Chen Xu was considering whether to find a way to inform Yang Jinxia. A nurse came in from outside and came to his bedside, with her hands in her front pockets, and smiled, "You are finally awake."
He sensed a hint of teasing in the nurse's tone and wondered if she was being too familiar. He responded with a polite smile and a slight nod.
"Why, old classmate, don't you recognize me?"
Chen Xu was stunned when he heard this name. He looked at her for a while, and gradually found someone who matched the person in front of him from his dusty memories...
"Zhou Juanjuan?" he asked uncertainly.
When Zhou Juanjuan saw that he recognized her, she smiled happily and said, "At least you still have some conscience. You haven't forgotten your classmates of three years."
Chen Xu was pleasantly surprised when she admitted it. "It's really you. You've changed so much. If you hadn't taken the initiative to say hello to me, I really wouldn't have recognized you at all."
Zhou Juanjuan smiled and said, "You have changed a lot. We haven't seen each other for so many years. Everyone has changed."
"Yeah, in the blink of an eye, it's been six or seven years since we last met."
Chen Xu was somewhat emotional. He remembered that in high school, she was still a very shy girl. She always spoke in a soft voice and blushed easily. He even doubted whether she liked him. Later, when he saw her talking to other boys like this, he realized that it was because of her personality.
Now, she has become graceful and elegant, and there is no trace of her past appearance at all.
Zhou Juanjuan said, "In the past few years, the class leader held several gatherings, but you didn't go."
"Don't mention it. I'm busy with work." Chen Xu smiled. In fact, he didn't want to go. His high school class monitor also contacted him through QQ, but he turned her down.
During his three years of high school, he devoted himself to studying and made almost no friends. There was no one in particular he wanted to meet, and he didn't like such occasions, so he didn't go.
Zhou Juanjuan smiled and said, "You work so hard, no wonder you can become a big boss."
"Hey, I'm not a big boss." Chen Xu shook his head and asked her, "Why are you working here?"
"Well. Since I failed to become a doctor, I had to settle for the next best thing and become a nurse." Zhou Juanjuan said self-deprecatingly.
Chen Xu vaguely remembered that she applied to a medical school. Of course, her grades were not outstanding and she performed poorly that year. Like him, she ended up going to a junior college.
He said, "Working in a big hospital like this should pay well, right?"
"What's good about that? I have a lot of work but little salary. I can't compare to you. You even hired a secretary." Zhou Juanjuan said, lowering her voice. "By the way, you hired such a beautiful secretary. Isn't your girlfriend jealous?"
"To be precise, she is my assistant. Besides, they know each other."
Zhou Juanjuan shook her head and said, "I don't understand the difference. I just think your girlfriend is really generous. By the way, your girlfriend is really beautiful. Is she a celebrity?"
"No, she is a white-collar worker and used to work in the same company as me."
Zhou Juanjuan stared at him for a while.
Chen Xu asked curiously, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"I'm just curious, what charm do you have that can make your girlfriend so devoted to you."
As they were talking, Luo Xiyun walked in from outside and said to Zhou Juanjuan in a friendly manner, "Hello."
"Hello." Zhou Juanjuan turned to Chen Xu and said, "Then you have a good rest. I'm going to get busy."
Chen Xu said, "Okay, see you later."
After Zhou Juanjuan left, Luo Xiyun asked curiously, "Do you know her?"
"Well, she is my high school classmate. I didn't expect to meet her here. It's really magical." Chen Xu exclaimed.
Luo Xiyun didn't expect that this nurse had such a relationship with him, and said, "That's really a coincidence."
Then she asked, "How do you feel now?"
"Much better." Chen Xu's eyes fell on the suitcase in her hand and asked, "What are these?"
"Some daily necessities. You'll be staying here for a few days. It's not hygienic or environmentally friendly to always use disposable items. I brought some with me." As she spoke, she took out things from the suitcase, including dishes and chopsticks.
Luo Xiyun raised her head and said, "I have discussed this with my aunt. You should stay here for a few more days until everything is fine after the examination. You can be discharged from the hospital. Don't worry about the company's affairs. Secretary Jin will take care of it."
"No way?" Chen Xu was a little reluctant when he heard it, and said, "Listen to me, I think I can be discharged from the hospital now, there is no need for me to stay here..."
Luo Xiyun put down what he was holding, sat on the edge of the bed, and held his hand. "Don't let Auntie and I worry, okay."
Chen Xu sighed and said helplessly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
…………
Two days later, it was already evening. Chen Xu was accompanied by his parents, while Luo Xiyun went back to take a shower.
Chen Xu was leaning back on the hospital bed with a notebook on his knees and a pen in his hand, making some notes on it.
"Xiao Xu, you've been writing for half an hour. Take a break and don't be too tired." Zeng Wenli, who was sitting beside the bed, reminded him.
Chen Xu didn't look up and replied, "It will be ready soon."
At this time, Zhou Juanjuan walked in, and the aunt accompanying the patient in the next bed greeted her, "Nurse Zhou, are you on night shift again today?"
"Yes." Zhou Juanjuan responded with a smile.
Zeng Wenli saw it and stood up enthusiastically, saying in her hometown dialect, "Juanjuan is here."
"Auntie, have you eaten?" Facing Chen Xu's family, her smile became much more friendly.
We are all from the same hometown and have the deep connection of being classmates, so we are particularly close to each other.
Zeng Wenli said, "I have eaten. How about you? Have you eaten?"
"I ate." Zhou Juanjuan said, and asked Chen Xu, "You look much more energetic today."
"Yeah." Chen Xu smiled and put away the notebook.
Zeng Wenli interrupted, "What's wrong with that? Xiyun said that you slept as much today as you did the last two days. If you wake up for a few hours, you'll feel sleepy and need a nap. Juanjuan, has the doctor found out what's wrong with him?"
Chen Xu knew that this was because his brain was digesting the knowledge he had memorized from his dreams, which caused the sequelae. As long as he digested all the knowledge, he would return to normal. However, there was no way to explain this to them.
Now, he is always sleepy and needs to sleep for more than ten hours a day, which is definitely abnormal in the eyes of others. In addition, the doctors have not been able to find the "cause", which makes them even more worried.
According to the current progress, he will probably have to stay in the hospital for a while. Moreover, Xiyun has the idea of taking him abroad for treatment.
"I'm not sure either." Zhou Juanjuan said a little embarrassedly.
Zeng Wenli wanted to ask more, but her husband pulled her back and said, "You've already asked the doctor, right? If there's anything wrong, the doctor will tell you directly. Don't ask everyone."
Zhou Juanjuan said, "Auntie is also concerned about Chen Xu. How about this, I will go and ask about it tomorrow."
"Then thank you for your help." Zeng Wenli said with a smile.
Chen Xu changed the subject and asked her, "Why didn't I see your boyfriend?"
Zhou Juanjuan said, "I'm so busy with work, I don't have time for love."
Zeng Wenli interrupted and said, "You can't say that. Xiaoxu is also very busy at work, and he has a girlfriend, so this won't delay him."
"How can I compare with Chen Xu?" Zhou Juanjuan said helplessly. Then, she remembered something and asked, "By the way, last time I heard someone call her Ms. Luo, does she work at Chen Xu's company?"
Zeng Wenli said with some pride, "No, she is the department director of their company and also the vice president. The one you are talking about is her secretary, right? She always calls him President Luo."
Zhou Juanjuan was really surprised this time. She had met Luo Xiyun several times, and the thing that impressed her most was his wealthy style. He bought new things for every hospitalization. The last time she accidentally saw the tableware, it turned out to be a luxury brand. One set was worth several months of her salary. He was so rich and inhumane.
She thought Luo Xiyun was spending Chen Xu's money, but it turned out that he was the vice president of a company. He was not a sugar daddy as she thought.
Is it fair that a beautiful person holds such a high position? (End of this chapter)
