Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

A few minutes later, Abby stood at the front door, watching as Evan's car pulled up outside her house. "Why were you discharged from the hospital?" she asked the moment he stepped out of the car. Evan coughed a few times as he closed the car door, causing Abby's frown to deepen.

His health was his responsibility-if he didn't take care of himself, who would?

"I stayed in the hospital for two days and had intravenous treatment. I'm feeling much better now," Evan explained, his voice slightly hoarse. "The doctor said I could be discharged and prescribed me three days of medication. If I'm not better after that, I'll go back for another round.

"He also said this happened because I ate too many chili peppers, but my overall health is good. I just need to stick to a bland diet for a while and avoid spicy food. My throat's still a little sore, and I have a slight cough, but recovery takes time. Staying in the hospital any longer was unbearable, so I came home."

Abby noted that his voice sounded stronger and his energy seemed better, but something about him looked different. Was it her imagination, or had he lost weight?

It wasn't impossible-two days of white porridge and bland meals could do that.

Evan opened his car door again and retrieved a bouquet of flowers and several gift bags. "Why did you bring all this?" Abby asked. "You know I have everything I need at home." Evan smiled. "I couldn't show up empty-handed. If I did, my grandmother would scold me. She raised me, and if I embarrass her by being rude, I'm sure she'd still punish me, even now."
