“What are you doing?” Yi Ming looked at the few people who suddenly barged in in a daze.
Yi Long also stood up from the sofa and looked at Shi Man inquisitively.
However, this time, there was no need for Shi Man to explain personally. The attending doctor took the initiative to advise seriously, “The patient has just finished the surgery. Although the surgery is not big, it’s not suitable to eat these things. We have to do a simple physical examination of the patient now.”
“But my uncle hasn’t had dinner yet.” Yi Long frowned in confusion, feeling that something was wrong.
Shi Man nimbly took away all the bowls and chopsticks in front of Yi Ming. She did not even let go of the chopsticks in his hand. Her face was filled with concern for him. “Eldest Grandpa has to listen to the doctor. You can’t eat these now.”
Yi Ming’s jaw almost dropped.
Before he could react, the doctor had already quickly checked his vital signs. Then, he instructed the nurse to give him a nutritional injection and said, “Don’t worry, your body is in stable condition, but you can’t eat these fish and meat now. You have to control your diet.”
“You, you…” Yi Ming looked at the doctor and then at Shi Man, who had a serious expression. He was suddenly furious and roared fiercely in the ward, “Get lost! Get out! I don’t want to see you!”
Another violent cough made Yi Ming feel uncomfortable in his heart. He hurriedly controlled his emotions and closed his eyes as he lay on the bed. It took him a while to catch his breath.
The doctor immediately felt a headache when he saw this. He had been a doctor for so many years and hated such patients who refused to cooperate with treatment and had a bad temper. He frowned and called Yi Long and the others out of the ward. After giving them some instructions, he left with the nurse.
Only Yi Zheng and Shi Man were left guarding the ward.
Yi Ming opened his eyes slightly and saw Shi Man’s smiling face. He hurriedly closed his eyes and swallowed hard. “If my life is really gone because of you, I’m afraid you won’t be able to marry Yi Zheng for the rest of your life.”
Shi Man chuckled and shrugged her shoulders indifferently. “Don’t worry. With me around, 1 definitely won’t let anything happen to you. You’ll definitely recover quickly. I’ll continue to visit you tomorrow. Good night, Eldest Grandpa.”
Yi Ming closed his eyes and did not move.
Shi Man did not expect him to respond. This old man probably still did not know how to scheme against her. However, Shi Man really didn’t care.
She knew medicine and knew how to control herself. She would definitely not let him cause any issues.
The next morning, Shi Man woke up especially early. After a morning run, the sky had just lit up. After taking a shower and eating breakfast, she drove to the hospital alone.
Yi Ming had been tortured badly last night and was still unconscious, but the “alarm clock” he had personally set came.
Shi Man pushed open the ward door and looked at Yi Ming’s pale face. She pushed his arm expressionlessly. “Eldest Grandpa, wake up. Are you alright? Please don’t scare me.”
She spoke anxiously, but there was no worry on her face. Only when Yi Ming was finally woken up by her did she retract her arm and smile at him. “Eldest Grandpa, is there anything I can do for you today?”
Yi Ming gritted his teeth and stretched out his trembling hand after a while. “You, help me sit up.”
“Okay.” Shi Man bent down and leaned closer. She lifted the old man’s waist and helped him up. Unexpectedly, Yi Ming suddenly grabbed her wrist tightly, leaving a red mark on it.
Shi Man continued to support her against the bedhead without changing her expression. She slowly retracted her hand and looked at the flesh that was gradually turning purple. She said with a fake smile, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll be more vicious and hide a needle in your pillow?”
Yi Ming’s heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm on the surface. He only shifted his waist against the pillow without batting an eyelid. When there was no pain from any needle, he was completely relieved. He sneered and said, “How dare you? If you really do that, 1 have even more reason to make you scram.”
��Yes, it’s not to the extent of hiding needles, but why do 1 smell something else in your room?”
Shi Man’s sensitive nose sniffed around the ward and finally locked onto the drawer of the bedside table.
A trace of nervousness suddenly appeared on Yi Ming’s calm face. He frowned and put on an impatient posture. He started to chase her away angrily. “Leave first. I don’t need you this morning. Come again tonight.”
Shi Man raised her eyebrows slightly. Her gaze swept across the drawer before she turned around and left.
However, when she walked out of the ward, Shi Man’s expressionless face suddenly became gloomy. If she didn’t guess it wrongly, there was a rare “big treasure” hidden in Yi Ming’s bedside table.
She walked to the nurses’ station and asked patiently, “Did anyone come to see my eldest grandfather last night?”
Shi Man had caused quite a commotion in the hospital these past few days. The nurse knew whom she was referring to. After thinking for a while, she nodded and said, “Yes, after you left yesterday, a young man came to see that old man. Other than that, there’s no one else..”
