In the next few days, Chen Yao clearly felt that Pei Shuo appeared in front of her more frequently.
Several times when he came over, Zhou Peilan happened to be there too.
Zhou Peilan would say to Shen Yao privately: "This friend of your uncle is quite nice. He takes good care of you and cares about you. I will have to tell your uncle later and ask him to thank him."
Hearing this, Chen Yao just smiled without saying anything, looking like she wasn't very familiar with Pei Shuo.
But at night, when she was alone, in bed, her face, illuminated by the screen of her mobile phone, was filled with a smile that she couldn't help but reveal while chatting with Pei Shuo.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was the day she was to be discharged from the hospital.
Outside the hospital, some media reporters were already squatting, waiting for her to appear.
This time, Xiaoyin and Sister Xu both came.
After Shen Yao changed her clothes, Xiaoyin quickly fixed her hair and handed her a mask. She said, "Sister, just say hello to them briefly later. You don't need to stay long. The people we brought with us will clear a passage. After you say hello to the reporters, just follow us and get in the car."
Shen Yao nodded and put on the mask.
Zhou Peilan and Shen Cheng were there at the moment, as was Zhou Xiuran, and they were talking to Pei Shuo.
The discharge procedures have been completed, and Chen Yao's aunt has packed up her things. Now that Pei Shuo has finished speaking, it will be almost time for them to leave.
Zhou Xiuran patted Pei Shuo's shoulder and laughed heartily, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time. I'll treat you to a meal later, so please do me a favor."
Pei Shuo smiled and said, "Let's make an appointment later."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Sister Xu walked over to Zhou Xiuran and said, "Mr. Zhou, Xiaoyin and I will take Yaoyao downstairs first."
Zhou Xiuran nodded and said, "Well, let's follow the planned steps. You go first, and her parents and I will drive behind you."
Sister Xu: "Okay, Yaoyao, Xiaoyin, let's go now."
Chen Yao put on a hat and a mask, covering herself tightly.
Before leaving, she said goodbye to Pei Shuo: "Dr. Pei, thank you for your care. Goodbye."
Pei Shuo's eyes moved slightly, his Adam's apple rolled slightly as he hummed, then watched her leave.
…
Since being discharged from the hospital, Chen Yao's life has become extremely busy.
Because she had a lot of work to do during her hospitalization, she basically finished one job every day and then rushed to the next one right away.
For Chen Yao, the most common feeling she has about the novel experience of working in the entertainment industry is the word "tired".
Lately, she's been so exhausted she barely has time to think about Pei Shuo. Even the system noticed, and kept worrying, "Host, you're so busy, and Pei Shuo's busy too. It seems like you two rarely get to see each other. How can you possibly spark love? If we don't see each other for too long, the atmosphere we had before will fade."
Chen Yao was silent. The system's concerns were not unreasonable.
She didn't know what to say, but at this moment, her phone screen suddenly lit up. It was Pei Shuo who sent her a message.
[Pei Shuo: Are the scar removal ointments I prescribed for you still working?]
[Pei Shuo: Don't forget to come to the hospital for a follow-up visit next Friday. Tell me when you come. I'll be waiting for you.]
Chen Yao glanced at the time. It was 10:20 in the evening, which was not too late. After thinking about it, she made a voice call to Pei Shuo.
The call was picked up quickly, but both parties were stunned when the other person's face appeared on their phone screens.
Pei Shuo had just finished taking a shower, his hair was still wet, and the bathrobe he was wearing was loose, revealing a large area of his chest. The muscle texture on his chest was clearly visible, exuding a wild beauty that was different from his own abstinence.
Although the mobile phone camera only captured half of the scenery, Chen Yao, who was watching through the phone screen, still felt a surge of envy and couldn't help swallowing slightly.
When Pei Shuo saw Chen Yao's face appear on the screen, he realized that she must have mistakenly pressed the video call instead of the voice call.
He didn't look carefully just now and answered the call directly. Now that he realized what was going on, he quickly ended the call.
He looked disheveled now, and it was really not appropriate for him to appear in front of Shen Yao.
Before Chen Yao could finish appreciating the scenery, the screen of her phone went black. Pei Shuo had hung up the video call.
She frowned and sighed with some regret, then saw Pei Shuo calling again. This time, it was not a video call.
She moved her fingertips and clicked the answer button.
Pei Shuo's deep, magnetic voice came from the other side: "How are you doing recently? Are you busy?"
Chen Yao's mind wandered, and she answered irrelevantly: "Why did you suddenly hang up the video? Pei Shuo, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I wanted to see you."
There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone, but the breathing sounded noticeably heavier. If you listened carefully, you could still feel the disorder and awkwardness.
Chen Yao pretended to know nothing and continued, "Actually... last night, I dreamed about you. Maybe... this is what they say, 'What you think about during the day, you dream about at night.'"
When she said these words, her voice seemed to carry some bewitching aura. Pei Shuo on the other end of the phone couldn't help but take a breath, and his hand holding the phone tightened and tightened.
After a while, he finally said what he had suppressed in his heart for a long time: "Do you want me to chase you?"
