Marriage First, True Love Later - Chapter 220
220 Xiao bin’s life experience
When Zhou han returned to the room, he was holding a cup of water in his hand. He handed the cup to Lin Li and said, ” “Gargle with cold water. It’ll be better.”
Lin Li covered her mouth. Her tongue was still burning. She took the cold water from his hand and took a big gulp. Only then did she feel better.
She wanted to drink more, but the glass in her hand was already taken by Zhou han. She heard Zhou han say, ” “You’ve caught a cold, so don’t drink so much cold water.” As he spoke, he put the cup on the bedside table, then took the bowl of ginger syrup and blew it lightly. Then, he used the spoon to scoop it up and taste it. After making sure that the temperature wouldn’t burn his mouth, he handed the bowl back to Lin Li and said, ” drink it. It’s not hot anymore. If you drink it late, you can have a good sleep.
!!
Lin Li reached out and took it. She nodded and said in a low voice, ” thank you. After that, she brought the bowl to her mouth. With the painful lesson from before, Lin Li was especially careful this time. She first took a small sip to make sure the temperature was right, then drank it in big gulps. However, she still miscalculated. She couldn’t get used to the spiciness and smell of the ginger sauce. She gritted her teeth and squinted her eyes as she said,”Why is it so spicy!”
Zhou han looked at her colorful expression and couldn’t help but smile.
Although it was spicy, Lin Li still finished the entire bowl of ginger tea in the end.
Zhou han took the empty bowl from her and helped her lie down as he said, ” lie down and close your eyes for a nap. You’ll feel better if you sweat more.
Lin Li laid down on the pillow, but she didn’t close her eyes as Zhou han said. She opened her eyes and looked at him bending over to cover her with the quilt. She suddenly realized that under his cold appearance, there was actually a very gentle and soft heart.
As if he had noticed her gaze, Zhou han stopped what he was doing and turned his eyes to meet Lin Li’s.
Time seemed to have stopped in an instant. Lin Li just looked at him like that. She was very straightforward and didn’t hide it at all. Zhou han also looked back at her with a firm and deep gaze.
“What are you looking at?”
Zhou Han’s deep and magnetic voice rang out above Lin Li. As he spoke, his warm breath directly sprayed on Lin Li’s face, so hot that it seemed to have a kind of mist.
Only then did Lin Li come back to her senses. Her eyes were fixed on him, and her gaze didn’t move away because of awkwardness. She remembered the phone call from mother Zhou earlier and slowly said, ” “You clearly have a very soft and gentle heart, why are you so cold and heartless to Xiao bin?”
Zhou Han’s eyes suddenly turned cold, and the way he stared at Lin Li was no longer as gentle as before. He stood up and no longer looked at her. With his back facing Lin Li, he said coldly, ” “You should rest.” Her voice was stiff and without a hint of gentleness. As she spoke, she walked towards the door.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Lin Li quickly sat up from the bed and looked at Zhou han, who was about to walk to the door. She quickly said, ” “Are you trying to escape? He’s just a child, and he’s your son. Don’t you think you’re too much to treat him like this?” Lin Li spoke very quickly, her tone a little urgent.
Zhou han stopped in his tracks. He didn’t look back or say anything.
Seeing him stop, Lin Li continued, ” “Mother Zhou called in the afternoon and said that Xiao bin called you when he was in a daze from his fever. He just wanted you to go and see him. Why are you so cold to him? he’s your son, isn’t he?”
Zhou han still didn’t turn around and said with some pain, ” “You don’t know anything,”
“Yes, I don’t know anything. I don’t know what happened between you and Ling LAN. I only know that you’ve gone too far by treating Xiao bin like this. What right do you have to shift all your hatred towards Ling LAN onto him!” Lin Li criticized. Her voice was nasal and slightly hoarse because of the cold.
“Hehe.” Zhou han suddenly laughed. His voice was low and had a hint of self-mockery.
“What are you laughing at?” Lin Li looked at him in confusion.
Zhou han stopped laughing, but he didn’t turn around. He said coldly, ” “Xiao bin is not my son.”
uh … Lin Li was stunned. What did she just hear wrong? Zhou han said that Xiao bin wasn’t his son?
When Lin Li regained her senses and looked up again, Zhou han had already opened the door and left.
Lin Li stared at the half-opened door and still couldn’t believe what Zhou han had just said. He said that Xiao bin wasn’t his son, so whose son could it be?
Thinking of this, Lin Li lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed to ask, but when the man walked to the door, she stopped and hesitated while holding the door handle.
If it was really as Zhou han said, that Xiao bin wasn’t his child, then Xiao bin could be Ling Lan’s child with someone else. So, did he divorce Ling LAN because of Ling Lan’s betrayal? So the reason why he had been treating the child so coldly was not simply because the conflict between him and Ling LAN had shifted to the child, but because looking at the child made him think of Lin Li’s betrayal and disloyalty to him?
In the end, Lin Li didn’t open the door and go out, because she didn’t know what she could say or ask even if she went out. If Xiao bin was really the child of Ling Lan’s affair, then what else could she ask Zhou han to do? What qualifications did he have?
Lying back on the bed, she turned her head to look at the bowl and cup on the bedside table that she had forgotten to take away. Lin Li thought of Zhou Han’s attentiveness when he was blowing the ginger syrup with the bowl in his hand just now, and also thought of his gentleness and consideration when he tucked her in just now.
She didn’t know how Zhou han knew that Xiao bin wasn’t his biological child, nor did she know that he decided to keep the child after the divorce with the same feelings as us. However, she thought that he was actually just a cold-looking person on the outside, but he had a very soft heart.
The A4 paper printed information was scattered all over the floor of the study room. Zhou han looked up and sat on the brown and black Leather Swivel Chair behind the office desk. The buttons of his shirt collar were undone, and his hair was slightly messy.
The scenes in the hospital flashed through his mind, and the doctor told him that Xiao bin was not related to him by blood.
He opened his eyes and clenched his fists tightly. Zhou han forced himself not to think about it, but his thoughts seemed to be out of his control. The more he didn’t think about it, the more they appeared.
When he received the call from the nanny, Zhou han was hosting a cooperation meeting that involved tens of millions of dollars. When he heard the Secretary say in his ear that the nanny at home called and said that Xiao bin insisted on looking for his mother after school, he ran away by himself while the nanny wasn’t paying attention. However, he was accidentally hit by an oncoming truck and bled a lot on the spot. Now, he was already sent to the hospital.
Upon hearing the news, Zhou han didn’t have time to think about it, let alone the crucial cooperation plan. He answered the phone and rushed to the hospital after giving a few hasty instructions.
When he arrived at the hospital, only the middle-aged black nanny was waiting outside the operating room. She looked panicked and paced back and forth in front of the operating room.
what’s the situation? ” Zhou han stepped forward and asked anxiously. Sophia, how’s the situation? ”
When Sophia saw him, she hurriedly explained, ” “Sir, I didn’t do it on purpose. Xiao Bin ran so fast that I didn’t even have time to react before he rushed out. I really didn’t do it on purpose. Please don’t fire me.” She was afraid that Zhou han would blame this on her and lose her job!
“I’m asking you how is Xiao bin’s condition!” Zhou han shouted angrily, ” if anything happens to Xiao bin, what do I still need you for?!
After being yelled at by Zhou han, the black nanny was so scared that she couldn’t speak. She looked scared and could only shake her head.
Zhou han looked at her and punched the hospital wall.
After calming down, Zhou han took out his phone and was about to call Ling LAN. Although he had divorced Ling LAN, Xiao bin was still their child. Ling LAN was still the child’s mother, so she should have the right to know about the child’s situation.
Only then did he take out his phone and pull up Ling Lan’s number. Just as he was about to call her, the door to the operating room that had been tightly shut suddenly opened. A golden-haired nurse wearing a mask came out and asked, ” who’s the family of the child inside? the child is suffering from massive bleeding. The blood bank in the hospital may not have enough blood. Family members should be prepared for a blood transfusion at any time.
Upon hearing this, Zhou han didn’t have time to think about it. He quickly went forward and said to the nurse, ” “I am, I am. I am the child’s father.”
The nurse glanced at him and nodded. She only said, ” “Come with me.” Then, she ran over with Zhou han.
When Zhou han finished a few tests and rolled up his sleeves to give the child a blood transfusion, the nurse came in with a frown. She looked at Zhou han and said, ” your blood type is different from the child’s. You’re type A while the child is Type B. We can’t use your blood. Is the child’s mother here? it’s best to let her do it.
“What did you just say?” Zhou han stood up from the chair and grabbed the nurse’s shoulder, ” are you mistaken? how could he be Type B? he’s my son, how could he have a different blood type? ”
The nurse explained, ” calm down. The child’s blood type is from his parents, but not necessarily from his father. He might also be from his mother, so his blood type might not be the same as yours because he might have inherited it from your wife. So, the most important thing now is to contact your wife. If there isn’t enough blood during the operation, your child’s life will be in danger!
impossible! My wife’s blood type is the same as mine, type A. You must have made a mistake. My son can’t be Type B! Zhou han was very emotional! He had the same blood type as Ling LAN, so how could Xiao bin be Type B?
The nurse was stunned when she heard what he said. She frowned and asked, ” “The child isn’t your biological child?”
