Q3
My parents were also seriously injured in the car accident, and after confirming Joy Sue was safe, they returned to their own ward to rest.
her,
Harry Lee didn’t even take off his clothes, staying by Joy Sue’s side day and night to care for
Every time Joy Sue woke from a nightmare, Harry Loo would hold her close, kiss her, and
soothe her.
More than a week passed like this, and no one oven remembered I existed.
That day, Joy Sue was once again jolted awake by a nightmare, clutching Harry Lee helplessly as she sobbed, ‘I dreamed that Quinn was chasing me, demanding her kidney back
Hearing this, Harry’s anger flared. ‘She must be cursing you behind your back–that’s why you
had such a dream. I’ll go confront her!‘
But when he hurried to my ward, he found it already occupied by a new patient.
‘What happened to the patient who was in this room before?‘
‘Maybe they were discharged.‘
Harry Lee’s face darkened instantly; such a huge matter as being discharged from the
hospital, and I hadn’t even discussed it with him.
He called me furiously.
But the other end kept saying my phone was switched off.
“Fine, you won’t answer my calls? Then don’t ever answer my calls again in this lifetime!”
He stormed back to Joy Sue’s ward, determined not to speak to me unless I apologized first.
Joy Sue immediately burst into tears upon hearing the whole story.
“Sister, do you blame me for taking her kidney?”
“It’s all my fault. If only I hadn’t had the car accident.”
“I’ll go apologize to my sister myself. I hope she can forgive me…..
But the moment she tried to move, Harry Lee immediately held her back,
“You just had surgery. You’re still weak–don’t move around.”
“I’ve wanted to fix her terrible temper for a long time–always getting jealous over nothing and making a scene!”
“Don’t worry about her. She’ll come back once she cools down.”
With that, Harry Lee brought out the porridge he had specially prepared for Joy Sue. “What
you need now is rest to restore your energy and blood. This is made just for you.”
“I’m feeding you–slow down, be careful, it’s hot.”
Even after he blew on it, Joy still let out a sharp “ah” from the burn.
Harry Lee quickly leaned over and gently blew on Joy Sue’s burned lips.
Joy’s cheeks flushed deeply, her eyes full of tender affection.
Just then, voices of the little nurses chatting drifted in from outside the door.
Harry caught only a few words before his brow furrowed.

Harry caught only a few words before his brow furrowed.
He let go of Joy Sue’s hand and stepped outside. “What were you just talking about?”
The little nurse jumped in surprise at Harry’s sudden appearance. “Mr. Lee, you–you’re here?”
“Don’t dodge the question–what exactly did you just say?”
The little nurse exchanged a glance and said, “What else can I say? Your wife is unbelievably
lucky.”
When the little nurse mentioned Joy Sue, Harry Lee thought of me instead.
“To marry a husband like you, your wife must have saved the world in her past life.”
Harry Lee felt his heart soften at the compliment.
He had truly treated me well before.
Although this time, when it came to saving Joy Sue’s life, Harry Lee thought I wasn’t understanding enough and was a bit harsh with me.
But deep down, he still loved me.
“Even after surgery, you can still be like this? I guess adversity really does reveal true feelings.“The little nurse said with a playful giggle.
Hearing this, Harry Lee couldn’t help but feel a pang of guilt.
Yeah, I’ve also been through surgery myself.
With that in mind, Harry decided to be more forgiving of my unreasonable outbursts.
“I do have a pretty good relationship with her,” Harry smiled, “it’s just that sometimes she likes
to throw little tantrums.”
“Women need to be coaxed more. If you try to reason with them every day, are they still
women?”
After the little nurse’s unintended persuasion, Harry finally let go of his prejudice.
After Joy Sue went to bed, he came home looking for me.
Before coming home, he even bought a bouquet of roses as a gift.
“Quinn, come out. Let’s make up.”
Harry Lee held the roses and searched the house several times, but never found me.
