Chapter 396: Chapter 396

Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled faintly.

"Don’t be , Brother Song, I’m really fine. I can assure you there’s nothing wrong with my body. As for why I’m in a deep sleep so far, I don’t really know the true reason. But I want to be a doctor, I have a natural passion for medicine. I want to help the world, heal the sick and save lives.

This is probably the happiest thing for me. Brother Song, I know you’re worried about me. But in this world, birth, aging, sickness, and death are hard to control for anyone. Even if I do nothing, just walking out the door, who knows, I might encounter a car accident or some natural or man-made disaster.

A mouthful of food can choke someone to death, but should we do nothing because of this? The only thing I can guarantee to you is that I will definitely protect myself well. I still want to happily spend my life with you.

Our little family is not complete yet. I still want us to have our own children, want to be a good mother, and watch you be a good father. Is that okay, Brother Song?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao was stubborn. To her, being a doctor was once the career she loved most.

Having spent a lifetime in her previous life, asking her to give up everything she once loved now, to become a simple housewife, was not the ideal state she wished to accept.

Nor was it her ideal married life.

She knew that Song Moting cared for her, protected her, but asking her to give up everything for love.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was afraid she couldn’t do it.

She had lived for many years, seen countless unions and separations.

Seen many independent and self-reliant strong women, including the three kids she raised, although the stepchildren weren’t her biological children.

But on them, she saw the true living state that young people of that generation should enjoy.

After being baptized by the most advanced modern education, to ask her to be a traditional housewife.

To Jiang Xiaoxiao, it was completely unacceptable, even under the name of love.

Song Moting sighed. He knew that the most shining light on Jiang Xiaoxiao was when she was in her most comfortable state, doing what she loved most.

That look was bright and confident, her whole person radiating light, making it hard for people’s gaze not to focus on her, difficult to look away.

The state Jiang Xiaoxiao was in when entering the operating room, just before entering, turning back to look at him.

It’s still hard to forget that feeling, a Jiang Xiaoxiao like that seemed to be radiant, looking down on the world.

Such pride and confidence.

His previous request was selfish.

He was really worried about losing Jiang Xiaoxiao, which was why he selfishly asked her to be a housewife.

Yes, if he stripped away the greatest confidence in Jiang Xiaoxiao.

Then he was truly a selfish man.

To love her is to give her all the freedom, to love her is to give her everything, to love her is to become a man who can match her.

And not to take away all the glory on her.

"I understand! Xiaoxiao, I will become the man who can stand shoulder to shoulder with you."

Jiang Xiaoxiao held Song Moting tightly. How could she be so fortunate to meet a man who resonated with her soul, willing to tolerate her, and treat her gently.

Fan Xiuying handed the bowl in her hand to her daughter; she had brought a thermal lunch box.

Her son-in-law called to say her daughter had woken up, and Fan Xiuying immediately brought cooked chicken porridge to visit her daughter.

Her son had already recovered well, and the doctor said he could be discharged in three days.

Now with her daughter awake, it was simply double happiness for their family.

The day her son was discharged was New Year’s Eve.

Fan Xiuying truly hoped with the start of the new year, all the bad things would vanish with the passing of last year’s time and never return again.

The children could continue their lives safely and peacefully.

"Don’t eat too much at once, you suddenly slept for three days and nights without eating anything. Your stomach can’t handle too much, the doctor told me. You have no idea you frightened your husband and us as your parents. Your husband kept watch over you for three days and nights without daring to blink, afraid that the moment he blinked, you’d disappear.

We, as your parents, have never seen someone love you as much as your husband does. Though we, as parents, love you, it feels like we can’t compare to your husband."

Fan Xiuying thought of the exhausting process they went through, after all, Jiang Lei had just undergone surgery, and Jiang Xiaoxiao just fainted, with the doctor saying there was nothing wrong.

Fan Laoshu stayed by Jiang Xiaoxiao’s side but spent more time checking on Jiang Lei.

This wasn’t about favoritism but about naturally worrying more about the most severe condition in such situations.

Song Moting alone stayed by Jiang Xiaoxiao’s side, not moving an inch, not blinking an eye.

Even when Fan Xiuying asked him to eat, he wouldn’t budge.

How worried this child was about Jiang Xiaoxiao.

Jiang Xiaoxiao laughed, "Mom, I know!"

She glanced at Song Moting washing a towel for her, and even though her fingers weren’t dirty, Song Moting meticulously cleaned them bit by bit.

"Moting, you should go home soon to eat and have a good sleep. Now that Xiao Xiao’s awake, I will stay here with her, and you don’t have to worry too much. You haven’t closed your eyes for three days and nights, it’s hard for anyone to bear, you must go rest."

Fan Xiuying looked at her son-in-law with heartache.

This child is such a good kid.

Song Moting nodded, "Mom, I understand, I will definitely listen to what you say. Now that Xiao Xiao is awake, I’m reassured. I’ll certainly go home and sleep well, you don’t have to worry about my health. I’m so young that staying up for three days and nights doesn’t matter to me."

Looking tenderly at Jiang Xiaoxiao eating.

"Even if you’re young, you mustn’t disregard your health. All right, all right, stop staring. If you keep staring, you won’t be able to pull your eyeballs away. Xiao Xiao isn’t running away, your wife is awake. The doctor also said that after observing for one more day, she can be discharged.

You just need to have a good sleep and then come back to pick up Xiao Xiao. Moreover, just look at yourself; with your unkempt beard, unwashed face, and uncombed hair, unshaven beard. Let Xiao Xiao say, can you even meet people in this state?"

Fan Xiuying couldn’t bear to criticize her son-in-law.

But she couldn’t just watch this child exhaust himself here either.

"Brother Song, go back and rest well, then take a shower, change your clothes, shave, and come pick me up to go home."

Jiang Xiaoxiao also knew Song Moting was too tired, and her heart ached as well.

Song Moting nodded, not insisting.

Mother-in-law was right, his current state was indeed too disheveled. Going home and having a good rest, tidying up, was very necessary.

Jiang Xiaoxiao would be discharged tomorrow, and this made him very happy, as they could finally go home.

Plus, with his brother-in-law being discharged in three days, they could finally have a nice New Year.
