“What are you doing?”

Seeing how Zhan Lichuan had already sat up on his own and was even trying to put on his shoes, Jing Qian quickly rushed over to hold him. She placed her hand on the part of his back where the sutures were, afraid that he might tear it open. Then, without her famous unique, dragging tone, she said to Zhan Lichuan with a hint of frustration, “What are you trying to do? We just close this wound, and it can be torn open easily!”

Zhan Lichuan then realized that he was able to sit up on his own and could even move his legs.

He was extremely delighted. The pain that came from his back, which caused a sharp, chilly look in his eyes, was immediately softened from the happiness of being able to move his legs.

As he turned to Jing Qian and saw the anger in her eyes, he noticed how much less the anger she was showing through her voice was in comparison.

“I’m sorry, Qianqian.”

There were no excuses, only a simple, regretful apology.

As a big boss, Jing Qian was the cla.s.sical type where she preferred the ‘soft’ approach over the ‘hard’ ones.

Seeing how Zhan Lichuan was apologizing to her with such sincerity, the dissatisfaction in her slowly disappeared, and the only thing left in her heart was the hidden worry that she had for him.

It felt as if someone was holding onto her heart and it was being twisted—it just felt uncomfortable.

“You don’t have to apologize.” Jing Qian’s voice turned soft and continued, “I’m just worried about your pain. Plus, if you tear it open, you may have to return to the operating theater. Wouldn’t we waste more time then?”

Perhaps it was because he wasn’t under any anesthesia during the surgery and along with the pain and blood loss, Zhan Lichuan was looking ghastly pale at this moment. His pale, white face paired with his deep features made him look even sicker.

Zhan Lichuan stared at Jing Qian. There was a hint of happiness after learning that Jing Qian cares about him and another hint of obedience after being lectured by his wife, along with grat.i.tude and love, in his eyes.

As she was being stared at by this man who had an extremely beautiful face, Jing Qian panicked, and she decided to change the topic, “I know that you’re worried but Butler Xu already said that you’re the only person that grandfather cares about. If you go to him in this state and he learns that you tore your wound apart causing an infection that leads to a fever and coupled with the state that your heart is in, wouldn’t you cause even more trouble for him?”

“But I’m really worried.” Zhan Lichuan lowered his head and was completely filled with guilt. “It’s my fault that I didn’t protect him.”

“Did you send your men over to him?” Jing Qian asked.

“I did. When you answered the call from Butler Xu, I already told the rest of them to stay by his side.”

“That’s good. I’ll talk to Professor Hong Lu, and she will be following us to the hospital to check up on grandfather for us. Don’t worry. As long as he is still being treated, it means that we still have the chance to save him. As long as Hong Lu is there, she will be able to save grandfather’s life. We will be there as well.”

Upon hearing that he would be able to go as well, Zhan Lichuan’s eyes lit up with hope.

“We’re going as well?”

“Aren’t you worried about him? Instead of being worried about him here, why don’t we see him personally?”

Jing Qian had already turned around and informed Hong Lu about the situation, and as Zhan Lichuan looked at this scene, his eyes were suddenly filled with tears. It is a sense of happiness that he has never had and has never experienced.

“Alright, Professor Hong Lu has already promised that she’ll do it for us. She will be leaving now. You’re still recovering, which is why we may be a little slower than her. Calm down. Grandfather is a kind man, and he would be blessed by the G.o.ds. He will be fine.”

“Okay.”

“Professor Hong Lu told me that there is a group of men outside. Are they yours?”

“Some of them.”

In other words, there are some that aren’t?

That’s peculiar.

“Would your men be able to take care of it?”

“Don’t worry about it.”

After being rea.s.sured by Zhan Lichuan, Jing Qian immediately held onto him and placed him in his magical wheelchair.
