31 -Â Because I will try my best to make our marriage what he and I want.
The community is completely silent late at night.
Even the street lights had been turned off long ago, and the buildings were completely dark. Only a few scattered rooms still had lights on.
Cheng Li leaned in his arms and heard a thumping sound in her daze.
Across the chest, it was still deafening.
It's his heartbeat.
Rong Qi just carried her all the way to the car. He was supposed to put her in the back seat so that she could lie down and be more comfortable.
But Rong Qi was really worried about driving alone.
Finally, he placed her in the passenger seat and folded the passenger seat back.
When he walked around from the front of the car to the driver's seat and got in, he saw the person in the passenger seat curled up in pain and wearing fluffy pajamas, like a docile short-haired cat.
Rong Qi drove the car and went straight to the hospital.
Cars whizzed by on the streets of Shanghai late at night. The streets were rarely empty, leaving only the lingering sounds of exhaust fumes and the roar of motors.
Soon, the car phone rang.
It was assistant He Zhuoyuan who called.
Rong Qi connected, and He Zhuoyuan's voice echoed in the carriage: "Mr. Rong, I have contacted the hospital, and the doctor is waiting in the emergency room. Are you okay?"
He Zhuoyuan was awakened by Rong Qi's call in the middle of the night.
Was startled.
He is Rong Qi's special assistant. He is basically responsible for Rong Qi's personal affairs and arranges all the big and small issues around Rong Qi.
But Rong Qi is not the kind of boss who can't tell working hours and calls people around the clock at any time.
In his memory, there were only two such late-night phone calls recently.
Once, Mr. Rong's grandma was sick and he was out of town, so he called him and asked him to come over and take care of it.
Another time, right now.
I also called him to contact the hospital.
He Zhuoyuan subconsciously thought there was something wrong with Mr. Rong's grandma.
Until a very thin and soft voice shouted with a slight sob: "It hurts."
Cheng Li turned over in the passenger seat in pain.
If the place was spacious enough, she would like to roll around.
She was not wearing socks, and the white plush slippers that were originally on her feet had now fallen off. Her white toes were stepping on the edge of the passenger seat, and the black leather seat reflected her stretched toes.
Rong Qi held the steering wheel with one hand, stretched out his other hand, and grabbed her palm: "Be good, we'll be at the hospital soon."
He Zhuoyuan hadn't hung up the phone yet.
This sound of "goodbye" made my scalp numb.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to have encountered something terrible.
"It hurts too much," Cheng Li swore that she was not a squeamish person, but now she felt that her abdomen was numb with pain, as if someone had mixed up her large and small intestines with their hands and tied them in a bow.
Rong Qi coaxed in a low voice: "I know, it won't hurt after a while."
Cheng Li had a tear in the corner of her eye: "How did you know that it's me who hurts."
Rong Qi surrendered: "Okay, I don't know."
The sickest people.
He Zhuoyuan discovered something incredible at this moment.
That was Mr. Rong. He had probably forgotten about it and was still on the phone with him.
He hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to hang up the phone silently or to hang up again.
Suddenly, He Zhuoyuan heard: "You haven't hung up the phone yet?"
He didn't eavesdrop on purpose! ! !
He Zhuoyuan: "Mr. Rong, do you need me to come over now?"
He is so witty.
"No, you can rest," Rong Qi said, and then added: "Hang up the phone, it's not convenient for me."
He Zhuoyuan responded repeatedly: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, He Zhuoyuan stared at the phone, thinking I remembered Rong Qi's gentle voice again.
Although Rong Qi is in the company, he is not a tyrant.
But it was hard for him to imagine that Mr. Rong, with such a cold and distant face, would coax a girl to say, "Be good."
The emergency room late at night is actually not too busy.
But when Rong Qi's car arrived at the door, a nurse was already waiting at the door pushing a wheelchair.
This is a private hospital that is famous for its good service.
Qiyu Technology has a cooperation with this hospital. The hospital's big data is currently supported by their company, and Qiyu's annual employee welfare physical examination is also done here.
Therefore, as soon as He Zhuoyuan called, the hospital took it seriously and sent someone to wait at the emergency door early.
The car stopped and Rong Qi hugged Cheng Li and got out of the car.
Cheng Li leaned in his arms, probably because someone else was there, so she reluctantly endured it and stopped crying out in pain.
The nurse pushed the wheelchair over and he shook his head: "I'll hold her first."
The nurse was stunned for a moment and said, "It will be very troublesome to go up and downstairs for check-up later."
"She is quite light."
Seeing this, the nurse could only nod. , pushed the empty wheelchair and turned around to walk into the emergency room.
Rong Qi hugged Cheng Li and followed her, walking easily and firmly.
When you come to the hospital, you can't get injections and medicine immediately. You have to go through a series of examinations.
After taking X-rays and drawing blood, it was determined that it was acute gastroenteritis caused by food poisoning.
When the nurse gave Cheng Li an intravenous drip, she looked up at the hanging bottle above her head, her nose twitched slightly, and she said aggrievedly: "Check again for a while, I feel like I'm getting better."
The nurse was amused by her and burst into laughter. .
Rong Qi sat next to her and asked directly: "Would you like to lean on me for a while?"
Cheng Li was hugged back and forth by him that night, and she seemed to have long been accustomed to the clear and light woody coldness on his body. The scent made her nestle into his arms habitually.
"Close your eyes and take a rest," Rong Qi's voice sounded above her head.
Gentle and slightly lazy, but very reassuring.
The nurse inserted the needle into her and told her to pay attention to the flow rate of the drip.
Rong Qi nodded.
He lowered his head to remove Cheng Li's hair that had fallen on his face, and pushed it behind his ears.
When the nurse returned to the nurse's desk, she couldn't help but say, "As for the VIP just now, do you know how gentle he is?"
"What's wrong?"
"I brought my wife to see a doctor in the middle of the night, and he held her during the entire checkup. "
You have such good physical strength?"
The nurses are used to seeing patients and their families in the hospital. Some men can't even hold their own children, let alone their wives.
"And it's a princess hug."
"This is so boyfriend-friendly. Is it the one over there? Oh my god, why are you still so handsome?"
"Yeah, his wife is also very beautiful. Although she is sick, her face is It looks small and white."
"I just like to see talented and beautiful women like this."
"Me too, sometimes I get really angry when I see beautiful women with pig heads."
Although Cheng Li didn't know what the nurse was talking about, she still felt severe pain in her abdomen, which was worse than before. That kind of fierce pain is now the kind of pain that lingers into the bones.
Fortunately, she was lying in Rong Qi's arms.
His warm chest and the familiar scent lingering on the tip of her nose made her gradually fall into sleep.
When Cheng Li woke up again, her face was completely white, and there was a light mist in the air.
A pure white space filled with smoke.
She blinked and thought, didn't she just get food poisoning from eating seafood and go to heaven?
Until she turned her head slightly and saw a person sitting by the window.
There was a computer in front of him. The sleeves of his black shirt were slightly rolled up to his wrists. The glass window behind him was half open. A few rays of light were refracted through the foggy room, as if it was covered with a layer of hazy filters. , it's a bit too good-looking.
Sure enough, a good-looking person, even sitting there, can become a picture comparable to a movie scene.
"Ahem," Cheng Li suddenly coughed twice.
Rong Qi raised his head and their eyes met.
"Why are you coughing?" Rong Qi frowned, looked at her carefully, and suddenly said, "I'll ask the doctor to come and take a look."
"No," Cheng Li immediately stopped her.
Rong Qi lowered his head and glanced at her: "Don't be too troublesome."
Cheng Li raised her hand: "I'm not too troublesome."
Then, she looked around and reminded her slightly: "Don't you think this room feels a little smoky? "
Cheng Li looked at the humidifier on the opposite side.
Why do some people turn up the air humidifier so much in Shanghai during this season?
"I'll turn it off," Rong Qi walked over and reached out to turn off the humidifier.
He frowned slightly and whispered, "Why is this thing so foggy? Isn't it supposed to purify the air?"
Cheng Li also fell silent.
Two seconds later, she said, "Maybe the one you want to talk about is called an air purifier?"
Rong Qi turned his head and looked towards her.
For the first time, Cheng Li saw innocence and confusion like a deer in his always dark and deep black eyes.
This time, Cheng Li couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud.
When she had laughed enough, Rong Qi looked at her: "Are you hungry?"
Don't tell me, she was really hungry.
Cheng Li touched her belly and nodded: "I'm so hungry. I want to eat Xiaolongbao or soup."
Just thinking about it made her swallow hard.
In ancient times, plum blossoms were used to quench thirst, but now they are expected to quench hunger.
"No, the doctor said you can only eat porridge these two days." Rong Qi stood at the foot of the bed, looking at her with a half-smile, and slowly added two words: "white porridge."
After a while, Cheng Li looked at the small bed An exquisite porcelain bowl placed on the table.
It's full of snow-white, crystal clear porridge.
beat! hit! Report! complex!
This was definitely retaliation for her laughing at him just now.
Rong Qi reached out and handed over a spoon. Cheng Li looked up at him and asked puzzledly, "Are you Rong Qi?"
When she asked, Rong Qi raised his eyebrows slightly.
"That's the one from last night, not Rong Qi." Cheng Li took the spoon, took a big mouthful, stuffed it into her mouth, and muttered: "It was so tender last night."
Although she was confused from the pain last night.
But it doesn't mean that she has really lost her memory.
Rong Qi arrived late at night, carried her to the hospital, held her throughout the examination, and finally let her lie in his arms while the intravenous drip was administered.
The person standing in front of her now was completely different.
At this moment, Cheng Li finally discovered Rong Qi's attributes.
die! proud! Sweet!
Suddenly, Cheng Li looked down at the white rice porridge in front of her, stirred it with a spoon, and said slowly: "Do you still remember high school biology and plant classification?"
Rong Qi glanced at her casually, intuitively she was about to make a mistake. Yao Mozi.
Cheng Li looked at him with a smile: "Just like the white rice porridge I am eating now, it is rice itself, and rice belongs to the class Monocotyledon, Gramineae, and genus Oryza."
Rong Qi remained silent.
"So do you know your attributes?" Cheng Li took a sip of porridge and looked up at him.
Finally, Rong Qi whispered: "What?"
Cheng Li finally showed a proud smile: "You are a tsundere and a tough talker."
Rong Qi's eyes fell on her, calmly, not annoyed at all.
Cheng Li, who was smiling happily, suddenly felt a little boring.
Until Rong Qi suddenly said: "What about you?"
Cheng Li was startled and slightly confused.
Her?
She thinks she is a normal human being.
It's not like someone who has a soft heart just as hard as his mouth is.
Rong Qi glanced at her, and his tone was careless and lazy: "He is heartless."
Cheng Li: "I am not."
Rong Qi hummed, but did not ask why he didn't say this.
"I am someone who knows how to repay kindness." Cheng Li sat on the bed, raised her head slightly, her black pupils were shining brightly, and she looked at him with a smile: "Thank you last night, even though it was so late, I still didn't hesitate. Come for me."
She sat on the bed, her long hair pulled back casually, revealing a smooth face.
At this moment, the face was slightly raised, looking at him wholeheartedly.
He could even see the light in her eyes, smart and shining. Just a blink of an eye lit up his heart, like the grass growing in the warm spring sun and the orioles flying.
"Is this this room?"
There was a knock at the door.
Rong Qi suddenly came back to his senses, immediately turned around and walked towards the door.
Cheng Li was a little surprised when she saw him eager to open the door. Sure enough, even a man like Rong Qi had to work hard to please his mother-in-law.
She immediately recognized the voice that just spoke as that of Teacher Ling.
After Ling Shuanghua and Cheng Dingbo came in, they looked around the ward. It has to be said that the independent ward with a single room is different. Not only the facilities are complete, but also the decoration of the room is warm.
"There are also flowers. The hospital is really thoughtful," Ling Shuanghua said with emotion as she glanced at the flowers on the table.
Cheng Li sat on the hospital bed and said helplessly: "You shouldn't ask about my situation first, and then worry about the flower."
"Rong Qi has told us about your situation." Ling Shuanghua said to her After taking a look, Youyou said, "Isn't it just because I have a bad stomach?"
Cheng Li: "..."
She was sure that this was indeed her biological mother.
Cheng Dingbo placed the fruits he brought here, sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Cheng Li's face up and down, and said distressedly: "Food poisoning can be big or small, don't talk about her like that."
Cheng Li heard this. After saying this, she curled her lips and said coquettishly: "That's right."
"A twenty-eight-year-old is still acting coquettishly," Ling Shuanghua glanced at her.
Cheng Li suddenly thought of something, the company!
"It's over, it's over, I haven't asked for leave yet."
She slept until almost noon and did not go to the company this morning or call in advance to ask for leave.
"In the morning, I asked for leave for you." Rong Qi, who was next to him, suddenly spoke.
Cheng Li was silent.
After a long time, she asked humbly: "How did you ask for leave for me?"
Rong Qi said calmly: "You forgot that I exchanged business cards with Mr. Ren of your company at the summit forum last time."
Cheng Li's scalp felt a little numb . , but still had the courage to ask: "In what name did you ask for leave on my behalf?"
Just thinking about that scene, she started to shout for help.
But Ren Kuang is probably more confused than anyone else.
When I received a call from Rong Qi early in the morning, I thought it was something big.
In the end, he asked for leave on her behalf.
"Hidden marriage is over again, right?" Suddenly, Ms. Ling was slowly adding fuel to the fire.
Cheng Li took a deep breath: "Mom."
Ms. Ling: "What do you think I'm going to do? Get married, and you make me look like a member of the underground party. Hey, you think it's strange. If I had discovered you earlier, With this acting talent, I should have enrolled you in the Shanghai Theater Academy."
Cheng Li: "..."
She discovered for the first time that Teacher Ling's eccentricity had reached its peak.
Cheng Li turned to look at Rong Qi and saw that the corners of his eyes were raised, and he was obviously smiling.
"You're laughing at me too," Cheng Li thought. The two of them did this together, so why are all the guns aimed at her alone?
Instead, Ms. Ling glanced at Rong Qi and said, "Have you had lunch?"
"Not yet. Where are you two?" Rong Qi said politely.
Ms. Ling: "We ate at home, so you should go and eat quickly. She just has a bad stomach, but she is not paralyzed. She doesn't need someone to accompany her all the time."
Cheng Li: "..."
After Rong Qi left, Cheng Li said, "Mom, can you save some face for me?"
"I just said that for your own good," Ling Shuanghua glanced at her.
For her own good?
Ling Shuanghua said: "You are indeed beautiful, but when you are married and living, what's the use of just having looks. Maybe Rong Qi still has some filters for you now, so I want to break this filter for him as soon as possible. Don't I don't have any illusions."
Cheng Li was dissatisfied: "Am I that bad?"
"I am picky about food and difficult to raise. Although I seem to have a gentle temper, I am actually just like your father. He is very stubborn at heart. The horse can't be pulled back."
Cheng Dingbo intervened at the right time: "I was sure of your mother at that time, no one could persuade her."
Cheng Li was stunned. Are you going to stuff her with dog food now?
"So are you sure about him?" Ling Shuanghua looked at her and said seriously: "What if in the future, you suddenly find that your marriage is not what you want, or you meet someone better and someone you really like, What will you do then?"
Halfway through, Rong Qi realized that he didn't have his cell phone with him. He had just arrived at the door.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard the conversation inside.
The hospital doors are very thin and not very soundproof.
His palm had been raised, and his knuckles were about to fall on the door, but at this moment, he slowly fell down.
Rong Qi stood at the door.
Head hung slightly.
The palm that fell by his leg was gradually clenched into a fist.
It seems that he is waiting for the judgment to come.
Because Cheng Li inside, after hearing this question, remained silent.
Her silence was like a knife.
His heart will be touched at any time.
"I don't think I will encounter any of these."
Cheng Li's voice slowly sounded inside.
She said: "Because I will work hard to make our marriage what he and I want."
