Peerless Cupid System

Back in her hospital bed, Dou Xiaorong nodded and asked to eat something after being persuaded by Ling Ziqian.

Knowing she wouldn't eat cake, Ling Ziqian stood up, intending to buy her something else.

Unexpectedly, Dou Xiaorong waved her hand, smiled, and pointed at the cake, "This cake was specially made for me by Sister Meiren, right? I want to eat it!"

Ling Ziqian was somewhat surprised; cake and obesity were equated.

For the past few years, Dou Xiaorong has been afraid to go to a cake shop because she's worried that Yu Meiren will try to feed her cakes!

"I want to eat it! I haven't had it in ages! You can't take it from me! This cake is mine, and I'm going to eat it all in one bite!"

Chapter 40 So, hurry up and go find her!

The cake wasn't big, but it wasn't small either.

Dou Xiaorong kept her word and really did not leave any of the cream on the cake.

I ate it all up, leaving not a single piece.

After finishing her meal, she let out a burp and grinned at Ling Ziqian.

Ling Ziqian clearly sensed that Dou Xiaorong was acting strangely.

He would never believe that Dou Xiaorong eating cake was because she didn't want to waste Yu Meiren's good intentions.

"Hey, are you alright? Is your fever still not gone down?" Ling Ziqian reached out to touch Dou Xiaorong's forehead.

"You think I've lost my mind? Humph, you're the one who's lost your mind!" Dou Xiaorong pushed Ling Ziqian's hand away and retorted angrily.

"Let me touch you to see if your fever has gone down."

"No, I won't let you touch me!"

"Good girl, be a good girl."

"I won't listen to you!"

Dou Xiaorong had never resisted him like this before; it was as if she was hiding something from him.

Ling Ziqian became increasingly worried about Dou Xiaorong, who had been delirious with fever just now.

Even though Dou Xiaorong tried to stop her, she still managed to get into bed.

But Ling Ziqian forcefully pressed her down onto the hospital bed and placed his hand on her smooth forehead.

Touching Dou Xiaorong's forehead, Ling Ziqian also felt the temperature of his own forehead.

Feeling no difference, Dou Xiaorong successfully reduced her fever after spending 10 points of ambiguity.

But why...?

she cried.

Before anyone could notice, Dou Xiaorong was suddenly in tears.

"What's wrong? Did I hurt you?" Ling Ziqian was flustered and didn't know what to do.

"..." Dou Xiaorong wanted to say something, after all, she felt so sad, but she just couldn't open her mouth.

"Don't cry, don't cry..." Ling Ziqian was very flustered.

"Waaah, you idiot, you hurt me so much just now..." Dou Xiaorong complained, raising her fist and punching Ling Ziqian.

"It's my fault, don't cry, be careful of the IV tube in your hand."

"I might as well just die by accident!"

After making a fuss for a while, Dou Xiaorong got tired and curled up under the covers.

Ling Ziqian could clearly sense that Dou Xiaorong was angry.

Ling Ziqian didn't know why he was angry.

"Don't cover your head with the blanket while sleeping, it's bad for your health." Ling Ziqian reached out and pulled the blanket up.

Unexpectedly, Dou Xiaorong grabbed his hand and bit it hard.

Ling Ziqian was in so much pain he almost screamed. He shook his hand, becoming even more certain that Dou Xiaorong was angry with him.

"Is it because I hurt you just now? I'm sorry!" Ling Ziqian apologized to her.

"No need to say sorry..." Dou Xiaorong muttered.

Are you still in pain?

"It's alright... yeah right."

Of course, only Dou Xiaorong herself could hear the words "that's ridiculous."

Ling Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief and became curious, "When you were tutoring Shen Qiaoyan this morning, did anything happen? Why didn't she answer my calls?"

How would I know?

"Never mind if you don't know."

The nurse came over once to check Dou Xiaorong's temperature.

Dou Xiaorong's temperature has returned to normal, and the nurse said that she can leave after finishing this IV drip.

Ling Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that the guy was finally out of danger.

"The doctor will examine your stomach later to see how to treat your malnutrition."

"No, no..."

Dou Xiaorong was like a sulking child.

Ling Ziqian was at a loss for words, unsure how to persuade her.

After the IV drip was finished and the nurse removed the needle, Dou Xiaorong ate a cake and regained her strength. She then quickly left the ward.

She only stopped after running out of the hospital.

She was avoiding Ling Ziqian taking her to see a doctor.

When Ling Ziqian caught up with Dou Xiaorong, he was both amused and exasperated.

Unable to take her back to the hospital, Ling Ziqian had no choice but to accompany her.

Going upstairs and opening the door, Dou Xiaorong slipped inside. She was about to close the door when she said, "I'm sweating so much, I need to take a shower."

She wouldn't let him in, which surprised Ling Ziqian. "I'll make you some soup."

"No, I'm already full from eating cake."

"That……"

"Don't worry, I'm all better now, bye-bye, hee hee!"

She was about to close the door when Ling Ziqian quickly reached out to block it.

"Is there anything else?" This was an extremely unfamiliar and distant question.

“Uh…” Ling Ziqian was stunned for a moment. He scratched his head and said, “I don’t have Su Mingxi’s number. Can you give me her number?”

"You don't even have her number?" Dou Xiaorong was very surprised.

Before Ling Ziqian could answer, she went back to her room, found her phone, gave him Su Mingxi's number, and then slammed the door shut.

Ling Ziqian stood outside the door. He had known Dou Xiaorong for more than ten years, but this was the first time he had been turned away.

What exactly happened?

Ling Ziqian stood there, stunned for a long time.

Inside the room, Dou Xiaorong leaned against the door, tears streaming down her face.

She wanted to smile, to pretend nothing had happened, but she just couldn't help being angry.

He's clearly with someone else, so why is he being so gentle with me? Doesn't he care if others get jealous?

If you don't like someone, don't be so nice to them. It makes them overthink and feel terrible...

Idiot, idiot, big idiot!

Dou Xiaorong bit her hand. She knew Ling Ziqian was still standing outside the door. She didn't dare to cry out loud, afraid of being discovered and seeing how pathetic she looked.

They are fine; the problem lies with ourselves.

All along, I've been overthinking things and having unrealistic expectations, which is why I'm in so much pain now!

Ling Ziqian held his phone, wanting to call Su Mingxi and ask her to come and check on Dou Xiaorong.

But then I thought, Su Mingxi might not have the time.

Moreover, Ling Ziqian didn't believe that if he couldn't get anything out of her, Su Mingxi wouldn't be able to get Dou Xiaorong to reveal anything either.

After all, he and Dou Xiaorong had been together for over a decade!

"What do you think?" Ling Ziqian asked Huan Yue in his mind.

"As an outsider," Huan Yue pondered for a moment, "I think there's a very high possibility."

"tell me the story."

"She's jealous."

"Hmm? Who are you jealous of?"

"Of course it's you!"

"But……"

"Don't refute it yet. This is a deduction. Shen Qiaoyan isn't answering her phone. You still don't know what happened this morning."

Ling Ziqian frowned. "I'll go ask Shen Qiaoyan."

Do you know where she is?

"……do not know."

It's reached a stalemate.

"Don't worry, let's check back tomorrow."

"Ah."
