Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 400

She waited for a few seconds before hearing his hum in acknowledgement. Stealing a look at Lu Xingzhi, Jiang Yao turned back and prepared her bed for the night.

"Call Weiqi and ask him to send you home. The bed here is not clean, who knows how many people have slept on it?" He knew his wife very well, knowing that she was slightly germophobic. It was actually a common trait between doctors, or more particularly, the older doctors.

"I am not as bad as you think," Jiang Yao muttered. "Under circumstances and conditions that allow it, I would be as picky as I can. But, if the circumstance does not allow for it, I can be very flexible and easygoing."

She paused, seeing Lu Xingzhi's frigid expression, she laughed and lay down on her bed while assuring him that she was perfectly okay being here.

"You need constant care here. I did not tell your parents about your injury yet, so I must be here to make sure that you make a speedy recovery. Zhou Weiqi actually offered to do shifts with me, but I cannot be rest assured being away from you," Jiang Yao explained.

She looked around and found the light switch. Turning it off, she said, "Close your eyes and go to sleep."

With a click, the lights were switched off, plunging the entire room into darkness.

The hospital was quiet, especially the intensive care ward, which received less foot traffic.

Jiang Yao felt that her hearing had been improving. Once the room became silent, she could clearly hear Lu Xingzhi's breathing.

Listening to his breathing told her that he was not asleep.
