Chapter 278 - 278 278 So Small It Only Fits You and Me

Chapter 278: Chapter 278: So Small It Only Fits You and Me Chapter 278: Chapter 278: So Small It Only Fits You and Me That night, Sheng Siyuan again slept in this hospital room, and the duty nurse had grown accustomed to the sight.

“How’s the company doing recently?”

In the still of the night, the two squeezed into the small hospital bed, so close they could only embrace each other.

To alleviate the awkwardness, Yin Hehe asked the question while in this man’s arms.

In the darkness, the man closed his eyes wearily, smelling the faint fragrance of the woman’s hair in his embrace, he showed a satisfied expression.

“It’s fine,” he said lightly.

Yin Hehe, hearing this, didn’t know what else to talk about. Later, she fell asleep sweetly in the warm embrace of this man.

An unprecedented comfort.

Of course, with her favorite scent and a sense of security, she slept very well.

A good night’s sleep.

The next morning, when she awoke, she found the man’s figure still in the ward, and she was instantly elated.

“You haven’t left?”

“Mm, I’ll leave after you finish your morning treatment.”

Sheng Siyuan approached slowly and deliberately, his gaze so tender it seemed as if it could drown someone in it.

Plainly speaking, he was just worried and wanted to make sure personally that there was nothing wrong with the medication this time.

Yin Hehe felt unreasonably warm inside early in the morning.

“Okay, then I’ll get up first, and then go have breakfast.”

She climbed out of bed and quickly ran into the washroom.

The man watched her indulgently from behind, turned to get her coat, but saw the screen of the phone he had placed on the table light up.

[President, Xiahou Maolin’s whereabouts that day have been fully investigated. It seems he came to the capital on purpose, and moreover, after seeing you, he left again.]

The message was from Xu Guannan.

He came specifically to see him?

Seeing the message, Sheng Siyuan’s lips curled in a sneer, “I’m so honored? Are you sure he didn’t come for his son?”

“No, he never went to the research institute!”

Xu Guannan sent another message.

Seeing this, the man put his hands in his pockets, his gaze fixed outside, eventually as if it was enveloped by a layer of frost, appearing full of a penetrating coldness.

He was certain he didn’t believe what Xiahou Maolin said the night before.

Yet, this person actually made a special trip to Y City to see him, which could not help but raise his suspicions.

“Xu Guannan, I need you to check something for me.”

“Tell me…” Xu Guannan immediately waited for instructions.

However, he could have never anticipated that, after pondering for a moment, this man would give him a task that left him dumbstruck.

“Look into my mother’s life in the capital before she got married. Remember, I want every person she was close to thoroughly checked out!”

The man commanded with gritted teeth and a chilling tone.

That tone, as if when he said these words, one could hear the suppressed humiliation, making his voice unusually deep and harsh.

Xu Guannan was inwardly shocked.

Why on earth check the old lady’s past? She’s no longer among the living.

But in the end, he didn’t ask anything and just agreed to the task.

Sheng Siyuan turned off his phone.

Just then, Yin Hehe came out of the washroom. Seeing him, she immediately came over.

“Alright, let’s go have breakfast,” she said, looking up at him with her amber eyes shining like stars.

Sheng Siyuan’s lips curved up inexplicably.

“Okay.”

He draped the coat he had picked out over her shoulders, and within moments, they held hands and went out.

The breakfast at the Drug Rehabilitation Center was quite rich in the morning, featuring local specialties as well as many tastes from the south.

Yin Hehe led the man to the food service area.

“Husband, what do you want to eat? How about a bowl of eight-treasure porridge? Then I’ll fry some dumplings for you. You have a weak stomach, so eating these won’t hurt it.”

Yin Hehe made decisions for the man by herself while looking at the wide array of options inside.

The man at her side had a slight raise in his eyes.

He found that he liked this feeling of being arranged by her, from daily meals to clothing and dressing. Everything was organized for him, and that’s when he felt most comfortable.

The two of them brought their breakfast back to the table.

“The dumplings are a bit hot. Have some porridge first to cool them down.”

As they began to eat, Yin Hehe saw the golden dumplings in front of the man and again tenderly reminded him.

The man obediently followed her advice.

The soft and sweet porridge warmed his stomach and indeed made him feel much more comfortable.

“You should get good treatment here for the time being. Dr. Qin said that if you actively participate, it will speed up your recovery. So, try not to go out wandering around.”

After he finished his bowl of porridge, he pondered for a moment before speaking.

Upon hearing this, Yin Hehe laughed, “Where could I go? How could I leave if you don’t come?”

“That’s true…” As the man said this, his heart also settled.

Not long after, the two had finished their breakfast and returned to the ward, where the nurse brought in the medicine.

“Go wait outside. I’ll be just outside,” said Yin Hehe, as she saw that the treatment was about to begin, and subconsciously tightened her grip on her hand, turning to the man to keep him from following her in.

Reverting to the original treatment method naturally meant the original pain.

But the man refused.

“It’s okay, I’ll be right here with you,” he said, taking her icy cold hands into his firm grip and leading her inside.

That morning, Yin Hehe finally let the man see what she was like during an episode: her pain, scratching, twitching…

She was entirely without her usual calm and graceful demeanor.

Yet, from start to finish, the man never let go of her. He held her tightly in his arms, even as she bit his hand hard enough to draw blood during her torment.

He never loosened his grip.

“Mr. Sheng, are you alright?”

As things finally calmed down, the nurse opened the door and saw the man’s blood-covered hand. She promptly expressed her concern.

Sheng Siyuan shook his head.

“I’m fine. Check on how she’s doing,” he said as he let go of the woman in his arms and rose from the bed.

The nurse promptly went over to Yin Hehe, who had passed out from exhaustion.

Actually, the situation had already improved considerably.

Being able to endure it by herself in such a short amount of time indicated that the addiction inside her wasn’t as severe.

“Mr. Sheng, don’t worry, she’s just fainted from exhaustion. Let me take you to get your wound dressed,” the nurse suggested after checking Yin Hehe and finding no issues, still showing concern for the man.

But the man still did not move.

He casually grabbed some gauze from the nurse’s tray and wrapped up his wound, then his gaze fell back onto the pale face of the woman on the bed.

“In the next few days, please watch over my wife carefully, especially make sure she doesn’t go out. Also, if any strangers come looking for her, remember to call me immediately. Don’t let them in!” Sheng Siyuan instructed the nurse gravely as he stood in front of the hospital bed.

Nurse: “…”

Here… who else could possibly come looking for her?
