Chapter 98 Regret

Seeing Si Nian like this made Jiang Sui's heart ache uncontrollably.

She sat down next to him, put her arms around Si Nian's neck, rested her chin on his shoulder, and comforted him in a soft voice.

"Don't think too much. Old Jiang didn't strongly object. He asked when we were going to get married. He said that it wasn't good for us to live together in the same room all day long without getting married. I didn't expect that Dad was still such a conservative person!"

After saying that, she stood up, looked at Si Nian with a smile on her lips and sparkling eyes.

Si Nian was amused by Jiang Sui's last words. He gently scratched her nose with his index finger and said, "You must be talking nonsense, little girl. Uncle Jiang is not such a conservative person!"

Then he pulled Jiang Sui back into his arms and whispered softly in her ear, "Sui Sui, wait for me. Once we get through this, we'll get married right away."

Jiang Sui stayed with Si Nian in the hospital for another night. The next day, Si Nian had several examinations to do, but Jiang Sui was still in the internship stage and could not always take leave to accompany him.

So Si Nian called Reo to the hospital to accompany him early in the morning, and told Jiang Sui to work hard and not to worry about him.

Jiang Sui is busy at work in the morning, and when he is free, he will call Reo to ask about Si Nian's situation.

Si Nian also sent her a message to question her because she called Reo several times but didn't call him.

[Year: How can you just call Reo? You don’t know who your husband is? ]

Jiang Sui couldn't help laughing when he saw Si Nian's message.

She just made a few phone calls to his assistant, and they were all about asking about his situation.

Why does it seem like he became overbearing and stingy after he fell ill?

And, husband...um...Jiang Sui stared at these two words and her cheeks began to feel hot unconsciously.

Si Nian actually started calling himself husband in messages. How could he change his way of address so quickly?

Jiang Sui thought that she couldn't do that, as she was still used to calling him brother. If she were asked to call Si Nian "husband" instead, she would be so embarrassed that she would want to find a hole to crawl into.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Sui sent a message to Si Nian.

【Shanxi: Someone has a dark history but doesn't know about it? He is a liar. It is better to ask Reo for some questions.】

It seemed that Si Nian was very bored while in the hospital, so he replied to the message very quickly.

He first replied to Jiang Sui with an emoticon pack saying "You're awesome", followed by another text.

【Year: I will rush Reo back to HK tomorrow! 】

Jiang Sui burst out laughing when she saw this. She didn’t believe that Si Nian would really do this!

However, this sentence made Jiang Sui feel that Si Nian really looked like a domineering president. In her opinion before, he really didn't look like that at all.

Then, Jiang Sui had another extremely busy afternoon and had no time to call Reo again, so Si Nian naturally didn't send her any more messages.

It was a rare occasion that Jiang Sui did not work overtime after get off work in the evening. She took a taxi straight to the hospital.

But when he entered the ward and saw two extra people, Jiang Sui was instantly overjoyed.

It’s Wu Fan and Mark.

Jiang Sui had returned to China for more than half a year and had been busy with work, so he had not seen Wu Fan. When the two met at this moment, they hugged each other silently like old friends.

Then Wu Fan stepped aside to make way for him, his eyes always on Jiang Sui.

Jiang Sui warmly kissed the bearded Mark on the cheek and said, "Welcome Mark to my country, and thank you for coming all the way to help me."

Unexpectedly, Mark said to Jiang Sui in a distorted Chinese accent, "Jiang, don't be polite to me!"

This caused everyone present to burst into laughter.

Only Si Nian had no expression on his face, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or unhappy.

Jiang Sui chatted with Mr. Wu and Mark for a while about Si Nian's condition.

It turned out that Mr. Wu got off the plane in the afternoon and did not contact Jiang Sui. He brought Mark directly to the hospital to meet Si Nian and Si Nian's attending team in the hospital. The details of the operation were basically finalized in one afternoon, and the operation time was set for the morning of the third day.

There was still one day left and the time was set, and Jiang Sui felt much more at ease.

Wu Fan and Mark didn't stay for long and were ready to leave. Jiang Sui took them to the hospital parking lot.

Wu Fan asked the driver to take Mark back to the hotel to rest first, and Jiang Sui accompanied him to the hospital entrance to prepare to take a taxi back.

While waiting for the bus, Wu Fan suddenly asked Jiang Sui, "The person hidden in your heart that you can't forget for several years is him, right?"

Jiang Sui looked at Wu Fan with some surprise.

"I don't think I've ever told Mr. Wu that there's someone in my heart that I can't forget."

Wu Fan smiled and asked Jiang Sui another question, which seemed to have nothing to do with the previous topic.

"Do you know why Professor Wu from Shen University always asked me to help you?"

Jiang Sui shook his head and asked tentatively, "Maybe it's because you have extraordinary abilities?"

Wu Fan laughed and said, "No, because she deliberately created the opportunity to let you and I have more contact."

Jiang Sui’s eyes widened in disbelief.

"Ms. Wu? This is impossible!"

Wu Fan chuckled, "Why not? You don't think she's that kind of person? She's not, but I'm her biological brother. She said she fell in love with a really good girl at school, with a good personality, strong abilities, and she's pretty. She doesn't want her good fortune to be wasted, so she wants her biological brother to bring that girl home."

This time Jiang Sui was so frightened that he almost lost his temper. He even forgot to be discreet and just stared at Wu Fan.

"Why, do you think I don't look like your Professor Wu?" Wu Fan noticed Jiang Sui's gaze and couldn't help but ask her.

If Wu Fan hadn't said it today, Jiang Sui really wouldn't have noticed it. But now he feels that they do look a little alike.

She smiled at him and said, "But you still didn't listen to Ms. Wu..."

Jiang Sui gestured with his fingers and said, "It's just to seduce me."

Wu Fan shook his head and said, "I wanted to come. Why not? I started thinking about you after I saw you for the first time. But when I saw you again in Canada, I found that there was always a hint of sadness on your face, and I knew that you had someone in your heart. I could only wait by your side as a friend without making a sound, hoping that when the sadness on your face would disappear, I could come and flirt with you."

Then he suddenly laughed at himself, "I didn't expect that after waiting for several years, it was useless. That day you were so anxious to ask me to find Mark, I guessed it was this person. Sure enough, when I saw this guy today, I knew it was over. I have no chance."

Wu Fan's words seemed to be very light, but when Jiang Sui heard them, she felt they were extremely heavy.

Wu Fan has helped her so much over the years, and she doesn't know how to thank him.

Now hearing his true feelings again, Jiang Sui felt that he owed him too much.

But she couldn't pay him back, so she could only lower her head and said very softly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wu."

Mr. Wu smiled easily, "Don't say that, Jiang Sui. Even if we can't hook up, we are still friends. Besides, you are Professor Wu's most proud student. If you need any help in the future, just come to me. I am still willing to help you. Or now you can also say it's you."

Jiang Sui didn't know what to say next. Just then a taxi pulled up. Wu Fan opened the door and said to Jiang Sui, "Let's go. I wish that guy a successful operation!"

"Thanks!"

Jiang Sui stood on the side of the road and watched the taxi go away. Then he turned around and was about to go back, but when he looked up, he saw Si Nian standing at the hospital gate.

He was still wearing his hospital gown and was staring straight at Jiang Sui.

Jiang Sui walked towards him and said to him unhappily, "How can you just run out like that? It would be troublesome if someone bumped into you!"

Si Nian took Jiang Sui's hand and led her back, with a coquettish tone in her voice.

"If I don't come out, my wife might be seduced by that guy!"

At this moment, Jiang Sui felt that the old saying was really true: when love rivals meet, they become extremely jealous of each other.

They both unexpectedly called each other "that guy". Do they both have names?

Jiang Sui couldn't help but find it funny, but she still pretended to be slightly angry and said to Si Nian, "You ran away just because of this? Which is more important, your life or your wife?"

"My wife is important!" Si Nian's words came out instantly without any hesitation.

Jiang Sui was indeed stunned when she heard this, then she laughed and muttered, "How can I get married if I'm dead?"

After listening to this, Si Nian looked at Jiang Sui in shock for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

He stopped, grabbed Jiang Sui and held her in his arms.

He lowered his body slightly, rubbed his face against Jiang Sui's ear, and said in a low voice, "Sui Sui, I regret it. I just realized today that I can't stand you getting too close to other men, and I can't stand you paying attention to others and ignoring me. That guy went to see the doctor with Mark in the afternoon, and I was alone and had nothing to do, so I thought, if I can't survive this time, will you and him be together? Just imagining this possibility makes me feel heartbroken. I can't accept it, Sui Sui, I won't feel at ease leaving you to anyone!"

Jiang Sui held Si Nian in his arms, patted his back gently, and comforted him with a gentle voice.

"No, there is no such possibility."

It won’t make you heartbroken, it won’t make you sad, and it won’t make you worried, because there will never be anyone else except you.

Si Nian hugged Jiang Sui's arms tighter, "Sui Sui, believe me, I will make it through this time, I will."

Si Nian seemed to be cheering himself up and kept whispering in Jiang Sui's ear.

Jiang Sui's eyes were warm , "Well, I believe you. I have always believed in you and know that you will not abandon me easily."

At the busy hospital entrance, a young couple hugged each other and kept encouraging each other, as if this would give them endless strength to fight the disease.

——

The next morning, the sky was bright.

Jiang Sui got up in a daze and went to the bathroom, turned on the light and washed up.

After a while, Si Nian's muffled and hoarse voice came from outside the door.

He was calling her, "Sui Sui."

Oh, maybe she accidentally bumped into him when she just got up and woke him up.

The two of them slept together on Si Nian's hospital bed last night.

Jiang Sui brushed his teeth and responded vaguely, "Yeah, brother, I'm in the bathroom."

She looked in the mirror and saw that her mouth was covered with foam. She couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth. She didn't know whether Si Nian understood what she had just said.

"Sui Sui, why don't you turn on the light in the bathroom?"

The bathroom door was wide open. Si Nian was fully awake and the voices could be heard clearly.

Jiang Sui quickly replied, "I opened it!"

Si Nian was silent for a moment, then asked Jiang Sui, "What time is it now?"

Jiang Sui quickly rinsed his mouth, took the towel and walked out, saying as he walked, "It should be around six o'clock, and the sky is already bright."

"Oh, is it daybreak?" Si asked in a low voice with a hint of doubt.

"Yes." Jiang Sui raised his eyes and glanced at the window.

Last night, we lay in bed together, watching the moon, so the curtains were not closed.

At this moment, the morning sun is rising slowly outside the window, and the room is already unusually bright.

Jiang Sui's brows suddenly frowned and he turned to look at Si Nian.
