Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 1069: Chapter 1069: Dreamed She Called Me Dad

"Hubby~"

Tang Yue’s intentionally soft and tender voice echoed in Si Yu’s ears, intensifying Si Yu’s urge.

"Take your time washing yourself."

As she spoke, Tang Yue nimbly ran out.

Wifey, you did that on purpose, didn’t you?

Si Yu wore a bitter expression. Thinking about Tang Yue’s actions just then, he couldn’t help but understand that she did it on purpose, teasing him until he was all fired up, then running away!

When we get home, he’s definitely going to pull her into countless rounds of teasing.

In the hospital room, Tang Yue patted her flushed face, thinking about how he couldn’t release his tension, she secretly smiled. Hmph, serves him right for being naughty.

Tang Yue carefully checked on Lian He, confirming he didn’t have a fever or feel unwell, before starting to fold the bedside bedding. She and Si Yu were staying overnight, letting Si Yu sleep on the bed was also beneficial for his wound to heal.

After a while, Si Yu finally finished washing, and Tang Yue handed him clean clothes. It was a casual outfit; usually, it was either camouflage or green uniforms, or green and white shirts. It was rare for him to wear casual clothes.

The gray casual wear made Si Yu’s figure appear taller, and he seemed less imposing. Dressed in casual clothes, he looked more approachable and sunny.

Tang Yue couldn’t help but stare blankly. She thought, Si Yu was naturally a clothes hanger. If he wore a suit and tie, wouldn’t he look like a CEO from the future?

Hm, even more handsome than the CEOs in TV shows.

Si Yu was very pleased with the astonished look in Tang Yue’s eyes. He purposely posed handsomely several times, making Tang Yue’s eyes widen with amazement. Tang Yue grumbled, "Oh, if only phones could take pictures."

"Phones can take pictures," Si Yu responded, "I heard the new models just released can take photos."

"Forget it, the pictures from those are awful, not as good as a camera."

Tang Yue missed the powerful beauty cameras of the future that allowed her to take pictures anytime, anywhere. Unlike now, where without a camera, there was no way to take photos.

"When we get home, I’ll wear this outfit and let you take all the pictures you want," Si Yu said narcissistically.

Tang Yue pouted, sat on the edge of the hospital bed yawning, too lazy to bother with him.

It was already early morning, and she was very sleepy.

"You sleep on the bed, I’ll keep watch," Si Yu said, feeling sorry for his wife. Tang Yue also felt sorry for her injured husband. They pushed back and forth, and finally, Si Yu said, "We’ll take turns; I’ll keep watch for the first half, and you the second."

"Okay, remember to wake me at three,"

"You must wake me up,"

Tang Yue repeatedly reminded him, afraid that Si Yu wouldn’t wake her. She even set an alarm on her phone. She lay on the small accompanying bed, leaving some space for Si Yu so he could lie down and rest when tired. She was so sleepy that she soon fell into a deep slumber.

"Don’t turn off my alarm,"

Si Yu kept watch by Lian He’s hospital bed, as Lian He needed special care post-surgery.

Si Yu occasionally covered Tang Yue with a blanket, occasionally checked on Lian He.

At three in the morning, Tang Yue’s alarm rang just as Si Yu turned it off. Tang Yue groggily opened her eyes, suddenly sat up, and said, "You promised to wake me, but you turned off my alarm!"

Tang Yue rubbed her still-sleepy eyes, pushing Si Yu to rest on the bed, saying, "You’re also a patient, you should sleep."

"If you don’t sleep, don’t think about sleeping with me ever again," Tang Yue threatened playfully. Luckily, she was keeping something in mind; otherwise, any noise would wake her up.

"Alright, I’ll sleep,"

Si Yu lay in bed but couldn’t sleep, and Tang Yue coaxed him as if coaxing a child, making Si Yu feel both amused and helpless.

With the faint fragrance from Tang Yue, Si Yu, who hadn’t slept in days, finally fell into a deep sleep.

The morning sunlight spilled in, and when Lian He woke up, he saw the white ceiling and smelled the disinfectant in the air.

Hospital.

Lian He’s brain didn’t react for a while. Suddenly, he turned to see Tang Yue sleeping at the bedside, and he couldn’t help but smile.

"Brother, how are you feeling?"

Gu Chun walked in and saw this harmonious scene. He waved the porridge in his hand and asked, "Do you feel unwell anywhere?"

Gu Chun lowered his voice.

"No, Gu Chun, you won’t believe it, but I think I dreamed yesterday that Xiao Yue was calling me dad," Lian He said excitedly, but still controlled his volume, afraid of waking Tang Yue.

Gu Chun chuckled, "You weren’t dreaming. Xiao Yue did call you dad, not just once, but many times, especially when you came out of the operating room. Xiao Yue stayed by your side the whole time."

"Really?"

Lian He was so moved that tears gathered in his eyes, and he quickly asked, "What about Xiao Yue? Is she hurt?"

"She’s fine; you don’t need to worry. However, you need to take good care of your injury," Gu Chun reminded, "Although yesterday’s incident didn’t injure any vital parts, it was quite dangerous."

"It’s fine; as long as Xiao Yue is safe," Lian He thought, seeing Tang Yue’s sweet sleeping face, he whispered, "I never fulfilled my duties as a father growing up. To protect her once makes me happy."

Lian He didn’t think being injured was such a big deal. What’s a little pain against his daughter’s safety? He didn’t mind enduring more pain if it meant her safety.

Gu Chun’s eyes flickered. He understood Lian He’s compensatory mindset. Like how he felt towards Lian Tong, his unwavering affection was very important but so was his guilt toward her. He wished he could present the best things in the world to Lian Tong.

Back when Lian Tong was injured and lost her child, he would rather have been hurt himself than see anything happen to Lian Tong.

Empathizing with Lian He’s love for his daughter, having such thoughts was understandable to Gu Chun.

"Brother, you also need to take good care of your wound, or else Xiao Yue would be upset."

Gu Chun’s words were agreed upon by Si Yu, who said, "Dad, Uncle is right. You need to take good care of your wound, or Xiao Yue will definitely feel bad."

Si Yu was inherently alert; he would wake at the slightest movement. He knew the moment Gu Chun entered the hospital room but chose to stay silent.

"Si Yu,"

Hearing Si Yu call him ’Dad’ was like hearing the most beautiful sound in the world for Lian He.

Si Yu was always in sync with Tang Yue. Since Tang Yue hadn’t acknowledged him, Lian He naturally hadn’t heard his son-in-law call him ’Dad’. Now, Si Yu did.
