"Yo~ Looks like someone isn't doing too badly after all~"
Not long after Song Daiyao left, Qiu Xi and the others woke up.
Seeing the empty beds, they knew without guessing that this person must have gone to the hospital early in the morning.
Without any further delay, after tidying up, they checked out and drove to the hospital.
And so, this scene of opening the door and walking in early this morning unfolded, with Zhao Huasheng online and aggrieved, begging to be fed.
"I'm a patient now, who says I'm not suffering!"
"If I say one word, my stomach won't agree."
This hard-won opportunity could not be disturbed by these people.
"Don't you have class later?"
In his words and even his eyes, he conveyed one meaning: even for my sake, you can't miss class, you must study hard.
"...Mm, it's just in time before class to see if you're still awake, so we can go to class with peace of mind."
This kid can still joke, so their situation probably isn't too bad.
They would also ask the doctor about it later.
"..."
He shouldn't have expected anything warm or caring from these leaky-mouthed brothers.
"Then we'll be leaving now."
Since the person was fine, having a bunch of people stay would just be in the way, it was better to go back to school first.
"Mm."
"Wait... Nan Hua, my family side?"
He shouldn't have said anything, right?
"No, I just called your dad and mom. Grandma didn't say anything."
"But since you're awake, you should call your uncle and aunt to let them know, otherwise they might all fly back soon."
Without thinking, Nan Hua knew what this kid wanted to ask and directly explained the situation.
"Mm! Good brother! Hurry back."
Fortunately! He was afraid his grandma would find out, that would surely make her anxious.
"Let's go."
"Daiyao, then we'll be going back too. We'll come see you again at noon."
Given their current situation, the two of them staying here would be more conspicuous than a luminous pearl.
After experiencing such a major event, it would be better to let these two talk privately.
"Mm."
...
"Xi Xi, want to go back and have breakfast together?"
"Don't you have class later?"
How could she have time to eat breakfast? Could it be... even a top student would skip class?
At the hospital entrance, Qiu Xi, who was about to get into the car, her eyes moved, and she looked at Nan Hua with an expression of disbelief.
"..."
"Do you really believe what Zhao Huasheng said in the ward just now?"
Still looking bewildered, "Why not?"
"Think about what he was doing just now!"
This person, who had been coveting her for a long time, with ill intentions and a lecherous demeanor... they were too embarrassed to expose him!
"Eating... breakfast ah..."
No, it seemed like someone was feeding him breakfast...
Alright... her thoughts were still too naive.
Nan Hua watched, reached out, and tapped Qiu Xi's forehead, "Your little brain, have you figured it out yet?"
"Understood..."
"Then shall we go back for breakfast?"
"Okay."
"Xiao Feifei, Yan Yan, let's go."
"..."
So he still remembered the existence of these two people!
Early in the morning, seeing the patient "acting spoiled" over there was one thing, they could consider it pitying the child.
But these two were a bit too much!
"Mm..."
But there was no other way! They had to go. They had eaten dog food for free, and if they had to spend money on a taxi to get back, then these two would truly be "big suckers"!
However, for their own physical and mental health, after arriving at school, the two of them slipped away immediately.
"...Look at you!"
Watching the two disappear, Qiu Xi felt a bit at a loss for words.
"My fault!"
"But... it's not up to me!"
"..."
As they walked towards the cafeteria, Qiu Xi turned her head to respond.
"As if that heart isn't yours!"
"Mm!"
Nan Hua nodded, "It's not mine, it's yours!"
"Nan Hua!"
Qiu Xi was starting to doubt herself. Was this still the person she knew?
Did love really lower a person's IQ?
"Mm?"
"Where did you learn that? Did you watch something strange?"
Compared to this strange love-IQ theory, she was more willing to believe that this person had gone to "study" properly.
It was just that his learning ability was too strong.
"Strange?"
Upholding the spirit of learning, he thought what was written in the books was quite good!
"..."
Looking at Nan Hua's serious contemplation, Qiu Xi wondered if she had hit the nail on the head.
Qiu Xi nodded vigorously, her voice a little heavy, "Good boy! Let's not look at it anymore!"
Otherwise, she might really not be able to handle it!
Thinking of the book on the bedside table, Nan Hua nodded, "Alright."
It's fine if he doesn't look, anyway, he had already memorized it and could think about it from time to time.
"Let's go, eat breakfast."
Breathing a sigh of relief, Qiu Xi walked into the cafeteria with a lighter heart.
...
In the afternoon, after attending two classes, Qiu Xi thought about the time she had agreed with Song Daiyao in the morning and felt she should go to the hospital again.
So she bought some fruit and went to the hospital.
When she arrived, it was just right, Zhao Huasheng was resting, so Qiu Xi pulled him out.
Her gaze swept towards the ward, "How is he now?"
"Mm! He's stable now. It's just that after you left this morning, the police came and asked him some more questions, and he got a bit agitated."
Thinking of what happened not long ago, Song Daiyao still felt a bit upset, and at the same time, very angry.
"It's okay, we have to trust the police."
She nodded, "Mm, actually, I'm just a bit angry at myself..."
If she had some ability to defend herself, or if she hadn't pulled Zhao Huasheng along the road last night, perhaps... no! Then such a thing would definitely not have happened, it's all her fault! "
"This can't be blamed on you, if anyone is to blame, it's those few people..."
Sensing that Song Daiyao's emotions were a bit off, Qiu Xi instinctively moved closer and hugged her.
"Xiao Xi!"
"Mm-hmm, it's okay!"
For a moment, all that could be seen was one crying sadly, while the other tried hard to comfort her.
"Alright, I'm fine now..."
After venting, Song Daiyao's mood finally improved a lot.
"Mm, here, wipe it."
"Xiao Xi, thank you!"
"It's nothing!"
"What did Zhao Huasheng's family say about him?"
Seeing that she had calmed down, Qiu Xi dared to continue asking.
"It's okay, he... anyway, they just said to take care of him until he's discharged."
"Really?"
Seeing her pause midway through her sentence, Qiu Xi was a little suspicious.
"Really! I wouldn't lie to you about something like this!"
"Alright."
Looking at the situation, it didn't seem like they were making things difficult, so Qiu Xi didn't say any more.
Anyway, if anything happened, her family was here.
As they chatted, Song Daiyao remembered something, "Oh right, actually I wanted to go back and tell you last night that my dad said the matter has been decided and they are ready to confirm with you."
Originally, the matter was not urgent, and since her daughter was home for dinner, Song Mingcheng thought he would ask his daughter to relay the message. They would find a time to sign the contract at the company, but who knew that this incident would happen.
Qiu Xi nodded after hearing this, "Okay, I know now. I'll call Uncle later."
Logically speaking, a considerable amount of time had passed, and it was indeed about time for a conclusion.
"Mm."
"By the way, Daiyao, I might have to go to your place tomorrow."
Since the contract was to be signed, she had to go and test the recipe that hadn't been put into practice yet, just in case.
Also, Old Yan was having his regular meeting tomorrow, and thinking about the love-hate entanglements she had heard from Nan Hua before, she felt it was okay to give him a send-off. After all, Old Yan was already so miserable, as a student, this small wish could still be fulfilled.
"Then I'll give you the key. Without me, you can just go ahead."
Taking the key, Qiu Xi felt a little touched, "Okay, thank you Daiyao."
However, it seemed that her always doing this wasn't the way to go. Perhaps she could consider buying a house as Xiao Hua had mentioned before.
But with so many school matters in her sophomore year, it would be better to wait until her junior year. She would let her investments grow for a while longer.
Thinking of her investments, Qiu Xi's mouth curved into a smile.
"Sister, you're welcome."
"Mm."
