Get Married - Chap 17
Shao Chengyun always said what he said, so he called the driver to go through the discharge procedures.
The hospital also knew about Shao’s background, so they were extra cautious about the request to leave the hospital early. The doctor on duty came to the ward specially to check Xin Rong’s symptoms of subconjunctival hemorrhage.
In fact, Xin Rong is fine, but the doctor didn’t want to take any risks, so he suggested whether to stay in the hospital for observation for two more days.
Shao Chengyun didn’t say to stay, nor did he say not to stay, he said coldly to Xin Rong, “You decide.”
Xin Rong hardly thought about it, and immediately replied to the doctor, “Get out of the hospital, I’m fine.” —— without even asking if there were any precautions for going home to recuperate.
The doctor reluctantly signed and asked him to come back a week later for reexamination and removal of stitches.
Since she was discharged from the hospital so suddenly, she didn’t make any preparations, so Xin Rong put on a pair of velvet slippers and the same patient uniform, and followed Shao Chengyun, walking out with uneasy legs.
When getting out of the elevator, some people outside rushed in, Shao Chengyun raised his hand to block him, preventing others from touching him.
On the surface, it seemed that Shao Chengyun didn’t take care of him much, but in fact, he had been paying attention from the corner of the eye. Whenever Xin Rong fell behind by a step or two, Shao Chengyun’s pace also slowed down. Later, when the two of them walked to the entrance of the hospital building, the car was already parked outside, only a dozen meters away, Shao Chengyun still took off his suit jacket and put it on Xin Rong’s shoulders.
Xin Rong got into the car first, and suddenly his eyes lit up as soon as he got into the back row. There was actually a portable fish tank on the seat, which contained 123, and I don’t know when Shao Chengyun went to his house to bring it out.
Xin Rong was overjoyed, and immediately picked up the new fish tank and hugged it in her arms.
Shao Chengyun followed and sat in the back row, and ordered the driver to drive to the villa in the middle of the mountain.
The driver who drove tonight was changed. It was not the “Brother Chen” that Xin Rong had just met, which made him feel a little more relaxed.
Holding the fish tank in his arms, he also wanted to say something to Shao Chengyun, if there was an acquaintance sitting in front of him, he might be even more embarrassed to speak.
The car drove up the main road, Shao Chengyun sat aside without saying a word, his expression was almost as indifferent as when he was in the ward.
Xin Rong was silent in her heart for a while, and then said, “Mr. Shao, thank you for saving me last night, and the house matter, thank you too.”
“…Is the injury on your hand okay?”
Xin Rong said, turned to look at Shao Chengyun, and then made a somewhat bold move.
He took the initiative to reach out, touched Shao Chengyun’s left hand, touched the bandage, and said, “Is it bandaged again?”
The window film of the rear seat was attached very privacy-consciously, and the light from the street lamps outside could barely penetrate. The way Shao Chengyun sat in the shadows with a cold face was not so fearful in Xin Rong’s heart now.
Xin Rong is quite a clever kid, and he has his own judgment. He remembered clearly the time Shao Chengyun rushed up to block his fist last night, and the 123 placed on the seat was more like a decisive detail. He knew there was something between them.
Shao Chengyun didn’t come to see Xin Rong all day because he was busy with work, and he had to give Xin Rong enough time to think about the pros and cons.
This day is not free, and Xin Rong really figured it out.
He had no choice but to ask Shao Chengyun for help with Tangtang’s matter, and he himself accepted the other party’s favor. The current landlord of the old house has been replaced by Shao Chengyun.
Xin Rong followed the man to the gambling table, saw the favors he got by spending a lot of money, knew his usual methods, and naturally understood the value of this house.
He had no choice but to sign that marriage agreement.
The little confusion a few days ago was at least a heartbeat. Xin Rong also deluded herself into thinking, then marriage cannot be regarded as a pure transaction.
Shao Chengyun’s wealth and background are there, if he can spend a few days with him, and even take the initiative to come to find him, Xin Rong should have self-knowledge.
In fact, after seeing the lawyer and the agreement in the manager’s office, he knew his situation very well. If you end up angering the other party because of repeated rejections, there is no need to talk about the monotango thing, and you will not have a good time in the next year.
The engagement has just begun, and Xin Rong’s requirements are very low, as long as he can spend this year safely.
Now that Shao Chengyun wants to take him home, he should first show his favor and show his attitude that he will not cause trouble. Xin Rong was also one of those who struggled to survive, and he knew everything he should know.
Shao Chengyun sat beside him, his eyes dropped, staring at the hand that was on his bandage.
Seeing that he was silent all this time, Xin Rong touched the corners of her eyes that were covered with gauze helplessly, and said in a softer voice, “Am I disfigured…? Does Shao always regret letting me Sign the agreement?”
After finishing speaking, the outstretched hand was about to be retracted, and the man grabbed it backwards.
Shao Chengyun finally looked at him now, frowned and said, “What have you been thinking about all day long?”
Although the words were not pleasant, the tone seemed less angry.
Xin Rong endured the pain from the wound at the corner of his mouth, smiled, and said, “It’s good that Mr. Shao doesn’t regret it.” After a pause, he added, “These wounds heal quickly, and the doctor said that there will be no scars.”
After he finished speaking, he didn’t feel that there was anything wrong, and the expression on his face was indifferent.
Shao Chengyun was silent for a while, and then said, “No one is urging you, you just recuperate.”
–
Although the process of bringing him back was much more troublesome than what Shao Chengyun thought at the beginning, he finally brought him home.
The villa is usually vacant, so there are no servants at home on weekday nights.
Shao Chengyun had to go to work tomorrow morning, and it was almost time for him to go to bed. He said “the bedroom is upstairs”, Xin Rong didn’t ask any further questions, and then went upstairs.
Xin Rong moved slowly when walking up the stairs, endured the pain, and tried to show himself as calm as possible. But after all, he arrived in an unfamiliar environment, Shao Chengyun went upstairs without waiting for him, Xin Rong went to the second floor, the surrounding rooms were lit, but he didn’t know which room the man entered, he stopped at the stairs for a while.
He didn’t follow the sound until the sound came from the room at the end of the corridor.
As soon as he entered the master bedroom, Shao Chengyun threw a set of pajamas for him and said, “I don’t have any in your size at home, so wear mine first.”
Xin Rong took the pajamas, the flannel material was warm and thick in his hand, and the tension of going to bed together finally arose.
He thought for a while, and said to Shao Chengyun, “Boss Shao, why don’t I go to the guest room tonight? Sometimes my wound is accidentally pressed, and I tend to wake up in the middle of the night, afraid of disturbing you…”
Shao Chengyun knew what he was afraid of, thinking that it was only the first night, and there was no need to force him to live in the same room with him, so he agreed to let him sleep in the guest bedroom next door.
Xin Rong secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and Shao Chengyun said again, “I have to go to work tomorrow, and there is a servant at home to take care of you. The lawyer is expected to come over at noon and arrange for you to sign the agreement. When the time comes, I will see clearly and sign if I think there is no problem.”
Xin Rong nodded in agreement, and then asked, “Mr. Shao, is your injured hand still comfortable? Do you want me to help you…”
Before he could finish his sentence, the man came over and rubbed his head, “Take care of yourself.” As he spoke, he stared at Xin Rong’s scarred face, and hooked his fingers on the gauze at the end of his eyes. After a while, Xin Rong subconsciously closed her eyes.
——He used to be a good person, but now there are few unharmed places on his body.
Shao Chengyun’s tone became cold again, “Don’t expect anyone to save you next time.”
Xin Rong has been with him for a week, and the fear she had towards him at first is much less.
Shao Chengyun’s face was stern, and his eyes looked a little fierce. Xin Rong raised her eyes and smiled, and said, “Okay, Mr. Shao, I will remember.”
–
When Shao Chengyun got up early the next morning, Xin Rong was still awake.
Shao Chengyun passed the door of the guest bedroom, and glanced inside through the half-closed door. There is a glass fish tank on the bedside table, and 123 is paddling slowly in it. Xin Rong was lying on his side hugging a pillow, sleeping soundly with half of his face buried behind the pillow, with one arm resting on the side of the bed, and the traces of the infusion needles were still clearly visible.
Shao Chengyun stretched out his hand to close the door, went downstairs, and the servant who lived in the house had already arrived, and greeted him and called him “Mr. Shao”.
Shao Chengyun glanced upstairs and said, “Xin Rong is sleeping in the guest bedroom on the second floor. Don’t call him, let him sleep.”
This servant was arranged by Lin Ying when Shao Chengyun returned to the country. He used to work in the main house and had heard about Shao Chengyun’s agreed marriage, so he nodded and said he knew.
When Shao Chengyun walked to the door, he seemed to remember something, and added, “He can’t go out without my consent.”
