The girl in the bathtub had clearly lost consciousness and was sinking into the water, which had already covered her mouth and nose!
"Wanwan!" Zhan Jingting hurriedly pulled her out of the water, patting her back. "Wanwan, wake up! Don't scare me! Wanwan!"
"Cough cough cough!" Qiao Wanwan suddenly spat out a mouthful of water and coughed violently.
She finally caught her breath and asked, "Zhan Jingting, what's wrong with me?"
"Don't you know what happened?"
"I don't know."
"You seem to have fainted, and you've completely sunk into the water. Luckily, I found you in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
Qiao Wanwan's eyes widened. "How could I suddenly faint? I was just asleep at most!"
You just fainted!
Qiao Wanwan felt a wave of fear wash over her. "How could this happen..."
She belatedly realized what was happening and suddenly screamed, "Ah! I'm not wearing any clothes!"
Zhan Jingting was stunned, only then realizing that she was completely naked, and his hand was still around her slender waist.
The man's lowered eyes suddenly changed color!
Qiao Wanwan couldn't help but shudder and quickly shrank back into the bathtub. "You go out first!"
Zhan Jingting struggled to gather his thoughts and got up to leave.
He stopped after taking only two steps, but didn't turn around again. "Wanwan, stop taking a bath. Get dressed and come out."
Qiao Wanwan's voice was barely audible, "Okay."
About ten minutes later, Qiao Wanwan came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, her face already flushed red to her ears, and she dared not look at Zhan Jingting.
Zhan Jingting's mind wasn't on that. He took Qiao Wanwan's hand and led her to the dressing room. "Change your clothes, I'll take you to the hospital."
"What are you doing going to the hospital in the middle of the night?"
"Get a physical checkup."
Qiao Wanwan frowned. "You suspect I'm sick?"
“Wanwan, you don’t seem to be tired or frightened. A normal person wouldn’t faint while taking a bath. I have to take you to get checked out.”
Qiao Wanwan thought about it carefully for a moment, "If you put it that way, I do seem to be acting a little strange today."
"Yes, so we're going to the hospital."
"I'll listen to you."
The two went to the hospital overnight and underwent various physical examinations, which were not completed until almost dawn.
Qiao Wanwan was already exhausted and asleep in her hospital bed, but Zhan Jingting was wide awake and stayed by her side in the ward.
There was a sudden knock on the door. Zhan Jingting went to open it and saw Jiang Dong standing outside.
"Master Zhan, the doctor would like to see you. He says he has something to tell you."
Zhan Jingting turned to look at the girl on the hospital bed, his voice low and hoarse, "Stay here and watch over Madam. If she wakes up, come and call me."
"Yes, Master Zhan."
......
Qiao Wanwan slept until after 10 a.m. before slowly waking up, feeling much better.
She stretched and saw Zhan Jingting sitting in a wheelchair by the hospital bed. She quickly got up and said, "Zhan Jingting, you don't look well. Have you not been sleeping?"
"Hmm." Zhan Jingting smiled. "I'm not sleepy. How are you feeling now?"
"He's in good spirits."
"That's good, let's go home."
"Um."
When Qiao Wanwan returned to Wutong Bay, the bathroom door had already been repaired.
She took a hot shower, felt a little tired, and then lay down for a nap.
I was half asleep when my phone suddenly rang.
Qiao Wanwan opened her eyes and answered the phone, "Professor Yu?"
"Wanwan, didn't you say your leg was healed and you could come back to school? Why did you take leave today? This week's classes are all very important, you can't just take leave like that."
"Zhan Yin has already told me that I will go to class tomorrow."
Okay, see you tomorrow.
"See you tomorrow."
The next morning, Qiao Wanwan went out wearing a mask, and a flashy red sports car was parked at the entrance of Wutong Bay.
Zhan Yin opened the convertible top and whistled at her.
Qiao Wanwan: "......"
She stepped forward, looking at him with disdain, "Why are you dressed up like a male peacock so early in the morning?"
"I came all this way to pick you up, and instead of being grateful, you dare call me a male peacock?"
Qiao Wanwan's lips twitched. "Does your uncle not have a car anymore? Do I need you to pick me up?"
"Qiao Wanwan, you've gotten too big for your britches! You've really become arrogant since marrying into the Zhan family!"
"I'm not being arrogant, I just feel that you're being unusually attentive, there's no reason for you to do this."
"You're so petty!" Zhan Yin took off his sunglasses. "Are you getting in or not? If you're not, I'm leaving, and you'll be late. Let me tell you, the driver my uncle hired drives very slowly, and it's rush hour right now. If you're not late, I'll change my mind!"
Qiao Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then quickly got into Zhan Yin's car. "Let's go!"
Zhan Yin raised an eyebrow smugly and sped off.
Qiao Wanwan quickly grabbed the handrail, "Slow down!"
"Didn't you tell me to hurry up and leave?"
"But you can't risk your life!"
Zhan Yin turned to look at her with disdain. "Why are you wearing such a big mask? Don't worry, with me here, no one at Imperial University will dare to laugh at you."
"What are you mocking me for?"
"It's just a scar on your face. There are plenty of people in this world who judge others by their appearance, but I will never laugh at you, don't worry."
Qiao Wanwan smiled. "I didn't realize you were so kind."
"No matter what, we're family now. I can bully you, but others can't."
Qiao Wanwan: "......"
"Who said you can bully me?"
"I said it."
"Tch." Qiao Wanwan ignored him and turned to look at the scenery.
"Qiao Wanwan, are you really insecure?" Zhan Yin asked. "Have you heard the rumors too?"
"What rumor?"
"It's said that on the day Gu Xulin married your older sister, a fairy appeared at the wedding. She was so beautiful that she almost miscarried. This story has spread all over the capital. Are you feeling even more inferior because you heard that someone else is beautiful?"
Qiao Wanwan: "......"
"I haven't heard of this."
"It's best if you haven't heard of it. There are always people in this world who don't care about looks and will fall for you, like my uncle."
Qiao Wanwan: "......"
What should she do if she feels like punching Zhan Yin?
The phone suddenly rang. Qiao Wanwan glanced at the screen, a smile unconsciously appearing on her face. She swiped to answer, "You're awake?"
Why didn't you wake me up when you got up?
"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't wake you. I wanted you to sleep a little longer."
Suddenly, the car went out of control and crashed into a tree on the side of the road!
"Ah!" Qiao Wanwan screamed in fright!
"Damn it!" Zhan Yin swerved the steering wheel sharply, narrowly escaping disaster!
"Zhan Yin, are you crazy!" Qiao Wanwan exclaimed, still shaken. "If you don't have the skills, why are you driving?"
"What does this have to do with me!" Zhan Yin retorted. "I was just scared by you. You and my uncle were sleeping together?"
