In the end, Liu Ying continued to live in Xishan Villa, and Li Man went to the hospital after dinner.

Shen Muting had just woken up, and he was still a little dazed, with pain everywhere in his body.

"Mom, why is it you?" Shen Muting opened his eyes and saw clearly that the person sitting beside the hospital bed was Tang Wanyin, and his eyes immediately looked around for Li Man.

"Stop looking. I asked her to go back to stay with her grandma. How do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

"I'm fine." Shen Muting responded lightly and said nothing more. He was a man of few words.

Tang Wanyin accompanied him, and not long after, Li Man walked in.

When Shen Muting saw her, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Tang Wanyi noticed her son's reaction and had a brief chat with Li Man. She told her to rest well at night and let the nurse take care of Shen Muting, so as not to tire herself.

After saying that, Tang Wanyin did not stay as a light bulb and left the hospital wisely.

In the intensive care unit, only Shen Muting and Li Man were left.

Shen Muting said in a hoarse voice, "I thought you were angry and wouldn't take care of me."

Li Man looked at him and said, "No, the doctor said you need to rest. Stop thinking so much. Recuperate well. There are still many things waiting for you to deal with."

"Have you visited grandma? Is she okay?"

Li Man nodded, "Well, grandma is in Xishan Villa, and the servants take good care of her. Originally, I wanted to take grandma to Lanwan, Cambridge, but I was afraid that your eldest aunt and your third uncle's family would cause trouble."

"Well, you did the right thing. Where is Shen Congqing?"

Shen Muting stopped calling him uncle.

He almost killed him, and now that the situation was over, the superficial peace no longer needed to be maintained.

"Master Xu was responsible for settling him. Zhou Qinfang and Shen Congyu's family both went to make trouble. They also came to me, but I sent them away with the marriage certificate. I gave them the marriage certificate and told them about our marriage. It was ineffective, and they had no choice but to leave angrily.”

Shen Muting raised his hand and touched Li Man's face, "What about you?"

Li Man raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong with me?"

"are you mad?"

The man's deep eyes were like an ancient pool, unfathomable and impossible to fathom.

Li Man met his gaze, and the two looked at each other for a few seconds before Li Man spoke slowly, "I'm angry too, but I can understand what you did. You are in a high position, and you can only do it with caution." Sit firmly as the head of the Shen family."

"that's it?"

Shen Muting stared at Li Man motionlessly, slightly narrowing his long, narrow, deep and sharp black eyes.

"that is it."

Neither of them spoke anymore. In the huge space, apart from the sound of the vital sign detection equipment, there was only the sound of each other's breathing.

After a while, Li Man smiled slightly and said playfully, "Why, I understand you and you are still not happy? You are lying in the intensive care unit now. Even if I want to make trouble with you, it can't be now."

Shen Muting pinched her cheek without much force, "Then I need to recover from my injury quickly."

Li Man slapped his hand away.

She didn't use much strength, but Shen Muting hissed in pain and frowned. She didn't know whether it was real pain or just pretending.

Li Man said nervously, "Did it hurt you?"

Li Man's apricot eyes shone with a hint of worry.

He had been in the special forces for a period of time and had fought in a hail of bullets. He considered himself to have nothing to do with squeamishness. But at this moment, facing the woman's gaze, Shen Muting nodded inexplicably, "Yeah, it hurts."

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it. I didn't use much strength. Maybe my hands were stronger because I had been working, so I didn't strike lightly or hard. Do you want me to call the doctor for you?"

Shen Muting shook his head, suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth, and said meaningfully, "No need to call the doctor, just kiss me and it will stop the pain."

"..."

Li Man looked at Shen Muting in disbelief, almost suspecting that he was hallucinating. His face was extremely cold and pale due to excessive blood loss, and his facial lines still looked three-dimensional and sculptured.

"What, you don't want to?" Shen Muting looked yearning.

Li Man raised his eyebrows, "Stop it, if a kiss can stop the pain, then why do you need the doctor to ask for narcotics and painkillers?"

"Kissing can indeed relieve pain," Shen Muting explained seriously. "From a normal physiological point of view, it has no pain relief effect. Kissing cannot replace anesthetics and analgesics, but it can divert attention and have a psychological effect. It has an indirect analgesic effect.”

Li Man looked at him speechlessly, "I'm exhausted. It seems that you are recovering well. Maybe you can be transferred to the general ward tomorrow."

"Since you don't want to kiss me, then give me some water. I'm thirsty and my throat is terribly dry. I want to drink some water."

"Okay, wait a moment." Li Man immediately stood up and poured half a cup of warm water and fed him little by little with a spoon.

After drinking less than half a glass of water, Shen Muting felt that his throat was much better. Thinking of the day of the accident, he asked, "You took grandma away, how could you contact Shen Lu and come back with him to save me? Yours Has the mobile phone card been destroyed by Shen Congqing?"

Li Man briefly told Shen Muting what happened that day, half truth and half lie.

She said that she went to Boyuan to ask for Shen Lu's contact information and remembered his mobile phone number. After leaving the factory, she took her grandma away, stopped a car on the roadside, and borrowed someone else's mobile phone to call Shen Lu. Ask for help.

He never mentioned the Star Alliance cell phone.

Nowadays, smartphones are all used, and most people simply don’t associate that thick and big thing with a mobile phone. It is indeed not a simple mobile phone, but equivalent to a microcomputer.

Shen Muting was surprised, "Have you remembered Shen Lu's mobile phone number?"

"Well, 13XXXXXXXXX." Li Man couldn't forget what he saw and blurted out Shen Lu's mobile phone number.

Shen Muting was not sure whether this number was correct. Although Shen Lu was his special assistant, he had set up shortcut keys and had never memorized Shen Lu's mobile phone number.

After giving Shen Lu's mobile phone number, Li Man looked at him steadily, raised his eyebrows subtly, and laughed after a moment, "You don't still suspect that Shen Congqing and I are working together to deceive your trust, right?"

If that was the case, then she had really underestimated his suspicion.

Shen Muting raised the corners of his lips, raised his hand and held Li Man's hand, "I didn't doubt you, I just didn't expect my wife to be so smart and astute."

Li Man held her face in the shape of a sunflower and smiled sweetly, "Now do you feel that being able to marry such a beautiful, virtuous and smart wife like me is a blessing earned over many lifetimes? Do you feel that you have earned it?"

Shen Muting looked at her, thinking that she was like this when they first got the certificate and lived together. The tip of his heart seemed to be twitched hard by an invisible feather. A small electric current spread along his nerves. He turned slightly sideways. , put his arms around Li Man's waist, and his voice was magnetic, low and sinister, "Well, you're right, I did make money."
