105: Chapter 102: Her Fear, His Heartache_1 105: Chapter 102: Her Fear, His Heartache_1 ââ¦Can we not use the needle!â
It wasnât a question, but an affirmative statement!
An uncontestable and indisputable tone!
Gui Xi laughed, âYinchu, current medical practices have not yet evolved to the point where we can infuse these drugs into the veins without using a needleâ¦â
Lu Yinchu ignored him, stretched his hand to hold Nanxiâs wrist, and spoke coldly once again, âI saidâ¦no needle!â
Recalling the earlier sight of Nanxiâs bruise-covered forearm, Gui Xi sighed in sympathy, âFineâ¦no needle then.
Youâre the paying customer.
If you say no needle, then no needle it is!â
Nanxi pursed her lips and quickly asked, âWhatâ¦If I donât use an IV fluid needle, can I still be discharged smoothly tomorrow morning?â
Gui Xi stood up, smiled, and shrugged, âYou should not be asking me this question!â
Nanxi withdrew her arm from Lu Yinchuâs palm.
It was so easy because the man never really held onto itâ¦
It seemedâ¦he was indeed feeling some concern!
Nanxi returned her arm to Gui Xi, âDoctor Gui, sorry for the trouble!â
Gui Xi glanced at the gloomy-faced Lu Yinchu and then at the determined-looking Nanxi.
Smiled and bent down.
âCan I switch to my other arm?â
Despite agreeing to the IV, Nanxi was still a bit fearful.
Gui Xi raised an eyebrow, âOf course!â
Nanxi let out a quiet sigh of relief, then withdrew her right arm and extended her left.
By then, Lu Yinchu had already stood up and moved towards the couch.
Some scenes were too heartrending for him to bear witness toâ¦
By the time the fluids were administered, it was already past six in the evening.
Mo Yan brought dinner.
This time, for both of them.
Lu Yinchu sat with Nanxi as she ate.
During the meal, neither of them spoke a word.
The silent atmosphere felt awkward but oddly harmonious, making one unwilling to break the silence.
Nanxi went to sleep quite early.
She did not know when Lu Yinchu left because he stepped out to answer a phone call.
She did not know if he returned after the call or how long this man sat by her bed.
Naturally, he didnât want her to know either.
The next day around ten in the morning, Yang Su, Lan Qiqi, Bai Yuchuan, and others came to the hospital to pick up Nanxi.
The large group headed to the Liang Familyâs home.
Liang Youquan, knowing that Nanxiâs friends were coming, prepared plenty of dishes.
Liang Qiaoqiao was also there, and naturally, the happiest was the old lady!
However, the old lady had not known that Nanxi had fallen ill.
She only found out when she was being discharged, which upset her.
It took Nanxi quite some time to console her before she was finally at ease!
While everyone was celebrating at the Liangâs dining table, security guard Xiaoqiang distinctly noticed a black luxury sedan parked at the entrance of the apartment complex for a while before slowly driving away.
Considering that previously at the time Nanxi called out Liang Qiaoqiao for leading on multiple suitors, he assumed it was her boyfriendâs car and looked at it with resentment from start to finish!
Nanxi stayed at the Liangâs for two days, and then got up early on the 29th to return to the school.
Not for any particular reason, but because on that day, Yang Su had her defense!
Yang Suâs defense was in the afternoon.
Everyone had lunch together.
Han Baobao had just returned and joined them.
Yan Chenqing also appeared, not avoiding them, but he brought along his new girlfriend.
After looking at her, Nanxi felt that the girl was very pretty, truly a beauty.
Moreover, it was obvious that she was completely smitten with Yan Chenqing.
Yan Chenqing was decisive, his word was law.
Throughout the entire meal, she stayed docilely by his side.
In the midst of this, Nanxi went to the restroom.
Han Baobao said sheâd go with her.
Ever since Lu Yinchu went to the dorm, Nanxi had felt awkward whenever she encountered Han Baobao.
Thank goodness, Baobao never asked her anything about Lu Yinchu!
In the restroom, Han Baobao grabbed Nanxi and asked her, âNanxi, where do you think I lose out to that goblin?â
Nanxi choked up.
She truly did not know how to respondâ¦
Han Baobao appeared dejected, tears pooling in her eyes, âThis is too unfair, Yan Chenqing, you allâ¦
you all are being awfully unfair to meâ¦â
What Han Baobao referred to as âunfairâ actually wasnât limited to Yan Chenqingâs issue.
However, Nanxi didnât think so far, she merely took out a tissue and handed it to Han Baobaoâ¦
Han Baobao had meticulously applied make-up when she heard that Yan Chenqing would come over today.
But now, all that effort was ruined.
Nanxi sighed: Love is a process of mutual pursuit, but not everyone knows when to turn around!
When they returned to the room, Yan Chenqing was no longer there.
Yang Su said heâd left with his new girlfriend.
Han Baobaoâs tears, which had stopped briefly, were once again cascading down her cheeks!
Nanxi sighed: This truly is a troublesome season!
That afternoon, before Yang Suâs defense, she received a call from her sister, Yang Jun.
Yang Jun said, âOn the day of your graduation, Iâll personally come to your school to cheer you on!â
Yang Su chuckled, âCheering on is secondary.
What about you and your husband?
You canât always be so busy with work.
When will you give me a little niece or nephew?â
On the other end, Yang Jun remained silent.
Yang Su sighed, âSister, women donât need to be so strongâ¦â
Zhang Mu and Bai Yuchuan came to encourage Yang Su.
Zhang Mu, always having a sharp tongue, joked, âSusu, make sure you donât get nervous.
If you fail, you shouldnât be scared.
Although youâre not a beauty queen, I believe that you could still find a decent enough man to support you in the future.
Believe me!â
Yang Su promptly dealt him a punch, âWho said I needed a man to support me?â
Rubbing his sore spot, Zhang Mu crinkled his brow, âAre you saying youâll be supporting a man instead?â
Yang Su snorted, âWell, who knows, maybe when I have money, Iâll keep a bunch of young handsome men.
Iâll take a different one out each day!â
Zhang Mu, being the joker he is, pricked up his ears, âCount me in then, Iâm not asking to be the comforter; even being one of the concubines would work for me!â
Yang Su gave him a murderous glare, âWant to try out flying side-kicks?â
Nanxi chuckled at their banter.
Despite Zhang Mu not being serious at times, he and Yang Su made a truly entertaining pair!
If they could be together in the future, that wouldnât actually be bad!
On the eve of the defense, Yang Su was a bit nervous.
Nanxi took her to the small stone steps on the campus for a bit of counseling, asked her some questions that her professors might ask her about her thesis.
Yang Suâs answers were mostly appropriate, for those that were not, Nanxi helped her correct.
Lastly, Nanxi said, âIn many instances, thesis defense is like an academic discussion.
Many of the professors sitting there have not seriously studied the topic of your thesis.
Those who are professionals in your field may ask you different questions compared to others â one type is generic while the other type tries to find your weak spotsâ¦
You should have no problem dealing with the first type.
As for the second type, just improvise, dodge the important and dwell on the trivial.
Trying to dodge the questions and throwing them back at the professor is also essential.
But you need to be tactful and not sound too bluntâ¦And also, let me thinkâ¦â
Yang Su was surprised by her insights, even Lan Qiqi couldnât do anything but admire quietly!
Nanxi said, âActually, thereâs not much else to it.
The rest isâ¦
mostly about your mindset.
You mustnât be nervous.
Iâve read your thesis, and it doesnât have any major flaws.
Iâve marked a few minor ones, just respond according to what Iâve advised youâ¦â
âNanxi, Thank you!â
Yang Su was so touched, she was almost in tears.
Her extremely tense nerves began to relax a little.
Nanxi smirked a bit.
The reason sheâd chosen to help Yang Su was pretty straightforward.
While Yang Su seemed carefree most of the time, she was quite timid deep down!
Like how she would cry at the sight of blood, how sheâd become anxious when things didnât go wellâ¦
Like this current thesis defenseâ¦
During the afternoon defense, when she heard the professorsâ questions, Yang Su couldnât help but respect Nanxi even more.
Everything that could be questioned, Nanxi had foreseen, so Yang Su had a smooth defense!
Upon exiting the hall, Yang Su grabbed Nanxiâs hand, excitedly praising her intelligence.
Nanxi smiled and said, âIâm not that brilliant.
Your thesis topic just happens to be something Iâm interested in, so I did some research along the wayâ¦â
That night, Nanxi was concerned about Li Weihuan, so she tried to call him.
However, the call was met with an automatic notification that the number was switched off.
She frowned but didnât overthink it, and directly went to sleep.
The following morning around eight, Nanxiâs phone rang.
The incoming call showed a series starting with 136â¦
It was from Lu Yinchu!
