Chapter 906: Chapter 360: Good Things Take Time, The Power of Saying Hello

Returning to the provincial capital, Zhou Can and Su Qianqian went back to his apartment near Bajing Lake together.

Usually, it was Su Qianqian and Wei Fang who lived there.

Wei Fang had rented a one-bedroom apartment on the first floor of another building for her grandmother to stay.

As Su Qianqian’s fame grew, safety became a top priority. Fortunately, the law and order in the provincial capital was decent, and as long as the celebrity maintained a low profile, a personal professional bodyguard would suffice for protection.

“Can, it’s rare for both of us to have a day off today. How about I go buy some groceries and cook for you? You barely had a bite at lunch before you went to the hospital to help Huanhuan.”

Su Qianqian felt for her boyfriend, bringing out her snacks for Zhou Can to tide over his hunger.

“Sure! It’s been quite a while since we last shopped for groceries together!”

Zhou Can agreed gladly.

Qianqian not only had good looks but also excellent cooking skills. The life Zhou Can longed for was to hold her hand every day after work, shopping for groceries together, and then cooking a meal at home.

Such a simple, ordinary life gave him the warmth of home.

Su Qianqian equally cherished every moment spent with Zhou Can.

Having met his parents this time, their relationship was further solidified, and the day they’d move in together wasn’t far off.

“Wei Fang, you’ve been away for five days. Why don’t you go check on your grandma first? When we’re done cooking, we’ll call you over for dinner and you can bring some to your grandma too.”

Zhou Can put effort into little details to win hearts, ensuring Wei Fang’s loyalty to him.

“Thank you, Boss! Thank you, Boss Lady!”

Wei Fang cheerfully expressed her gratitude to both of them.

“Who’s the boss lady!” Su Qianqian said, a bit shyly.

“You’ve met the boss’s parents, and your relationship is so good. Calling you the boss lady seems quite appropriate!” Wei Fang, typically not one to jest, had grown close to Zhou Can and Su Qianqian over time.

She finally dared to speak up a bit.

“Haha, well said, well said, you’ll get a bonus this month.”

Zhou Can laughed heartily.

Su Qianqian’s face turned even redder as she pinched him.

“Boss lady, let us go too! Off to buy groceries!”

Zhou Can took her hand, and they left the house together.

With him around, there was no problem holding off five or six bodyguards. Even a group of three or five strong men was no match for Zhou Can.

While shopping at the market, Su Qianqian specifically picked the vegetables Zhou Can liked. Though just a small gesture, it touched Zhou Can deeply.

Su Qianqian treated him genuinely well.

Walking home with two large bags of groceries, Su Qianqian smiled like a happy little girl.

“Dear, how wonderful it would be if you could always accompany me shopping, cooking at home, and living together! After visiting your parents and seeing how good their relationship is, I feel an intense desire for a home too.”

Since coming back, she seemed to have undergone some change.

The desire to start a family became more urgent.

“That’s simple. Tonight, I won’t leave; I’ll stay with you.”

Zhou Can’s heart surged with excitement, finally anticipating a night together with her.

It had been a tough two-year wait.

“Okay!”

She agreed, albeit with a bit of bashfulness.

This unexpected joy made Zhou Can overwhelmed with happiness, wanting to embrace her if not for the large bags of groceries he was carrying.

Back home, they cooked together.

Su Qianqian’s cooking skills were impeccable, and the dishes she prepared thoroughly satisfied Zhou Can’s taste buds.

Wei Fang, being a particularly filial girl, didn’t start eating by herself but first took some to her grandma, returning only after Zhou Can and Su Qianqian finished their meal.

Perhaps she just intended to leave a bit of private space for the couple.

After dining, Zhou Can eagerly anticipated the pleasant evening, holding Su Qianqian while watching television on the living room sofa.

Wei Fang, having finished her meal, diligently cleaned up, loading the dishes into the dishwasher in the kitchen.

With improved financial circumstances, Qianqian had acquired several new home appliances.

Holding his beloved while watching TV, Zhou Can was restless.

Su Qianqian seemed to sense his thoughts, her pretty face persistently flushed, appearing very bashful.

“I’m going for a shower! Sitting for hours on that ride was indeed exhausting.”

She stood up, fetched some clothes from the room, and headed into the bathroom.

Sitting on the sofa fiddling with his phone, Zhou Can found that the medical books he usually read with interest were incomprehensible, as if his mind was fogged up today.

Just then, his phone rang suddenly.

It was a call from his cousin.

By now, it was almost eight in the evening, so his cousin should have transferred his uncle to the provincial capital.

“Brother Hai, are you in the provincial capital now?”

Zhou Can asked.

“We arrived at Tuya Hospital around seven,” Zhou Hai sounded a bit weary.

“Great! Uncle must have been admitted to the hospital, right?” Zhou Can inquired.

Being at the hospital for over an hour, and given the critical condition of his uncle, the admission procedures should have been completed.

“Don’t even mention it! We’re still waiting outside the Emergency Department. The big hospital is overwhelmed with patients; just registering took us nearly half an hour. I heard other family members say many departments have already closed.”

His cousin was full of grievances.

“Go to the Cardiothoracic Center! That’s the fast-track route.”

Zhou Can was relatively familiar with the hospital admission process and departments.

The Emergency Department and Cardiothoracic Center are both open 24/7. The Emergency Department at Tuya is pretty basic, essentially acting like a diversion platform. It receives various patients and then directs them to the corresponding specialties.

The Cardiothoracic Center, however, is different, being a reception center jointly established by the Cardiovascular Internal Medicine and Thoracic Surgery. It specializes in handling various patients with chest pain and heart problems.
