Chapter 600 She's Very Well-Behaved (Twenty-Nine)
Jiang Zhizhi laughed: "Alright, go to work without worry. Don't tell your parents about this yet, or they'll worry themselves to death and come to the hospital to watch over you every day. Let the chef from Xingzhou Club cook the meals; they cook better than us."
Zhou Xiye was still feeling upset and hadn't dared to look at Shang Shang's wounds.
Jiang Zhizhi couldn't help but laugh: "You told me how many injuries you've suffered, how many times you've almost lost your life. What's Shangshang's little injury compared to that? Also, what did you say on the phone when Zhiyun was injured? You said it's normal for soldiers to get injured."
Zhou Xiye paused for a moment: "That's different, Shangshang is a girl."
Jiang Zhizhi sighed: "You're fine. Go home first, and come see Shangshang after get off work tomorrow."
...
As soon as Zhou Xiye and Jiang Zhizhi left, the three girls in the room became lively again, cursing the person who threw sulfuric acid and then cursing their own bad luck.
Shang Shang lamented that she hadn't consulted Shen Fanxing about her fortune, as she was facing such a disaster.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt he needed to find Shen Fanxing, so he called her regardless of the time.
It took Shen Fanxing quite a while to answer, and she lazily replied with a "hello".
Shang Shang chuckled: "Why didn't you tell me that I've been going through a little misfortune lately?"
Shen Fanxing yawned: "Impossible. You've been doing very well lately. Your relationship with Pei Yanli is about to take a significant turn."
Shang Shang scoffed, "I was splashed with sulfuric acid today, and I'm perfectly fine."
To everyone's surprise, Shen Fanxing wasn't surprised at all after hearing this: "Is your face not injured? Is it just a superficial wound? It's okay, it will heal with some rest. But this is a chance to turn things around, just you wait."
"I can't talk to you anymore, I'm going to sleep, I'm so sleepy. Zhou Zhiyun will be back soon if I don't sleep, bye-bye."
Before Shang Shang could speak, Shen Fanxing had already hung up the phone decisively.
Shang Shang was both amused and exasperated: "Look at her... she values her boyfriend more than her friends."
Wang Jianni looked at the doorway and suddenly murmured, "I think I know why Shen Fanxing said it was a turning point."
As soon as she finished speaking, Pei Yanli pushed open the door to the ward and walked in, somewhat anxiously: "Are you alright?"
Then I realized that I was so nervous and anxious that I forgot to knock.
Shang Shang sat on the hospital bed, looking at Pei Yanli in surprise: "How did you get here? How did you know?"
Pei Yanli felt he had been a bit abrupt and apologized to Du Mengmeng and Wang Jiani: "I heard it from Yan Lei on the phone. He was also near Guomao tonight. He said there was an acid attack there, and the victims were three girls."
When Pei Yanli heard about the hot pot restaurant, she thought of three girls, and Shang Shang was also going to eat hot pot; they were also three girls.
I tried calling Shangshang several times but no one answered, and eventually her phone was switched off.
He was even more worried, so he went directly to the police station in the jurisdiction of the hot pot restaurant, asked about the situation, and then came back. It turned out that it really was Shang Shang.
I rushed to the hospital, asked for a ward room, and came over without thinking twice.
Wang Jianni looked at Du Mengmeng and told her to take a good look at the difference between men.
Du Mengmeng rolled her eyes and pretended not to see it.
Shang Shang felt a little embarrassed that Pei Yanli had gone through all that trouble in the middle of the night: "Actually, it's nothing serious. There are two spots on my back and some on my arms. I've already applied medicine and it doesn't hurt anymore."
Pei Yanli breathed a sigh of relief. His temples were already wet. He loosened his shirt collar. After hearing about the sulfuric acid attack, he had thought about many things.
If it really is Shang Shang, and she accidentally gets disfigured, he will accompany her abroad for treatment. If she still can't be cured, he will stay with her for the rest of his life.
I can finally breathe a sigh of relief: "It's good that it wasn't serious. Did it hurt a lot at the time?"
Shang Shang smiled and said, "It's alright. It happened so suddenly that we weren't prepared. The scene was so chaotic that we didn't even feel any pain before we got to the hospital."
Wang Jianni glanced at Du Mengmeng again, then said to Shang Shang, "Shang Shang, didn't you want to eat instant noodles? Mengmeng and I will go to the convenience store near the hospital to buy some. I wanted to eat some too."
Shang Shang was stunned for a moment, and was about to say that she wasn't hungry, but Wang Jianni had already pulled Du Mengmeng, who understood what was going on, out of the room.
Pei Yanli moved a stool and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Shang Shang: "Are you hungry? Do you want me to call Yan Lei and have him bring you some porridge?"
Shang Shang quickly shook her head: "No, no, I'm not hungry. I just saw Mengmeng crying so hard, so I lied to her and said I wanted to eat instant noodles. Please don't bother Yan Lei."
Pei Yanli smiled gently: "Okay, what would you like to eat? I'll bring it to you tomorrow morning?"
Shang Shang quickly shook her head again: "No need, my mom said she'll come over tomorrow morning to bring me breakfast."
Pei Yanli suddenly felt powerless; he wanted to take care of her, but his actions were not legitimate.
Just as she was about to speak after thinking for a moment, Shang Shang suddenly said, "Can you bring me lunch tomorrow? I want to eat beef shumai from Niujie."
Pei Yanli's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled gently: "Okay, I'll bring you beef shumai tomorrow at noon."
It's not appropriate to talk about anything else in the ward.
Shang Shang is actually a considerate and thoughtful girl. She also felt that always refusing would make Pei Yanli sad. Seeing him smile, she couldn't help but smile too: "Remember to sprinkle some pepper. I like a thin layer of pepper on my beef shumai."
Pei Yanli nodded: "Okay, if you want anything else to eat, you can call me anytime."
Shang Shang smiled, her eyes crinkling, "Okay, it's getting late. You should go back and rest. Mengmeng, Nini, and I will stay together. It's very safe. And they'll take care of me."
Pei Yanli thought it wouldn't be convenient for him to stay here: "Tomorrow..."
Shang Shang immediately made a phone call gesture: "I'll call you, my phone died today."
When Pei Yanli left, Wang Jianni and Du Mengmeng each carried a bucket of instant noodles in. Du Mengmeng also had a plastic bag hanging on her wrist, containing a serving of oden.
Pei Yanli glanced at the food they had bought; it was neither nutritious nor healthy. With a sense of helplessness, he said goodbye and left.
Du Mengmeng handed the instant noodles to Shang Shang: "Your arm hurts, can you hold it up?"
Shang Shang tried it out and found it did hurt a bit when she moved around. Du Mengmeng quickly brought back the instant noodle cup: "I'll feed you. Do you want some oden? There's radish in it, which you like."
Shang Shang nodded: "Yes."
While feeding Shang Shang, Du Mengmeng asked, "Has Pei Yanli confessed his feelings to you?"
Shang Shang looked at Du Mengmeng in shock, pointed to her hospital gown, and mumbled, "Do you think this, and here, is appropriate for confessing your feelings?"
Wang Jianni chuckled: "Alright, don't teach Shang Shang your dating experience. Look at Pei Yanli, as long as you put your heart into it, what can't you accomplish? If it were Shi Jian today, do you think he would bother to go through all that trouble to find someone?"
"I'm afraid that if they heard that someone in the China World Trade Center had been splashed with sulfuric acid, they would just laugh it off and wouldn't even bother to ask about it. That's the difference between caring and not caring."
