Chapter 1183: Chapter 1183: The Magic of Time

“Jian Jian, you haven’t eaten anything since last night, you must be starving! Have something to eat first, let’s put everything else aside for now,” Chu Liyuan said, taking out food he had prepared earlier.

“This is…” Jian Dan looked at the congee in the thermos container.

“This was made in the back kitchen of the hospital canteen. Right now, it’s best to eat something light,” he explained.

“Did Uncle make it himself?” Although it was just a plain bowl of congee, the care it carried was immense.

“Here~” Chu Liyuan had already brought a spoonful of congee to Jian Dan’s lips.

“Mmm! Tasty!” Jian Dan’s face was sweet with a smile. “Uncle, I’m alright now, you should hurry back to work!”

“I’m here to keep you company!”

“Really, it’s not necessary, work is important!”

“To me, the most important thing is always you!

Moreover, I’ve mostly settled everything already, don’t worry! Li Jing can handle the remaining work!”

“Really?”

“When have I ever lied to you?”

“Uncle, I know asking this might make me seem too sentimental, but if I don’t ask, it will keep bothering me,” Jian Dan confessed.

“What is it?”

“I haven’t really disrupted Uncle’s work, have I?”

“Are you doubting your husband’s capabilities?”

“Of course, I trust you. It’s just that every time something concerns me, you seem to…” Jian Dan’s voice trailed off softly.

“You know that? If you’re so aware of how important you are to me, why don’t you take better care of yourself?”

“I know I was wrong!”

“Every time you admit your mistake, the attitude is quite good, but the behavior never changes!” Uncle returned to his gentle demeanor after a moment of strictness.

“Because I know Uncle will always forgive me!” Jian Dan lifted her eyes to look at Chu Liyuan, her eyes brimming with smiles.

“Are you that sure of me?”

“Hehe~ I can’t help it, Uncle just likes to be taken for granted by me, doesn’t he?” Jian Dan raised her hand to wrap it around Chu Liyuan’s neck.

“Yes!” Chu Liyuan raised his hand to touch Jian Dan’s still somewhat pale cheeks.

Xia Mengjiao, who had been by the side all this time, finally couldn’t take it anymore and escaped from the ward to the corridor…

“These two really are too much, shamelessly flaunting their affection right in front of me,” Xia Mengjiao muttered to herself as she sat down in the corridor on a chair.

“Xia Mengjiao?” As Mengjiao was sitting on the chair and looking at her phone, a voice reached her ears. She looked up to see…”It really is you. I thought from afar it looked like you, but I didn’t expect it to actually be you!” A man dressed in white slowly walked towards Mengjiao.

“You are…” Mengjiao stood up, looking at the man approaching her slowly, “Qian Zihao?”

“It’s me!”

“What are you doing here?”

“I’m a nurse here!”

“A nurse?” Mengjiao looked at Qian Zihao up and down with disbelief.

Qian Zihao was a middle school classmate of both Xia Mengjiao and Jian Dan, but he had left their middle school before graduating. Back then, Qian Zihao didn’t like studying and would always mess around with troublemakers outside of school. Who would have thought that he’d become a nurse?

“Surprised, aren’t you, to see me as a nurse?

Even I sometimes can’t believe it, that I’ve actually become a nurse,” he said.

“So, you…”

“Actually, some things happened that made me want to become a nurse!”

“Oh?”

“I went abroad with my parents, and at first, I kept fooling around just like before. But during a severe earthquake, our whole family was buried in the ruins. It was my mother’s body that shielded me, which is why I survived. When the firefighters found us, my mother had been dead for a long time. They took me to the hospital, where a doctor looked after me all the while. When I was finally discharged after recovering, I received the news that the doctor had died from head injuries caused by falling rocks during the earthquake’s rescue efforts.

The experience deeply affected me, and knowing my own capabilities, I knew I couldn’t become a doctor, so I became a nurse instead to help more people.”

“You’re doing well for yourself now,” Mengjiao said, not knowing what words of comfort to offer to Qian Zihao, because any words seemed particularly pale in the face of life and death.
