When Jiang Jie woke up, she looked at the white ceiling. She was still a little dizzy. She turned her head and looked at the person beside her. Ji Huai also looked down at her.
One of his hands was still pressed under her neck. She was clinging to him, sleeping soundly, and her hand was still holding on to his clothes.
"What time is it?" she asked.
Ji Huai: "Seven o'clock."
Jiang Jie looked at the darkening sky outside the window: "..."
Lose yourself to death!
Those who didn't know better thought she was having surgery and needed to rest.
Thinking that he was still recovering and needed to eat something nutritious, she hurriedly started to get up, but Ji Huai said first, "Are you hungry? You can eat now."
Jiang Jie saw the lunch box on the bedside: "..."
She felt sorry for him.
Ji Huai took the lunch box, and she quickly reached out to pick it up, still a little anxious: "I'll just come, you rest."
He didn't let go, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly: "It's a minor surgery, don't worry."
Jiang Jie still rushed to do some work, otherwise she would feel bad.
She looked at the boxes of food and frowned: "You can't eat chili peppers, it's not good for wound healing."
There is not only spicy chicken on the table, but also minced pepper fish head and curry beef brisket.
"I know." Ji Huai handed her the chopsticks, nodded, and placed the dishes in front of her. While eating, he gave her a piece of beef brisket, "Try it, curry coconut beef brisket."
After he finished speaking, he didn't say much and just ate his meal silently. All that was placed in front of him were light soups.
Jiang Jie looked at the fragrant food in front of her, slightly opening her pink lips, then seemed to think of something, and finally said nothing.
Suddenly she felt that Ji Huai was very kind to her, he cared about her feelings and remembered what she liked to eat. She originally thought it was because Yuan Hongjun was making trouble and he felt guilty, but when she thought about it more carefully, it seemed that he had always been like this
He used to ask her what she wanted to eat before eating, and occasionally brought her vegetables to let her try more.
"What are you thinking about? Aren't you hungry?" Ji Huai's voice brought her thoughts back from her wandering thoughts.
"I'm hungry." She took the piece of beef and put it in her mouth. The aroma was rich in the mouth. The salty and slightly spicy curry was wrapped in the sweet coconut aroma, and the beef brisket was chewy. "This is quite delicious." She said , subconsciously picked up a piece and put it into his bowl. It was almost put into his bowl before he remembered that he couldn't eat it.
Jiang Jie's hand stopped in mid-air, while Ji Huai took small bites of the food and said warmly, "Just eat it."
"...Okay." She took her hand back and put it in her bowl, lowering her eyebrows in thought.
When did she develop this habit? Ji Huai didn't seem too surprised and acted very naturally. She couldn't help but recall in her mind, was this how they got along before? Never cared about it.
It was okay not to care, but when I started to care, something was really wrong.
The food he ordered was delicious. She finished the whole bowl of rice and ate some of the three dishes. Jiang Jie looked at Ji Huai again. In front of him were several plates of dishes that were so bland and unappetizing.
well.
She was too embarrassed to eat the rest of the meal.
"One more thing." He took another pair of chopsticks and picked up the beef brisket for her. The potatoes inside were also very good, soft and delicious.
"Stop it." Jiang Jie felt a little guilty and whispered, "You just had surgery, I can't have such an appetite."
Thinking about it this way, she felt quite guilty.
Ji Huai chuckled softly and said in a gentle tone: "If you didn't remind me, I wouldn't have known I had the surgery." He put a few more pieces of meat into her bowl, moved the chopsticks aside, and removed the chicken from the dried chili peppers. Pick them out, place them next to your plate, and put the useless boxes in a trash bag.
"It means the recovery from the surgery is going well." She looked at his normal expression and said slowly.
"Yeah." Ji Huai's voice was low and he didn't worry about it. He filled a bowl of soup and placed it next to her.
Jiang Jie looked at the bowl of soup, looked at him and said seriously: "I'm here to take care of you."
She had never taken care of a patient before, so she didn't sleep much last night. She was thinking and rehearsing in her mind, fearing that she would be in a hurry when the time came.
It's completely useless now.
"I don't need to take care of you." After Ji Huai finished speaking, he looked at the bowl of soup again, "It's a bit cold, drink some."
He really doesn't need care. If the doctor hadn't told him to stay for one day, he could have gone back the same day.
evening.
Jiang Jie was sitting on the sofa with a pillow in her arms, looking at Ji Huai who was working with a computer not far away.
She deliberately set aside a few days because she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to take care of him, but he ended up being even busier than her, just like someone who had nothing to do.
Ji Huai was on the video call. His slender hands were sliding on the computer, looking at the data on it. His voice was deep, mellow and magnetic.
Jiang Jie thought his voice was pleasant. She supported her chin with her hands and tilted her head to look at him.
"Yes, it will take a few days. Send the information to me first." After Ji Huai finished making arrangements, he hung up the phone and put the phone aside when his eyes collided with hers on the sofa.
Jiang Jie suddenly felt embarrassed about being caught red-handed and quickly looked away.
"Are you going to sleep?" Ji Huai seemed not to notice anything strange and asked her.
"Um."
…
When she got into bed, she was a little cautious, always treating him as a patient, for fear of hurting him if she bumped him. Instead, Ji Huai stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her slim waist, and covered her with the quilt with his other hand.
Jiang Jie was not a shy person. Although she felt a little more uncomfortable when being held by him, the old couple had long been used to it, and they slowly leaned towards him again, with very gentle movements.
"It's awkward to sleep like this." Ji Huai moved and reached out under her neck. She also habitually raised her head, pillowed it on his arm, and lay sideways in his arms.
His hand stretched upward, covering the back of her head, lowering his eyes and saying to her: "I'll get up early tomorrow to have the discharge surgery, go back early."
"Won't you wait a little longer?" she blurted out.
Ji Huai suddenly laughed loudly: "It's not a good place. What will you do if you stay longer?"
Jiang Jie: "Observe."
The doctor said that it was normal for her to stay in the hospital for a few days, and that it was normal for her to stay under observation for a few days after surgery.
"It's okay." Ji Huai's hand on the back of her head unconsciously patted her twice.
"Does it hurt when you press it?" She looked at his hand with a concerned tone.
"Why does this hurt? You usually don't press too much." Ji Huai bent his eyes, looked at her small and delicate cheeks, and said in a low voice, "I just performed a small operation, so why are you so worried?"
His words succeeded in making Jiang Jie feel uneasy, and her emotions surged. She buried her head in his arms and made excuses for herself: "Of course I'm worried, I'm your wife."
His legal partner, the one who signed the consent form for the surgery, both of them were tied together.
"Well..." Ji Huai nodded, the hand on the back of her head rubbed her hair, his head lowered, and his warm breath sprayed in her ears, "I think Madam sounds better."
"Oh, Mrs. Ji." Jiang Jie laughed, deliberately joking, "Mr. Ji's wife."
"It sounds pretty good." He acknowledged it seriously.
The smile in her eyes suddenly deepened, and she raised her head in his arms: "It's okay, I just rarely hear it."
Ji Huai: "What do you hear the most? Miss Jiang? Or Teacher Jiang?"
Before she could answer, Ji Huai suddenly moved forward and placed his thin lips on her forehead. The two of them were really close, and his breath was all over her body. Her head suddenly got stuck again, and her originally organized language was directly confused.
What were you going to get back to him
When Jiang Jie saw him looking at her, she said, "Anyway, it's not Mrs. Ji. Many students think I'm not married."
This is the truth, and the bold student dares to confess, and she can still receive love letters.
Hearing this, Ji's face changed slightly, and he seemed a little depressed and unhappy: "Why do you think you are not married?"
Jiang Jie slightly raised her slender hand, placed it in front of him and shook it: "I'm not wearing a wedding ring."
"Why aren't you wearing it?" He took her hand and put it in his palm.
"What's that look in your eyes? Did you buy me a wedding ring?" Jiang Jie frowned and didn't break away, questioning slightly with a smile.
Ji Huai suddenly restrained his emotions: "..."
When the two got married, he did not buy her a diamond ring. He hurriedly obtained a certificate and it was considered married. The diamond rings at the wedding were prepared by the parents of each family. The Ji family and the Jiang family secretly compared each other for their own ostentation. They could be as exaggerated as they wanted. The diamond rings were all pigeon eggs and were suitable for collection but not for daily wear.
"You're in the wrong." Jiang Jie rarely saw him deflated, so she made up for it with a knife.
"Buy it for you," he said immediately.
She looked stunned for a moment, with a slightly surprised expression on her face, as if she didn't expect him to say that.
Ji Huai was also very serious. He even planned the time and asked her when she could buy it.
"I won't go." She didn't care about this, and even found it a bit troublesome.
"Go." He insisted, even a little domineeringly, "I'll buy it for you and then wear it."
"You're being serious." She glanced at him, somewhat dumbfounded, "Okay, don't apologize."
"Well, it's more serious." Ji Huai did not deny it and admitted it openly.
Jiang Jie's eyes fell on their hands again. His hand was currently holding hers.
Ji Huai's chin rested on the top of her head. The two of them were so close that she could hear the strong heartbeat coming from his chest. She became familiar with his breath and felt at ease smelling it.
Then she thought about it, he was her serious husband, no matter what he was curious about, he was hers.
Jiang Jie was startled as soon as this idea came up.
Everyone is hers...
She always thought that she was open-minded and open-minded. If they were together, they would be together. If they wanted to leave halfway, they would bless each other. Now she actually wants to take Ji Huai as her own.
"Hasn't any female student confessed to you?" She was suddenly curious, having never cared about this before.
Ji Huai: "I'm married."
Jiang Jie raised her head and looked at him. He let go of her hand and hugged her instead. She was not a troubled person, so she buried her head in his arms without questioning, closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.
The two of them made a tacit understanding and stopped talking. Ji Huai raised his hand to turn off the light and fell asleep hugging each other.
The next day.
Jiang Jie rushed to go through the discharge procedures. When she came back, Ji Huai had already packed his things, carrying his luggage in one hand, walked over to hold her hand, and then walked out.
"I'll do it." She reached out to pick up the luggage.
"Are you still worried about me?" Ji Huai did not let go, holding her hand and continuing to walk forward, turning to look at her.
"..." Jiang Jie looked into his dark and deep eyes, her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and her breathing was a little erratic.
She did worry about him.
Ji Huai looked away and said in a slightly raised tone, "Go home."
She was led by him, with the corners of her lips slightly raised, she held his hand and followed him,
Um.
go home.
