Chapter 38 They Don’t Look Like a Couple



Sheng Anning was startled by Zhou Erni's gaze, which was gloomy and dark, like a ghost: "Are you awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable? I'll call a doctor for you."

Zhou Erni turned her face away indifferently, not wanting to pay any attention to Sheng An Ning.

Sheng An Ning didn't care, she got up and went out to say to Zhou Shixun and Zhou Changlin who were standing outside by the flowerbed: "Er Ni is awake, I think for convenience, you should transfer her to another ward."

She had no interest in taking care of Zhou Erni. Looking at Zhou Erni's behavior, she would definitely repay kindness with evil. She was not that kind-hearted to repay evil with kindness.

Zhou Changlin looked at Zhou Shixun without any idea. Zhou Shixun nodded: "I'll go find a doctor."

He didn't ask Sheng An Ning to go in and help look after Zhou Erni because he knew Sheng An Ning didn't want to.

Zhou Erni was quickly transferred to a ward where there was only an old man.

Zhou Changlin carried Zhou Erni over. As soon as Zhou Erni saw Zhou Changlin and Zhou Shixun, she couldn't help crying with red eyes: "Big brother, second brother..."

Zhou Changlin still felt sorry for his sister, so he asked her to lie down and covered her with a blanket: "It's okay, just take two more injections of anti-inflammatory medicine, and you can go home."

Zhou Erni felt like crying in so much pain and was filled with regret. She also knew the results of the operation and even thought that it would be better if she didn't abort the child. After all, her mother said that Sheng An Ning could raise the child.

If Sheng An Ning knew that Zhou Erni was in such a state and was still planning to plot against her, she would definitely go over and slap her twice to make her wake up and clear the shit out of her head.

It was getting dark. Zhou Shixun glanced at Sheng Anning, who had been standing by the window without saying anything. He looked tired and said to Zhou Changlin, "You take care of Erni first. I'll take Anning to rest."

Zhou Changlin knew that city girls were delicate, so he nodded quickly: "Okay, you guys go quickly."

Zhou Shixun took Sheng An Ning to a guesthouse near the hospital and booked a room. However, because they did not have a marriage certificate and a letter of introduction, they could not stay in the same room.

Seeing that Zhou Shixun only booked a single room, Sheng Anning asked him quietly: "What are you going to do at night?"

"It's okay. I have a comrade in the county. I'll go find him and deal with him for one night."

Sheng An Ning thought about how Zhou Shixun came here by tractor, and she didn't know what the wound was like: "Then come with me to the room, I'll take a look at your wound."

The staff member who was checking in the room was immediately unwilling to do so when he heard this: "That won't work. If you can't prove that you are a couple, you can't go up together."

Sheng An Ning was somewhat puzzled: "If we weren't husband and wife, who would dare to go up there so openly?"

The staff member curled his lips: "Who knows? You don't look like a couple."

Although the man looked good, he was a bit dark and didn't look like a good match for this pretty girl.

Sheng An Ning turned her head and glanced at Zhou Shixun. She wanted to laugh. Do we have to use their appearance to determine whether they are a couple?

Zhou Shixun pulled Sheng Anning's sleeve: "My wound is fine, put your things down, and let's go eat."

Sheng An Ning had no choice but to put the bag in the room first, then go downstairs to eat with Zhou Shixun.

We found a roadside noodle stall near the hospital and each of us ordered a bowl of noodles.

Sheng An Ning prefers rice. At first, she was never picky in order to fill her stomach. Although she was hungry now, she had eaten noodles for so many days in a row. She didn't have much appetite when she saw the full bowl of noodles. She moved the bowl towards Zhou Shixun and said, "I can't finish it. I'll give you some."

As he spoke, he picked up noodles and put them into Zhou Shixun's bowl.

Seeing Sheng An Ning had pushed most of the noodles over to her, Zhou Shixun guessed that Sheng An Ning didn't like it. He glanced at her, picked up the bowl and ate without saying a word.

Sheng An Ning ate the noodles slowly and drank all the soup. She felt much better in her stomach. After she was full, she had a lot of thoughts and thought it would be nice to have a plate of vegetables.

But it’s only March now and the grass has just started to sprout. We’re lucky to have some cabbage and radishes to eat. There are no green vegetables anywhere.

Zhou Shixun went to pay and came over: "I bought some noodles and sent it to big brother first, you wait here for a while."

Sheng An Ning was not polite, she didn't want to go to the hospital to see Zhou Erni: "How about I go back to the guesthouse first?"

Zhou Shixun insisted for once: "No, I'll be back soon."

He took the lunch box and left quickly.

Sheng An Ning sat at the stall waiting and could see the hospital gate from a distance.

The noodle stall owner was a lady with a kind smile. No one was eating at the moment. Seeing Sheng An Ning sitting here alone, she went over to sit down and chatted: "Is anyone in the family in the hospital?"

Sheng Anning nodded: "Yes."

The old lady comforted him: "Everything grows in spring, but people are prone to getting sick. But you two are a perfect match. I have been setting up the stall for so long, and I have never seen such a handsome couple."

Sheng An Ning was somewhat happy to be praised: "Do you think we are a good match? Just now the guesthouse said that we don't look like a couple."

The old lady's face turned serious: "Nonsense! The man is handsome and the woman is pretty, is he blind?"

Sheng An Ning became happy and chatted casually with the old lady while keeping an eye on the hospital gate. She did not see Zhou Shixun coming out, but instead saw Luo Caixia hurried in carrying a cloth bag.

Seeing Sheng An Ning staring at the hospital gate, the old lady also looked over and saw Luo Caixia. She exclaimed, "Isn't that the girl who runs a tailor shop in the east of the county? Why is she here in the hospital too?"

Sheng Anning was curious: "Auntie, do you know her?"

The old lady nodded and said, "I know her. I live in that area too. This girl is very skillful. She can embroider and make clothes. She is also very kind. When she sees someone with pity, she will repair their clothes for free."

Sheng An Ning was in a subtle mood, looking at the hospital gate thoughtfully.

After waiting for more than twenty minutes, it was completely dark. Seeing that no one wanted to eat noodles, the old lady started to pack up her stall and prepare to go home.

Sheng An Ning had nothing to do, so she stood up and helped the old lady put the small stools together.

The old lady thanked him and praised him: "Thank you, this beautiful girl, you have such a good heart. I guarantee you and your man will have a fat baby in the future."

Sheng An Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Who knew how far she and Zhou Shixun could go?

Luo Caixia is so nice, she feels embarrassed to compete with her for the man.

The old lady pushed the cart away slowly. Sheng An Ning decided to go back to the guesthouse first. What if Zhou Shixun and Luo Caixia started chatting again and forgot about her?

After taking a few steps, I heard someone screaming in pain not far behind me.

Sheng An Ning turned around and saw the old lady she was chatting with lying on the ground. Two men overturned her cart, snatched things from her and ran away.

Without thinking, I ran towards the old lady who had fallen, thinking that at her age and in such a cold weather, it would be easy for something to happen to her if she fell.

By the time they got there, the two robbers had already run away.

Sheng An Ning quickly squatted down and supported the old lady who couldn't move: "Auntie?"

She didn't notice at all that someone was quietly approaching from behind and hitting her with a wooden stick!
