I slept until I woke up naturally, and when I looked at my watch, it was already past nine o'clock. We had agreed to go at nine o'clock.
He jumped out of the bed, wiped his face casually, slipped out of the space, and walked towards the hospital.
Fortunately, it’s close and only a few steps away.
When Su Ruoli arrived, Lu Chen had already fallen asleep. Lu's mother and father were sitting beside him, talking in low voices with their heads down.
Su Ruoli knocked on the door gently. The two looked up and saw that it was Su Ruoli, and stood up from the stool.
Mother Lu walked over and took Su Ruoli's hand, saying, "Ruoli, you're here. Why don't you rest for a while?"
"Auntie, I've had enough rest. It's so late, you and uncle should go back and rest. I'll just watch over here."
"That's impossible. You're just a little girl, how can you stay up all night?" Mother Lu said disapprovingly.
"It's okay, Auntie. I'm young and in good health. Don't worry." Su Ruoli said with a comforting smile.
Father Lu also spoke up, "Ruoli is such a kind-hearted child, so don't refuse. We can't help much here, and we'll just cause trouble. Go back, and we'll come early tomorrow."
Mother Lu thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she nodded and told Su Ruoli to send someone to find them if anything happened. Then, Lu's parents left the hospital.
Su Ruoli sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Lu Chen quietly, with a thousand thoughts in her mind.
Su Ruoli reached out and gently touched Lu Chen's forehead. His temperature was normal.
At this moment, Lu Chen's fingers moved and his eyes slowly opened.
Su Ruoli said: "Lu Chen, you're awake!"
Lu Chen looked at Su Ruoli, smiled, and said, "Ruoli, you're here..."
Su Ruoli grabbed Lu Chen's hand and said, "If Zhang Hao hadn't come to find me today, you would have..." As she spoke, Su Ruoli's voice choked and tears welled up in her eyes.
Su Ruoli sniffed and continued, "You know what? I dreamed the night before that you were injured and the bleeding wouldn't stop, and you told me not to worry."
"I'm fine." Lu Chen reached out and wiped away the tears from the corners of Su Ruoli's eyes. "It's just a minor injury. It will be healed in a few days."
"You still say it's a minor injury!" Su Ruoli glared at him angrily, "He's unconscious and you still say it's a minor injury. Do you know that it's a heart injury? What if..."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "I was a soldier before, so this little injury is nothing."
Su Ruoli sighed.
Lu Chen looked at Su Ruoli and said seriously, "Xiao Li'er, this time it's all thanks to you. Thank you for saving me."
"Thank me and get well soon." Su Ruoli scolded, "Don't take risks like this again in the future."
Lu Chen nodded, "I understand. I promise I won't do it again next time."
Su Ruoli smiled and said, "That's about right. Are you hungry?"
Lu Chen shook his head. "I'm not hungry, just a little thirsty."
Su Ruoli stood up and poured Lu Chen a glass of boiled water, put it aside, and then helped Lu Chen sit up.
He took the spoon and slowly fed Lu Chen water.
"Xiao Li'er, this water doesn't taste good." Lu Chen said with some disdain, "The water I drank in my dream was delicious. The porridge you gave me this afternoon was also delicious, and tasted just like that water."
Su Ruoli's hand trembled, and some of the water in the spoon spilled out. She forced a smile, "Can you taste something even in your dreams?"
Lu Chen chuckled twice, "Of course I can, I even dreamed that you were taking care of me."
Su Ruoli's face turned pale. She felt that Lu Chen's words were meant to imply something. Did he know something?
"I added some special medicine into the porridge, which will help your wound." Su Ruoli said.
After feeding Lu Chen some water, he helped him lie down again.
Watching Lu Chen close his eyes and rest, Su Ruoli sat on the stool beside the bed, supporting her chin with both hands.
She secretly thought to herself, this man is really amazing. Even when he was unconscious, he could still taste the flavor. This made her afraid to give him the spiritual spring water anymore.
For the next few days, Su Ruoli stayed in the hospital to take care of Lu Chen.
Lu Chen's health gradually recovered, and the relationship between the two became deeper during this period.
That morning, Su Ruoli changed Lu Chen's medicine as usual and was about to go back to the dormitory to cook.
"Ruoli." Lu Chen suddenly called her.
"Hmm?" Su Ruoli turned around and looked at Lu Chen, "What's wrong?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Nothing, I just wanted to tell you that I feel much better and I want to be discharged from the hospital."
"You can be discharged from the hospital, but you have to rest well after you go back." Su Ruoli said.
"Yeah." Lu Chen nodded. "I'll have a good rest. I'm going crazy staying in this hospital."
Su Ruoli said, "Then wait here for a while. I'll go and handle the discharge procedures for you, and tell Auntie and the others as well."
Su Ruoli found a young nurse, gave her two cents, and asked her to help call Lu Chen's parents.
The young nurse took the money and ran away happily. She could earn two cents just by running errands, and she loved doing this job.
Su Ruoli quickly completed the discharge procedures, which shocked all the doctors and the dean. They praised Lu Chen for his good physical condition and his quick recovery.
With the blessing of the spiritual spring water, no matter how bad he is, she will doubt the uselessness of the spiritual spring water.
Su Ruoli packed up everything in the ward and waited for Lu Chen's family to arrive.
Lu Chen's family arrived quickly. Seeing that Su Ruoli had already packed, they each carried a bunch of things. They quickly carried her packed things and walked away in front.
She was left with nothing and could only help Lu Chen.
Out of the hospital.
"Finally discharged from the hospital." Lu Chen took a deep breath and felt the fresh air outside.
"Xiao Li'er, thank you for taking care of me these days." Lu Chen said seriously.
"Why are you being so polite? I'm not your partner yet." Su Ruoli said with a slight blush on her face.
Lu Chen looked at Su Ruoli and involuntarily reached out and rubbed her hair.
"Xiao Li'er, I want to file a marriage report."
Su Ruoli looked up at Lu Chen. So soon? She didn't seem ready to get married yet.
As soon as he said this, Lu Chen became nervous, afraid that Su Ruoli would reject him.
After waiting for Su Ruoli's answer for a long time, Lu Chen looked down at Su Ruoli and found that she was staring at him blankly.
She wondered in her heart if he had scared her, what…what should he say next.
Mother Lu and the others were waiting in front with things in their hands. When they didn't see the two of them, Mother Lu asked Father Lu to come in and take a look.
Dad Lu came over and saw the two of them standing there blankly, so he called out to Lu Chen, "Achen, what are you two doing?"
Lu's father's words instantly broke the awkward atmosphere between the two.
Su Ruoli came back to her senses and cursed herself for being useless. It was just one sentence, and she didn't know how to react.
