Hubby's Deep Love Will Never Change-Chapter 1145 Heather of the Other Shore Flower Sea (169)

Well, there she was again, waiting outside the ward for a while. When the young nurse finished changing Nian Shen’s dressing and came out, she spotted Heather and smiled at her mysteriously, "Miss Hai, I’ve discovered something about you—you’re especially shy! Who would’ve thought?"

"..." Heather couldn’t even be bothered to explain anymore.

Shy?

Sister, when I was making waves in the world, you hadn’t even set foot in society yet.

"Did he seriously have no reaction?"

"What reaction?" The nurse looked a bit puzzled. "You mean, yelling from the pain? Not at all. Even when I was disinfecting his wound, he didn’t make a sound—so manly! Usually, people would feel at least some pain; some even cry out dramatically! Mr. Nian is honestly the manliest patient I’ve ever seen!"

They were totally talking about two different things.

Heather glanced into the ward and thought to herself, how could it be so different?

When she changed his dressing once, the situation spiraled out of control, yet the nurse had done it countless times without an issue.

Could it simply be because the atmosphere that night was a little strange, creating a messed-up vibe that made him lose his composure?

"So, Miss Hai, why are you dodging questions?" The nurse leaned in with a particularly nosy look. "You didn’t even answer my question..." Her expression practically jumped with curiosity.

"What question?" Heather was caught up thinking and genuinely hadn’t heard what she asked.

"Are you two... you know... still not... that thing, yet?"

"..."

That thing? 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

The nurse couldn’t stop laughing, "Is that why you’re too afraid to look at his body? Why else would you have bolted out of the room? Let me tell you, Mr. Nian has an amazing physique! Next time... You can totally sneak a peek if you want!"

"..."

She had already seen it!

But this young nurse truly was a devout CP (couple pairing) fan. She kept wishing for the two of them to blossom into something romantic, yet didn’t have any delusion that she might end up with Nian Shen herself. In fact, she showed zero inclination in that direction—which was rare, really.

"Miss Hai, you better give it your all!" The nurse cheered her on. "Here’s hoping you win over Mr. Nian soon!"

Before leaving, she leaned closer to say quietly, "Don’t lose to Qu Leqi! I really don’t like her—she’s way too fake. I bet this latest scandal was completely manufactured by her. You have to keep trying! All of us are rooting for you to end up with Mr. Nian!"

"..."

Speechless!

So, what... if she didn’t try harder, she’d be letting down all this collective support?

Heather chuckled dryly and nodded, "I’ll... try my best, okay?"

"Go for it!" Even as she walked away, the nurse couldn’t resist cheering her on one last time.

Once she finally left, Heather leaned against the wall and released a long breath. These days... she wasn’t even afraid of people being cold toward her; what really overwhelmed her were people who were overly enthusiastic. That’s what she couldn’t handle at all.

"Saying you’ll try means you really have to make an effort."

Nian Shen’s voice suddenly rang out, startling Heather so much she jumped and turned her head to look at him. "Mr. Nian, could you not speak out of nowhere? My reflex system nearly commanded me to smack you!"

Her recognition system had kicked in quickly, identifying the voice as Nian Shen’s in time to suppress her reflex system. Otherwise, he might’ve actually gotten hit.

"Based on my repeated experiments, your reflexes are fast enough to stop yourself just before hitting me." Nian Shen said matter-of-factly.

Heather, however, couldn’t shake the feeling that his words were extremely punch-worthy.
