Chapter 613: 570 Meeting him alone, are you not angry? (2 more)

It didn’t take long for Lin Jiaojiao to start experiencing severe pain, Lu Han watched in the ward, recording the frequency of the pain and its symptoms, all of which were also captured by the surveillance video before.

The pain tonight lasted for half an hour.

After half an hour, Lin Jiaojiao lay on the bed drenched in sweat, gasping for air—another difficult episode had passed.

Once her consciousness returned, Lin Jiaojiao saw Lu Han, who hadn’t left yet, her face pale, "Sorry for making you see that embarrassing scene."

"Once Elder Tan gets better, I need to let him know about all the suffering you’ve endured today."

Lin Jiaojiao shook her head, "How is he doing now?"

"He’s been discharged, no longer in our hospital."

"Discharged? That’s good, as long as he’s alright, that’s all that matters for the both of us."

"Jiaojiao, have confidence, you both will get better."

"Yeah."

"Then I’ll be going now."

"Okay."

Lin Jiaojiao settled into the hospital from then on, her clothes and toiletries all kept here.

After Lu Han left, Lin Jiaojiao locked the door, then went to the bathroom to shower, changed out of her clothes, washed and hung them up to dry, and then took a can of eight-treasure porridge from the storage cabinet to drink.

Lu Zhu and Chen Duoduo had brought her a lot of eight-treasure porridge, bird’s nest porridge, silver ear soup, and oatmeal during their last visit. Since the onset of the severe pain, her appetite had diminished significantly.

She visibly lost weight every day.

Even the eight-treasure porridge, she couldn’t finish a whole can.

After the severe pain subsided, she would feel much better, and at that time, she would stroll in the small garden downstairs. However, her complexion was likely too pale, resembling a ghost.

She usually avoided crowds, not wanting to frighten anyone.

Lu Han hurried from the hospital to the restaurant where Tang Su and Zhao Xinlan were eating roasted duck. Both had finished eating, and Su Yangming also came over, the two men entering one after the other, with Lu Han coming in first followed by Su Yangming.

Lu Han hadn’t had dinner yet, having just grabbed a sandwich and some milk in the afternoon.

Tang Su had packed a portion of roast duck with rice for him, and seeing the dinner prepared for him, Lu Han smiled knowingly.

"Lu Han, you must be busy having just taken over a hospital," Su Yangming asked politely.

"It’s manageable, Bai Dingxian is taking care of the hospital administration, it’s just that I’ve recently encountered a rather tricky case that requires research," Lu Han knew Tang Su hadn’t mentioned the situation with Jiaojiao and Elder Tan to them.

"You’re about to get married, and after the wedding, there’s the honeymoon. Work is important, but so is your wife," Su Yangming reminded kindly, worried that Lu Han might neglect Tang Su if he got too busy with work.

"Yes, I understand, Uncle," Lu Han responded with a smile.

His wife was someone he had gone to great lengths to marry, investing a lot of time and effort, not to mention other endeavors, so he would never let work detract from his attention to Tang Su.

As for Tang Su, she was not the kind of woman who needed her husband to be home every day to keep her company; she was understanding of Lu Han’s work, even if it meant he got incredibly busy for the sake of strangers she didn’t know—she would never complain.

After all, she had grown accustomed to her parents being on call 24 hours a day since she was a child.

Some people around her thought the scenarios depicted on television, where a call comes in and doctors have to rush to the hospital to treat patients no matter what they’re doing, were exaggerated.

If a doctor never encounters such an issue in their entire career, it means they’ve had quite good luck in their professional life. After all, her parents had been through it.

When she was a child and had a fever, her parents would receive a call and have to go to work, leaving her in the care of her grandparents. At that time, her grandmother would hold her and feel especially sorry for her.

She said she must have not chosen her reincarnation wisely, ending up in a family where both parents were doctors.

Now, she was marrying a doctor, but perhaps it was because Lu Han was too good, too handsome; anyway, her grandmother was extremely pleased with Lu Han, not minding his profession at all.

When she was little, her grandmother had indeed cautioned her, telling her not to marry a doctor when she grew up.

So, all of this is fate, predestined, and nobody can change that.

In her lifetime, she was just meant to have a connection with people who were doctors.

After they parted ways, Tang Su took the car keys from Lu Han. Her driving skills weren’t great, but she could still drive slowly.

Lu Han obediently took the passenger seat, and on the passenger side, he quickly finished his dinner.

Tang Su had also thoughtfully prepared a beverage.

When Lu Han finished eating, Tang Su asked about Jiaojiao’s condition, "How was Jiaojiao today?"

"Same as before, pain for half an hour; as for other changes, there hasn’t been any for now."

Tang Su nodded, "I’ll go see her tomorrow then."

"No need, Wu Jie will find you tomorrow to choose a designer. He sent me a message earlier, saying he had preselected several decoration plans. You’ll make the final decision on the design."

"Tomorrow? I’m meeting him alone, and you’re not jealous?" Knowing Lu Han was tired from the day, Tang Su asked with a playful raised eyebrow.

"I’ll have Tongtong go with you," Lu Han said after some thought.

"Tongtong? Ah, I haven’t spent proper time with the kid for several days." She had just accepted the child back, and he had just lost his biological parents. Tang Su felt quite guilty about Tongtong.

"It’s okay, Tongtong is sensible and knows we’re busy."

"Mhm."

Sensible he may be, but just because a child understands, it doesn’t mean one should ignore a child’s normal needs.

"Let’s go, home. At this hour, we can still play with him with a Rubik’s Cube or something."

"Okay, seatbelt."

After they got home, Tongtong hadn’t gone to bed yet. He sat in the living room where Bai Wei had put on an animated show that kids liked, but the little guy showed no interest in the TV program and was only focused on the Rubik’s Cube in his hands.

He had been playing with the Rubik’s Cube for two days now and still hadn’t figured out the knack. Bai Wei told him to look at the formulas in the instruction manual, but the little fellow had his ideas, and he was also quite stubborn. He refused to look no matter what, insisting on figuring it out by himself.

Bai Wei just let him be.

"Tongtong, your dad and mom are back." Hearing the car, Bai Wei paused the video and informed Tongtong.

"Mhm."

Tongtong put down the Rubik’s Cube and ran to the entrance to greet Lu Han and Tang Su.

"Dad, Mom, you’re back? How is Godmother?" Tongtong knew about Lin Jiaojiao being hospitalized and thought she was ill.

"She’s not better yet, but when she is, we’ll take Tongtong to see her, okay?"

"Mhm."

"Have you taken a bath?" Lu Han asked.

"I have, smell, it’s very fragrant."

"Mhm, indeed very fragrant; then Dad will play Rubik’s Cube with you, show me how you play first."

"If Dad is tired, Tongtong can study it by himself."

"Dad’s not tired, playing with you for a while is no problem."

"Mhm, thank you, Dad. Mom, you go take a bath first."

"Alright, you play with Dad for a bit."

"Mhm mhm."
