Sheng Yize frowned . “Rhinitis again?”
“Nah, just a sneeze . ” An Xiaxia didn’t think much of it .
Sheng Yize, however, went to summon the doctor as if he was confronted with some terminal disease . While An Xiaxia was being examined, he waited right outside the door, which turned the heads of quite a few of the passing nurses .
The doctor teased while checking her, “You two are such a loving couple . ”
“Um, we’re alright . ” An Xiaxia smiled . “He’s just being fussy . ”
“Hoho, I’m afraid you don’t appreciate your caring husband enough . ” The doctor smiled amiably . “Take your rhinitis for example . I presume that you don’t think it’s that big a deal, correct? Most people think the same way and live with the relapses over and over again . Am I right to assume that you’ve never been properly treated for it?”
An Xiaxia smiled awkwardly . The doctor was right . Her rhinitis would recur for a period of time every year like a common cold and she would keep it at bay by taking some medicine .

“After you were hospitalized, your husband looked through all your test results . I think he knows your health condition better than yourself,” said the doctor kindly . “It’s very rare to meet someone who cherishes you so much . ”
An Xiaxia was baffled . She hadn’t known anything about what the doctor had just said .
Was Sheng Yize that nice to her? An Xiaxia stared blankly into the air .
After the examination, the doctor prescribed some medicine and let Sheng Yize fetch it .
Sheng Yize prepared everything himself . After everything was set, he gave the medicine to the nurse, who then fed it to An Xiaxia .
Despite how bitter the medicine was, An Xiaxia gulped it down in one go . “Where did he go?”
“I think Young Master Ze went to take a shower,” replied the nurse .

An Xiaxia panicked a little and covered her head with the duvet .
She was still ill! How could Sheng Yize… he was so horny!
Shameless!
When Sheng Yize entered the ward again, he was welcomed by a pillow An Xiaxia swung at him . The little woman yelled at the top of her lungs, “Forget it! I’m not sleeping with you!”
Sheng Yize was speechless . “I’m not sleeping with you even if you want me to . ”
What? An Xiaxia gingerly stuck her head out from under the duvet and blinked at Sheng Yize .
His short black hair was still damp and she could faintly make out the smell of soap . He seemed to have washed himself quite thoroughly .

“Why did you take a shower at this hour…” An Xiaxia was confused .
“Don’t you have rhinitis? The cigarette smell on me will irritate your nose,” said Sheng Yize casually . He then sat down on the sofa to read a newspaper . “Go to bed . You’re coming back with me to the Sheng family home tomorrow . ”
An Xiaxia curled up under the duvet, stealing glances at him .
She drooled over the fair and slender fingers holding the newspaper — she had always had a thing for pretty hands . His black eyelashes were very long and when he batted them, it reminded her of little black fans…
“Enjoying the view?” he said all of a sudden .
An Xiaxia jumped . “Weren’t you reading the newspaper?”
Sheng Yize looked up and gave her an “are you an idiot” look . “You do realize that I can see out of the corner of my eyes?”
Caught in the act, An Xiaxia jabbed her fingertips together, guilty as charged .
She suddenly recalled the cigarette smell on him just then…
“Are you still smoking now? I thought you quit . ” She pretended to strike up a casual conversation .
Sheng Yize froze for two seconds before giving her a self-mocking smile . “I’m too addicted to quit now . ”
After she left, he had become completely addicted to smoking and would finish a few packs in a day .
An Xiaxia’s heart raced . Could Sheng Yize be the person that had saved her?
“Have you… looked for me secretly all these years? I’m just asking!”
