“If I’m not allowed to take it off, what happens when you propose to me in the future? Where am I going to wear the other ring?”
Lin Xiaowan looked slightly troubled as though she was seriously thinking about this matter.
Huo Zheng felt that she was extremely cute and wanted to laugh. However, he was worried she would be angry so he suppressed his laughter and replied, “I’ll tell you when I’m about to propose, and at that time, you can remove this ring.”
Lin Xiaowan thought about it and was quite satisfied with his solution. “Alright.”
Then, she raised her chin and said, “You have to pursue me properly. Otherwise, I won’t agree to marry you. It won’t be easy.”
Huo Zheng could not conceal his smile at all. “Okay.”
Seeing how he agreed so readily, Lin Xiaowan looked at him skeptically and asked, “Do you even know how to pursue women? How did you pursue Song Zhiyi back then? You have to treat me 10,000 times better than you did her when you were pursuing him. Do you understand?”
“I understand,” Huo Zheng replied with a nod. Then, thinking that they agreed to be honest with each other, he only hesitated a moment before he said, “I didn’t pursue her. She pursued me.”
Lin Xiaowan patted his head and sighed. “You were so naive and easily deceived back then…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBack then, Huo Zheng was still a pure and innocent young man. He was indeed easy to deceive.
Huo Zheng’s ears turned red.
After this ordeal, the two of them were open with each other. Not only did Lin Xiaowan change, but Huo Zheng changed as well.
Lin Xiaowan pouted and said, dissatisfied, “She addressed you in such an intimate manner, but I only addressed you by your name… You allow her to call you Brother Huo. Why didn’t you tell me to call you that?”
“I didn’t tell her to call me Brother Huo, and I didn’t like the way she called me either,” Huo Zheng said. At the same time, he wanted to tell Lin Xiaowan to address him as ‘Hubby’ or ‘Husband’, but knowing her, she would probably hit him out of embarrassment.
“Alright, then I’ll think about what to call you…”
…
When the nurse came in with the medicine and breakfast, she saw Lin Xiaowan leaning against Huo Zheng and chatting animatedly. She smiled and said, “Mr. Huo, you’re awake. Do you feel unwell? You fainted suddenly yesterday. Miss Lin was very worried.”
Lin Xiaowan’s face flushed in embarrassment. “Let’s not talk about that anymore.”
It had snowed the entire night and only stopped this morning. It was overcast outside, and there was a thick layer of snow.
“Can I go out for a walk after I eat?” Lin Xiaowan asked the nurse.
The nurse had been assigned to Lin Xiaowan since Lin Xiaowan was admitted to the hospital. She knew Lin Xiaowan’s condition very well. When she heard Lin Xiaowan’s words, she looked a little troubled as she replied tactfully, “I’m afraid that won’t do. It’s a little too cold outside.”
Lin Xiaowan lowered her head, looking disappointed. She was born in winter, and she liked the snow. When she was born, it was snowing heavily. She thought it was a pity she could not build a snowman today.
The nurse saw the pitiful expression on Lin Xiaowan’s face, and her heart surged with motherly love. Her heart softened, and she said, “Why don’t I talk to Dr. Zhang first?”
Dr. Zhang was the kind-looking doctor from before.
Lin Xiaowan’s eyes lit up immediately while Huo Zheng’s gaze was icy when he looked at the nurse.
The nurse could not withstand the pressure from Huo Zheng’s gaze. She chuckled and quickly left the room. Before leaving, she reminded him that Lin Xiaowan’s medicine should be taken after her food.
…
In the end, Lin Xiaowan did not go out. Huo Zheng did not allow it.
Moreover, when Doctor Zhang came over, he listened to her breathing with his stethoscope and rejected her request to go outside with an amiable smile on his face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Wait another week. If you go out now, it’ll be easy for you to catch a cold.”
Alas, the snow would already melt by next week unless it began to snow heavily again.
Since she could not go out, she tormented Huo Zheng and asked him to cut the apple into the shape of bunnies. He did not know how to do this and could only learn clumsily.
When his secretary and assistant came, he was finally rescued from the torment.
…
At lunch.
After dealing with his work, Huo Zheng asked, “Have you thought about what you want to call me?”
Lin Xiaowan bit her chopsticks and looked at him hesitantly before she said softly, looking embarrassed, “Can I just call you ‘Brother?’?
Huo Zheng laughed and kissed her. “Alright.”
…
Lin Xiaowan stayed in the hospital for another week.
After the 8th of the 12th lunar month, Lin Xiaowan’s post-surgery wounds were almost healed. She no longer wanted to stay in the hospital and begged to be discharged. She felt that it was pointless for her to continue staying in the hospital.
