My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 189

"I'll tell Mr. Tang that you’re awake. He's been worried about you all day. Before he left, he instructed me to call him after you wake up." Then Venus Mu took her phone and walked out of the hospital room to make a call.

When Venus went out, Xuan Chu struggled to get up from the bed. He wanted to put on his shoes, but his feet were swollen and his movement was a little inflexible, so he hadn't been able to put on his slippers.

Then he sighed and continued to put on his shoes. That was when Venus came in. She saw him get up from the bed and hurried over, "Do you need my help?"

Chu looked up at her with a teasing look, "I need to go to the bathroom."

Venus touched her nose and she felt a little embarrassed. Then she squatted down to put the newly bought slippers on his feet.

Xuan was startled by the way she skillfully helped him put on the shoes. No one except his mother had ever worn shoes for him.

"Let me help you over." Venus didn't look at his face. She was just holding his arm as she pushed the rack where the bottles were hanging.

Then they moved slowly to the bathroom. Yan looked at Venus so closely and found that she didn't look like his sister at all, except for this face that resembled her sister.

If the real Yan was here, she definitely wouldn't stay in the hospital.

Reaching the door of the bathroom, Venus put the bracket in, and then she said, "I'll be at the door. When you're done, just call my name."

Before Xun thanked her, she hurriedly ran out.

After waiting at the door for a while, she shouted, "Are you done?"

After hearing the sound of water flushing the toilet coming out of the bathroom, she then heard Xuan's voice, "I'm done."

That's when Venus went in and helped him walk out.

As Xun sat on the bed, Venus bent down to take off her shoes and put them neatly under the bed and asked him, "Do you have anything you want to eat now?"

"I don't want to eat anything. Could you get me a glass of water, please? I'm thirsty."

When Venus turned to get the water for him, he struggled to lift his legs onto the bed. He was tired and sweaty from just moving around so much.

Venus brought the water over and handed it to him. "Shixuan Tang said he would come over after work and asked if you had any instructions." she said.

Xuan took the water and took a few sips. "You tell him to go to the hotel and get my phone and laptop. The phone might have fallen under the bed."

Venus looked down to edit the text message carefully, tilted her head up and asked, "What else?"

"No more, that's all." Then he frowned at her for a moment before saying, "I'm still not used to you wearing that fake face. Can you take it off in front of me?"

Venus immediately refused, "No, I can take it off it at night, with no one watching me."

"I'm just making a suggestion. Why are you so nervous?" Xuan said.

"I also don’t want to wear it. My skin doesn't breathe and it hurts. It takes me a long time to wear it every day. So please put up with it even if you don’t like it." Venus said.

Xuan laughed, "I'm just making a casual remark. And you're angry?"

Venus also felt a little unreasonable herself. She would also find it unbearable if a strange man wore the face mask of her brother's before her. She thought of Xuan as the only person she could complain about, so she was a little out of sorts.

"I'm sorry. I didn't control my temper." Venus forced a smile and apologized.

Xuan wasn't angry. He said, "Actually, you could have been a little more arrogant."

Venus laughed, "Please don't tease me."

"I'm serious," Xuan said. "My sister is a very spunky girl. She'll say anything she sees that doesn't go her way and never restrains her temper or thinks of others."

Describing Yan as spunky was a compliment, it was only right to describe her as domineering. But she was Xuan's sister, so Xuan didn't use domineering to describe her.

"Her family's power allows her to do that without being hated." Venus said. Yan was rich and pretty, so there were many people who would flatter her. Even if she was arrogant and domineering, people wouldn't stay away from her. If she was penniless and ugly, people would only dislike her.

Xuan knew that Kerry must have finished his investigation before coming to the hospital, so he wasn't going to hide it.

"I drank too much wine yesterday, so I felt sick when I got halfway there. Then I asked Yan to buy me a few bowls of porridge. She spent so much time abroad that she forgot I was allergic to shrimp. I also didn't notice that the porridge she bought had shrimp in it, so I just ate it." Then Xuan glared at Venus deliberately as he said that.

Venus was grateful to see him speak up for her. Then she went on to make up the story, "Brother, I know I was wrong, so please forgive me. Mom and Dad have scolded me over the phone. I promise I'll never make that mistake again."

"I know you're happy to see me in the hospital, right?" Xuan teased.

"Brother, are you joking? you know, I like you the best." After Venus said that, not only was she a little embarrassed, but also Xuan was a little overwhelmed.

Kerry had a lot of questions he wanted to ask them, but after hearing them talk, he wasn't going to ask them anymore.

"How many days will Mr. Chu stay in the hospital? Do you need any help? I'm more familiar with Sky City, I can help you."

Xuan smiled politely, "I'll be discharged the day after tomorrow. With Yan here to take care of me, Mr. Ye doesn't have to bother."

Kerry was a little unhappy when he heard this. He didn't want her staying with a grown man at night. He took a glance at Venus, who looked guilty, and said, "It's not convenient for her to care for you in some ways. I think it’s better to let a man take care of you here. What do you think of me leaving my assistant here to look after you?"

"Thank you, Mr. Ye, but don't bother. Shixuan Tang just called me and he’ll come here tonight." Xuan looked at Venus and said teasingly, “I won’t let her stay up late with me."

Kerry was relieved.

After a few more minutes of talking, Kerry got up and said goodbye to Xuan, and then left the room.

Venus shut the door and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"When you just said you liked me best, I felt weird," Xuan teased.

Venus shuddered as well, "I thought so too. But thanks for helping me."
