Chapter 115 How come I couldn't even withstand a single glance?
When the two brothers arrived at the hospital, Yan Buyu was already on an IV drip.
Si Jingxu sat beside her, holding her hand that wasn't hooked up to an IV drip, his brows furrowed as he stared intently at the sleeping girl.
The two Shen brothers hurried in, but seeing that Yan Buyu was sleeping, they both slowed down.
Si Jingxu raised his hand, signaling them to be quiet, and placed Yan Bu's hand back on the bedside, carefully covering it up.
He got up and followed the two brothers out to explain the child's condition.
"Acute gastroenteritis," Si Jingxu said succinctly. "Sorry, Yanzhou, I didn't take good care of my sister."
"How is she doing now?" Shen Yanzhou's voice was a little hoarse.
"I vomited twice and had diarrhea twice, but now I can sleep while on an IV drip," Si Jingxu replied.
This was the first time Shen Yanzhou had encountered his younger sister's illness. Seeing her lying there so small and pale, he felt as if his heart was being pierced by needles.
He wished he could take his sister's pain upon himself.
When you get sick, you can't blame anyone else.
This person, who is usually indifferent and doesn't care about anything, actually wants to criticize Si Jingxu for a few words.
But he already apologized.
When did Si Jingxu ever apologize?
"It's nothing." Shen Yunqi had been listening for a while and saw that the two of them were acting like the earth was about to explode.
One was frowning and blaming himself terribly, while the other was so anxious that his voice became hoarse.
“She has a sensitive stomach, and eating too much spicy food can easily give her diarrhea. She must have eaten something cold and then meat, and tried all sorts of random things.”
Si Jingxu looked at Shen Yunqi in surprise.
He had thought that Shen Yunqi would be very angry and question him about his opinion of his sister.
"She just needs to rest for a couple of days. She likes to eat bread when she has gastroenteritis." Shen Yunqi took out his phone. "I'll order her some bread. She'll be fine when she wakes up."
Shen Yunqi patted Shen Yanzhou on the shoulder, "Go in and keep an eye on her medicine."
Then he turned to Si Jingxu and said, "Just keep an eye on her from now on."
After Shen Yunqi finished speaking, he turned around and went outside to wait for the bread delivery.
She ran to a corner where no one could see her, pouted, and cried twice.
Silence is most afraid of pain.
Every time he suffered from gastroenteritis and couldn't speak due to stomach pain, it broke his heart.
But he is not the same Shen Yunqi as before. He has seen how good Si Jingxu is to his sister, and he believes that this is mostly his sister's own responsibility.
Although she's twenty, she's still a child who hasn't grown up and needs someone to watch over her in everything.
Yan Buyu woke up, opened her eyes and saw three men standing by the bed, then immediately closed her eyes again.
It's over.
From now on, she will completely lose her right to snack freely.
"Yan Buyu, I saw you open your eyes." Shen Yunqi walked to the bedside, bent down to touch her face, and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"
Yan Buyu slowly opened his eyes, grinned, and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
"Would you like some water?" Shen Yanzhou brought over a glass of warm water. "Can I raise the bed?"
After obtaining her consent, the headboard was raised, and she sat up halfway up.
“Brother Jingxu, we ate together, how come you’re alright?” She glanced at the man standing at the foot of the bed for a long time without saying a word and asked.
Si Jingxu's eyes were gentle, and his voice was low, "I have good physical fitness."
"Hehe." Yan Buyu gave a fawning smile, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
Over the next few minutes, she endured a series of lectures from three men.
Firstly, she shouldn't feel like she's a burden; her health should be her top priority.
Secondly, it was said that she shouldn't have eaten random foods outside when she knew she was prone to gastroenteritis.
She lowered her head silently, looking aggrieved, and said, "I thought I was better."
That's just how people are; once the wound heals, they forget the pain.
She looked so dejected that none of the three of them wanted to say another word.
Shen Yunqi brought over some bread, opened the packaging, and broke it into small pieces for her.
Shen Yanzhou poured out the water that had cooled down and poured himself a fresh cup.
Si Jingxu took a hot towel and naturally helped her wipe her face and hands.
He remained silent, feeling awkward and helpless, but dared not utter a sound.
The way these three brothers acted, if she said anything more, she would be pulled aside and lectured a few more times.
With the three people taking care of her tirelessly, she was discharged from the hospital after only two days.
She had a rosy complexion and was in good spirits, while the three men looked several years older.
Si Jingxu was pampered growing up, and being in that social class, he didn't need to consider other people's feelings at all.
But after meeting Yan Buyu, everything changed.
He would laugh along when she was happy.
When she was wronged, he wanted to kill the person who bullied her.
He felt incredibly guilty when she was sick and unwell.
It was guilt, an emotion he had never felt before in his entire life.
During the two days Yan Buyu was hospitalized, he kept thinking that if he had kept a close eye on her and prevented her from eating random street food, this situation might not have happened.
"Brother Jingxu, is it okay if I drink it without ice?" Yan Buyu asked softly beside him.
Si Jingxu glanced down at her and said, "What do you think?"
"I'll talk? I can talk, I'm really better now." Yan Buyu had been forced to drink warm water for several days. She craved coolness and couldn't drink ice water in the sweltering summer heat, which was truly unbearable.
"You think it's okay just because you say so?" Si Jingxu said coldly. "If you say it again, there won't even be any room temperature drinks left. You'll have to drink the brown sugar ginger tea your second brother made for you."
If he hadn't been stared at by her big, watery eyes for a moment, he wouldn't have even given her the drink.
How come I couldn't even get past one glance?
She took a sip of the steaming hot brown sugar water and broke out in a sweat. "Room temperature is fine, it's good, Brother Jingxu," she said.
Before leaving, her older brother and sister went to discuss a project. Instead of lecturing her, they pulled Si Jingxu aside and gave her a thorough lecture.
Why……
Si Jingxu smiled and said, "Stop sighing. Go see what you like. I'll give it to you as compensation."
He took Yan Buyu to a jewelry store, patted her back gently, and gestured for her to take a look.
“You don’t need to do this, Brother Jingxu, it has nothing to do with you,” Yan Buyu said listlessly. “It was my responsibility in the first place. I should be thankful that you are physically strong and didn’t get an upset stomach, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to afford to make up for it.”
Under her guidance, the young master of the Si family ate at a roadside stall and ended up in the hospital. She's afraid she'll be beaten up by the Si family.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm still alive, who would dare to make things difficult for you?" Si Jingxu pinched her cheek. "Just take a look."
The shop assistants knew their stuff; although they couldn't tell the brand of the clothes the customers were wearing, the quality and workmanship were definitely high-end.
Two employees followed them attentively.
“Hey.” Yan Buyu’s gaze fell on a pair of earrings.
The sales assistant, quick to notice, immediately took out the earrings. "Madam, you have excellent taste! These are our most classic peacock feather earrings. Shall I put them on for you?"
Si Jingxu also looked over and curled the corners of his lips.
She really loves feather designs.
