I'm crazy, don't mess with me. I just love to pretend to be crazy, remember that.

Inside the hospital.

After waking up, Ji Mingxuan looked at Si Qian sitting in front of his bed, took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Teacher Si!"

"put."

Thinking of his pet, Ji Mingxuan gritted his teeth in anger: "Are you that short of money?"

What is this nonsense?

She must be short of money!

Si Qian: "Do you know what it means for people to die for wealth and birds to die for food?"

Ji Mingxuan pounded the bed: "You damn professor, you leave no trace of your work, you pluck feathers from a passing goose!"

"..."

Seeing that Si Qian remained silent for a long time, Ji Mingxuan tried to grab Si Qian's hand, but Si Qian dodged it directly.

Ji Mingxuan's face stiffened for a moment, and the boy looked like a lost puppy abandoned by its owner, his eyes lowered in dejection.

"Teacher Si, why are you avoiding me? I really like you."

They'd rather turn me into a specimen.

Si Qian secretly grumbled to herself.

"Ms. Si, are you looking for a man?"

"I don't need one, but if you do, I can share one with you."

"..."

Ji Mingxuan pressed on with his initial momentum, but his strength waned with each attempt, and he eventually exhausted himself.

He simply rephrased it: the boy, with an innocent and harmless face, looked up at Si Qian with starry eyes—

"Teacher Si, I can be a mistress."

Si Qian: "I'm afraid that won't work. The mistress already has someone else."

Ji Mingxuan: "Teacher Si, I don't mind being the fourth mistress."

Si Qian: "No, Xiao Si is already with someone."

Ji Mingxuan: "Actually, being the fifth child is also fine."

Si Qian: "Uh... Xiao Wu has one too."

Ji Mingxuan gritted his teeth and insisted, "Sixth grade is fine too!"

Si Qian stammered and hesitated, unable to give him a definite answer for a long time.

Ji Mingxuan broke down on the spot: "Damn it, even sixth grade isn't my turn?"

"..."

嗐!

She's taken on so many stand-in jobs that she's lost count of how many domineering CEO/ideal love characters she's played.

The boy spoke angrily, his words laced with uncontrollable sarcasm:

"You've taken off Kong Yiji's long gown."

Si Qian remained noncommittal; she was serious about making money.

"Teacher Si, do you really not like me?"

The boy clutched the bed sheet in his hand, his fine hair obscuring the gloomy and obsessive look in his eyes. Undeterred, he asked again.

Si Qian seemed to have heard something amusing.

like him?

Wow!

Si Qian's tone was particularly exaggerated: "Don't you have any self-awareness about your own character?"

Ji Mingxuan asked curiously, "What kind of person am I?"

Si Qian: "When you love someone, you take off their clothes one by one; when you don't love them, you stab them one by one with a knife. When you love someone, you're together all the time; when you don't love them, you're scattered all over the refrigerator."

The room full of animal carcasses is the best proof.

She was just saying she wanted to die; she didn't actually want to die.

That's how you see me?

Ji Mingxuan never expected that this was the image he had in Si Qian's mind: "Teacher Si, wouldn't it be better if we stayed together forever, talking about poetry and distant places?"

I declined.

"When in love, it's poetry and distant places; when not in love, it's corpses and the police. When in love, it's staying together forever; when not in love, it's hiding corpses in boxes."

"I really can't love it at all."

As she spoke, Si Qian felt a chilling wind.

She shivered from the cold, rubbing her arms as she went to close the window. Only then did she realize that the source of the cold air was Ji Mingxuan, who was sitting on the bed.

"Teacher Si, I know you work as a stunt double for many people in the industry."

Si Qian, who had been calm and composed, suddenly changed her expression: "What are you going to do?"

Damn it!

How come he found out so early on after we kept it a secret for so long?

"It's all the same no matter who you're doing it for, why not do it for me too? I'll give you this amount."

As he spoke, Ji Mingxuan spread out his five fingers.

Si Qian's eyes lit up: "Fifty million?"

Ji Mingxuan smiled mischievously: "It's five thousand."

Si Qian frowned deeply, almost thinking she had misheard: "Five thousand yuan?!"

"A domineering beggar fell in love with me?"

Ji Mingxuan: "..."

-

The group of people who rushed to the hospital after hearing the news of Ji Mingxuan's collapse were almost at the door when Fu Xiao suddenly suggested buying some things to take them over.

After all, it wouldn't be appropriate for a group of people to come empty-handed.

And so, Director Zheng used his own funds to let everyone go shopping.

Supermarket fruit section —

Sheng Chi picked out a box of cherries, Lü Yao brought a box of pears, Gu Shiyu took out milk, and Liu Ye and Fu Xiao bought snacks.

Mu Weiyue and Li Chuanze, who were carrying several sandwiches, approached and saw that Pei Li's hands were empty and his eyes were still searching around. They couldn't help but ask, "President Pei, what are you looking for?"

Pei Li: "Find the old lady."

Lu Yao asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why are you looking for that old lady? The fruit here doesn't seem very fresh; we need to pick it carefully. Mr. Pei, do you know how to choose?"

Pei Li: "I always wait until the older women have finished choosing, and then I secretly take their money."

Liu Ye gave him a thumbs up: "Won't you be discovered?"

Pei Li said in a serious tone, "Yes, once I was discovered and almost got beaten into a foldable screen and put into recycling."

Everyone: "..."

[He's settled in Bengbu; it seems he's been secretly visiting a shady area.]

[To be honest, this method works well for young people, but it just makes you more likely to get beaten up.]

My selection criteria: good-looking [facepalm]

[Hilarious! I also secretly took what other people had picked out and put in my basket.]

A group of people rushed to the hospital, just as Si Qian came in from outside carrying the medicine she had prepared.

The bitter and strong medicinal juice instantly filled the room, which smelled faintly of disinfectant.

Ji Mingxuan almost ejaculated on the spot when he smelled the odor.

The others also looked constipated and were holding their breath.

"Oh my god, what's that smell?!"

Fu Xiao couldn't help but complain first, and the rest of the group nodded in agreement.

Really disgusting.

"Shut up! This is traditional Chinese medicine prescribed by an elderly Chinese-American doctor; it's perfect for conditioning the body!"

As she spoke, Si Qian handed the medicine to Ji Mingxuan.

Ji Mingxuan frowned as he looked at the bowl of dark, black medicine, large chunks of dregs clearly visible inside: "Didn't you filter it?"

"Hey, I couldn't find any filters, so you'll have to make do with this."

Ji Mingxuan scooped up a spoonful, and just as he was about to suppress his nausea and drink the medicine, he saw the cockroach that had been scooped up in the spoon and their eyes met.

[Oh my god! Oh my god! A cockroach fell into the poison!!!!]

【Jiu Min! I'm getting goosebumps!】

[I'm about to throw up, Director Zheng, please don't give me a close-up! I'm eating!]

Ji Mingxuan was startled and quickly threw the cockroach in the bowl onto the ground, questioning Si Qian, "Is this the medicine you brewed?!"

Seeing Xiao Qiang lying on the ground, Si Qian slapped her grandson across the face.

Snapped!

"What cockroach! It's called an American cockroach!"

"These are medicinal herbs!"

What a clueless person!

At this moment, Liu Ye nodded in agreement: "There are indeed medicinal cockroaches that can promote blood circulation, nourish yin, and regenerate tissue..."

Ji Mingxuan, still somewhat doubtful after being slapped, was just then handed the medicine back to him by Si Qian.

"Drink it quickly, I spent so much time making it!"

Ji Mingxuan gritted his teeth, suppressed his nausea, and drank the medicine in one gulp.

The cockroach that Ji Mingxuan had just thrown on the ground suddenly moved under everyone's watchful eyes, then struggled and ran out of the ward door—

"Ugh...yue!"
