Xiaochen looked at Su Qi, his eyes filled with reproach and helplessness, but his heart was filled with endless pain.

“But …”

Su Qi still wanted to fight for him, maybe this man had changed his mind and agreed to go to the company.

But when she looked up and saw Mu Xiaochen’s uncompromising eyes, she gave up.

In order to take care of him, Mu Xiaochen’s hospital had been running errands for them.

There was a haggard look on his face. Even the green stubble on his beard had grown quite densely.

Su Qi looked at Mu Xiaochen’s dazzling little beard, his heart rippling.

“Okay, I’ll listen to you, but I want to go back to the company in two days.”

Mu Xiaochen’s face darkened. He did not speak, but Su Qi knew that he had compromised.

The sunlight just so happened to shine on Su Qi’s face, and suddenly it was not as dazzling anymore.

“Alright, I agree.”

Mu Xiaochen lifted his hand and caressed Su Qi’s smooth long hair.

Su Qi laughed faintly, looking at the gentle man in front of her, this was not an illusion.

“Xiao Chen, thank you.”

Thank you.

Thank you for your recent gentleness, even if it was just an illusion.

Su Qi did not say these words, and revealed a bitter smile.

Just like that, the two of them laughed at each other. Su Qi felt inexplicably satisfied.

At this moment, the man’s eyes were only his own.

Su Qi even thought that even if the two of them did not say anything, living together for a lifetime like this would at least be considered a sweet and blissful thing.

Suddenly, a gurgling sound came out from Su Qi’s stomach.

“I forgot, I had Zhou Guang bring you your favorite breakfast, it’s still warm.”

Mu Xiaochen turned and walked out of the ward.

After a while, he came back with two insulating barrel, as if he was performing a magic trick.

With a faint smile on his face, he nimbly took the food out from the insulating barrel and placed it on the table.

He had probably gotten used to it in the past few days.

“I’m not really hungry, I …”

Su Qi said awkwardly with a red face, her voice becoming softer and softer as she poked the blanket on the bed.

“En, I’m hungry. Let’s eat together.”

Mu Xiaochen moved the small table to the side of the bed and brought it closer to Su Qi.

“Right.” Su Qi lowered her head to reply, her voice softer than a mosquito’s.

“Eat, it’ll be cold later.”

Mu Xiaochen sent the chopsticks in his hand to Su Qi, and also picked up a lot of dishes from Su Qi’s bowl.

Su Qi took the chopsticks and buried her head into the food, looking as if she did not know what to say.

“Are you going to bury your head in the bowl?”

It was rare for Mu Xiaochen to make fun of Su Qi, and he could not hide the relaxed tone in his voice.

He didn’t know why, but recently when he was with this woman, he wanted to make her happy. Even more so, he wanted to make her laugh for his own sake.

Mu Xiaochen thought, but he did not stop there. He continued to add more dishes to Su Qi’s bowl, and in a short while, it had turned into a small hill.

“You should eat more too.”

Su Qi said as she raised her head and gave Mu Xiaochen a big bowl of food.

“Look at you, your mouth is full of food.”

Mu Xiaochen took out a tissue to wipe Su Qi’s mouth, then accurately threw the tissue into the dustbin.

Time passed by very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it seemed as though his leisurely time was exceptionally short.

Mu Xiaochen’s eyes became increasingly clear.
