In the quiet hospital room, Yunyang gently sat up from the bed, leaning slightly forward.

With a hint of cautious probing, she slowly bent down and approached Jing Min, who was sitting on a chair by the bed, fast asleep.

Her gaze was fixed on Jing Min's face, and as the distance between them shortened, her heartbeat quickened involuntarily.

Just as their noses were about to touch, Jing Min suddenly opened his eyes.

Those eyes held a calm and profound depth, like a bottomless pool.

Yun Yang recoiled as if struck by lightning, her face filled with panic.

Their eyes met in mid-air.

For a moment, the air in the ward seemed to freeze.

Standing outside the door, Chu Wuyang took in everything.

Her eyes widened involuntarily, her breath caught in her throat, and her heart leaped into her throat.

Jingmin is a very light sleeper and is as alert as a cheetah ready to pounce on its prey at any moment.

This time, she witnessed firsthand that he not only failed to notice someone approaching immediately,

After waking up, he simply stared at Yun Yang quietly, without any of his usual sharp reactions.

Just as Chu Wuyang was lost in thought, standing there dumbfounded and at a loss,

A large hand suddenly reached out from behind her.

The door to the ward creaked open.

Zhou Chen's voice, tinged with surprise and concern, then rang out:

"It's so cold outside! Why don't you go inside!"

The sudden sound was like a boulder being thrown into a calm lake.

It instantly broke the strange atmosphere in the ward.

Upon hearing the sound, Yun Yang and Jing Min inside the room turned their heads in unison.

Yunyang's gaze fell hastily on the blanket she was clutching tightly in her hands.

Her face flushed red, and she stammered:

"I just wanted to cover it up for you."

As she spoke, her eyes kept glancing at Jingmin, her fingers nervously clutching a corner of the blanket.

Jing Min's gaze paused slightly the moment Chu Wuyang stepped into the ward.

He seemed not to have heard Yun Yang's explanation at all, and his gaze went straight to Chu Wuyang.

Chu Wuyang tried her best to maintain a calm demeanor, and walked into the ward with seemingly effortless steps.

He wore a faint smile, but his eyes were unfathomable, staring intently at a certain spot in front of him.

Jingmin subconsciously followed her gaze and realized that he and Yunyang's hands were clasped tightly together without him noticing.

Yun Yang was the first to come to her senses. She reacted as if burned, quickly pulling her hand away.

The range of motion was so large

This caused a corner of the blanket to arc through the air.

Jing Min's eyes flickered for a moment, and after only a brief moment of panic, he strode towards Chu Wuyang.

His eyes held a hint of urgency and longing, and he raised his arm slightly, wanting to take Chu Wuyang's hand.

However, Chu Wuyang seemed to have anticipated this. She subtly shifted her body to the side and took a slight step back, avoiding Jing Min's hand without leaving a trace.

Immediately, a bright smile bloomed on her face, and she said in a clear and gentle voice:

"I heard last night that Miss Yun's illness had worsened again. Is she feeling better now?"

The concerned tone made it seem as if nothing had just happened.

The oblivious Zhou Chen seemed completely unaware of the subtle and awkward atmosphere that had just taken place in the room.

Hearing Chu Wuyang ask this, his face was filled with anxiety, and he hurriedly asked:

"What's wrong? Do you have a fever again? Didn't the doctor say you were all better?"

As she spoke, she rushed towards the door in a flustered manner, as if she were about to dash out to find a doctor at any moment.

He pushed hard against the door, and it swung open with a loud bang.

Just then, the doctor and nurses who were making their rounds were about to walk in, and both of them were taken aback.

Zhou Chen was extremely anxious and didn't think about anything else. When he finally came to his senses...

She immediately strode forward and reached out to pull the doctor, as if she wanted to drag him directly to Yunyang's bedside.

His brows furrowed, his eyes filled with reproach, and he spoke loudly:

"Can't you doctors take some responsibility? You made a promise, but the person got sick again last night."

When the doctor looked up, he saw Zhou Chen's wealthy and powerful appearance, and he exuded an aura of having a powerful background. He immediately knew that this was not someone to be trifled with.

Although she knew it was an unfounded accusation, she dared not slack off in the slightest. With a professional smile still on her face, she quickly walked toward Yun Yang's hospital bed.

He first carefully examined Yun Yang's complexion, then gently took her wrist to feel her pulse.

He then carefully examined her with a stethoscope, meticulously following the entire procedure, before straightening up and smiling as he said:

"Don't worry, there's really no big problem."

Zhou Chen, however, persisted, crossing his arms, narrowing his eyes slightly, and speaking with a hint of skepticism:

"Then how come you said you were sick again last night?"

The doctor, taken aback by the sudden question, looked at the nurse with a bewildered expression.

At this moment, the nurse next to him quickly chimed in:

"It was my shift last night."

She lowered her head slightly, looking somewhat nervous, and said softly:

"Miss Yun has been having nightmares."

"As you know, she is still in a period of rest and recuperation, and the quality of her sleep is very important, so I took the liberty of asking her boyfriend to come and keep her company."

As they spoke, the nurse couldn't help but steal a glance at Jing Min.

He quickly moved away, as if afraid that his action would cause some trouble.

At this moment, the nurse's thoughts drifted back to the night before last.

Miss Yun was rushed here at that time, and she was delirious with fever.
