Chapter 998: I’ve Only Slept With You
Bai Qi listened to doctor Zhou’s orderly arrangements over the phone. It could be seen that taking care of his wife and children was doctor Zhou’s daily routine.
Bai Qi had once heard that doctor Zhou’s wife, Jian Han, was his university classmate. The two of them had been in love for a whole ten years. After going through many, many hardships, they finally were able to get married. Doctor Zhou and his wife were very in love. He doted on his wife without restraint, any woman would be envious and jealous.
Bai Qi raised her head to look at doctor Zhou in front of her. She had interacted with many men, but most of them were like Zhou Yao or her big brother, Leng Hao. It was rare for her to see someone as gentle as doctor Zhou.
The corners of her mouth curled up as she said softly, “Doctor Zhou, your wife must be very happy.”
Zhou Dayuan put away his phone. He looked at Zhou Yao, who stood outside the door and smiled. “Why, Mrs. Zhou, aren’t you happy?”
Happy?
Bai Qi smiled blankly and shook her head. “I don’t know.”
“Mrs. Zhou, every man loves differently. Whether you’re happy or not, you’ll know when you ask your heart.”
“Mmm,” Bai Qi nodded. “Doctor Zhou, I forgot to thank you. Sileng was indebted to you at birth.”
“There’s no need to thank me. If you want to thank, thank General Zhou. Sileng was born prematurely at eight and a half months. When I picked him up on the island, I felt his weak pause. As a doctor, with Sileng’s condition at that time, it was really difficult for him to survive. Therefore, when I returned to T City, I suggested that General Zhou let me take him home for a period of time and let me take care of him personally. However, General Zhou didn’t agree.”
“Sileng was really brought up by General Zhou. Before Sileng was one year old, Zhou Yao was the one who held him in his arms. Ah, Mrs. Zhou, you haven’t seen it with your own eyes. You might not be able to imagine the scene of General Zhou taking care of the child. His was very clumsy. When he held Sileng for the first time, he was as stiff as a rock. He brewed milk powder for Sileng, changed her diapers, and bathed him. I personally watched General Zhou struggle as a father.”
“Actually, the most difficult time is when Sileng got sick. The hospital has issued a few critical illness notices. Sileng was too young. Every time he receives an IV drip, he needs to shave off his newly grown hair and search for blood vessels on his head. Sileng would cry incessantly when he felt pain. At that time, General Zhou tightly held one of Sileng’s small hands. Most of the time, he doesn’t have any expression or spoke, but everyone could see his reddened eyes.”
“For half a year, General Zhou and Sileng spent their time in the hospital ward. Although there was sunlight in the ward, they had already spent an entire winter there. In the world where they were dependent on each other, their world was colorless.”
Zhou Dayuan frowned as he mentioned the past.
Bai Qi felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly by a large palm. She was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe. How much had her little Silleng suffered?
And that man, she had always known how clumsy he was. He would throw a tantrum and kick things if things didn’t go his way. When she was with him, she did not hear him say many sweet words. He would always yell. He did not have the patience and had a bad temper, she really couldn’t imagine how he played the role of a... mother.
How did they survive all those years without her?
...
After the examination, Bai Qi walked out. She stood by the window in the corridor and breathed in the fresh air outside.
At this time, two strong arms wrapped around her slender waist from behind. She was leaning against a broad and warm chest. A gentle kiss landed on her head. The man’s soft voice sounded, “Isn’t it cold standing here in the wind?”
Bai Qi didn’t move and let him hold her. She shook her head, “No... What did doctor Zhou say? What happened to my face?”
“Doctor Zhou said that there are no traces of surgery on your face, so it’s not plastic surgery.”
“So it’s a facial manipulation? Where’s Han Xuan?” She put her hands into the pockets of her coat and asked directly.
“I’ve sent people to look for her. Unless she had disappeared from this world, I’ll find her soon.” Zhou Yao kissed her face.
Bai Qi slowly turned her head to look at him. “What do you mean? Didn’t you bring her back four years ago?”
Zhou Yao looked at the woman’s beautiful gray eyes and shook his head, “No. Four years ago, before you gave birth, she flew from T City to look for me on the island. I explained everything to her clearly. Later, some things happened during the scuffle between Ye Ziyi and me. She fell to the ground and was a little mentally unstable. I asked my men to keep an eye on her, but then something happened after you gave birth. Sileng was born, and I. . . fainted. Everything was very chaotic at that time, and there was a big explosion. When everyone had returned to T City, they found that Han Xuan was already gone.”
Bai Qi caught a keyword in this sentence. She looked at his cold and stern face with interest and said with disdain, “General Zhou, wasn’t it embarrassing for you to faint on the battlefield? You’re such a noob. If you don’t faint, I might not have to wander around for four years, and Han Xuan wouldn’t have escaped.”
Zhou Yao’s expression was also very unnatural. He took a deep look at Bai Qi and then explained, “I thought you were... dead. Fainting wasn’t be something I could control.” freew ebnov el
Bai Qi snorted and ignored him.
Zhou Yao hugged her even tighter. He used his nose to rub against her hair, “Ye Ziyi died four years ago. At that time, I confronted him and shot him. His death report also confirmed that he was indeed dead. However, there are still a few mysteries. First, when you were giving birth, there was abnormal bleeding. It was obvious that your breathing had already disappeared. Then who saved you? Second, the island was quickly submerged under the sea. How did you drift to the wilderness on land? It couldn’t be a coincidence. It must have been man-made. Was this also part of Ye Ziyi’s plan? Third, Han Xuan, now we can be sure that Han Xuan did something to your face. How did she do it? Did she collude with Ye Ziyi?”
“But you don’t have to worry about that. Now, you just need to care for our son and stay by my side. Leave everything else to me, and I will take care of it.”
“Oh,” Bai Qi replied, “Han Xuan is your problem. Even if you find her, she may not change my face back. You can do whatever you want then, whether it’s coercion or luring or... seduction...”
Before she could finish her sentence, the two muscular arms around her slender waist suddenly tightened. The man’s displeased voice sounded, “Honey, how can you say that?”
Bai Qi turned her head and smiled at him. “General Zhou, you’ve slept with so many women anyway. To save me this time, it’s no big deal to sleep with Han Xuan.”
She felt pain in her waist. It was Zhou Yao, he pinched her. The man’s handsome face darkened, and he stared at her like an eagle. “I’ll explain again. I’ve only slept with you. If you dare to say such words to provoke me again, I’ll make a mess out of you!”
