    Chapter 5.2✿

    “…In the end, how many days have you guys not seen each other?” The voice that sounded from the other end of the phone was Mo Chuan Sen’s mellow voice, full of concern.

    Holding the wireless microphone, Mo Chuan Ya was lying on the sofa, complaining to her brother who was far away across the ocean in the United States.

    “It’s been four or five days! There was a series of car accidents on the highway and the injured were sent to the ‘He’en Hospital’, which was overflowing with people. He’s been too busy to go home, and I’ve been too embarrassed to go to the hospital to look for him.”

    “I expected this to happen.” Mo Chuan Sen was worried about his sister. “What’s the difference between you two not seeing each other every day and not getting married? I think we should ask mom to ask the director to reduce Xingren’s on duty time. That way he’ll have more time to come home for you.”

    “Absolutely not!” Mo Chuan Ya suddenly stood up and rejected her brother’s proposal curtly. “How could he possibly allow himself to abuse privileges when Dai Xingren has always hated that kind of people?” She paused and spoke decidedly.

    “And if he did, I would despise him too.”

    “How can you act so ignorantly and accommodate to circumstances? Do you like to be alone in your empty boudoir?”

    “Since I am married to a doctor, I have this kind of awareness.” She declared solemnly. “Right now he can’t afford to be home, but when he becomes an attending doctor in the future, he won’t have to take three shifts in a row and the situation will be much better.”

    “My God, you horrible sister! You don’t have to curse your brother like that, do you?” Mo Chuan Sen pretended to be horrified. She laughed softly.

    Mo Chuan Sen was silent for a moment. “But seriously, I was really shocked at how quickly you two got married. I had thought Dai Xingren to be a man who didn’t intend to get married, just like me.”

    “What do you mean?” Mo Chuan Ya was annoyed, “Do you mean to say that me, your sister, is not worth settling for?”

    “It’s not like that, don’t get your head around it.” Mo Chuan Sen smiled. “There should have been some reason if he decided to not have gotten married.” 

    “What reason?” she asked.

    “Forget it. He’s already married you, hasn’t he?” Mo Chuan Sen avoided giving his sister a definite answer. “Whatever the reason there was, it doesn’t exist anymore.”

    “What the hell!” Mo Chuan Ya spat in annoyance. “Brother, just tell me already!” Suddenly, a feeling of nausea rushed to her throat, and she quickly reached out to cover her lips.

    “What’s wrong?” Mo Chuan Sen asked anxiously, sensing that something was wrong.

    “Nothing, it’s just that I’ve been feeling strange from my stomach the past few days, and sometimes I suddenly feel like throwing up.” 

    “Suddenly feel like throwing up? You’re not pregnant, are you?”

    “Pregnant?” Mo Chuan Ya was stunned, never having thought of this possibility.

    “Go and have it checked! You’re really careless if you don’t even know if you’re pregnant.”

    “Okay, I’ll go and check.”

    “And remember to be careful if you are really pregnant.” Mo Chuan Sen warned in a grave voice. “You’ve had heart surgery as a child, so be extra careful.”

    “Please! That was a long time ago.” Mo Chuan Ya laughed at her brother’s fussiness. “And after my operation, I’m no different from a normal person.”

    “But the doctor also said at that time that if you were to get pregnant, you could easily have a heart failure if anything went wrong, so you must be extra careful.” 

    “I know, brother, don’t worry, I’ll take good care of myself!” 

    She’s all alone, how could he not worry?

    __________

    After a long operation, Dai Xingren wearily walked out of the operating room and looked out through the window glass. Only then did he realise that the wind was blowing strongly outside, and heavy bean sized raindrops fell from time to time. 

    “It looks like the typhoon has made landfall.” The nurse next to him whispered. “Please don’t bring too many disasters this time. I’m afraid the emergency room will be overwhelmed again.” 

    “Yes…” Dai Xingren stared out the window at the storm in a daze. He had been cooped up in the hospital for the past few days, too busy to know that a typhoon had made landfall.

    He unconsciously worried about his wife. Although she was not the kind of girl who was weak and dependent, in such stormy weather, he could not be by her side. Would she… feel a little bit of resentment?

    Dai Xingren pursed his lips in frustration, telling himself that it was useless to think about it. He pulled himself together and went into the dressing room to change out of his surgical gown. Just as he was putting his white coat back on, two doctors walked in, unaware that there were other people in the room, and started talking animatedly.

    “..So that’s what you call a sparrow turning into a phoenix, right?” Hearing one of them grunt disdainfully, Dai Xingren recognised him as a resident physician from the same batch as him, Xiao Li.

    “I should say,if you marry a good wife, you’ll have decreased your struggling time by twenty years.” The other doctor said sarcastically.

    “Not more than twenty years?” Xiao Li was indignant. “I think he is on his way up now, and he’ll definitely be the director of this hospital in the future.”

    Dai Xingren sighed abruptly, realising that the two men were referring to him, and his jaw locked.

    “Why were we so stupid that we forgot how to court the Lady?”

    “Who could know she was the Lady from the Mo family? I thought she was just an ordinary reporter since I saw her coming so often to see Dai Xingren.” 

    “I don’t think he knew who she was, did he? How long do you think he’s been laying this trap?”

    “Coward. Indeed, one may know a person for a long time without understanding his true nature. He usually looks like a man of honour, but in the end, isn’t he still climbing the ladder using a back door?” 

    Two minutes later, the two men finally left but a foul atmosphere continued to linger in the dressing room for a long time.

    Dai Xingren stood there spiritlessly. Ever since he and Chuan Ya had started dating, he had heard a lot of gossip like this, and after they got married, the rumours spread like wildfire and got way out of hand.

    Some people rushed to flatter him while some were secretly jealous.  There were also some people who were flattering him on the surface, but maliciously slandering him behind his back.

    His mentor, Xiong Jianming, advised him to look on the bright side, saying that talented people were already prone to envy. And since he married the daughter of the hospital’s chairman, of course some people would naturally find it unacceptable in their heart. 

    To be honest, he didn’t take it personally. He had been used to people’s thorny words since he was a child. The more they denigrated him, the more arrogant he became in response.

    Even his mentor could not help and often nagged him to not be too stubborn, especially now that his status was different from before. He should know how to be careful with his words and be modest and courteous.

    He had always done things in his own way, but now that he had become the son-in-law of the Mo family, he must learn to take things while regarding human relations…

    “Maybe I shouldn’t have gotten married.” He muttered. In fact, he hadn’t wanted to get married so early and had even thought about being celibate for the rest of his life. Who knew that a man who couldn’t even fall in love properly would get married to such an intelligent and considerate woman. 

    He knew that from the day he got married he had a double responsibility on his shoulders, as a doctor and as a husband, and he couldn’t help but wonder if he could really juggle it all.

    There was always the feeling that one day, he might mess up…

    As he thought about this, a shockwave suddenly surged in Dai Xingren’s chest and he ran impulsively out of the hospital, rushing against the wind and rain with great speed, step by step, reaching his home with difficulty. 

    He had forgotten to carry his keys and had to press the doorbell hard.
