Chapter 120 - 120: Can You Be a Little More Reasoning?
Li Zhenting stood still.
There was only one big bed. Shen Ning had to sleep with the child, so he had no place to sleep.
Shen Ning couldn’t be bothered with him. He couldn’t possibly stand there all night.
She had been working hard these past few days and was really too tired.
She fell asleep the moment she closed her eyes.
It started to rain outside in the middle of the night, accompanied by lightning and thunder.
In the darkness, Shen Ning suddenly saw herself falling into an unfathomably deep sea, surrounded by the deafening roar of waves. Her brain throbbed with pain, and her ears, eyes, and nose were filled with water.
Suffocation, pain, discomfort, fear!
Her five fingers clenched and stretched, her breath grew shallower.
Drowning…
Accompanied by a deafening crash, she felt like she was propelled into the sky, surrounded by blinding light that made it impossible to open her eyes.
She exhaled and passed out, tears streaming down her face.
In the midst of it all, she clung tightly to a piece of wood, holding on for dear life, never letting go…
The sunlight illuminated every corner of the hospital room.
Shen Ning abruptly opened her eyes.
“All!” She screamed in surprise. There was a man next to her, and she and Ding Ding were sleeping in this man’s embrace.
Li Zhenting!
What was going on here?
She quickly sat up.
“How did you end up here? Trying to take advantage of me?” Shen Ning was furious, and she raised her fist to strike him.
Li Zhenting frowned, caught her fist, and sat up, annoyed. “Could you be a bit reasonable? Last night, you were the one holding onto my hand and wouldn’t let go. I pitied you and felt sorry for you, so I held you.”
Shen Ning was shocked, and her face turned red.
Indeed, there was an extra bed in the hospital room!
“Last night, you cried and made a scene. You kept me up all night. Fortunately, you didn’t wake Ding Ding.” Li Zhenting said coldly, releasing her fist and standing up.
Last night, he had asked a nurse to bring in an extra bed. He had just fallen asleep when he heard the woman in the adjacent bed screaming and shouting. Worried that it would wake his son, he hurried over to take a look. He found the woman with her eyes tightly closed, her face contorted in pain, her mouth wide open as if she was yelling something, and her hands flailing in the air, helpless and in agony.
For a moment, he felt sympathy and reached out to pat her, but she unexpectedly grabbed his hand and didn’t let go.
He had no choice but to lie down beside her. But as soon as he lay down, she wriggled her way into his arms…
Shen Ning’s face went from red to pale.
Last night, she must have had that terrible nightmare again!
Whenever she was under extreme stress or experienced a shock, she would have that horrifying nightmare—the moment she was pushed into the sea six years ago.
Could it be that he was the piece of wood she had been tightly clinging to in her dream?
She lowered her head and walked towards the door.
“Where are you going?” Li Zhenting stopped her.
“Mr. Li, 1 have to go back to work at Gu Qi. I’ll leave Ding Ding to you. 1’11 come over to accompany him for three hours after work.”Shen Ning replied in a low voice.
“No, you have to stay here for the next few days.”Li Zhenting’s face darkened.
“But 1 still have to go to work…” Of course, Shen Ning did not want to leave Ding Ding. The child was so sick that it was time for maternal love. However, Gu Qi’s funds were tight. She had to get the product on the market as soon as possible.
Li Zhenting’s eyes were cold.” Ding Ding is already so sick. He hasn’t eaten for a few days. He’s sick because of you. How can you bear to leave him in the hospital like this?”
These words hit the softest and most painful part of Shen Ning’s heart!
Her face turned pale. She lowered her head and pondered for a while before walking back. She sat down beside the child and gently held his small hand. Forget it, it didn’t matter if it was a day or two! This was the time when the child needed her the most. She really couldn’t leave. After all, kinship was priceless!
Li Zhenting’s lips curled up slightly and he walked out..
