Marriage is deep and affectionate: Wife, hate him!

"On the fifth day after you left, his assistant delivered these things. I wanted to ask you to come back immediately, but his assistant said that he had been buried the day before, and he forbade anyone to inform you. The assistant waits until everything is settled before handing these things over to you."

Mrs. Shen's voice was heavy, and she said all this slowly.

Li Ning bit his lip, held the document and didn't say a word.

"Why didn't he let someone notify us in time?" Shen Muzhi asked Mrs. Shen.

"The incident happened suddenly. He said that he hadn't been a good father in his life and hadn't done anything for Xiao Ning, so he wanted to leave alone. He knew that you were on vacation, so he asked his assistant to tell you not to tell you in advance. I thought that since it was his last wish, I agreed to it."

"Then did he leave any other words?" Li Ning, who was silent for a while, asked Mrs. Shen.

"The assistant only said to give these things to you, and didn't say anything else."

Li Ning took a deep breath and let it out slowly, so as to calm down a little.

"Grandma, I'm a little tired. If there is nothing else, I want to go back and have a rest."

After Li Ning finished speaking, without waiting for Mrs. Shen to speak, he got up and walked out. His movements were somewhat mechanical, like a puppet without a soul.

Mrs. Shen let out a long sigh of helplessness and distress, and said to Shen Muzhi: "Go quickly, accompany Xiao Ning, and comfort her."

"Grandma, don't worry too much." Shen Muzhi said, and got up to follow out.

In the bedroom, Li Ning sat alone on the sofa, still holding those documents in his hand.

She didn't cry or look sad, but looked at the contents of the documents one by one as if she was dealing with official business.

Shen Muzhi handed a cup of warm water to her hand, and then pressed her shoulders lightly with both hands, without saying a word.

Li Ning, who was originally calm as if nothing had happened, suddenly became a little choked up when he felt the warmth from his shoulders, and his eyes gradually blurred.

Shen Muzhi felt the slight trembling of Li Ning's shoulders, he walked up to Li Ning, embraced her in his arms, patted her back lightly, but still didn't say anything.

Under this kind of silence, it seems that something is quietly brewing, and this kind of thing is gradually melting away the strength that Li Ning tried his best to pretend.

This kind of silence didn't know how long it took, Li Ning in his arms went from being stiff at first to completely relaxed leaning against him, Shen Muzhi gently lifted Li Ning's shoulders, only then did he realize that she had fallen asleep.

Li Ning's eyes and cheeks were red, a blood spot was bitten on his lower lip, and a large area of ​​his clothes was already wet.

Shen Muzhi sighed deeply, gently picked up Li Ning, put her on the bed, and guarded her all night long.

When Li Ning woke up again, she only felt some swelling and pain in her eyes, her head was also swollen, and there seemed to be no comfortable place in her whole body. A kind of soreness that was stolen from her bones made her realize that she should be sick up.

Li Ning raised his hand to touch his forehead, but when he raised his hand, he found that the back of his hand was pierced with an IV.

"Wake up, don't move."

Shen Muzhi supported Li Ning's hand and put it back, and pulled the quilt for her.

"I am..."

When Li Ning opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse, and his throat hurt as if it had been scratched by a sharp object.

"I had a fever at night, and I wanted to take you to the hospital. Dr. Zhao happened to be at home, so I asked him to come over and check you up. If it wasn't serious, I asked him to give you a drip. I took your temperature just now, and the fever has subsided. It’s been a lot, you should take a good rest, sleep and wake up, everything will be fine.”

Li Ning looked at Shen Muzhi, and found that he hadn't seen him overnight, his cheeks were covered with blue stubble, and he looked much haggard.

Shen Muzhi has always paid the most attention to his appearance, even at home, he has never been sloppy at all. Li Ning has been married to him for so many years, and he has never seen such a haggard look in his memory.

Thinking about it, she suddenly remembered that she had seen it once before. It was the last time she was physically unwell after being raped by Li Ran at the birthday party. At that time, Shen Muzhi also looked haggard.

Li Ning suddenly smiled, she was considered lucky, except for the two times when she lost her composure, it was all because of her.

"make you worry"

Shen Muzhi gently touched Li Ning's cheek, "You're talking nonsense again." Would you like some water?are you hungry? "

"I want to drink water." Li Ning said hoarsely.

Shen Muzhi immediately took the water glass, then helped Li Ning to stand up, let her lean in his arms, and personally fed her a small cup of warm water.

"The porridge is always warm in the kitchen. Do you want a drink or something to eat? Let someone prepare it for you." Shen Muzhi put down the water glass and asked softly.

"I'm not hungry, I just want you to be with me."

As Li Ning said, he leaned sideways on Shen Muzhi's arms.

"I've always been with you, not going anywhere." Shen Muzhi hugged Li Ning, and kissed her forehead lightly.

The two were silent for a long time, until Shen Muzhi thought that Li Ning had fallen asleep again, then she opened her mouth.

"what time is it now?"

"It's past ten o'clock."

"The children are already up."

Shen Muzhi smiled helplessly, "I'm sick, and I'm still thinking about the child. They came to see you in the morning, and the two children have been lying on the bedside and refused to leave, but grandma managed to call them out."

"Refused to leave?"

"It's the first time I've seen you sick, so I'm worried."

Li Ning listened, and couldn't help but twitched the corner of his lips slightly, "My sudden illness frightened the child."

"Don't think about anything else, take a good rest, and you'll get better soon."

Li Ning nodded and did not speak again.

The husband and wife seemed to have a tacit understanding, and neither of them wanted to mention that matter.

But Shen Muzhi is very clear that it is impossible to avoid talking about that matter all the time, it has to be faced all the time, and if you keep suppressing it and bring it up, instead, these negative emotions will accumulate more and more, and when they reach the critical point, they will explode. The consequences are more difficult to control.

"The matter of the father-in-law...it happened suddenly."

Shen Muzhi tentatively brought it up, paused, seeing that Li Ning didn't react too aggressively, and then continued.

"I've already called his assistant to ask about it. My father-in-law should have known about his situation a long time ago. Everything has been arranged before. The sudden onset of the illness didn't cause any pain, and he passed away peacefully."

"Hmm." Li Ning responded sullenly.

"After you recover, let's take the child and go to worship together."

"Ah."

Li Ning replied again, this time with a nasal sound.

Shen Muzhi hugged her tightly, "Cry if you want to cry, say whatever you want, in front of me, you don't need to be strong."
