"The nursing station is so far away! You've been there for three and a half hours!" Li An, unable to move due to his body condition, couldn't confront Yan Luoxi who was crossing her arms like a shrew. He could only sternly pat the bedside table.
"I chatted with them!" Now that she wasn’t afraid of him anymore, Yan Luoxi glared at Li An and said in an upright manner, even more stubborn than Li An, "Ask the special nurse outside if you don’t believe me."
“You talked to them for over three hours You must have been making up lies about me!” Due to his own unscrupulous nature, Li An thought everyone was as bad as him. But this time he guessed correctly.
"Yes," Yan Luoxi admitted without hesitation, "I’ve been slandering you for over three hours behind your back!"
“Hmm, that’s quite in line with your sneaky character,” Li An believed her this time around.
Yan Luoxi ignored his personal attack and gulped down the juice left by Li An after忽悠了三個多小時,口渴了,端起李安喝剩下的果汁,“咕咚咕咚”地灌下去。
Seeing her drinking from a cup he had used, a strange feeling stirred in Li An’s heart. His gaze towards Yan Luoxi turned deep and ambiguous.
Yan Luoxi felt uncomfortable under his odd stare and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. "This isn’t stealing food, you know. This juice will go bad if not drunk now. If you want some later, I’ll squeeze more for you."
Lian was irritated by her lack of charm and said angrily, "Rude, no manners at all! My mom wasted so many years on you!"
"Aunt Xiao Bei doesn't care about these things at all!" Upon hearing Lian mention his mother, Yan Luoxi's eyes showed a hint of melancholy. After being separated for several years, she genuinely missed Aunt Xiao Bei.
This time, Lian didn’t refute her; he knew that his mom, who had never grown up, was pampered by his dad and was even more carefree than Yan Luoxi. His dad didn't say anything about it either, while his mom was on the verge of going crazy—Lian wondered how long Old Li would endure this!
Disregarding Yan Luoxi, Lian picked up his phone and called out to have a ladies' mobile phone delivered immediately.
The wheels in Yan Luoxi's mind turned, muttering as if talking to herself, "It seems like you can't just get someone to send you a phone. I’ve observed that there are four unmarried pretty nurses at the nursing station!"
"Don’t beat around the bush with me; this phone is for you." After sparring with Yan Luoxi for so long, Lian knew exactly what she was up to—"Your sudden appearances and disappearances would be impossible without a modern communication device. I wouldn't know where to find you otherwise," he thought, recalling how close he had been to wetting the bed if it weren’t for the special nurse.
Unperturbed by being caught out, Yan Luoxi asked excitedly, "Really That’s great!" Then she haggled, saying, "Actually, you should buy me this phone because you made me fall and break it."
Lian looked at her childish demeanor, his heart softened immediately. His gaze turned loving, as he whispered softly: "Luoxi, come here to my side!"
Yan Luoxi took two steps back abruptly, looking at him guardedly, and asked, “What are you going to do”
"I'll strangle you!" What tone was she using Li An's tender feelings immediately vanished. "Go get me some water; I want to wash my face."
Yan Luoxi hurriedly nodded. Washing her face would be good; it needed to be clean for when she had to entertain guests!
Li An's secretary quickly brought a mobile phone and also a lady’s watch, the same model as his own wristwatch. Li An personally put the watch on Yan Luoxi.
"I’m not used to wearing a watch," Yan Luoxi was overwhelmed with surprise. She wasn’t stupid; she knew about couples’ watches.
"Stop being so vain, this watch is just for you to borrow for a couple of days," Li An was extremely depressed. "I just want you to have some sense of time; don't make me wet the bed while you're still out there talking and hanging around!"
Yan Luoxi knew that Li An was afraid she would once again leave her post without reason, causing him concern. She did not resist and let him put it on for her. When he released her to go, she would return the watch.
The entire afternoon, Li An’s hospital room was never quiet. During the visiting hours, his company’s supervisors and employees came; also friends who had heard about what happened rushed over—among them, Ming Zixi and Shao Junhe… In short, it was a constant stream of people coming in and out.
Yan Luoxi wasn’t very confident in showing her face to these people. Li An didn’t force her either; she just hid herself in the bathroom playing with her newly acquired, extremely advanced and expensive mobile phone.
The visiting hours finally passed. After Li An had a short nap, small nurses would keep coming into his room one after another: someone brought him medicine, someone else brought a thermometer, then someone took his blood pressure… In summary, there were many kinds of activities going on.
Yan Luoxi checked the time and realized that Zhou Guangtao was about to finish work. She knew that if she told Li An that she would go meet Zhou Guangtao, he would definitely get upset, so when Li An was busy chatting with a young nurse, she quietly slipped out of the hospital room and ran downstairs.
Once outside the hospital gate, she checked her watch. Worried about running out of time, she gritted her teeth and hailed a taxi to rush back to the company dormitory.
After getting off the taxi, Yan Luoxi hurriedly rushed to the dormitory building entrance, looking left and right for Zhou Guangtao. Suddenly, she saw He Yufan walking over from the direction of the company. She hesitated for a moment but then went up with a sweet smile on her face, calling out, "Yufan!"
He Yufan didn't expect to meet Yan Luoxi here and was slightly surprised. The setting sun cast a glow on Yan Luoxi's face, making her look radiant and very appealing.
Suddenly, He Yufan noticed that Yan Luoxi actually looked quite pretty—her big eyes were clear like the stars in the sky, not inferior to herself at all. No wonder that person was so smitten with her.
Seeing that He Yufan had lost weight and her previously bright and rosy face now lacked luster, looking somewhat listless, Yan Luoxi felt a strange pang of sorrow well up in her eyes. She held onto He Yufan's hand and apologized repeatedly, "Sorry, Yufan! I worried you yesterday because my phone broke after an unexpected incident last night."
"What happened to you last night Who did you spend the day with" It seemed that He Yufan suddenly became interested in Yan Luoxi’s situation.
"I spent the night with Zhou Guangtao and was at the hospital all day today," Yan Luoxi didn’t lie, though she deliberately omitted someone. "Yufan, I only told you part of what happened between Li An and me that day. When we have time, I will tell you the whole story, please don't misunderstand me!"
Yan Luoxi planned to find a suitable moment to tell He Yufan everything about her relationship with Li An from start to finish, but she couldn't mention taking care of Li An at the hospital right now. She was afraid that it would lead to confusion.nt, and then you ran off. Women really can’t be trusted with freedom," said Li An, feeling increasingly irritated seeing Ni Xuanyi playing happily with the dogs.Ni Xuanyi didn't know why Li An suddenl...
