Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Xuecheng wrapped his arms around Su Wan’s waist. He lowered his head, and a faint male scent brushed against the tip of Su Wan’s ear, tickling her slightly.
Normally, if Jiang Xuecheng was like this, Su Wan would definitely be shy.
But at this moment, Su Wan did not feel the slightest bit of fear. Instead, she was stunned by Jiang Xuecheng’s words!
“Are, are you sure?”
What was going on?!
Jiang Xuecheng actually took the initiative to ask her if she wanted to adopt a child!
If she was not mistaken, it was about the glutinous rice ball lying in the ward?!
When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan’s shocked look, he mistakenly thought that Su Wan was unhappy.
The smile on the corner of Jiang Xuecheng’s lips froze, but he did not think too much about it. After all, most people would definitely be more willing to raise a child of their own.
In fact, he was the same.
However, the first time he saw the child, he felt an indescribable palpitation, and his heart ached uncontrollably.
“If you don’t want to, that’s fine too.”
Jiang Xuecheng would not make things difficult for Su Wan on such a matter. He was the one who made the request first, and not everyone could accept it.
Jiang Xuecheng could understand Su Wan’s choice.
The man’s low voice brushed past her ear. It was like a cello, very pleasant to the ear. However, at this moment, there was an indescribable sense of disappointment.
Su Wan burst out laughing.
“Did I say no? I just felt that this news was too shocking for me, so I can’t digest it for the time being.”
Jiang Xuecheng was stunned when he heard this. Obviously, he did not expect Su Wan to think like this.
Was it because she was too shocked that she did not know how to answer for the time being?!
Jiang Xuecheng could not hide the excitement in his heart. He could not help but hug Su Wan even tighter.
“Then what do you mean?”
Su Wan smiled faintly at Jiang Xuecheng. She broke free from Jiang Xuecheng’s embrace and looked at Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes very seriously.
“Xuecheng, can you tell me why you want to adopt that child?”
Before Jiang Xuecheng could speak, Su Wan suddenly stretched out a slender finger and pressed it against his thin lips.
“Did you… did you find out something? I remember you told me before that people who are infected with CHK Virus No.3 are not suitable to have children. Then… is this virus of mine impossible to get rid of for the rest of my life?”
“Or, even if I get rid of this virus, will my body not allow me to be a mother again?”
As Su Wan spoke, her expression could not help but become gloomy.
In fact, Su Wan’s guess was not groundless.
After all, she had been with Jiang Xuecheng day and night, and she knew Jiang Xuecheng’s personality very well. This man was definitely not the kind of person who liked to be close to children. Why would he suddenly want to adopt a baby?
Unless… unless they could no longer have a child in the future.
This was the most reasonable and terrifying answer.
When Jiang Xuecheng heard Su Wan’s words, a trace of helplessness flashed across his phoenix-like eyes.
What should he say?
He did not expect this little woman’s imagination to be so strong. She actually thought that she was completely unable to give birth…
After Jiang Xuecheng was speechless, he could not help but reach out a finger and fondly scratch Su Wan’s nose bridge.
“Wan Wan, what are you thinking about? I want to adopt this child because he’s too pitiful. Plus, he looks good, so I want to adopt him. If you don’t want to, I won’t force you.”
Jiang Xuecheng paused, and his expression became gentler.
“It’s definitely not what you think. Also, I’ve found the solution for the CHK Virus No.3 on you. After a while, I’ll remove this time bomb for you.”
“Really… really?”
Su Wan was caught off guard when she heard the news. Her heart seemed to have been hit by something. It bloomed with unspeakable joy, which made Su Wan stutter.
“The virus on my body can be cured?”
Seeing Su Wan’s beaming face, Jiang Xuecheng could not help but be infected by the intense joy on her face.
“Of course it’s true. How could I lie to you?”
“That’s great! That’s great!”
Su Wan’s eyes were burning. She hugged Jiang Xuecheng and walked around happily. She almost had the urge to cry!
God knows how afraid she was that she would die one day. She wanted to live. She wanted to live well with Jiang Xuecheng.
They were still so young. They would definitely have an incomparably bright future.
God had given her hope again. How wonderful was this feeling!
When Jiang Xuecheng saw how excited Su Wan was, he was also happy for her.
He reached out his hand and put his arm around Su Wan’s neck in a domineering and not gentle manner. He sniffed Su Wan’s thick black hair and was intoxicated by the fresh fragrance of her hair.
He would never tell Su Wan how risky the operation to cure the CHK Virus No.3 was.
Su Wan had suffered enough injuries. Jiang Xuecheng wanted to shoulder all the suffering on his own and protect his beloved for the rest of his life.
All his efforts were for this girl in front of him to smile.
She was so bright and beautiful. Even if there were hundreds of beauties in the world, they could not compare to the slight curve of her lips.
Su Wan was usually considered a reserved person. It was rare for her to be so excited.
Therefore, after hugging Jiang Xuecheng and jumping around for a long time, Su Wan finally realized how “wild” she was just now!
This was a hospital room!
Su Wan touched her nose in embarrassment. She tilted her head and suddenly saw the sickly little thing on the sickbed.
The figure of the baby had not grown at all. At this moment, he was sleeping with his eyes closed, as if he was not disturbed by the noise Su Wan had made just now.
It was obvious that this child was born with a deficiency.
Su Wan’s slender willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a faint trace of heartache appeared in her almond-shaped eyes.
Compared to Jiang Xuecheng, Su Wan had always liked children.
Well, of course, there was a prerequisite!
Su Wan only liked cute and well-behaved children, and she respectfully declined the naughty kind who were both excellent and noisy.
“Does this child have parents?”
Su Wan sat down next to the little boy. She could not help but reach out her hand and carefully poked the boy’s somewhat thin face.
If there were parents, unless they were especially inhumane, it would not make sense for them to adopt.
When Jiang Xuecheng heard Su Wan’s question, he knew that Su Wan’s attitude had softened.
He sat down next to Su Wan and methodically recounted the life of this poor child.
Su Wan was angry and heartbroken when she heard this. After a moment of silence, she immediately nodded and agreed to Jiang Xuecheng’s suggestion.
This child was too pitiful. He had just been born and lost his parents. Moreover, his parents were not married because of love. It was really…
As expected, happiness was always similar, but misfortune was also different from one another.
Su Wan’s almond-shaped eyes curved as she caressed the corner of the child’s eyes with infinite love.
“The child is so young. Since we want to adopt him… Xuecheng, shall we give him a name first?”
