The IV drip area was quiet once again, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
The silence, coupled with Wenren Chen's gaze, made Zhou Yi a little embarrassed. He scratched his head, looked around, and then, as if struck by a sudden thought, his eyes lit up. He said, "Sir, would you like some water? I'll go buy you some!"
It's hot today, and my husband has an allergic reaction again, so he should drink more water.
And hot water is best.
Hot water...
Soon, Zhou Yi remembered that she had eaten at the hospital cafeteria this morning, where hot water was always available.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi quickly said, "Sir, I'll go get you a cup of hot water."
After saying that, she quickly left the IV drip area to pour hot water for Wenren Chen.
Wenren Chen sat there, watching the person run away quickly, as fast as a little rabbit, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
She wasn't running away in panic; she just wanted to bring him hot water as quickly as possible.
He stared outside for a long time.
The figure had long since disappeared, but he continued to watch.
After a long while, he withdrew his gaze, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes.
The uncles and aunties in the cafeteria all knew Zhou Yi. It was because Zhou Yi was sweet-talking and very polite, so when she went to the cafeteria, she asked them for a paper cup and got a cup of hot water.
Wenren Chen opened his eyes as he heard the careful footsteps approaching from afar.
Zhou Yi took a cup of boiling water, which she handled very carefully, blowing on it as she walked.
Seeing that Wenren Chen had opened his eyes and was looking at her, she quickly took two steps and sat down next to him: "Sir, I poured you a cup of hot water, but it's a bit hot now. Let me blow on it to cool it down."
After saying that, she pouted and blew into the cup: "Whoosh~ Whoosh~"
Wenren Chen didn't say anything, but his eyes were fixed on those pink lips that were pouting as they blew on the water in the cup.
White mist rose from the water, but it was blown away by her.
Zhou Yi blew on the water and touched the glass. When she felt it wasn't so hot anymore, she brought the water to Wenren Chen's lips: "Sir, please take a sip and see if it's still hot."
"But it shouldn't be hot anymore."
"Ah."
Wenren Chen stretched out his hand, which wasn't hooked up to an IV drip, took the cup from Zhou Yi, and drank a sip of water.
Seeing his expression, Zhou Yi asked, "Sir, is it hot?"
"Not hot."
Zhou Yi relaxed and said with a smile, "Then you drink it, and I'll get more if you're not full."
Wenren Chen drank water slowly and deliberately, sip by sip, just like when he dined, displaying a refined and noble demeanor.
When he finished drinking the glass of water, Zhou Yi immediately took the empty glass and said, "Sir, would you like more?"
"No need, that's enough."
"Ok."
Zhou Yi held the cup, a smile on her face.
She looked at the medicine bag, then took out her phone to check the time.
Let's see what time it is now.
Half a bag of medicine has already been used.
But there was still a small bag left. She calculated when it would be ready and when they could go back, then called Aunt Dong to ask Yu Yu.
Thinking this, Zhou Yi took out her phone. The screen lit up, and a missed call came into her view.
Third Aunt.
Upon seeing these two words, Zhou Yi was taken aback, and then quickly called her third aunt back.
She had silenced her phone beforehand because she was afraid of disturbing her husband, so she didn't know when her aunt called.
"beep……"
The call connected quickly.
Zhou Yi gripped her phone tightly, listening to the beeping sound, the image of her third aunt leaving that day flashing through her mind.
I wonder if my third aunt's chicken has been found.
"Zhou Yi, where are you now?"
The call connected very quickly, and Li Jiahong's loud voice came through the receiver instantly.
Li Jiahong's voice was very anxious, and it was clear that something was wrong.
Zhou Yi's heart tightened immediately, and she said, "Third Aunt, I'm at the hospital right now. I'm sorry, I had something to do just now, so I put my phone on silent and didn't hear your call. Is something wrong? What is it?"
Zhou Yi quickly informed Li Jiahong of the general situation on her side.
Li Jiahong had already guessed that Zhou Yi was in the hospital, so she called Zhou Yi but he didn't answer, so she stopped calling.
Upon hearing Zhou Yi's words, Li Jiahong immediately exclaimed, "You silly child!"
"How could you tell your boss about your family matters? It's just a few chickens missing, what's the big deal? Just consider it a loss to avoid further trouble. Why did you make such a fuss and have your boss send someone to install surveillance cameras?"
"Your boss works very hard and earns money with difficulty. He has to support all of you employees, and now he has to help you with your family matters. No matter how good your boss is, you can't treat him like this!"
"Your aunt will come to the hospital to pay for the surveillance footage later. Give it to your boss, and don't let your boss worry about it anymore."
"It's not easy to find such a good boss, you must cherish it!"
Li Jiahong launched into a tirade against Zhou Yi, leaving Zhou Yi dazed and confused. She opened her mouth, trying to speak several times but couldn't get a word in edgewise.
After Li Jiahong finished speaking, Zhou Yi finally had a chance to speak, but Zhou Yi didn't know what to say at first.
"No, the surveillance footage...I..."
She hadn't told her husband about the surveillance cameras at all. In fact, she was planning to wait until tomorrow to buy them with her brother and have him and the staff install them at her aunt's house.
How does the husband know about his third aunt's family affairs? And how does he know she wants to install surveillance cameras?
They even arranged for someone to install surveillance cameras at Auntie's house.
Countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Yi's mind in an instant, impossible to sort out, but she looked at Wenren Chen beside her who was watching her.
Her lips parted, as if she wanted to ask the gentleman what was going on.
But when you meet those deep eyes, it's as if there's a stabilizing force within them; the moment you see those deep eyes, all your instability vanishes.
Zhou Yi's lips moved, then she looked away to respond to Li Jiahong.
But just as she was about to speak, Li Jiahong's voice came from the phone: "What do you mean it isn't? Your boss just sent someone to install the surveillance cameras. It took them an hour or two to install, and then they left. They wouldn't listen to anything we said, they just kept saying it was the boss's order."
"If you don't tell your boss that your third aunt's house is missing chickens and that you need to install surveillance cameras, will your boss send someone over? Is your boss just bored and has nothing better to do?"
"Your boss values you and thinks you're doing a good job, that's why he treats you so well. But you can't take advantage of that and make unreasonable demands or try to take advantage of him. That's wrong!"
"Anyway, I'm coming right now. You wait for Third Aunt at the hospital and don't go anywhere."
"Your third aunt definitely needs to talk to you about this, that's all!"
Snapped!
Li Jiahong hung up the phone decisively.
Zhou Yi's lips were parted, but she couldn't utter a single word.
The phone kept ringing with busy signals, and Zhou Yi could only hear her aunt's words from earlier. She was stunned.
Her husband has already helped her a lot, so why would she ask him to install surveillance cameras at her aunt's house? Besides, this kind of thing has nothing to do with her husband.
She wouldn't do something like that.
Therefore, the problem falls on the gentleman.
How did the husband know she was going to her aunt's house to install surveillance cameras? And why did he order someone to install them without her knowing at all?
Zhou Yi took off her phone and looked at Wenren Chen.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that those deep eyes had closed at some point.
Zhou Yi's lips parted, but the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
Just a moment ago, I saw that the gentleman's eyes were open, but now he has closed them.
Is the gentleman asleep?
