Xie Yunzhou lay on the bed, still not understanding how he got there.
Where is this?
How did I end up meeting that spoiled little princess of the Shi family?
Just as he was racking his brains trying to figure it out, the door to the infusion room opened again.
Shi Xi came in carrying a bowl. "Dinner's ready."
It's like they're delivering prison food.
"Where is this? How did I get here?" Xie Yunzhou looked around. This place didn't look like a hospital; it looked more like some kind of shady clinic.
Shi Xi explained, "This is a small clinic in Longquan Village. I found you unconscious on my way home, so I brought you here."
Xie Yunzhou vaguely remembered that someone had gossiped that Shi Xi was not the biological daughter of the Shi family, and that her parents were actually from the countryside.
Shi Xi put the bowl on the table, took out her phone and handed it to him, saying, "I think your phone is missing. You can use mine to make a call for now."
Xie Yunzhou held the pink phone, somewhat at a loss, and said, "Thank you."
He then called his assistant and asked him to pick him up the next day.
I really have to thank Shi Xi this time.
Shi Xi: "It's okay, let's have some porridge."
Xie Yunzhou endured the pain and weakly said, "I have no strength."
Shi Xi exclaimed in surprise, "You're not going to die soon, are you?"
Xie Yunzhou: ?
He seemed to see surprise on Shi Xi's face.
Xie Yunzhou reflected on it. He had no dealings with the Shi family. He knew some of Shi Xi's older brothers, but they were definitely not enemies.
Does Shi Xi... dislike him?
Thinking about it, it makes sense. Shi Xi is the little princess of the Shi family in Fengcheng. She has always been pampered and cherished. How could she possibly be nice to others?
Xie Yunzhou said calmly, "My assistant will come to pick me up first thing tomorrow morning."
It's already evening, the road to Longquan Village is steep, and it's raining outside. He's not that stingy.
Shi Xi heard that although his tone was weak, he was still far from being "dead," so she said, "Let's talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow. Let's drink the porridge first."
Xie Yunzhou sat up halfway up, his arm and chest aching all the way down.
Shi Xi sat on the edge of the bed, scooped up a spoonful of white porridge, and fed it to him.
Xie Yunzhou was slightly surprised. He could sense that Shi Xi didn't like him, so why was he still feeding him porridge?
Shi Xi urged, "Eat quickly, I added some sugar, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
Xie Yunzhou suspected she had poisoned the bowl. But he and Shi Xi had no past grudges or recent conflicts, and if Shi Xi really wanted to harm him, she wouldn't have taken him to the hospital.
The girl carefully fed him porridge, her bright, sparkling eyes devoid of any impurity.
Rumors say that Shi Xi is arrogant and domineering, but it seems that seeing is believing and hearing is deceiving.
Xie Yunzhou pursed his lips and lowered his head to drink his porridge.
He felt a bit stronger after drinking a bowl of porridge.
After feeding him porridge, Shi Xi left.
After a while, the door to the infusion room was pushed open, and Shi Xi came in carrying a pillow, while her mother carried a new quilt.
Seeing Shi Xi make the bed, Xie Yunzhou was slightly surprised, "You're going to sleep here?"
Shi Xi had already taken a shower and was wearing a nightgown. She sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Yeah, this is like a hospital ward. What's wrong with sleeping together? It's not like we're sleeping in the same bed."
Does this mean she has to sleep in the female lead's boss's room?
Xie Yunzhou was speechless.
He was rescued by Shi Xi and is now living under someone else's roof. Where does he have room to refute?
Shi Xi was also desperate. Why did she not sleep in the huge bedroom in the Shi family, but come here to sleep in the infusion room?
Because the female lead lives in the Shi family.
Looking back now, she went back to the countryside to hide from the female lead, only to encounter the main villain and end up sleeping in the same room with him.
Sure enough, running away wouldn't solve the problem; it would only lead her to even more troublesome issues.
After Ning's mother left, Xie Yunzhou lay in bed, still able to smell the faint fragrance in the infusion room.
Xie Yunzhou couldn't sleep, so he struggled to get up.
