My Hubby Can't Stop Pampering Me

Chapter 452: Chapter 453: The Wound (Monthly ticket 200 added)

If it had been any other time, Lu Weixi would not have hesitated. But at that moment, looking at Qin Zhiyou’s reddened eyes, she truly felt a bit uncertain.

While she hesitated, Qin Zhiyou did not. He directly pulled Lu Weixi up: “Even if you want to try hard, don’t push yourself too much. What if Mom wakes up and you’ve fallen ill? She’d end up worrying about you.”

“But I…” Lu Weixi looked back, glancing once more towards the direction of the ICU.

“If you keep dilly-dallying, I’ll carry you out. Have you lose face in front of my subordinates.”

Although Qin Zhiyou usually had a bit of indulgence privately, in front of Secretary Wang, he was usually more considerate towards Lu Weixi and never went too far. With that said, Lu Weixi hesitated momentarily, allowing him to pull her up.

When Secretary Wang saw the two get up, he approached and asked, “President Qin, any orders?”

Qin Zhiyou responded without hesitation, “Keep an eye on the ICU, notify us immediately if there’s any news.”

Secretary Wang nodded and Qin Zhiyou, taking Lu Weixi with him, left.

He had already had the resting room prepared, where Lu’s mother’s previous single-patient room was, equipped with a guest bed.

As Lu Weixi was led into the room, she still hesitated. She sat on the edge of the bed, thought, and then stood up again: “We shouldn’t bother Secretary Wang. He has to help out at Hanhai during the day. If we make him stay up all night, he won’t be able to handle it.”

“Don’t worry.” Qin Zhiyou was unbuttoning his shirt one by one at the moment and answered, “You just take a good rest. If he can’t handle it, he’ll naturally call someone else to watch.”

It was just a night watch, the man knew what he was doing, he wouldn’t take all the hardship himself, he would surely ask for help.

“But…”

Qin Zhiyou removed his shirt, searching for his pajamas. Since he had decided to stay the night here, of course he would prepare pajamas. However, he hadn’t slept for three nights, he had a stock of daytime clothes, but the nightwear was untouched.

He then asked her, “Which pajamas do you want to wear, white or black?”

“Either.” Lu Weixi replied reflexively, but then something seemed off and she shook her head, “I should still go.”

Ignoring her words, Qin Zhiyou continued, “I’ll take a shower first then. I’ll set the water temperature to thirty-eight degrees for you.”

“Qin Zhiyou!” Lu Weixi, repeatedly having her train of thought interrupted, was slightly annoyed. She pondered for a moment, then took two steps forward, “I’m going back. I feel more at ease there.”

Only then did Qin Zhiyou turn back, righting a finger at her and flicking it against her forehead.

Lu Weixi, who was already on the edge of the bed, fell back onto it due to his action. Before she could say anything, Qin Zhiyou flung a white pajama onto her head, “Get dressed in pajamas, take a bath, and don’t go anywhere.”

Lu Weixi glared at him, but Qin Zhiyou only sighed, “You haven’t slept properly for three days. Are you trying to become an immortal? If you still can’t settle down, I’ll keep watch for you later.”

This made Lu Weixi hesitate a bit. She lifted her head, looking at the blue-gray shadows under Qin Zhiyou’s eyes. After three sleepless nights, even iron men like Qin Zhiyou would have red eyes, shadows under them, pale complexion, and scruffy stubble on the chin.

Even though one could argue that this whole incident started because of him, he indeed did try very hard.
