Jiang Li’s eyes lit up, and there was a smile in her eyes as she looked at Fu Jiuxiao.

“Mr. Fu, isn’t your proposal a little too hasty?”

Fu Jiuxiao’s eyes were filled with tenderness,

“Yes, it’s a little hasty, but I don’t want to wait since the time is right.”

Jiang Li raised her eyebrows but did not say anything. Fu Jiuxiao was right. Some things did not care about so many forms and conditions. When the time was right, it would naturally happen.

Jiang Li leaned against Fu Jiuxiao and raised the ring on her finger to look at it curiously.

“This ring looks expensive. When did you prepare it?”

Was he planning to propose in the hospital from the beginning?

Fu Jiuxiao did not care much.

“I always keep it with me. I did not expect it to come in handy.”

“Always keep it with you?”

Jiang Li was a little surprised. It must be something important, right? Was it fine to give it to her like this?

“Yeah, it’s nothing. It’s yours if I give it to you.”

Fu Jiuxiao did not care much, but he kept holding Jiang Li’s finger and playing with it.

Jiang Li did not want Fu Jiuxiao to fool her like this.

“Aren’t you going to tell the truth?”

Fu Jiuxiao had no choice but to sigh.

“It was left by your mother-in-law to her future daughter-in-law.”

Jiang Li blinked. She guessed it in her heart, but she was still a little surprised when she heard it from Fu Jiuxiao.

“It’s your mother!”

“Yeah.”

She heard that Fu Jiuxiao’s mother passed away not long after giving birth to Fu Jiuxiao. She did not expect Fu Jiuxiao to have prepared such a thing so long ago.

In fact, there was one thing that Fu Jiuxiao did not tell Jiang Li about this jade ring. It was Fu Jiuxiao’s protective talisman, which he had been wearing since he was young.

A fortune-teller once said that Fu Jiuxiao had a rough life, and he needed something to protect him from disasters. That was how Fu Jiuxiao’s mother got this ring from the fortune-teller.

It was indeed strange for a man to use a ring to protect himself from disasters, but Old Master Fu requested that Fu Jiuxiao keep it with him.

Moreover, Old Master Fu also thought that the reason why Fu Jiuxiao did not die in the car accident was because of this ring.

Fu Jiuxiao did not believe this. He was an atheist. However, if the owner of this ring was Jiang Li, he was willing to believe it.

Anyway, as long as the ring was by his side, it would be fine, right? In the future, Jiang Li would always be by his side, which meant that the ring would always be by his side.

Moreover, if this ring was really that magical, could it also protect Jiang Li from disasters? Fu Jiuxiao felt that Jiang Li needed this ring more than he did.

Jiang Li naturally did not know that there were so many twists and turns in the ring that Fu Jiuxiao gave her.

If she knew that this ring was so important to Fu Jiuxiao, Jiang Li probably would not have accepted it.

Nonetheless, the two of them had a deeper and more stable relationship because of this ring.

Fu Jiuxiao had not fully recovered yet, so he could not get too tired, so he went to rest after taking the medicine. Jiang Li went out to see how Wei Ziheng was doing.

When Jiang Li came to see Wei Ziheng, Wei Ziheng was eating big mouthfuls of food. He had just finished his surgery, so he could not eat anything that was too greasy. However, seeing Wei Ziheng like this, he seemed fine and had a good appetite.

“Boss!”

Wei Ziheng saw Jiang Li coming to see him, so he quickly swallowed the food in his mouth.

“Eat slowly. No one is going to snatch it from you.”

Jiang Li rolled her eyes and sat on the chair beside Wei Ziheng’s bed.

“It seems that you have recovered quite well.”

“Of course. After all, my body has always been very strong!” Wei Ziheng patted his chest proudly.

“Forget it, your physical fitness is not even as good as Jiang Li’s.” Ban Yue also came in at this time.

Wei Ziheng pouted. He could not refute this, so he could only blame Ban Yue for not giving him face.

“Is Fu Jiuxiao asleep?”

Ban Yue saw that Jiang Li actually came to Wei Ziheng’s ward, so it must be that Fu Jiuxiao was fine.

Jiang Li nodded. “He has taken his medicine and is resting.”

Ban Yue saw an extra ring on Jiang Li’s finger. She seemed to have guessed something, but she did not point it out. Instead, she changed the topic.

“Even though Fu Jiuxiao is recovering fast, there were side effects after taking the Beta-type Medicine. I have to observe him for the next two days.”

Jiang Li nodded. She knew that Fu Jiuxiao was also scared when he impulsively injected the Beta-type Medicine ahead of time. Fortunately, Fu Jiuxiao did not seem to be out of the ordinary these two days.

Wei Ziheng complained while drinking his soup, “If I were here, there wouldn’t be any side effects at all.”

Ban Yue could not help but retort, “I only know how to study poison, and I’m not a doctor. Who knew that injecting the Beta-type Medicine was so troublesome? Didn’t you say that you could just inject it directly?”

“That depends on the specific situation.”
