“You were about to say it, so I’ll take it that you’ve already said it.” He sounded regretful. “Unfortunately, if you hadn’t suddenly laid down and noticed that my heartbeat was abnormal, I might have heard it.”

His body could pretend to be unconscious and not move, but his heart was beyond his control.

Li Yinian bit her lips and felt an unprecedented surge of emotions. There was anger, confusion, and some absurdity, but she had to admit it. At the same time, there were some indescribable emotions that made her not dare to be honest with her feelings.

“Qiao Yanze, even if you don’t mind, it’s pointless.” She bit her lip. “Please… let go.”

“Will you feel disgusted or repulsed if I hug you like this?” He looked at her steadily.

Li Yinian’s lips moved. She knew that she should say yes, but she couldn’t nod.

“That’s right.” Qiao Yanze chuckled. “So, no matter what our relationship is, it won’t change anything. We can’t have children.”

“Qiao Yanze, you’re crazy!” She couldn’t believe that this man was really thinking about this possibility.

“I’m not crazy. In fact, I’m very calm,” he said word by word. “After the car accident last night, it took me a few seconds to faint. You know, at that time, I went through a series of flashbacks. I remembered everything in my life, everyone who mattes to me. Then, I realized… the person who matters to me the most is you. At that time, I made up my mind not to let you go again if I survived.”

Li Yinian was speechless. She could only shake her head.

“No one will know. As for my mother… She won’t take the initiative to tell us this secret.” Qiao Yanze’s tone was very calm. “No one can stop us.”

Li Yinian was so furious that she couldn’t care less about the man’s injuries. She put her hands on the man’s chest and struggled out of his arms. The backlash made her stagger a few steps back before she could stabilize herself.

Qiao Yanze’s expression changed and he reached out to grab her, but he still missed. However, most of his body was brought out of the bed because of this action. The violent action pulled at his wound and he groaned heavily.

This time, the look of agony on his face was real.

Li Yinian’s hands trembled. She instinctively wanted to go forward to check on him, but she held back.

“I’ll call the doctor for you,” She looked down and said before turning around and walking out of the ward.

Qiao Yanze looked at her back view with a pained expression. After a while, he took a deep breath and revealed a complicated smile.

…

Sun Ye and Qin Hongyu were outside the ward.

“How is he?” Qin Hongyu walked forward and asked.

Sun Ye was still standing at the side, looking a little guilty. Li Yinian knew that he must have known that Qiao Yanze had woken up.

However, it was not the time to pursue this matter now.

In fact, her mind was still in a mess. Her racing heart made it impossible for her to think properly.

However, she was certain of one thing… Qiao Yanze must be crazy.

She forced a smile. “He’s awake… Oh right, call the doctor.”

She said the last sentence to Sun Ye.

Sun Ye did not dare to ask the reason. He turned around and walked towards the doctor’s office.
