Twenty days later,
Shi Yunnan couldn’t help yawning as soon as he got off the plane.
He has high requirements for the resting environment. The roar of the plane was difficult to completely cover with earplugs. Coupled with the occasional turbulence of the air current, it was impossible for people to have a good rest.
The biological clock was messed up, and the whole person looked tired.
“Tired?” Luo Lingsheng looked at him distressedly, “I told you to stay in the country. You don’t have to follow me on this trip.“
The investment cooperation between Shi Yunnan and Yuan went very smoothly, and after the setback, Yuan Rui also restrained his young master’s temper.
One of them is responsible for the meticulous creation of the jade necklace, and the other is responsible for recruiting co-designers. Everything is going well so far.
“The person is already, isn’t it too late for Mr. Luo to say this now?”
Shi Yunnan bent down to adjust Luo Lingsheng’s scarf, and said with a smile, “It’s only four or five days, I’m happy to waste this time on you.”
With that, he kissed the man’s thin lips.
A passing traveler saw the intimate contact between the two and immediately rang out cheers in a friendly manner, “Congratulations, wishing you two happiness.”
Shi Yunnan curled his lips and replied to the blessings of passers-by in fluent English.
Qin Jian, who had finished contacting the driver, walked back from the side, “Patriarch, the driver is already waiting at gate R11, we can go there now.”
He glanced at his watch; it was 1 p.m. US time.
“Patriarch, should we go back to the hotel to rest first, or directly go to the medical center of the Bence team?”
Luo Lingsheng came this time to conduct a new round of comprehensive physical examinations so as to facilitate the arrangement of various matters in the follow-up operation. This would take about four to five days.
Shi Yunnan finished making the jade necklace he designed the day before yesterday. There was still a week before the jewelry design auction at the end of the month. When he saw that there was time, he decided to follow Luo Lingsheng.
“Let’s go back to the hotel to rest first, and reschedule the appointment with the Bence team to tomorrow morning.” Luo Lingsheng said.
If Luo Lingsheng were to choose by himself, he would promptly decide to arrange an examination right away. After all, for a busy person like him, time was equivalent to money to a certain extent.
But now that Shi Yunnan was here as well, Luo Lingsheng really couldn’t bear to watch the other party reverse the biological clock and go through the hassle with him.
Qin Jian nodded in understanding.
Bence’s team of experts was a private medical treatment team. Luo Lingsheng had contracted the other party’s medical treatment time for a whole week before he came, so naturally he could make an appointment at any time he wanted.
Shi Yunnan was too sleepy to interrupt. Luo Lingsheng was willing to accommodate him a little in the arrangement, and he was naturally happy.
…
Early the next morning, in suburban New York.
Shi Yunnan accompanied Luo Lingsheng into the private medical center.
It was not the first time Luo Lingsheng had come here. The nurses all remembered this handsome and rich patient from China. After asking Luo Lingsheng to sign the doctor-patient acknowledgement paper, they pushed him into the examination center.
With a thud, the cold iron door isolated Shi Yunnan outside, and he didn’t even have time to say anything in advance.
Shi Yunnan sighed nervously for no reason.
“Mr. Shi, the patriarch isn’t ready for the official operation yet. This is just a routine check that won’t hurt his body.” Shi Yunnan’s emotional ups and downs were noticed by Qin Jian, who tried to comfort him.
Since Luo Lingsheng’s leg injury, whether at home or abroad, they have experienced at least a hundred such inspections.
After a long time, Luo Lingsheng himself and his subordinates, such as Yuan Meng, have become accustomed to it.
“I know that this kind of examination will not hurt the body.” Shi Yunnan stared at the tightly closed examination door and spoke from his heart, “I was afraid that the test results would hurt him once again.”
Sometimes, it was the dashed hope that was the most painful, rather than the doomed bad outcome.
Others all said that Luo Lingsheng’s personality was unapproachable, but Shi Yunnan only secretly rejoiced—
It was already very good that his lover, a person who was so proud to the bone, didn’t go crazy in disappointment after each examination.
“…..”
This time, it was Qin Jian’s turn to be silent.
They firmly believed that Luo Lingsheng, who became the “Luo’s patriarch”, had learned from those fierce battles and easily dominated the fate of many people and things. They took it for granted and forgot—
Putting aside the title of “Luo Patriarch”, Luo Lingsheng was just a patient who “searched for a doctor for many years without success.”
Mr. Shi can see through the fragility that others can’t see through. It’s no wonder that the patriarch has him in his heart.
Just as he was thinking about it, the nurse at the reception brought hot coffee and warm water, saying, “Gentlemen, why don’t you go sit and wait in the lounge next door? Mr. Luo’s examination will probably take about an hour and a half.“
Shi Yunnan took a cup of coffee and gestured for Qin Jian and Yuan Meng to go in and sit down first.
Qin Jian thought that Shi Yunnan needed a quiet space by himself, so he dragged Yuan Meng away without saying a word.
After the two left, Shi Yunnan casually sat down on the iron chair at the entrance of the examination room.
“This gentleman, may I ask if you are Mr. Luo’s boyfriend?” The nurse couldn’t hold back her curiosity.
Shi Yunnan was taken aback for a moment, and then answered slowly, “…Yes, we are already married.”
When the nurse heard his answer, her eyes suddenly lit up with blessings, “Congratulations, you and Mr. Luo are a good match.”
“Thank you.” Shi Yunnan replied with a smile.
“Sir, you know what? You are the envy of many nurses in our medical center.“
Shi Yunnan raised his eyebrows, “Envy me?”
He did not show any dissatisfaction with the chatty nurse but was very grateful that she could accompany him to talk and divert his inexplicable nervousness.
“That’s right.”
“When Mr. Luo came for an examination for the first time, he actually fascinated many of our little nurses as soon as he was admitted to the hospital. Two or three of our colleagues who are normally bold even ran to ask for his contact information during off hours.“
“But unfortunately, they all ended in failure.”
Shi Yunnan had already expected this final result and couldn’t help but smile, “Why did he refuse?”
“Mr. Luo said he already has the love of his life that he puts on the tip of his heart.”
“…..”
A lover at the tip of his heart?
Shi Yunnan was shocked by this description. If he remembered correctly—
When Luo Lingsheng last came here for inspection, not only were the two not together yet, but they also had some misunderstandings and awkwardness.
Under such circumstances, did Luo Lingsheng actually describe himself like this?
The nurse didn’t know Shi Yunnan’s inner emotions and continued, “Dr. Bence originally planned for a four-day examination and rehabilitation treatment, but Mr. Luo ended it in a hurry after it was compressed to three days.”
“Later, we found out that Mr. Luo had been unable to contact his boyfriend, so he was in a hurry to return to China.”
“Sir, who doesn’t want a boyfriend who always keeps you in his heart? Of course you deserve our envy.“
Shi Yunnan’s palms were warmed by the hot coffee, and even his heart was pounding warmly. Luo Lingsheng was indifferent in front of him and never told him that there was such a thing.
However, suddenly becoming the object of “envy” in other people’s mouths, Shi Yunnan inexplicably felt a little pleased.
…
The one and a half-hour inspection was finally over.
When Luo Lingsheng came out in a wheelchair, the whole person showed a rare tiredness.
Shi Yunnan couldn’t sit still, “Why are you so tired?”
“Don’t worry, it’s just some necessary standing and walking data tests.”
A tall male doctor came out of the examination room with a relaxed expression.
“Mr. Luo, all your numerical values meet the surgical standards.”
This man is Dr. Bence.
“However, you still have to undergo a period of pre-operative training before proceeding to surgery.“
“Pre-operative training?”
“Yes, because Mr. Luo’s condition is much better than I thought, unlike other sedentary patients with severe muscle atrophy and nerve necrosis…“
But Luo Lingsheng was different. He had never given up any of his rehab training after his leg injury.
“I have discussed this with Dr. Michele and believe that proper preoperative training can also allow Mr. Luo’s value to reach a peak number. Under these circumstances, the success rate of the operation can be further increased.“
“Of course, it’s just an inference in a good direction.” Dr. Bence paused.
“But I still have to say in advance, even if the surgery is very successful as we envisioned, the post-operative rehabilitation process will not be easy as well. Please be prepared, Mr. Luo.“
Luo Lingsheng felt like a person who had been at the bottom of a dark cliff all year round, capturing a faint but lingering light. His ever so tense heartstrings loosened, “I understand.”
“If possible, please ask Mr. Luo to continue coming to our medical center for data monitoring in the next three days. Don’t rush to buy a plane ticket and go back like last time.“
Dr. Bence made a joke.
The better the patient’s physiological state, the better for their doctor, of course.
Luo Lingsheng looked at Shi Yunnan while remembering his last experience.
Shi Yunnan, who had just learned the truth from the nurse’s mouth, met his eyes and smiled immediately, “Doctor Bence, he can’t escape this time. I’m here to supervise him in person.“
“…..”
Luo Lingsheng quickly reacted and asked in Chinese, “You know everything?”
Shi Yunnan didn’t hide it, “Miss Nurse told me.”
Although Dr. Bence couldn’t understand the interaction between the two, the witty man quickly guessed Shi Yunan’s identity, “That’s good, you are Mr. Luo’s important person.”
When foreigners speak, they are always concise and straightforward.
Shi Yunnan and Luo Lingsheng looked at each other and smiled.
Probably because the test results were better than expected, both of them were in a good mood.
Bence returned to being a doctor again, “Please rest assured, Mr. Luo, I will appropriately reduce your exercise to avoid overwork injury. Now you can go and have a good meal.“
“Okay, thank you, Dr. Bence.”
This was answered by Shi Yunnan.
After Dr. Bence and the nurses all left, Luo Lingsheng focused his attention on Shi Yunnan, “Are you tired after waiting outside?”
“I’m not tired, compared to you, how can I be tired?”
Shi Yunnan shoved the coffee he had only taken a sip of into his lover’s hand, rightfully so, “This coffee is too bitter for me to drink.”
Luo Lingsheng took it in silence, and suddenly fished out a piece of candy from his pocket.
It’s still the familiar fruit candy package.
Shi Yunnan took it with a smile. He already tasted sweetness even before the candy entered his mouth, “Why do you keep candy on your body at all times? Didn’t you say you didn’t like it when I gave it to you the last time?“
“I don’t dislike it.” Luo Lingsheng replied very briefly.
He watched Shi Yunnan put the candy in his mouth and added, “If you like it, I’ll keep it for you.”
Shi Yunnan glanced left and right and quickly stole a kiss from Luo Lingsheng’s lips. The sweetness spread out, “Luo Lingsheng.”
“Hmm?”
“I seem to like you more.”
Shi Yunnan wasn’t a person who easily talked about love. If he can, he will definitely say those three words to Luo Lingsheng seriously one day in the future.
Shi Yunnan looked at the time, “Are you hungry? I want to take you to a restaurant for dinner.“
“Okay, you can arrange it.”
