Chapter 198 Fainting
Jian Mo didn't expect to see Xu Ming again under such circumstances.
He was dressed in white, with his usual professional and gentle expression. Seeing her wake up, he gently pressed on her stomach and asked, "Does it still hurt here now?"
Jian Mo felt embarrassed when she saw it was him. She raised her arms to cover her eyes. Everything was dark. She said in a low voice, "A little bit."
Xu Ming's expression froze as he looked at the man waiting outside the ward. Huo Qichen's eyes were dark and deep, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Xu Ming whispered, "You fainted because you were too tired. You're weak, so you need to take care of yourself. You vomited because you haven't been eating regularly lately. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Get some rest and eat a light diet."
When Xu Ming turned to leave, Jian Mo grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "Brother Ming, when can I leave here?"
She still had an IV drip in her wrist.
"Give me another bottle of nutrient solution." He adjusted the drip speed for her and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Jian Mo smiled bitterly and nodded as if to agree, "Since you examined my body, you should be able to guess a lot of things."
The wound on her waist and abdomen left a scar that has not yet healed completely.
She deliberately did not use the ointment given by Lao Sun because of the scar. She wanted to remember this shame.
Xu Ming pursed his lips. He just saw Huo Qichen hurriedly coming in holding a fainted woman. His eyes were dark and scary, and his heart inevitably skipped a beat.
He undressed Jian Mo and saw bruises and kiss marks on some parts of her body, as well as scars on her waist and abdomen, and guessed what was going on.
Huo Qichen's voice rang out above his head, "Xu Ming, you are her friend. I can trust you, right?"
Xu Ming swallowed his bitter feeling and just nodded.
Zhou Liangqi and Xu Xiaolin also followed. If Zhou Liangqi had not seen the anxious look on Huo Qichen's face as he held Jian Mo, he would never have imagined that it was the same person who was ruthlessly attacking the market.
"Let's go." Zhou Liangqi squeezed the woman's soft little hand, his eyes vague and distant. "Let them solve their own problems, okay?"
Xu Xiaolin's eyes were amber, like a cat's. "Okay."
"Are you going to work overtime tonight? Father wants us to go home for dinner."
She held Zhou Liangqi's hands, and when she noticed that he was indifferent again, her eyes showed a hint of pleading.
The man's smile didn't reach his eyes as he stroked her long chestnut hair. "Okay, I'll take you home first."
"Then I'll wait for you at home, and then we'll go there together in the evening."
Zhou Liangqi accepted this arrangement lovingly, "Don't be too tired, have a good rest."
Jian Mo slept for a while and didn't hear any sound for a long time. She thought everyone had left. She finally took her stiff arm away from her eyes and opened her eyes slightly. Unexpectedly, she saw a man with a frosty face standing by the bed, looking at her solemnly.
Jian Mo looked frightened, but her expression quickly returned to indifference.
Huo Qichen seemed to have guessed her thoughts and said calmly, "It was you who kept pulling at my clothes and wouldn't let me go."
Jian Mo was stunned. Seeing that his expression did not change, he did not seem to be lying.
"Thank you." Her expression didn't change. "You're not needed here now."
Huo Qichen raised his eyebrows slightly: "Kill the donkey after it's done working? Is that how you treat your savior?"
Jian Mo was feeling annoyed. She hated him for speaking in such a sarcastic tone. Besides, what was a savior? If it weren't for him, she might not have fainted.
She simply got out of bed, pulled out the needle, and walked away by herself if he didn't leave.
Jian Mo had only taken two steps when she realized that she had pulled out the needle too quickly, and a stream of blood spurted out, covering her hands.
She was shocked by the blood. The man took two steps forward and took her to the bathroom to clean her up without saying a word. Then he rang the bell to let Xu Ming in.
Jian Mo struggled impatiently, "Let me go."
He pushed her down on the bed and sat her down, revealing his hidden anger: "Move again!"
Intimidated by his outburst of temper, Jian Mo had to calm down.
Xu Ming came in and took care of Jian Mo. When he wanted to continue giving her an IV drip, she pulled his hand back and said stiffly, "Brother Ming, I'm sorry, I don't think I'm seriously ill anymore. I want to be discharged immediately."
Xu Ming subconsciously used his expression to ask Huo Qichen.
He now knew that with Huo Qichen here, Jian Mo's decision was not important.
Jian Mo stared at the man unwillingly, "I still have a lot of things to do. I'm not as fragile and pretentious as Mr. Huo thinks."
Huo Qichen felt a chill creep up his brows when he heard that. "Okay, but I'm afraid he'll vomit and faint again as soon as he walks out."
Jian Mo choked because she really felt like vomiting.
"I have no job, what else do I need to do?"
As soon as these words came out, Jian Mo glared at him. The atmosphere was tense. Xu Ming pursed his lips to smooth things over: "Xiao Mo, there's no need to rush. It won't be too late to get the injection and then be discharged."
Seeing that Jian Mo stopped moving, he took the opportunity to inject the needle back into the vein. The sudden pain made Jian Mo groan subconsciously.
The place where I was hit was bruised and swollen.
She didn't notice that Huo Qichen on the side also frowned and looked at Xu Ming with a reproachful look.
In the following time, Jian Mo went back to bed, closed her eyes and dozed off, unwilling to look or speak.
The phone in her pocket kept vibrating, but she didn't dare answer it.
"What? Are you worried?" An intimate breath suddenly sprayed over her. She felt the warm fingertips caressing her face, like the winding of a poisonous snake. She couldn't help shaking. "You've been with me for so long, and you don't know how to deal with emergencies?"
It’s him!
He knew Huo Wan would be affected, so he did this on purpose.
The man's hand suddenly pulled away. "I'm giving you a suggestion. Go to the media and announce our marriage now. Maybe the Zhou family will be saved."
