C16 Bitterness

"Are your legs uncomfortable? Do you want to change your posture? " Nannuan was afraid that he would not feel comfortable sitting in that position, so Gu Zizhan shook his head. His dark and deep eyes never left her face.

"If you are not comfortable, tell me, okay?"

She smiled gently and passed the water and tissue to him.

Gu Zizhan frowned slightly and his eyes flashed with guilt. "Why are you so good to me?"

Nannuan was slightly stunned and then smiled bitterly, "You are my husband. This is what I should do."

She loved him, so she was willing to do anything for him. But at that moment, she didn't want to say anything about her love for him. After all, they were about to end. If she said love now, it would only make things worse for each other.

Afraid that he would ask something else, Nannuan smiled and changed the topic, "Oh right, how did you get into a car accident?"

With that, the smile on Gu Zizhan's face cooled down. He bitterly pursed his lips, "Because... because I regret doing that to you, and then I drank."

"Because of me?"

Nannuan's heart moved. She found it hard to believe that he would drink because of her. What happened next made her even more surprised. He held her hand and said in a deep voice, "Nannuan, I'm sorry."

"I should not have treated you that way."

"You..." All the grievances in her heart had disappeared because of his apology. She couldn't even believe that one day, Gu Zizhan would say those three words to her.

She was afraid to cry in front of him, so she could only withdraw her hand and smile, "I'll help you wash some fruits. The fruits that I bought today are very fresh."

After saying this, she did not care whether he wanted to eat or not. She turned around and walked to the bathroom.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Immediately after, Gu Zizhan's mother, Zhang Lee, pushed open the door and walked in with a pile of tonics. "Where's your wife?"

"She's washing fruits."

Zhang Lee looked in the direction of the bathroom and confirmed that the sound of water splashing could not be heard. She then sat by the bed and said in a low voice, "I'm warning you, this time you should cut that woman off as soon as possible. That kind of thing. A woman who abandoned you for money, what's there to be reluctant about? Besides, look at yourself, you are now lying here... Who is taking care of you? What about that woman? You keep telling me that she is kind and that she loves you... Zizhan. Ah, if she loved you, she would be here to take care of you. It's her, not Nannuan!"

" I'm warning you, Nannuan is such an outstanding girl. Don't let her down. I don't care if you have reached that stage with that woman, but this matter must be settled! "

In the bathroom.

Nannuan was about to come out, but when she heard these words, her heart was instantly flooded with bitterness.

It turned out that Granny also knew about the existence of that woman. For the past month, only she foolishly thought that his personality was cold, so she tried every means possible to change her attitude and try to please him. Gradually, she was about to lose herself...

Nannuan took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the bitterness in her heart. Shen Nannuan actually thought of leaving and did not want to pursue the past...

Zhang Lee who was outside also seemed to have noticed the silence in the washroom and immediately shut her mouth. Only then did Nannuan open the door and walk out with a smile on her face, "Mom, you are here."

"En, I came to see Zizhan."

Zhang Lee smiled and went forward to pull Nannuan's hand and smiled knowingly, "Nannuan, I am afraid that you will have to work hard during this period of time."

"This is what I should do." As long as they had not divorced, she had the obligation to take care of her husband.

"Good child. Mom knows what you are thinking. You two stay here. Mom still has things to do, so she won't stay here. Call me if you need anything later, understand?"

Nannuan smiled and tried not to reveal her true feelings. She smiled and watched Zhang Lee leave. She handed the fruit to Gu Zizhan. "I only took a day off. Why don't we hire a nurse? I'll come back to take care of you when I get off work."

Gu Zizhan looked at the bitterness that flashed across her eyes and felt a trace of apology in his heart. He could only nod his head.

Time flew by quickly.

In this one month's time, Nannuan would come to the hospital to take care of Gu Zizhan after work every day. There was only one bed in the ward. At first, Nannuan wanted to sleep on the sofa. But Gu Zizhan insisted on not agreeing. The two of them squeezed on the small bed. Nannuan always leaned sideways to sleep on the edge. At first, his legs were not convenient. He could only watch helplessly as she distanced herself from him.

That kind of feeling was very unpleasant.

The bed was clearly very narrow. She was sleeping beside him, but he felt that he was about to lose her. His little wife was slowly moving away from him.

These days, she took care of him very carefully, as long as there was a rest day, she would help him walk in the hospital garden and exercise his legs. Every time she put her arm on her thin shoulder, a faint fragrance would seep into her nose from her hair. It was as if he had left an inerasable mark in his heart for a few moments. He really wanted to kiss her, but every time his actions were overly intimate. She would dodge, and he could clearly feel that her entire body had become stiff.

Could it be that he really did not have any charm towards her?

His wife had a cold feeling towards him, could this be considered as a form of irony?

Or was it that he did not have much attraction to her?
