Chapter 22
After returning to Beiyi, Xia Ruirui has been busy with work.
As for Shen Yuqing, she didn’t call him, but pretended to be unaware of his car accident.
From time to time, Xia Ruirui would ask about his recent situation when talking to Shen Qingli on the phone.
Xia Ruirui never mentioned him again until she learned that the person had recovered.
The days passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye more than a month had passed, so long that Xia Ruirui almost forgot about Shen Yuqing's existence.
That afternoon, Xia Ruirui was drawing an embroidery pattern, but the cell phone on the coffee table kept vibrating.
She answered the call without even looking at it: "Hello, who is this?"
“…”
The person on the other side was silent for a long time. Xia Ruirui glanced at the screen, which clearly showed the three big characters "Chen Yuqing".
She clutched the phone tightly, hesitating whether to hang up. The other party seemed to see through her thoughts and spoke at the last second before she hung up: "It's me."
"Who are you?" Xia Ruirui pretended not to know.
“Chen Yuqing.”
"Oh, Mr. Shen." Xia Ruirui started to get angry when she thought about someone having a car accident without telling her, and her voice became a little sarcastic.
"..." Shen Yuqing on the other end of the phone frowned, "I'm at Beiyi, come out for lunch."
Hearing that Shen Yuqing came to Beiyi, Xia Ruirui paused: "Why are you here in Beiyi?"
"What else can I do? I came to see you." Thinking of the last time Xia Ruirui said she would never come back, Shen Yuqing couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"It just so happens that this year's e-sports league is held in your Beiyi." He pretended to be casual and explained lightly.
Xia Ruirui felt a sharp pain in her abdomen. She covered her dysmenorrhea-stricken abdomen and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. She had no intention of talking on the phone.
Even if the other party is Shen Yuqing.
"Then have fun in Beiyi. I'm hanging up first." She was about to hang up the phone.
"Xia Ruirui." Shen Yuqing's voice became much colder.
Hearing the familiar tune, Xia Ruirui realized that Shen Yuqing was angry.
That's right, I just rejected him last month. Although he didn't say it at that time, they both knew what he wanted to say.
Now that he had rejected him again, Shen Yuqing must be furious.
But Xia Ruirui also felt excruciating pain and didn't care about anything else.
"Xia Ruirui, you used to be so carefree. Can't we still be friends after breaking up?"
As if feeling that the effect was not enough, he added lightly: "Your thinking is still quite decadent now."
"......" Xia Ruirui covered her aching stomach, the veins on her forehead bulging with anger. "Give me the address, I'll go there soon."
On the day of the phone call, Shen Yuqing raised the corner of his mouth: "No. XXX, Beiyi Avenue..."
The words haven't been finished yet.
“Beep-beep-beep.”
After glancing at the screen, the other party had hung up. Shen Yuqing's forehead twitched, and he patiently sent the address to her mobile phone.
After sending the message, he sat in the box, pressed the bell and called the waiter over.
"Hello, sir."
"I'd like to order this cheese pork chop, pickled fish, garlic crab roe, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, and steamed hairy crab."
After ordering, he added two coconuts.
"By the way, the dishes will be served a little later. Let's serve them in half an hour."
"Yes, sir."

On the other side, Xia Ruirui was changing clothes while sweating profusely.
When she was changing her shoes, she lost her balance and fell to the ground. She climbed up with her hands, sat down on the floor, and suddenly didn't want to go anymore.
Thinking of what Shen Yuqing had just said, she felt that she still had to go.
We can't let him get hold of any evidence against us.
Although Xia Ruirui also knew that this was Shen Yuqing's method of provoking her, there was nothing she could do. She just couldn't bear to hear him say that she was corrupt.
Please, who is corrupt?
He was very rigid when he was studying, but ten years later he even started to say that he was decadent.
Xia Ruirui staggered out of the community and called a taxi.
In the car, she covered her abdomen and vaguely felt the pain becoming more intense.
The driver saw her pale face in the rearview mirror and wondered if he was afraid that something might happen to her in his car, so he drove very fast all the way.
It was supposed to be a 20-minute drive, but he managed to get there in just 15 minutes.
After she closed the car door, he drove away again.
Xia Ruirui: “…”
She supported herself and walked to the restaurant that Shen Yuqing mentioned. The waiter at the door heard her announce Shen Yuqing's name and took her to the private room.
After entering the box, Xia Ruirui looked at the person sitting there and walked towards him slowly.
"Chen Yuqing, who are you calling corrupt?..."
After saying this, Xia Ruirui seemed to be relieved and fell on him.
Looking at Xia Ruirui who fainted on him, the smile on Shen Yuqing's lips disappeared. It took him two seconds to react and he rushed out holding Xia Ruirui.
The waiter at the door rushed out with a confused look on his face when he saw him before his dish was served.
"Sir, your dish..."
Chen Yuqing ran all the way holding Xia Ruirui in his arms. Fortunately, the car was on the side of the road, and he carefully put Xia Ruirui in the back seat.
After closing the door and looking at the large bloodstains on his clothes, he realized that it was Xia Ruirui's blood. He panicked instantly, got in the driver's seat, ran a red light and went to the nearest hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital entrance, he rushed to the emergency room carrying the person.
When the emergency nurse saw him covered in blood, she reacted quickly and lifted Xia Ruirui onto the transfer bed.
“Does the patient have any underlying diseases?”
Shen Yuqing was confused by the question and was not sure: "I don't know."
Seeing that he didn't know, several nurses pushed him into the emergency examination room.
He stood at the door, waiting anxiously.
Not long after, Xia Ruirui was pushed out, and the doctors and nurses looked much more relaxed.
Seeing that he was still waiting at the door, he pushed him over and said, "It's a ruptured corpus luteum. The symptoms are relatively mild, so conservative treatment will be enough. Go to the inpatient department and stay for a day to observe the condition. If there's nothing serious, you can be discharged tomorrow."
Then he gave him the checkup form and asked him to go to the pharmacy window to buy medicine.
Hearing that it was only a mild case, Shen Yuqing was obviously relieved and pushed Xia Ruirui to the pharmacy window to buy medicine.
After buying the medicine, he pushed the patient to the inpatient department and carried Xia Ruirui from the transfer bed to the hospital bed.
Xia Ruirui hadn't woken up yet, and he didn't wake her up. Instead, he sat beside the bed and looked at her quietly.
In the middle of the process, he even used his mobile phone to look up what corpus luteum rupture was.
When it was evening, Shen Yuqing came back from buying porridge and found that Xia Ruirui had woken up.
"You're awake."
“…”
Just before Shen Yuqing came, Xia Ruirui had already seen her own case. She was feeling embarrassed when he came back.
Perhaps it was because he got used to it the first time, but Shen Yuqing quickly adapted to life in the hospital. While buying porridge, he even took the time to go to the nearby shopping mall and buy a T-shirt to replace the blood-stained clothes.
Unlike the last time Xia Ruirui was hospitalized for hemorrhoid surgery, he was no longer in a panic and could even be said to be at ease.
He skillfully took out the porridge and handed the spoon to Xia Ruirui.
"Be careful of the heat."
“…”
Xia Ruirui drank the porridge with a complicated expression, and her face was full of embarrassment.
After drinking a bowl of porridge, Shen Yuqing cleaned up the table, and the doctor came to check on him.
She glanced at Xia Ruirui's case and warned Shen Yuqing beside her: "Family members of the patient, the patient is resting and cannot have sex during these few days."
"..." Shen Yuqing, who was packing his things, paused when he heard this and subconsciously glanced at Xia Ruirui.
Xia Ruirui covered her forehead with her hands, looking hopeless.
Damn it, who would want to sleep with him?
Seeing the stiff couple, the doctor looked at them with some surprise and reminded them again, "Also, the patient needs to stay calm for the next few days. Don't get too excited."
"Okay." Shen Yuqing answered for Xia Ruirui when he saw that she was pretending to be dead.
The doctor heard him speak, looked at him several times, blinked, and looked a little uncertain: "Um, are you the blogger of the northern wolf?"
“…”
“…”
The wolf of the north.
Xia Ruirui also remembered this name. It seemed to be the online name of Shen Yuqing during his e-sports live broadcast. Because it was too eye-catching, she remembered it after hearing it only once.
It even sounds vaguely familiar.
Shen Yuqing nodded, and at the request of the attending doctor, signed several names.
The doctor left excitedly after getting the signature. Before leaving, he did not forget his professional ethics and reminded her: "Remember not to have sex."
“…”
“…”
After she left, the ward fell into a strange silence, and it was Shen Yuqing who broke the silence with a cough.
"Does your stomach still hurt?"
Xia Ruirui only then remembered what happened before she fainted, and glared at Shen Yuqing: "Who did you just say had corrupt ideas?"
"..." Shen Yuqing pursed his lips helplessly, "My thoughts are rotten."
Hearing the satisfactory answer, Xia Ruirui puffed out her chest, with an unconcealable look of pride on her face.
Chen Yuqing looked at Xia Ruirui, who looked wanton and relaxed in the sunlight, lowered his head, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was hidden in the darkness.
At night, he wanted to stay and keep her company, but Xia Ruirui righteously refused.
He had no choice but to book a room in a hotel near the hospital.
In the morning, he went to the hospital. He came very early because he was worried that Xia Ruirui would be discharged without saying goodbye like last time.
It was early and Xia Ruirui was still not awake.
Looking at someone who was sleeping in a mess and still snoring, Shen Yuqing laughed, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was barely concealed.
When Xia Ruirui woke up, he put breakfast in front of her again. After breakfast, Shen Yuqing helped Xia Ruirui get into the car again.
In the car, Xia Ruirui looked at someone who was more meticulous than a nanny, and felt a little curious. Didn't Shen Yuqing have to work?
Although he is an e-sports anchor, I have never seen him broadcast.
Xia Ruirui had secretly followed his account a month ago, but he was inconsistent. Sometimes, Shen Yuqing would only update a video after half a month.
Even so, there are still so many fans.
Aren’t they all zombie fans?
Xia Ruirui was amused by her own thoughts. She glanced out the car window and realized that this was not the way to her apartment.
It was only at this moment that she suddenly remembered that she had not yet told Shen Yuqing her address.
So where is he taking her now?
