The mysterious CEO's endless pampering
Chapter 671 Kindness Has Its Limits
Gu Zitong looked at the man in front of her with some wariness. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm nothing to her. She just saved me, and I wanted to come and see her."
"You mean Shen Yanran got injured because she saved you?" Lu Ming thought about it for a moment, and realized that it was indeed something that someone with Shen Yanran's personality would do.
Gu Zitong finally managed to find out the address from the previous hospital. She heard that the condition was quite serious, and she was anxious to see Shen Yanran. "Um, can you tell me where she is now?"
It wasn't difficult for Lu Ming to take the child to see Shen Yanran; the difficulty lay in Li Zhanting's murderous look, which terrified Lu Ming.
If we suddenly take him there, we might get kicked out.
"Little friend, listen to me. The person you're looking for is still unconscious and can't see anyone right now. Also, do your parents know you've run here all by yourself? How about I take you to your parents first, and then we can come see her, okay?"
Upon hearing that Shen Yanran was still unconscious, Gu Zitong's already pale face turned even paler. He asked with a worried expression, "Is Aunt Yanran's injury very serious? Will she die?"
Seeing that the child seemed frightened, Lu Ming quickly explained, "It's not that serious, just a mild concussion. He'll be fine after a few days of rest. You..."
Before he could finish speaking, a nurse suddenly rushed over anxiously, "Dr. Lu, the patient in bed 14 is suddenly having uncontrollable convulsions, please come with me to take a look!"
“Okay, I’ll be right there.” Lu Ming’s face turned serious, and then he lowered his head and said to Gu Zitong, “Little friend, wait for me in my office first, don’t wander off.”
After Lu Ming left, Gu Zitong did not go to the doctor's office, but continued to look for Shen Yanran.
At that moment, Shen Yanran also woke up.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt a sharp pain in her head, and her beautiful eyebrows furrowed together.
Li Zhanting had been watching Shen Yanran. When he noticed she was awake and about to touch her wound, he immediately stopped her and said in a deep voice, "Don't move. Your wound has just been stitched up. You can't touch it."
Shen Yanran raised her eyes to look at the handsome man in front of her, blinked, and asked with some confusion, "Who... are you?"
Li Zhanting's hand, which was helping Shen Yanran sit down, suddenly paused. "You don't recognize me?"
Shen Yanran nodded slightly, "I don't know him."
Li Zhanting clearly remembered Lu Ming saying that all her indicators were normal, and that she only had a mild concussion. How could she not even recognize him?
The usually calm and composed man suddenly turned gloomy, but he didn't want to frighten Shen Yanran. "I am your husband."
Shen Yanran reacted as if she had heard a joke, "You're my husband? What a joke! When did I get married? I didn't know."
Li Zhanting hoped that Shen Yanran was joking with him at this moment, "If you don't believe me, I can show you our marriage certificate."
"But I really don't remember getting married. You're not lying, are you?" Shen Yanran asked, still suspicious.
Li Zhanting stared intently at Shen Yanran's wary face and asked, "Then do you remember who you are?"
Shen Yanran nodded firmly, "Of course I remember who I am. The question is, who are you, and why am I in the hospital?"
Li Zhanting's dark, deep eyes suddenly dimmed a little. "You were in a car accident. I brought you here. You have a mild concussion."
Just as Shen Yanran was about to say something more, she suddenly noticed several obvious scratches on the man's neck. The blood had dried, but he hadn't even bothered to treat them.
"Your neck is injured, why don't you get it treated quickly? What if it gets infected!" Shen Yanran suddenly stood up and pulled at the wound on her head, gasping in pain.
Li Zhanting was heartbroken to see her like this, completely disregarding his own injuries. Instead, he wished Shen Yanran's injuries were on his own. "I told you not to move around. Did you aggravate your wound? Let me see."
Ignoring Shen Yanran's amnesia, he immediately leaned over to examine the injury on Shen Yanran's head.
Seeing this, Shen Yanran's blank face suddenly curled into a mischievous smile. Then she stretched her neck and placed a kiss on Li Zhanting's thin and sexy lips. "Husband, I was just teasing you. I haven't lost my memory."
That's right, Shen Yanran didn't lose her memory; she was faking it.
It was just that when I came to this realization, I suddenly had a brainwave and thought of a scene from a TV series, so I pretended to have amnesia and saw how he would react.
Of course, she was also afraid that Li Zhanting would be angry with her for saving Gu Zitong.
The moment Li Zhanting's hand touched Shen Yanran's head, she suddenly kissed him, and the chill emanating from him vanished. But he seemed even more displeased. "Do you think this is funny?"
Shen Yanran suddenly felt nervous. Oh no, she thinks she's messed up...
"It wasn't fun, I'm sorry." Shen Yanran lowered her head, not daring to look Li Zhanting in the eye.
When Shen Yanran told Li Zhanting that she had lost her memory, he felt like his heart had almost stopped beating, but she said she was just teasing him.
Shen Yanran waited for a while, but didn't hear any sound from Li Zhanting. She unconsciously looked up again and saw Li Zhanting looking at her with a stern and handsome face.
She took Li Zhanting's hand and apologized for her joke, "I was wrong, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, please don't be angry."
Li Zhanting pulled his hand away, looking at her with exasperation, and said coldly, "Look at yourself now, still joking with me? Are you trying to piss me off so you can bring that brat into the house?"
Shen Yanran grabbed Li Zhanting's hand again, holding it tightly in her own, and sincerely apologized, "It's really not that. I was just afraid you were too angry and wanted to ease the atmosphere. I didn't expect the joke to go too far and backfire."
Li Zhanting was really angry. She almost lost her life for someone who was completely unrelated to her.
Shen Yanran looked at the scratch on his neck with concern and said, "But none of that matters now. Your neck injury needs to be treated immediately. I'll call a nurse to help you."
A hint of warmth finally appeared on Li Zhanting's cold and handsome face, but he still said with dissatisfaction, "So you still care about whether I live or die."
Shen Yanran's eyes widened instantly. "Of course! You're my husband, the father of my child. How could I not care about your life or death?"
"What about Gu Zitong? What are you thinking?" Li Zhanting still felt that Gu Zitong was a problem.
Shen Yanran explained helplessly, "That child seemed to suddenly realize that he was going to be adopted by someone else, so he secretly ran away from the hospital to find me, wanting me to keep him by my side. He probably sensed my predicament, so he recklessly ran into the street intending to die. How could I just watch him die? That's why I ran out to save him..."
The coldness in Li Zhanting's eyes intensified. "Gu Zitong is not normal. You absolutely cannot let him see you again."
Shen Yanran nodded in agreement, "I also sensed that he's a bit abnormal. He's only eight years old, and he's already thinking about suicide. There must be a serious problem in his mind. He needs to see a psychologist. As for adoption, let's talk about it when he's in a better mood."
Li Zhanting felt that Shen Yanran had misunderstood the point. "I said you're not allowed to see him anymore."
"Honey, I know you're worried about my safety, but I promise this is the last time. I'll be more careful in the future. What if I really can't see him and he gets upset and tries to commit suicide? I can't rest easy."
Shen Yanran always felt that Gu Zitong's desire to die was largely due to her.
He trusted her so much, and begged her again and again, but she still wouldn't agree to let him stay. That's probably why he impulsively did something so foolish.
Li Zhanting disagreed with Shen Yanran's idea. "Yanran, there are limits to kindness. You can't help him endlessly like this. There are many children in the world who are more miserable and pitiful than him. Are you going to solve their problems one by one?"
Li Zhanting was right. She couldn't help all the suffering children in the world, but she also had her own principles. "I know I'm easily swayed by emotions and often too kind, but I always feel that it's a good thing if one less person suffers and one more person is happy. I don't necessarily have to adopt Gu Zitong. At least let me take care of him for a while, until he's fully recovered, then we can find him a suitable adoptive family. What do you think?"
Li Zhanting narrowed his eyes in displeasure. "You've already made up your mind, so why are you asking me?"
Shen Yanran sensed that his tone had softened, so she immediately put on a smiling face and said ingratiatingly, "Of course I should ask you. You are the head of the family! In our family, you always make the decisions on big matters, and I make the decisions on small matters. So, I won't trouble you, President Li, with this small matter of taking care of Gu Zitong. I will handle it."
The way she's saying this makes it sound like it's no big deal to her.
Li Zhanting was furious, but Shen Yanran was injured and suffered a concussion, yet she was pitifully trying to please him.
If he still doesn't agree, who knows what stupid things she might do for that brat!
Li Zhanting said calmly, "Let's see how he performs."
If Gu Zitong does anything else that would harm Shen Yanran, his bottom line is to not let him die.
Shen Yanran finally felt relieved, and even the pain in her head subsided.
Wait, did she forget something...?
After all that talk, she still doesn't know how Gu Zitong is doing. Is he alright?
Shen Yanran asked with some concern, "By the way, where is Tongtong? Where is he now?"
Just as Li Zhanting was about to say he didn't know, someone knocked on the door, and then Xu Fan walked in. "Mr. Li, Gu Zitong is looking for Madam. He's right outside. Should we let him in?"
Li Zhanting didn't want him to come in, but his wife would definitely not agree, so he could only keep a straight face and say coldly, "Let him in."
