Chapter 600 - More consideration, less concern
Chapter 600 More consideration, less concern
Mo Yichen waited for Li Yunhong to fall asleep before quietly exiting the ward. Li Yunhong was a light sleeper who would wake up at the slightest noise. Now that she fell asleep finally, Mo Yichen breathed a sigh of relief and moved more gently, fearing that a slight movement would wake Li Yunhong up.
Mo Yichen hadn’t seen Mo Xiangyan for a whole day. He left the room and walked towards Mo Xiangyan’s room, but he was not sure whether Mo Xiangyan was sleeping right now. No matter what, he just wanted to say a word to Mo Xiangyan, just to say a word.
Because Mo Xiangyan and Li Yunhong were not in the same department, their wards were also very far apart. It was late at night, and there were few people in the corridor. After all, most of the people who came to the hospital were physically ill and needed a good rest.
Mo Yichen walked through the long and quiet corridor alone, and then climbed the stairs without taking the lift. Now, he did not want to be exposed to modern technology and do anything. He just wanted to be quiet.
Mo Yichen wanted to see Mo Xiangyan again before he went to bed, so his steps were very fast. After a short time, he reached the door of Mo Xiangyan’s ward. When he looked through the tiny glass of the door, he could see that only Gu Yan and Mo Xiangyan were there. And Gu Yan was sitting in front of Mo Xiangyan’s bed.
Mo Yichen could only see a back of Gu Yan, but from her movements, he could know that she was peeling an apple for Mo Xiangyan because he knew that Gu Yan was an extremely self-disciplined woman, and she would not eat anything at such a late hour.
At this moment, a trace of warmth finally rose in Mo Yichen’s heart. Although he had suffered too many hits these days, at least he still had an eternal harbor where he could feel warm and beloved.
Mo Yichen pushed open the door and the two in the room looked at him together, “Daddy!” Mo Xiangyan exclaimed excitedly. If his arm were not in plaster, he would give Mo Yichen a bearhug right now.
“Why are you alone with Xiangyan? Where is the caregiver and the nanny?” Mo Yichen felt sorry for Gu Yan alone with Mo Xiangyan, fearing that she would not be able to cope with it, so he arranged a caregiver early, and the nanny at home could also help her out. But now only Gu Yan was in the ward.
“I sent them home. It’s so crowded to arrange many people in such a small room, and I also want to spend more time with Xiangyan. So, I let them go back home after dinner. You don’t worry about it.” Seeing Mo Yichen’s displeasure, Gu Yan explained hurriedly. After all, he had been troubled by too many things recently, so she didn’t want to make him feel even worse.
Only after listening to Gu Yan’s explanation did Mo Yichen feel at ease.
“How are you today? Does it still hurt?” Mo Yichen never brought his emotions at work to Mo Xiangyan, so in front of Mo Xiangyan, he was just a father.
“It doesn’t hurt at all! Daddy, look!” In order to prove that it really didn’t hurt, Mo Xiangyan raised his hand up, but when he did so, the wound was pulled again, causing him to scream with pain.
Mo Yichen stared at Mo Xiangyan with a disapproving look, and Mo Xiangyan was also guilty, so he didn’t dare to show off again.
“Daddy, how is grandma going? Can I visit her tomorrow? There will be problems with my body if I keep lying down like this!” Mo Xiangyan cleverly changed the topic and said his desire. His grandmother usually loved him the most and now she was in hospital, so Mo Xiangyan worried her even though he was so young.
And lying like this every day, he really felt uncomfortable, so he told Gu Yan his feeling, but not being allowed. It was because Gu Yan was too worried about him, fearing that he would encounter bad things. In addition, Mo Xiangyan did not tell Gu Yan he was going to see Li Yunhong in that he also knew the two were on bad terms.
Actually, Gu Yan also hoped that Mo Xiangyan would go out for a walk. She thought that it was very uncomfortable to lie down on the bed every day, let alone for the child. But she still had to ask Mo Yichen’s opinion, after all... he was Xiangyan’s father, while she was an outsider. She was worried about being scolded by Li Yunhong when there was a trouble again.
Mo Yichen had no objection in fact because as a man, he didn’t think that boys should be raised with great care. Everyone would have bumps and bruises when they were the children. However, even though Mo Yichen thought so, his concern for Mo Xiangyan would never be reduced at all because of this thought. He cared about Mo Xiangyan very much, but at this time, he really didn’t feel that lying on the hospital bed would help much.
After all, children were playful by nature, and the pain they felt when they were injured was naturally be forgotten afterwards.
But Mo Yichen still respected Gu Yan’s opinions, and he didn’t want her to feel that she was not respected.
“I think it’s okay to exercise. After all, he hurt his arm, instead of his leg. It’s so hard for me to see that he is stuck like this every day. Besides, your mother should be happier if he can go and see her.” Gu Yan thought further, because she knew that Li Yunhong, who was different from Mo Yichen, would directly express her dissatisfaction.
If Mo Xiangyan was by Li Yunhong’s side, she would have scruples and would not be so indiscreet and angry crucially. The doctor had already told Li Yunhong to have a rest-cure and not be emotional, otherwise her condition would worsen.
But Gu Yan really felt helpless for Li Yunhong’s anger, and she had already tried not to meet Li Yunhong. Li Yunhong often threw tantrums, so the decision of letting Mo Xiangyan accompany her might be better for her.
“Okay, Daddy and Aunt Yan have allowed it. Can I sleep now?” Although Mo Xiangyan had slept all day, he was more excited after getting their permission. Even if he couldn’t sleep right now, he still had to close his eyes and pretended to be asleep. When he did that, he really fell asleep.
Mo Yichen and Gu Yan didn’t say anything, just watching Mo Xiangyan fall asleep with even breathing. Seeing a smile touched his mouth, Gu Yan couldn’t help smiling and reached out to tuck the quilt corner for Mo Xiangyan.
“I didn’t let Xiangyan watch TV all day today. Um... what was said on the show is really bad. You should pay attention to it and don’t let your mother watch it, or she will get angry, which is not good for her health. It will be fine after this period of time.” There were only a few programs put on the TV in the hospital, more or less involving Mo Yichen’s company affairs.
Moreover, what was said in the program was always distorted, so Gu Yan didn’t want them to watch it and reminded him. Mo Yichen nodded, and he actually failed to think of that. Gu Yan was always more attentive than him, and her consideration made him feel at ease.
