Chapter 87. Let’s just make do with each other

Wen Li drank too much water, and soon her belly swelled up. Seeing Huo Yuanchen busy replying to messages, she tried not to bother him.

But this kind of thing is unbearable. She blushed and looked at him several times.

Finally, he had no choice but to shout, "Huo Yuanchen."

He then turned off his phone and tilted his head to look at her, "What's the matter?"

Wen Li blushed and nodded, "I want to go to the bathroom."

He refused with a serious expression, "No. You can't sit on the toilet in your current condition."

Wen Li's face fell, "What should I do then?"

Huo Yuanchen wanted to teach her a lesson to see if she would dare to disobey again, so he deliberately said, "How about this, I'll go buy you a pack of adult diapers."

Wen Li almost cried, "I... I'm not used to it, I..."

She couldn't say anything, she was anxious and couldn't bear it anymore, like a child, she wanted to cry. Finally, she called him aggrievedly, "Huo Yuanchen..."

He raised his eyelids to look at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Wen Li had a way to go to the toilet. She asked Huo Yuanchen to help her go to the toilet, and then closed the door. She stood inside to release it. Huo Yuanchen arranged a single room for her, which was quite convenient. She didn't have to share the toilet with others. She stood, which would not affect her wound and could solve the urgent problem.

But she couldn't bring herself to say this method.

Seeing that Huo Yuanchen still had no intention of helping, Wen Li could only bite the bullet and say, "Help me go to the bathroom."

"I told you you can't sit on the toilet."

Wen Li's face was burning, "I... am standing..."

Huo Yuanchen glanced at her, reached his hand into the quilt and pulled her panties, his expression couldn't be more calm.

Wen Li was anxious to hide, but he held her down and said, "Why are you hiding? Aren't you going to take it off later?"

Wen Li's ears turned red, and she said in a voice as quiet as a mosquito, "You are too casual."

He sneered and said to her, "Why are you shy? It's not like I haven't taken it off for you before."

Wen Li's neck was red now. He had indeed taken off his clothes many times when they were doing that.

When she came out of the bathroom, Huo Yuanchen was talking on the phone. He had a smile on his face and a very gentle expression, not at all the cold look he had when he was with her. When he saw her, he first pointed at the phone in his hand, and then quickly said, "Wait a minute."

He took the phone and walked outside the ward to answer it.

Wen Li could probably guess who he was talking to on the phone. She felt a little aggrieved, but there was nothing she could do. She didn't know anyone here, and she couldn't speak the language. Apart from Huo Yuanchen, she couldn't count on anyone else.

Her wound hurt, so she could hold on to the wall and walk step by step, but there was still a short distance from the bathroom door to the bed. She had no place to gain leverage, and she was afraid of splitting the wound, so she could only wait patiently for Huo Yuanchen to come back.

She was bored of waiting so she counted in her mind. When she counted to one hundred, he came back and extended his hand to her.

Wen Li asked him, "Who called just now?"

Huo Yuanchen looked at her calmly, "Are you being too nosy?"

Wen Li asked him in a low voice, "You've been abroad for so many days, and that person didn't contact you?"

"Who is that?"

Wen Li said, "You know."

Huo Yuanchen sneered twice and said, "I don't know. There is no one named that in my address book."

In fact, Wen Li regretted what she said just now. Who Huo Yuanchen wanted to contact, what did it have to do with her? Why bother asking? But she just wanted to know, he was taking care of her in the hospital every day, but he kept replying to the messages on his phone, was the person he was replying to An Wen?

Seeing the atmosphere between them getting cold again, Wen Li pursed her lips, not wanting to argue with him anymore. She was a patient, and she definitely couldn't win an argument with him, a healthy person, so why bother herself with that?

Who would have thought that the next second he would say, "Wen Li, could you please stop being so hypocritical?"

Wen Li couldn't hold back her tears. She felt ashamed that she didn't win the argument and cried. If Zhou Ying knew about this, she would definitely laugh at her.

"Why are you crying?" Huo Yuanchen asked her.

Wen Li turned his face away and said, "My wound hurts, and you still don't allow me to cry?"

Huo Yuanchen looked at her coldly for a long while, took out his cell phone, handed it to her, and said, "My mother called just now. She asked me to take good care of you. Do you want to know about this kind of thing?"

Wen Li sniffed and said, "Then why are you hiding? Did you say anything bad about me to Auntie? Are you afraid that I would hear it?"

"I'm not that bored." Huo Yuanchen thought she was too delicate and cried all the time, so he teased her on purpose, "My mom wants to introduce me to a blind date, and I'm afraid you'll feel bad if you know about it."

Wen Li was silent for a while, then said, "You will marry someone else sooner or later, so why should I feel bad about it?"

She didn't dare to dream that Huo Yuanchen would marry her. For a family like his, the person he would marry in the future would either be of equal status or they would be in love with each other. She had neither of those, so what was there to think about?

Huo Yuanchen smiled and said, "Who should I marry? Who can be as wild as you and satisfy me? Let's just make do with what we have now."

Wen Li's eyes flickered, but he didn't dare to think too much.

Seeing that she stopped making trouble, Huo Yuanchen took out his phone again. On his phone screen, An Wen's chat box jumped to the first place. When he opened it, he saw a super cute rabbit emoticon package, smiling very happily.

An Wen proudly informed him, "Brother Yuanchen, the results of the course I took a make-up exam for are out. I scored 81 points, which is 15 points higher than your guess. According to the agreement, you will not be allowed to eat for two days, and you will have to eat the food I specify for the next week. Do you accept the punishment?"

Huo Yuanchen smiled and replied to her quickly with his fingers, "I'm willing to accept the loss."

Wen Li woke up after sleeping for a while. It was just noon. Through the window, he could see a food cart had just been pushed out in the yard outside. Many people were carrying food trays to get food. Wen Li took a look and then looked away.

Huo Yuanchen followed her gaze, walked over, and half-pulled the curtains up, so that the dining car was no longer visible.

"What are you looking at? The food in the hospital is disgusting," he said.

Wen Li sighed depressedly and said, "Go eat now."

Huo Yuanchen didn't move.

Wen Li urged him twice more, reminding him, "I think there are a lot of people here. If you go too late, there won't be any left."

Huo Yuanchen then said, "I won't eat. I'll stay with you."

Wen Li was a little surprised, "Aren't you hungry?"

He smiled and said nothing.

In the evening, the dining cart came out again. Wen Li urged Huo Yuanchen to go eat again, but he still refused to go.

"But you didn't eat lunch?" Wen Li asked him, "As a man, you should have been hungry a long time ago."

Huo Yuanchen still shook his head, "No."

Not only did he not go, he also closed the door of the ward. Wen Li just smelled a little bit of the fragrance of other people's food, but suddenly he couldn't smell it anymore, and glared at him with a little dissatisfaction, "I can't eat it, but it's good to smell it."

Huo Yuanchen turned on the TV for her and said, "I'm even hungrier after smelling it."

Wen Li thought about it and asked him uncertainly, "Is it because I can't eat and you're afraid that I'll get greedy when I see you eating, so you're starving with me?"

He came over and handed the remote control to her, rubbed her head and said, "Nothing."

Although Wen Li didn't say anything else, she was still a little touched. She felt that although Huo Yuanchen was a jerk at ordinary times, he was quite considerate when he really encountered trouble.

She had some thoughts in mind and counted on her fingers how many meals Huo Yuanchen would go hungry.

As a result, when the doctor came to inform her that she could eat some liquid food, he quickly brought back two bowls of white porridge from outside.

Wen Li looked at the porridge in front of her, looking embarrassed, "It makes me lose my appetite. Can you change to something else?"

Huo Yuanchen raised his eyelids and looked at her, "You wish."

Wen Li had been taking medicine to prevent wound infection these days. Her mouth tasted bitter, and the porridge had no taste. She drank less than half a bowl and didn't want to drink it anymore. "It doesn't taste good. It would be better if there was a bag of pickled mustard tuber."

Huo Yuanchen took her spoon and scooped a spoonful of porridge, handed it to her mouth and coaxed her, "Drink two more sips, and order eight-treasure porridge tomorrow."

Wen Li didn't believe it, "Is there any place selling eight-treasure porridge here?"

Huo Yuanchen nodded, "Yes."

Wen Li saw that his bowl also contained porridge, so she felt embarrassed to complain. He was a healthy man and was drinking porridge with her, so what else could she complain about?
