Chapter 30 Betrothal Gift
The things she used to save her life were not something she would eat as a last resort, and she was really reluctant to give them to others.
Wen Wan sighed and raised her hand to touch Shen Yu's face.
"So, Ah Chai, if you wake up, you must remember my friendship. I gave you my life, so don't let me down."
Gao Ling had some experience with her, so even though the doctor had said there was nothing he could do to save her, Gao Ling still had a glimmer of hope.
The doctor was old and couldn't stay up late, so he fell asleep while leaning on his chair.
Gao Ling and Wen Wan sat beside the bed. Their faces were full of exhaustion, but they both persisted with energy.
The morning light is dawning, and warmth fills the sky and earth.
Outside the window, there was an early bird chirping on the branches. I don’t know if its chirping attracted a response from insects. But after a while, various sounds in the yard were mixed together, making it very lively.
Shen Yu slowly opened his eyes, turned his head, and met Wen Wan's sleepy eyes.
As if he remembered something, he couldn't help but smile on his pale face.
"You gave me your lifeblood, I will not let you down..."
His lips were dry and his voice was low when he spoke.
Wen Wan noticed it the moment he woke up, and when she heard him say these words, her cheeks immediately turned red.
"You, you...you are unconscious, can you still hear us?"
Shen Yu responded and said weakly: "I'm confused, I can hear a little."
Seeing that he really woke up, Gao Ling covered her mouth excitedly, looking like she was about to cry with emotion.
Gao Ling didn't know what to say, so he jumped up and down twice as if to vent his anger, like a child.
Shen Yu glanced at him with disgust, his throat rolled, he calmed down, and then said softly: "You are tired all night, go and have a rest."
Wen Wan was about to nod when she heard Gao Ling wave his hand.
"Why should I sleep? I am too happy to sleep now!"
Wen Wan: "..."
If she said she wanted to sleep now, would it look like she was being compared?
Therefore, she pursed her lips in grievance and glared at Gao Ling secretly and plaintively.
Shen Yu saw her little move in his eyes and raised the corner of his mouth, "Then you stay, Xiaowan... go and rest."
Nodding gently and gratefully, "Yeah! Then you should have a good rest, and I'll take a nap?"
"Okay." Shen Yu smiled fondly.
*
Wen Wan's so-called "take a nap", and when she woke up again, it was already a day and a night later.
During this sleep, I slept in a deep and dark place, but I was also extremely satisfied.
After she washed up, she walked out of the room and happened to meet the innkeeper carrying a food box.
The innkeeper greeted warmly, "Girl, you are awake. Please wait a moment. Your meal has been being heated for you in the kitchen. I will send you a room in a moment."
Wen Wan was startled, "Is it always hot?"
The innkeeper explained with a smile, "Seeing that you were sleeping soundly, Captain Zhou was afraid that you would be hungry when you woke up, so he asked someone to heat up the food for you so that you can eat it when you wake up."
"Oh." Wen Wan responded. As a wounded man, he still had time to explain this?
She smiled and said: "I just want to see him too. I will send my meal to his room in a while so that we can eat together to save trouble."
"Okay." The waiter turned around and went to the kitchen to pick up the meal.
Wen Wan was pulled to the wing in a happy mood, and the door was not closed tightly.
She raised her hand to open the door and saw the doctor changing Shen Yu's dressing.
He was injured at the root of his thigh, so Wen Wan only glanced at him briefly, took a deep breath, turned around and wanted to leave.
"Mrs. Zhou, stay!"
The doctor stopped her directly, "Now that Mrs. Zhou is here, she can help the old man."
"Huh?" Wen Wan coughed twice, "This, this is inconvenient."
He wasn't wearing pants, so how could she help him?
Just look at her abdominal muscles, no more and she's afraid of nosebleeds!
No, no, no, although she speaks freely, she is a good young man with a good socialist education and will definitely stick to the bottom line! The doctor glanced at her with a puzzled face, "What's the inconvenience for this? Aren't you a couple?"
Fake!
It’s a fake couple!
But I can't say this now.
Sure enough, if you tell a lie, you need a hundred lies to cover it up.
Wen Wan felt regretful, but didn't know how to explain it. For a moment, she stood motionless at the door like a wooden stake.
Shen Yu's eyes fell on her back, and his face turned red uncomfortably.
"Doctor, it's better to ask your little medicine boy to help. My wife is thin-skinned. She will definitely feel embarrassed if there are outsiders here in broad daylight."
Hearing this, the doctor nodded in agreement, "That's true. I was the one who was rude."
He said to Wen Wan again: "Then please ask Mrs. Zhou to call the medicine boy for me."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
There was no way Wen Wan would not agree, so she trotted over to catch the little medicine boy.
After the doctor changed the medicine and left, Wen Wan plucked up the courage to step into the room again.
After pouring herself a glass of water, she asked, "Where is Brother Gao? Why isn't he here?"
"He went to send the Queen Mother Temple to deal with the aftermath."
Shen Yu frowned when he saw her going to get the teapot again, "The tea is cold. Drink less to quench your thirst. If you still want to drink, ask the innkeeper to make you another pot."
Wen Wan hesitated and put the cup down.
She came to the bedside, bent down, and stared at Shen Yu curiously, "Why do I feel that you feel like a different person after being injured like this?"
Shen Yu raised his eyebrows, "Is there any?"
"Yes!" With his terrible temper before, how could he care whether she drank cold tea or not?
Shen Yu was noncommittal, "If you survive the catastrophe, there will be some changes."
"That's right." Wen Wan sat down by the bed and stretched out her palm to him with her fingers spread wide.
Shen Yu didn't understand.
Wen Wan: "The life-saving medicine I gave you costs you five hundred taels each. Isn't it expensive?"
Shen Yu sneered, "I really fell into the eyes of money."
Wen Wan sat up straight, "You have no idea how much effort I put into making such a small bottle. Even if I do it now, it will take three months to make it. And in these three months, if I If you are sick and injured, there is no way to save your life, so five hundred taels for you is really not expensive.”
Anyway, he has money, so if she wants a little compensation, it's not too much.
After hearing this, Shen Yu's face became heavy.
Wen Wan thought he wouldn't agree, so she compromised in a low voice, "If you think five hundred taels is too expensive, three hundred taels will go to the head office..."
"Five thousand taels." Shen Yu interrupted her in a deep voice.
Wen Wan's eyes were filled with shock, thinking that she had heard wrongly.
Reverse counteroffer, is he out of his mind?
Wen Wan: "Did you not hear clearly? Let me say it again, I said five hundred taels."
"I know."
Shen Yu stared at her with burning eyes, and his eyes instantly became gentle.
He smiled and said: "The five thousand taels I mentioned is the betrothal gift I gave you."
Wen Wan feels that she is sick and confused now and is hearing hallucinations.
"Bride price?"
Does he know what these two words mean?
