Shu Bai supported Li Yuheng, who suddenly collapsed, and his arm instantly bore most of the other's weight.
He frowned slightly and looked down at Li Yuheng, who was leaning on his shoulder with his eyes closed and looking "painful".
Just now... given Li Yuheng's physique, would he really be seriously injured by a basketball?
Instinct told him that something was amiss.
But the slight redness on Li Yuheng's forehead and his weak breathing made Shu Bai's doubts subside with a barely perceptible worry.
What if? After all, it's the head.
"Li Yuheng?" Shu Bai patted his face. "Can you hear me?"
"Ugh... Xiaobai, I'm so dizzy..."
Li Yuheng closed his eyes and rubbed his head against the crook of his neck, his voice barely audible.
Shu Bai frowned and immediately half-carried, half-lifted Li Yuheng to sit down on a bench by the roadside.
"Hang in there." Shu Bai quickly took out his communicator and contacted the family driver directly. "Uncle Wang, come to the south gate of the Alpha dormitory area in the university town immediately. Li Yuheng was hit by a ball and may have a concussion. He needs to go to the hospital for a detailed examination."
Uncle Wang on the other end of the communicator was clearly startled and quickly responded, saying he would come immediately.
After hanging up the call, Shu Bai looked at Li Yuheng, who was leaning weakly against him, with a complicated expression.
He always felt that Li Yuheng was faking it...
Shu Bai's fingers brushed aside the stray hairs on Li Yuheng's forehead and checked the impact site again.
Li Yuheng was overjoyed, feeling Shu Bai's rare tenderness and nervousness. His nose was filled with the cold scent of cedar, but at this moment, he seemed to feel a little anxious for him.
He absolutely loved this accident!
He truly is the chosen male lead!
"Little system, make a note of this. We can have more of these hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scenes in the future, even though the damsel in distress is me." He proudly boasted to the system in his mind.
0090: 【…Yes, Your Highness!】
The Alpha students who had caused the trouble rushed over, their faces filled with panic and apology.
Seeing Li Yuheng leaning weakly against Shu Bai on the bench, and Shu Bai's face so cold it could freeze someone to death, they felt even more uneasy.
The tall Alpha leading the group apologized repeatedly, his tone sincere: "I'm so sorry! Classmate! We're really sorry! We didn't control our strength, and the ball slipped from our hands! Is your friend... alright?"
Shu Bai raised his eyes and said coldly, "It's unclear for now. Whether there's anything wrong or not depends on the test report from the medical ward."
He took out his communicator, brought up his contacts, and said in an unyielding tone, "Leave your contact information. I will contact you if there are any problems during the subsequent inspection."
The Alphas looked at each other, not daring to say no, and hurriedly gave out their student IDs and communication codes.
Shu Bai recorded everything expressionlessly.
I'm so sorry!
The group bowed again in apology before leaving, their hearts pounding with unease.
Faint whispers drifted over on the wind:
"...Is it really an A-grade? It looks pretty tall, how come it's so fragile?"
"I don't know... but that guy next to me, A, with his cold face, had such a strong presence, I didn't dare to look closely..."
"Tsk, maybe it's a recently differentiated Alpha? Or maybe it has a special constitution? Anyway, bad luck, getting caught up in this..."
"I hope everything's alright, otherwise my family will kill me..."
These words were fragmented and unclear, but their core meaning precisely struck a nerve with Li Yuheng, who was in a state of "weakness".
Crispy skin? Special constitution? Bad luck?
Li Yuheng's eyes almost couldn't help but move.
He, a top-tier Alpha, a prince, and the main male lead! How could he be questioned as "fragile" by a bunch of young punks?
This is utterly alarmist!
never mind.
You bunch of single A's don't know anything!
He then leaned even more "weakly" into Shu Bai's arms to show that he was really dizzy and fragile.
Shu Bai naturally heard those comments and also felt the even more "weak" dependence of the person in his arms.
He looked down at Li Yuheng's tightly closed eyes, his long eyelashes trembling slightly, and his hair disheveled. Combined with those words, his suspicions rose a few more times.
This guy... is probably 99% faking it.
But what if there's even a 0.1% chance?
Shu Bai pursed her lips, but in the end, she let Li Yuheng lean on her.
But with her other free hand, her fingertips silently tightened, and she pinched her palm to restrain herself from exposing the drama queen on the spot.
Uncle Wang arrived quickly, and the hovercar silently stopped in front of them.
Seeing his young master half-carrying the young master of the Li family, who appeared weak and unconscious, Uncle Wang was startled and quickly got out of the car to help.
"Young Master Shubai, Young Master Yuheng, what's going on..."
"He got hit on the head by a basketball." Shu Bai said succinctly, and together with Uncle Wang, helped Li Yuheng into the back seat of the car.
Li Yuheng fully demonstrated his acting skills, his body was limp, and he seemed unable to sit still in the car. He naturally leaned to one side and rested his head on Shu Bai's shoulder again, his hand "unconsciously" grabbing the corner of Shu Bai's clothes.
Shu Bai: "..."
He glanced at the head on his shoulder, then clenched his fist again.
However, he ultimately said nothing, only telling Uncle Wang, "Go to the nearest hospital for a full checkup, focusing on the head."
"Okay, okay!" Uncle Wang quickly replied and started the car.
…
The hovercar drove smoothly and quickly toward the hospital.
Li Yuheng leaned on Shu Bai's shoulder, secretly making plans.
Feigning dizziness was only the first step, but the effect was remarkable; he could clearly sense Shu Bai's tension and worry.
But that's not enough; it's still far from the "sweet and cloying romantic relationship" he desires.
His thoughts began to wander, and the plots of the romantic dramas he had recently watched flashed through his mind.
Especially the amnesia scenes.
The male protagonist suffers an accidental injury and loses his memory, mistaking the female protagonist for his lover. Through a series of unexpected and sweet interactions, their fake relationship becomes real, and he eventually regains his memory, leading to a happy ending.
A brilliant idea flashed through Li Yuheng's mind like lightning.
Yes, amnesia!
Wouldn't it be perfect to pretend to have amnesia?
As long as he insists that Shu Bai is his boyfriend, given that Shu Bai does indeed have feelings for him, how could Shu Bai possibly deny it?
Perfect! It's an absolutely brilliant plan!
He had already come up with the script, which would be called "Sweetness from a Collision: The Amnesiac Prince's Exclusive Lover".
It sounds like it has the potential to be a hit, right?
…
The hovercar quickly arrived at the well-equipped interstellar general hospital.
Shu Bai and Uncle Wang, one on each side, helped Li Yuheng out of the car and quickly walked towards the emergency center.
The doctor conducted a series of basic inquiries and nerve reflex examinations.
Li Yuheng delivered an award-winning performance throughout, with his brows furrowed, his eyes glazed over, and his reactions slow.
When answering questions, her voice was weak and carried just the right amount of confusion, perfectly portraying the image of a patient who might have suffered a mild concussion after being hit.
Looking at the data on the screen, Dr. Beta cautiously said, "Initial examination shows no obvious signs of skull fracture, but the possibility of a mild concussion cannot be ruled out. We recommend a more detailed deep brain scan and neurological function assessment to determine the specific situation."
"Do it." Shu Bai nodded without hesitation.
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Li Yuheng, sitting on the examination chair, seemed to be confirming the doctor's judgment.
Or rather, it was to put his "genius" plan into practice.
Without warning, his body swayed to the side, and he fell off the chair with his eyes closed.
