"Wrong? What's wrong?"

Jiang Che wasn't so easily fooled. He maintained his stance as if he was about to punch someone, looking down at Su Qinghe who was huddled up in a ball.

This girl is the type who never learns from her mistakes. If we don't teach her a lesson, she'll do it again next time.

Su Qinghe clutched her back tightly with both hands, her face as red as a ripe apple. "I shouldn't have disobeyed Uncle Liu... I shouldn't have strained my eyes..."

As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Jiang Che's expression. Seeing that his complexion seemed to have improved somewhat, she softened her voice and said coquettishly, "I shouldn't have made A-Che worry~"

"Anything else?"

"besides……"

Su Qinghe blinked twice, unable to think of anything, so she gritted her teeth, reached out and tugged at Jiang Che's sleeve, "Oh, Che, I really know I was wrong, please forgive me this time, okay?"

Jiang Che was just trying to scare her; he wouldn't actually lay a hand on her.

Seeing her pitiful little face, most of his anger dissipated.

"This is a one-time exception."

Jiang Che released her hand and flicked her forehead lightly. "If I find out again that you don't take your body seriously, I'll burn all your books so you won't have anywhere to learn."

"No, no, no! Please don't burn it!"

Upon hearing that the books were to be burned, Su Qinghe immediately panicked and grabbed Jiang Che's arm, refusing to let go, fearing that he would really go over and destroy the documents.

"Those are study materials that Uncle Liu went through a lot of trouble to buy. I'm counting on them to get into the top ten."

"Tsk tsk tsk."

Watching this scene, Uncle Liu couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "It's still the young master's word that matters."

He walked over and handed the water glass he had just put down back to Su Qinghe. "Young Master, you have no idea how much I've talked all morning, but Miss Su didn't listen to a word I said. Now that you're here, Miss Su is even more obedient than a kitten."

Su Qinghe took the water glass, sticking out her tongue a little shyly, "Uncle Liu, please don't make fun of me, I'll listen to you next time..."

"This isn't a joke, it's the truth."

Uncle Liu smiled and looked at Jiang Che, "Young Master, now that you're here, I won't worry about it anymore. I'm going downstairs to my car for a nap. Call me if you need anything."

"Okay, go ahead, Uncle Liu. Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Che nodded.

Uncle Liu was a sensible man. He knew that the young couple finally had some time alone and didn't want to be a third wheel, so he made an excuse and slipped away.

The ward door closed, leaving only Jiang Che and Su Qinghe in the room.

Jiang Che said he would take Su Qinghe downstairs to eat, but Su Qinghe shook her head and said she wasn't hungry and wanted to rest first.

So Jiang Che helped her sit up on the bed again, and put a pillow behind her back to make her more comfortable.

After finishing all that, he pulled up a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"Now you know you're tired? If I hadn't come at noon, were you planning to keep studying until night? Hmm?"

Jiang Che leaned forward slightly, pinching her soft cheek with a mixture of exasperation and affection. "Do you really have to go this far?"

After withdrawing his hand, his gaze fell on Su Qinghe's eyes, which had not fully recovered. His brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again. "The doctor told you to rest more, but you're like someone who wants to stick their eyeballs to the test paper."

"I didn't want to either..."

Su Qinghe held her water glass and sipped it slowly, seemingly a little unhappy. She said in a muffled voice, "But if I don't hurry up and review, I definitely won't be in the top ten in the whole school in the mock exam."

"If you don't pass the exam, you don't pass. I didn't say I wouldn't want you if you didn't pass."

Jiang Che sighed slightly. He had never intended for the class transfer to actually happen.

It seems he miscalculated. He never expected Su Qinghe to be so persistent about this matter. If he had known it would turn out this way, he would never have agreed yesterday.

"But then I can't transfer to the science class."

Su Qinghe put down her water glass and looked at Jiang Che with a serious expression. "If I don't go to the science class, I won't be in the same class as you. If I'm not in the same class as you, I won't be able to keep an eye on you all the time..."

"Stop."

Jiang Che raised his hand and made a pause gesture, both amused and exasperated. "Actually, there's really no need, Qinghe. Right now, everyone is preparing for the college entrance examination. There aren't many people who have the energy to think about love and romance."

"That won't work either."

Su Qinghe nodded emphatically, making no attempt to hide her thoughts, "Most people are indeed like that, but with so many temptresses out there, there will always be one or two who don't follow the usual path, won't there?"

"So how can I not keep an eye on things?"

"Fine, fine, you're right."

Jiang Che shook his head helplessly, reached into the cabinet, took out an apple, and picked up a fruit knife to start peeling it.

"But the prerequisite is that you have to recover your health first, right? If your eyes don't heal properly and you go blind again, going to a science class won't help. You won't even be able to see me then, so how will you defend against demons?"

Upon hearing this, Su Qinghe immediately covered her eyes in alarm. "I'll listen to you, I won't watch anymore, I'll rest now."

As she spoke, she quickly closed her eyes, leaned back, and looked like a good baby about to go to sleep.

Jiang Che looked at her adorable, dazed expression and couldn't help but smile.

How can this little yandere be so cute?

"Alright, alright, get up and eat an apple, then rest."

Jiang Che handed her the peeled apple he was holding, and then prepared to get her a cup of hot water.

Just as I stood up, a series of slightly noisy footsteps came from outside the door, which didn't sound like a single person.

Moreover, the person who came was walking very fast, as if he was in a hurry to be reincarnated.

Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the ward door.

"Knock knock knock—"

Jiang Che frowned slightly. Who would come at this time?

If Uncle Liu had left something behind, given his keen eye, he would never have returned to retrieve it at this time.

Unless it's something particularly important, I would inform him in advance via WeChat, instead of rushing over and knocking on the door like this.

If it's not Uncle Liu, then it must be a doctor or nurse? But their rounds don't usually take place at this time.

"Who is it?"

Su Qinghe chewed on the apple and looked curiously towards the door.

"I don't know, I'll go check."

Jiang Che walked towards the door, opened it, and saw a middle-aged man and woman.

The man was wearing a slightly wrinkled suit, his hair was half-gray, and his face was full of ingratiating smiles. He was carrying two fruit baskets that didn't look very cheap.

The woman was carrying a bag and two boxes of health supplements in her hand, and she looked somewhat restrained and uneasy.

Jiang Che was stunned for a moment when he saw the two somewhat unfamiliar faces.
