My Dangerous Billionaire Husband - Chapter 448
Chapter 448: Zhou Jian Story (7) What’s Wrong? You Are Unhappy To See Me
Zhou Dayuan was joyous. He noticed that she was drowsy and about to fall asleep. He shook her lightly while he said, “Wifey, sleep a while later. I will feed you some rice.”
The woman found his neck and buried herself in it. She kissed him softly as she said, “Hubby, I am already full. Can I not eat dinner tonight?”
Zhou Dayuan felt his heart was tender, soft, yet painful. The part that was kissed by her made him feel as if he’d been electrocuted, and the electricity was travelling to all parts of his body.
It was not that he did not have desires. Actually, he had the desire. This feeling was hard to describe. Men are different from women. The way men express their love more boldly and directly — he wanted her.
But he could not. He knew how exhausted she was right now.
“Wifey, be good. I will feed you some rice. A few bites would be good also. You are too skinny right now. You need to grow a little more plump.”
She did not look like a pregnant woman at all. Other than her little stomach, she did not get fat at all. Her appetite was so small; how was she going to share that tiny bit of soup with her son?
He felt very bad for her.
“Hubby, I don’t want anything. I really don’t want to eat anything…” Jian Han hugged his neck,and froze for a moment before she laughed and softly said, “Hubby, do you think, can I really…give birth to the baby…safely? I know as a doctor, my body…”
Giving birth was like a trip to hell and back. With the condition her body was in right now, could she come back safely?
“Shh, don’t say it!” Zhou Dayuan turned sideways and searched for her soft red lips as he kissed her gently. “Don’t say inauspicious things. You are a doctor. Do you think I am not one? Hand the matters regarding the birth over to me. You will be fine. Our family of three will be together with one another forever.”
“Okay.” Jian Han nodded her head. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Zhou Dayuan carried her up to let her sit up for a while, then he stood up and carried her downstairs.
He pushed the bedroom door open and placed her on the large, soft bed. He stretched his hand to pull the covers over her, and he saw sparkling tears on her face slowly flow down.
…
The days passed calmly and quietly. Jian Han felt safe. She sat in the psychological clinic everyday. She listened to the patients talk about their lives. She helped them to treat their illnesses, and she was very satisfied. Of course, the most satisfying thing in her life was that she would see that patient Zhou Dayuan every afternoon. The days did not change his warm and gentle appearance.
There was a day when she was about to get off work in the afternoon, but Zhou Dayuan did not come.
He would normally come at this time, but he did not come today.
Jian Han did not get off work. She sat in the office to wait for him, and she waited for half an hour. She felt bored, so she stood up as she wanted to go for a walk outside.
She opened the door of the office and saw her assistant Xiao Ping together with a few nurses. Even Xiao Li from the reception was gathered together with them in a group. They were grouped together with one another as they looked at the LCD television in the main lobby.
Jian Han followed their gazes over to have a look. There was an extremely familiar person that appeared on the LCD screen.
Zhou Dayuan.
He was very different from usual. It was different from his casual style. He was dressed very formally — a white shirt with a red coloured tie, a dark blue striped business vest on the outside, a black premium suit on the outside. As he walked into the bright and sparkling high level meeting, he pinched a folder between two fingers, and there were a group of immaculately dressed talents following behind him.
He walked forward, and there were people that seemed to be from the government who walked over and shook his hand. They chatted with each other softly, and there was a light smile on his handsome face.
There were some journalists that reported, “As everyone has seen, this is the official opening of the Zhou Jian Medical Charity Trust Fund. After today, the Zhou Jian medical organization, the Zhou Jian medical building, and the Zhou Jian Hope Primary School will be opened in succession all over the country. In one year’s time, the Zhou Jian medical chain will be covering the entire country.”
As she spoke, the journalist’s camera pointed towards the man who was under the spotlight as they took pictures of him from all angles. In the end, the camera landed on his warm, handsome face as the journalist introduced him. “Zhou Dayuan. He is 34 years old this year, and he was born on Wall Street in America. He studied at Oxford University, and he is the youngest double PhD holder in the medical sphere. He is in charge of two medical research institutes. He is known as a genius in the medical world. These few years, his medical team has found new key improvements in diabetes and heart disease medication, and it has shocked and wowed the entire medical community.
“It was around half a year ago when he slowly let go of the tasks in the operating theatre and slowly transitioned into the back office. Zhou Dayuan will follow his Zhou Jian Medical Charity throughout the entire country, and Doctor Zhou has turned into the number one person in charge of charity in the medicine in the country.”
Jian Han looked at the person in a blur. He…
Was this still him?
He was a doctor?
Wasn’t he her patient, Zhou Dayuan?
As Jian Han was in a blur, she heard the sound of chit chatting in her ears. “Wow, is that Doctor Zhou? I always knew that he was Doctor Zhou, but I didn’t know that he was that legendary Dr. Zhou.”
“That’s right, I also did not know that Doctor Zhou was actually the founder of the Zhou Jian Charity Trust Fund, the largest magnate of medical services in the country. I didn’t think that such a mighty and powerful person would actually appear by our sides. I don’t even dare to believe it.”
“That’s right.” There was a nurse that placed both of her small hands in front of her chest. Her eyes were filled with love as she said, “I didn’t think that he would be that Dr. Zhou in the medical world. He looks so handsome. His aura is also extremely warm. Forget about those long legged oppas. Young handsome guys — those people are really weak in comparison with Dr. Zhou.”
“Oy, did you hear about it? Actually, Dr Zhou is the only son of the king of wineries, Zhou Heng. After Zhou Heng passed away, other than the Zhou family winery that was handed over to Ning Qing to manage, all of the assets in Zhou Corporation were handed over to Dr. Zhou. He is so wealthy right now.”
Everyone was chatting with one another excitedly. At this moment, Jian Han’s assistant, Xiao Ping, saw that Xiao Li in charge of the reception did not say a single word throughout. She only knew how to look at the man on the LCD screen as she looked on in a daze.
Xiao Ping pushed Xiao Li for a moment and joked, “Xiao Li, how come you are in a daze as you look at Dr. Zhou? Don’t have those thoughts. Zhou Jian Charity Trust Fund, you would know by looking at the name itself. Others might not know, but we know after these months, Dr. Zhou is so loving and caring towards our Dr Jian. He treats her so preciously in his hands, afraid that anyone would harm her.”
“That’s right.” The nurses were mesmerized with him once again. “How is it possible to have such a perfect person on earth? He looks so warm and gentle and is so loyal in his life. Dr Jian must be so blissful.”
Xiao Li’s young and beautiful tiny face was crimson red. She turned around to come to the reception counter. She pretended to organize her documents as she said, “Don’t speak nonsense. I don’t have that intention… Furthermore, he is such a perfect man. Even if I admire and have some feelings for him. It is totally normal.”
“Admiration is admiration, but you better not cross the line. Dr. Zhou has a wife. He always wears his wedding ring.”
Xiao Li laughed and joked, “So what if he has a wife? He could get divorced. How many men on this earth do not like to have something fresh and new? Doctor Jian is pregnant now. This would be the easiest time to get into an affair. The richer and more powerful a man is, the more likely it is that he would look for younger and prettier girls.”
Jian Han did not know what Xiao Li continued to say, because she drooped her small head and shut the door of the office. She did not want to go out for a walk right now.
She only wanted to be alone.
…
Jian Han stayed in the office for another half an hour. She removed her shoes, and she curled her entire body up onto the sofa. There was a packet of cucumber flavoured chips on the coffee table, and she opened it to have a taste.
At this moment, there was the sound of steady footsteps outside the door. Although the footsteps were soft, her hearing was sharp; she heard it from the moment he walked in.
Zhou Dayuan was here.
The corners of her beautiful lips were curled up in an arc, and she moved her body to step onto the floor.
“Dr. Zhou.” Xiao Li was speaking, and her voice was passionate and sweet.
“Yeah.” That man was warm as he answered her.
The arc on the corners of Jian Han’s lips disappeared. Her figure was curled up lazily, and she did not want to move anymore. She used her small white fingers to pinch the chips, and she put it in her mouth to chew.
The door of the office was pushed open. A cool, clean, crisp air came in. She saw his sparkling black leather shoes by the side of the door in her peripheral vision. Above were his black trousers. It was cold outside. He wore a black coat. There was a heater in the office. As he came in, he lifted his hand to remove the coat that he was wearing.
Her assistant, Xiao Ping, was standing by his side. She stretched her hand out to receive the coat. “Dr. Zhou, let me have it.”
Zhou Dayuan did not look at Xiao Ping. His gentle gaze fixed on the small woman curled up on the sofa as she ate her chips. “There is no need for that. You can leave now.”
He said it plainly and he threw his coat on the other end of the sofa.
Xiao Ping’s excited gaze fell on the man’s handsome back profile, but she knew Dr. Zhou wanted to spend some time alone with his wife, so she retreated out of the room.
The door of the office was closed.
Zhou Dayuan had a glance at the chips on the coffee table, and he turned his gaze sideways to look at the meal tray on the book shelf. He would prepare afternoon tea for her everyday, but the bread and milk on the meal tray was not touched at all.
“Why are you eating chips? Chips do not have any nutrition in them. Don’t have too much of them, we will go home after this. Leave some room for dinner.”
Hearing him speak, Jian Han lifted her head to look at him. He stood tall and mighty by her side. He lifted his long, beautiful right hand and undid the buttons of his suit. As he removed his suit, it exposed his dark-blue striped business vest. He had a sculptured figure. His legs were long and straight. He looked like a model who walked for fashion week just by standing there.
His white shirt wrapped around his wrist. There was a diamond button on the wrist, and it was shimmering brightly under the light.
He was a clean and exquisite man from head to toe.
She drooped her small head down.
Zhou Dayuan noticed that she was being moody without saying a single word. He lifted his heels to walk over, bent down in front of her, and stretched his hand out to caress her silk-like hair. He gently asked, “What’s wrong? You are not happy to see me here?”
“No.” She answered softly as she stretched her hand out to take more chips while she chewed the chips.
But she was unable to reach for more.
She lifted her head to look. The bag of chips on the coffee table was moved away from her. With her slim arms, she was unable to reach for them.
Forget it, she would not eat them then.
She could not taste much flavour in them anyway.
She moved and used both of her slim arms to hug herself tight. She placed her small jaw onto her knees, and she was in a quiet daze.
Zhou Dayuan’s warm, dark eyes were almost on the brink of tears as he looked at her. Seven years ago, when he was in prison, she hid in her rental flat as she cried for him. When she went to that judge’s home, during the time she kneeled before the doors of his house on that rainy day, during the time she used her hand to dig the mud that was stained with her parent’s blood on that cliff, during the time she had a psychological illness during that two to three years, was she also like that — quiet and helpless?
