Chapter 20 You Stay at My Place
Shen Jin waited in the hospital corridor for about half an hour, but still did not see Yan Yu.
He checked his phone again and again, but there were no text messages or phone calls. He could only watch the time slip away and wait.
Yesterday, he told Yan Yu on the phone that he would make him breakfast and asked if he would come over when he passed by the hospital tomorrow morning. Yan Yu agreed and said with a smile that he would definitely come over and was looking forward to it.
Because of his expectation, Shen Jin got up early to cook, carefully selecting dishes that Yan Yu would like and that would suit his taste. He even imagined how Yan Yu would react when he ate the food. Would he smile and praise him?
Thinking about it this way, he became even more excited and rushed to the hospital, but he didn't see anyone there for a long time.
"Should I make a call and ask..." Shen Jin muttered to himself, touching his phone and gently stroking the screen with his fingertips, landing on the name "A Yu".
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, he shook his head, afraid that he might disturb him, and could only continue to wait.
At the same time, he couldn't help but look towards the VIP ward building. It wasn't far from here, and he remembered that almost every day when he met Yan Yu, he seemed to come from that direction, and many times he stayed in the VIP ward area...
He was also curious as to why Yan Yu always went over there. Why did he always like to look over there?
But a vague sense of fear lingered in his heart, and he dared not ask, as if the answer would frighten him...
"Phew..." Shen Jin reached out and patted his face, rubbed it, and then glanced at the VIP ward, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything.
After all, these corridors were crisscrossed, and the wards were spaced apart, and he didn't intend to go there specifically...
Shen Jin waited for another twenty minutes, but still no one came. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He lowered his head and muttered softly, "Ayu, if you don't come soon, breakfast will get cold... and then we won't be able to eat it..."
Unfortunately, he still didn't get to see him.
"Have you forgotten...?" Shen Jin couldn't help but think this way, and for now, this thought was the only thing that could put his mind at ease.
"Ding ding ding—"
Suddenly, his phone screen lit up; a text message had arrived.
Shen Jin burst into laughter, excitedly calling out, "Ah Yu!"
After the initial excitement, when he checked his phone, he found it was an unknown number, not the A-Yu he was waiting for, and the text message was just a very simple sentence.
—Don't wait anymore, he won't come.
Shen Jin's smile froze, all color drained from his face, he pursed his thin lips, and looked around blankly. Seeing no one, he stared back at the unfamiliar number.
After a while, Shen Jin finally typed a few words to the unknown number: Who are you?
The person did not reply to him.
Shen Jin's heart sank, but he continued to wait. After all, it wasn't A Yu who said it. If A Yu said he would come, then he definitely would...
But after waiting another ten minutes and still not receiving a response, he grew even more uneasy and, in a daze, dialed Yan Yu's number—
Meanwhile, in the VIP ward, Xie Li was preparing to be discharged from the hospital.
Yan Yu stayed by his side.
Xie Li took off his hospital gown and put on a simple white shirt, looking very clean and refreshing. Coupled with the faint smile on his lips, he was exceptionally charming.
He stood by the window, opened it, and the wind ruffled his hair. He covered his ears, smiled, and turned to look at Yan Yu: "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Yan Yu chuckled and looked at him gently, saying, "You can laugh so happily just leaving the hospital, like a little kid."
Xie Li felt a little embarrassed by his gaze, her heart started racing, and she felt a surge of pride. She awkwardly looked away and sighed, "I'm about to be discharged from the hospital and want to find a quiet place to live. I wonder if A-Cheng has found one yet..."
Sure enough, Yan Yu's expression changed as soon as he heard the name "A-Cheng," and he blurted out, "You shouldn't spend too much time with him; it's not appropriate."
He was well aware of Xu Cheng's feelings for Xie Li, and therefore naturally did not want them to spend too much time together, to avoid any unexpected incidents.
Xie Li seemed taken aback for a moment, frowned slightly, and then chuckled softly: "Ayu, what are you saying? Acheng and I have been friends for several years. This discharge from the hospital was a bit abrupt, and before I could find a suitable place, I stayed at his place for the time being..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yan Yu immediately interrupted him: "Stay at my place!"
Xie Li's lips curled up almost imperceptibly, but he quickly suppressed his smile, looked at Yan Yu casually, and chuckled, "What nonsense are you talking about? It's too inconvenient, how could I possibly bother you..."
Just then, Yan Yu's phone rang in his pocket—
"Why did you choose this time to call me?" Yan Yu was annoyed by being interrupted. Without thinking or checking who was calling, he hung up immediately.
Then, Yan Yu looked into his eyes and repeated what he had just said: "You don't need to stay at Xu Cheng's place. Ali, you can stay at my place."
Seeing how decisively he hung it up, and hearing him repeat the words twice, Xie Li's smile deepened...
Sure enough, Yan Yu's heart still belonged to him, and what did that guy surnamed Chen matter?
