Chapter 110: An ignorant heart
Li Yi looked at the silent Bi and scratched his head, "Why are your ears red?"
Anubis: "You are mistaken."
Li Yi: "No, why is your face red? Do you have a fever?"
Anubis: “.”
Qiao Sui Sui didn't notice Anubis's unusual behavior, only focusing on the key points. She asked, "Didn't you check the surveillance?"
Li Yi interrupted, "I heard that Dr. Li is personally investigating this matter, and he has also taken away the surveillance footage. Oh, with Dr. Li's involvement, I believe the truth will soon be revealed."
Anubis lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Qiao Suisui felt something was amiss and continued to ask Anubis if he had any enemies and what happened. Anubis's answers were vague, and with Li Yi around, the topic was steered off track several times, making Qiao Suisui suspect that Li Yi was an undercover agent sent by the murderer. The three of them returned to their usual chattering and noisy state.
Lan Ze stood at the back quietly without saying a word. In fact, he was unable to join in the conversation between the three of them. It was as if they had known each other for many years. When talking about the same thing, the three of them would laugh at the same time. Their tacit understanding was like a barrier that prevented Lan Ze from getting in.
A sense of uneasiness gradually spread in his heart.
In the ward, Li Yi was still chattering away, and Qiao Suisui listened from the side, her expression sometimes helpless, sometimes amused. Anubis just quietly watched her every move, occasionally responding.
"By the way, Qiao, you haven't been to school for a while, so you haven't caught up with the latest gossip, right? Let me tell you, Senior XX and that guy, they did it!" Li gestured as he spoke, and at the end he played two roles, hugged himself and kissed him with pouting lips.
"Don't you think it's disgusting? Ugh, it really gives me nightmares after watching it!"
Hearing this, Anubis quickly glanced at Qiao Suisui's expression and hurriedly changed the subject: "I'm thirsty, Li Yi, pour me a glass of water."
"Didn't you just finish your drink?"
"Is it okay if I'm thirsty again?"
"Tsk, what will happen to you if you leave me?" Li went to pour water, his mouth non-stop, and continued: "Really, I don't understand. Even if there are few females, they can't eat everything, right? What's the matter? Can't survive without estrus? Two good males getting together, it's really! Disgusting! Immoral! I think all males who like males should be electrocuted, don't you agree!!!"
Anubis stuffed a roll of gauze into Li Yi's mouth, and his face looked unhappy.
"Mmmmm?"
(Why are you blocking my mouth?)
"You're too noisy."
"Mmmm! Mmmmm!"
(Psycho! I'm your savior!)
Qiao Suisui asked with a smile, "What is he talking about?"
Anubis deadpanned, "He said he wanted to leave."
Li Yi: “?”
Qiao Sui Sui was used to this kind of scene. She walked over, patted Li Yi on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, you must be tired from taking care of Bi, so you can go back and rest. I'll stay."
Li Yi made an OK gesture and walked away with a mumble.
Lan Ze watched him leave with a hint of doubt on his face. He asked, "Can't he take the gauze off with his hands?"
Qiao Suisui and Anubis looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
She explained to Lan Ze: "It's almost there, the reflex arc is almost there."
Qiao Suisui and Anubis counted silently in their hearts at the same time -
3.
2.
1!
Li Yi's exclamation could be heard from the corridor, followed by an echo: "Huh? Yeah, this thing can be taken out!"
In the ward, the two of them smiled at the same time.
Lan Ze couldn't see their expressions, but he could feel the unique and subtle atmosphere between them, and he couldn't even maintain his gentle smile.
"Sui Qiao, let me stay with you and take care of your classmates."
Qiao Sui Sui was helping Bi put away his clothes. When she heard Lan Ze's question, she said without even looking up, "No, you can go back first. You don't have to stay here with me."
Lan Ze moved his lips, wanting to say something, but seeing that her attention was elsewhere, he endured it, instead showing a smile with a hint of sadness, and said: "Well, then I will go back to the Imperial Court first. I wonder if Ash will be unhappy to see me go back."
Qiao Suisui paused, remembering that she had overlooked this point, and said hurriedly, "Don't worry, I'll talk to him later. That's your home too, there's no reason for him to chase you away."
Lan Ze smiled at her gently, his words carrying a subtle intimacy and a relaxed tone: "Don't be too tired, my business is not urgent, let's meet at home."
He deliberately emphasized the word "home". Anubis lowered his eyes slightly when he heard it.
After the two people left, the entire ward became much quieter.
Li Yi was used to being casual. He had been taking care of her for more than a night, and he put his things away casually. Qiao Suisui simply tidied up the ward. During this time, Anubis glanced at her again and again without leaving any trace.
She seems to have lost weight.
He looked at Qiao Susu's fair and slender wrist. For convenience, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing her well-proportioned forearm. Anubis saw a small mole on the jade-white forearm at a glance. Suddenly, he felt the scar on his chest was itchy. He put his hand on the wound and found that it seemed to be itchy inside.
He shifted his eyes away indifferently, then glanced back, seeing her slender fingers and tender white fingertips. Her hands were soft and boneless, and her wrists could be clenched with just two fingers, as if they could be broken with a little force.
Anubis's Adam's apple moved, this time he was really thirsty.
"When did the doctor say to change the medicine?"
"Um?"
"I'm talking about the wound," Qiao Suisui repeated, seeing that he was a little absent-minded: "When will the dressing be changed?"
"Oh, just change it again at night."
Qiao Susu glanced at the time on the computer, wrote it down, and planned to call a doctor in the evening.
"Don't be busy, take a break."
"It's okay, I'm staying here anyway."
She poured Anubis a glass of water and accidentally touched his fingertips when she handed it to him. She felt the temperature was incredibly hot. She quickly put her hand on his forehead and then touched her own head.
"It's not burning."
Qiao Susu looked at him in confusion. At this time, Anubis buried his head very low. From Qiao Susu's angle, she could only see the top of his head and two red ears.
She had no choice but to bend down and look at his face carefully: "Bi, are you feeling unwell?"
Anubis turned his head awkwardly, wanting to say that he was fine, but he choked on his saliva and started coughing.
So Qiao Susu patted his back to help him breathe more smoothly.
Feeling the warmth of the palm on his back, and thinking of that pair of fair hands, he felt a tingling sensation where she had touched him, and Anubis coughed even more violently.
Qiao Susu was a little anxious and wanted to call a doctor, but just as she took half a step, her wrist was gently pulled.
