bbuy fruits
Yuyu opened her eyes and counted to ten before slowly rising to a sitting position.
She stood up and told JiaJia, "Okay, I'm ready."
The two of them headed for the bathroom for that medicine.
Just like yesterday night, that medicine will make her throw up the dinner she ate earlier and she will end up with a congee.
YaoFeng wanted to be the one assisting her but he knows with her anxiety, he will just add to her discomfort.
The three of them stayed in that room.
He pulled the lazy chair beside her bed and settled himself there when she fell asleep, while nurse JiaJia watched them while reading her books.
It was almost four in the morning when YaoFeng heard some noises. JiaJia already stood up to go to Yuyu but YaoFeng signaled her to stay away from them.
He gently rubbed her arms and said, "It's just a dream, It's just a dream.." this is how the nurse did it when she calmed down but this time she's more agitated.
"I did not..." she said while tossing her face left and right. "Please... "
YaoFeng continued trying to calm her. "It's just a dream, wake up"
"Hubby.." yuyu called out.
YaoFeng froze. Did she just -
"Mr. Ming, I.. apo..logize… Please don't… Please don't..." Yuyu was perspiring now and beads of sweat formed on her forehead.
JiaJia can no longer take it.
"CEO Ming, let me wake her up." She moved to the other side and shook her gently.
"Mrs. Ming, please wake up," it took her three calls before she fluttered her eyelashes and her eyes focused on JiaJia.
"You are having a nightmare. Let me get you a change of clothes,your back and forehead are sweating." She looked at the CEO who nodded at her.
She went to the built-in closet and found out there's no more supply of hospital clothes.
"I'll just go out to request hospital clothes." She informed them.
"That will take too much time. Get a shirt from my clothes." YaoFeng ordered.
JiaJia pulled out a shirt and went to help remove the clothes from Yuyu. The patient held tightly on her clothes.
"Mrs. Ming, we need to replace your clothes or the sweat will seep on your wound." She explained calmly.
"CEO Ming, please help your wife to remove her clothes," JiaJia pleaded.
He was about to touch her when she looked at him with fear and begging.
(Please don't… Please don't...) Yaofeng felt that it was the night of the event she was referring to!
He stood up and made an excuse.
"Change her clothes, I'll get some cold patch for her."

Outside the VIP room, YaoFeng's eyes warmed up and reddened. He took two deep breaths and headed out of the hospital. He walked around the street to find a convenient store and bought a cold fever patch.
When he returned, Yuyu was back to sleep with a cloth on her forehead.
"CEO Ming, where did you go?" JiaJia asked.
He lifted the plastic bag to show he bought fever patches.
JiaJia sighed. This is the problem with rich people. "Next time, you can just ask the nurse, we have it in stock."
"Sorry, I only found out."
He mumbled, staring at his wife. Who knows if he's talking to his wife or to the nurse.

Yuyu woke up late and looked for JiaJia. YaoFeng kept his distance and calmly said, "Her shift finished while you're still asleep."
Yuyu frowned and looked for her phone. "Good morning as well. Did Night prepare my clothes? Okay, go to the first drawer and get one box of perfume. Yes, put it inside. Give it to my brother. I'll call him."
She hung up and made a call again.
"Yes I did. That is urgent. I already scheduled a driver to send it to my husband's office. Thanks a lot."
Before YaoFeng could guess, she made another call!
"TanTan! You have my number?! I see. My brother is sending me a gift. The person who will deliver is called uncle Lei, he's wearing the White Global's badge. Call me back when it arrives. Don't send it up. Alright, thanks!"
She took a deep breath and calmed herself.
---
Ming YaoFeng could only hardly guess she's covering up things again and did not bother.
He was called into attention when she talked to him while pretending to fix her bed.
"Mr. Ming, I hope you could go to your office or wherever you need to be but here. I need some private time with myself, and it would be troublesome if you are here." She said as calmly as she could.
"I can help you with what you need to do." He offered without moving from his place.
Yuyu tensed and pressed a button for help.
YaoFeng got worried as he did not know what made her do that.
A nurse came and Yuyu automatically looked at the door.
"Nurse Bo!" she exclaimed. "You are on day shift?!"
The nurse smiled. "Yeah. requested by a child patient."
"I see." Yuyu smiled. "My husband would like to buy fruits, but he doesn't know where to get them. Can you give him instructions?"
That's the only reason she could think of sending him away.
"Eh? Just go to the second floor, if you need it quickly. For fresher fruits, the mall two blocks from here is already open. You can go there." Nurse Bo explained.
YaoFeng realized that Yuyu was sending him away so he decided to stand up and leave.
Yuyu smiled and grabbed nurse Bo's arm.
Before the door completely close behind him, YaoFeng heard his wife,
"Nurse Bo, please help me take a bath."
Only now did YaoFeng understand that he cannot help her with that task and that's also the reason why she tensed and immediately pressed the button.
He chuckled at himself and headed to buy fruits at the mall.

"No need to nurse Bo. Someone will send me clothes. Thank you for helping me!" Yuyu assured the nurse when she offered to get her some hospital clothes as there were no more in her closet.
The nurse left her with her hair wrapped on a towel and she stayed in her thick bathrobe while waiting for a call.
At last, her phone rang.
"TanTan! Is it there?" Yuyu asked on the phone.
"Yes, I got it from the man you described." TanTan said.
"Alright, open it and get the box of perfume." She commanded.
TanTan the receptionist from the Ming corporation, followed the young madam's instruction.
"I got the perfume Xiao Yuyu."
"Okay. remove the seal and open it. Tell me if it smells good or not." TanTan felt a little embarrassed as her opinion might not be the same as Xiao Yuyu. But, maybe she just needs to tell the truth. This could be a test of her honesty.
"I opened it and sprayed it on my wrist." TanTan reported. "The scent becomes better as seconds pass by. This is a good perfume, Xiao Yuyu."
"Great. Keep the perfume for yourself." Yuyu heard the receptionist giggled. Receiving a gift from the boss' wife is really something huh?! She felt elated.
"Now call someone to bring my clothes to my address. Wait, I'm visiting a friend at the hospital near our office. Why don't you just get one of our secretaries to deliver it to the hospital? Can you do it? Right? Okay, write this on the paper bag. [VIP - Nurse Station Mrs. CEO Ming Yuyu] Alright? Okay call me if there's a problem." Yuyu ended the call and waited.

TanTan was dialing the secretariat when she saw Assistant Xu coming out of the lift. She put down the phone and run to him instead.
"Assistant Xu!" the man turned.
"Xiao Yuyu has a job. She was visiting a friend and needed her stuff delivered to the hospital." Tantan explained.
"Oh? Okay, It's on the way. I can bring it." Assistant Xu did not need to explain that he's sending documents for signing to his boss. He took the package with him.
---
YaoFeng came back with a basket of assorted fruits when he saw a man in a suit walking to the nurse station.
"Xu Heng." He called.
Assistant Xu immediately turned and walked towards his boss.
"Boss, I came here to give you these," he showed the folders for signature.
YaoFeng eyed the thing on his other hand.
"Yeah right! Someone from the office said that Yuyu is visiting a friend here and asked to drop this at the nurse station." Assistant Xu showed the specific note.
"Leave all of these to me. I'll call you when you can get them back."
Assistant Xu did not ask further. Since they found out the car was here, he already have an idea who's in the hospital; plus the bloody bed on the event night. Could it be serious that Yuyu was confined?
Of course he cannot ask is boss about it.
He just sent him a message: "Boss, if you need anything, I'm just here."
