It's hard to quit, but it's the perfect marriage!
Chapter 46 The gentleman in the bridal chamber
The tech launch event turned into an entertainment interview because of this incident.
The newly developed robot by Fanzhou Technology has become the perfect backdrop for weddings.
"In her early years, Ms. Liang publicly stated on Weibo that she wanted to go to New Zealand to wait for her Prince Charming."
The reporter smiled, and Zhu Xi sensed genuine envy in her smile.
Zhu Xi looked at the blurry words "medical AI" and felt it was ironic.
She didn't read what Zhou Yinghuai said after that.
She felt that if her blood kept flowing, she would be the one needing emergency care.
Zhou Yinghuai should laugh at her for having such convenient access to the hospital, yet still going to meet the King of Hell.
She picked up the chief resident's cell phone and tiptoed to the nurses' station.
The hospital corridor was not brightly lit late at night; it was long and quiet.
The only sounds were Zhu Xi's own breathing and heartbeat.
Like a ghost, she tossed down a tissue covered in blood.
A tissue wiped Xiaoyue's nose and landed on the keyboard, startling her awake from her nap.
"Damn it, Zhu Xi, are you going to send me to the morgue on the basement floor?!"
Zhu Xi pouted, her eyes glistening with moisture, and gently lifted her leg high to show the wound on the instep that was almost healed.
"Please save me! I don't want my leg amputated!"
Xiaoyue remained silent.
He threw the blood-stained tissue back at Zhu Xi.
"Aren't you going to take care of me?"
Xiaoyue, panting heavily, shouted, "Get out!"
Zhu Xi narrowed her eyes and made a move to lie down on the ground.
Xiaoyue jumped to her feet, pointed at her, and yelled, "You fucking trying to scam me!"
As he spoke, he walked out of the nurses' station, cursing and swearing.
"Does your husband know about this kind of behavior you're exhibiting?"
Zhu Xi hummed in agreement. "Obviously, he doesn't know."
"Does your best friend know about your shameless, attention-seeking behavior?"
Zhu Xi, having succeeded, raised an eyebrow and said, "Aren't you my best friend?"
Xiaoyue: "No, I don't refer to myself by my job title during work hours!"
"Why didn't you say that when you were eating my strawberries?" Zhu Xi sneered. "You're lucky to even get to eat a strawberry leaf."
Xiaoyue went to the medicine preparation room inside and picked up two cotton swabs soaked in iodine and a band-aid.
He gave her a perfunctory wipe, his movements not very gentle. "How did you manage to scratch the instep?"
Zhu Xi blatantly lied, "A wandering ghost drifted in through the window, broke a vase, and injured me!"
Xiaoyue: "Is that ghost more evil than you?"
At this moment, President Zhu sat in her chair like a king, criticizing the report that Xiaoyue had just prepared.
"The line spacing is wrong, and the formatting is inconsistent." Zhu Xi was having a great time nitpicking, completely unaware of how similar her tone of voice was to Zhou Yinghuai's.
Xiaoyue applied more pressure with her hand, pressing harder on the band-aid.
Zhu Xi winced in pain, her brows furrowing. "You're openly murdering me?"
Xiaoyue put her feet down and threw the cotton swab into the yellow medical waste bin. "President Zhu, you're in a bad mood. You got the short end of the stick."
Zhu Xi scoffed, "You're talking nonsense!"
Xiaoyue hooked her chin, "The last time you scolded everyone like this was when Lezhishi stole three of your surgeries in a row."
"This month's schedule was handled diligently by Lezhi Shi, without any disagreement from you. Since it wasn't Lezhi Shi who offended you, the only one who could make you look so defeated is you, a man!"
You! Are! Men!
These three words are an invisible lash against Zhu Xi.
Was she really provoked by Zhou Yinghuai?
Zhu Xicai didn't believe it.
She snorted and wiggled her ankle. "I think I'll go see an orthopedic specialist."
After saying that, he put his hands in his pockets and left with a dashing air.
Xiaoyue watched her retreating figure and chuckled to herself, "Stubborn as ever!"
-
The day before the wedding.
Zhu Xi was reassigned to a different shift.
Make Lezhi pay back the debt she owed for helping him clean up his mess before.
In order to relieve the nausea and vomiting, I specifically asked Dr. Huang from the department to help me stay and take care of things.
"Dr. Huang, thank you."
Dr. Huang smiled, sipping the milk tea and fried chicken that Zhu Xi had bought for her. "It's just a night shift, Mr. Zhu, you can go without worry."
Lezhi had nothing but a can of Red Bull and no fried chicken skins.
Why aren't you thanking me?
Zhu Xi straightened the collar of his white coat. "I've cleaned up your mess so many times, now it's your turn to repay me."
The two bantered, while Dr. Huang ate, drank, and watched the fun from the sidelines.
Lezhi couldn't argue with her, nor was she as good as her, so she could only try to disgust her from a different angle.
"That's strange. How could someone as boring as Zhu Xi go on a date?" Le Zhishi said disdainfully. "That man looks respectable, but I didn't expect him to be blind."
Dr. Huang was amused and almost spat out his milk tea.
Zhu Xi paused, then asked in confusion, "Brother Huang, isn't that amazing? How could such a tiny fertilized egg grow into such a pretentious thing as Le Zhishi?"
Lezhi was once again rendered speechless by her teasing.
The only recourse was to turn the gun on Dr. Huang, who was eating, drinking, and watching the commotion. "Brother Huang, are you so eager to help her with her shifts because you're worried your wife will pester you for a second child? Take some time to go see a urologist; don't avoid seeking medical help."
Dr. Huang: "..."
Talk about it, talk about it, make trouble.
Zhu Xi made sure all the work was arranged and double-checked before she felt comfortable changing clothes and going downstairs.
Downstairs in the inpatient building.
Master Bai is waiting for her.
Zhu Xi shielded her eyes from the glaring midday sun as she walked toward the black Maybach.
"Madam," Master Bai opened the car door for her, "Your husband sent me to pick you up."
Zhu Xi smiled, looked at the empty back row, and glanced up at the blinding sunlight.
Thank you.
As the Maybach left the hospital, Master Bai asked softly, "Where is Madam going?"
Zhu Xi looked out the window; her phone screen was still lit up.
It was Zhou Yinghuai who asked her last night if she wanted to go and see the bridal chamber.
She didn't open any of the gifts he prepared for her.
Master Bai's question was clearly at Zhou Yinghuai's behest.
Because Zhou Yinghuai asked her if she wanted to go to the bridal chamber, and said that he would live in the bridal chamber starting tomorrow.
She saw it, but didn't reply.
Where is Zhou Yinghuai?
Master Bai: "The husband is in the bridal chamber. He moved some personal belongings there today."
"oh."
She didn't say anything else.
Soon we will reach the intersection where we need to choose the direction.
Zhu Xi wrapped herself in the blanket prepared in the car, closed her eyes, and whispered, "Go back to my own home."
