"No, I don't want to go!" Mint refused quickly, reaching for the car door and preparing to get out of the car.
However, she didn't know why, she felt so weak and tired, her joints even hurt, and she couldn't get out of the car.
"Don't be brave. If you feel unwell, you have to see a doctor immediately!" Guan Shouheng gently but forcefully pulled her back into his arms and clasped her arms tightly, very forcefully.
"I'm not sick..." Mint still refused and pushed him away, but she couldn't do it at all.
Guan Shouheng frowned worriedly, "The doctor has the final say whether you are sick or not. I will take you to the hospital."
"I said no more..." Mint didn't want to listen to him, but he was so weak that he didn't even have the strength to argue with him. He was like a powerless rag doll, falling softly on his arm.
Curved.
Guan Shouheng carefully helped her adjust her position so that she could be more comfortable. At the same time, he turned to look at the driver in front and said urgently, "Go to the nearest hospital!"
The driver quickly turned the car around and drove towards a small hospital near the small attic.
They arrived at the hospital quickly, but Mint didn't have the strength to get out of the car. Guan Shouheng quickly supported her with his arms, "Mint, how are you?"
"It's...ok..." she insisted through gritted teeth, but her face was as pale as a piece of paper, and her cheeks were slightly flushed. Guan Shouheng was shocked and quickly reached out to touch her forehead. She had a fever!
She actually said yes?
"I'll carry you in!" He held her whole body in his arms and walked quickly to the emergency room of the hospital.
After a diagnosis, the doctor asked a few more questions, and finally announced the conclusion, "It's acute gout. I'll be hospitalized for observation first."
Mint was then transferred to the ward.
Guan Shouheng looked at the weak figure on the bed and blamed himself in his heart. When they had just eaten, he had tried his best to stop her drinking, but he didn't expect that something went wrong.
He cautiously approached the bed, tucked her in, then turned around and left the ward.
This hospital is very small, and this ward is already in the best condition, but it still does not have a bathroom. Under the guidance of the nurse, he went to the end of the corridor and used the plastic basin he just asked the nurse to buy to collect water. The doctor said
Yes, cold compress is effective.
Guan Shouheng hurried back and quickly returned to the ward. He twisted out a towel and wiped Mint's face first.
Feeling the chill, Mint grumbled in discomfort, but she didn't have the strength to open her eyes, let alone dodge. Only her tightly furrowed brows showed her discomfort.
"Mint, just be patient, you'll be fine soon." He comforted in a low voice, gently brushing away the sweaty hair on her forehead and cheeks.
He twisted the towel again and gave her a cold compress.
The cold feeling made her shrink again subconsciously, and his chest also tightened hard.
He quickly held down her trembling body, and slowly held her small palm with his big hand.
During the meal just now, they ate the same thing, and he drank a lot more wine than she did. However, he was fine, but she fell ill. The doctor said that this was also related to the individual's constitution and varied from person to person.
But he knew that she had been in good health before. She had been well-fed and well-off since she was a child, and had a good foundation. But now she was so fragile. It must have been caused by overwork and illness over the years.
Seeing her sick and weak look, he felt uncomfortable in his heart. He couldn't imagine how she had managed to survive on her own all these years.
Who will take care of her when she is sick? Who will help her when she is hungry or thirsty? Should she continue to work when she is sick, tutor students with a hoarse voice, and lead tour groups in the wind and sun?
The more Guan Shouheng thought about it, the tighter and tighter his heart strings became. He felt like he could hardly breathe. His chest was filled with aches and pains, which were self-blame and guilt, heartache and pity.
He held her hand with one hand and gently stroked her hot cheek with the fingertips of the other. He felt her shrinking and trembling like a frightened little animal, which made his heart even more uncomfortable.
If he could be more rational, more mature, and more comprehensive in thinking and doing things, he would definitely be able to sense her good intentions, and he would definitely not just walk away and leave her alone.
Suffer and suffer in the country.
It is true that he has really hated her over the years, but where can hatred come from without love? The deeper the love, the more painful the hatred.
He couldn't let her go at all! Regardless of whether she had children or not, he couldn't let her go.
If he hated her back then because she took away his child and divorced him, it would be better to say it was because he felt hurt by her.
Her appearance once enriched his entire life. Before the age of 17, his life was almost full of darkness. It was she who filled the hole in his heart. The light in her body drove away the darkness in him, but in the end she turned him away.
He was expelled, leaving his already barren life with nothing.
On the day of the divorce, he didn't even know what he was living for, so he was so confused, but he left resolutely.
Thinking about it now, he was really too irrational and immature back then. He valued a man's self-esteem too much. He was too sensitive and selfish. If he could have taken more care of her feelings at that time, there would be no relationship between them.
There would be such a cold war, and there would not be such a quarrel. The night of grandma's painting exhibition was their breakup, but in fact, many hidden dangers had been laid before that, and that night was just an explosion.
He regretted not only what happened that night, but also everything before.
She did not hesitate to break up with her parents and run away from home to marry him, but he did not give her happiness, failed to fulfill her husband's responsibilities, and failed to keep their children properly...
"I'm sorry, Mint." He lowered his head and murmured an apology.
It was his fault. He failed her back then and failed to protect her now.
"However, the past is in the past. You don't have to worry about anything from now on. I'm here." He held her hand and gently caressed her fingertips with his lips, his movements gentle and like water.
Soon after the reunion, when he learned about her experiences over the years, and when she came back after resigning, he saw her lack of confidence and grievances at work. He felt that he really couldn't be the same as before, and he had to
Help her regain her confidence and style.
Because that's what he owes her.
Therefore, he always looks for opportunities, ostensibly to punish her, but actually to help her. He knows that she can't study or study abroad now, but it doesn't matter, he can help her learn and grow first.
She is very smart and has a good foundation in foreign languages, so as long as she practices more, she will succeed in time. And the workplace experience she lacks also needs to be accumulated step by step.
The relationship between her background and the environment she grew up in made her very stubborn and arrogant. He admired her character very much and knew that it was not that she didn't know how to play tricks, but that she was disdainful of the fact that when she was in Gaofan Academy, she could have her own way.
, but now that she has entered the society and the workplace, it is easy for her to suffer a loss with such a temper. He does not want her to take detours again, so he helps her as much as possible.
However, he knew her temper very well and she would not accept his kindness, so he could only care silently.
He wants her to grow up as soon as possible, become more confident, and become more dazzling. Only in this way can they have a future, otherwise she will always resist him, just like when she forced him away.
"Mint, get well soon. You still have a long, long way to go in the future. There will be countless brilliance and grace waiting for you on the road ahead. I will help you!" He said with a promising tone.
The care and love that cannot be concealed.
I don't know how much time passed, but Mint finally woke up from her drowsiness. She slowly opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling in confusion. She couldn't figure out where she was for a while.
She stood up quickly, and when she moved, the towel on her forehead fell off.
"Are you awake?" A familiar deep male voice sounded.
She turned around when she heard the sound and saw Guan Shouheng, who had just opened the door and entered with many things in his hands.
She was stunned, and then asked in even more astonishment, "What place is this?"
"Hospital." Guan Shouheng quickly approached the hospital bed, helped her lie back, then reached out to touch her forehead, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the fever is gone."
What?
"I have a fever?" She blinked blankly, trying to remember.
"It's not a fever like a cold, it's a fever caused by acute gout." He explained, feeling guilty again.
Acute gout?
Mint quickly regained her memory and couldn't help but feel annoyed. Everyone was eating seafood and drinking beer like that, so why was she so weak?
She also remembered that he originally wanted to send her home, but then she became so sick that she couldn't even walk. It was he who sent her to the hospital, and it was he who carried her to the emergency room.
Remembering that he had seen her fragile and embarrassed look, she felt a wave of embarrassment. She bit her pink lips before speaking with difficulty, "...Thank you."
"You're welcome, that's right." His voice was slightly hoarse.
She subconsciously felt tense and turned her head to look elsewhere. She glanced at the clock on the wall and exclaimed, "Oh my God, it's so late?"
She quickly went to find her bag and her cell phone.
"Don't move around, the doctor said you need to rest." Guan Shouheng didn't know what she was anxious about, he just focused on taking care of her body.
"Where's my bag?" she asked anxiously.
"Here it is." Guan Shouheng reached out and handed her bag over.
Mint quickly took out the cell phone inside and looked down, only to find that her cell phone was turned off.
She was slightly startled, "How could this happen?"
"The doctor said not to disturb you, so I turned off your phone for you so as not to be disturbed by phone calls," he explained.
"Who asked you to make your own decisions?" Mint glared at him angrily. An An must be anxious to death because she hasn't come home so late!
She quickly turned on the phone.
Guan Shouheng was scolded, but he wasn't angry, but he didn't understand why she was so nervous.
"What's the matter with you? Are you waiting for a call?"
"..." Mint couldn't answer and gave him another look.
The startup screen of the phone has finished flashing, and several text messages have come in one after another.
Mint quickly opened her inbox, and all of them were from Wu Yinan.
"Mint, I made braised pork tonight. Wu You and I will send you and An An a bowl now!"
"Mint, why haven't you gone home yet? Do you have to work overtime again?"
"It's so late, Mint, why haven't you come back yet? Your phone is also turned off!"
"Mint, don't worry. Wu You and I will stay at your house tonight. You don't have to worry about An An, but you can reply to me as soon as you turn on the phone!"
When I saw the last text message, a big stone fell in Mint's heart.
Fortunately, Nan Nan and Wu You are here.
Although An An is almost ten years old and is a boy, in her mind, he is still a child, so she will never let her son spend the night at home alone.
Over the years, when she was busy at work, she would definitely send her son to Nan Nan. Likewise, Wu You often stayed at her house.
"Nan Nan, I have been in a meeting at night, so I turned off my phone. Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll be back soon." Mint weaved a white lie and quickly sent a text message. After sending it, he quickly stuffed the phone back.
In the bag.
After putting down her phone, she raised her eyes and saw Guan Shouheng looking at her curiously, and her heart skipped a beat.
"Whose text message is it?"
"Wu Yinan." She didn't lie, but she still felt guilty.
Guan Shouheng's dark eyes narrowed, and he felt a little strange looking at her, but he couldn't explain why.
Mint averted her eyes, lifted the quilt and said, "I'm going back."
"No, the doctor said you need to be hospitalized for observation." He stopped her idea.
"I'm already fine."
"It's not okay anymore. I need more rest."
"I just need to go home and rest!" she insisted.
Guan Shouheng couldn't help but grit his teeth, why is this woman so stubborn?
"You mean you will climb into bed immediately after you get home and sleep well?" He stared at her closely.
"Of course!" she replied quickly.
He snorted softly and said deliberately, "Who said you can rest? Have you forgotten what you summarized?"
"Summary?" She was stunned for a moment and didn't respond.
"Summary of the media meeting! Have you finished writing it? I told you to hand it over to my office tomorrow morning, have you forgotten?" He reminded her maliciously, just not wanting her to leave.
Mint's eyes widened suddenly, God, she really forgot!
But, when she is so ill, why is he still so hard-hearted?
"Guan Shouheng, can't you have some conscience?"
"I'm just doing business!"
Seeing his serious face, Mint was almost furious. She should have known that this man was different now. He was a vicious capitalist!
"Okay, I'll write it to you now!" she said angrily, taking out her notebook and pen from her bag.
Guan Shouheng's eyes tightened, this woman is so damn stubborn!
However, this is better than her going home. At least he can watch her here, and although this hospital is a bit small, at least it is still a hospital. If she feels uncomfortable or something, she can be treated in time.
Mint pulled up the small stand table attached to the hospital bed, bent down at the desk and began to write hard.
Guan Shouheng was so angry that he secretly gritted his teeth and could only watch her carefully, fearing that she would faint from exhaustion or something.
But this woman didn't raise her head or open her eyes, and she kept writing furiously without even looking at him.
He was like a caregiver, always observing her condition and putting a bottle of mineral water on her table.
"Drink some water!" he ordered domineeringly.
"I'm not thirsty." Mint is really not thirsty, and she has no time to drink water now. She just wants to finish writing the summary quickly and then go home quickly.
Guan Shouheng felt helpless and had to drink even if she was not thirsty! The doctor said that in this case, she must drink more water, and drink more than 2000ml of water every day, and then eliminate the toxins in the body as soon as possible.
"Your voice sounds terrible now!" He glanced at her with disdain.
"What does it have to do with you?" She raised her tone subconsciously.
"You are talking to me now, of course it is none of my business. Your voice makes me feel harsh, like noise!" He choked deliberately.
"Who told you to listen? You can leave!" She glared at her fiercely.
"I still want to read your summary!" He reminded her lightly.
"You..." Mint was so angry that his tongue was tied. After giving him a hard look, he angrily picked up the mineral water bottle, raised his head and took a big sip.
She glanced at him, as if she didn't want to be laughed at, and continued to swallow half the bottle.
Continue to write hard.
What are the consequences of drinking half a bottle of mineral water? Naturally, I want to go to the bathroom.
Mint put down the pen in frustration and got out of bed.
"where are you going?"
"Bathroom!" she gritted her teeth.
"Do you want me to accompany you?"
"Thank you, no!"
Guan Shouheng ignored her anger and insisted on helping her to the bathroom door in the corridor.
"Call me if you need anything." He warned.
She didn't answer, leaving him with a heavy slam of the door in annoyance.
The man outside the door raised the corners of his lips lightly.
A nurse on night shift in the corridor came over from a distance, "Mr. Guan, so you are here! I have been looking for you..."
"Is there a problem?"
"Yes, yes." The nurse handed him a sheet, "This is the urine test that Miss Bo will do tomorrow morning. You can put it away and go directly to the laboratory with this tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you." Guan Shouheng put the list away. Because this hospital is small, many examinations cannot be performed at night. All doctors must come during the day tomorrow.
