Chapter 190 Can I lie here?
In the end, they ordered takeout for the meal. While waiting for the takeout, Qiao Xing wanted to tidy up the table.
However, Qin Ce used her illness as an excuse not to let her touch these things, and he cleaned them up himself and went to the kitchen.
I took my temperature again before bed, and it had dropped to 37 degrees Celsius.
Qin Ce's tense expression finally relaxed after a long day, and he lay down next to Qiao Xing.
Remembering something, he turned to look at Qiao Xing, "Can I lie here?"
Qiao Xing paused, her expression somewhat unnatural, "Yes, I can."
He gave a soft "hmm," then took advantage of the situation and hugged her tightly. "How about this?"
Qiao Xing was a little embarrassed. How could she say no to his unilateral decision?
She buried her head in the pillow and whispered, "Time to sleep!"
Qin Ce stared at her slender shoulders, but finally decided not to torture himself. He turned off the light and turned his back to her.
His action made Qiao Xing's heart skip a beat. She bit her lip and began to wonder if she was being too dramatic.
So, Qiao Xing mustered her courage, turned around, touched his waist, and hugged him.
Qin Ce stiffened slightly.
The next moment, he covered her hand and said, "Don't rush, let's talk about it after you've recovered from your cold."
Qiao Xing's face flushed red.
She turned back in shame and anger, covering her head with the blanket.
Qiao Xing was now completely sleepless. This simple action was interpreted by him as impatience.
Qiao Xing was angry and annoyed. She didn't fall asleep until dawn, when Qin Ce got up and went for a morning run. She was alone in bed when she finally drifted off to sleep.
Anyway, she took three days off and didn't have to go to work.
Joey was easygoing and didn't need to cook for them.
Lin Yu has been in the hospital for several days, and the medication he received was effective, so his recovery has been quick.
Today he was able to sit up and even get out of bed by himself to go to the toilet.
At this moment, the doctor walked in. Instead of examining him as usual, he stood in front of the bed, smiled, and asked, "Mr. Lin, how have you been feeling these past few days?"
Lin Yu glanced at the doctor, because he was now in a VIP ward, and he could feel the doctor's attitude.
So, with a slightly pretentious air, he gave a curt "It's alright" with a straight face.
"In that case, it's time to pay this week's medical bills." The doctor maintained his smile.
Lin Yu was taken aback. He suddenly remembered that Fang Ya hadn't visited him for a few days, and he hurriedly asked, "Has no one paid?"
The doctor said, "No, your girlfriend paid the bill before, but we haven't been able to contact her these past two days, so we had to ask Mr. Lin."
"Can't get in touch?" Lin Yu's heart skipped a beat, but he still tried to remain calm. "Let me ask, she might be busy."
"Okay." The doctor stood quietly to the side, as if he would wait for him to pay the bill before leaving.
Lin Yu reluctantly picked up his phone and instead called Fang Ya.
The call went through, but Fang Ya hung up on him.
This infuriated Lin Yu, and he glanced at the doctor out of the corner of his eye.
Although the doctor was smiling, the smile was too professional, and his eyes were fixed on Lin Yu's phone, flashing with an indescribable light.
Lin Yu hated his gaze.
However, Lin Yu suppressed his anger and called again.
This time, Fang Ya answered the phone. Before Lin Yu could speak, Fang Ya's voice came through, "What are you doing? Can you please stop calling me!"
Lin Yu was annoyed by her attitude, but he didn't show it on his face. "Xiaoya, what's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"
Fang Ya said irritably, "What do you think?"
"What happened?"
"Aren't you annoying? It's all because of you. I get angry just hearing your voice. Don't call me again, you hear me!"
"Xiaoya! I understand that you're in a bad mood. If you're unhappy, just let it out. You'll feel better once you've vented."
Fang Ya laughed in anger upon hearing this. She might have been touched before, but now she felt like vomiting. "You understand? You understand my ass! Lin Yu, I'm officially informing you now that we're breaking up, did you hear me?!"
Lin Yu's expression changed slightly. "Why?"
"Why? Go ask your ex-girlfriend! Okay, I'm hanging up."
"Wait a minute!" Lin Yu hurriedly called out to her, "Don't hang up yet, the doctor said the medical bill is a week overdue, I..."
"Lin Yu, are you out of your mind? Pay your own bills if you're in arrears. You're a grown man, you don't expect me to pay your medical bills, do you? God, I must have been blind to have fallen for a man like you."
These words completely enraged Lin Yu. He roared, "Isn't this all your doing? You transferred me to this ward, gave me all sorts of weird drugs, and now that I owe money, you're abandoning me? Were you sent by Qiao Xing to mess with me?"
Fang Ya was also furious and spoke without thinking, "Yes! I'm going to mess with you, I'll mess with you to death, you're such an idiot, go to hell!"
After saying that, Fang Ya hung up the phone.
Staring at the black screen of the phone, Lin Yu trembled with anger.
The doctor spoke up inappropriately, "Mr. Lin, have you asked clearly? When is the payment for the medication due?"
Lin Yu glared at the doctor, annoyed. "What's the rush? Do you think I can run away? It's just a week's worth of medicine, how much is that?"
The doctor said, "It's not much, just 120,000."
120,000...that's all!
Lin Yu almost vomited blood when he heard that number. He only earned 120,000 a year, and this week's salary was equivalent to his entire year's salary.
Moreover, he had previously bought a car, and during this time he had been trying to make Fang Ya happy by giving her many gifts, and each time they went out to eat, it cost several thousand yuan.
Let alone 120,000, he can't even come up with 20,000 right now.
Lin Yu calmed himself down and said to the doctor, "I'll pay in a couple of days. I can't pay now since I'm lying here. Let's wait until my mom comes."
"Okay, no problem. But Mr. Lin, do you want to continue staying in this ward? Or will you continue with the previous medication? If so, the daily cost will be around 17,000 yuan."
Lin Yu's eyes twitched; he must be out of his mind to stay here!
"I'm all better, why should I stay? I want to be discharged!"
"Um...we need to pay all the fees before we can be discharged."
Lin Yu felt a sharp pain in his chest. He clutched his lower abdomen, suspecting that he had aggravated a rib injury.
He barely managed to maintain his composure, but he was broke and couldn't keep up the act anymore. "Transfer me to a regular ward."
"Okay, no problem."
The doctor quickly arranged a regular ward for him, a six-person room. Having gotten used to staying in VIP wards, Lin Yu felt uncomfortable all over in this regular ward.
It felt noisy, dirty, and even the bed felt uncomfortable.
At noon, his mother, Zhang Yu, brought him lunch. Lin Yu looked at his mother's aged face and found it difficult to speak.
"Mom, where do you have any money left?"
