Chapter 964 - 194: Proposal 10
After Si Nan finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand, hooked the back of her neck from behind and drew her toward him, and under Tang Yige’s startled gaze, sealed her lips with his.
Feeling his soft, wet tongue gently brush across her lips, Tang Yige only felt a numb shiver shoot up from the base of her spine.
He paused on her lips for a moment, then Si Nan calmly withdrew, looking at Tang Yige’s flushed face with a faint smile. "Tastes pretty good. Mm, I mean the soup."
Tang Yige, "..."
So, not only has he learned how to sweet-talk now, he’s also learned how to be bad, right?
Tang Yige pressed her lips together, lowered her head, eating while muttering under her breath, "You’re getting worse and worse."
"Mm, I’m only bad to you."
Si Nan picked up a piece of greens and put it into her bowl, his voice smooth and gentle.
Tang Yige’s ears burned. "Geng Yi bought way too much, I can’t finish it. You help me eat some. Otherwise it’ll be such a waste."
She knew he hadn’t eaten either, staying with her to take care of her.
So just now she’d told him to ask Geng Yi to buy more.
Si Nan gazed tenderly at her, a warm sigh blooming in his heart. How could he not know what she was thinking?
Leaning over, Si Nan kissed the top of her lowered head. "You eat first. I’ll eat when you’re done."
Tang Yige still kept her head down,伸出一只手推他,"一起吃."
The smile at the corner of Si Nan’s lips was impossible to hold back; he was too happy.
His mellow voice said, "Okay. We’ll eat together."
Hearing that, the corner of Tang Yige’s mouth twitched.
...
Tang Yige stayed in the hospital for one night. Because she kept worrying about the little one at home, she insisted on being discharged the next afternoon.
There wasn’t really anything wrong with her body; it was just general weakness caused by premature aging of her organs. Staying in the hospital didn’t do much, she could just as well recuperate at home.
Back at Jinxiu Huadu, Tang Yige hadn’t expected to be greeted by an enthusiastic hug from Little Fatty.
Tang Yige was so flustered by the unexpected affection she almost couldn’t believe it.
You know,
This was the first time Little Fatty had主动 hugged her since he’d found out she was his birth mom.
Tang Yige picked up Little Rui and walked to the sofa to sit down, setting him on her lap, joy flickering in her beautiful eyes as she looked at him. "Did you miss me?"
Rong Rui stared at her somewhat pale face, his big clear eyes full of worry. "Sister Zhang already told me, you were hospitalized yesterday."
"..." Tang Yige stared at him. "I’m fine, just felt a tiny bit unwell."
Rong Rui straightened his chubby little body on Tang Yige’s lap, his two fleshy arms wrapping around Yige’s neck. His soft little mouth kissed Yige on the cheek, his dark, bright eyes fixed on her in concern. "I’m sorry."
Tang Yige, "..."
Rong Rui pursed his pink little mouth. "I know everything now. It’s because of me."
Huh?
Tang Yige frowned and looked questioningly at Zhang Lan, who was also standing to the side watching her with concern.
Zhang Lan shook her head at her.
Tang Yige blinked and looked back at Rong Rui. "Little Rui, Mommy’s health is bad, but it’s not because of you, okay?"
"I know you care a lot about me and you dote on me. That’s why even now, you’re still afraid I’ll blame myself and can’t bear to blame me." Rong Rui said with a serious little face.
"...No, baby, Mommy..."
"Alright, don’t force yourself to say it." Rong Rui hugged her, his little head leaning on her shoulder. "Actually I’ve long accepted that you’re my mom. Before, I deliberately made you mad and went against you, that was my fault. I was too petty. Anyway you were going to spoil me, so I didn’t think about your feelings, and that’s what made you so depressed you got sick."
whaaaat?
Tang Yige licked her lower lip, held the little guy’s small shoulders and pushed him slightly away from her, lowering her head to meet his big eyes brimming with guilt and self-blame. "Baby, Mommy really didn’t get sick because of you. If you don’t believe me, ask Daddy."
Rong Rui frowned, glanced at Si Nan, and sighed. "I know you both love me very much. Because I’m your son, you both can’t bear to reprimand me. I know all of that."
He paused, then solemnly placed his two chubby little paws on Yige’s shoulders, his jet-black eyes staring at Yige as he said, "Actually I also really like you being my mom and dad. So from now on I won’t be willful anymore, I’ll obediently listen to Mom and Dad, and I won’t make you angry again."
By the time the little guy finished, a layer of fearful tears had welled up in his big, dark eyes.
Tang Yige’s heart ached terribly. She hugged Little Rui and showered him with kisses. "Baby, Mommy really didn’t get sick because of you. Don’t blame yourself anymore, okay? It breaks Mommy’s heart."
"Mom."
Rong Rui tightened his arms around Yige’s neck, calling her hoarsely, "I was worried to death. Luckily you came back."
That one soft, milky "Mom" from him melted Tang Yige’s heart completely. She petted his little head dotingly. "Mommy loves you, baby."
"I love you too," Rong Rui said.
Tang Yige’s eyes turned red.
After all, she’d thought it would be a long, hard road before the little guy would willingly call her "Mom."
She hadn’t expected...
Tang Yige was both moved and happy, and couldn’t help planting another flurry of kisses on Little Rui’s chubby cheeks.
Watching mother and son hug each other and kiss again and again, Si Nan’s clear, gentle eyes overflowed with warm light.
In this life, to have such a wife and son—enough!
...
On the third day after Tang Yige’s discharge, Zhang Xu brought Geng Yi over to pay a visit to Zhang Lan.
Zhang Lan was quite stunned to learn that Zhang Xu and Geng Yi were together.
Fortunately, Geng Yi had already left a very good impression on Zhang Lan from when he’d helped Si Nan with the renovation and move.
So Zhang Lan was very satisfied with this future son-in-law Geng Yi, so pleased that she couldn’t even close her mouth when she smiled.
The day after Geng Yi came to call on Zhang Lan, Tang Yige received a phone call from Tang Yuwen, telling her that he had already been discharged from the hospital. He didn’t say anything else and just hung up.
Tang Yige held the phone, dazed for a while.
Ever since the day Tang Yuwen had threatened her with his own life, Tang Yige hadn’t gone to him on her own again, but she stayed in touch with the hospital to keep track of his condition.
And the news from the hospital was always that Tang Yuwen was very calm and very cooperative with the doctors’ treatment, and hadn’t made any more trouble.
Tang Yuwen being like this was naturally what Tang Yige was happy to see.
It’s just...she still hadn’t found a suitable opportunity to bring up Tang Ruan with Si Nan...
Tang Yuwen wanted so badly to save Tang Ruan. If Tang Ruan still hadn’t been safely brought back...would he really give up so easily?
In the blink of an eye another week passed.
When Tang Yige went to the hospital to visit Zhou Xueran that day, she spoke with her for half an hour. Just as she was about to leave, she miraculously saw Zhou Xueran’s fingers move.
Tang Yige was stunned, unable to believe it, staring fixedly at Zhou Xueran’s hand.
When she saw Zhou Xueran’s fingers twitch again, Tang Yige clapped a hand over her mouth and took several quick breaths, barely suppressing the surge of joy in her chest.
She hurried to inform the doctor of the situation.
When the doctor heard, he was overjoyed as well, and quickly led several medical staff to the ICU to take a look.
Tang Yige stood at the glass window of the ICU, watching the doctor busy inside examining Zhou Xueran, her eyes reddening again and again.
After about half an hour,
The attending physician came out of the ICU with the medical staff.
Tang Yige hurried over, looking at the attending doctor with hopeful eyes. "Is my mom about to wake up?"
The attending doctor removed his mask and smiled at Yige. "Good news."
Tang Yige’s heart clenched tight, tears gathering at the corners of her eyes as she stared at the attending doctor, unable to speak.
"Your mother’s vital signs have clearly strengthened. She has a desire to survive. As long as she has the will to live, then there’s hope for everything," the attending doctor said.
"...Doctor, I...I don’t really understand." Tang Yige looked bashful like a little girl, but she was urgently hoping the doctor would explain more clearly, more explicitly.
The doctor looked at Yige and sighed with feeling. "Miss Tang, you truly are a filial daughter. Not only do you come here every day to visit your mother, you’ve also never once given up on treating her. I think it’s probably your filial devotion that moved her, that made your mother reignite her desire to live."
Tang Yige reached up to wipe the corner of her eye. "Doctor, do you mean my mom has already passed the critical stage?"
The doctor paused, then said, "That still needs to be observed. But I believe your mother will definitely pull through. Don’t worry, Miss Tang."
Still needs to be observed?
A shadow of disappointment swept through Tang Yige’s eyes.
Seeing this, the doctor couldn’t quite bear it and said, "Miss Tang, your mother has already gotten through the most dangerous time. You need to have confidence in her. Hang in there just a bit longer, everything will be alright."
That’s true.
The most dangerous, hardest time had already passed; the future could only get better.
Tang Yige silently told herself the same thing in her heart. She took a deep breath, lifted her head, and was just about to say something to the doctor when her gaze swept past him and suddenly froze on the person who had appeared behind him...
