Chapter 966: Baby, Let Me Help You Bathe
Mrs. Zuo disagreed, "How can she be discharged? She just woke up! Let her stay for two more days!"The doctor had a friendly relationship with Mr. Zuo, and upon hearing this, smiled, "Don’t worry, your daughter-in-law is really fine. She wasn’t here due to illness, just dehydration and hunger. We’ve already given her a nutrient infusion, the fever has mostly subsided, and she’s doing very well now."
Upon hearing the words "daughter-in-law," Zoe Lewis couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed. How did even the doctor know about this?
She glanced guiltily at the others, but saw that Mr. and Mrs. Zuo had no reaction to this term and were there expressing their gratitude to the doctor.
Ryker Zuo also showed no expression, as if he hadn’t heard those three words at all.
In the end, Mrs. Zuo didn’t agree to let Zoe Lewis be discharged immediately, insisting she should stay for one more day, with the whole family accompanying her.
After seeing off the doctor, Mrs. Zuo took Zoe Lewis’s hand, carefully asking if she felt uncomfortable anywhere, or if there was anything she wanted to eat or drink.
"Auntie, I’m really quite fine everywhere, just a bit thirsty."
The cup of water just ended up spilling on her.
"Ryker, quickly, pour some water for your wife!"
Ryker obediently poured a cup of warm water and handed it over.
Zoe Lewis looked at Ryker in shock, not because he poured water for her, but because he didn’t show any resistance to the word "wife!"
Didn’t he previously keep explaining again and again to Mrs. Zuo that they’re just friends?
Seeing that Zoe Lewis truly seemed fine, Mrs. Zuo finally felt relieved, wiping her tears and happily saying, "You just woke up, you have no strength, let Ryker feed you drinks, your uncle and I will go prepare some food and things for you."
She quickly pulled Mr. Zuo away, closed the hospital room door, leaving only Zoe Lewis and Ryker Zuo alone.
This time, however, Ryker didn’t feed her, just handed the water to her, his tone as bland as usual, "You can drink water yourself, right?"
Zoe Lewis hurriedly nodded, "I can."
She tilted her head back and drank the water all up, then handed it to Ryker, "Another cup!"
Ryker poured her another cup with a very diligent demeanor.
Zoe Lewis drank two cups of water in a row and finally caught her breath.
She comfortably lay on the bed, finally remembering to show some concern for Ryker, "Are you okay?"
"I’m fine."
"Let me see your hand."
Ryker didn’t show her, his voice indifferent, "Just take care of yourself."
Zoe Lewis glared at him unsatisfied; truly ungrateful. The gentleness from the mine was surely a façade; once outside, he reverted to his original form.
She almost suspected the person who cautiously held her to feed her water earlier wasn’t even him.
Mrs. Zuo soon brought in a set of new clothes, instructing Ryker, "Ryker, help Little Zoe change into them, she’s weak and doesn’t have much energy now."
Zoe Lewis’s face turned red instantly!
She still had the strength to change clothes!
Of course, Ryker couldn’t possibly change her clothes for her, but he asked, "Do you want to take a shower before changing?"
The Zuo family was far from lacking money, and got the best hospital room with a private bathroom, so if Zoe Lewis wanted to shower, it was absolutely feasible.
Zoe Lewis was tempted, got out of bed to go shower but was held down by Mrs. Zuo.
"Ryker, carry her to the shower; she doesn’t have the strength now. What if she faints in there?"
Zoe Lewis thought Ryker would surely decline, but he unexpectedly nodded, "Makes sense."
After saying this, he came over to carry her, his tone mild, "Sweetheart, I’ll help you shower."
