Chapter 3: She's Back!

last update Last Updated: 2021-04-05 19:05:15

Yuan Rui was in the middle of his rehabilitation when the door opened silently. He didn't notice her enter neither did Huang Yunshen nor did Doctor Liu notice her enter. She sat down on his wheelchair and watched Yuan Rui try to move his legs with great difficulty. Sweat beads were running down his chest and forehead and his hair was soaked.

The grey shirt he was wearing was soaked as well. He continued his rehabilitation with the Doctor while Huang Yunshen sat closer to him keeping a close eye on him in case there was an accident.

"Alright young master Zhao, that's it for today," Doctor Liu said and helped him to the bench along with Huang Yunshen. He was handed a bottle of water and drank half of it. He wiped down the sweat and after resting he asked, "Doctor Liu, can you help me go through the exercises again please?"

Doctor Liu looked at him with a gentle smile, "You will strain yourself if you go through the exercises again young master Zhao. You know that we can only do it once a week and since you haven't been here for the past three months, doing it again will hurt you instead of make things better."

Yuan Rui protested, "I know but I want to get better soon."

"Listen to the doctor," came from behind them all. Huang Yunshen stood up in fright and so did the doctor. They saw a woman sitting in Yuan Rui's wheelchair with her legs swinging over the right armrest. She had her eyes set on the handsome sweaty man.

She smiled at him and waved, "Yo!" she greeted him. Yuan Rui's mouth twitched, "You're here?" He was unknowingly happy inside and felt relieved but why would he show it? He had been worrying about her the whole morning and just like before, she appeared unannounced.

Huang Yunshen looked between his friend and the attractive woman, "Buddy? You know her?" he asked confused since it was the first time he saw this woman. "Oh, her?" he asked as he continued to wipe away his sweat.

She pursed her lips as she watched him. The doctor was looking at her oddly but remained silent. She'd seen the young woman before but couldn't remember where and when.

Huang Yunshen nodded his head, Yuan Rui was unnecessarily dragging out his answer. Yuan Rui drank the rest of his water then looked at her, "Why are you in my chair?" he asked her.

"You aren't using it," she answered him simply. He mentally threw the bottle beside him at her, "Bring it here since you don't want me to continue."

She happily got up, walked around the chair and pushed it forward, stopping in front of him. Huang Yunshen, helped him onto his chair and before he could the young woman turned the chair and pushed him out.

They arrived in Yuan Rui's room where she pushed him into the bathroom made specifically for the handicapped. Yuan Rui looked at her since she wasn't leaving and asked, "Do you want to shower with me?"

She smiled at him, "That's very tempting but who knows what'll happen if we do?" With that, she turned on her heels and walked out closing the door behind her.

Yuan Rui shook his head in defeat, he didn't know where she came from but it was better to have her around him since the tension was always so heavy. She eased it away naturally with just her appearance making him forget everything.

She walked out of the bathroom and saw that Huang Yunshen was looking at her trying to find any clue on who she was, he also thought that she might be a fan of Yuan Rui but she wasn't acting like one.

She sat on his bed that was made up and made herself comfortable, closing her eyes as well. "Who are you?" he asked her but there was no response from her. She opened her eyes and looked at him then closed it again.

"I asked you who are you!" he yelled. A nurse came in after she heard him yell and looked at the woman lying on the bed. She recognised her immediately as one of the patients who was released today and asked, "Why are you here?"

"You know her?" Huang Yunshen asked the nurse. She nodded but this woman's name was something she couldn't remember. "Yes young master Huang, she's a patient of this hospital that was released two hours ago," she answered.

That didn't answer his question. He looked at the woman on the bed and the nurse, "What is her name and why is she bothering Yuan Rui?"

"I-I don't know why she is here but I will remove her immediately," she said and went up to the bed. She grabbed the woman by her hair and pulled her up and off the bed making her fall on the tiled floor and hit her head.

Huang Yunshen's eyes widened and he immediately went to help her up when he saw she hit her head. When he picked her up he saw that her head was bleeding and winced. He glared at the nurse who was the cause of it and yelled, "Who told you to be so rough huh? Have you no sense? Aren't you a nurse? How can you hurt her?"

Yuan Rui just finished his shower and was about to get dressed when he heard Huang Yunshen's yell. He covered his bottom half and came out of the bathroom. He saw the woman in Huang Yunshen's arms head hanging limply and yelled, "What the hell did you two do to her?"

Huang Yunshen was taken aback by his outburst and looked back. He was already beside them and took her from Huang Yunshen, holding her in his arms, he examined her and glared at the nurse, "Go get someone to help her and don't show your face before me or I'll skin you alive!"

He placed her on the bed. While the doctor was examining her, he went back into the bathroom and quickly got dressed. His face had dark lines on it when he came out. He saw that the woman was bandaged up and laying soundly on the bed.

He looked at the doctor and asked, "Doctor, will she be alright?"

Doctor Kwon nodded his head, "Yes she will be. The bleeding was due to her landing on a wound that was recently stitched up and reopened. We've re-stitched her and taken care of the wound."

Yuan Rui nodded his head. Wheeling up to the bed he reached for her hand and caressed it with his thumb. Huang Yunshen narrowed his eyes on the tenderness his friend was giving the unknown woman but said nothing.

"Can I see her chart real quick doctor?" he asked. Doctor Kwon who was his doctor nodded and handed it to him. Yuan Rui scanned it quickly memorizing all of her details they noted down. He frowned when he saw that she had no name beside the name entry.

He looked up at Dr Kwon and asked, "Why isn't her name filled in?"

"She never gave us her name. She was brought in a week ago by a traffic officer who said she passed out on the sidewalk during traffic hours, there was no identification card on her and she isn't in the database. There wasn't anyone to pay her bill and so she was discharged due to insufficient funds and because of this, the nurses who were supposed to treat her just left her be after the first day. We've contacted the police but even they won't look up if she's in the criminal base and they aren't willing to pay. She was supposed to leave the hospital on the second day after she woke up but kept sneaking into the hospital," he said.

"How can you people be so irresponsible? Aren't you all doctors? Is money all you care for? What about that nurse who injured her? Where is she?" he asked furiously slamming the chart on the sliding table.

Dr Kwon sighed, "Sir, this is Hospital-A, only made to take care of high profile clients, not for those who can't afford it."

Yuan Rui looked at him coldly. Turning to Huang Yunshen, he said, "Settle her bill and make sure she gets treated properly." After a moment he added, "Everyone get out!"

Huang Yunshen looked at Yuan Rui speechless. He lost his words and did what his friend asked, making sure that the bill was settled and to search up who she was also making sure that a capable doctor would take care of her.

Meanwhile, in room B201, Yuan Rui caressed her cheek with his finger. The bed was lowered to suit his needs. The doctor Huang Yunshen got for her came in and attended to her wounds, gave her an injection and told him to make sure she drinks water when she wakes up.

    When they were alone, he got onto the bed moving her to the side gently. Resting her on his arm. He smiled gently and pulled out his phone, taking a proper picture of her this time. Another picture was taken of the two of them together by him and when he looked at it, he saw that her eyes were open.He looked down at her. Meeting eyes with hers, he looked into her beautiful cerulean blue eyes, "You're awake wife?"She nodded her head slowly but winced in pain. She was about to touch her head but didn't because Yuan Rui caught her arm, "Don't, you hit your head against the floor because of that stupid nurse, I got you stitched up again and you have to drink water so drink it before you make me mad," he said warningly.She stared at him for a moment then slowly got up and had the glass of water. She settled in comfortably beside him and wrapped her arms around his waist. Yuan Rui dug his nose into her hair and inhaled. There was no distinct shampoo smell but more

But there is something you can do for me that I will appreciate dearly." "What is that?" she asked, continuing to wipe away his tears.

Every time Jiang Hui Yin or his cousin visited him, he'd pretend everything was normal, but he longed to see his wife Zhi Rou. During the last night at the hospital, he went over all the information Huang Yunshen gathered for him on her for the tenth time. He saw also that she had no phone number registered to her and the number she left was of her neighbour, an elderly man. Picking up his phone, he called his attendant, Qing Shan to visit him. Qing Shan arrived at the hospital, "I want you to get the guest room in my Shenmin Guodu residential complex ready for Miss Liu to stay in. After my release tomorrow, we'll go pick her up then go shopping for her essentials." Qing Shan looked at his you

    Qing Shan excused himself because he still had some work left to do and the bodyguard Miki stationed himself outside Zhi Rou’s apartment. Zhi Rou came out of her bedroom wearing a red top that cupped her breasts perfectly. Towards the waist, it blew out a bit and when she twirled in it, it flared up. She paired the red top with black shorts that hugged her butt and wore black gladiator sandals. She smiled at him as she tied her hair up in a ponytail, "Ready for breakfast?" He looked at her from where he sat. "Can you cook?" He asked sceptically. She flung her hair to the back and nodded, "Sit tight handsome, and I'll be done in a few." Zhi Rou walked past him into the open kitchen. Yuan Rui watched her walk over and couldn't help but think her butt that was out was c

    Yuan Rui gazed around the living room and saw that there were paintings resting against the walls. He wheeled over and looked at them. Picking up the first painting, he saw that it depicted beautiful scenery. The nearer clouds in the sky were dark grey with a purple undertone, and the ones in the distance were lighter, changing from blue to purple. The sky was lit up by bright purple lightning, with some streaks bright white streaks enhancing the effect. On the ground were pinkish-purple roses with dark green leaves and stems. The ground itself was hidden by the flowers and grass that grew but there was a clear path down the middle as though one had walked through it paring the roses. The feeling Yuan Rui got from this painting alone was ethereal. It gave off a surreal feeling but made him wonder why the beauty captured in this painting was angry. The anger c

Yuan Rui put on a black surgical mask before they went into ShanMall where they needed to purchase her essentials. Zhi Rou was against buying clothes for herself but Yuan Rui made up an excuse of "You will be a rich man's wife soon, so you need to dress well." Rolling her eyes, Zhi Rou gave up but told him that she didn't want clothes that were too expensive. She pushed him through the busy mall. They were drawing attention from everyone. They looked like a happy couple, a wife pushing her husband in fact. Walking into a jewellery store Yuan Rui said, "You aren't allowed to spend less than 10,000 Yuan in this shop. Your jewellery limit is 30,000 Yuan."

    Yuan Rui smirked. He pulled out his phone and texted a list to Qing Shan of what Zhi Rou needed to get. Yuan Rui also told Qing Shan to print it and bring it to him and to help carry Zhi Rou’s things around. Qing Shan was done with all his work and was currently looking through video footage that he found at a store near where his young master's accident had taken place. He had contacted all the stores that were in the area, but they had excuses saying that their cameras were broken or there was no footage at all. Only this store had no excuse and let him go through it. He paid the shop owner to keep quiet about this and took the footage with him. Zhi Rou pushed Yuan Rui into one of China's leading designing brands that his sister owned, Mian Bag's, a branch of her Zhao Mian legacy. Thanks to the mask he wa

    After Qing Shan left, they went into a perfume shop where Zhi Rou tested over fifty fragrances and finally picked one named “Moss.” She looked at Yuan Rui, "Honey, how about this, how does it smell to you?" she asked as she dabbed it onto her neck. Yuan Rui felt warm and fuzzy hearing Zhi Rou call him honey, especially the way she said it so naturally. She sat down on him and stretched her neck out. He hesitated for a moment then slowly lowered his head down to her neck. Smelling her neck, Yuan Rui accidentally brushed his nose against Zhi Rou’s skin. She gasped and froze for a moment. She raised her head, slowly coming face to face with Yuan Rui. His eyes met hers, sending him into a tranquil note. It felt as though he was swimming in an ocean looking into her eyes

Jiang Hui Yin walked into the house from the back looking for something to eat when she heard the sound of a gun going off. She went to the kitchen first to make herself something to eat, but then she heard a laugh that she hadn’t heard in a long time. Her heart skipped a beat, recalling how they used to spend time together and loved each other. Thinking about it, she wondered when she stopped loving him. She took in a deep breath and went to him with a sandwich for him, too. Yuan Rui immediately looked at her, shocked when

Looking into his eyes she said, “I knew you would come for us.”He stared at her momentarily, then looked down at the baby boy in her arms. He took the child from her, confusing her.
