Chapter 483 Ning Yao felt heartbroken for scaring her son.
"Will it break?" Wen Tingye raised an eyebrow and looked at the little kitten in his hand, his eyes looking at it as if it were an experimental subject.
"Otherwise what? Don't you know how strong your hands are?!" Ning Yao rolled her eyes, wearing that dark green face mask, and said irritably.
"What should we feed it, milk?" Wen Tingye suddenly felt that having this little kitten wasn't such a bad thing after all.
At least he and Ning Yao have one more topic to talk about: Ning Yao will take the initiative to call and see how he is getting along with the kitten.
"The food is all in the backpack. I put a small backpack next to Zhuangzhuang, and that's where its food is."
"Okay, I'll feed it in a bit," Wen Tingye said, giving Zhuangzhuang a look as if he were doing it a favor.
"I'm going to bed after I put on my face mask. Don't stay up too late, and take care of yourself."
Although Wen Tingye's body is quite resilient even without care, Ning Yao thought to herself.
Okay, good night.
"Good night."
After hanging up the video call, Wen Tingye stared at his phone screen for a long time.
He recorded all the video calls with Ning Yao, carefully saved them in his folder, and labeled them.
He approached Wen Tingye respectfully only after the video call ended.
"President Wen, may the meeting begin?" Fortunately, the timeout was not very long, only five minutes.
"Let's begin." Upon hearing this, Wen Tingye gently put Zhuangzhuang down.
Before leaving, she tapped the kitten's head twice with her fingertip, looking quite pleased with herself.
……
In the middle of the night, Ning Yao was fast asleep when she was startled awake by the vibration of her phone.
She murmured something and reached for her phone on the bedside table, only to find it was her son calling.
Ning Yao snapped awake and asked nervously, "A-Chen, what's wrong?"
"Mom, I had a nightmare, and I'm a little scared." Ning Chen seemed embarrassed to say it, her cheeks as red as apples.
Although he had lost all his memories, he realized that he was a nineteen-year-old adult, and that a person of that age should not still be so dependent on his mother. He was not a four or five-year-old child.
But the nightmare he had just had left him terrified and uneasy. The hospital ward was too quiet, and the pitch-black environment made him feel extremely uneasy.
Especially when he opened his eyes just now, he seemed to see a figure flash by at the door. That person had clearly been standing at the door of his ward for a long time, but had not come in.
Ning Chen subconsciously took out his phone to call Ning Yao. He was on edge and extremely uneasy throughout the call.
It wasn't until he realized it was 3 a.m. and his mother should be asleep that Ning Chen raised his hand to hang up the phone, but it was too late. A familiar, warm voice came from the other end of the line.
Hearing Ning Yao's voice finally calmed his pounding heart, and this sense of security made Ning Chen feel attached to her.
Once the call was answered, Ning Chen couldn't bear to hang up, so he told her the truth about what had happened.
"Wait a moment, I'll be right there." Ning Yao got up and started changing her clothes without even hanging up the phone, afraid that Ning Chen would be scared. She chatted with him while changing her clothes.
"No need to come over, I feel much better after I told you." Ning Chen refused. It was so late, and it was not safe for Ning Yao to go out alone.
"It's nothing, I just couldn't sleep anyway, so I wanted to go for a walk." Ning Yao put on her clothes, casually brushed her hair aside, and tucked the messy strands behind her ears to smooth them out.
Ning Chen fell silent. He had just heard Ning Yao's voice on the phone, which was clearly hoarse from being woken up after falling asleep.
The more Ning Chen thought about it, the more guilty he felt. He decided that no matter how scared he was in the future, he would never call his mother at such times.
Ning Yao arrived at the hospital quickly, accompanied by Guan Ying.
When she arrived at the hospital entrance, she was surprised to see a familiar figure standing there.
"Miss Huo?" Ning Yao asked suspiciously, but found that the other party was obviously taken aback after hearing her voice.
Huo Muxi already knew about the relationship between Ning Yao and Ning Chen. When she saw her future mother-in-law at the hospital, she didn't know how to address her.
After thinking it over and over, Huo Muxi stood at attention, straightened his shoulders, chuckled dryly, and blurted out.
"Aunt Ning, you're still at the hospital to see A-Chen so late?"
Aunt Ning?
Ning Yao was startled by Huo Muxi's address, but she only froze for a moment before quickly recovering.
She came to the hospital to see her son, who had a nightmare and was waiting for her. She couldn't linger at the entrance for too long.
"Achen is waiting for me inside." With that, Ning Yao concealed the confusion in her eyes and turned to enter the hospital ward.
Ning Chen had already heard the noise at the door, so he got up, put on his slippers, and walked towards the door.
The tall figure in the hospital gown loomed over Ning Yao as she entered, causing her to pause abruptly and nearly bump into him.
"Mom, is someone at the door?" Ning Chen had been feeling something was off for a while. During the time he was asleep, he always felt like someone was watching him, but every time he opened his eyes, he couldn't see them anymore.
He thought it was his imagination until he woke up just now and saw that there was indeed a figure at the door.
"Yes, there was someone there. Did she scare you?" Ning Yao looked at Ning Chen and saw that he looked haggard and his lips were pale, obviously he was quite frightened.
"I don't know." Ning Chen relaxed completely after seeing Ning Yao. He asked Ning Yao to sit down and rest, and poured her a glass of warm water.
Ning Yao felt embarrassed to let her son, who was wearing a hospital gown, take care of her, but she was indeed thirsty, and it was quite hot outside.
As Ning Yao drank the warm water her son poured for her, she felt her throat become much more moist.
"Don't be afraid, Mom has arranged bodyguards at the door, no one will hurt you," Ning Yao gently comforted Ning Chen.
"Mm." Ning Chen nodded, then his gaze lingered on Ning Yao with affection.
Seeing her son's dependent look, Ning Yao's heart softened.
"I'm not leaving tonight. I'll sleep on the sofa and keep you company."
"The sofa isn't comfortable, you should sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on the sofa." Ning Chen couldn't let his mother sleep on the sofa.
“You’re a patient, and you haven’t fully recovered yet. Listen to your mother’s arrangements.” Ning Yao’s voice was gentle, but it carried a strong sense of authority.
Who knew that Ning Chen was even more stubborn than Ning Yao, and refused to let her sleep on the sofa no matter what.
"How about this, I'll have someone bring in a bed, and I'll sleep next to it. That way, neither of us will have to sleep on the sofa," Ning Yao suggested as a compromise.
During Ning Chen's illness, she stayed at the hospital to take care of him, and went back to her apartment to sleep after her son recovered.
During the process of moving the bed, Ning Yao walked out of the ward and encountered Huo Muxi again.
Huo Muxi was exceptionally respectful to her. He had been lazily leaning against a chair in the corridor, but when he saw Ning Yao come out, he quickly stood up and put on a standard kind and friendly smile.
Seeing that Huo Muxi was acting very strangely, Ning Yao said in a cold voice while the hospital caregivers were moving the bed, "Miss Huo, please stop peeking around outside my son's ward. You're giving him nightmares."
"Huh?" Huo Muxi didn't expect Ning Yao to say such a thing to her. She opened her mouth, but after a long while, she only managed to utter one word.
She scared Ning Chen, and even gave him nightmares?
The Ning Chen she knew was clearly a cold and aloof person. Even if his leg was broken, he wouldn't utter a sound. How could he possibly be so scared by her that he would have nightmares?
