He Xiao was dumbfounded when he was told to get the leave slip written by the school doctor to be signed by the subject teacher.
"Is Lin Yue alright?" he asked again, unwilling to give up.
School doctor: "...What? You really want something to happen to Lin?"
He Xiao gripped the leave slip tighter and tighter, an indescribable mix of emotions welling up inside him. But once he received approval, all his tension instantly dissipated, and he felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders.
For a moment, even the school doctor seemed handsome and refined.
"I'll go right now!" The boy smiled, his whole being as radiant and passionate as the blazing sun. "Thank you, Teacher Wang!"
School doctor: "..." Truly admirable! For the first time, He pronounced the surname correctly!
He Xiao lifted the curtain, his expression completely composed. The scene of him burying his face in Ms. Shen's arms and crying was still vivid in his mind. He stood at the door for a long time, hesitant and embarrassed, his toes digging into the ground as he frantically tried to mentally prepare himself.
The culprit is Ms. Shen! She didn't even know she was menstruating!
It seems he'll have to reluctantly help her remember things from now on! He Xiao thought heavily.
"You're blocking the light, Yaoyao." Shen Linyue's voice was so gentle it could melt your heart.
He Xiao, who had finally mustered up the courage to think straight: "!?"
Ahhh! My defenses are about to crumble in this very second!
"Shut up!" he said angrily, glancing around warily to make sure the school doctor had left before letting out a sigh of relief and quickly stepping forward to cover Shen Linyue's mouth aggressively.
But when his gaze met her smiling eyes, all his anger vanished instantly. He released her hand and stubbornly said, "Don't call me that at school...!"
Shen Linyue was amused to death by his arrogant little appearance, and deliberately called out to him despite her stomach pain.
"Yaoyao sounds so nice, doesn't it, Yao..." Shen Linyue's mouth was ruthlessly covered by the boy.
He Xiao secretly glared at her, his long eyelashes fluttering slightly, and his tone softened.
“Ms. Shen, I’m telling the truth. I don’t want you to leave me, so please stop scaring me,” he said, feeling wronged.
The infirmary was quiet at this moment. Soft light shone on the two of them, creating a warm, tranquil, and beautiful atmosphere that touched people.
Just then, the chubby boy, who was about to go in, was suddenly pulled back by a large hand.
Jiang Zhixing glanced casually inside and quickly stopped the chubby boy who was about to lift the curtain and go in.
The chubby boy looked completely bewildered: "What, class monitor?"
Jiang Zhixing didn't say anything, and pulled the chubby boy out of the infirmary.
Fatty: ?
Jiang Zhixing glanced at him coldly before looking up at the dark night sky and casually said, "I won't stop you if you go in now."
Fatty: ...No way, why do you all like to play riddles so much?! Can't you just say it directly?
However, now that he had been pulled out, he didn't plan to go back in immediately.
Thinking back to that unintentional glance earlier, I couldn't help but ask, "Is this the usual loving way these two aunt and nephew interact?"
He almost imagined himself in the touching scene of his elderly mother and her filial son at her bedside.
Jiang Zhixing pursed his lips, his cool gaze returning to his face with a half-smile: "Interested? You can go ask He Xiao directly."
Fatty: ...
If you want my life, just say so, thank you.
...
He Liyu boarded a special car in Taipei City to return to Taipei City.
To avoid a second traffic accident on the road, he directly hired a professional security team in Foshan to escort him.
It wasn't until 11 p.m. that He Xiao and Lin Yue received a call from the housekeeper confirming that they were alright.
All the exhaustion rushed over him at that moment, and he collapsed back in his chair, rubbing his aching temples.
“It’s alright,” he said in a hoarse voice. “Remember to remind A-Yue to take the medicine three times a day, no matter how much she begs or acts cute, you have to make her drink it.”
housekeeper:"……"
"I understand, sir, but Miss Lin Yue also mentioned that she experienced heart palpitations. Should we take her to the hospital for a full check-up tomorrow?"
He Liyu's eyes widened slightly, his brows furrowing tightly: "Heart palpitations? When?"
The butler thought for a moment about what the young master had just said and replied, "It was around 8:10 PM. I don't know if Miss Lin Yue will still have heart palpitations tonight, so perhaps we should go to the hospital tonight..."
The butler kept rambling on and on, but when He Liyu heard the time, he froze on the spot. For a moment, the world seemed to go silent, and he could only hear the violent pounding of his heart.
His eyes welled up slightly, and for the first time, he helplessly pressed his eyes, wanting to laugh but unable to, while his hand holding the phone trembled slightly.
Just when the butler thought the gentleman's signal was bad...
The man's steady voice rang out: "I understand. I'll be back soon."
The housekeeper stared at the disconnected phone: ?
Why did your voice sound strange just now?
When he turned to look at the young master who was serving Miss Lin Yue, a loving smile returned to his eyes.
Young Master has really changed a lot because of Miss Lin Yue; he is a true benefactor of the He family!
He stepped forward respectfully and said, "The medicine needs to be boiled for a while longer. Would Miss Lin Yue like to go upstairs to rest now? I've also arranged for you to take the day off tomorrow. Please get some rest."
Hearing the medicine being brewed, Shen Linyue was speechless. She had smelled the bitter smell earlier and knew it was coming for her!
She tried to numb her nerves and changed the subject, asking, "Where is He Liyu now?"
She felt that her heart palpitations wouldn't happen for no reason.
The last time she experienced heart palpitations was because her parents divorced behind her back, and in order not to affect her high school entrance exam, her mother only told her when she was about to leave.
This time, she felt it wasn't a coincidence either. She had forced He Xiao to call and inquire about her father, but she couldn't contact her mother yet, so that left only He Liyu.
She stared intently at the butler, but could only see confusion on his face.
“Well… I don’t know about these things right now. Why don’t you ask the master when he comes back tomorrow?” the butler said.
Shen Linyue sighed, but didn't make things difficult for the butler. She politely said, "Thank you, Uncle Xiao. It must have been hard waking you up so late."
Uncle Xiao quickly waved his hand, covered his mouth and coughed lightly: "It's no trouble at all, it's what I should do. You and the young master sit for a while, I'll go to the kitchen to take a look."
Shen Linyue nodded. After Uncle Xiao turned and left, she looked at He Xiao and met his resentful eyes.
"Why don't you say thank you? I have class tomorrow, and I'm spending all this time with you," He Xiao said, dissatisfied.
Shen Linyue paused for a moment, then smiled and rubbed his fluffy head, sighing, "My Ah Xiao is getting more and more adorable."
He Xiao: "?"
I didn't understand what "milk" meant for a moment.
Only after belatedly meeting Shen Linyue's smiling and loving eyes did he become so angry that he almost jumped up.
"Bullshit! I'm not a baby!" He rolled up his sleeves to show Shen Linyue his biceps, "This punch of mine could kill a cow!"
"Wow~" Shen Linyue exclaimed exaggeratedly, covering her mouth, "Ah Xiao is really brave~"
He Xiao: "..." He felt that there was two meanings in her words.
