On the rewards for successfully defeating a boss

Yu Wangxi glanced at Chi Mu, who happened to be sitting opposite him, with an unfriendly look on his face, and his eyes were full of vigilant scrutiny.

Time passed quietly in the quiet room, accompanied by the warm sunshine and the occasional sound of Zhong Yi turning pages.

Chi Mu sat on the sofa, doing nothing, just staring at Chen Qian who had fallen asleep at some point.

Yu Wangxi was bored, so he went to Zhong's side and asked him for a book and started reading together.

It was a book about the characteristics of a Miao village, one of the topics Zhongyi and Chen Qian had chosen for their next study. Yu Wangxi skipped through the pages, his interest waning, and he barely held the book before he started playing with his phone.

The story was almost over, and Chi Mu's eyes had never left Chen Qian, so he naturally noticed it at the first moment.

He whispered, "The drip is almost finished. I'll go out and call someone in." Then, without waiting for Zhong Yi and Yu Wangxi to respond, he left the ward with light steps.

As soon as Chi Mu stepped out, Yu Wangxi moved right after him.

He poked Zhong Yi's arm and said in a muffled voice, "Hey, when did he come?"

"Earlier than me." Zhong answered briefly without raising his head.

"Then when did you come?" Yu Wangxi turned his head and asked relentlessly.

"Before nine o'clock."

"He came right after we left!" Yu Wangxi said in a slightly louder voice, questioning, "What do you mean by lonely? His wife isn't with him?"

"Yeah." Zhong Yi responded softly, then reminded Yu Wangxi, "Shhh..."

The next second, the door was opened and a nurse in white stepped in first, followed by Chi Mu, who was much taller than her.

"Next, you still have to take your medicine on time." The nurse handled the infusion pump skillfully while giving instructions.

"Okay, thank you." Chen Qian watched her movements without moving, and then asked, "When can you be discharged from the hospital?"

"Just observe for a few more days, and you can be discharged if there's no problem." The nurse's tone was steady and quick. As she finished speaking, she packed up all her things and left the ward in a hurry.

As soon as she left, Yu Wangxi shouted, "When you are discharged from the hospital, can we go out and have some fun together?"

Chen Qian held a cotton swab in his hand, close to the tiny needle hole on the back of his hand. He did not rush to answer Yu Wangxi, but asked Zhong Yi first.

"Well... Zhongyi, do we have any urgent work to deal with?"

"No, you need psychological counseling." Zhong Yi replied calmly.

"Psychological consultation?" Yu Wangxi was a little confused. Even though he was usually heartless, his brows were filled with worry. He stood up and took Chen Qian's hand. "Let's wait until your consultation is over. After all, you've been in the mountains for so long."

On the mountain? What mountain?

Chen Qian couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds.

Although he also knew that Yu Wangxi would not know what exactly happened, but now it seems that Yu Wangxi probably didn't even have a general idea, and was simply being brushed off by his brother with excuses.

I just don't know what happened to him, the protagonist, in this story made up by Yu Wangze.

He remained silent and quietly sent a distress signal to Chi Mu. After seeing Chi Mu's barely perceptible shaking of his head, he casually said, "It's okay. It will be easier to recover with someone by my side. Besides, my condition isn't serious. Chen Tian just cares too much about me."

"That's right. Let's go out for a walk together and relax." Yu Wangxi's thick nerves didn't let him think too much. After Chen Qian's few words, he immediately relaxed. His gloomy face instantly changed to a bright glow. "Zhong Yi, let's go too, huh? It's more fun when there are more people."

"can."

"But Zhongyi, don't you still need to find a story? It doesn't matter if it's later, right?"

"Well, that's enough time."

The three of them started chatting away. Although most of the time it was Yu Wangxi who talked, Chen Qian responded, and Zhong Yi gave interjections, the atmosphere was unusually harmonious.

The harmony was so harmonious that even Patient No. 2, who was sitting alone at the other end of the room, was unable to interfere at all.

"I'm leaving." Zhong Yi looked up at the clock on the wall to confirm the time, then silently packed up his schoolbag. It has always been his habit to take reference books and notebooks that he might need when going out.

Chen Qian has always been very disapproving of this habit. After all, if an e-book can do the job, why bother carrying so many heavy paper books when going out?

But Zhongyi himself will always say only three words: different.

He never explained to Chen Qian the specific differences.

After seeing Zhong Yi off, Yu Wangxi started preparing lunch for Chen Qian.

"I brought you a surprise today." He said excitedly, but his eyes glanced at Chi Mu, "I left it in the car and forgot to bring it up. Wait a moment, I'll go down to the garage to get it for you."

"Well, you didn't ask Sun Cheng to make lunch for me and bring it over, did you?"

"..." Yu Wangxi paused as he stood up. He asked tentatively, "Can you read minds?"

"Are you sick? I can guess it from your expression. You almost wrote the words down and stuck them on your face." Chen Qian scolded with a smile, urging Yu Wangxi to leave quickly and not to starve himself.
