As darkness gradually fell outside, the small town became bustling, with vehicles and people thriving in the receding night.

Qin Shi treated the wound on Zhou Yi's lip and applied medicine to his face, and the visible redness and swelling gradually subsided.

But it was still red, making one's heart clench.

Throw away the trash, put the rest of the items in a bag, and then say, "What do you want to eat? I'll go buy it."

He spoke gently, the coldness in his eyes gone.

When Zhou Yi heard him mention eating, she realized it was already evening.

But she didn't want to eat.

She's not hungry.

After today's commotion, she lost her appetite. She just wanted to stay here and stay with her grandmother until her condition stabilized.

But even if she doesn't eat, her brother does.

Moreover, you should eat even if you're not hungry.

My brother will worry, and so will my grandmother.

She can't get sick; her grandmother is still in the hospital, she has to take care of Yuyu, and she needs to eat well.

So Zhou Yi quickly replied, "Anything is fine, I'll eat whatever you buy, brother."

He looked at her face; the pain had lessened after the medicine was applied, and there was no longer any pain in her face or eyes.

"Okay, call me if you need anything."

Zhou Yi paused, remembering that her phone was charging, and should have charged a bit by now, and said, "Okay."

She was obedient and well-behaved. He said nothing more, gently stroked her hair, and left.

As Zhou Yi watched Qin Shi walk away and disappear around the corner, she immediately said to the bodyguard, "He should have charged his phone by now. Could you please bring it to me?"

"Okay, Ms. Zhou."

The bodyguard went to get the phone, and it was returned to her shortly afterward.

Zhou Yi immediately turned on the computer.

Thirty percent of the electricity is enough.

She relaxed, checked the time, and realized it was already seven o'clock.

Time flies so fast.

She was somewhat surprised, then looked around the ward.

The doctor left the ward about two hours ago; Grandma should be feeling better now.

Grandma, Yiyi is alright, and you must be alright too.

Let's be well together.

As soon as Qin Shi got off the elevator, he headed straight out of the hospital, searching for places to eat in the county town to see which dishes were good.

His father was from Huacheng, and he grew up in Huacheng with his father. He was not familiar with Shancheng or Yu'an County.

However, he has occasionally returned to visit his grandmother in recent years, often with Zhou Yi, so he is not entirely unfamiliar with Shancheng and Yu'an County.

As he searched, he arrived at the hospital gate, found a restaurant with good reviews, hailed a taxi, and got in.

The car quickly drove forward.

As the taxi drove away, a black Mercedes stopped at the hospital entrance.

The driver quickly got out of the car and opened the back door. Shiny leather shoes stepped out, and a tall, handsome man with a chiseled face got out of the car.

He was very tall, and he was wearing a shirt and trousers that didn't match the place at all. He even had a suit jacket draped over his wrist, making him look like a CEO who had just come home from get off work.

She's less unapproachable during the day and more approachable.

His appearance dimmed all the light around him.

All the light automatically focused on him, drawing everyone's attention.

He stood outside the car, looking at the hospital gradually being shrouded in night, his eyes deep and unfathomable.

The driver closed the car door and took a bag from the trunk, handing it to Wenren Chen.

Wenren Chen took it and stepped inside.

outside the ward.

Zhou Yi sat in the chair, holding her phone and waiting quietly.

She longed to go in and see her grandmother, to stay by her side, but she couldn't.

She has to wait until tomorrow morning.

The wait was long. After Qin Shi left, no one spoke, and Zhou Yi became lost in thought.

She recalled the days she spent with her grandmother—simple, ordinary, and happy.

As she thought about those happy memories, drowsiness gradually crept in.

I went to bed late last night, woke up early this morning, didn't take a nap at noon, and then this happened in the afternoon, so I'm on edge.

As I relax now, exhaustion washes over me...

Wenren Chen carried the bag into the elevator, and with a ding, the doors opened.

He walked out and steadily headed towards Xu Fengzhen's ward.

just.

As you turn the corner, the long corridor ahead comes into view, and the figure sitting back in the chair with his head slightly bowed also comes into view.

His gaze fell on the drooping little head.

Her bun had loosened considerably, and stray hairs fell down, playfully covering her face and tickling her.

But no matter how much they scratched, the person enveloped in drowsiness could not wake up.

She was too tired.

too tired.

His footsteps became lighter and slower as he silently walked towards her.

The bodyguard saw him and was about to speak.

But upon seeing his raised hand, she immediately shut up.

He walked up to her and his gaze fell on her completely downcast face.

At that moment, he saw her entire face, her red cheeks with faint five-finger marks.

The surrounding air grew still.

In an instant, there was complete stillness, not a single living thing.

The silence was chilling.

The bodyguard sensed a terrifying aura in that instant, his heart skipped a beat, and he stood even straighter.

Wenren Chen stared at the slightly swollen face, which no longer had its usual fair complexion; it had been injured.

I'm still listless and unable to muster any energy.

He stared at the five-finger mark, the inappropriate red, and the corridor fell silent.

Zhou Yi felt a little cold as she fell asleep, especially since she couldn't sleep well sitting in the chair. So after a while, her eyelashes fluttered, and she groggily opened her eyes.

As she opened her eyes, she saw a pair of elegant leather shoes, like those displayed in luxury boutiques in prime locations in bustling cities, shoes for the wealthy to buy, sparkling and unattainable.

Zhou Yi was still not fully awake when she saw the leather shoes and she froze.

They were so stunned that they forgot who they were.

Seeing those trembling eyelashes, my eyelids slowly opened, and a pair of bewildered eyes fell into my gaze.

Wenren Chen moved, bent down, gently placed the bag on the seat next to him, and then sat down next to her.

Zhou Yi stared at the shoes, completely unresponsive, unsure whether it was a dream or reality, or even anything at all.

Her mind went completely blank.

But as the shoe moved, his footsteps moved away.

Her large eyes followed the movement of the leather shoes, then upwards, seeing a sea of ​​long legs, and then upwards again, she saw that face that was utterly infuriating.

In an instant, Zhou Yi regained consciousness.

She stood up abruptly: "Sir!"

As soon as she stood up, Wenren Chen sat down in the chair next to her, crossed his legs, and stared at her with his deep eyes: "Sit down."
