Chapter 9
When Gu Xi opened her eyes again, what she saw was a white ceiling, and the smell of disinfectant in the air made her realize that she was in a hospital.

She turned her head and looked around, and found that Fang Nuan was sitting by the bed, peeling an apple seriously.

"Nuannuan, what time is it now?" As soon as she spoke, she realized that her voice was extremely hoarse, and her throat was even dry and uncomfortable, and it felt like it was being torn apart after only a few words.

"You're awake!" Fang Nuan threw the apple aside excitedly, rang the contact bell to call the doctor, rushed over and hugged her, "It's okay! I'm almost scared to death!"

Gu Xi wanted to say something, but his throat was really sore.

Fang Nuan hurriedly let her go, raised the head of the bed to help her sit up, and brought her another glass of water to drink: "Don't worry, drink some water first, you have been in a coma for a day, you need to drink more water."

After drinking a few sips of warm water, she finally regained her strength, feeling a little dizzy in her head, she covered her forehead and asked, "Where's Zhou Tao?"

"It has been taken away by the police for investigation." Fang Nuan sat down beside the bed and continued to peel her apples. "What a lunatic, he still wants to kidnap you? It's a shame that he can think of such a bad move."

"He wants to kidnap me?" Gu Xi was stunned for a moment before he could react, "Is there something wrong with his brain? He knows that I have no money at all."

Fang Nuan paused, looked up at her for a while, and then ran out suddenly.

Just when the doctor arrived at the door, she hurriedly pulled him in: "Doctor, check her quickly, is the child suffering from some kind of stimulation and has something wrong with his brain!"

Seeing Fang Nuan's anxious look, the doctor thought that something was wrong with Gu Xi, but after a careful inspection, everything was normal: "Don't worry, I'm fine, it may be because of the influence of inhaling ether, my consciousness is still a little blurred, rest for a couple of days." God will be fine."

"Really? Doctor, could it be that she broke her brain? Do you want to have a CT scan of the brain?" Fang Nuan seemed to believe that there was something wrong with Gu Xi's brain, so she pulled the doctor's sleeve and refused. put.

Gu Xi couldn't see her anymore and pulled her back. The doctor looked at her with a smile, and went out with the nurse.

Seeing that everyone was leaving, Gu Xi glared at Fang Nuan: "Why are you crazy, I wish I could become stupid."

"Aren't you just stupid?" Fang Nuan waved her finger in front of her, "Let me ask you, how much is this?"

Gu Xi slapped her hand away angrily: "Go! You're a bastard."

"Who told you to scare me? You don't even know why Zhou Tao wants to tie you up. You forgot that you are already married to Xiao Yan. What kind of net worth is Xiao Yan? If you blackmail him, Zhou Tao will live happily ever after."

Gu Xi only came back to it now: "But if I remember correctly, Zhou Tao himself was also a rich second generation, so why is he like this?"

"His father's company has a problem, and it seems to be going bankrupt. It seems that he tied you up to get a sum of money to go back to help his father. This is great, and he has put himself in it."

Gu Xi nodded if he realized something: "What about the other man?"

"Another one?" Fang Nuan was taken aback for a moment, "Anyone else besides Zhou Tao?"

"Yes! I didn't approach Zhou Tao when I saw him. A man suddenly rushed over to take me away, and he covered me with a towel." Gu Xi frowned, "You only caught Zhou Tao but not the man. ?”

"At that time, you suddenly fell into a coma and frightened us. How could you care so much? Only after you said Zhou Tao's name did Zhou Tao be dragged out. I didn't know there were other accomplices."

Gu Xi faintly felt that something was wrong but couldn't tell, so he frowned and thought carefully.

Fang Nuan suddenly shouted: "Ah, Mr. Xiao is back."

Gu Xi didn't even raise his head: "Don't make trouble, he's still in America."

"My wife has been bullied like this, can I still wait for news in the United States?" Xiao Yan's voice came into his ears.

Gu Xi suddenly raised his head in disbelief, stared at him in a daze for a while before making a sound, "You... when did you come back?"

"It hasn't been long since I've been back." Xiao Yan walked to the hospital bed, reached out and stroked her forehead naturally, "Is the head still hurting? The doctor said that after two days of observation, you can leave the hospital. If you feel any discomfort , remember to tell me."

"Well, it's all right." Gu Xi subconsciously wanted to avoid his hand, but when he thought of Fang Nuan's presence, his movements froze, and he hurriedly changed the subject, "You came back in such a hurry, won't it affect your work?"

"The rest of the finishing touches can be handled here." Xiao Yan withdrew his hand, pulled up the quilt and covered her up, and then sat down beside the bed, "No work is as important as you."

Gu Xi's heartbeat was a little uncontrollable, and he could only keep telling himself that he was just acting in front of Fang Nuan, it was all fake, and he couldn't think about it.

She was still strengthening her psychological defenses, but Fang Nuan had already smiled and said, "I know you guys are better than newlyweds, so you should also take care of my feelings as a single person."

"One came back as soon as she knew something had happened to her wife, and came to the hospital to watch after she got off the plane. The other just woke up and didn't forget to ask about her husband's work. You are so affectionate, it makes me want to find a boyfriend."

Fang Nuan joked a few words and stood up and picked up her backpack: "I don't have anything to do here. I still have class today, so I'll leave first. Don't disturb the warm morning theater of your young couple."

Before Gu Xi and Xiao Yan could ask to keep her, she had already opened the door and walked out. Before leaving, she did not forget to say: "Remember to call me directly if you need anything."

The door was closed, only she and Xiao Yan were left in the room, Gu Xi felt a little embarrassed.

Although she pretended to be very intimate on the surface, in fact she and Xiao Yan didn't get along for a long time. Seriously, it didn't even last a day. Now that she wanted to bring up a topic, she didn't know what to say.

"Is there nothing you want to tell me?" Xiao Yan suddenly broke the awkward atmosphere in the room.

"Uh," Gu Xi thought for a while before speaking, but his tone was still a little stiff, "Just now Fang Nuan said that you have been in the hospital since you rushed back, do you want to go back and have a rest first?"

Xiao Yan glanced at her, got up and walked to the door to lock the door: "I'm worried about leaving you here alone."

"It's okay, I..." Before she finished speaking, Xiao Yan had already walked over, pulled away the pillow behind her, and straightly laid the bed flat.

Gu Xi's eyes widened, but before he could react, Xiao Yan had already taken off his shoes and lifted the quilt to lie beside her, stretched out his arms and pulled her into his arms naturally.

"Xiao, Mr. Xiao!" Gu Xi's words were a little awkward.

Xiao Yan's arms tightened, and he exerted a little force: "What do you call me?"

"...Xiao Yan."

Only then did he hum with satisfaction, and closed his eyes: "I'm tired, sleep with me for a while."

"Can……"

Xiao Yan held her in his arms, and ordered directly and domineeringly: "Sleep."
