Being pampered and happy is truly an intoxicating experience.
Yes, in the more than thirty years that Qinglan has walked through, she never knew that the sweetness of being spoiled could be so enticing. In the indulgent love, giving is so willingly and naturally done.
In Xu Wen's embrace and his infatuated gaze, she promised Xu Wen to stay and keep him company.
From then on, she would stay with him forever.
Xu Wen carried her into the room, and just as they were lost in endless intimacy on the bed, her phone in the bag rang at an inopportune moment, ringing stubbornly.
When the first ring sounded, Qinglan, pinned beneath Xu Wen, was still lost in a daze of passion. It wasn't until the second ring that her mind began to clear a little.
She slightly raised her neck to look in the direction of the ringing.
"Ignore it; tonight you belong entirely to me," Xu Wen said possessively without any hesitation.
Perhaps because he was usually gentle, hearing him speak so domineeringly and unreasonably made Qinglan feel a bit awkward and strange. At the same time, she felt even more embarrassed and shy.
This embarrassment and shyness were stronger than when she was entwined with Xu Wen just moments ago, causing her body and hands to suddenly stop moving.
The phone rang again.
Qinglan seized the opportunity to break free from Xu Wen's hold and timidly said, "I should go answer the phone; it might be Beautiful calling with something urgent."
Though reluctant, Xu Wen still let go of her hand. As long as Qinglan's eyes were on him, his heart softened for those eyes that seemed untouched by the world.
"Go ahead," he said kindly, patting her hand. But as she stood up to leave, he hesitated to let go of her hand. Even though he was reluctant, he eventually released it.
Qinglan acted in accordance with him, not showing any signs of urgency outwardly, but inside she was anxious. She hurriedly grabbed the phone without even straightening her wrinkled clothes and answered worriedly.
It was indeed Qingmei calling. She asked, "Mom, where are you?"
After starting school, Qingmei no longer wanted to call Qinglan Mama; she said she wanted to call her Mom like people from Beijing do.
"Beautiful, what's wrong? Is something happening? Where's Lin Mama?" Qinglan finally took a moment to adjust her shirt and asked anxiously.
"Lin Mama is taking a shower. I'm in my room, I'm fine."
Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't that Qingmei was in trouble, so she felt at ease. She moved her legs and relaxed her entire body.
However, Qingmei's question still puzzled her.
In the middle of the night, when her daughter asked where she was, how could she respond when she was at someone else's house?
"I'm outside?" Qinglan turned to look at Xu Wen.
"When are you coming home?" Beautiful's clear voice asked.
"What's wrong?" Qinglan felt guilty.
"It's too late; you need to go home and sleep!" Beautiful glanced towards the door. She had secretly used Qinglan's phone to call her while Lin Xi was away.
That evening, Lin Xi repeatedly reminded her that Mama had important matters to attend to and told her not to disturb her with calls.
But out of curiosity and longing, she couldn't help but call.
So she also felt a bit guilty for not following Lin Xi's instructions.
Qinglan paused, "Oh, okay, I'll go home and sleep right away."
After hanging up the phone, Qinglan looked helplessly at Xu Wen.
Xu Wen smiled down at her and said, "This little girl is getting more clever." He pushed himself off the bed and said, "Come on, I'll walk you home."
Qinglan lowered her head and smiled lightly, feeling a mix of shyness, apology, and reluctance.
"I'm sorry," Qinglan apologized as she held onto the door frame while leaving.
Xu Wen ruffled her hair, placed his hands on her shoulders, leaned closer to her face, and smiled, "It's okay. There will be plenty of time in the future. You’re already wearing the ring I gave you on your finger; where could you run off to?"
As she spoke, she cupped her face and gently rubbed it.
The next day, Lin Xi took Qing Mei to the hospital for a check-up.
As they passed the lawn of the hospital, Lin Xi slowed her pace, holding Qing Mei's hand while her eyes searched the grass.
"Lin Mama, who are you looking for? Your boyfriend?" Qing Mei looked up with a mischievous smile.
"Go away." Lin Xi lightly tapped her head. "You're such a little trickster."
"I think it looks a bit like him," Qing Mei said, nodding seriously. "You always bring me to the hospital for check-ups. Are you trying to find your boyfriend here?"
"Why don't you focus on studying instead of thinking about these things?" Although she was still arguing, Lin Xi's tone was lacking confidence, and her face turned slightly red.
"Oh oh oh." Qing Mei clapped her hands and laughed happily. "I guessed it right, didn't I?"
After bringing Qing Mei to the Examination Room, there were several tests that needed to be done, which would take some time. Since Qing Mei was already familiar with the various departments and doctors, she pushed Lin Xi towards the door and said, "You can go out. I don't need you to accompany me; I can handle it myself. Go find your boyfriend."
Qing Mei's words made the doctor laugh as he prepared the instruments for her examination. He said, "This girl is so clever. How did you know she wants to find a boyfriend?"
Qing Mei pouted and replied, "I just know. If she doesn't have a boyfriend, she must be thinking about one."
The doctor laughed heartily and said to Lin Xi, "Kids these days are so sharp; they understand everything. Unlike us when we were young."
Lin Xi smiled on the outside, but her expression was awkward; she didn't know whether to stay or leave.
In the end, Qing Mei pushed her out.
After going downstairs, Lin Xi walked around the lawn but did not see the figure in the wheelchair again, feeling somewhat disappointed.
As she walked back, Lin Xi felt a bit melancholic. How could a person who couldn't even stand up in a wheelchair occupy her thoughts?
The scene from that day resurfaced in her mind; she slowed her pace as the figure in the wheelchair and the girl's silhouette alternated in her thoughts.
What is it that binds her, the silhouette or the figure?
She stopped in her tracks as a bright light suddenly flashed in her mind.
She quickly dashed toward the hospital lobby again.
She rushed to the information desk in the lobby.
A few nurses were chatting.
"Excuse me, is there a patient named Su Hailu? Which room is she in?" Lin Xi asked one of the nurses who was focused on taking notes.
The nurse looked up and politely replied, "Let me check for you."
"What illness does the patient have? Which department is she in?" She began to flip through the patient admission records.
"I don't know," Lin Xi answered.
The nurse raised her head, looking at her with confusion. "Then how can I check? There are too many patients in the hospital, and it's hard to find without knowing the department."
"Well, here's the situation..." Lin Xi explained her circumstances in detail. The nurse glanced at a few other nurses and said somewhat awkwardly, "It's difficult to check like this." "What's going on?" Two nearby nurses also leaned in.
