C38 Fiancée

That was what Lin Yewen saw when he came in.

He was stunned for a moment before suddenly realizing something. He said excitedly, "Little Xiu, you finally..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the person who was sleeping soundly suddenly frowned. Lin Xiu also frowned and looked deeply at Lin Yewen. There was a hint of complaint in his eyes.

Lin Ye Wen shut his mouth sensibly and put the food he bought on the table. Because of his excitement, he was at a loss as to what to do. He whispered to Lin Xiu, "Daddy, go buy another serving, go buy another serving. Little Xiu, what do you want to eat? Daddy will go and buy it immediately."

Lin Xiu only shook his head lightly and continued to look at Xia Jing gently.

Looking at his son's infatuated look, Lin Ye Wen laughed and scolded him, "You stinking brat, how can you still have daddy in your eyes? You still have a long life ahead of you. You will get tired of it."

Lin Xiu looked up at him and then lowered his head. He did not understand the meaning behind her words.

Xia Jing was finally woken up. Rather than saying that she was woken up by Lin Ye Wen's voice, it was more appropriate to say that she was woken up by the fragrance of the dishes. When she woke up, she sniffed and followed the fragrance to see Lin Ye Wen. She greeted him with a smile, "Uncle Lin, you're back."

"Have you slept well?" An extremely gentle voice suddenly sounded beside her ears. Under the warm sunlight, the person's smile was exceptionally bright, and the corners of his eyes and the tips of his eyebrows were filled with gentleness.

Xia Jing looked at him in a daze. After a long while, she threw herself on the bed excitedly. "Brother Lin Xiu, you're finally awake."

"Why does this child still like to call me brother as he did when he was young? The two of you are not brother and sister. Xiao Jing, don't call me brother anymore. Call this brat Xiu, Xiu, Xiu, and so on. Just don't call me brother." Lin Ye Wen's words made Xia Jing's face turn completely red. She looked at Lin Xiu in embarrassment, wanting him to say a few words for her.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiu only smiled and said, "My dad is right." After pausing for a moment, he continued, "If you really feel that you can't call me Xiu or anything else, you can just call me Lin Xiu. As long as you remove your brother."

Actually, he had always cared about this nickname. He had never treated her as his sister, nor did he want her to treat him as her brother.

Lin Ye Wen smiled with satisfaction. As he smiled, his eyes turned red, and he wiped away his tears. "You're finally awake. It's good that you're awake. It's good that you're awake."

"Thank you for worrying." Lin Xiu looked at him apologetically, then turned his gaze to Xia Jing. It was as if he could never get enough of her. Or perhaps, he felt that being able to see every inch of her time was precious. He had to grasp it well.

Xia Jing, on the other hand, looked at Lin Ye Wen with a complicated expression on her face. Lin Ye Wen's expression was also a little strange.

Lin Xiu was a smart person. He immediately asked, "Is my illness very serious?"

Even if it was really so serious that he would not live for more than a few days, as long as she was by his side in the last few days, he would have no more regrets in his life.

Sometimes, it would be better to die than to live. At least, it would not hurt if he died. He would not feel pain if he could not see the woman he loved with another man.

"No, no. Don't think too much about it, Xiao Xiu. Your illness is fine. It's not a big problem. It's just..." Lin Ye Wen hesitated and refused to say anything. Lin Xiu was not in a hurry. He looked at Xia Jing with a gentle smile. "Have you been with me for the past few days?"

He seemed to be able to feel her. Therefore, he had been trying his best to wake up and open his eyes to look at her. His Xiao Jing was here. He couldn't let her worry about him. He had to wake up as soon as possible.

Until he woke up and saw her for the first time, he had never felt so satisfied in his life.

"Of course, you are her... Who else could he be if not with you?" Lin Yewen had been stuttering. When he saw Lin Xiu looking at him, he sighed and told him that his legs might not be able to get off the ground.

Lin Xiu was stunned for a long time. It was only when Lin Yewen mentioned his marriage with Xia Jing that he came back to his senses.

"Married?" He looked at Lin Ye Wen in surprise, and then looked at Xia Jing in disbelief.

Xiao Jing wanted to marry him? Was his Xiao Jing going to marry him?

How was that possible? He must have heard it wrong.

"Yes, Xiao Xiu. Actually, when your Uncle Xia was still alive, he and I had already arranged the marriage between you two. Xiao Jing is your fiancée. When you are discharged from the hospital, Daddy will prepare your wedding. From now on, Xiao Jing will be a member of our Lin family."

Lin Xiu ignored Lin Ye Wen and looked at Xia Jing.

She lowered her head with a depressed expression. Her fingers twisted the corner of her clothes, and she did not say a word. The smile on his face disappeared completely. "Did you mean it? Did my father force you?"

After saying that, he suddenly looked up at Lin Ye Wen with a sharp gaze. "What engagement? Uncle Xia has already passed away. The future of us young people is not up to you to decide."

Lin Ye Wen did not expect him to have such a reaction, and he was so stunned that he could not speak.

He didn't always like Xiao Jing. The reason why he ended up like this was all because of Xiao Jing. He should be happy that he helped him get married to Xiao Jing. Why would he blame him?

"No, Uncle Lin did not force me, Lin Xiu - " She forcefully swallowed back the word'big brother' and explained with a smile, "Not only did Uncle Lin and my father mean it, but it was also my intention. I want to marry you and take care of you for the rest of my life."

Lin Xiu felt that her smile was uglier than crying. His expression became gloomier. "He must have forced you. I don't need you to take care of me. Even if I'm crippled, I can take care of myself by myself. You don't have to listen to him and sacrifice yourself for the rest of your life. I don't need you to sacrifice yourself for the rest of your life."

"I'm talking about you, child, but Xiao Jing has already agreed..."

"Shut up!" Before Lin Ye Wen could finish speaking, Lin Xiu scolded him harshly. "You don't know me at all. You don't need to decide our matters, and it is not up to you to decide."

Lin Xiu had always been filial. His words had broken Lin Ye Wen's heart. "Yes, I am old. I can't control you anymore, and you can't make decisions for your matters. You can be stupid for the rest of your life."

After he finished speaking, he walked out. Xia Jing watched him leave, her face in a mess.

The ward suddenly became strangely quiet. Lin Xiu had never looked at her so seriously before. Xia Jing did not dare to look him in the eye directly. She lowered her head guiltily. "I really don't blame Uncle Lin. It was my idea."

"Where is he?" He stared at her meticulously, not letting go of any change in her expression. The light in Xia Jing's eyes suddenly became exceptionally painful. His heart also tightened. "What's wrong with you?"

With Shen Ruo Bai's personality, she would definitely not let Xiao Jing come to the hospital to take care of him for a few days. Something must have happened.

"We... broke up." Xia Jing almost buried her head on the ground, and tears fell silently. She did not want Lin Xiu to see it.
