Married to the army by mistake, abstinent boss becomes addicted to pampering his wife

Chapter 282 Wait for me to recover

Having finally finished his porridge, Lu Cheng, not wanting to wait a second longer, immediately told Jiang Peng to leave:
"Go back to your ward and get some sleep. Get well soon."

Jiang Peng didn't detect Lu Cheng's disdain; instead, he was quite touched.

Giving him food and letting him sleep—what else is that but love?
"Brother-in-law, I'm going to go to sleep now. I'll come back to keep you company when I wake up."

Lu Cheng: Don't come.

After Jiang Peng left, Jiang Moli prepared to take the lunchbox and spoon to the water room to wash them.

Lu Cheng stopped her, "Don't bother, just leave it there, the nurse will clean it up later. Sit down and rest for a while, are you tired?"

It's a lie to say I'm not tired after such a long journey.

Jiang Moli put down her lunchbox and sat down on the stool.

Lu Cheng looked at her tenderly, "Did you come alone?"

Jiang Moli teased, "What, are you disappointed that your parents didn't come to visit you?"

Lu Cheng smiled and said, "It's enough that you're here. Their presence would be superfluous."

Lu Dezhao, who was in the extra position, had already received a call from Jiang Xiaoguang confirming that he was safe.

After hanging up the phone, he called An Hui again, "Don't worry, it's okay, that brat is lucky."

An Hui responded, but didn't react much.

Ma Hongmei, however, put her hands together and murmured a few times, "May the Bodhisattva protect us."

It wasn't that An Hui didn't care about her son's safety, but rather that they knew beforehand that her son's life was not in danger.

Given Lu Dezhao's rank, the military notified him immediately after Lu Cheng's incident.

When Jiang Peng called Jiang Moli, Lu Cheng had already received medical treatment and was no longer in danger.

However, the elderly couple had their own selfish motives and wanted the young couple to reunite, so they did not expose Jiang Peng's "lie" and instead actively sent their daughter-in-law over.

Clearly, Lu Cheng had also guessed the old couple's good intentions.

Worried that his wife would be angry after realizing what had happened, Lu Cheng tried to appease her by changing the subject:

"You must be tired after such a long drive. Come on up and get some rest."

Jiang Moli teased, "Sleep for a while? Are you referring to a verb or a noun?"

Lu Cheng was already used to his wife's roguish nature, and said without changing his expression, "Wait until I'm healed."

Jiang Moli pouted and said, "The bed is too small. You can sleep there by yourself. I'll go to the guesthouse."

"No need, I'll let you have it."

He then sat up in bed, put his legs off the edge, and gestured for Jiang Moli to lie down:

"You can sleep on the bed. I've been sleeping for two days and my bones are all tired. I'll sit for a while."

Hearing him say that, Jiang Moli didn't stand on ceremony. She took off her coat and draped it over the man, then took off her shoes and crawled into bed.

The bed was warm from the man's body heat and smelled his unique scent, and Jiang Moli quickly fell asleep.

Seeing that she was asleep, Lu Cheng clutched his left rib in pain.

The bullet hit his ribs but didn't damage his internal organs, yet he was in excruciating pain with the slightest movement.

But in order to keep his wife in bed, he stubbornly suppressed any sign of anything amiss.

Looking at his sweet and soft wife on the bed, even the pain felt like happiness.

Not long after, Wei Huihui brought the medicine into the ward.

Seeing Lu Cheng sitting on the edge of the bed, she was taken aback. Then, looking at Jiang Moli sleeping soundly on the hospital bed, her anger flared up instantly.

She walked to the bedside and opened her mouth to wake Jiang Moli, but was interrupted by Lu Cheng:
"We need to change the dressing, right? Don't wake my wife, let's go outside to change it."

Wei Huihui could hardly believe her ears, "Battalion Commander Lu, you're the one who's the patient..."

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't disturb her, let's go."

Seeing that he was determined to walk out of the ward, Wei Huihui kindly reached out a hand to help him, but Lu Cheng waved his hand and refused: "No need, I can walk by myself."

Wei Huihui clearly realized that Lu Cheng was avoiding suspicion. She turned around and glared at Jiang Moli, who was sleeping soundly on the hospital bed. She felt both envious and jealous.

Such a capable and devoted man, yet he ended up with a wife who doesn't know how to be considerate and gentle.

"Disdain value +1, 10000 yuan credited."

Outside the ward. Lu Cheng sat on a bench in the family rest area, while Wei Huihui half-knelt on the ground to change Lu Cheng's dressing.

"Battalion Commander Lu, your injuries require you to rest in bed. I'll find you another bed so you can change your dressing and rest."

"Need not."

"But……"

"Nurse Wei, I know my own body well, so you don't need to worry about me. By the way, could you please wash the lunchboxes and spoons on the cabinet?"

Wei Huihui felt resentful that her good intentions were misunderstood and that she was even ordered to wash lunch boxes.

Although taking care of Lu Cheng's daily life is her duty, that's only when family members aren't around. When family members are present, these things should be done by them.

Back at the nurses' station, Wei Huihui angrily complained to her fellow nurses about Jiang Moli.

"This is truly an eye-opener. In all my years as a nurse, I have never seen a patient being forced out of bed while family members occupy the bed and sleep soundly."

"It's really hard to understand how someone like her could marry such a good man as Battalion Commander Lu."

Hearing everyone's condemnation and criticism of Jiang Moli, Wei Huihui felt much better.

"Disdain value +4, 40000 yuan credited."

Jiang Moli was woken up by the notification sound of the "Dislike Value" being credited to her account.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Lu Cheng sitting opposite her on the hospital bed, his back against the wall, silently watching her.

Seeing that she was awake, he happily got up and walked over: "Did you sleep well?"

His wife has finally woken up and can talk to him now.

Jiang Moli misunderstood his impatience, thinking he had been waiting too long, and got up to give up her hospital bed.

"Come up and sleep here."

Lu Cheng didn't refuse, but after sitting for two hours, his body was starting to give out.

Jiang Moli poured a glass of water, drank two sips herself, and fed the rest to Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng didn't mind drinking what she left over at all; on the contrary, he looked very happy.

"Honey, I need to use the restroom."

Jiang Moli bent down and took out the chamber pot from under the bed, then lifted the blanket.

"Tsk, it's in pretty good spirits."

"It's saluting and greeting you."

Jiang Moli found the man's mouth amusing and used the urinal spout to push it in.

The sound of running water echoed in the ward.

Jiang Moli asked casually, "Who's been helping you pee these past two days?"

The sound of water stopped abruptly.

Jiang Moli raised an eyebrow: "It's over? It's so short?"

The hissing sound started again.

Lu Cheng's face showed a rare hint of guilt. "When you're unconscious, you shouldn't need to urinate, right?"

Jiang Moli asked the question casually.

I would say I mind, but not that much.

After all, it was in a hospital, and in the eyes of medical staff, it was just an organ.

"I will never let myself get hurt again."

"You rest for a while, I'm going to the restroom."

Jiang Moli quickly helped him put on his pants and then took the chamber pot and went out.

Watching her hurried figure, Lu Cheng clearly misunderstood that she was unhappy, and felt both depressed and happy.

What's frustrating is that he doesn't know who touched him while he was unconscious.

The wife is angry because she is jealous, and jealousy means she cares about him.

Lu Cheng had no idea that Jiang Moli rushed out to see what was going on outside, which was causing her to keep getting disliked.
