Chapter 47: 【Severing Relationship】

Seeing Jiang Chengzhi in pain, Tang Ruan immediately released his hand, a wave of concern washing over him. "Mr. Jiang, are you injured?"

Wasn't it odd? Even if he were hurt, it wouldn't be in that area, right?

His eyes widened in alarm, and he exclaimed angrily, "Who is so vicious?"

As the pain slowly subsided, Jiang Chengzhi shook his head, his face flushed. "No..."

"What’s going on?" Tang Ruan reached out, his fingers gently wiping the sweat from Jiang Chengzhi's forehead.

Meeting Tang Ruan's worried gaze, Jiang Chengzhi pursed his lips, realizing he had to confess. In a low voice, he admitted, "I had a minor operation."

Fearing Tang Ruan would be angry, he cautiously took his hand and added, "I'm sorry, Ruanruan. I should have discussed this with you."

"You really should have!" Tang Ruan’s voice held a hint of anger, and his eyes began to glisten with unshed tears.

Startled, Jiang Chengzhi rushed to comfort him. "Ruanruan, it's just a minor operation. I didn’t think it through. I'm sorry, don’t cry... You can hit me or scold me; just don’t be sad."

Tang Ruan sniffed, feeling a deep sense of distress. "How can a vasectomy be a minor operation? ... W-when I touched it just now, it felt like there wasn’t anything missing!"

Imagining Jiang Chengzhi having a part of his body severed sent a wave of nausea and discomfort through him.

Jiang Chengzhi sensed Tang Ruan’s misunderstanding and felt both helpless and amused. "Nothing was cut, Ruanruan. You misunderstood."

Tang Ruan's tears brimmed as he protested, "Isn't sterilization just... cutting off that thing?"

Jiang Chengzhi could only stare, momentarily at a loss for words.

Realizing he had to clarify, he patiently explained, "No, it's about preventing infertility. Everything else is fine."

Tang Ruan blinked in surprise. "So it’s just about not being able to have children? That’s a relief!"

Seeing Tang Ruan’s distress fade, Jiang Chengzhi let out a sigh of relief. "Yes, so you don’t need to worry."

Tang Ruan exhaled deeply, suddenly feeling embarrassed. He scratched his face, thinking, Help! Watching too much TV can really warp your understanding!

Shifting the topic, Tang Ruan asked, "So, you stayed at the company because you were afraid I’d find out?"

"Yeah." Jiang Chengzhi recognized his mistake and admitted, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have made you worry."

Even though it wasn’t a significant issue, Tang Ruan still felt a pang of distress. He shook his head. "It’s okay; I won’t blame you."

After saying that, he buried himself in Jiang Chengzhi's arms, finding solace as Jiang Chengzhi gently patted his back.

Moments later, Tang Ruan sat up, a look of anxiety crossing his face. "Are you sure there won’t be any problems in that regard? I don’t want to be a widow at such a young age!"

He and Mr. Jiang still had so many things they wanted to explore together!

Jiang Chengzhi’s face flushed at Tang Ruan's words, but he couldn't resist the earnestness in his gaze. "No, I... I can't bear to think of that either."

"Haha..." Tang Ruan thought, That's true. No matter what, Mr. Jiang would never be so pessimistic!

"Okay, then Mr. Jiang, take good care of yourself." Tang Ruan slid off his lap, taking Jiang Chengzhi's hand. "It’s almost eleven o'clock. Come home with me. Were you really planning to spend the night at the company if I hadn’t come looking for you?"
