Was he just being responsible?
"Zichen, I feel like no matter what I do, you can't see me. No matter how anxious I am, I can never enter your heart."
Qian Lan lay weakly on the bed. But, the pain she felt was nothing compared to Mo Zichen's cold words.
Qian Lan couldn't understand him. He gave her hope, yet he disappointed her at the same time. But, when she was in despair, he would give her warmth again.
This made Qian Lan's heart feel tired.
"Let's sleep a little longer. The anesthesia has just worn off, it's going to hurt a lot."
"Go home. It'll hurt even more if you're here," Qian Lan replied.
"As long as you know it hurts," Mo Zichen completely ignored her as he tidied up her things and helped her wipe her face.
Qian Lan didn't have the energy to argue with him, so she could only close her eyes helplessly. But, with this man hovering in front of her, how could she possibly fall asleep?
Soon, Qian Lan's subordinates arrived at the hospital with guilty expressions on their faces.
As soon as Mo Zichen saw them, he immediately asked, "Come and see her in a bit. She's just fallen asleep."
"It's fine. Come in," Qian Lan struggled to fall asleep. Since there were people here, she decided not to sleep anymore.
The recruits approached Qian Lan guiltily and bowed apologetically, "Instructor Qian, we didn't do it on purpose. We didn't know something like this would happen. Please forgive us."
"I don't blame you," Qian Lan replied. "I also made mistakes when I was a recruit."
"Instructor Qian, we will be obedient from now on and never cause you any trouble again."
"Yes, Instructor Qian, I'm really sorry."
"If I was you, I would be asking for punishment instead of crying in front of Qian Lan." Mo Zichen stood to one side and listened to their conversation. He was certain that these were the recruits that caused Qian Lan to suffer such a serious injury.
"Every soldier should follow orders because a mistake can affect your life and the lives of your comrades. In fact, it can even decide the outcome of a battle. Since you've done something wrong, you should be punished."
"Qian Lan has been in the military for 5 years and has not died on the battlefield. She has protected her country, yet she almost died in the hands of trash like you. Don't always use recruits as an excuse. You are all adults and need to take responsibility for your actions!"
"Who are you? Why are you yelling at us? "
The soldiers were not happy with Mo Zichen's scolding, so they immediately questioned him. But, just as they finished speaking, the recruit's body was thrown out of the room. No one saw Mo Zichen's actions clearly, not even Qian Lan.
"I'm about to become Qian Lan's husband."
As soon as they heard it was Qian Lan's husband, everyone was surprised.
No wonder he was so angry …
"Still not going to apologize? We almost killed Instructor Qian. Isn't it normal for her husband to be angry? "
The group quickly bowed to Mo Zichen and disappeared from the room. Seeing this, Qian Lan grinned, "Usually, it takes a lot of effort for me to teach them a lesson. I never expected you to be so powerful."
"I'll go to the hospital kitchen and cook something for you."
"Zichen …" Qian Lan suddenly called out. "Are you really willing to be my husband?"
"It doesn't matter whether you're willing or not. Isn't it already like this?" After speaking, Mo Zichen turned around and left the room.
Qian Lan smiled, but in the end, she ended up crying. For some reason, Mo Zichen always managed to make her feel extremely complicated.
Even after nightfall, Mo Zichen was still sitting in the room. As soon as Qian Lan saw him lying on the bed, she quickly woke him up, "There's a nurse here. Go home and get some rest."
Qian Lan was worried that he might leave the room in the middle of the night.
"Go to sleep. I'll leave in a bit," Mo Zichen replied calmly.
"Actually, my body hurts a lot. I can't sleep," Qian Lan said as she lay on the bed. Qian Lan lay on the bed and shifted her body in discomfort. "I can't move my body. It's already stiff."
After hearing this, Mo Zichen pulled a chair over to sit in front of Qian Lan and began massaging her muscles.
"Do you only treat me so well when I'm injured?"
"So, for the sake of me, you've decided to get injured all the time?" Mo Zichen asked.
"I'll fight for it …"
Mo Zichen sighed as he put down Qian Lan's stiff arms and covered her with a blanket.
"You have another surgery in a few days. But, the injury on your back is too serious. It's bound to leave a scar."
"It's fine. After all, it complements your back."
"No one can catch up to how thick your skin is."
Qian Lan did not say a word. She simply tried to hold onto Mo Zichen's hand.
At first, Mo Zichen wanted to pull his hand away, but Qian Lan held onto it. Seeing this, he stopped struggling and let Qian Lan hold onto his hand.
Qian Lan held onto Mo Zichen's hand and pressed her cheek against it, cherishing it.
"If my injury can get you to care for me, I'm willing to do it."
After hearing this, Mo Zichen's heart was moved. After all … even though Qian Lan broke up with him 5 years ago, she didn't betray him.
Yet, she was already acting so submissive. What else did he want?
5 years later, his lover had returned to his side. Did he have to use this attitude to chase her away again?
Mo Zichen did not move. He simply allowed Qian Lan to hold onto his hand as he fell asleep …
The next day, a few more soldiers came to visit Qian Lan. It was at this time that everyone found out that the tigress Qian Lan had such a handsome fiancé. However, she had never told anyone about it.
Mo Zichen had classes during the day, so he would leave the hospital for a while and return after work. While he was gone, the caretakers would take care of him.
When her best friend saw her, she couldn't help but ask about Qian Lan's personal matters, "Are the two of you sure you're together? How come I've never seen the two of you contact each other? "
"We don't have a good relationship …"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Everyone at the military base knows about how your husband taught those new soldiers a lesson. If that's not concern, then what is? "
"If someone else was injured, would he be so angry? Did you know that one of the new soldiers broke his ribs? "
"But, his words are very cold," Qian Lan said helplessly.
"I say, my Instructor Qian, can you not be so shallow? Apart from judging a person's face, you should also look at their heart … Even outsiders can tell that they care about you. So, what's your interpretation? "
"If I was your fiancé, I would definitely be angered to death by you!"
"By the way, your fiancé is really handsome!"
Really? Was that care? Qian Lan couldn't help but ask herself.
Indeed, when Mo Zichen did what he did, did he only feel hatred towards her?
