Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 339 Take action when it’s time to take action

"What do you mean by bleeding? Can you take responsibility if something goes wrong?"

Xiao Shen retorted coldly, leaving the doctor speechless.

"Inspect carefully again. If anything happens to the lady, I will hold you responsible!"

The doctor, trembling, replied, "Yes!"

Su Ying said nonchalantly, "Fourth Master, you're making a mountain out of a molehill. I'm perfectly fine right now!"
"Whether it's good or not isn't up to you. You'd better stay in bed and behave yourself for the rest of the time, understand?"

Su Ying's face instantly fell. Being locked up in the house and not allowed to go out was already bad enough, and now she couldn't even get out of bed? Was there no justice in the world?
"What? You're not happy?"

With her chin lifted, Su Ying pouted in dissatisfaction, "I'm a person, not your caged bird! Try being locked up here every day, I guarantee you'll go crazy!"

The man gently stroked her soft skin with his fingertips. "Silly girl, I'll stay with you!"

Su Ying: “…”

Come on, she's better off than herself.

Xiao Shen kept his word and didn't go to the company these past few days, focusing on staying home with her. For the first two days, he insisted on not letting her get out of bed, and he would lie in bed with her, play mobile games with her, read books with her, and watch dramas with her.

During this time, he fully displayed the image of a considerate and loving husband, and Su Ying had the illusion that he really loved her.

For a fleeting moment, she even hoped that this wonderful husband could continue forever.

Three days later, Su Ying was finally allowed to get out of bed. The scary thing was that she had gained five pounds in those few days, but her complexion was much rosier and she had more energy. This was all thanks to the tonic soups Xiao Shen had given her.

Su Ying was finally able to go out. Su Wen and Qing Yan prepared to return to the city. Before leaving, they met with Su Ying, who had promised to treat them to a meal.

At the dinner table, she tried to play matchmaker for Su Wen and Qingyan, "Qingyan, have you ever thought about finding another father for Xiaokai?"

"Pfft! Cough cough..." Su Wen choked on a mouthful of beer, his face turning red.

Su Ying handed him a tissue, "I was just chatting with Qingyan about everyday things, why are you getting so worked up?"

"Who, who's getting agitated?" Su Wen wiped his mouth clean. "This is Qingyan's private matter. I suggest you mind your own business. Also, Xiao Kai is still young. If we find him a new father at this age, he'll be resistant. It's not too late to wait until he's older!"

"It's even better if he's young. Think about it, while he's still immature, we should find him a new dad as soon as possible. As long as we treat him well, he'll subconsciously recognize him as his father and be more likely to accept him. Isn't that great?"

Su Wen waved his hands frantically, "No, no, not at all! Stop meddling! Xiao Kai has so many of us who love him, he doesn't need another dad. Besides, how many good men are there these days? Can he really be good to Xiao Kai?"

Su Ying narrowed her eyes. "I'm saying, do you not want Qingyan to find a boyfriend?"

"Nonsense, of course I don't want to, I..." Su Wen realized he had let something slip and quickly covered his mouth.

It's easy to use drinking to cover up a blush.

Su Ying cleared her throat. "Actually, we're all adults. Some things aren't so shameful. It's not easy to meet someone you like in this life. If you're in love, then go for it and don't leave any regrets. What do you all think?"

She nodded lightly, "You're right!"

Su Ying chimed in, "I think so too!"

The three clinked glasses.

As they chatted, someone started talking about Shen Qingfeng.

Shen Qingfeng is still in the hospital, which is why he couldn't come to this gathering. Whenever he was mentioned, Su Ying would fall silent.

How is his injury now?

“He’s recovering, but the healing is going well. He said he wants to go back to Haicheng, but the doctor advised him to wait a while. Xiaoying, you should try to persuade him. I feel like he’s determined to leave because of you, maybe he’s afraid of causing you trouble!” Su Ying turned her face away. “You all know my current situation. Fourth Master will be angry, so you can pass on some of my words for me. I think he’ll understand!”

Su Wen also agreed.

Suddenly, Su Ying's gaze fixed on something not far away, and Su Wen and Qingyan also turned around at the same time.

"Dr. Shen?"

Shen Qingfeng smiled sheepishly, "Sorry, did I disturb you?"

He stood in the darkness, thin and pale, even his lips were bloodless, but his warm and gentle eyes were still bright and warm.

He walked over slowly, each step appearing laborious.

Su Ying quickly went to help him up, "You're not fully recovered yet, why did you run out? What if your wound reopens?"

Su Ying, with her eyes fixed on the surface, pretended not to know anything.

Su Ying finally understood why Su Wen insisted on eating near the hospital; it was probably because he tipped off Shen Qingfeng.

"You two can continue your conversation, we're leaving now!"

Before she could say anything more, Su Wenqiang dragged her away.

"Have you eaten? Would you like me to order something light?"

Shen Qingfeng gave a slight smile, "I've already eaten, so you don't need to worry!"

Su Ying scolded playfully, "Really, why did you come out? Su Wen said your wound hasn't fully healed yet. No, I'll take you back. Why didn't the hospital keep an eye on you?"

"I'm fine, it's just that it got too stuffy inside. I'll leave after sitting for a while!"

Su Ying could deeply understand the feeling of being imprisoned because she had experienced it before, so she allowed it and asked the waiter to bring hot water for Shen Qingfeng to drink.

"Su Ying, I heard everything you just said!"

Su Ying paused, her hand holding the cup still.

"You don't need to see me, I'm here to see you!"

"Dr. Shen..."

"I know I've put you in a difficult position, and I'm truly sorry. If I've caused you any stress, I'll leave as soon as my injuries heal."

Su Ying bit her lip. "That's not what I meant. Actually, we've already talked things out. Let's be good friends like before, right?"

“Good friend…” Shen Qingfeng pondered these three words with a deeper meaning, then suddenly his lips curled into a bitter smile, “But I don’t want to be friends with you!”

Su Ying suddenly looked up at him, and Shen Qingfeng was also looking at him.

"I thought I would have a chance, taking advantage of your dislike for Xiao Shen, even your hatred for him. I thought that as long as I was sincere and devoted enough, I could definitely make you mine. But I was wrong. I was terribly wrong. It turns out that deep affection alone isn't enough. I know you are now Xiao Shen's legal wife, and you are pregnant with his child, but I still want to fight for one last chance..."

He straightened his back, as if gathering his courage, and said, slowly and deliberately, "Su Ying, would you like to come with me?"

As long as she agrees, he will take her away without regard for the consequences and treat the child in her womb as his own.

Su Ying was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Dr. Shen, please don't joke like that. It's not funny at all!"

"I'm not joking!" Shen Qingfeng grasped her hand. "I'm speaking very seriously, Su Ying, are you willing?"
