"Mm."

Gu Mochen responded faintly, his powerful aura, although lying on the hospital bed, still made one shudder.

Jian Ran then added,

"Thank you for your trouble."

"You’re welcome, sir. You really are fortunate. Your wife here, just when you were brought into the emergency room, she was beside herself with worry."

Jian Ran: "..."

Jian Ran did not expect the doctor to suddenly say such a thing and instantly, her face turned a deep shade of red.

Some things... it’s enough to just do them.

No need to let Gu Mochen know.

Sure enough, upon hearing what the doctor said, Mo Chen’s long, narrow eyes narrowed slightly and settled on Jian Ran, flashing a trace of deep meaning.

Jian Ran took a deep breath and softly said, "That... I was just scared out of my wits... It’s getting late, time to rest... Thank you all for your hard work. If anything comes up, I’ll be watching. Let me show you out."

Having said that, Jian Ran squeezed out a smile at the corners of her mouth and, seeing the doctors hesitating to speak, hurriedly escorted them out.

Gu Mochen: "..."

Gu Mochen watched with interest as Jian Ran hurried to extricate herself, his eyes once again glinting with a hidden light and amusement.

...

After seeing the doctors out, Jian Ran returned to find Gu Mochen’s gaze burning into her. She whispered, "Have some water first... then drink some soup and get some rest."

The nurse had just brought in chicken soup that had been simmered, all for the nourishment of Gu Mochen’s wound.

Gu Mochen’s face changed subtly... his handsome face looked somewhat embarrassed upon hearing Jian Ran mention drinking water.

"Mm!"

Since Gu Mochen was lying down, Jian Ran could not feed him water directly and had to bring a straw to his lips to give him a drink.

However, after a simple sip, Mo Chen no longer wanted to drink.

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise.

"Gu Mochen, shouldn’t you drink a bit more? Otherwise... it’s been... a whole night without water."

Hearing her words, Mo Chen’s handsome face grew even darker.

"No need."

Jian Ran: "..."

He really is... a domineering CEO.

Even though it was late at night, Jian Ran fought off sleepiness and mustered up the energy to pour Gu Mochen a bowl of chicken soup and held it in her hand.

"Drink just a little, so it doesn’t affect digestion... After all, it’s late, so focus on the soup. If you eat the meat, it might aggravate the wound on your chest."

Gu Mochen: "..."

Drink soup?

Gu Mochen’s face... grew even more unsightly.

Right now... his situation was indeed very inconvenient.

"No need."

Jian Ran: "..."

Is Gu Mochen being petulant?

Seeing him like this, Jian Ran couldn’t help but speak irritably, "Gu Mochen, could you please cooperate a little? You’re the patient here. If you want me to stay and care for you, you have to act like one."

"So, were you worrying about me just now? Mrs. Gu?"

Jian Ran: "..."

Upon hearing Gu Mochen steer the conversation towards what the doctor had said earlier, Jian Ran involuntarily averted her gaze.

"Uh... I explained just now, I was frightened."

"Mm?"

Seeing Gu Mochen expecting a candid explanation, Jian Ran tried to change the subject.

"If you don’t want to drink the chicken soup, I’ll ask the nurse if there are any other soups that are good for healing wounds."
