Tang Yung's steps were sotis hurried, sotis slow, precisely reflecting the contradiction in her heart.
Finally, she pushed open the bedroom door inside the room.
Lin Chuan was lying quietly on the bed, seemingly asleep.
"Lin Chuan!" Tang Yung rushed over, and the mont she saw Lin Chuan, tears instantly burst out. She was deeply moved and quickly grasped Lin Chuan's hand. At this mont, Silver Fox walked in from outside, leaning on the door fra, and said, "He hasn't woken up yet."
"How could this have happened to him?" Tang Yung asked urgently.
"Severe physical exhaustion, respiratory infection, and sixth-degree burns on his body," Silver Fox glanced at Tang Yung and said, "It will probably take so ti for him to recover."
"Oh my God!" Tang Yung burst into tears.
"Tears are useless," Silver Fox glanced at her and said, "He likes you so much, yet you insist on hurting his heart. Do you deserve him?"
"I..." Tang Yung bit her red lip, struggling to hold back the tears from flowing out.
Actually, as a woman, anyone would be angry in that situation. She was just doing what a woman should do. Besides, she hadn't made up her mind to break up with him, it was just...just that she wanted to cool him off for a few days to let him know won are not to be trifled with.
"Enough," Silver Fox glanced at her and said, "Take good care of him. I have things to do, I must go now."
Having said that, Silver Fox turned and left.
"Silver Fox!" Tang Yung suddenly called out to her and then said, "Thank you!"
"If you really love him, treat him well," Silver Fox glanced at Tang Yung and said, "If you don't love him, then don't give him any hope."
"I know!" Tang Yung nodded and said, "I won't."
"Besides, a man as outstanding as Lin Chuan... I think it wouldn't matter if he had a few more won," Silver Fox glanced at Tang Yung, then turned and walked out the door.
Silver Fox's words deeply touched Tang Yung. Right, Lin Chuan was so outstanding; he was practically a hero, a towering figure. For such a hero, even if he had multiple wives and concubines, so what?
No!
A firm thought suddenly erged in Tang Yung's heart; she absolutely wouldn't allow Lin Chuan to have multiple wives and concubines. Lin Chuan was only hers, she wouldn't allow anyone to take him away, nor would she share Lin Chuan with anyone else.
Tang Yung held Lin Chuan's hand tightly; his hand was already wrapped in gauze, and his arm was bound in several layers. Fortunately, his handso face was left without any marks. Otherwise, Tang Yung would hate herself for a lifeti.
She gently lay on Lin Chuan's chest, listening to the robust sound of his beating heart. Lin Chuan's heartbeat was slow, averaging less than sixty beats per minute. Such a steady heartbeat often erupts with trendous power. Lin Chuan's strength originated from his strong heart.
Listening to Lin Chuan's deep heartbeat, Tang Yung felt imnsely comforted. At least Lin Chuan was still alive.
"Lin Chuan, you said you would protect for a lifeti," Tang Yung held Lin Chuan's hand and then said, "Please keep your promise and wake up soon."
Tang Yung looked at Lin Chuan with tender eyes.
Seeing Lin Chuan motionless, Tang Yung gently tugged at the quilt covering him. However, when she lifted a corner of the quilt, she was stunned. She imdiately threw off the quilt covering Lin Chuan. Scattered across Lin Chuan's chest were nurous wounds, both large and small, and several wounds red as centipedes spread across his chest, even crossing over his entire body.
"This..." Tang Yung was imdiately shocked.
She knew Lin Chuan had many wounds, but the sight still involuntarily startled her. Such a terrifying, such a horrifying scene.
"Oh my God!" Tang Yung covered her mouth with her hands.
If the wounds on the body symbolized manhood, symbolized honor, then Lin Chuan was truly a man among n, moreover carrying the honor of the whole world. Tang Yung's voice choked up slightly, seeing the wounds on Lin Chuan's body, she seed to see the bullet on his chest that he had taken for her.
She gently caressed Lin Chuan's chest with her hand, her tears freely falling.
"Sis, is it really okay for you to watch like this?" Lin Chuan opened his eyes.
"Ah?!" Tang Yung was startled, and said, "Lin Chuan, you...you're awake?"
"I woke up when you were just lying on ," Lin Chuan said with a smile.
"Then...then why didn't you say anything?" Tang Yung asked.
"If I had spoken, how could I have witnessed your true feelings, sister?" Lin Chuan grinned.
"Forget it!" Tang Yung bit her red lip, and said, "The longer you sleep, the more I worry. You don't know how to be considerate at all. You really make sad!"
"Sis..." Lin Chuan looked at Tang Yung affectionately.
"What is it?" Tang Yung asked.
"That...when I confessed to you on the Drum Tower, you still haven't answered ," Lin Chuan chuckled.
"Hmph." Tang Yung snorted, "I won't agree!"
"Why?" Lin Chuan was so anxious he nearly jumped up.
The slightest movent imdiately tugged at his wound, causing him to grimace in pain, his forehead breaking out in cold sweat. Tang Yung hurriedly said, "What are you doing? Why the rush?"
"If you don't agree with , of course I'm anxious!" Lin Chuan said in agony, "Watching the duck that's about to fall into my lap fly away... Ah, no no, I an watching you about to beco my girlfriend, and now you're running away."
"Hmph, wasn't it about the duck that's about to fly away?" Tang Yung huffed.
"No... it's not!" Lin Chuan quickly shook his head.
"I'm running away?" Tang Yung waited for Lin Chuan's response, "You flirt with that beauty in the bar, and I haven't even settled the score with you yet, why should I agree to you?"
"I... I..." Lin Chuan was sowhat at a loss.
"Tell , how far have you gone with her?" Tang Yung was peeling an apple, perhaps brandishing the knife in her hand, asking, "Did you sleep with her?"
"Ah..." Lin Chuan's mind was struck by a sudden thunderbolt. How did Tang Yung hit the nail on the head so quickly?
Tang Yung stared into Lin Chuan's eyes and demanded, "Spill it, have you slept with her or not!"
"No... No... Not at all!" Lin Chuan hurriedly shook his head.
"Really not?" Tang Yung asked coldly.
"Ouch..." Lin Chuan cried out in pain.
"What's wrong with you?" Tang Yung imdiately dropped the apple and the knife.
"My leg... it hurts!" Lin Chuan hurriedly said.
"Let see!" Tang Yung quickly crouched down and examined the wound on Lin Chuan's leg. Blood was seeping through the bandage. She hurriedly said, "Looks like I need to change your dressing."
Tang Yung carefully unwound the bandage on Lin Chuan's leg. The sight of the bloody ss tugged at her heartstrings deeply.
Yet, Lin Chuan was showing a hint of a smile. He'd finally managed to divert Tang Yung's attention away from that question. He had a guilty conscience just now and wasn't sure if Tang Yung had noticed. If he really told her that he had already slept with Fang Yuan, Tang Yung would probably explode in fury.
"Sis, thank you so much." Lin Chuan smiled.
"You jerk." Tang Yung spoke affectionately, "Who asked you to co rescue ? I might as well have died."
"How could that be okay?" Lin Chuan imdiately shook his head and said, "If you died, my mom wouldn't let off the hook. She's counting on you to give the Lin family a big fat baby boy!"
"Go away!" Tang Yung glared at Lin Chuan, "Who wants to have your baby?"
"Hehe, we're going to have one sooner or later, right?" Lin Chuan chuckled mischievously.
Tang Yung's face turned red, she bit her lip, and while carefully changing Lin Chuan's dressing, she said, "I don't want that at all."
Lin Chuan enjoyed Tang Yung's care, lying still on the bed. Now that he was a wounded man, he could just lie back and be served. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Tang Yung's movents were indeed very careful, and after more than ten minutes, the dressing on Lin Chuan's leg was finally changed.
"Sis, now that I'm like this, I guess I won't be able to get out of bed and walk around for the next couple of days." Lin Chuan sighed.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of you." Tang Yung soothed, "I will stay with you for the next few days, alright?"
"Really?" Lin Chuan looked at Tang Yung with surprise.
"Mhm!" Tang Yung nodded and said, "It's my responsibility to stay with you since your burns ca about because of ."
"Sigh, you're so busy with work." Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Sis, it's the thought that counts. You should go back to your work. You're the Secretary of Jiangbei City, how can you neglect your duties for the sake of soone as insignificant as ?"
"Hmph, you're not so no-na nobody now." Tang Yung snorted coldly, "You're now a big hero of Jiangbei City."
"What big hero?" Lin Chuan looked at Tang Yung in astonishnt.
"Your heroic act has already been broadcast on Jiangbei TV, and it's even been relayed by the provincial TV station." Tang Yung smiled at Lin Chuan and said, "Central TV is likely to relay it soon since their staff has already contacted Jiangbei TV's reporters to get the details, and it seems they're planning to do a special interview. You're about to beco a national celebrity."
"Ah?!" Lin Chuan was shocked.
This would not do. To the average person, Lin Chuan might look like just another man, but to so, Lin Chuan's identity absolutely could not be exposed.
"What? You don't want to be a celebrity, to be a hero?" Tang Yung asked.
"Of course, I don't!" Lin Chuan imdiately shook his head.
"Why?" Tang Yung asked.
"Because I'm just not that kind of high-profile person." Lin Chuan smiled, "I just want to be an ordinary person, not wanting to cause a storm or a sensation."
Tang Yung blinked curiously at Lin Chuan, "I suddenly rembered. The bank robbery last October, and the incident at the chemical plant... you didn't make any public appearances in those either, tell why don't you want to be famous?"
