Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

Chapter 189 - 189 189 I am her fiancé

?Chapter 189: Chapter 189: I am her fiancé. Chapter 189: Chapter 189: I am her fiancé. “I’m not here to see a doctor,” An Zhiyuan explained with a smile.

“Then what are you here for?” Xiaoli didn’t understand and suddenly had a brainwave; Bai Xiao had mentioned she had a brother in the army.

“Oh, are you perhaps Bai Xiao’s brother Bai Song?”

An Zhiyuan shook his head, “I am Bai Xiao’s fiance, An Zhiyuan.”

“Fiance?” Xiaoli was shocked, for Bai Xiao had never mentioned she had a fiance, let alone one who was an instructor.

“Is she inside?” An Zhiyuan asked.

Xiaoli nodded dumbly.

An Zhiyuan pushed the door and entered.

He closed the door behind him.

She would surely warm up quickly and then be able to start working.

But Bai Xiao knew she was growing colder and shivering more violently. After barely managing to eat a piece of chocolate, she didn’t dare try to drink another cup of hot water for fear of knocking over the tea container. All the muscles in her body ached from being so tensely stiffened. She grabbed the blanket, sat in front of the air conditioner vent, and wrapped herself tightly in the blanket to keep the warm air around her.

Right now, all she cared about was how to get herself warm. Once she was warm, she would worry about other things.

At that moment, she particularly missed An Zhiyuan, who had once made her warm. She was in so much pain she could no longer bear it and longed for him to be with her now. If he were here, he would probably hold her tight, give her warmth, and at least she wouldn’t be alone facing this hypothermic condition.

But it was impossible for An Zhiyuan to appear here.

Then she suddenly looked up and saw An Zhiyuan standing before her.

Was she unable to distinguish whether this was a hallucination or not?

An Zhiyuan didn’t have her address, and she didn’t have his; they had lost contact, which was her realization after coming to the hospital.

She didn’t have the means to find An Zhiyuan, and she regretted not having asked for his address clearly in the first place; now the only man in the world who could potentially be the best “Energy Potion” for her was lost to her.

But now An Zhiyuan was standing right in front of her. It would be strange for her not to think it was a hallucination.

“Bai Xiao!” he said calmly, “You will be okay.”

Tears rolled down her cheeks, and she wiped them away with the corner of her blanket, feeling that seeing An Zhiyuan had never made her this happy before.

He would surely warm her up. She didn’t understand how she could be so certain of that.

He locked the door, then bent down, easily picked her up, carried her to the examination room’s bed, and sat down holding her.

“How long have you been like this?” Before An Zhiyuan had even started to open the blanket, Bai Xiao had already undone it and threw herself into his embrace, hugging his body tightly, hanging onto him like a koala.

“Not long, just after I saw a patient!” Bai Xiao felt An Zhiyuan pull her in close, and the warmth from his body was already flooding over her like the tide.

He picked up the blanket and wrapped Bai Xiao and himself tightly.

One hand cradled the back of her head, pressing her face into the crook of his neck, forcing her to breathe in the air that had been warmed by his body temperature, while his palm wrapped around her icy toes, rubbing them.

His body temperature was so high that she felt she was about to faint. At first, she only noticed the warmth enveloping her, penetrating her skin and reaching down to her bones. He held her tightly in his embrace, helping her fight against the trembles.

“Don’t cry. I’m here!” he said softly, wiping her face with the blanket.

An Zhiyuan’s body temperature continued to be transferred to her, more effective than any amount of chocolate, hot water, and warm air.

He was sweating, and she could feel his skin was damp.

“You’re sweating?” her voice was weak.

“This place is as hot as a desert,” An Zhiyuan murmured comforting words into her ear. She didn’t need consolation, she thought vaguely.

She lay quietly in his arms. As time ticked by, the silence in the room was filled only with the sound of their breathing and the steady, strong beating of his heart by her ear.

This reminded her of the countless times she had relied on him for warmth, certain that An Zhiyuan was indeed her Energy Potion against the cold.

For some inexplicable reason, after they were reborn, destiny had tightly bound them together.

She thought annoyingly, now she had to worry about how to explain that she must marry him, after all, she couldn’t expect him to warm her up without marrying An Zhiyuan, it made no sense, and it wasn’t something he would do.

Her fingers traced over his chest, and even though clothes were in the way, she could still feel his hard deltoids, feeling his strength. Even his abdomen was firm, and his legs were muscular.

No clothes could hide that; this man had a great physique, completely unaware of how fatal his current appearance was to An Zhiyuan.

Although the sigh was faint, An Zhiyuan still heard it.

“Are you warm now?”

He was reassured, and he tenderly and slowly kissed her forehead.

Finally finding Bai Xiao brought relief to his heart, and he didn’t know when, but this girl had quietly entered his heart, occupied all of it, causing him to constantly worry and be anxious for her. Now, at last, he could hold her in his arms again; she was still his.

He could tell! The joy in Bai Xiao’s eyes when she saw him; he was pleased! At the time when she needed help the most, he was the first person she thought of, and that warmed and comforted him, knowing he still had a place in her heart, even if it was just out of need.

She nodded.

“How did you end up at The Ninth Hospital? You were hard to find,” An Zhiyuan’s warm breath fluttered over her closed eyelids as he spoke.

“It’s a long story, but due to a mix-up, I ended up saving a Chief who thought that my attending university was a waste of my medical skills. So I ended up working here. I didn’t mean to lose contact with you, but I didn’t have your contact details. I regret that I was so presumptuous to leave only my address with you and not take yours,” Bai Xiao said, taking slow, deep breaths, feeling her body and mind start to relax.

“Right, how did you get here?” Bai Xiao suddenly realized! An Zhiyuan shouldn’t be here; his unit was near her small village.

With their strict military discipline, without filing a report and getting approval from superiors, he couldn’t just cross provinces. An Zhiyuan wouldn’t make a mistake just to find her, would he?

“Don’t worry!” An Zhiyuan had already seen Bai Xiao’s concern. This girl was tough on the outside but cared deeply about him.

“I’ve been transferred to a unit in this province now. I had no idea my unit was so close to your hospital; by car, it’s at most a 20-minute drive. It took me over a month to find you,” remembered An Zhiyuan, amused that his most cherished person was within such close proximity all along.

That must be fate.
