Marry first, love later: Mr. Qin loves his young wife alone

Chapter 178 Belated Tenderness

Cheng Gang quickly sat up from the bed.

"Can I come in please?"

A gentle and familiar woman's voice came into Cheng Gang's ears.

Huh?

This voice sounds familiar?

It didn't seem like a nurse's voice, but rather...

"Come in." Cheng Gang said calmly.

Hearing this, the woman opened the office door and walked in.

It was indeed her, the woman he had been thinking about.

Cheng Gang asked in confusion, "Nian Wan, why did you come here so suddenly? It's Chinese New Year, shouldn't you be at home with your family?"

Xu Nianwan smiled and said, "I'm here to bring you some dumplings."

As she spoke, she took the lunch box out of the thermal bag and placed it neatly on the table.

"Eat it while it's hot. It's freshly wrapped and won't taste good if it gets cold."

Cheng Gang: "Is this specially packed for me?"

Xu Nianwan moved a stool and sat in front of Cheng Gang.

"Doctors always prioritize saving lives. They're often so busy that they don't even have time for Chinese New Year. I know you're a workaholic, so you'll definitely be spending Chinese New Year in the hospital."

"It's definitely not warm in this hospital during the New Year, so I made some dumplings and sent them to you."

When Cheng Gang heard Xu Nianwan's words, he was so moved that he almost cried. He had been waiting for this belated tenderness for so many years!

In the past, he never dared to dream of such a thing, never dared to think that his sweetheart would come back and make dumplings for him during the Chinese New Year.

He was so happy; this meal tasted better than any other he had ever eaten.

"Nian Wan, thank you, thank you for remembering me."

Xu Nianwan: "Cheng Gang, I should be thanking you. It was you who saved Taotao and gave me hope again."

Cheng Gang picked up a dumpling with chopsticks, blew on it, and then put the dumpling into his mouth.

"This is...this is my favorite pork and shrimp dumplings."

Even after so many years, she still remembered her preferences without thinking about them.

Seeing Cheng Gang eating happily, Xu Nianwan was also very happy. "How does it taste? How salty is it?"

Cheng Gang smiled and nodded, still chewing the dumplings in his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's delicious, really delicious. This is the most delicious meal I have had in all these years."

"If it tastes good, eat more. If you like it, I'll make it for you often."

Xu Nianwan wiped the soup from the corner of his mouth with a tissue.

Cheng Gang hadn't had time to eat dinner tonight because of the surgery he was having. Firstly, he was really hungry, and secondly, this belated tenderness really made him feel warm inside, so he quickly finished all the dumplings in the lunch box.

"Oh, eat slowly and be careful not to choke." Xu Nianwan poured a glass of water for Cheng Gang and placed it next to him.

Cheng Gang: "These dumplings are so delicious. I haven't eaten anything this delicious in years."

Looking at Cheng Gang wolfing down his food, Xu Nianwan felt both happy and anxious. She was happy that Cheng Gang liked the dumplings she made so much, but she was anxious because she was afraid that he would choke because he ate too fast.

"Cheng Gang... slow down..."

Before I could finish the words that were on my lips, the nurse came running over in a hurry.

"Director Cheng, an emergency patient has just been sent in."

Cheng Gang put down his chopsticks, took a sip of water, and said to Xu Nianwan: "Nianwan, I'll go over and see what's going on. Wait for me to come back."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Xu Nianwan's response, he took his equipment and walked out of the office.

Cheng Gang was gone for several hours. By the time he finished dealing with the patient's affairs, it was already dawn.

He looked out the window at the sky that was about to break dawn and stretched.

Because he didn't get enough rest for the night, he had very dark circles under his eyes.

Suddenly remembering something, he immediately walked quickly towards his office.

This time, she did not break her promise, she was really waiting for herself.

When Cheng Gang pushed open the door, Xu Nianwan was already asleep on the table.

Cheng Gang walked in quietly, came in front of her, and looked carefully at her sleeping appearance.

She is still so beautiful even when she is asleep, with fair skin, three-dimensional facial features, and every pore on her face is breathing fresh air.

Although her pair of charming eyes were closed at this moment, it did not affect her beauty at all.

Her small and straight nose added to her beauty, and her cherry lips looked very sexy. When Cheng Gang saw this, he couldn't help but want to kiss her secretly.

How Cheng Gang wished that time would stop at this moment, so that he could just look at her carefully, seeing how quiet and beautiful she was.

At this moment, he felt that they had returned to that summer, what a pure love, what a perfect match for each other!

Suddenly, Xu Nianwan's eyelids moved slightly.

Is this about to wake up?

Cheng Gang quickly pulled his gaze back and kept a certain distance from her.

Xu Nianwan slowly opened her eyes, raised her head, turned her neck, and then shook her arms.

Cheng Gang: "Nian Wan, are you awake?"

Xu Nianwan: "Well, what time is it now? Are you just done?"

Cheng Gang took out his phone and checked the time: "It's past seven in the morning. I just finished a very complicated operation. Fortunately, the patient is fine now."

"Um... have you been waiting for me here all night?"

Xu Nianwan nodded.

"Yeah, I said I'd wait for you to come back. How could I break my promise?"

When Cheng Gang heard this, he felt warm in his heart. It turned out that she still cared about him.

"Nianwan, have you found a job?"

Xu Nianwan: "I found it. It's an administrative position in the hospital. All I have to do every day is look at the computer in the hospital."

Cheng Gang: "You are a professional. It's a waste of your talent to sit in an office. Why don't you come to my hospital?"

Xu Nianwan was stunned for a moment, then said, "Your hospital is the best hospital in the entire capital. Doctors who are much better than me are trying their best to get in. How can I compete with them?"

Cheng Gang placed his hands on Xu Nianwan's shoulders and said to her seriously:

"I'm the director of Dakang Hospital. You can come anytime you want. I have the final say in this hospital!"

Xu Nianwan looked at his serious expression and knew that Cheng Gang was sincere in what he said and was not just talking to her.

"Okay, I understand. Let me think about it and tell you the answer when I'm done."

Cheng Gang: "Okay, I'll wait for your reply."

Xu Nianwan stood up from the stool and said with a smile, "I will think about what you said carefully. I have to go back to see Taotao. You can take care of your own things."

Cheng Gang: "Yeah, think about it carefully. I still have to be on duty, so I won't take you home. Be careful on the road and stay safe."
