Liu Qingmeng quickly turned her head away. This was too embarrassing! Why was her stomach making noise at this time?
Are you hungry?
"A little bit."
"You were sleeping while we were eating, so it's normal to be hungry."
"I won't drink so much alcohol again."
"You still know that? If I had come back any later, the two of you could have finished that bottle."
"It's not that exaggerated, is it? I don't care, I'm saying I'm hungry."
"You wait."
Wang Xinghe stopped the car, ran to the convenience store on the side of the road, and bought Liu Qingmeng a big bag of snacks.
Wow! Xingxing, you bought so many snacks!
"You eat first, and if you can't finish it, take it to the orphanage for the children."
“I can finish it. You bought it for me, but I won’t give it to the kids. Kids shouldn’t eat too many snacks, or they won’t eat their meals.”
"And what about you? You eat too many snacks and don't eat meals either?"
"I'm definitely different. I'm an adult, I have self-control, okay? Leave it to me, you can rest assured."
Wang Xinghe looked at Liu Qingmeng suspiciously, wondering if he could really trust her.
"Alright, alright, let's go back quickly. I've already told the children that I'll go back and play with them this afternoon."
"Fasten your seatbelts, we're ready to go."
Wang Xinghe had just fastened his seatbelt and started the car when his phone rang.
"That's strange, why is Aunt Hu calling at this hour?"
Wang Xinghe's heart skipped a beat; he had a bad feeling.
"Then answer it quickly and see what's wrong."
Wang Xinghe answered the phone.
"Xinghe, come back quickly! Dean Chen has vomited blood!"
"What? He's vomiting blood? I'm coming right back. Have you called an ambulance yet?"
"No! Dean Chen told me not to call her. Come back quickly and take her to the hospital!"
"Okay, I'll be right there!"
Seeing that Wang Xinghe's expression had changed, Liu Qingmeng immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
"Dean Chen vomited blood. We need to go back immediately. I'll take her to the hospital."
"Why would you vomit blood? It's alright, Xingxing, Dean Chen will be fine."
"I know, it'll be fine." Wang Xinghe floored the accelerator, while Liu Qingmeng quickly took out her phone.
"Hello, please contact the best hospital emergency room in Ningjiang City for me immediately."
Upon arriving at the welfare home, Wang Xinghe opened the car door and rushed back inside.
Where is Dean Chen?
"Brother Xinghe, why are you in such a hurry? Dean Chen and Grandma Hu are inside. They told us to come out and play in the yard."
"Come on, let Sister Mengmeng play with you, okay?"
Liu Qingmeng gave Wang Xinghe a look, and Wang Xinghe quickly went inside.
"Dean Chen! What happened? Why are you vomiting blood?"
"It's nothing serious, it's probably just a cold I caught a couple of days ago, some medicine will do the trick."
"No! We need to go to the hospital right now. Mengmeng has already arranged a hospital for you. Let's go to the hospital for a check-up."
"No! Xinghe, I know my own body. I'm not going to the hospital."
"Dean Chen, just listen to Xinghe. We'll feel at ease if you go to the hospital for a checkup," Aunt Hu advised from the side.
"Dean Chen, you've vomited blood. Come with me to the hospital for a checkup."
"I'm not going! I said I'm not going, and I mean it!"
"What's wrong?" Liu Qingmeng heard Dean Chen's voice and came in.
"Mengmeng, try to persuade Dean Chen; she refuses to go to the hospital."
"Dean Chen, why don't you go to the hospital with Xinghe and get a check-up? If it's just a minor cold, then we'll be relieved."
“Mengmeng, I know my body. I can’t leave the orphanage. Please don’t try to persuade me. I’m not going to the hospital.”
Wang Xinghe and Liu Qingmeng exchanged glances.
“Dean Chen, if you don’t go to the hospital, I’ll have the doctors come to the welfare home to examine you. Then the children will all know that Dean Chen is sick.”
"Xinghe, you can't do this!"
"Yes, Dean Chen, you know we can't do it this way, the children will definitely cry. So, Dean Chen, what do you say, should we go or not?"
"Sigh, I'll go with you, okay? Let's go to the hospital."
"Come on, Mengmeng, let's go to the hospital. The orphanage is in your care for now, Aunt Hu."
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
"Where's Aunt Wu? Did she go grocery shopping?"
"Yes, your Aunt Wu went to buy groceries. She should be back soon. I can manage on my own. You guys should go now."
"Alright, we'll be going now."
As Wang Xinghe and his group came out of the house, the children saw that they were going out together and quickly followed.
"Brother Xinghe, where are you going? Can we go with you?"
"Yes, yes, we want to go too. Brother Xinghe, can you take us with you?"
"Children, why don't you just stay quietly in the orphanage? We're going to prepare a surprise for you. If you find out now, it won't be a surprise anymore."
"What a surprise!"
"Yes, Sister Mengmeng, can you tell me what the surprise is!"
“You all say it’s a surprise. If I told you beforehand, what would be the point of a surprise? Just listen to Grandma Hu and you’ll find out when we get back.”
"Okay then, you must come back soon, Sister Mengmeng."
We'll be back soon!
After finally calming the children down, Wang Xinghe didn't dare to delay any longer. Along the way, Liu Qingmeng chatted with Dean Chen in the back while Wang Xinghe focused on driving at a very high speed.
"Xinghe, you don't need to drive so fast, it's really okay."
"Dean Chen, I wasn't driving fast, it was a normal speed."
"Alright, Dean Chen, let's leave him alone. Have you been experiencing any symptoms lately?"
"No, everything is normal. If you have any symptoms, let's go to the hospital but don't do any tests, just get some medicine and that'll be fine. Don't waste the money."
"Okay, Dean Chen, then we should at least have a doctor take a look. But when we go to the hospital, they don't just prescribe medicine."
"Alright, let's take a look then. No need for a physical examination."
"Okay, don't worry. When we get to the hospital, we'll just listen to the doctor and do whatever he tells us to do."
Upon arriving at Ningjiang Central Hospital, Wang Xinghe had barely parked his car when a group of doctors swarmed around him.
"Hello, Ms. Liu, I am the director of Ningjiang Central Hospital. My surname is Zhang. All the doctors in our hospital are at your service."
"Thank you for your hard work, Dean Zhang. This is Dean Chen. Please take her for a medical check-up first."
Seeing such a grand reception, Dean Chen was taken aback. Why was the dean personally coming to greet them?
"No need, Mengmeng, I just have a common cold, I don't need so many doctors."
At this moment, two female doctors came up and affectionately took Dean Chen's arm.
