“I said, sleep.”
“No.” Huo Jinyao seemed determined to make her say it. “If you don’t say it, we’ll do something else, something that will impress you so much that you won’t be able to forget it.”
“Huo Jinyao.”
“Will you miss me? Say it. Yes or no?”
“Yes, I will. I’ll miss you, okay? Get off me.”
“Sweetheart.” He came over to her and kissed her on the lips. “I will miss you, too. I will miss you so much,” he said.
“Alright. Now, sleep.”
“Sweetheart, I’m telling you, you must be careful out there. Don’t get too tired.”
“I know.”
“You should also stay away from men with bad intentions, especially the male doctors at your hospital.”
“Huo Jinyao, what are you talking about?”
“Okay, I’ll stop. You just have to keep my advice in mind and you must not go to dangerous places.”
“Huo Jinyao.” Su Qingsang thought that he kept getting more and more ridiculous, so she pushed away his hands and turned over to sleep. “I’m going to the countryside with a medical team to participate in a free clinic. Where do you think I am going to start brawling with someone?”
“I’m just worried about you.” Huo Jinyao put his arm around her again and said, “You are so stupid that I just fear for you—”
“I’m stupid?” Su Qingsang could not listen to him any longer. “Who are you calling stupid?”
She had been a top student in her medical school. Why was it that he treated her like a moron?
“No, I am. I am stupid.” Huo Jinyao stopped and said, “Sweetheart, remember to video chat me every day.”
“Huo Jinyao, do you want me to get sleep or not?”
“Yes, yes. I’ll go to sleep right away—”
Huo Jinyao rubbed his face against her neck and whispered another question before Su Qingsang closed her eyes to sleep. “Well, that Zuo Hongchen. I mean, he is not going with you, is he?”
Su Qingsang closed her eyes and covered her ears, completely unwilling to listen to him.
…
The bus for the medical team left at seven in the morning and the team was supposed to gather in the parking lot at the gate of the hospital. There were twenty people on the team, including both doctors and nurses.
Huo Jinyao bought breakfast very early in the morning and, when Su Qingsang got up to catch a taxi to the hospital, he had been up and ready. He took her luggage outside and said, “Sweetheart, let me drive you there.”
“Why did you get up so early?”
Huo Jinyao was used to getting up early, but this was a little earlier than he was used to, judging by the breakfast he’d prepared.
“My wife is leaving; of course, I must see her off.”
Su Qingsang was touched. Looking at Huo Jinyao from her heart for the first time, she opened her mouth and said, “Thank you, Huo Jinyao.”
“Sweetheart, you are my wife. Don’t thank me.”
After breakfast, Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao got in the car together. By the time they got to the parking lot, nearly half the people had arrived.
When Huo Jinyao opened the trunk, Su Qingsang found that, in addition to the luggage, Huo Jinyao had bought her some snacks, water, and fruit.
“Sweetheart, take these to eat on the road.”
Su Qingsang looked at the package and knew that the store didn’t open so early Did that mean that Huo Jinyao had prepared this even earlier?
“Huo Jinyao—”
“Sweetheart.” Huo Jinyao did not seem to notice how moved she was. He just kept looking at the people on the medical team who had already arrived. “is everyone here?”
Su Qingsang took a look and nodded. Almost everyone had gotten there in the last few minutes.
“Yes, I think so.”
Some were from other departments, so she did not know them well. Still, she thought they should be here.
Huo Jinyao took another look at the crowd and smiled.
That smile only lasted for less than a minute. It disappeared when he saw Zuo Hongchen, who showed up suddenly.
