Chapter 344 Painful Memories
Yan Zhixu pushed open the ward door and immediately saw Liang Liangwei standing by the window, pulling back the curtains.
Sunlight streamed in, making the ward bright.
Hearing the noise, Liang Liangwei turned around, saw him, and smiled.
"reached?"
Yan Zhixu put down the coat he was carrying, watched the woman approach him, and gently stroked a strand of her hair.
"You weren't even awake when you called me? How come you're here so early?"
Liang Liangwei: "I wanted to come and see your injury as soon as possible, do you have a problem with that?"
Yan Zhixu chuckled: "I dare not have any objections. So, shall we see now?"
Liang Liangwei looked him up and down. She had seen him as soon as he entered the room, and his walking posture didn't reveal any signs of injury.
She mimicked his gesture, stroking his bangs: "Looks like you're adapting well to your new hairstyle. Did you do it yourself this morning?"
Most people's hair gets deformed while sleeping and they have to fix it in the morning. If the technique isn't right, it can look really weird. But his fringe looks exactly the same as the one she did yesterday.
"Yeah, I just did a quick tidy-up in front of the mirror," the man said, a slight smile playing on his lips. "It's because Vivi did the job that the foundation is so good, so it's easy to maintain."
That sweet talk—
Liang Liangwei twitched her lips and glanced at Xu Chaofeng beside her, looking embarrassed.
Yan Zhixu glanced over as well, then looked back at Liang Liangwei: "Take off your clothes and let me see?"
Xu Chaofeng felt she was being redundant and quickly said, "President Yan, I'll go call someone over to give you a check-up."
He quickly left the ward and thoughtfully closed the door behind him.
With Liang Liangwei's help, Yan Zhixu carefully took off his casual clothes, revealing the shoulder injury that had been bandaged the night before.
Liang Liangwei leaned closer to take a closer look. The surrounding redness and swelling had subsided considerably, and it no longer looked as alarming as it had a couple of days ago.
But it still makes people feel sorry for her.
Liang Liangwei: "Did you apply the medicine this morning?"
Yan Zhixu was asked to sit on the bed, and slowly put on her hospital gown: "Not yet."
Liang Liangwei: "Does it hurt?"
Yan Zhixu: "If you don't move, it won't hurt."
How can you stay completely still? You have to act like a normal person in front of others, so your arms have to move up and down. And any movement will cause discomfort. That must feel really unpleasant.
A knock came at the door, and Liang Liangwei went to open it. Outside were Yan Zhixu's attending physician and several nurses, who were very polite to Yan Zhixu and carefully examined his wounds.
Doctor: "The wound is healing well, and the stitches can be removed in another two days. However, the redness and swelling in your knee are still quite severe, probably from walking too much. Try not to leave the hospital for the next few days; your muscles and bones need rest to heal faster."
Yan Zhixu nodded: "I understand, thank you, Dr. Lin."
Doctor: "You're too kind."
It was the nurse's turn to take his blood pressure and put him on an IV drip.
Liang Liangwei watched from the side and knew that the doctor's politeness towards Yan Zhixu must have been due to instructions from above.
Soon, the doctors and nurses left, and the ward became quiet again.
Liang Liangwei washed the fruit she had brought for the day and took it to the bedside.
"What would you like to eat? I'll peel an apple for you."
Yan Zhixu glanced at the fruit plate, her eyes flashing slightly: "You also bought peaches?"
There were two large, pink peaches on the fruit platter, which looked very tempting.
Liang Liangwei: "I saw you bought some once, and I figured you liked it, so I prepared some for you. Shall I peel it for you?"
Yan Zhixu's eyes widened for a moment, then she said softly, "It's my mom's favorite food."
Liang Liangwei was taken aback, and her heart clenched as she looked at him, who seemed lost in memories.
"Is it...your mother?"
Yan Zhixu lowered her brows: "Well, when I was little, my dad often bought peaches for her because she liked them. I didn't really like them, but she would often deliberately eat them to tempt me, telling me that even a powerful figure like Sun Wukong liked to eat peaches, but I didn't, and that I wasn't powerful at all. Once, I got angry and ate five or six in one go, and ended up with diarrhea..."
He couldn't help but laugh at the end.
"It terrified her, and she never dared to let me eat peaches again after that."
Liang Liangwei hadn't expected him to suddenly recall the past, especially such painful memories, and she immediately felt flustered: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought Taozi..."
Yan Zhixu looked up at her, his handsome brows relaxed, and he couldn't help but chuckle, "What are you apologizing for? Is it wrong to bring fruit out of kindness? If you're wrong, then wasn't I wrong to buy peaches at the supermarket before?"
Liang Liangwei stammered, "But it stirred up bad memories for you and made you sad."
Yan Zhixu took her hand and said softly, "It reminds me of my mother. How can it be a bad memory? Even if I don't see Taozi, I will think of them from time to time. So, you don't need to blame yourself. I'm long past the age of crying easily when I was a child. Now, when I think back, I only feel nostalgia."
Seeing that he didn't seem upset, Liang Liangwei felt a little relieved and took his hand in return.
Yan Zhixu slightly raised her chin: "Can you peel one for me?"
Liang Liangwei then took a small knife and began peeling the peaches.
Yan Zhixu leaned against the headboard, watching her movements, and asked, "It's not peach season now, where did you buy them?"
Liang Liangwei: "Naturally, there are special places to grow it. This is a special supply product, which I brought from home."
When she said "home," she meant the compound. As Commander Liang was, many of the items he enjoyed were specially supplied by the organization and were things that couldn't be bought outside.
Yesterday, Aunt Fang contacted her and said that her family had been allocated two boxes of specially supplied peaches. Commander Liang had someone send her one box, which arrived this morning. She remembered that she had seen Yan Zhixu buy peaches last time, so she thought he would like to eat them and brought some over.
Yan Zhixu joked, "It's so nice to be with Weiwei, and we can even eat special supplies. We're really lucky."
Liang Liangwei chuckled: "Of course! President Yan, you'll have to flatter me from now on, I'll definitely treat you to the best of everything!"
She thought of something and said, "By the way, could you prepare three cases of Bosch red wine for me?"
Yan Zhixu: "Little drunkard, isn't all that at home enough for you to drink?"
Liang Liangwei: "It's not for me to drink myself. I'm going to send a case to each of my two friends. I bragged to them about it last time, and they're really looking forward to it."
Yan Zhixu: "Okay, I'll have Assistant Xu prepare it in a bit, and it'll be delivered to my house tonight. Who should I give the other box to?"
Liang Liangwei glanced at him and said, "I asked my dad before if he drinks red wine. He always drinks white wine, and I want him to change his taste."
Yan Zhixu's heart skipped a beat: "You mean, when you take me back, you want me to bring Bosch red wine with me?"
Liang Liangwei handed him a peeled, smooth, and juicy peach, and smiled at him, saying, "President Yan is so smart, he understands so quickly!"
Yan Zhixu took the peach, but didn't eat it right away. She looked back at her and said, "Then I'll definitely choose the one with the best ingredients. First impressions are important, and I'm counting on it to give me points!"
