Perfect Pampered Marriage: Good Morning, Hubby

This Was The Worst Nightmare

Li Shengxia thought she could not be more miserable, but something worse was awaiting her the following day.

She had been staying in the hospital for several days. She asked the nurse that was on duty for a ward inspection when she could be discharged.

Without batting an eyelid, the nurse replied, “Eh? Perhaps in the next twenty days.”

“Why? Am I seriously ill?” Startled, she blurted.

The nurse sized her up and down strangely.

To be honest, this patient had a pretty face. Her boyfriend’s dashing appearance, especially, was something to be envied by both man and god.

However, this couple had rather eccentric characters. Birds of the same feather flock together, she supposed. Did it mean that she had to behave like this patient to attract a tall, rich, and handsome boyfriend?

The nurse suddenly realized she had been daydreaming and quickly recollected her thoughts. “Yes, your very thoughtful boyfriend has checked you in for half a month in the hospital. Be patient, it’s only been three days.”

“No, he’s not my boy-”

She had wanted to explain their relationship but she finally registered the nurse’s words.

“What? Half a month?”

She was quiet for several seconds before squeezing these words out of her mouth. “I thought I was only down with a fever?”

“You’ve already recovered from the fever. I’m so jealous of you. Your boyfriend cares for you so much that he doesn’t want to take the risk even with just a fever. Just have a good rest. The director wouldn’t even give me a few days off. Well, I need to go check on the other patients now. Ring the bell if you need me.”

The nurse had left the room for a long time but Li Shengxia still could not recollect herself.

Learning about this news gave her mixed feelings. She was glad to not be severely ill but the fact she had no idea how long she was to stay in the hospital for this mild fever was also upsetting for her.

This was not just upsetting, but it was the worst nightmare!

Even if she needed a break, she would not choose to lay in a hospital bed for a month!

Mo Nianchen had arranged for her to stay in the hospital for half a month! Was this a joke? It was only a fever, not to mention that she had fully recovered!

She did not want to stay in the hospital for any longer!

The woman was still in a rage when Mo Nianchen walked in with lemonade…

Another cup of lemonade!

She thought every glass of lemonade was a curse. However, she had currently fallen into such misery that all she wanted was to hear the truth.

“Mo Nianchen, I heard you’ve arranged for me to stay here for half a month?” She tried her best to sound calm, knowing that she would make her situation worse if she accidentally provoked the man.

Immediately, he asked, “Why? Do you feel unwell somewhere? I’ll make arrangements to extend your stay right away.”

“Don’t!” She knew he was being serious from the tone of his voice. She quickly grabbed his sleeve and tried to show him she had fully recovered.

“It’s just a common cold which can be easily treated by some medication. See, the fever has already gone down. I’ve already been trapped here for three days and I really need to leave!”

That was the reason.

He ignored her completely and handed over what she thought was the grossest drink on earth. “Drink up.”

“Can I leave the hospital if I drink this?”

His face showed complete indifference. “Try not drinking it.”

“…” She was still trying to persuade him. “I’ve been lying in here for three days. I’ve got a lot of work waiting for me in the office.”

“You’re not as important as you think you are.” He was definitely not stingy with his criticism.

“I want to breathe fresh air, to enjoy the beauty of life. I want to…”

With one phrase, he provided the perfect solution to satisfy all her wishes. “We can take a walk in a bit. What else?”

“I want to leave the hospital,” she said.

“You will when the time comes.”

“But I want to leave now.”

“Try saying it once more.”

“…” She was left speechless. “Mo Nianchen, can I still act on my own free will?”

“Free will? How na?ve of you to think of that when you’ve sold yourself to me.” He replied coldly while sizing up and down.

She was about to lose her mind. “But I’m sick of staying here.”

“Then continue staying until you’re fully recovered!”

He was unperturbed despite her relentless effort. She decided to change to a different tactic. “Mo Nianchen, I beg of you, please do me a favor and let me out of here, will you? I really am losing my mind!”

The man was not convinced. “Reason?”

“Boredom! I’m bored out of my mind.”

There was a sudden change of tone in his voice. “It appears you prefer the scent of our home?” he said charmingly.

The scent of their home? Her entire face was red with embarrassment once she understood the double innuendo behind his words. This man was so dirty-minded!

“What’s the matter?” His voice rang in the air again. “Lie down if you’re tired. Weren’t you complaining about back pain last night?”

“No, no, it doesn’t hurt anymore. Not at all.”

“Are you hinting at me to have another go?”

“…” The woman was freaking out from this conversation. Frustration filled her upon realizing she would have to continue staying in the hospital for the next twelve days if she did not try harder to argue her stance. “What can I do to make you agree to my plea?!”

He raised an eyebrow. “You really wish to leave so badly?”
