Chapter 42 It Won't Affect Your Married Life (1/2)
Reading Settings
Lin Han, worried that Huo Qizheng was too hot, touched his chest muscles and then casually lifted his blanket a little, revealing the bulge in his pants.
She was startled.
"You... Huo Qizheng, you're such a scoundrel! Why are you acting like this even when you're unconscious? You... you're being so unreserved."
After saying that, she patted his thigh with a hint of disgust.
Huo Qizheng: ...Please, you touched me first, I didn't do anything wrong, did I? Where can I go to reason with my wife who has wronged me?
Lin Han sat on the chair with a flushed face and a huff, completely forgetting that she was the one who started it all.
After the hospital staff finish their shift, the night shift nurses come to take over.
Lin Han asked, somewhat worried.
"Nurse, will my husband's injuries affect his life in the future?"
The nurse looked up at Lin Han meaningfully, then said with a smile.
"Don't listen to those people outside talking nonsense. Although Huo Tuan injured his back, his sexual function is not impaired and it will not affect your married life."
Lin Han was startled. "That's not what I meant. I was asking..."
The nurse interrupted her with an expression that said, "I've been there, I know."
"I understand. Don't be shy. With Huo Tuan's physique, he looks like he's in great shape. Just wait and enjoy the good life."
Lin Han was speechless and hung her head.
Forget it, it's already a misunderstanding. Explaining things will only make them worse, so let's not talk about it anymore.
"I'll head back now. Thank you for your help here."
After saying that, she slung her small bag over her shoulder and slipped away.
Huo Qizheng lay in bed, listening to his young wife worrying about his inability to perform and feeling somewhat eager to prove herself.
Once he wakes up, we can't let these ridiculous rumors about his incompetence continue, lest his young wife start to despise him.
When Lin Han left the hospital, she took a deep breath. The thought of spending every day with this man she didn't know very well made her a little nervous.
She walked slowly along the road back to Qin Shuman's house, and met Qin Shuman when she was almost home.
"Hanhan, I heard that Xiao Huo's surgery was very successful. I was planning to go see him after get off work, but Lao Gu gave orders not to let anyone visit him."
They said Xiao Huo hadn't recovered yet and we shouldn't disturb him, so we'll go to the hospital to see him after he wakes up.
You've had a tough time these past few days. I'll hurry home and cook you something nourishing.
Lin Han linked arms with Qin Shuman and walked home.
“Aunt Qin, I’ll take you there when Huo Qizheng wakes up. It’s right that Uncle doesn’t want anyone to visit him. Qizheng needs to rest now, and I don’t know anyone in the military. I can’t handle it alone.”
My uncle has relieved a lot of my burden.
Qin Shuman's cloth bag contained groceries she had just bought at the military service station. "Hanhan, we'll have hand-pulled noodles for dinner tonight. Auntie will make you several different kinds of sauce."
Lin Han sweetly agreed.
"Okay, I love Aunt Qin's cooking. I can eat a whole bowl of it."
Qin Shuman was happy and gave Lin Han a bag of edamame to peel and play with, while she rolled up her sleeves to knead dough.
"Hanhan, I'll make an egg sauce, a fatty pork and potato sauce, and a clam and scallion sauce. Is there anything else you'd like to eat?"
Lin Han noticed that the cucumbers and tomatoes in Qin Shuman's vegetable garden were growing well, so she suggested making a white sugar persimmon salad as well.
Qin Shuman saw that Lin Han wanted to help, but she couldn't do the chores in the kitchen, so she asked her to pick tomatoes.
