Part Three, Chapter 72: Mutual Understanding 11
her workday when she suddenly saw Mr. Wang, the big boss of Hongzheng Law Firm, looking grave as he approached Director Xiao. 。This big boss rarely appears at the law firm. Shu Tinglan has only seen...She wasn't sleepy. She got up and put her gloves in the drawer, then flipped through some old photos in a folder. There were only a few pictures of her at the training ground by the window, either in the morning or evening, with blurry light and shadows. She had always kept them, never deleting them. Now, she tried hard to tell who was who, but apart from Song Jingye, everyone else was just a blur.
I am very sorry and sad.
She sighed, lay down beside Song Jingye, snuggling close to him, listening to his steady breathing. Only then did her mood truly calm down. She lay there for a while before falling asleep.
He had gotten used to sleeping alone in his bed, and only when he woke up in the morning did he realize that he was back, lying beside her.
"Awake" Song Jingye woke up earlier than her, watching her.
She burrowed into his arms, hugging him tightly.
Everything spoke volumes, this affection was gentle and tender, indulging in love and mutual comfort.
In the midst of it, Chen Ning recalled pulling off his black t-shirt for him, her hands only clutching at the edge of his shirt before being stopped by him. Throughout the whole thing, her hands were held firmly above her head by him, unable to move an inch. As the tide of desire washed over her, she didn't think much about it.
Not until the very end did he ask, "Would you like to change your clothes"
He seems to have sweated a lot.
Song Jingye nodded. His wound hadn't healed properly because he hadn't had enough rest, and being at a high altitude wasn't helping either. It kept opening and closing. Just now, when he used a little force, he felt it tear open again. A twinge of pain shot up his back.
He nodded, got up and took a piece of clothing to the bathroom to change.
Just as he had taken off his clothes, Chen Ning suddenly opened the bathroom door. He didn't have time to turn around, and the wound on his back was exposed in her eyes.
Chen Ning was incredibly perceptive. When they finished just now, he might have been a little lost in the moment and forgot to hide it, so she noticed something was off. At this moment, she stood at the door watching his back, her expression unusually cold.
Song Jingye explained: "It's just a minor injury, so I didn't mention it specifically."
"Chen Ling replied: 'You think anyway I can't help, so it doesn't matter what you tell me.'"
Right on the mark, Song Jingye was indeed thinking that way. So he didn't deny it, just said: "Don't worry, it's not a life-threatening injury."
Chen Ning nodded and said, "Get dressed quickly."
He shut the bathroom door immediately after finishing.
It's a bit uncomfortable standing out here. Actually, she saw the medical rescue team returning that same day when she went to pick him up. Dr. Su walked past them with her medical kit held high.
At this moment, she felt utterly defeated. Even though he had only sustained minor injuries, she couldn't do anything to help or make a difference.
Song Jingye came out after a while, changing into a casual outfit he usually wore. He had two days off to rest.
As he came out, naturally pulling Chen Ning's hand back, his voice sounded a bit weak: "Accompany me to the hospital."
Chen Ling immediately dispelled the previous negativity and asked nervously, "What's wrong"
Song Jingye: "My wound just cracked a bit, I need to go to the hospital to get it bandaged."
He never followed doctor's orders and didn't recover properly during the western military exercise. He was feeling a bit better these past two days, but after an intense workout just now, it cracked again.
It wasn't necessary to go to the hospital, just change the medicine and be careful. But since she cared about his attitude, he pretended to be a little weaker.
When Chen Ning heard that his wound wasn't healed, she didn't have any other thoughts and accompanied him to the hospital.
"Would you like me to make an appointment for the orthopedics department" She asked him to wait there and went personally to register him.
"Yes, make an appointment with Dr. Su."
Chen Ning felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. Was she this familiar
"Dr. Su seems to be an orthopedist, right"
"She can handle this minor skin wound."
After checking in, the two of them followed the sign upstairs and found Dr. Su's office.
Dr. Su returned to work today after three days of rest. Seeing Song Jingye appear at the door on his first day back, he was surprised: "Team Song"
"Change the dressing." Song Jingye said directly.
Dr. Su was a little puzzled. When he was in the north, even when wounds bled and inflamed, he never took the initiative to change the dressing. Now that he's back, it should be almost healed, but he's taking the initiative to change the dressing, which is strange.
Until she saw Chen Ning standing behind him, she understood. He had come to reassure his girlfriend, perhaps to clearly reject her and even pledge his loyalty to his girlfriend.
A touch of tenderness hidden beneath his iron will, Dr. Su felt a mix of envy and wistfulness. But being the gentleman he was, he kept it all to himself.
"Song team, would you mind if I had an intern come change your dressing"
"It's fine."
Then Dr. Su called over the intern she had brought with her.
Song Jingye's wound had only opened a little; it wasn't even a technical challenge for an intern.
So, I cleaned and changed his dressing as usual.
Chen Ning only greeted Dr. Su at the beginning and then stopped talking, because she also realized that Song Jingye's purpose for this trip seemed to have guessed her frustration earlier in the morning, so he deliberately pretended to be weak, asking her to accompany him to change his dressing, and by the way, rejecting Dr. Su
Gosh, such a straight guy!
Does he know that this would make both her and Dr. Su very awkward
Of course Song Jingye didn't know, his girlfriend was unhappy, of course he had to coax her. Besides, he wanted to refuse others, and he didn't care about the other party's feelings.
After the intern finished bandaging him, he routinely instructed, “Eat less spicy food, get plenty of rest, and avoid strenuous exercise.”
It was a very normal instruction, but when she heard the last sentence, Chen Ning's face flushed slightly. She remembered, before his wounds healed, she had to take care of him.
Leaving the hospital, Song Jingye drove her to her office. On the way, he asked, "Are you not angry anymore"
"I wasn't angry in the first place."
"Aren't you angry I saw you at the bathroom door just now, with a face that looked like you were about to cry."
"It's not anger, it's a little sad. I feel useless and can't be by your side like Dr. Su to share the burden with you."
Song Jingye said, "It's just different kinds of work. And besides, you're with me in my heart. You're thinking about waiting for me to come back, and I can't let anything happen to myself." He was driving, casually saying this sentence without realizing how much it would hurt Chen Ning.
Because of you, I dare not let myself get into trouble.
This is the best love words she has ever heard.
Her heart was pounding. When she got to her unit, she unbuckled her seatbelt and suddenly leaned over to hug him tightly. She held on for a while.
He gently patted her on the back and said with a teasing smile, "Alright, go down. Otherwise your wound will burst open again."
Chen Ning came back to her senses and hurriedly let go of him, getting out of the car.
Song Jingye kept the car window open as he watched her. She turned back every three steps to wave goodbye to him until she entered the office building.
While waiting for the elevator, I ran into Tao Kaiyan, "Was that just Team Song"number and pretended to dial it.Gu Ruandong smiled and reached for her phone: "It's not a good habit to leave your phone on the bed, change it later.""Mind your own business"I don't care who cares.The...
