Chapter 631 You'll Get Married Someday
"Anning is asleep. Her phone is in her bag. I was mopping the floor when I heard the phone ring and saw it was you calling. I was afraid you would worry, so I answered it first."
Upon hearing this, Qi Yue fell silent.
After a moment, he asked, "It's only a little past ten o'clock, why is she asleep so early?"
"Yes, she was exhausted from the group competition a while ago, and she said she's going to catch up on all the sleep she missed these past few days."
You Jingqiao's voice was calm, showing no sign of lying.
Qi Yue knew that Shen Anning was indeed a health-conscious young woman. She had stayed up many nights for the competition, and now that the competition was over, it was in line with her personality to relax and rest.
Qi Yue said, "She's been working really hard lately. I'll have my assistant transfer some money to you so you can buy some good ingredients and help her recover properly."
"Mr. Qi, you don't need to have someone transfer money to me. I have a part-time job now, and I can afford to pay for this little bit of food." You Jingqiao said with a smile, "Don't worry, Anning is my good sister. She is very kind to me. I remember it all and will naturally take good care of her."
"This is my way of showing my care for my girlfriend as her boyfriend." Qi Yue's voice was deep and forceful, leaving no room for refusal. "If you are unwilling, I will personally arrange for a nutritionist to go over and personally have the nutritionist take charge of Ningning's three meals a day."
Upon hearing this, You Jingqiao frowned.
After a moment, she sighed softly, "Anning probably won't like the nutritionist coming. She said she wants to experience a normal and carefree university life. If the nutritionist comes, she'll probably feel that her life rhythm is being interfered with. So, you should have Assistant Luo transfer some money to me, and I'll buy the ingredients and cook for Anning myself."
Qi Yue responded indifferently, "Then I'll trouble you, Miss You. Since you said Ningning doesn't like her university life being interfered with, then you don't need to tell Ningning about this."
A hint of smugness flashed in You Jingqiao's eyes as she replied, "That's fine too. Don't worry, I'll send Assistant Luo the receipt every time I buy groceries."
"No need for all that trouble," Qi Yue said. "Ningning trusts you, and so do I.
"Thank you for trusting me, Mr. Qi!"
Qi Yue responded, "Then that's settled."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, You Jingqiao stared at the call log. After hesitating for a moment, she still didn't delete the call history.
She put her phone in her bag, turned around, and walked into the emergency room.
Shen Anning remained asleep.
You Jingqiao walked to the bedside and sat down, reaching out to touch her head.
The medication took effect, and Shen Anning broke out in a sweat.
You Jingqiao took out a tissue and helped her wipe her sweat.
Shen Anning frowned, her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were red and her vision was blurred because of the high fever. "Qiaoqiao?"
“I’m here.” You Jingqiao immediately shook her hand.
When Shen Anning woke up and saw You Jingqiao by her side, she was naturally moved.
"What time is it?" she asked.
"It's past ten o'clock," You Jingqiao asked her. "How are you feeling now?"
"I don't feel so bad anymore." Shen Anning raised her hand that hadn't been injected and touched her forehead and face. "It seems like the fever is starting to go down."
"Yes, the medication is starting to work." You Jingqiao looked at her, her voice gentle. "Would you like some water?"
Shen Anning was actually awakened by thirst.
She nodded.
You Jingqiao immediately got up to get water.
There is a water dispenser in the corner of the emergency room lobby.
You Jingqiao arrived in a hurry and brought nothing with her. At this moment, she could only ask the nurse for a disposable cup and fill it with warm water.
Fearing that Shen Anning wouldn't be able to sit up, she asked the nurse for a straw.
Shen Anning drank the whole glass of warm water through a straw, and only then did she feel much better about her burning throat.
After drinking the water, Chen Anning felt a bit more energetic.
You Jingqiao told her to close her eyes and sleep again, and she would stay by her side until the IV drip was finished before waking her up.
"I can't sleep." Shen Anning glanced at the IV drip above her head, paused for a moment, and then looked at You Jingqiao, asking, "Did you bring my phone?"
When she arrived at the hospital, she was delirious with fever and had no recollection of whether she had her phone with her.
"Yes." You Jingqiao took out her phone and handed it to her. "President Qi just called. I was afraid he would rush over overnight if he knew you had a fever, so I took the liberty of lying and told him you were asleep and left your phone in the living room."
While saying this, You Jingqiao kept observing and scrutinizing Shen Anning's reaction.
She was actually a little afraid that Shen Anning would be angry.
Shen Anning blinked, looked at You Jingqiao, her expression not changing much, and simply asked, "Did he believe it?"
“He probably believed me,” You Jingqiao said. “I told him that you often stayed up late because of the group competition, and now that the competition is over, you said you wanted to make up for all the sleep you missed. He didn’t seem to doubt me; he just said he understood and then hung up the phone.”
Shen Anning nodded. "I understand."
"Anning, are you... blaming me for taking matters into my own hands?" You Jingqiao stared at her and asked tentatively.
"Why would you think that?" Shen Anning looked at You Jingqiao, somewhat amused and exasperated. "You did a great job. Qi Yue just took over Ronghao this year, which is a crucial period. I don't want him to keep coming to see me all the time. Although I did miss him a little when I was sick, I didn't want to delay his work because of me. So I won't blame you. On the contrary, I should thank you. It's fortunate that you reacted quickly and kept it from him. Otherwise, given his personality, if he knew I had a fever and was hospitalized, he would definitely have taken a private jet over overnight."
Upon hearing this, You Jingqiao's tense nerves instantly relaxed.
"It's good that you're not angry."
"Silly girl, I'm so happy that you understand me so well, how could I be angry!" Shen Anning looked at You Jingqiao, her beautiful eyes crinkling with laughter. "This shows that we sisters have excellent chemistry and think alike! Qiaoqiao, you are truly my sweet little angel. We will be best friends for life! We will never be apart in this lifetime!"
You Jingqiao looked at her, her slightly pursed lips curving into a shy smile.
“Anning, you always say nice things to coax me.” You Jingqiao lowered her eyes and lowered her voice as she spoke, “You are still young now. When you grow up, you will marry President Qi.”
"So what if I get married?" Shen Anning frowned. "I'll still be Shen Anning even if I get married, and you'll still be my best friend. In this world, family, friendship, and love are all equally important to me."
You Jingqiao nodded, "Yes, they are all equally important."
"You're just too sentimental!" Shen Anning gently patted her shoulder. "You'll probably meet the right guy during your four years of university!"
"I'm not going to have a boyfriend!" You Jingqiao suddenly raised her head and said.
Shen Anning was momentarily stunned by You Jingqiao's furrowed brows and resolute expression.
