Xiao Shuo had just finished the operation and the anesthetic effect had just worn off. He was struggling to sit up from the hospital bed.
The operation process was like a long dream to him.
Although he appeared calm and stable, he was prepared for permanent blindness.
But the operation was really completed, and it seemed like hope was planted in his heart, making him unable to help but look forward to it, but also a little afraid that his expectations would be dashed.
But he is still in the recovery period after the operation, and we have to wait for some time to see whether he can regain his sight.
He felt a little uneasy for the first time in a long time.
Before he fell asleep under anesthesia, he was muttering Ji Qingwan.
At this moment, he inexplicably wanted to see her.
But what reason does he have to see her?
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly heard a familiar sound of footsteps.
He was in a trance for a moment, a little bit unbelieving, as if he was in a dream, and asked without thinking.
"Miss Ji, is that you?"
Ji Qingwan, who had just reached the door of the ward, was stunned and slowed down her anxious steps.
Why does his tone sound a little...surprised?
She looked up at the ward and saw Xiao Shuo half-leaning on the bed, his eyes still wrapped in gauze, and he seemed no different from before.
It's an illusion, absolutely an illusion.
Ji Qingwan's worries were mostly gone, and she deliberately slowed down a bit and followed behind Shen Yunqing.
After finally making things clear, she finally came to terms with it.
This is just out of concern for acquaintances and friends, and she can't let others misunderstand that she has other intentions!
Shen Yunqing didn't notice the subtle atmosphere between the two of them at all. He also breathed a sigh of relief and walked in with a smile.
"Brother Xiao, I don't think your ears are that sharp. How come you only heard Qingwan's footsteps and didn't hear mine?"
Xiao Shuo paused and immediately came to his senses.
"It's Yunqing, you're here too."
"Yeah." Shen Yunqing said as he walked in.
"We were originally going to the branch hospital to bring you food, but we heard that you were suddenly transferred to another hospital. We were terrified, thinking something had happened."
"But now it seems, Brother Xiao, you are okay?"
After hearing Shen Yunqing's question, Ji Qingwan immediately looked at Xiao Shuo.
Xiao Shuo forced a smile.
"It's nothing, I just came here to have surgery."
Shen Yunqing couldn't help but be surprised.
"Surgery so soon?"
"Qingzhou is really amazing. She actually decided on the surgical plan so quickly. She is worthy of her reputation."
Ji Qingwan also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, for a long while, it was Shen Yunqing who was talking, and Ji Qingwan hardly spoke.
Xiao Shuo felt inexplicably lost, but he just maintained a smile, nodded, and responded lightly.
"yes."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be interested in chatting, Shen Yunqing didn't ask any more questions and turned back to look at Ji Qingwan.
"Qingwan, why are you still carrying your lunch box? Aren't your hands sore?"
She pulled over the small table and motioned Ji Qingwan to bring the food over.
Ji Qingwan hesitated for a moment and let out a breath silently.
Now that everything has been made clear, what's there to be awkward about?
She took two steps forward carrying her lunch box, and then...
He handed the lunch box to Shen Yunqing.
Chen Yunqing: ???
Although the words have been made clear, there was still a misunderstanding, so we still have to avoid suspicion.
Chen Yunqing thought she was being lazy and gave her a reproachful look. He placed the food in front of Xiao Shuo in order and introduced them one by one.
Xiao Shuo listened silently and asked a question intentionally or unintentionally.
"Did you do all this?"
Shen Yunqing smiled and waved his hand.
"Of course not. My cooking skills are not that good yet."
"I made my best dish, scrambled eggs with cucumber, and this lotus root and pork rib soup is Aunt Ye's creation."
"Oh, by the way, that little green vegetable was made by Qingwan."
After listening, Xiao Shuo picked up the chopsticks and reached towards the green vegetables intentionally or unintentionally.
After tasting it, he smiled.
“It tastes delicious.”
Ji Qingwan was dazzled by the smile, then quickly came back to her senses.
Can you praise this?
She knew her level well. The dishes she cooked were edible at best, not as good as those of Shen Yunqing and Ye Lanqing.
He couldn't see it, so he probably just happened to be the first one to eat her dish.
Tsk, what bad luck!
"You're so polite."
Ji Qingwan smiled guiltily.
Shen Yunqing wanted to pour a glass of water for Xiao Shuo, but when he picked up the thermos, he found that it was empty.
She stood up: "You guys chat first, I'll go get a pot of hot water."
Ji Qingwan glanced at Xiao Shuo.
If Shen Yunqing went to get some water, wouldn't the ward be left with only...
She stood up suddenly and said, "Why don't I go?"
Shen Yunqing gave her a strange look.
"What's the point of arguing about this? It's just fetching water, it's not tiring."
After saying that, she took the thermos and walked out.
There were still only two of them left in the ward.
Xiao Shuo put down his chopsticks at some point and looked quietly in the direction of Ji Qingwan.
After struggling for a moment, he still wanted to finish what he hadn't said last time.
"Qingwan, actually..."
As he spoke, Ji Qingwan took a step back and stood further away from the bed to keep her distance.
Xiao Shuo noticed the footsteps and paused.
"What are you doing?"
Ji Qingwan had tried to be as quiet as possible, but she still managed to be heard.
It was a bit embarrassing, so I had to explain.
"After all, there are differences between men and women. We still need to keep our distance."
"Brother Xiao, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean anything else. I just want you to rest assured. I really don't have that kind of feeling towards you anymore!"
Brother Xiao?
