"Thank you …" Li Tong! " Chu Qing Yan weakly smiled at him, she could not bear to see him worry for her.

The nurse did not know about Chu Qing Yan and her relationship. When they reached the sickroom, she would direct Li Jing Yu to carry her from the bed to the sickbed.

Her heavy arms were strong, and she felt as light as a bird in his hands.

"You've already said thank you many times, I'm tired of hearing it!" Li Jing Yu gently placed Chu Qing Yan on the sickbed and helped the nurse to cover her with a towel.

Calmly lying on the sickbed, only then did Chu Qing Yan really feel that she was alright.

"Li Tong, I really have to trouble you today. It's getting late, let's go back quickly!"

"I'm not going back tonight. I'll stay here with you." As he spoke, he sat back on the bed and patted the hard bed. "I'm worried about you alone."

His words made Chu Qing Yan want to cry. She sniffed and forced the tears back.

"Li Tong, can I trouble you to take out the phone in my bag? I will call my husband and have him accompany me."

Even if Kang Wen Yuan would not come, she did not wish for him to stay here.

"Isn't he on a business trip? I'm afraid he won't be able to return until tomorrow."

When he dialed Kang Wen Yuan's number, Chu Qing Yan heard the mechanical female's voice, and repeated: "The user you have dialed is turned off, I will inform the user you have dialed …"

Her heart turned cold before she hung up the phone.

Chu Qing Yan didn't have any expectations for Kang Wen Yuan, he only hoped that she could stay by her side when she needed him, however … He could not do this small thing.

Chu Qing Yan had never been so disappointed with her own marriage.

She and Kang Wen Yuan were more like guests living under the same roof, and not husband and wife.

Even if Kang Wen Yuan didn't travel, he would try his best to avoid meeting her.

She no longer saw him when she got up in the morning. At noon, they ate at work at the office, and at night, he usually didn't come home until early in the morning.

She wondered if he was really busy. Maybe he didn't want to meet her.

On weekends, he would also never be at home. Chu Qing Yan never asked him where he had been.

She and he each had their own lives, their own jobs, and they really did not interfere with each other.

"What's wrong? The phone can't be reached?"

Li Jing Yu stared at Chu Qing Yan's lonely and sad face, and asked worriedly.

Although she didn't want to tell Li Jing Yu the truth, her nose soured as she said with red eyes: "The phone is turned off."

"Don't cry, don't cry, I'll stay here with you."

Li Jing Yu fumbled as he took out a tissue from his pocket to wipe Chu Qing Yan's face.

Inadvertently, tears had already begun gushing out from her reddened eyes, one after another, converging onto the wound in her heart.

When Chu Qing Yan was at her weakest, she found this man, who she had only met a few times, accompanying her.

"Thank you …" Li Tong. "

Chu Qing Yan stretched out her hand to grab a tissue, but he dodged it.

He sat on the edge of the bed and focused on her. He gently said, "Lie down and don't move. I'll help you wipe it."

Chu Qing Yan was as if she was possessed and did not move, obediently allowing him to wipe her face.

"Thank you …" Perhaps it was the effect of the anesthetic on her nerves, but she had lost most of her ability to speak and could only repeat her thanks.

Li Jing Yu was able to shed tears for Chu Qing Yan without being distracted, but she could not just accept it. The feeling of his heart beating faster became more and more intense.

Chu Qing Yan's emotions had finally stabilized, and tears no longer flowed out.

Li Jing Yu wiped the tears off her face, and said in a serious tone: "Chu Qing Yan, I'm warning you again, you're not allowed to say thank you, and you're not allowed to call me Li Tong. I treat you as a friend, but you're not grateful, I'm angry."

He purposely put on a straight face, making his long and narrow phoenix eyes wide open. His mouth was also pressed into a firm straight line. He looked very imposing, and was not to be looked down upon.

"Li Jing Yu, don't be angry, I definitely won't say thank you."

Chu Qing Yan smiled at him ingratiatingly, but as the muscles on his face loosened, he also laughed.
