Chapter 18 She Really Needs Cheng Ji



Qin Qianyue hesitated and spoke in a much lower voice, revealing her guilty conscience, "I just accidentally stepped on empty air when going upstairs."

She pulled Cheng Ji's arm and acted coquettishly, "Brother, I was in so much pain at that time, and there was no one at home..."

At this time, the nurse came in with the medical record.

"Here is the patient's medical record. Which of your family members would like to go and talk to the attending physician about the patient's condition?"

"I'll go over there."

Cheng Ji stood up without hesitation.

He looked at Shangguan Qing and said slowly, "Wait for me in the ward for a while."

"Yeah, it's okay, go ahead." She responded with a faint smile.

As the door of the ward opened and closed, only Shangguan Qing and Qin Qianyue were left in the enclosed space.

She raised her legs and crossed them, exuding a cool aura.

"Now that we're alone, tell me the truth. How did you get hurt? Or are you not hurt at all?"

Shangguan Qing gave him a suspicious look and his words were full of suspicion.

She didn't believe it was such a coincidence.

The first time she and Cheng Ji went out to play, they saw Qin Qianyue with an injured leg.

It wouldn’t have been hurt earlier or later, but it happened today.

Qin Qianyue glanced at her with disdain, picked up the orange on the bedside table and began to peel it.

"What's it to you?"

She took a bite of the orange, it was so sour, and put it down again.

"Even Orange bullies me! I tell you, Shangguan Qing, as long as I'm here, you can't get involved with my brother!"

She understood what was said.

"It means you did it on purpose."

She stood up and tapped the plaster.

Qin Qianyue reacted quickly and violently, reaching out to stop her, as if she was afraid of getting hurt again.

"It looks like you're really hurt," she snorted, her eyes grim, "You're pretty cruel to yourself, you really have the guts to do that."

This time Qin Qianyue lowered her head and said nothing.

She did miss a step when going up the stairs.

He just missed the opportunity on purpose after hearing that Cheng Ji and Shangguan Qing were going out to play together.

Just to ruin their date.

"Sister Qianyue, listen to my advice. Even if your brother and I weren't together, it wouldn't be your turn."

"So why can't I be the one standing next to your brother? Why do you have to ruin your body?"

What's more, she really needs Cheng Ji.

Whether she can drink Mengpo soup, walk across the Naihe Bridge, and reincarnate successfully, all depends on him.

Qin Qianyue was furious when she heard her words, "You are dreaming. My brother gave up dating you and came to me, which means he cares about me!"

Otherwise, why would he rush here without stopping?

What kind of train of thought is this?

Shangguan Qing was simply impressed by her.

His sister was injured and hospitalized, how could he, as a brother, still have time to play?

If this kind of brain were put into an ancient palace drama, he would be killed within one episode.

Shangguan Qing didn't want to argue with the stupid kid, it was pointless.

I simply sat quietly on the stool, closed my eyes and waited for Cheng Ji to come back.

......

Attending physician's office.

Cheng Ji sat opposite the doctor and looked up at the X-ray film on the wall.

It was obvious that the ligament in the right ankle was torn.

The doctor was a man in his forties. He pointed to the wound on the X-ray and said, "The ligament has been sutured. There is no big problem, but the patient asked a very strange question at the time."

"What's the question?"

He turned to the attending physician with a puzzled look.

"She asked if the injury was serious enough?" The doctor tilted his head and frowned, as if in deep thought. "Patients usually don't say words like enough or not, so I want to ask... does she have a tendency to self-harm?"

After all, there are too many patients in the hospital and the causes of injuries are varied.

There are countless cases of physical injuries caused by psychological reasons, and their behavior is just to attract the attention of their family.

After hearing these words, she thought about what she had just seen Shangguan Qing.

Cheng Ji understood.

"Don't worry, doctor. She doesn't have any tendency to self-harm," he paused, "How long will it take for her to recover?"

The doctor looked at the X-ray and said, "If the recovery is good, it will take about three months. Remember to come for a checkup every two weeks."

Cheng Ji walked out of the office, the doctor's words "Is it serious enough?" kept echoing in his mind.

His eyes suddenly turned cold.

Now people dare to gamble with their own bodies.

“Snap!”

Cheng Ji turned the doorknob and the door opened.

"Brother, you're back."

Qin Qianyue looked towards the door excitedly, only to see Cheng Ji looking at her sternly.

He seems angry.

"I sent a message to my father, he is on his way to the hospital now."

What did she mean by being busy and unable to come to the hospital? It was obvious that she didn't tell Qin Guotao at all.

Now that we have grown up, we have learned how to lie!

Qin Qianyue pouted in disappointment and pulled the quilt cover hard with both hands.

"You already know everything." His tone was filled with grievance.

She just wanted him to spend more time with her.

Who made him focus all his attention on this woman after he got married to Shangguan Qing? She had been with him for ten years, but he never treated her like this.

The brother and sister wanted to have a conversation, and Shangguan Qing felt it was inappropriate for him to be present.

She stood up and said, "I'll wait for you outside."

Then he walked out of the ward to make room for them.

Cheng Ji helplessly relaxed his shoulders, suppressed his anger and said patiently, "Qianyue, you are not a child anymore, don't joke about your body in the future."

The grievance in her heart suddenly surged violently, and tears flowed down like pearl strings, hitting the quilt.

"You really don't know why I do this?"

Ten years!

Not one or two years, but a full ten years.

From the day Cheng Ji was adopted by Qin Guotao, she liked him. Even Shangguan Qing could see it after only meeting her for a few days.

Why hasn’t Cheng Ji understood it in ten years?

"Brother, do you really not understand, or are you pretending not to see?"

Things have developed to this point, and she doesn't care about breaking the window paper.

Cheng Ji looked confused, "What do you mean?"

Isn't she just doing this for attention?

Just like when they were children, he got a dog, which resulted in him spending less time with her, so she gave the dog away the next day.

She said at the time, "I won't allow my family to love anyone more than me, not even an animal!"

Therefore, whenever she made any move over the years, he thought it was because he didn't pay enough attention to her.

Qin Qianyue felt both sad and funny when she saw his reaction.

I cried because I had been wishful thinking for ten years and the other party had no idea about it at all.

It’s funny because I’ve been doing this one-man show for so long and I still think I’m special.

"Brother, I want to say——"

"Qianyue!" Qin Guotao suddenly rushed into the ward, "How are you?"

Shangguan Qing stood at the door with his arms folded across his chest, looking coldly at Cheng Ji's back, then at Qin Qianyue who was lying on the bed with a distraught look on her face.

Suddenly I felt a little sympathy for her.

Forget it, my own affairs are still unresolved, why should I care about others?

Shangguan Qing shook his head and turned to leave the ward door.

......

Downstairs of the hospital.

Shangguan Qing sat on a bench in the small garden and took a deep breath. Finally, he no longer had to smell the disinfectant.

At this moment, a pair of black leather shoes suddenly stopped beside her.

"It was you who came to the hotel last time, right?"
