Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Well Fought

Shen Qingqing and Zhou Hansheng didn’t schedule any other plans.

Not wanting to be entangled with Jiang Zhixun, Shen Qingqing used that excuse.

After Jiang Zhixun left, Shen Qingqing apologized awkwardly, "Doctor Zhou, if there was any lack of hospitality today, please bear with me."

She was so polite, completely different from how she was in front of Jiang Zhixun.

Zhou Hansheng couldn’t feel happy.

Having witnessed the dynamic between Jiang Zhixun and her, he could clearly sense that even if Shen Qingqing had forgotten Jiang Zhixun, the atmosphere between them was still subtle.

At this moment, he felt very jealous.

Jealous that Jiang Zhixun met Shen Qingqing first.

Jealous of the special treatment she gave him.

Even more jealous that Brother Zhixun married Shen Qingqing, even if he’s now her ex-husband!

In front of Shen Qingqing, Zhou Hansheng could only bury his true feelings deep in his heart.

He showed an understanding smile, "Mr. Jiang didn’t gain anything either. I hope I didn’t leave a bad impression on you and the elders today."

Shen Qingqing: "He deserved it."

Whenever Jiang Zhixun was mentioned, her emotions would fluctuate greatly.

Zhou Hansheng decisively skipped over this topic.

"Miss Shen, are you free? How about we go to the park for a walk?"

After speaking, he added a sentence, "Breathing in more fresh air will naturally improve your mood and help with recovery."

Madam Jiang gave Jiang Zhixun the key, and Shen Qingqing saw it.

She didn’t want to go back and see him.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she agreed to Zhou Hansheng’s proposal.

But she felt a bit uneasy in her heart.

Pressing her lips together, she directly told Zhou Hansheng, "I don’t plan on dating anyone right now."

The illness was one thing.

The most important thing was she felt that living alone was also good.

That feeling of freedom and relaxation, she really liked it.

Zhou Hansheng laughed, "I’m not in a hurry to date either, you know, we medical professionals need to keep improving our skills and enriching our theoretical knowledge. I’m very busy every day, and if I really dated someone, it might be easy to neglect the lady."

He was always so considerate, taking all the issues onto himself.

The more he did that, the heavier Shen Qingqing felt about this affection.

It made her hesitant to accept it easily.

Afraid she couldn’t give equal return, even more fearful of disappointing someone’s true heart.

After walking around the park, Zhou Hansheng said he had something to do at the hospital and planned to take her home.

Whether it was true or not, Shen Qingqing didn’t know.

But Zhou Hansheng grasped boundaries well, never embarrass her, that’s for sure.

"I’m going to the bookstore to look at books, Doctor Zhou, you can go straight back to the hospital."

Zhou Hansheng was a bit worried, "I’ll take you there."

Shen Qingqing laughed in disbelief, "I haven’t forgotten the way."

Zhou Hansheng hesitated for a few seconds, "Okay, then be careful on the road."

Many people ride bicycles to and from work, and if you encounter a reckless one suddenly rushing out of a lane, you might get hurt.

Shen Qingqing was not a child, she could take care of herself.

Parting ways with Zhou Hansheng, she walked straight to her destination.

Passing the supply and sales cooperative, she saw a familiar back and quickly lowered her head to leave.

Just afraid of being entangled by him again.

Jiang Zhixun wanted to cook for Shen Qingqing and was at the supply and sales cooperative buying groceries.

Her health wasn’t good, she needed some supplementation.

Anything beneficial to a lady’s health, Jiang Zhixun bought a bit of all.

Brown sugar, dates, white fungus, eggs...

He also bought two pounds of spareribs to cook broth for Shen Qingqing to drink.

In addition, he bought some daily necessities for Shen Qingqing.

Toilet paper, soap, toothpaste...

Used up all the vouchers he had, Jiang Zhixun finally stopped.

During the New Year, he went home with Shen Qingqing and easily found the house.

The door was locked; Shen Qingqing hadn’t come back yet.

A sour feeling overcame Jiang Zhixun, his mind uncontrollably wondering what they were doing now?

Would Zhou Hansheng try something inappropriate?

The more he thought, the worse he felt, wishing he could go out and bring Shen Qingqing back.

But he knew he couldn’t do that.

Otherwise, Shen Qingqing would dislike him more.

To distract himself, after entering, Jiang Zhixun started cooking.

The house had everything, even a few pounds of grain.

Small bags of rice and white flour.

Shen Qingqing liked to eat pasta, so Zhixun cooked according to her taste.

Kneaded the dough, planning to make noodles.

Pairing with the spareribs soup, adding some vegetables, balancing the meat and vegetables, the nutrition would be quite good.

Before leaving, he planned to boil a bowl of brown sugar and egg for Shen Qingqing as a late-night snack.

Judging by the days, she just had her period a few days ago and needed to replenish her body.

When Shen Qingqing was in the Northwest and got into a car accident, during the days she was lying with a fracture on the hospital bed, Jiang Zhixun changed her sanitary paper, and that’s how he remembered the days.

He could clearly recall how weak she was, and it definitely wouldn’t do without some supplementation.

The coal furnace at home wasn’t lit; Shen Qingqing’s should be burning.

But she wasn’t back, and Jiang Zhixun didn’t dare go in rashly.

He could only go next door to exchange a honeycomb briquette.

The aunt had a good memory, still remembered Jiang Zhixun as Shen Qingqing’s lover, having come here with her before.

Decisively exchanged a honeycomb briquette for him.

As for why he didn’t go home, the aunt didn’t ask much.

Every family has its difficult aspects, it’s the same old story!

Shen Qingqing stayed outside for a long time before returning home.

Just at the staircase entrance, she smelled a strong aroma of meat; the closer to home, the more intense the aroma became.

Jiang Zhixun was about to go out looking for Shen Qingqing, when he ran into her in the hallway.

Naturally said, "Wash your hands, dinner’s ready."

As if the previous unpleasantness didn’t exist at all.

Shen Qingqing didn’t know how there could be someone so shameless in the world.

As if completely tone-deaf.

She opened the door herself, wanting to go home.

Jiang Zhixun quickly pressed against the door panel, "Are you coming here to eat, or should I bring the food over?"

Shen Qingqing restrained her temper, "I’m not hungry."

"Even if you’re not hungry, you should eat, and I’ve already made it. Wasting food is not a good trait."

Shen Qingqing remained unmoved, "I didn’t ask you to cook for me, since you chose to decide on your own, you should bear the corresponding consequences."

Jiang Zhixun made a sound, "Finish this meal first, give me a lesson, let me bear the consequences next time, okay?"

Shen Qingqing wanted to scold him for being crazy.

If soft doesn’t work, Jiang Zhixun resorts to hard measures.

Suddenly bending down, he hoisted Shen Qingqing up and turned to walk to the opposite door.

Her shout of surprise was drowned out by the sound of the door closing.

"What are you doing! Misbehaving won’t end well!"

Jiang Zhixun was kicked by her a few times.

Didn’t hurt.

But he felt compelled to smack Shen Qingqing’s butt.

"Behave, it’s just dinner, not planning anything else."

Shen Qingqing’s face flushed red with anger.

The place that was slapped felt oddly uncomfortable, to the extreme.

Just landing, she slapped Jiang Zhixun in the face.

With a "slap", it was especially loud.

"You misbehavor!"

Jiang Zhixun touched his face, "Well done! Want to slap the other side for symmetry?"

Shen Qingqing was almost moved to tears with anger, "Are you out of your mind!"

"Maybe."

Jiang Zhixun approached her, "Can you check for me?"
