Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

There's no room for discussion then.

"Hey? Zixiao? What are you doing? I'm hanging up if there's nothing else." Yuche urged again.

Zixiao held the phone further away, deliberately adjusting her tone to one of anxiety: "Yuche, Yuche, something terrible has happened!"

"Whoa! What are you yelling about! Are you a child? Calm down!"

Yu Che was startled, thinking that Zi Xiao was really immature and not steady at all. What was the matter that made her so anxious?

Zixiao gathered her emotions again and shouted, "Waaaaah! Come quick! My brother suddenly fainted! He's in the hospital and his condition is terrible... Waaaaah, Yuche, come quick..."

Then he hung up the phone.

???

Before Yu Che could recover from his daze, Yu Zhe was stunned.

"Zixiao, what are you saying!" Yuzhe was on the verge of tears. "Quickly, call Yuche back and explain it to her. You know what kind of person that child is. If she comes here without knowing the truth, she'll probably tear the hospital down!"

"Fighting back is fine," Zixiao chuckled. "But has brother agreed to be hospitalized yet?"

"Agreed! Agreed! Whatever you say, let's keep things stable on her side first!"

“Good that you agreed.” Zixiao nodded. “But I’ll call her back later. Don’t say anything, brother. This is also a punishment for Yuche. She didn’t even notice that you came to the hospital alone before. We’re all accomplices.”

No sooner had I said that than Yu Che called me back.

After Zixiao answered the phone, she heard Yuche's somewhat lifeless tone: "Oh... just now..."

The phone slipped and broke, and getting a new one took a bit of time, but Su Zixiao… I still need to make something clear to you.”

It seems that Yu Che is now in a completely dark state: "I'll allow you to say it again. If what you just said is true, then I will protect my brother at all costs. But if you're using this kind of thing... using my brother's physical condition to scare me, to joke... Su Zixiao, this is not something that can be resolved with just one stab."

Yu Zhe remained silent, but he still gasped. Hadn't his two younger sisters become much more harmonious over the years? Hmm? Wasn't that right?

"That's terrifying." Zixiao wasn't scared at all. "I also think that's a bit much. Let me make it clear first, my brother is fine, but it's a fact that he came to the hospital this morning, and he did it without telling us!"

She emphasized the word "concealed" very much.

Zixiao glared at Yuzhe again, and Yuzhe smiled bitterly and looked away.

Upon hearing the words "Brother is alright," Yu Che immediately reverted to his dark state.

Phew~ thank goodness. If something had really happened to my brother, Yu Che would have dragged a lot of people down with him!

Don't downplay it like that, it's terrifying!

But she was still very uneasy: "Went to the hospital? Why? Was he going to see a patient?"

"No, it was my brother who came here because he needed to see a doctor. Although it's just anemia, he's really feeling unwell. And before this, he had come to the hospital by himself many times. Did you know all this?"

After a brief silence on the other end of the phone.

She finally snapped: "What did you say?! Where's my brother?! Let him answer the phone!!"

......................

It took a full ten minutes to explain the whole story to Yu Che.

Of course, this time Yu Zhe personally answered the phone to explain to her. What else could he do? Given Yu Che's condition, Yu Zhe had no choice but to step in personally.

Yu Che understood what had happened over the phone: "Hmm, I see, that's how it is. But, unlike Zi Xiao, my opinion on this matter is just one sentence. Do you want to hear it, brother?"

Yu Zhe had already been scolded enough to ignore it all day: "Just one sentence? Go ahead and say it."

After a brief pause, Yu Che's voice on the phone was calm: "Well, just one sentence: if anything happens to you, brother, I won't live either, okay?"

"I understand...I understand...I'll definitely tell you next time something comes up."

Wow, isn't that sentence incredibly concise? It elevates the entire conversation to a whole new level!

How could Yu Zhe not understand?

After chuckling softly, Yu Che instructed, "As for the arrangements, brother, just listen to Zi Xiao for now. Whether something happens or not, it's always good to be hospitalized for treatment first. Hmm... I'll talk to the hospital first, and then I'll come to find you. Go and rest in your ward."

"Hey, you don't need to come over? Aren't you very busy?"

"I'm not busy, and even if I were, there's nothing more important than you."

"No ..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Yu Che hung up the phone.

Clearly, she shared Zixiao's attitude; there was no room for further discussion regarding Yuzhe's issue.

Next, she faced Zixiao, who was holding a medicine bottle.

"Alright, brother, I'll take you to the ward. Don't worry, Yu Che sent me the information. There are plenty of rooms available at the hospital right now, and we can easily get a private room. It won't be difficult for you."

That's right. Yu Zhe doesn't really like interacting with strangers, so a private room would be perfect.

But that's not the real problem!

Lu Ling and Lu Yao followed from a distance, and saw that the other two girls had finally found their way over.

Unlike Qin Ruoke's composure, Xiao Lizhi immediately pounced on him: "Waaah! Brother Yuzhe, I'm so tired from running! And are you alright!"

"You should at least put your words of concern before saying how tired you are! And don't linger over here, can't you see the medicine bottle? It's going to cause the injection to fail!"

With a bang, Zixiao slapped Xiaolizhi aside: "Xiaolizhi~ let's not do anything silly for now. Your brother isn't feeling well. I believe you're not right in the head, but I also believe your eyesight is fine."

"Um...no...no problem." Little Lychee said humbly, and then quietly followed behind.

Zixiao is like a cat guarding its food today; you can't mess with her at all.

"Are you feeling better? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"

Yu Zhe smiled and said to Qin Ruoke's thoughtful concern, which was as gentle as a mountain stream: "I'm much better now, and thank you, Ruoke."

Yu Zhe knew that Zi Xiao knew he was here, probably because Qin Ruoke had "tattled" on him.

Yu Zhe might have been a little resentful just now, but now he's just very grateful to her.

Looking at the girls around him, Yu Zhe suddenly felt...

It seems nice to have someone care about you?

18. You scared me!

What could Yu Zhe do? Since everyone wanted him to be hospitalized, he had no choice but to accept it.

Qin Ruoke and Xiao Lizhi needed to return to school before their afternoon classes, so they went back first.

But no matter who it was, they all gave Yu Zhe a lot of instructions before leaving, which really gave him a headache.

Yu Zhe easily obtained the hospital admission procedures and was arranged to the best ward, which was not only a private room but also had a nurse on a one-on-one basis.

However, the nurse ultimately did not come to the ward because Zixiao said she didn't need one; she felt she could take care of Yuzhe herself and didn't need a nurse.

To put it bluntly, she was actually just preventing strange women from coming into contact with Yu Zhe, not even nurses!

Under Yu Che's arrangement, at noon

Yu Zhe immediately felt what VIP treatment meant, as even the dean came to personally greet him.

But there are no VIPs in the hospital. Who would want to come to the hospital for no reason? Yu Zhe just wanted to go home as soon as possible.

The ward faces the sun, is spacious, clean, bright and simple, and has three beds. Although all the beds are empty except for the one where Yu Zhe is sitting on the edge.

Yu Zhe looked down at his hospital gown, which was too big and flimsy, and complained to Zi Xiao with a helpless flick of his sleeves.

"Zixiao, Zixiao, let's go home early, okay? I'm really fine. It doesn't matter where I rest, why do I have to stay in the hospital? It's so depressing."

"No, there's no room for negotiation. We need to rest here for at least a few days."

Zixiao sat on a chair next to the bed peeling an apple, her attitude very clear: "Although it doesn't matter where you rest, I can't supervise you when you're home. What if you stay up late again tonight, brother?"

"Then I promise I won't stay up late anymore, okay?"

“No.” Zixiao put down the fruit knife. “Brother, you have to eat at least two apples a day from now on, and go to bed no later than 11 p.m., and… well, never mind, I’ll make sure you do all of that.”

"Supervision? Zixiao, don't tell me you're going to stay with me at the hospital too?"

"Isn't that a given?"

"..."

Alright, alright, this is really a disaster. Yu Zhe thinks it's best to stay in the hospital for a few days and admit that he was wrong to keep his health condition a secret from them.

"Here, have an apple."

What Zixiao handed over was a dozen or so apple slices, cut quite evenly, placed on a small plate, with a small fork on top. She really put a lot of thought into it.

It was at this very moment that Yu Zhe was comfortably eating an apple.

The door to the ward was pushed open forcefully.

If anyone else were to come in, no matter who it was, they would need to knock. Yu Zhe knew without even having to guess who it was who could just walk in without knocking.

"Brother, are you alright? Are you still dizzy? Do we need to go to a better hospital?!"

"No need! And you, stop right there!"

It's true, as soon as Yu Che entered the door, he pounced on Yu Zhe without stopping at all.

Fortunately, Yu Zhe had Zi Xiao as a shield; just a glance from her was enough to stop Yu Che.

"Let me go! Nothing can stop my love for my brother!"

"Alright, alright, stop fooling around, your brother needs to rest." Zixiao pushed her back.

Yu Che, being small and weak, was no match for Zi Xiao. After standing still, she looked at Yu Zhe with teary eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.

I'm so glad my brother is alright. Even though I called several times to confirm he was okay, I was still terrified and felt like the world was ending.

Yu Che finally felt relieved when she saw Yu Zhe's face.

"Did they come from the East City?" Yu Zhe asked.

"Ah."

"Actually, it's not necessary."

"If I'm hospitalized, won't you come rushing over, brother?"

“If that were the case, I would definitely get here faster than you, and I wouldn’t let you have a chance to be hospitalized before then.”

"I'm sure I'll get here a second faster than you, brother!"
