Chapter 104: Torturing Him Deliberately
"What's wrong?" Qin Song put down his phone and looked up at Pei Lingxuan.
Pei Lingxuan came in empty-handed, but Zhou Liming behind her had his hands full of bags.
"Mrs. Pei, Aunt Pei." Zhou Liming put the things in his hand on the table and greeted the people in the ward politely and gentlemanly.
"Hello." Qin Song replied politely.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou. Please take a seat." Pei's mother had no idea of Zhou Liming's secrets. She just thought he was a suitor recognized by Pei Lingxuan, so she was quite warm and friendly to him.
"Thank you, Auntie." Zhou Liming was not polite and just pulled a chair and sat down at the end of the bed.
"Sister-in-law, guess who I saw in the corridor just now?" Pei Lingxuan was angry. After putting down her bag, she sat next to Qin Song, grabbed her hand and complained.
"Who did you see?" Qin Song asked.
Pei Lingxuan: "I saw Qin Sisi, and her parents!"
"Oh..." Qin Song raised her eyebrows, but her expression did not show any surprise. She even had the leisure to observe Zhou Liming's reaction.
"I saw them, so I saw them. There are only two famous hospitals in Yuncheng, so it's normal to see them here."
"I know it's normal, I just feel it's unlucky." Pei Lingxuan rolled her eyes, both at Qin Sisi and at Zhou Liming, who was feeling uncomfortable.
"Qin Sisi was holding a hospitalization form in her hand, and her parents' eyes were red from crying. I guess someone in their family was sick and in the hospital, and coincidentally they lived on the same floor as us."
Qin Song curled his lips and smiled: "The only person who can make them worry like this should be Qin Wushuang. Maybe Qin Wushuang is going to die."
"...Ah?" Pei Lingxuan's eyes widened in horror. "Qin Wushuang is going to die? Is this true? Sister-in-law, how did you know?"
Qin Song blinked mischievously: "I was just kidding. Qin Wushuang is tall and strong, how could he die so easily?"
"..." Pei Lingxuan pursed her lips helplessly, "You scared me. I thought Qin Wushuang was really going to die."
"Hmph..." Qin Song sneered and skipped the topic without answering, "Xiaoxuan, you saw Qin Sisi in the corridor, did Qin Sisi see you?"
Pei Lingxuan shook her head and glanced at Zhou Limin with the corner of her eye. She raised her voice a little and said, "No. Qin Sisi looked very anxious. She just kept walking forward with her parents and didn't even have time to look at me."
Qin Song: "Yeah, normal."
Pei Lingxuan was still disgusted: "It's so unlucky. I feel sick when I see the Qin family! Including Lu Yibai, Lu Yibai is also disgusting!"
"Just bear with it." Qin Song raised his hand and tucked Pei Lingxuan's messy hair behind her ears. His meaningful gaze fell on Zhou Liming.
"Qin Sisi is Lu Yibai's fiancée. Now that Qin Wushuang is seriously ill and in the hospital, Lu Yibai has to come to the hospital to visit his brother-in-law. What a disgusting bunch of people gathered together. You will be unlucky in the future."
Pei Lingxuan: "I know."
…
Zhou Liming on the side didn't dare to interrupt at all.
The aunt and sister-in-law kept deliberately mentioning Lu Yibai and Qin Sisi, which made Zhou Liming feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He lowered his eyes, staring at his leather shoes, and didn't dare to look over at Qin Song and Pei Lingxuan while they were chatting.
"It's almost time, sister-in-law, I should go." Pei Lingxuan glanced at her cell phone and reluctantly ended this satisfying topic.
"Where are you going?" Qin Song looked at her and asked.
She stood up from the sofa, took Qin Song's arm to help her up, and took her to the dining table nearby.
"I have an appointment with a friend for lunch this afternoon, and I have to rush over now. I know the food in the hospital is not delicious, so when I passed by the restaurant just now, I specially packed these for you and mom."
"It's still hot, you two should eat it while it's hot."
"Don't you want to eat something together?" Pei's mother put the folded clothes into the closet in front of her and looked over.
Pei Lingxuan picked up the bag on the table and put it on her shoulder: "I'm not going to eat anymore. I'll go over and eat with my friends later."
Mother Pei: "Okay, be careful on the road."
Pei Lingxuan: "Hmm..."
"Let's go, Xiaoxuan." Zhou Liming stood up from his chair and spoke inexplicably anxiously.
But Pei Lingxuan looked at him and hesitated for a few seconds, then said shyly: "Mom, sister-in-law, these dishes were picked by President Zhou himself, you two must eat more, don't let President Zhou down."
"..." Qin Song smiled but didn't say anything.
"Okay, okay." Mother Pei happily agreed, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Zhou. I'm sorry for your trouble."
Zhou Limin smiled a little, "You're too polite, Auntie. It's my duty to take care of Xiaoxuan's family."
"Eh..." Pei's mother liked him quite a bit. When she heard him say such ambiguous words, she did not ignore them but responded to them happily.
"Ahem..." Pei Lingxuan cleared her throat with a red face, "Then we'll leave first. You two remember to eat."
Qin Song stood there and watched her go: "Go, be careful on your way."
…
Zhou Limin seemed very anxious.
After coming out of the ward, he walked quickly with big strides, so fast that Pei Lingxuan could hardly keep up with him.
Pei Lingxuan looked at his anxious back and asked knowingly, "Boss Zhou, is there something urgent? Why are you walking so fast all of a sudden?"
"Ah?" Zhou Limin tilted his head when he heard that. "Am I walking fast?"
Pei Lingxuan: "Faster, so fast that I can't keep up."
"…I'm sorry." Zhou Limin forced a smile and slowed down his pace helplessly. "I heard that there's been another wave of flu in Yuncheng recently. This flu is very severe. Once infected, it's very easy to develop into pneumonia. I was a little worried, so I walked faster unconsciously."
"Is that so..." Pei Lingxuan played along with him, "If this flu is this severe, then we really need to move faster. There are so many people coming and going in the hall, and if we're unlucky we might get infected right away."
"Yeah." Zhou Limin nodded, "Then I'd better walk faster. If Xiaoxuan can't keep up, just hold my hand."
Pei Lingxuan: “Ah?”
Zhou Liming didn't explain too much to her, he just took action and held her hand firmly in his palm.
"Come on, I'll take you out quickly."
"..." Pei Lingxuan did not refuse and let his big, broad hands wrap around her tightly.
“Bang!”
The car door closed, and Zhou Liming's tense body relaxed visibly.
Pei Lingxuan sent him the dining location, and he set the navigation and drove directly out of the hospital.
But halfway through the drive, he suddenly said, "Xiaoxuan, I may not have time to take you to the hospital anymore."
"Okay." Pei Lingxuan agreed first, and then asked, "Has Mr. Zhou received any big orders again?"
