Actually, it wasn't a sandbox love between her and Lu Boyan but the secretary looked highly satisfied after she made things up herself . Su Jianan did not want to explain too much . She drank a few mouths of porridge and put down her chopsticks and returned to lie down in the room .
She thought about it carefully and realized that there were many things Lu Boyan had not told her about in detail .
She had been taken hostage by a killer a few days ago and he had appeared at the scene . He brought people to save her when he found out that he had been surrounded . He happened to pass by the police station and picked her up after she worked through the night . Yesterday, he had come back early intentionally . . .
He had done all of these naturally and had never told her much about it . She was not a careful person and she would slowly forget things as time passed . But now that she pieced everything up together, she realized that Lu Boyan had already done many things for her .
If not for the special reason behind their marriage, she would almost think that Lu Boyan liked her .
But Tang Yulan had ordered him to take care of her . Lu Boyan was very obedient and he might just be doing what she said .
Since he had not said anything, she should not think too much into it .
As for his momentary loss of control yesterday, forgot it . She would forgive him since he had left his dignity behind and gone to buy her sanitary pads .
The gnawing pain hit her again as she ruminated . Su Jianan slid into the blankets, hunched over and closed her eyes .
She vaguely heard the secretary making a call—
"She ate a little . . . and went back to sleep . . . doesn't look very comfortable . OK, rest assured . I'll call if anything crops up . "
She should be calling Lu Boyan but why did he not call her directly?
Su Jianan dozed off sleepily before she could think of an answer .
In the branch company of Lu Enterprises .

Lu Boyan asked after Su Jianan and then hung up and continued to work . He even ate lunch in the office .
Shen Yuechuan heard that Su Jianan was not feeling well and did not dare to speak nonsense . He worked steadily and hard to help Lu Boyan complete their work . They were busy until about six in the evening before their day of work was finally over .
Lu Boyan hurried back to the hotel before his file was even shut . The secretary said that Su Jianan had been sleeping since one in the afternoon and woke up twice to use the bathroom . She did not speak much and seemed to grow even more uncomfortable as time passed . However, she said she did not need to see a doctor .
He allowed the secretary to knock off and entered the room .
Su Jianan did not switch on the light . Half the room was swathed in darkness while the other was lit by the light coming in from the French windows . She was sleeping in the dark on the large and soft bed . Her dark and thick lashes were closed and her complexion seemed even paler than the sheets . She seemed even weaker than she had been in the morning .
The Little Monster seemed to be heavily injured and was on the brink of death .
Lu Boyan could not help but feel heartache . He squatted by the bed and asked, "Shall I send you to the hospital?"
Su Jianan could hear him and knew that he had returned . She shook her head, "I don't want to go . . . "
She did not like hospitals . Furthermore, she was not ill .
Lu Boyan pushed away the black hair on her forehead and asked gently, "Then get up, I'll take you to have some food . "
Su Jianan opened her eyes then . There was finally some shine in her black eyes as she asked, "What are we eating?"
"We can have whatever you want . "
This was the first time Lu Boyan was indulging in her so directly . It was as if Su Jianan had been given a free pass to be whimsical . Countless delicacies from G City floated into her mind . In the end, her appetite won the war against the pain in her lower abdomen . She heaved herself up, combed her somewhat messy long hair and followed Lu Boyan out of the door .
She had not expected to have overestimated herself . She felt something gushing out of her just as she reached the door . The pain grew sharper . Her legs weakened and she fell downwards . "Lu Boyan . . . " Even her voice was weak .

Lu Boyan saw that she was swaying and about to fall . He turned around and quickly caught hold of her . "Jianan!"
Su Jianan felt weak . She tried to look into Lu Boyan's eyes and saw that his deep-set eyes were not as cold as usual . Instead, there was anxiety in them .
He was worried for her like they said .
She wanted to see it more clearly to ascertain that she was not hallucinating . However, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier . Finally, everything went black and she could not feel anything anymore .
"Su Jianan!"
Lu Boyan hugged her, feeling extremely worried . He knew that she had just fainted but he felt as if the world in his hands was slipping away .
He was afraid . He was afraid he would lose this person just like how he had lost his father forever when he was 16 .
The private lift reached the first floor . He carried Su Jianan and exited the lift with quick steps . The hotel manager had seen him a few times and he had always been calm and elegant as if he had the entire world under his feet . But now, he cradled a person in his embrace carefully . His brows were furrowed and his eyes were so dark one could not see any emotions in them . But if one looked carefully, they would see the worry in his eyes .
The manager did not know what happened . He quickly got the driver to prepare the car and followed after them to open the car door for Lu Boyan .
Lu Boyan carried Su Jianan onto the car, "To the hospital . Get Shen Yuechuan to contact the hospital and make arrangements . "
"Yes!"
The driver did not dare to waste a second . He stepped on the accelerator and the car, which had good performance car shot forward like an arrow and into the traffic . It sped past cars after cars toward the biggest private hospital in the city .
Lu Boyan cradled Su Jianan in his chest . He touched her hand and found that they were icy cold down to the tips . He took off his jacket and covered her with it . Then, he felt that it was not enough, and he hugged her even tighter .
Su Jianan looked more like she was sleeping . She leaned against his chest obediently . Her breathing was faint and light as if she was a tired child .
Lu Boyan's long fingers that had obvious joints touched her face . Only then did he allow the heartache he felt to show .

If possible, he was willing to bear the torture on her behalf and let her return to her lively self .
Shen Yuechuan had already made arrangements with the hospital . The best doctors and nurses were waiting . They received Su Jianan quickly and orderly the moment Lu Boyan's car stopped and they sent her into the emergency room .
Shen Yuechuan saw Su Jianan's color from behind the doctors and nurses . He made a tsk sound and said, "She looks rather pitiful . How did she fall so ill?" No wonder Lu Boyan's frown was so tight it could squish a fly .
Actually, she was not ill . The presiding doctor called Lu Boyan into her office after the emergency treatment, telling him not to worry . "It must be an old problem that cannot be treated in a short time . Western medicine can only give her temporary relief from the pain . She has to slowly regulate it in the future . "
"Why did this happen?" Lu Boyan asked .
"This kind of situation is indeed rare . It is because she did not take care when she was younger . " The female doctor wrote a line of words on a post-it . "Go look for a traditional Chinese medicine doctor . This is the best TCM doctor in A City with the oldest credentials . Make an appointment after her period ends and have her pulse taken . This won't happen after she regulates her body for half a year . "
Lu Boyan took the post-it and went to see Su Jianan in the ward .
The ward was white and was the same color as her face . They were both lifeless . She laid on the bed, the blankets only covering up to her chest . The shape of her collarbones was very obvious . Her neck was so slender it seemed fragile . He thought it was good looking in the past, but he only discovered now that she was thin . She was 1 . 67 meters but seemed weightless when he carried her .
Su Jianan who was in deep sleep seemed to have sensed Lu Boyan's gaze . Her long lashes fluttered and her eyes slowly opened .
Shew as very sensitive about hospitals . When she discovered she was in one when she regained consciousness, she struggled and tried to get up . Lu Boyan pressed her down and said, "You're on a drip . "
Actually, the drip was just to give her an energy boost . She wanted to pull the needle out . "I want to go back to the hotel . "
Lu Boyan stopped her . "Go back once you're done with the drip . Jianan, why are you so afraid of hospitals?"
She was so afraid and worried that he would leave the last time he sent her for a checkup at a hospital in the middle of the night . This time, she wanted to leave when she woke up to find herself in a hospital . She was obviously afraid of hospitals .
"My mother died in a hospital . "
Su Jianan still remembered when she was 15 where everything suddenly ended in the heavy sounds . The pungent smell of disinfectants of the hospital, the four white walls and the white cloth that covered her mother's face . She looked just like she had fallen asleep, but the doctor said that she had passed away . She would never open her eyes again .
At that time, the despair in her heart was even greater than the whiteness in the entire world . For a long time after that, she often dreamed of large patches of white . When she saw the color white, she felt a sense of hopelessness about to engulf her .
She looked at Lu Boyan, almost pleadingly, and said, "We can go anywhere . I don't want to stay in the hospital . "
"You fainted from the pain . You have to stay until the drip is done . " Lu Boyan could not bear to look at her coldly . "Jianan, my father passed away in the hospital as well . The hospital is not the culprit that had taken them away . You cannot use this sort of excuse to escape from it . "
Su Jianan knew that, but she would think of her mother's death when she saw a hospital . She could not help but curl into her blankets and said, "How long more until the drip is done?"
"Half an hour . " After a pause, Lu Boyan said softly, "I'll keep you company here . Don't be afraid . "
Su Jianan's eyes had regained its shine . Her dark eyes looked at Lu Boyan steadily as if he was a little foreign . Then, her gaze slowly returned to normal after a moment and she made a sound of ascent .
She would not deny it . Lu Boyan's words had given her something to depend on .
Before she fainted, she tried hard to ascertain the worry in his eyes . Even though she could not find that hint of worry anymore when she stared at him, she could see that Lu Boyan really wanted to keep her company .
The nurse handed her a cup of warm water and a medicine sachet . She said, "It's fast acting pain reliever . "
There were five or six pills . The biggest was about the size of a thumb and the smallest about the size of a grain of rice . They were all white . The smell of medicine wafted out the moment the package was opened . Su Jianan glared at them and curled into her blankets .
She was not afraid of heaven or earth, or gangsters . But she was afraid of bitterness . That was why the entire family would become chaotic when she fell ill as a child . Her mother, Su Yicheng and all the helpers in the house would try all the tricks up their sleeves to coax her to eat her medicine . But she always found a way to hide away . And if she could not hide, she would run away . If she got caught, she would hug Su Yicheng and cry since he doted on her and would not force her .
However, Lu Boyan . . . did not seem as easy to convince as Su Yicheng . . .
Su Jianan wanted to close her eyes and pretend to faint .
