Chapter 38 Do you want me to help you change your clothes?
On the other side.
Lin Zhihuan has arrived at the company of the friend who previously did live streams for her.
Since the other party did not answer the phone, she went upstairs to look for them.
The other person was a little surprised when they saw her.
"Huanhuan, what brings you here?" A girl named Xiao Xiao came out.
"Xiao Xiao, I need to talk to you about something." Lin Zhihuan glanced at the others inside first, then pulled Xiao Xiao outside.
"What's going on? Why are you being so mysterious?" Xiao Xiao asked curiously.
"I messaged you last night, why didn't you reply?" Lin Zhihuan asked first.
“I’m speechless about this,” Xiao Xiao said helplessly. “All of us staff members involved in the on-site work of ‘The Voice of Heaven’ had our phones confiscated yesterday.”
"What's going on?" Lin Zhihuan immediately had a bad feeling.
The stage for "Yesterday Once More" has been sanctioned.
Of all times, at this very moment.
They happened to be staff members working on-site for "The Voice of Heaven".
"Actually, I don't know either," Xiao Xiao said. "We haven't returned the phone yet, so I borrowed a phone from outside to call my mom and let her know I was safe."
"I'm sorry, the company is making it sound very serious. I passed by the conference room at noon and overheard people discussing a confidentiality agreement."
Seeing that Lin Zhihuan's complexion was not good, Xiao Xiao held her hand with concern.
Xiao Xiao said, "What's wrong? Tell me, and I'll see if I can help you."
...
In the hospital ward.
Shi Nian wrinkled her nose and said, "Since it smells so good, why don't you hurry up and put it on Shi Nian's small table?"
As Shi Nian spoke, she reached out and placed the small table in place, patted the table, and looked at Lin Yuchen.
Lin Yuchen raised an eyebrow. "Okay, great!"
She acts like an innocent little rabbit in front of his sister all day long, but when it's just the two of them, she becomes sharp-tongued.
However, this is his favorite.
If it weren't for the fact that she liked Lu Yanzhi, he would have made his move long ago.
Thinking it over, Lin Yuchen sat down on a chair to the side, placed the lunchboxes on her table, and slowly and methodically took them out one by one and arranged them.
"It's all set out. Shi Nian, dinner's ready." Lin Yuchen said, gesturing for them to eat.
That's treating her like a kindergarten child.
Shi Nian didn't mind and started eating with her chopsticks.
The dishes today are quite good, comparable to the vegetable and lean meat porridge that Lin Zhihuan brought her the other day.
She casually asked, "Where did you buy it? I'll remember the shop."
Lin Yuchen simply smiled and asked, "You like it?"
"Mm." Shi Nian nodded.
“Then tell me if you want to eat it next time, and I’ll go buy it for you,” Lin Yuchen said with a smile.
Shi Nian choked.
She was coughing quite badly, and bumped into a plate on the table, spilling some soup on her clothes.
Lin Yuchen patted her back and handed her a tissue.
"You get so angry after just a few words." Lin Yuchen was a little speechless.
Shi Nian finally calmed down, took a tissue to wipe herself, and said, "Brother Lin, please don't. It's just that Huanhuan went out today, otherwise I wouldn't dare to eat the things you sent."
Lin Yuchen tapped his forehead lightly with his index finger and said, "The way you're talking makes me a little sad."
Shi Nian didn't know what to say, so she just gave him a helpless look.
Seeing that there was a lot of soup spilled, Shi Nian went to the restroom to change her clothes.
Lin Yuchen reached out to help her.
Shi Nian tried to refuse twice but failed, so she had no choice but to let him have his way.
He couldn't possibly follow her into the restroom.
The single ward is divided into two parts: one is the bedside area, and the other is a balcony separated by a water-patterned glass door, which ensures privacy while allowing sunlight to pass through.
There is a bathroom on the balcony.
Shi Nian went into the bathroom, where Lin Yuchen was waiting for her on the balcony.
In the restroom, Shi Nian looked at the clothes in her hands, thought for a moment, and finally spoke up.
“Brother Yuchen, Huanhuan and I have been playing together since we were little, we are very good friends. You are her brother, so I also consider you my brother.”
Only when separated by the bathroom door did Shi Nian dare to speak.
"So, don't take Huanhuan's jokes about whether or not she'll compensate you seriously."
Just a door away, Lin Yuchen stood outside, the smile on his face gradually fading.
The midday sun shone at his feet, and his eyes were a deep, silent darkness.
There was a silence of about a second.
Then, he said nonchalantly, "I know, isn't Huanhuan always like this, doing whatever comes to mind?"
Shi Nian, who was in the restroom, breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Lin Yuchen's voice sounded normal.
She was genuinely afraid that Lin Yuchen would take it seriously.
Because she had always only regarded him as Lin Zhihuan's brother, and nothing more.
Recently, Lin Zhihuan has been trying to bring them together. Although she has mentioned it to Lin Zhihuan many times, Lin Zhihuan still does things her own way.
It's good that we've talked things out today.
To avoid embarrassment later.
Thinking about it, Shi Nian quickly changed her clothes.
"Haha, judging from your voice, were you scared by Huanhuan?" Lin Yuchen's voice came from just outside the door. "Can you walk independently? Can you change your clothes by yourself? Do you need me to call someone for you?"
Hearing Lin Yuchen's teasing words, Shi Nian was completely relieved.
That same smug tone means there's nothing wrong.
So she said irritably, "I'll change it, it's none of your business!"
Shi Nian quickly changed her clothes. Holding her dirty clothes in one hand, she opened the bathroom door and glared at Lin Yuchen, who was standing outside smiling at her.
Still with that same carefree attitude, he reached out his hand: "Empress Dowager, please help me up."
Shi Nian put her hand on it to steady it, and the two walked toward the water-patterned glass door.
Through the rippled glass door, she seemed to vaguely see someone standing at the door of the ward.
It's just that I can't see it clearly.
The two opened the balcony door and came out.
A gust of wind blew through the hall, and Shi Nian shivered.
She looked at the open door to the ward, which was swaying gently, perhaps because of the wind.
"Brother Yuchen, was the door to the ward open just now?" Shi Nian asked.
"I don't remember." Lin Yuchen didn't take it to heart.
He walked straight over and closed the door to the ward.
Shi Nian nodded, not thinking much of it. Maybe she was mistaken, or maybe someone was just passing by. This was a hospital, and it was normal for people to come and go.
Outside the ward, Lu Yanzhi walked to the corner with a tense face.
Leaning against the wall at the corner, his lips were pressed tightly together.
The sounds of the two people joking on the balcony still lingered in his ears. Through the rippled glass door, he could vaguely see the two people leaning against each other.
Is this another one of her schemes?
Did she deliberately arrange for him to see her leaning against someone else, hoping to make him jealous?
Something was off from the moment he read out his room number at the front desk of the inpatient department.
They said it would take some time to check where Shi Nian was in her ward. Did they already receive the news by then?
I deliberately waited for him to come upstairs, and then put on a show for him.
Lu Yanzhi closed his eyes, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
