If you keep making noise, I won’t stand it anymore!

The man threw away the towel in his hand, then threw himself on the woman and burst into tears.

His actions confused the woman. What was going on? Shouldn't she be crying because she had just woken up from a serious illness? Why did he make the man feel so wronged? Whether it was the past or the future, shouldn't she be the one who was wronged?

The woman looked at the man who was crying uncontrollably on her, and then looked around to see that there was indeed no one else in the ward. She could only sigh helplessly, "Can you get up and pour me a glass of water before you continue crying? My throat is about to smoke."

"Ah?" The man looked up after hearing the words, and after a moment of stunned silence, he suddenly came to his senses, wiped his face with both hands, climbed up from the woman embarrassedly, walked to the table, mixed a cup of warm water and brought it over. He half lifted the woman's body, and then put the cup of water to her mouth.

When the man approached the woman, her body stiffened and she subconsciously dodged, but she had no strength after lying down for four days. The man's eyes dimmed involuntarily, and then he pretended not to notice and continued to prepare to feed the woman water.

"I, I can do it myself." The woman said stiffly.

The man ignored her and stubbornly continued to put the cup of water to her lips. The woman sighed secretly in her heart, and drank the glass of water in one breath from his hand, and then she felt relieved.

"Would you like another drink?" The man used his hand to wipe away the remaining drop of water on the woman's lips. The woman tried to dodge but failed, allowing him to succeed.

The ward fell silent for a moment, and neither of them knew where to start.

Ten minutes later, just as the woman was getting impatient and preparing to lie down again, the man folded his hands together and clenched them tightly, then spoke with difficulty: "You have to believe me about that matter. It was really an accident. I really didn't expect her to do that. I didn't react in time and couldn't avoid her in time. I really didn't betray you or our family."

"It's been so long, and it's over. Is it important to talk about this now?" The woman was silent for a long time before she spoke softly. Five years was neither long nor short. She had gotten over her anger and sadness, and had used work to numb herself. Now she had finally calmed down. Why did he want to break this hard-earned peace?

The man looked at the woman infatuatedly. He understood her mood and her retreat, but he could not retreat. He resolutely could not retreat. He finally stood in front of her again from the dark and started a conversation. This time, he would go no matter what. He owed her this. What he feared more from the bottom of his heart was the countless days and nights of regret and the burning longing.

"It's important. Of course it's important." The man finally mustered up his courage and knelt on the ground, just like he had done every time he talked to the woman in the past four days. He held the woman's right hand with both of his own hands and kissed it on his lips. "I already know I was wrong. Five years of punishment is the limit of what I can bear. No matter what you say this time, don't think of driving me away from you."

The woman pulled her right hand hard but failed to pull it out. "Why are you doing this? Now that it has happened, there is no turning back, right?"

"How can you forgive me? As long as you can say it, I can do it." The man held the woman's hand tightly, his eyes reddened: "You don't know, in the past five years, when I really couldn't sleep, I would quietly drive to your building. Only in this way can I feel closer to you and take a nap peacefully."

"Seeing you unhappy, you don't know how much I regret. When I'm so heartbroken that I can't control myself, I will hit my right cheek hard. Feel it, feel it." The man said as he put the woman's right hand on his right cheek.

The man's thin cheek, which should have been hard because of his clenched teeth, was clearly dented when he pressed his fist. The woman felt it carefully for a while and found that there were indeed three teeth missing.

"What's going on? Where are your teeth?" The woman turned her head in surprise, staring at the man's face and asked anxiously.

The man saw the woman's anxious look, and his heart warmed. It seemed that the woman's heart was as soft as usual, and she was not as ruthless to him as she said. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile: "Just lie down, don't worry."

"It's already this late, and you're still in the mood to laugh?" The woman glared at him and then asked, "Tell me, what happened? How did your teeth fall out?"

Hiding the bitterness in his eyes, the man explained softly, "I couldn't sleep at night. The more I thought about you, the more I hated myself. There was a time when I couldn't control myself anymore and I slapped myself hard. Maybe I slapped myself too much and too hard, so one day three teeth suddenly fell out."

The man said it calmly, but the woman and Meixiang were terrified. How cruel he was to them. "Why are you so stupid? How could you do that?" The woman stroked the man's right cheek and couldn't help but shed tears.

"Xiang'er, please forgive me. I really know I was wrong. I fired Li Li that day, and I have never let a woman get within one meter of me in the past five years." The man reached out to wipe the woman's tears and begged in a low voice. "We grew up together, and I can't bear to part with decades of feelings. Please forgive me? Otherwise, I really don't know what else I can do."

The woman stared at the man's face blankly. As he said, decades of love cannot be let go. She also knew that his car was parked downstairs of her house five days a week in the past five years. Apart from that kiss, he really didn't do anything to let her down.

She had not been happy in the past five years. She said she forgave him, but she was unwilling to do so. She was a person who could not tolerate any sand in her eyes. The scene that day was like a thorn in her heart, which kept her awake at night.

"If I don't want this layer of skin, will you forgive me?" The man looked at her staring at him blankly and suddenly asked.

The woman was shocked when she heard that, and then she came to her senses. She reached out and slapped the man's shoulder hard, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? If I find out that you dare to hurt yourself again, I will never forgive you again. If you don't believe me, try it?!"

"Ah? So you forgive me?" The man asked in surprise, looking at the woman's still pretty face.

The woman glanced at him, turned around and slid into the quilt, "It depends on how you perform."
