After being reborn, the young master returned to his village and led his wife and daughters to prosp

County hospital.

It was almost midnight, and Lin Fan still hadn't returned.

While coaxing Qiao'er to sleep, Lin Shuying asked with some worry, "Mom, why... hasn't he come back yet?"

Liu Chunlian was also a little worried, muttering, "It rained yesterday, and the roads are slippery today. Could the third brother have fallen?"

Lin Shuying couldn't help but recall the scene from yesterday when Lin Fan looked at her with a pained expression and gently fed her milk by her bedside.

Four years into their marriage, Lin Shuying did have some fantasies at first.

She fantasized about how her childhood sweetheart, with whom she had grown up, would pamper and take care of her.

The two of them leaned on each other, supported each other, and lived a simple yet happy life together.

However, reality shattered all his delusions.

After marrying Lin Fan, she seemed to become invisible.

Lin Fan never paid any attention to her; what she saw most often was Lin Fan ignoring her.

There was no beating, no arguing, just complete disregard, as if in Lin Fan's eyes she was just an insignificant tool, unworthy of his attention or emotional reaction.

This feeling once suffocated her.

For four years, she has never experienced what it feels like to be cared for or pampered.

Recalling Lin Fan's gentle gaze yesterday, Lin Shuying felt a little strange, her heart beat faster, and she felt a little warmer.

However, looking at the dark night sky outside the window and Lin Fan's still absent figure, she felt lost.

Will he come back?

Or will he revert to his old ways, ignoring himself, ignoring Qiao'er, ignoring this family, and being indifferent to everything?

While she was lost in thought, the female doctor who had previously treated Lin Shuying and Qiao'er walked in.

She came to the bedside, lifted Lin Shuying's trouser leg, and began to change Lin Shuying's dressing.

Perhaps because Lin Fan wasn't in the room, she asked out of curiosity.

"Where is your husband?"

"You know what, I've been practicing medicine at this hospital for over ten years, and I've rarely seen anyone who loves his wife and daughter so much."

“He came to see me several times yesterday, repeatedly confirming whether he could cure you, and also told me to use the best medicine and the best equipment, so that you wouldn’t have any lasting health problems.”

"It's just that your body is a bit too weak. Judging from your husband's appearance, he should take good care of you. Why are you and this little girl still so thin?"

I heard the words the female doctor was muttering.

Lin Shuying forced a smile, but didn't know how to answer.

Upon hearing this, Liu Chunlian sighed softly, turned her head away, and looked at him with a complicated expression.

The female doctor was puzzled to find the room quiet.

After thinking about it carefully, I don't think I said anything wrong, right?

He raised his eyebrows, about to speak again, when the ward door was suddenly pushed open.

"I am back!"

Inside the ward, everyone turned to look at the same time.

Lin Fan stood at the doorway, carrying a large basket on his back, covered in mud, with two plump pheasants with bright colors and extremely long tail feathers hanging from his waist, his face somewhat pale.

Upon seeing this, Liu Chunlian was taken aback at first, then immediately got up to greet him, chattering, "Third brother, did you go mushroom picking?"

"You silly child, it rained heavily yesterday, and you're going up the mountain today. Aren't you afraid of falling?"

"Look at you, you've gotten yourself into this mess. Did you bring any clean clothes? Change your clothes first, and I'll help you wash them."

As Liu Chunlian muttered to herself, she took the basket off Lin Fan's back.

Lin Fan took off the things hanging on his body, took off his coat, and wiped the mud off his shoes on the steps outside the door before entering the ward.

"Mom, I'm fine, you don't need to bother, I'll wash myself later."

Lin Fan casually replied and then went to the bedside.

Seeing that Qiao'er was already asleep, Lin Fan sat down on the edge of the bed, patted her head, and then looked at Lin Shuying, who was biting her lip and staring blankly at him, and said softly, "Why aren't you resting yet?"

After saying that, without waiting for Lin Shuying's reply, he turned to the female doctor and said, "Doctor, thank you!"

"I picked some fresh wild mushrooms in my basket. They're all-natural from the mountains. You can take some home to eat later!"

The female doctor smiled and said, "Young man, you're really diligent. You picked these from the mountains, right? It must have taken a lot of effort to come and go from so far from the county town."

"You rushed back at night because you were worried about your wife, right?"

"Alright, the medicine's been changed. I don't need the mushrooms anymore. Young man, tell your wife to get some rest. I'm leaving now. Come find me if you need anything."

The female doctor left the ward with a smile.

Lin Fan didn't insist on giving her the mushrooms. After watching the female doctor leave, he looked back at Lin Shuying on the bed.

Seeing that she was still in a daze, with a few beads of sweat on her forehead and some messy hair at her temples.

Lin Fan reached out and gently tucked her hair behind her ear, asking softly, "Does it hurt?"

Lin Shuying snapped out of her daze and quickly shook her head: "It doesn't hurt much."

At the same time, Lin Fan's cheeks flushed slightly because of this subconscious little movement.

This scene might have only appeared in her dreams before.

Lin Fan seems... to have really changed!

His eyes were so sincere and so gentle.

The fingers brushing against her temples were so light, as if she were polishing a precious jewel.

But... am I her treasure?

Lin Shuying stared intently at Lin Fan.

After working in the mountains for most of the day, I still had to ride my bike back in the cold wind.

Lin Fan's hair was already a mess, like a bird's nest, and his cheeks were white from the cold.

His lips were bluish-purple, and there were still some fine dewdrops on his eyebrows.

For some reason, Lin Shuying suddenly felt a strange sensation.

Looking at Lin Fan, who was disheveled but gazing at her with deep affection, she suddenly felt a strange flutter in her heart.

"You...you come in and lie down for a while, don't catch a cold."

After a while, Lin Shuying turned her head slightly and spoke softly.

At the same time, he turned to his side and lifted the covers.

Lin Fan was stunned upon hearing this.

His eyes were full of disbelief.

After a moment of stunned silence, I was filled with excitement.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, looked at Lin Shuying, and smiled happily.

"it is good."

Then Lin Fan carefully slipped into Lin Shuying's bed.

A medicinal fragrance, mixed with warmth, immediately enveloped Lin Fan.

Lin Fan immediately felt his frozen body coming back to life.

Lying in bed, neither of them spoke, and both looked somewhat awkward.

Although Lin Fan carefully controlled himself to avoid moving around.

But soon, my cold fingertips accidentally touched a soft and delicate spot.

The next moment, Lin Shuying's cheeks flushed red.

I had just applied the medicine, and the bottom of my pants was rolled up to my thighs; I forgot to pull them up.

Lin Fan's slender, cold fingers accidentally brushed against her leg, the strange sensation making her feel somewhat ashamed.
