The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

Shen Yanran was eager to see Li Zhanting, but she had only taken one step when she heard Xie Tingrui say in a cold voice, "Sir, I'm sorry, you can't go in."

Almost the entire hospital is now under lockdown by Xie Tingrui, and no one other than doctors and patients is allowed to enter.

This naturally includes Xiao Jinghao, who accompanied Shen Yanran.

Shen Yanran turned around upon hearing this and explained, "Jinghao is a very good friend of mine. I treat him like a brother. Without him, I wouldn't be here in America at all. He's not a bad person."

Xie Tingrui said with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, but I have to do this for Zhan Ting's safety."

Xiao Jinghao didn't want to put Shen Yanran in a difficult position. "Yanran, you go ahead. I won't go up. I'll wait for you in the car. Call me if anything happens."

Thanks to Xiao Jinghao's care and comfort along the way, Shen Yanran said with gratitude in her eyes, "Yes, I understand. Thank you, Brother Jinghao."

Xie Tingrui gave Xiao Jinghao a few deep looks before turning around and leading Shen Yanran to Li Zhanting's ward.

Not only were bodyguards guarding the entrance to the ward, but mercenaries were also patrolling the corridor.

Shen Yanran suddenly realized that things seemed much more serious than she had imagined.

At this point, Xie Tingrui had nothing left to hide. He whispered to her, "Sister-in-law, now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you anymore. Although Zhan Ting's surgery was very successful, he is still in a coma. We are trying to figure out what to do. Don't worry too much, he will be alright."

Shen Yanran nodded gently to indicate that she understood. "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Xie."

"It's not hard work at all. You can go in. I won't go in and disturb you." Xie Tingrui thought that Shen Yanran and Li Zhanting had such a deep relationship that they must have a lot to say. It wouldn't be convenient for an outsider like him to go in.

However, the moment she pushed open the door to the ward, Shen Yanran suddenly froze.

She had imagined all sorts of scenarios after seeing Li Zhanting, even the idea of ​​him being seriously injured and unconscious, becoming a vegetable. But she never expected to see a beautiful mixed-race woman kissing Li Zhanting.

If Li Zhanting hadn't still appeared to be unconscious, Shen Yanran probably wouldn't have been able to stay for even a second longer.

Xie Tingrui sensed something was wrong with Shen Yanran and subconsciously looked into the ward. "Elsa?"

What's Elsa doing here? Who let her in?!

Upon hearing the sound, Elsa immediately blushed and looked up at the doorway.

He thought Xie Tingrui was alone, but unexpectedly, he was accompanied by a beautiful Eastern woman.

But her intuition told her that this woman was none other than Shen Yanran, Li Zhanting's wife in China.

Judging from her expression, she must have seen what she had just done to Li Zhanting.

Elsa, however, showed no sign of guilt. Instead, she pretended nothing had happened and said, "Ray, you're here?"

Although Xie Tingrui didn't see Elsa kiss him, he knew that Shen Yanran must be upset that a strange woman was in Li Zhanting's hospital room. He quickly explained, "Um, sister-in-law, don't misunderstand. This is Elsa, she was our classmate in college. She's the one who helped me take Zhanting to the hospital."

Elsa's beautiful face revealed a smug smile as she looked at Shen Yanran and introduced herself: "Hello, I am Zhan's... classmate. My name is Elsa, but I'm sorry, my shoulder was injured while saving Zhan, so it's inconvenient for me to shake hands with you. I hope you don't mind."

"Of course I don't mind, hello Elsa." Shen Yanran wasn't stupid; she could naturally tell that Elsa was trying to assert her status as her savior and prove her importance.

After saying that, Shen Yanran took out a disinfectant wipe from her bag without any expression, gently wiped Li Zhanting's face, and said in a cold voice, "There seems to be something dirty on your face, you need to wipe it off properly."

"Really? I remember wiping him down this morning." Xie Tingrui knew that Li Zhanting had a germaphobia and didn't like strangers touching his body, so he had always been the one to clean him.

Shen Yanran said softly, "Maybe there was something unclean in the room, and you accidentally got some on your skin..."

Elsa understood the implication in her words; it was clear she was implying that her stolen kiss with Li Zhanting was dirty.

But she couldn't lose her temper, otherwise it would damage her image and be a loss for her.

Anyway, once Li Zhanting wakes up, she'll have plenty of opportunities to take revenge.

Xie Tingrui clearly sensed that the atmosphere at the scene seemed a bit off, and since Shen Yanran had already arrived, it wasn't convenient for Elsa to stay there. So he took the initiative to say, "Elsa, your injuries haven't fully healed yet. Let me take you back to your ward to rest."

Elsa wanted to wait until Li Zhanting woke up and the first thing he saw was her, so that the hypnosis would have the best effect. Who knew that his worthless wife would show up at this time.

This disrupted her plans.

But she quickly thought that it might not be so bad if Shen Yanran could see with her own eyes how painful it was for Li Zhanting to forget her after he came.

"Alright, then I'll head back to my ward first. I'll trouble Miss Shen to take care of Zhan for me." Elsa glanced meaningfully at Shen Yanran.

Shen Yanran frowned slightly, clearly displeased with Elsa's way of addressing her. "Miss Elsa, please watch your words. I am not Miss Shen, I am Madam Li."

Li Zhanting is her man, and she needs to assert her ownership of him.

"I'm sorry, I'm not used to marriage yet, it was my oversight." Elsa quickly apologized to Shen Yanran, but every word she said lacked any remorse. "Let's go, Rui."

They say three women make a drama, and with Shen Yanran and Elsa here, Xie Tingrui was finding it a bit unbearable. However, he still sided with Shen Yanran. "Elsa, Sister-in-law Yanran is right. She and Lao Li have been married for a long time and even have a child. You can't just call her that anymore."

Have children?

Elsa's face immediately turned pale. She hadn't expected this woman to be so capable; she was actually pregnant!

She needs to find a way to get rid of that child as soon as possible, otherwise what if she marries Li Zhanting and has a child in the future, and then tries to take her property?

Seeing that Elsa didn't speak, Xie Tingrui assumed she had taken his words to heart and left with her.

Only Shen Yanran and Li Zhanting remained in the ward.

After staring at Li Zhanting for two seconds, Shen Yanran could no longer hold back her longing and silently shed tears.

They say a day apart feels like three autumns, and she hadn't seen Li Zhanting for almost two days. She missed him terribly, but when they finally met, he was unconscious again, which made her heart ache.

Shen Yanran sat on the edge of the bed, silently taking Li Zhanting's familiar big hand in her hand, her voice choked with sobs and reproach, "Li Zhanting, you big liar! You said you would be fine in America, you said you would come back to China to find me, and you didn't keep any of those promises. You know I hate being lied to the most in this life. If you wake up, I will never talk to you again!"

Li Zhanting, who was still unconscious, naturally wouldn't react to Shen Yanran.

But Shen Yanran kept talking and talking, hoping that if she kept bothering him, he might not be able to take it and wake up suddenly.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and he still didn't wake up.

Shen Yanran stopped talking and just quietly watched Li Zhanting, staying by his side and protecting him.

After an unknown amount of time, the ward door was opened again, and this time it was Li Zhanting's father, Li Zhongnan, who entered.

Upon hearing the voice, Shen Yanran subconsciously turned around and saw that it was Li Zhongnan. She immediately stood up and said, "Dad, you've arrived."

Li Zhongnan was neither satisfied nor disgusted with this daughter-in-law. Moreover, she was now pregnant with the Li family's child. He couldn't be so heartless as to kick her out. So he nodded and asked, "Well, how are you? You've been on the plane for so long. Is there anything wrong with your body? I'll find a doctor to check you out."

"I feel fine, nothing's bothering me, thank you for your concern, Dad." This was the first time Shen Yanran had spoken to her father-in-law alone like this, and she felt inexplicably nervous.

Li Zhongnan's face darkened. "It's good that you're alright. Otherwise, if something had happened, how would I explain it to Zhan'er and my family?"

Shen Yanran knew that it was risky for her to be pregnant and take such a long flight, but she felt it was worth it for Li Zhanting. "I'm sorry, Dad, for making you worry. It's just that Zhanting is in such a serious situation, and I really couldn't rest easy, so I asked a friend to bring me here."

Before Li Zhongnan arrived, he had already heard Xie Tingrui explain the whole story, and he knew that Shen Yanran had guessed that Li Zhanting was in trouble based on her intuition.

If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't have such deep feelings for him.

Ultimately, the bond between the two children was even deeper than he had imagined.

Li Zhongnan said in a low voice, "I don't mean to blame you. I was just worried that your body wouldn't be able to handle it if you found out, so I asked the people back home to keep it from you. But it seems that you are much stronger than I thought. It must have been hard for you to travel such a long distance to such an unfamiliar place for Zhan'er. You've had a tough time."

Shen Yanran shook her head repeatedly, "It's not hard at all, not hard at all."

She genuinely wanted to know about Li Zhanting's situation, not to impress Li Zhongnan. Not afraid of being misunderstood, she shook her head repeatedly and explained, "Dad, please don't say that. Zhanting and I are husband and wife. This is what I should do. I hope you won't misunderstand."

Li Zhongnan waved his hand, unconsciously softening his voice, and said, "Alright, don't be nervous. I, Li Zhongnan, have been in the business world for so long, I can tell who is sincere and who is not. But your health is also very important. I'll have someone bring you some food in a bit. You should rest well and adjust to the time difference. Then, have a full check-up at the hospital. If the doctor says there's nothing wrong, I'll let you stay here with Zhan Ting. Otherwise, I'll have to send you to a hotel to rest."
