When the two of them arrived at room 021, Huo Beijiang was standing at the door like a door god, with his hands tucked in his pockets. His face turned even grimmer on seeing them.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” The young nurse kept apologizing, but he didn’t even bother to look at her.
“Hello, I’m Nan Fei’s cousin.” Jiang Minmin smiled and extended her hand to Huo Beijiang, wanting to shake hands with him.
Huo Beijiang didn’t take his hand out. Instead, he looked at Jiang Minmin skeptically, then turned his head to ask the young nurse, “Is she your supervisor?”
“Ah? Oh yes, her skills are superior to mine.”
“But I think her professional ethics are not as good as yours. The patient is still having a high fever, but she didn’t go to administer fluids promptly; instead, she’s standing here chitchatting with the patient’s family. Your hospital really is appalling. I should talk to the dean of your hospital tomorrow.”
“I’m sorry! Please do not complain about us.” The young nurse quickly apologized, then whispered to Jiang Minmin, “Master, I heard that he has connections with the dean of our hospital. We can’t afford to offend him.”
The confident smile on Jiang Minmin’s face was gone, she huffed and turned to go inside.
The eldest of the Jiang family was a barefoot doctor in the village, and Jiang Minmin went to health school directly after completing junior middle school. After graduation, she managed to get a job in the county hospital through connections. Over two years, her skills in intravenous fluid transfusion and needle insertion have become quite good.
With Huo Beijiang watching on the side, she dared not be careless, she found the vein on her first attempt.
“All right! Call us when one bottle is almost finished.” Jiang Minmin huffed and left. When she reached the door, she unwillingly turned back for another look at Huo Beijiang who was standing by the bedside.
The flame in her heart grew fiercer.
No wonder her mother always said that the grandmother favored others. She is now curious to see if her grandmother’s heart is on the right. Obviously, she is the eldest granddaughter of the Jiang family, but the good things always went to Jiang Nanfei instead of her.

Once the door to the ward closed, Huo Beijiang remained at the bedside, his deep eyes fixed on Nan Fei uninterruptedly. It was only late into the night when the IV drip finished and Nan Fei’s high fever subsided.
Nan Fei opened her eyes in a daze and saw Huo Beijiang’s cold side profile. His high nose bridge, dimpled eye sockets, lips lightly pursed. And the perfect line from his nose bridge to his neck.
Beautiful and delicate, yet sharp and forceful.
When he wasn’t talking or expressing anything, he looked a lot like he did in his previous life.
Serious, dignified, restrained, but with an intimidating presence that made him seem unapproachable.
As soon as Huo Beijiang turned his head and saw his wife was staring at him, he couldn’t help but raise a mischievous smile, and then teased, “Do you find me more and more attractive? More and more likable as you look?”
Nan Fei’s pale cheeks gradually turned crimson, she stuttered and uncomfortably said, “where is my brother? Is he really okay?”
In her coma, she was most worried about Jiang Yang.
“Don’t worry, he’s doing well, he is in the next room. Your mother is with him.”
Nan Fei’s face reddened even further, she muttered in a low voice, “Who is your mother-in-law? Please don’t talk nonsense.”
Huo Beijiang raised his eyebrows, countered, “Isn’t your mom my mother-in-law? Is it incorrect for a son-in-law to call his mother-in-law, should I call her mother instead?”
“Pfft…” Nan Fei burst out laughing, picturing the tall Huo Beijiang following her mother around and calling her mother.
“My dear wife.” Huo Beijiang’s voice was husky. He leaned over, his thick eyelashes nearly touching Nan Fei’s forehead. His deep gaze lingered on her as if it was an endless whirlpool, capable of drawing all souls into it.
