The Wealthy and Influential Fiancé Has the Ability to Read Minds
Chapter 36
It was already nine o’clock in the evening when Ye Shuyan got home. He stood at the door for a while and then went to the study to read the documents. He always felt that something was not right – it was too quiet.
He got up and walked around, but still didn’t hear any sound.
Didn’t she go out to have lunch? Could it be that she was not coming back tonight? It was also possible that the recognition of biological parents wouldn’t be as simple as being a guest. He wondered if she would cry as he found that she seemed to be very easily moved in this regard…
The computer dinged and there was a new email. Ye Shuyan came back to his senses. After realizing what he was thinking, he couldn’t help but rub his forehead. He was indeed… it was so rare to be peaceful, but he still felt not used to it.
There was still no sound coming from downstairs even when Ye Shuyan went to bed, so he thought that Tang Nuan might not be coming back, but he was awakened in the middle of the night.
[Water, so thirsty…]
[No, I need to take medicine…]
The voice sounded very weak.
Ye Shuyan opened his eyes and listened carefully, but there was no movement. He picked up his phone and dialed Tang Nuan’s number, but no one answered.
After thinking about it, he got up and hurriedly put on his clothes, then went downstairs and asked Zhu Bo for the downstairs password.
After ringing the doorbell, Ye Shuyan opened the door when no one answered and went straight to the bedroom.
Then he saw a situation that made it hard to breathe. Tang Nuan fell beside the bed, struggling to reach her phone not far away.
“Tang Nuan!” Ye Shuyan strode forward, only to find that her face was red and her breathing was rapid. He stretched out his hand and found that she was indeed running a high fever and her consciousness was blurred.
Ye Shuyan picked her up, put her on the bed, and quickly called the family doctor.
Thinking of the voice he just heard upstairs, he turned around and went out to pour water. When he looked for the medical kit according to Zhu Bo’s instructions, he couldn’t find it.
He had to go back to the bedroom first, only to find that the medicine box was on her bedside table, with an empty cup and a blister pack with two empty compartments next to it.
Ye Shuyan looked at Tang Nuan on the bed. She was wrapped in the soft blanket, frowning in discomfort. Without her bold and tough outer shell, she looked particularly gentle and fragile. Even when she was sick, she chose to fight alone?
In an instant, Ye Shuyan’s heart ached but couldn’t describe the feeling.
He leaned over and helped the person up, “Tang Nuan, Tang Nuan?”
Tang Nuan vaguely heard someone calling her but struggled to open her eyes. She had to drink water, take medicine, and at least call the doctor…
The next second, the warm water reached her lips, like rain after a long drought. Tang Nuan almost couldn’t wait to swallow it. It wasn’t until she was no longer thirsty that she realized that she seemed to be lying in a warm embrace, with a big palm caressing her back making her very comfortable.
“Do you still want to drink?” The deep voice was gentle. Tang Nuan tried her best to open her eyes, feeling that she was hallucinating, “Ye Shuyan?”
“Yes, it’s me.”
The other party answered her and was particularly gentle. The other party helped her lie down, tucked her in, and said softly, “Be patient for a while, Dr. Zhang will be here soon.”
Seeing that he seemed to be leaving, Tang Nuan didn’t know why she was particularly reluctant and suddenly reached out to grab his hand.
Ye Shuyan was stunned, her soft and delicate hands were scorching hot, and her eyes which were always smiling were now moist, like a small animal afraid of being left behind.
Ye Shuyan leaned over and touched her head, “I’ll get another glass of water and I’ll be back soon.”
When Tang Nuan drank the second glass of water and applied the fever-reducing patch, Dr. Zhang finally arrived.
At this time, Tang Nuan’s consciousness was awake. Ye Shuyan listened to Dr. Zhang’s consultation and found out that she had gone to bed immediately after returning at noon without eating lunch.
Ye Shuyan couldn’t help but frown, she didn’t go to the Tang family? She was obviously very happy when she left, so what happened?
Dr. Zhang took her temperature, put an intravenous drip on her, and said gently, “You’ve been under a lot of pressure lately. Don’t think about anything else. Just take a good rest for a few days and go out to have some fun.”
Tang Nuan looked at Ye Shuyan with some embarrassment. She was doing well these days, it was nothing more than just a big event, so she was a little tired…
Ye Shuyan chuckled and leaned over to touch her head, “Go to sleep, I’ll make arrangements with Dr. Zhang.”
Tang Nuan obediently closed her eyes.
Ye Shuyan took Dr. Zhang to the guest room next door, “Can you please stay here tonight? I’m afraid her fever will return.”
Dr. Zhang naturally had no objection, but was a little surprised. He had been working for Ye Shuyan for almost six years, and this was the first time he saw such a gentle side of this cold-hearted employer.
When he saw the other person enter the kitchen, especially for her, Dr. Zhang looked at the bedroom and thought that he couldn’t believe the rumors that said Ye Shuyan had no feelings for his fiancée.
Just as when Ye Shuyan put the rice into the rice cooker, he heard a weak voice: [Why hasn’t he come back yet? Have he left?]
[He should have left by now. He has to go to work tomorrow.]
[Yes, as long as the doctor is here, it’s fine as long as the doctor is here…]
Ye Shuyan hurriedly cut up the green vegetables and meat for later use, then hurriedly returned to the master bedroom. He saw that Tang Nuan was sleeping restlessly. She seemed to have heard some noise and opened her eyes. Her eyes, which were red and moist due to fever, suddenly brightened up, and said, “You haven’t left yet?”
Ye Shuyan pulled up a chair and sat down by the bed, reaching out to knock on her forehead, “What exactly is my image in your heart? Leaving my sick fiancée to sleep peacefully in the middle of the night?”
Tang Nuan pursed her lips and smiled.
Feeling joy rising from the bottom of his heart, Ye Shuyan couldn’t help smiling when he looked at her, acting like a child at this time.
“Go to sleep.” Ye Shuyan covered her eyes with his big palm, “I’m not leaving.”
His deep voice was so reassuring that Tang Nuan felt as if her heart had been hit by something and felt numb for a moment.
[No wonder in novels and TV dramas, it’s easy to give one’s heart away when one is sick. It’s really hard to resist.]
Ye Shuyan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, she started to be restless with a little energy, “Hurry up and go to sleep. Do you want to be better?”
[It would be nice if you could pat me.]
Ye Shuyan looked at her trembling eyelashes, smiled helplessly, put his hand on the quilt, and patted her gently.
[It feels good to be sick. I wonder if Brother Shuyan can sing lullabies?]
She was the one who wanted a mile when given an inch. Ye Shuyan paused at patting and was about to withdraw his hand but was quickly held down by Tang Nuan and she finally fell asleep obediently.
It could be seen that she was still a little uncomfortable, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.
An hour later, Tang Nuan was awakened by Dr. Zhang who came to pull out the needle.
When Ye Shuyan saw that she was awake, he brought the cooked porridge in and said, “Just make do with eating a little first. We’ll talk more about it when Aunt He comes.”
Tang Nuan was shocked, “Can you cook?”
Ye Shuyan said, “I learned a few simple things during my years studying abroad.”
Tang Nuan was puzzled. With his status, someone should take care of him even while studying abroad, right?
Ye Shuyan held the porridge, “What? Do you want to be fed?”
“No need, no need.” Tang Nuan quickly took it over and ate it herself.
Ye Shuyan laughed. She was very courageous to think about it, but now she pretended again.
Not knowing if it was due to the domineering president’s buff reason, but Tang Nuan thought the porridge was particularly delicious. The corners of Ye Shuyan’s mouth turned up slightly when he saw how delicious she was eating.
After eating the porridge, she felt much better. She went to the bathroom to rinse her mouth and came back. She said to Ye Shuyan embarrassedly, “I’m much better. Brother Shuyan, you should go back to sleep as soon as possible. You still have to go to work tomorrow.”
Ye Shuyan ignored her and took out a thin blanket from the nearby cabinet and placed it on the bed.
Seeing him looking like he was about to sleep here, Tang Nuan was startled, “What are you doing?”
Ye Shuyan lifted the thin blanket and said calmly, “Exercise the fiancé’s rights.”
Tang Nuan’s mind was still a little muddled. She did up her pajamas unconsciously and thought to herself, are you such a scoundrel?
Ye Shuyan raised his eyebrows, “The fiancée has the right to sleep on the bed, but the fiancé doesn’t?”
Tang Nuan smiled coquettishly and got on the bed, thinking to herself, he really holds a grudge.
Ye Shuyan ignored her.
Tang Nuan’s bed was naturally not small. It was more than enough for four people to lie side by side. Two people sleeping on each side would not disturb each other.
However… Ye Shuyan looked at the person rolling over again, sighed helplessly, covered her with the blanket, reached out his arms to hug the person, and didn’t let go again.
But it didn’t last long. With hot breath on his chest, Ye Shuyan opened his eyes and found that the person in his arms was burning again.
Ye Shuyan helped her change the fever-reducing patch. Dr. Zhang came to see her again and gave her medicine. It was already past eight o’clock in the morning when all was done.
Ye Shuyan frowned as he had an important meeting today. He glanced at Tang Nuan, who was drowsy, took out his mobile phone and was about to call Assistant Wen but Tang Nuan’s phone on the bedside table rang first. He walked over and picked it up, it was Tang Yue.
After some thought, he still answered.
Ye Shuyan said, “Tang Nuan is sick and is sleeping.”
“What?” Tang Yue’s tone immediately became anxious, “What’s going on? Is her illness serious? Which hospital are you in?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Shuyan immediately heard a commotion from the other side and hurriedly came to the phone to ask.
Ye Shuyan said, “She has a fever and has been given IV drip and medicine. She’s at home now.”
Tang Yue softened her tone and said, “Are you Ye Shuyan? I am her Big Sister. Could you please open the door for us so we can go over to see her?”
Ye Shuyan looked at Tang Nuan who opened her eyes in confusion, leaned over, and asked, “Your Big Sister wants to come see you, is that okay?”
Tang Nuan frowned in grievance upon hearing this.
“Then you don’t want her to come?”
Tang Nuan immediately blurted out, “I want.”
Ye Shuyan rubbed her head and said into the phone, “Sure.”
There was a burst of cheers on the other end of the phone, and Ye Shuyan thought to himself, what a lively family.
The Tang family arrived very quickly, but Ye Shuyan was still stunned for a moment when the elevator door opened and five people rushed out.
Of course, he has also learned about the situation of the Tang family here. The couple has four children, the eldest son was Tang Yue. In a sense, they have already been in contact with each other. Well, strictly speaking, weren’t they dealt against each other?
The second child, Tang Fei, didn’t seem to have a proper job and liked to stay at home. The third child was Tang Nuan, and the fourth child was Tang Ben, who was studying in a city’s key high school.
He thought that at most Tang Jinxin and Shen Jinhua would come, but he didn’t expect that none of them would fall behind.
Tang Jinxin saw him and quickly thanked him, “Thank you for taking care of our Nuannuan.”
Ye Shuyan said, “I should as I am Tang Nuan’s fiancé.”
Shen Jinhua immediately dragged Tang Jinxin inside, “Where is Nuannuan? Let’s go see her first.”
The people behind agreed and followed inside. Tang Fei and Tang Ben just smiled or nodded as a greeting when passing by Ye Shuyan.
[Ah, is this Sister Nuan’s useless fiancé?]
[I don’t know what Nuannuan is thinking. It’s not right to marry someone with a different background. She will suffer a loss if she marries him. It is better to break off the engagement and find someone who is more considerate.]
[He is quite good-looking, but it’s a pity that he is not a good person.]
Ye Shuyan: …
He has never been so disdained by anyone.
“Hello,” Tang Yue stood in front of him and said softly, “Thank you for taking care of her. Leave the rest to us.”
[Leave it to us and you can go. We won’t need you anymore.]
Ye Shuyan felt that he should have just dropped the phone earlier.
He called Zhu Bo again in front of the Tang family, “Brother Zhu, is the nutritionist coming soon? Nuannuan is sick and can’t eat randomly.”
The Tang family stared angrily at him.
The author has something to say:
President Ye was aroused with a desire for victory. Who would win between the show-off tycoon Tang family and President Ye?
Bahaha 🤣
Tbh. he doesn’t deserve the terrible opinion they have of him. Setting this time’s care for the sick aside he’s been a pretty good fiancé. Their engagement might be loveless but he never let her down. Feelings are ultimately arbitrary but his sense of duty isn’t, so in the years they didn’t know about the switch he’s been a pillar of support.
