"But you...you still have to find a way to earn money for me, Zhou Gangxun, you have to support me." Ruan Zhijuan said, and then, without knowing where she got the wet towel, she wiped his face with it. That's how it was portrayed on all the TV shows he watched.
Zhou Gangxun said, "Wife, I just have a bad ear, not a paralysis of my lower body, so you don't need to take care of me."
"Who...who served you? I just saw you...covered in sweat...dirty, it'll definitely affect the doctor's work..." Ruan Zhijuan snorted and wiped even harder. The fan in the waiting room was the kind that was suspended from the ceiling, so Ruan Zhijuan and the others couldn't feel the breeze at all, and they were covered in sweat in no time.
Hmph, he was just practicing what it's like to clean up an old man's excrement and urine.
If he really becomes paralyzed on one side, then I'll have to clean Zhou Gangxun's body. Hmph, that old man is such a hassle.
The scent that had originally belonged to Ruan Zhijuan in Zhou Gangxun's nasal cavity was replaced by a lingering smell of dust and dampness. He asked, "But why does this towel smell like a strange toilet?"
Ruan Zhijuan nodded, her tone innocent and naive, "I took it from the toilet."
Zhou Gangxun: "..."
"Number 013, Zhou Gangxun," the nurse in the consultation room called out as she came out of the room.
"They've called us." Ruan Zhijuan patted Zhou Gangxun on the shoulder.
He followed Zhou Gangxun into the consultation room with the seriousness of a mature adult and stood behind him.
The doctor used professional instruments to examine Zhou Gangxun's ears one by one to check for any problems.
After the examination, the doctor sat back down at the table and began filling out the medical record. He then said to the nurse beside him, "Take the patient to get some spray treatment."
After Zhou Gangxun went for treatment, Ruan Zhijuan blinked and asked the doctor, "Can my husband's ear be cured? Is it serious?"
"Doctor, just tell me what's wrong. I can handle it." Ruan Zhijuan said, and seriously took out her small diary and pen from her pants pocket, and began to seriously prepare to record Zhou Gangxun's condition.
"It's nothing serious, don't worry."
Looking at Ruan Zhijuan's serious face, the doctor explained Zhou Gangxun's condition to him, "Your husband got a fever, which caused inflammation in his throat, resulting in congestion and edema of the Eustachian tube mucosa, which in turn led to conductive hearing loss in the ear, temporary deafness."
He asked, "Is there anything that's been troubling or bothering your husband lately?"
Ruan Zhijuan thought for a moment and spoke up for Zhou Gangxun, "He's taking on a big job and he's on the phone every day, does that count?"
The doctor nodded and instructed, "Go on to try to prevent the patient from experiencing excessive emotional fluctuations."
However, bidding and work do not cause him any emotional fluctuations. Only when he suspects that his wife may be thinking of cheating on him and running away with another man will he feel emotional.
So, this is a result of getting sick from anger.
The doctor made a note in the medical record and then asked, "Does he often stay up late at night?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Zhijuan's eyes widened in surprise, impressed by the doctor's medical skills. She quickly replied, "Yes, yes."
As he spoke, he involuntarily took a small step forward, as if he had met the person in the world who understood him best. His little head nodded in agreement. "He doesn't sleep at all, doctor."
"I don't sleep from 9 or 10 pm until 3 or 4 am."
Not only does he not sleep, but he also keeps eating.
It made him feel strange; his heart felt warm and itchy, like a scab had fallen off and new flesh was growing.
The doctor listened and said, "Then you'll need to adjust your schedule, ensure you get enough sleep, and avoid staying up late to prevent worsening your ear condition."
Ruan Zhijuan nodded firmly with a look of certainty, and hummed as she wrote down this sentence in bold and enlarged form: "See? Zhou Gangxun, the doctor said not to stay up late, hehehehe."
"I'll prescribe some medications for him first, and see how it goes. He should improve in about three days, and his hearing should gradually recover in less than a week." The doctor handed the prescription to Ruan Zhijuan. "Your husband should be almost finished with his physical therapy. Just go downstairs to pick up the medication."
Ruan Zhijuan left the clinic with the prescription and ran into Zhou Gangxun, who had just finished his treatment. They went downstairs together to get the medicine.
As I was about to leave and go home after retrieving my item, I saw a familiar news report playing on the TV in the lobby: "The highly publicized case of Director Qi's attempted rape and murder was heard at the Fucheng Court this morning at 9:00 AM. With conclusive evidence, Qi's actions constitute the crime of intentional homicide."
However, police investigations revealed that this was not Qi's first offense...
"In the past few days, Ji and Su, friends of the victim Bai, have collected testimonies and information from multiple victims. Qi's actions were heinous and his methods cruel, and he was ultimately sentenced to death, to be carried out within seven days..."
Ruan Zhijuan watched the television quietly, her hands clasped together. Her heart ached, and her eyes stung. "Hmph, bad people deserve to be punished."
As he was thinking this, he suddenly felt a cool and sweet sensation on his lips, which were pursed as if he were about to cry.
Ruan Zhijuan looked down and saw a box containing four scoops of chocolate ice cream, topped with chocolate sauce and chocolate chips... Hmph.
"Hold on tight, wife," Zhou Gangxun said, pulling Ruan Zhijuan into his arms and walking home at a leisurely pace.
……
It's 10 PM in the bedroom.
"Zhou Gangxun..." Ruan Zhijuan tilted her head back, her hand half-closed to her mouth as if whispering, and leaned close to Zhou Gangxun's ear, "I want to talk to you..."
After a day of observation, Ruan Zhijuan discovered that, probably due to his illness, Zhou Gangxun was deaf and spoke less than usual. Of course, this also gave him more reasons not to listen to what he said.
So he could only whisper in Zhou Gangxun's ear, and his lips had to touch Zhou Gangxun's lips one by one, so that Zhou Gangxun could hear him, because Zhou Gangxun was teaching him what kind of bone conduction was.
Although this made Ruan Zhijuan feel like she was being bullied again, Zhou Gangxun's ears really couldn't hear her unless she got close.
"Hmm?" Zhou Gangxun heard the voice and turned his head to look at Ruan Zhijuan. When speaking, you have to look at the person speaking, but since your eyes are in front of your ears, you have to move your ears away if you want to look at Ruan Zhijuan.
As a result, Zhou Gangxun, who had hearing problems, could no longer hear Ruan Zhijuan speaking.
Ruan Zhijuan could only move over as well, pressing her ear against Zhou Gangxun's again, "We should go to sleep..."
"It's already ten o'clock..." Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Gangxun interrupted him again, turning to look at him with slightly narrowed eyes, asking in a puzzled tone, "Hmm?"
Why does Zhou Gangxun insist on watching him do this?! It forces him to whisper in Zhou Gangxun's ear every time he wants to speak.
Ruan Zhijuan had no choice but to sway and move over again. His flesh was in Zhou Gangxun's hands, and he still had to keep running after him. Humph, Zhou Gangxun is a bastard.
"We've almost finished eating today..."
This time, Zhou Gangxun didn't turn his head to look at him, letting Ruan Zhijuan finish speaking. Then, he made a soft "hmm" sound in his throat, and then, as if he couldn't hear anything, buried his face back into him, completely burying it.
He's pretending to be dead again.
"...Sigh." Ruan Zhijuan felt that Zhou Gangxun should not get sick in the future, because he would "suffer" if he got sick.
May Goddess Mimi bless him with good health, free from illness and pain, sob sob sob.
