Xiao Wenjing, seeing her so frightened, didn’t know how to use the call button by the bedside and just rushed out to find the doctor. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒·𝗇𝗲𝘁 Dai Zihan quickly helped Xiao Li lie down... Outside the ward, Xiao Wenjing rushed out and saw Qin Xiao standing at the door, exclaiming, "Xiao Li is not well." As soon as she spoke, Qin Xiao’s figure had already disappeared. Qin Xiao charged into the ward and immediately pressed the call button, "Nini, how are you?" Seeing Qin Xiao looking so anxious, Xiao Li felt her chest hurt even more. This time the doctor came quickly because Xiao Li had just woken up today, which made her prone to sudden conditions, so as soon as they called for someone, they arrived immediately. The doctor and nurses rushed in and performed emergency treatment on Xiao Li. Qin Xiao and the others could only wait outside the ward. After a while, the ward door finally opened, and the doctor came out saying, "Sir, besides the brain damage from the previous accident, the lady’s heart was also ruptured. Although she was saved at the time, just like there are aftereffects to the brain, there are also issues with the heart. The lady just experienced an arrhythmia and pain. My suggestion is to do a comprehensive examination and check all parts of the body. Also, given her condition, it’s best not to agitate her and to keep her in a calm state of mind, since she has just woken up!" Qin Xiao nodded, "Arrange the examination then!" After the doctor left, the three of them went in to see Xiao Li, who had already fallen asleep again. Dai Zihan whispered, "Qin Xiao, maybe we talked too much just now, and Xiao Li couldn’t handle it all at once... Sorry! We didn’t manage the situation well." Qin Xiao shook his head, "It’s not your fault. It’s getting late, you should head back first!" Dai Zihan said, "Okay, we’ll come to see Xiao Li again tomorrow." Qin Xiao shook his head, "Let’s give her some time to recover first!" Dai Zihan and Xiao Wenjing understood the implied meaning of his words and left silently. The next day, being New Year’s Eve, the hospital also had a touch of red. When Xiao Li sat in the wheelchair for her check-up and saw the door couplets, she asked, "Is it New Year’s Eve today?" Qin Xiao nodded, "Yes." Knowing that she was married to Qin Xiao and had children, and seeing those intimate moments between them. Xiao Li no longer felt repelled by Qin Xiao, or rather said that her body subconsciously never rejected Qin Xiao. In the CT room, when Qin Xiao lifted Xiao Li, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Qin Xiao’s neck. This wasn’t the first time she’d done this today. For every examination, Xiao Li was held up and down from the wheelchair by Qin Xiao . This morning, when she was first lifted from the hospital bed, Xiao Li was momentarily stunned by her subconscious action, but now, having done it many times, she only felt a sense of familiarity and nothing else. After a series of tests, Xiao Li obediently lay on the hospital bed, staring out the window, lost in thought. Qin Xiao was outside the ward listening to the doctor explain Xiao Li’s condition. "Sir, I’ve explained your wife’s situation to you. Given her heart condition, it’s best to keep calm and avoid too much agitation." Qin Xiao nodded in understanding. After the doctor left, Qin Xiao entered the ward and saw Xiao Li standing by the window, "Why did you get out of bed?" Xiao Li turned around, "It’s so lively outside, all red and festive. It’s New Year’s Eve today, and we’re all in the hospital—what about the kids?" For some reason, just seeing the joy outside, Xiao Li thought of the kids she saw yesterday. Qin Xiao, hearing her mention the children, said, "Nini, given your current condition, you still can’t be discharged. If you’re up for it, I can have the kids come to the ward, and we’ll have the New Year’s Eve dinner together, how about that?" Xiao Li thought for a moment and shook her head. Seeing her shake her head, Qin Xiao felt a bit helpless—the kids would be disappointed. Even though he knew they would be disappointed, Qin Xiao wouldn’t force Xiao Li if she wasn’t willing. To him, Xiao Li was always the top priority. "Qin Xiao, I can’t be discharged yet, but can I leave the hospital for a while, just to go out for a meal, and then come back? Having the New Year’s Eve dinner in the hospital and bringing the kids here isn’t ideal." Qin Xiao didn’t expect Xiao Li to want to go out to have dinner with the kids and didn’t reply immediately. He first took out his phone, made a call, asked a few questions, and then said, "Sure, we can go out for a meal and then come back." Xiao Li smiled, "Okay." This was the first time Xiao Li smiled since waking up, and Qin Xiao was a bit mesmerized by it. Even though they were going home for dinner, to ensure Xiao Li wasn’t away from the hospital for too long, Qin Xiao waited until it was almost mealtime to take Xiao Li out. From the ward to the car, Xiao Li was carried by Qin Xiao the whole way. As he carried her, a flash of memory suddenly appeared in her mind. It passed too quickly for Xiao Li to grasp it, but she felt like Qin Xiao had carried her along a long path before. After setting Xiao Li in the front passenger seat, Qin Xiao got into the car, fastened the seatbelts for both of them, and started the car. Without any memories, Xiao Li found the city she had lived in for so long to be incredibly unfamiliar. She seriously observed the scenery outside the window. Until she got tired, she suddenly remembered something, "Qin Xiao, when we have the New Year’s Eve dinner, is it just us and the kids, or are we having it with your family as well?" Qin Xiao, while checking the traffic, replied, "In previous years, the New Year’s Eve dinner was with the whole family. I know you can’t remember everyone now, and having dinner with my parents and brother and sister-in-law might make you uncomfortable, so today it’ll just be us and the kids." Xiao Li thought it over, "Isn’t that not right? Let’s do it like before! Everyone knows I’ve lost my memory, and if I act unusually, they shouldn’t be surprised!" Xiao Li just felt they shouldn’t dine separately, a voice in her heart told her to dine with the whole family. Qin Xiao turned to look at her, "Are you sure you won’t feel awkward eating together?" Xiao Li nodded, "Let’s do it together!" Qin Xiao called home and had them make arrangements. Watching Qin Xiao’s profile, Xiao Li thought he had such a nice temperament, going along with whatever she said. The car drove into the villa area and stopped in front of Qin’s parents’ villa. Qin Xiao got out of the car, ready to carry Xiao Li, but she quickly stopped him, "Isn’t this inappropriate? Everyone’s watching." As soon as she said it, Xiao Li felt the phrase was familiar, as if she’d said it before. Qin Xiao picked her up, "It’s okay, they’re used to it." Xiao Li was puzzled, wondering what "used to it" meant? Could it be that they often saw Qin Xiao carrying her? Once inside the house, Xiao Li noticed that no one seemed surprised to see Qin Xiao carrying her. Even the children didn’t ask. Everyone really was very accustomed to it! Qin Tan smiled and greeted Xiao Li, "Sister-in-law, I know you’ve lost your memory. Let me introduce myself! I’m Qin Tan, Qin Xiao’s elder brother, and this is your sister-in-law, He Jie."
