Chapter 400: Yaoyao


    She waited for a few seconds before hearing his hum in acknowledgement. Stealing a look at Lu


    Xingzhi, Jiang Yao turned back and prepared her bed for the night.


    "Call Weiqi and ask him to send you home. The bed here is not clean, who knows how many people


    have slept on it?" He knew his wife very well, knowing that she was slightly germophobic. It was


    actually amon trait between doctors, or more particrly, the older doctors.


    "I am not as bad as you think," Jiang Yao muttered. "Under circumstances and conditions that allow it, I


    would be as picky as I can. But, if the circumstance does not allow for it, I can be very flexible and


    easygoing."


    She paused, seeing Lu Xingzhi''s frigid expression, sheughed andy down on her bed while


    assuring him that she was perfectly okay being here.


    "You need constant care here. I did not tell your parents about your injury yet, so I must be here to


    make sure that you make a speedy recovery. Zhou Weiqi actually offered to do shifts with me, but I


    cannot be rest assured being away from you," Jiang Yao exined.


    She looked around and found the light switch. Turning it off, she said, "Close your eyes and go to


    sleep."


    With a click, the lights were switched off, plunging the entire room into darkness.


    The hospital was quiet, especially the intensive care ward, which received less foot traffic.


    Jiang Yao felt that her hearing had been improving. Once the room became silent, she could clearly


    hear Lu Xingzhi''s breathing.


    Listening to his breathing told her that he was not asleep.


    Amidst the silence, nobody said a word. Jiang Yao assumed that Lu Xingzhi was trying to go to sleep,


    just like she was.


    The gentle autumn winds were blowing outside. The moon, with its seductive curves, looked down with


    its bright light, like a yful child searching for her seashells by the beach. Jiang Yao turned her body


    away from the window and looked at the patient in the room.


    Suddenly, he called out.


    "Yaoyao."


    Hearing that, she was stunned.


    Lu Xingzhi always called her by her full name Jiang Yao. Likewise, she would do the same to Lu


    Xingzhi as well.


    She did not feel strange that a pair of a married couples would address each other by their names in its


    entirety. Maybe they were used to it, maybe her name was too short a character shorter than regr


    names. It was perfectly normal to call her with her family name attached.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Yaoyao was her nickname at home. Everyone in her family would call her by that name. However, it


    was her first time hearing Lu Xingzhi say it. She did not expect it but found it to be adorable.


    The same two words felt different uttered by him.


    Maybe because he had a nice voice, or maybe because he was Lu Xingzhi.
