Chen Jianji, who was under the covers, heard everything clearly.

The hurried footsteps came straight toward his hospital bed.

His face immediately darkened.

I have already made myself very clear.

In addition, he had just figured out why Lin Qingxue had changed this time.

Now that person has returned.

It will only increase his disgust.

The footsteps stopped beside the hospital bed.

Chen Jianji did not move.

He could feel the blanket covering him being gently touched.

But it didn't cause any stir.

Chen Jianji's eyes darkened.

He raised his hand, suddenly pulled back the blanket, and sat up.

"Lin Qingxue, I told you, you..."

The rest of his words were swallowed back down before he could finish.

Because Chan Kin-kei saw the face of the person who came.

His voice faltered.

"Young Miss?"

Chen Jianji was somewhat surprised.

"Why are you here? Weren't you stuck?"

Zhang Xinyi stared blankly at the person sitting on the hospital bed in front of her, her pupils shrinking.

His palms were wrapped in bandages, leaving only his fingers exposed.

Wearing loose-fitting hospital gowns, it was obvious that his upper body was also wrapped in bandages.

Zhang Xinyi pointed at the bandages on his body, trembling with anger, her eyes red.

"This is what you call a cold? A shot?!"

Chen Jianji then looked down at himself and quickly waved his hand to explain.

"No, don't be scared. It looks scary, but it's all just superficial injuries."

"You'll stay for one day of observation, and you can be discharged tomorrow."

These words were spoken.

Zhang Xinyi paused.

"real?"

Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, look at the medical record hanging above your bed.

Upon hearing this...

Zhang Xinyi directly reached out and picked up the medical record that Chen Jianji had mentioned.

I read it carefully from beginning to end.

Only after repeatedly confirming that everything was alright.

She then slowly placed the medical record on the table.

Upon seeing this, Chen Jianji couldn't help but laugh.

"See? I didn't lie to you."

"It's nothing serious, don't worry."

But the words had barely left his mouth.

He then saw Zhang Xinyi grab the pillow from the bed.

With bloodshot eyes, it slammed down on him.

"Serves you right for lying to me! Serves you right for always lying!"

"Is this a cold?"

"If the police hadn't called back, we wouldn't have known any of this had happened!"

Chen Jianji quickly raised his hand to block it.

"No, I just explained!"

Zhang Xinyi ignored him and continued what she was doing.

"Ouch, that hurts! I'm still injured!"

Chen Jianji could only beg for mercy.

"Serves you right!"

Zhang Xinyi cursed.

But seeing the bandages on Chan Kin-kei's body, the pillow ultimately didn't come down.

She could only throw the pillow back onto the bed.

He sat on the chair next to him, turning his face away with a sullen expression.

Seeing this, Chan Kin-kei couldn't help but move closer.

"Hey, don't be angry. At worst, I won't fight you for the chicken soup when we get back, okay?"

As he spoke, he reached out and put his hand on the young lady's shoulder, turning her body to face him.

Perhaps the other party didn't react in time.

Contrary to expectations, it was not a difficult situation to discuss.

Chen Jianji easily bent it.

But the moment Zhang Xinyi's face came into view.

Chen Jianji was stunned for a moment.

This young lady...

Cried?

"Don't touch me!"

Zhang Xinyi turned her body away, broke free from his hand, and didn't look at him.

Chen Jianji was both amused and exasperated.

"Why are you crying? I'm really fine. Haven't you looked at my medical records?"

"Who's worried about you? Don't flatter yourself!"

Zhang Xinyi raised her hand to wipe her cheek, still with her back to him.

His voice was muffled and nasal.

"Lin Qingxue is right. You always do impulsive things, which makes people worry."

Chen Jianji paused.

He knew that Lin Qingxue and Zhang Xinyi had been getting close and talking a lot during their driving lessons.

What he didn't expect was...

The other party will mention themselves to Zhang Xinyi.

Chen Jianji paused for a moment. He didn't want to know about that person right now, so he changed the subject and smiled.

"Didn't someone just say they weren't worried about me?"

Zhang Xinyi was immediately furious.

She turned around abruptly, tears still streaming down her cheeks, but her eyes held a fierce warning.

"I didn't! I didn't!"

The sound was so loud that it attracted everyone's attention.

Zhang Xinyi realized this as well, and her cheeks immediately turned red.

Chen Jianji smiled and raised his hand to apologize to the patients around him.

"I'm sorry, please excuse my poor appearance."

As he spoke, he drew the bed curtains closed.

It blocked the view of the surroundings.

Zhang Xinyi's embarrassed expression finally eased.

But she still glared fiercely at Chen Jianji.

"I don't want to talk to you anymore!"

I had just finished speaking.

The tears that were already welling up in her eyes fell again.

She reached out and wiped her face haphazardly before speaking first.

"I didn't cry!"

Chen Jianji didn't say anything, but simply tore off a piece of paper and handed it over.

Zhang Xinyi took it, her head still lowered and she didn't look up.

God knows what she went through today.

That phone call that can never be connected.

In the torrential rain, only the hotel staff kept reporting that there was a risk of mudslides and flash floods on the mountain roads.

She waited anxiously and finally received the text message.

She ran out crying to look for him, but Liu Yun and Brother Liu dragged her back to the hotel.

My phone broke again.

All they could do was watch over Liu Yun and the others' phones, calling them over and over again.

Call the police and wait.

I've done everything I could.

Yet I still feel uneasy.

Zhang Xinyi admitted that she hated this jerk.

But he really disappeared.

She couldn't accept it either.

Zhang Xinyi wiped her eyes and finally looked up.

Looking at her tear-streaked face, Chen Jianji handed her another tissue.

Zhang Xinyi took it, but didn't wipe it; she just asked a question.

"Back in school, you made a bet with me that you would help me accomplish two things."

Chen Jianji paused for a moment.

"Is there?"

Zhang Xinyi immediately became anxious.

"Yes! It's just that you ignored me, and the next day you made up an excuse that your phone was dead, just like now!"

Chen Jianji couldn't help but explain.

"I'm really out of power this time."

Zhang Xinyi turned her face away.

"I don't care!"

"Anyway, help me convince my mom to let me stay, that counts."

"There's one more..."

Zhang Xinyi turned back around and glared at him fiercely.

"From now on, you must reply to my calls and messages instantly!"

"Did you hear me!"

Chen Jianji hesitated for a moment.

"This... is a bit difficult... what if I happen to be taking a shower or something..."

"Um?!"

Zhang Xinyi's eyes gradually narrowed into a dangerous arc.

Chen Jianji had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender.

"Okay, okay, I agree."

But he still added with a smile.

"Except for force majeure."

"Chan Kin-kei!"

Bang!

A pillow fell on him this time.

There was no time to dodge.
