Xu Zhe is exhausted!
Before leaving home, she unusually instructed Aunt Lin to prepare a soup to replenish her blood and qi, so she could drink it when she returned home in the evening.
Aunt Lin agreed, her smile wide and uncontrollable.
When Xu Zhe arrived at the classroom, he saw Bei Xiaoyu. She hesitated whether to ask her now or later.
After hesitating for a long time, she still couldn't bring herself to ask, especially since Su Nan was there. Finally, she decided to let Liang Shile ask; she was willing to ask anything!
There weren't many classes scheduled for today. After the two afternoon classes, Xu Zhe wanted to go to the hospital to see Fang Kangzhu.
I wonder how heartbroken Chen Cheng will be when she sees his injuries. She was saddened for a long time by the two marks on Xu Zhengxi's back.
She grew up in the Xu family. Although the Xu family, starting with the old man, had questionable morals, there had never been any cases of abuse or corporal punishment in the Xu family mansion.
It's quite different from the Pei family's militarized management style.
Xu Zhe couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the Pei family elders.
They arrived at the hospital quickly. Through the small glass window on the ward door, Xu Zhe saw Si Kangzhu lying alone on the bed.
She knocked on the door a few times before slowly pushing it open.
Si Kangzhu sat up and looked at Xu Zhe with a serious expression.
Xu Zhe walked over quietly and placed the flowers and fruit on the small cabinet next to him.
She didn't know what to buy, so she chose a two-piece bedding set for visiting the sick.
"I came to see you," Xu Zhe said.
"Thank you," Si Kangzhu replied.
Then, the two of them fell silent.
Xu Zhe felt embarrassed, wishing he had asked Butler Zhou to accompany him.
"Where's Secretary Chen?" she asked, trying to start a conversation.
Si Kangzhu lowered her eyes.
Xu Zhe's heart skipped a beat. Had she said something wrong? This person's expression was strangely fierce.
"Don't tell him," Si Kangzhu said seriously, staring into her eyes.
"He didn't know?" Xu Zhe hadn't expected that.
But even if couples can hide their relationship for a while, there will always be intimate moments. At that point, forget about all those scars on your back; even the most hidden little mole will be discovered!
“Okay, I won’t tell,” Xu Zhe agreed.
"Thank you," Si Kangzhu said again.
The two seemed to have said everything they could say, and Xu Zhe didn't know what else to talk about...
Fortunately, there were two knocks, and someone was knocking on the door.
Xu Zhe quickly ran over to open the door.
“Pei Yun?!” she exclaimed.
Pei Yun smiled broadly: "Xu Zhe! It's so nice to see you again!"
She lost sight of Xu Zhe on the mountain, but thankfully he was alright, otherwise she would have felt uneasy for the rest of her life.
"Do you want to see Si Kangzhu?" Xu Zhe pulled her in.
“Yes!” Pei Yun picked up a small bundle and placed it on the hospital bed.
"I heard you were injured. This is Grandpa's special medicine; it's effective both internally and externally, and it helps wounds heal quickly," Pei Yun instructed Si Kangzhu.
Si Kangzhu didn't thank her. Instead, she opened her small bundle, took out a small red pill, and popped it into her mouth.
"They have such a good relationship!" Xu Zhe exclaimed.
Pei Yun seemed to hear her inner monologue and told her with a smile:
“Si Kangzhu and I grew up with our grandfather.”
Xu Zhe nodded. This was the legendary childhood sweetheart!
Pei Yun laughed again: "We can't say we're childhood sweethearts, we should say we're fellow disciples who have been punished and disciplined together."
Xu Zhe looked embarrassed: "Can you read minds? How come you say whatever I'm thinking?"
"I can't read minds, it's you who wears your heart on your sleeve~" Pei Yun said with a bright smile.
Xu Zhe nodded, not daring to think about anything else.
"I'll be leaving once the elixir is delivered. You'll recover soon," Pei Yun said, turning to leave.
Si Kangzhu's physique is the result of rigorous training since childhood; injuries are commonplace for him. Pei Yun trusts him completely.
"Where are you going? I'll take you." Pei Yun asked Xu Zhe.
Xu Zhe nodded vigorously with delight.
She was feeling awkward staying there, and Pei Yun, beautiful and kind-hearted, was just so nice~
After getting into Pei Yun's car, Xu Zhe remembered that she was going to Liang Shile's place.
"I'm going to Kailai City, which is on Nanhua Road." Xu Zhe was worried that she wouldn't know the area around the nightclub, so he gave her directions.
“Liang Shile’s territory, huh?” Pei Yun turned the steering wheel, seven parts focused and three parts nonchalant.
Xu Zhe hummed in agreement.
It's true that powerful families have interconnected networks.
"Want to come together?" Xu Zhe asked, without much hope.
After all, Pei Li's daughter's status is quite different from that of ordinary wealthy young men.
“Sure~” Pei Yun agreed readily.
Xu Zhe was taken aback for a moment, then sent a message to Liang Shile.
I'm bringing someone with me, Pei Yun.
Liang Shile quickly replied:
[No problem! The eldest princess of the Pei family is a good girl! I'll prepare a set of Empress Supreme gear for her!]
Xu Zhe: "......"
Good girl, you prepared this for him?!
Xu Zhe posted again: 【Are you also acquainted with Pei Yun?】
Liang Shile: [We know each other well! She's Liang Shaojie's arranged marriage partner and Yu Tiantian, the eldest daughter of the Yu family, is his close friend!]
What?! Xu Zhe was dumbfounded. Liang Shaojie already had a marriage partner?!
