Iâm off to eat dinner now, I have a shift later!â
Lu Yinchu ignored him, Gui Xi feeling a bit embarrassed, turned his head and made a silly face at Nanxi, making her laugh!
Narrowing his eyes, Lu Yinchu looked towards Nanxi.
When his gaze met Nanxiâs, she immediately restrained her amusement.
Thereâs a hint of helplessness in Lu Yinchuâs eyes as he asked in a calm voice, âWhat do you want to eat tonight?â
âWhatever!â Anyway, their tastes were similar, and Nanxi considered herself to be pretty easygoing when it came to food!
Just after six in the evening, Yang Su and Lan Qiqi arrived, along with them were Bai Yuchuan and Yan Chenqing, by that time Lu Yinchu had already left!
Upon hearing that Nanxi was ill, Yang Su and Lan Qiqi felt guilty.
They had both left early in the morning, who would have thought that Nanxi would develop a fever.
Moreover, it was quite severe.
After talking with Nanxi for a while, she persuaded both of them to return to the school.
Yang Su was somewhat reluctant to leave, âIâd like to stay and chat with you a little longer.
Youâre alone at the hospital, it must be so boring!â
Nanxi lied to Yang Su and told them that it was Liang Qiaoqiao who brought her to the hospital.
As for Han Baobao, she thought that Lu Yinchu would take care of everything, there was no need for her to worry!
âNot boring at all, my cousin will come and keep me company later!â Nanxi said.
âHow about this,â suggested Bai Yuchuan, âI will drive Susu and Lanlan back to school first, as the university has a curfew and you two canât return too late.
Especially you, Susu, you have a thesis defense coming up soon, you canât afford to lose focus now.
Tonight, Chenqing and I will stay at the hospital to keep Nanxi company!â
As soon as she heard him Nanxi rushed to say, âReally, thereâs no need to stay.
Moreover, I donât need company deep in the night while Iâm sleeping.
You guys know I love my sleep, and fell asleep right away, whatâs the point in you guys staying up all night for nothing?â
Bai Yuchuan felt a bit awkward, he was only trying to look considerate as a friend, as they were all friends after all, it gave everyone an excuse!
Eventually, everyone left.
Yan Chenqing stayed a little longer, stating that it wasnât time to sleep yet, and he could pass the time by chatting with her!
Nanxiâs relationship with Yan Chenqing was of a lower level compared to that with Bai Yuchuan and Zhang Mu.
She had heard that Yan Chenqing and Lan Qiqi were classmates in junior high school for a year, but she was not sure whether Lan Qiqi liked Yan Chenqing.
Yan Chenqing now has a girlfriend.
From Nanxiâs point of view, it was probably just for fun.
Because he hadnât brought her to meet everyone, it meant he wasnât serious!
Yan Chenqing was playing with a lighter in his hand.
He craved a cigarette but he was in a hospital, so he had to endure the urge!
âThis ward is pretty nice!â Yan Chenqing said.
Nanxi was taken aback.
Her gaze wandered around the ward and she suddenly realized what Yan Chenqing meant and why he chose to stay.
With a light cough, Nanxi said, âDonât overthink it, there were no regular rooms left, my cousin⦠my cousin knows Doctor Gui hereâ¦â
Nanxi bit her lip.
She couldnât tell her lie convincingly or speak the truth confidently because both the lie and the truth would hurt people!
âNanxi, do you like Weihuan?â Chenqing asked.
Nanxi was startled, then nodded, âOf course!â
âAlright then!â
Yan Chenqing put the lighter in his pocket and said to her, âIâll remember what you said today for Weihuan.
I trust you, and Iâm also conveying his trust to you on his behalf.
Nanxi, if there are difficulties, we should all carry them together, understand?â
There was a sorrow deep in Nanxiâs heart, but she didnât know how to express it to Yan Chenqing.
Yan Chenqing stood up and took an empty cup from the bedside, poured a glass of boiled water for her, and then said, âGo to bed early.
I was just joking with you.
Sister Qiaoqiao called us.
Iâm sorry, the joke seemed to have gone a bit too far!â
Nanxi was in shock, disbelief written all over her face.
Yan Chenqing was already heading towards the door, âNanxi, get better.
Donât worry, we will keep your illness a secret from Weihuan!â
Nanxi nodded her head, âThank you!â
After Yan Chenqing closed the door, his face changed.
He saw a nurse walking by with a tray in her hand.
Something seemed to occur to him and he grabbed her arm, âCan I ask you something?â
The young nurse was shocked by the handsome man who suddenly grabbed her, her heartbeat racing.
My God, heâs so handsome!
Itâs my lucky day, seeing so many handsome guys in a row!
Yan Chenqing pointed to Nanxiâs ward number and said, âMy friend is staying in there.
I would like to know whose name is on her admission formâ¦â
The nurse was a bit confused.
She couldnât figure out why this guy was asking about thisâ¦
Yan Chenqing explained, âWellâ¦actually, itâs like this: The person staying there is not just anyone, sheâs my sister.
Someone brought her to the hospital when she got sick and even arranged a VIP ward for her.
Anyway, I canât let someone else pick up the bill, so I want to know who helped, so that I can thank them personally.
Could you help meâ¦
check?â
The nurse was skeptical, but she also thought there wasnât anything to hide about this, so she readily answered, âNo need to check, it was Doctor Gui who signed the papers.
Doctor Gui said this is his friendâs patient, and he even instructed Nurse Zhang Li to take good care of her, without any negligenceâ¦This is the first time Doctor Gui has instructed someone so meticulously, so I remember it clearlyâ¦â
Yan Chenqingâs lips tightened and he thanked the nurse.
Doctor Gui?
Could it be true that heâs a friend of Sister Qiaoqiaoâsâ¦
â¦
The next morning after her IV was complete and the nurse had removed the needle, Nanxi felt as if she had narrowly escaped death, finally it was all over!
The nurse said, âPeople with thin blood vessels suffer like this.
I have a cousin who cries every time she gets an injection, you are very brave!â
Nanxi smiled bitterly.
This is considered brave?
Should she be crying out in pain like a child?
Thatâs too much!
Nanxi wanted to use the restroom.
The nurse offered to help her, but she refused, thinking she was fine.
The nurse didnât insist, thinking that a bit of fever shouldnât be a problem for such a small task like using the restroom.
However, as soon as she got out of bed and took a few steps, she heard the door open.
By the time she reacted, her arm had already been grabbed.
She looked up to see Lu Yinchu.
âWhy are you up?â His voice was very soft, but Nanxi still detected some anger in his tone!
Nanxi thought that he probably assumed that she was wasting time instead of resting properly since she was ill.
Yes, wasting time, exactly!
Since he was her âfake boyfriendâ now, she needed to introduce her as his âfake girlfriendâ to his parents over the Dragon Boat Festival in less than a week.
He must have a lot of preparations to make, and her illness was only slowing down the process!
Although her explanation seemed a bit far-fetched, she found it more plausible than the reason that âLu Yinchu cares for her, feels sorry for herâ.
Nanxi thought her reasoning has improved by leaps and bounds!
âUmâ¦I need to use the bathroom!â
Nanxi spoke softly, trying to pull her arm out of his grasp, but without success.
