Chapter 26 Sleeping Together
"What?" Qiao Xi didn't hear what she said clearly.
Old Madam Liu was stunned for a long time before she said, "Forget it, you go and make the arrangements."
"Okay, then I'll go talk to the doctor."
Qiao Xi said calmly, "If you have any questions, you can ring the bell to call me."
After she left.
Old Lady Liu rubbed her swollen temples.
At that angle just now, she was really dazzled. This little girl named Qiao Xi looked about three or four points like her daughter when she was young.
Old Mrs. Liu even forgot to lose her temper.
But if you look closely, it doesn't look like that.
The world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things.
She took out her phone and called her eldest son, "Zongquan, I saw a little girl in the hospital today who looked a bit like Huimin. The hospital is really good at selecting people."
The Liu family dotes on their daughter the most.
"They're afraid I won't cooperate with the treatment, so they're trying to find someone who looks a bit like me to manipulate me. I can't... let them trick me." The old lady snorted coldly and said, "This must be Xiuyuan's trick."
If Xu Xiuyuan knew the old lady's thoughts, he would definitely cry out in injustice. Who knew Director Wu would make such an arrangement by mistake?
"Mom, just stay in the hospital. Hemiplegia can be cured." Liu Zongqun persuaded.
"Don't tease me, I don't like hospitals."
In order to go home and recuperate as soon as possible, she must be cruel.
…
Qiao Xi came back again and took Old Lady Liu for a checkup and picked up some food on the way.
Back in the ward, Old Lady Liu knocked over the hospital's bland soup meal, and the scalding soup splashed onto the back of Qiao Xi's hand.
"Is this food for humans? I want the Jinling Garden set meal."
"You told me to arrange it myself." Qiao Xi said, straightening his body.
"I didn't say that, you heard it wrong."
Old Lady Liu spoke righteously to cover up her guilty conscience.
Qiao Xi also has principles. "When a patient is hospitalized, they should follow the doctor's orders. I'll give you another one."
"I don't want to eat anymore. Clean the floor for me. The greasy smell is disgusting." She turned up the heat and started to make trouble again.
Qiao Xi glanced at her and cleaned the room silently.
"I want to take a nap, please don't disturb me."
"Dr. Yan will give you acupuncture at one o'clock."
"Let him wait."
As a patient, she was indeed the most difficult one Qiao Xi had ever encountered.
After a whole day, she was almost exhausted both physically and mentally.
After get off work, Ye Manman and Wu Yachun can still make plans for dinner full of energy.
Seeing the dusty Qiao Xi, Ye Manman couldn't help but laugh, "We are number one in our profession, how are you doing as a handyman?"
Wu Yachun said sarcastically, "I heard she even went to mop the floor. Our nanny doesn't have to do this kind of work. She's really a capable country girl."
Qiao Xi ignored them, changed her clothes and went out to take the bus.
"Manman, could it be that she was abandoned by her sponsor? She actually took the bus!" Wu Yachun said affectionately, holding Ye Manman's hand.
She felt that Ye Manman was of the same kind, with a wealthy family. Most importantly, she heard from Ye Manman that she knew the daughter of the Huo family.
Although the Huo family's second branch had fallen on hard times, in the eyes of these ordinary wealthy people, Huo Sijiao was still an unattainable existence. There was a huge gap between the local tycoons and the top wealthy families.
“Serves you right.”
Ye Manman laughed.
Qiao Xi took the bus home, the smell of disinfectant on her body almost soaking her in. After getting off the bus, she walked for more than ten minutes to reach the villa area.
"Aunt Qian."
"Oh, Madam, it's getting dark. Haven't you had dinner yet? I'll go heat it up for you."
"I'm going upstairs to take a shower first."
She put down her things, returned to her room, took a quick shower, and changed into clean clothes before finally knocking on Huo Xingzhou's door.
"Enter."
"Mr. Huo, I'm here to give you acupuncture." Her voice was hoarse and she looked very tired.
Huo Xingzhou kept his eyes locked on her, watching her perform acupuncture on his legs as usual. Her fair, delicate hands were dry and red, which was particularly noticeable.
The whole person looked like a cabbage hit by frost, wilted.
"Remove the needle in half an hour."
Qiao Xi packed up the medicine box and sat aside waiting.
Huo Xingzhou didn't say anything. He watched Qiao Xi's head nod slowly, until she finally closed her eyes and fell asleep in the rocking chair. He took out the hand cream from the drawer and maneuvered the wheelchair closer.
He squeezed the cool paste into his palms, wrapped her hands around them, and rubbed them gently.
He thought Qiao Xi must have been wronged in the hospital.
But she was a very hard-working and resilient girl, she would never go home to complain. In the past, there was no one she could complain to.
Half an hour passed and she still hadn't woken up.
Huo Xingzhou didn't want to disturb her, so he pulled out the needle himself. After a while, Aunt Qian came upstairs with the food and asked quietly, "Is the young lady asleep?"
"Um."
"I'm tired."
Aunt Qian said distressedly, "Why are you going to be an intern?"
Huo Xingzhou knew that she wanted to get a diploma, or even stay in the city hospital, so that she could obtain a medical license according to the normal procedures in a year.
In fact, she doesn't need to work so hard, as long as Cheng Han is willing to acknowledge her as his apprentice.
But Cheng Han may not want to reveal his whereabouts yet.
"Aunt Qian, go to the city hospital tomorrow and ask if she's being deliberately embarrassed."
"Okay. Then put the food aside and wait until the young lady wakes up before eating."
Huo Xingzhou nodded slightly. After Aunt Qian left, he picked her up and put her on the bed. She was sleeping soundly and didn't wake up even after all the trouble.
Qiao Xi woke up the next morning because she was hungry, her stomach rumbling.
She slept soundly, but when she opened her eyes, she noticed something strange. The body beside her was warm, and she slowly turned her head to see Huo Xingzhou's handsome face, magnified.
Take a breath of cold air.
Huo Xingzhou seemed to sense something and moved his arm to the side.
Qiao Xi quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, her heart beating like a drum.
"If you sleep any longer, you'll be late for work." The man's voice was sexy and hoarse when he woke up in the morning.
Qiao Xi couldn't pretend anymore, she opened her eyes and said calmly, "Good morning, Mr. Huo."
"Do you black out when you sleep?"
He leaned lazily on the edge of the bed and asked meaningfully.
Qiao Xi blushed and whispered, "No, I'm going to wash up."
Behind him, Huo Xingzhou laughed happily.
Qiao Xi almost tripped over her left and right feet, her face red all the way to her neck.
"Master, Madam! It's time for breakfast!" Aunt Qian shouted, and the dining table was filled with a nutritious breakfast.
The two arrived late.
Aunt Qian smiled and asked, "Young Madam, was yesterday's boxed lunch delicious? I made you another one today."
Qiao Xi forced a stiff smile and lied, "It's delicious."
"That's good."
Aunt Qian also packed some expensive fruits for her, "Take these and share them with your colleagues."
"good."
Huo Xingzhou noticed her awkwardness, and when Qiao Xi finished her meal and left, he said, "Qiao Xi, after get off work tonight..."
"Um?"
Qiao Xi looked at him puzzledly.
"Never mind, it's nothing." He kept it a secret.
