Mustering her courage, Bai Xiaoruo tilted her head back and quickly kissed Xian Mingyu on the cheek the moment he closed his eyes, then quickly pulled away.
Xuan Mingyu only felt a soft, fragrant touch on his face, and then it was gone.
He opened his eyes, somewhat annoyed. "Finished kissing?"
"It's over."
That's it?
"It's gone."
She's already kissed him, what more does he want?
"We agreed on just one kiss, don't try to back out. I'm really sleepy, I'm going to bed."
Hsien Ming-yu didn't really take it seriously.
Considering she was still injured, I'll stop here.
Anyway, once she recovers and I take her home, I can bully her however I want.
Xuan Mingyu helped Bai Xiaoruo lie down slowly and covered her with a blanket. "You go to sleep. I'm going back."
I originally came here tonight to ask her who she and her grandfather went to see yesterday, but she doesn't seem to be in good spirits right now, so I'll ask her another day.
He still had documents to review when he got back; he didn't have the time to waste on her antics.
"oh."
"If you need anything, just ring the bell. My bodyguards are outside the door, and no one will come in to bother you. If you miss me... just call me."
Pshaw~ Narcissist, who would want him?
Bai Xiaoruo pouted, pretending not to hear.
"Did you hear me?"
Seeing that she didn't say anything, it was clear that Xian Mingyu wouldn't leave so easily.
"Okay, I heard you."
Xuan Mingyu had already turned around and was almost at the door when he suddenly remembered something and turned back. The sound of his footsteps made Bai Xiaoruo, who had closed her eyes, open them immediately and look at him with confusion.
He bent down slightly, brushed the stray hairs from her forehead, and gently kissed her smooth forehead. "Goodnight."
Bai Xiaoruo was stunned and still hadn't reacted when Xuan Mingyu had already walked out the door.
She reached her hand out from under the covers and touched the spot on her forehead where he had just kissed her. A smile unconsciously crept onto her lips, and she felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
This was the first time he had ever said goodnight to her; those were such beautiful words.
"Keep a close eye on her. If anything happens to her again, I'll hold you all accountable! No one, not even a fly, is allowed in without my permission. If Bai Xiaoruo needs any help, you must report to me first. You can only help her after I give my approval."
"Yes, young master!"
After giving final instructions to the bodyguards outside the ward, Hsien Ming-yu left the hospital with peace of mind.
***
late at night.
Most of the corridor lights in the hospital were off, and patients in many wards were resting.
It's time for the on-duty nurses to make their rounds.
A young nurse wearing a mask avoided the other nurses on duty and made her way to the VIP ward floor. When she got close to Bai Xiaoruo's ward, she saw four bodyguards at the door and quickly turned around, hiding behind the corner, not daring to go any further.
Originally, there were only two bodyguards on guard, but now two more have been added, making the security even tighter.
It seems that Xuan Mingyu has really gone to great lengths to protect Bai Xiaoruo.
Once inside the emergency staircase, she took out her phone and made a call.
She lowered her voice: "Cousin, it's me... I messed up the thing you asked me to do."
"You messed it up? You can't even handle this little thing, how can you be so stupid!" The woman on the other end of the phone was so angry she was about to go crazy. She couldn't even handle such a small thing, what a useless person!
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I didn't expect that Xuan Mingyu would suddenly appear. Besides... I think the punishment given to Bai Xiaoruo is enough. Cousin, why don't we let her off the hook and stop targeting her?"
"Let her go? Have you lost your mind or what? Did that woman kick you in the head? How much did she bribe you with? Is she your cousin or me? You brat, you actually spoke up for her!"
“I didn’t mean to speak up for her… There are more and more bodyguards outside her ward, and I can’t get close to her at all now. Cousin, why don’t you find someone else? Anyway, I really can’t help you anymore. This time, it was thanks to her pleading with Xian Mingyu that the hospital didn’t fire me. Cousin, I really can’t be a bad person. At worst, I’ll return all the designer bags you gave me, okay? I haven’t even opened them yet.”
"Get out, get out! Who asked you to return those things! What use are you, you piece of trash! Don't contact me again, just go back to being your lousy nurse!" Lu Xinyao irritably hung up the call and threw her phone onto the bed.
Damn Bai Xiaoruo, why does she always manage to escape danger?! Every time, Xian Mingyu is there to help her!
Lu Xinyao finally managed to find out that Bai Xiaoruo was now in the hospital. She thought that her distant cousin was also working as an intern nurse at that hospital. She gave her a lot of benefits to persuade that girl to deal with Bai Xiaoruo, but she still failed!
That useless person is definitely no longer usable. If she gets caught again and exposes her, it will only make Xuan Mingyu more prejudiced against her.
Although they found the woman's information, Bai Xiaoruo is still a mystery. Apart from her name, nothing else can be found. It's as if she has been deliberately hidden away. Her age, parents, siblings, workplace, school, and people she interacts with are all blank. It's too much of a coincidence.
Bai Xiaoruo, I refuse to believe you can always use Xian Mingyu as a shield! If I get another chance, I definitely won't let you off so easily!
