Chapter 44 I Want You to Say It Yourself
The rain on the island was getting heavier.
Many street lights are broken.
After a day and a night, Qi Jinzhou's nerves were almost numb. He hadn't slept for 24 hours. Zhang Qi saw that he was really tired, "Mr. Qi, do you want to take a rest? We'll be guarding here..."
There was suddenly a commotion ahead... By the time Zhang Qi reacted and turned around to tell Qi Jinzhou that they had found him, Qi Jinzhou was no longer there.
One day later.
Jiang Ning wanted to go to the bathroom, but no one came after ringing the bell for a long time. She really couldn't hold it in any longer.
She had no choice but to try to get up by herself. As soon as she stood up, she felt severe pain in her legs.
Qi Jinzhou came to the ward to visit Jiang Ning. Seeing that she wanted to get up, he took two steps at a time to support her.
Jiang Ning was quite resistant to his touch, and Qi Jinzhou also felt it, but he still didn't let go.
Qi Jinzhou frowned slightly, "Where's the nurse?"
"I have no idea."
Qi Jinzhou felt furious. He had clearly instructed a nurse to come and take care of Jiang Ning, but now there was no one around to go to the toilet even though the patient needed to.
Qi Jinzhou suppressed his temper and wanted to help Jiang Ning in, but Jiang Ning pushed his hand away, "Brother-in-law, I can do it on my own. I'm not going to be paralyzed."
Qi Jinzhou's face looked a little ugly.
Listening to Jiang Ning's heavy breathing and suppressed pain in the bathroom, he couldn't help but clench his fists.
He should bring her back to China for treatment as soon as possible, as the conditions in the hospital here are not good enough.
Jiang Ning endured the severe pain and managed to go to the toilet. When he came out, his face was pale with pain.
When Qi Jinzhou went to help her, Jiang Ning dodged his hand, stumbled to the bed, and lay down with difficulty.
Qi Jinzhou reached out and held her ankle. The warm breath touched her slightly cool skin, making her tremble slightly.
He wanted to check her wound, and Jiang Ning subconsciously wanted to avoid him again. Qi Jinzhou was a little angry, "Are you still angry about Zhou Qi and me?"
Jiang Ning avoided his gaze, expressionless, "Zhou Qi didn't want me to be like this, so he let me see him."
Qi Jinzhou's eyes turned cold, and he gripped Jiang Ning's slender ankle tightly. With her strength, there was no way she could escape from his grasp.
Jiang Ning struggled for a few times and finally gave up resisting.
"He took you to such a dangerous place and hurt you like this. How can he have the nerve to come and see you?"
Jiang Ning frowned. It was obvious that Qi Jinzhou didn't listen to her at all.
"I told you this had nothing to do with Zhou Qi. How many times do you want me to tell you this? It was Li Qi who did it. It was her. Not Zhou Qi. Why don't you let Zhou Qi see me? He's very worried about me!"
Qi Jinzhou ignored her and just lowered his head to lift up her trouser legs. Blood was faintly seeping from the white gauze.
The wound opened a little.
Qi Jinzhou's expression turned even colder. "You are not allowed to see Zhou Qi until your injury is healed."
Jiang Ning was furious. "Why? It's my freedom to see whoever I want. Why are you restricting my freedom?"
Qi Jinzhou snorted coldly. He looked down at Jiang Ning, who was lying on the bed unable to move, with a condescending attitude, "You can only listen to my arrangements now."
Jiang Ning clenched her fists in anger. She still had the strength to raise her hand to hit someone. When her fist hit Qi Jinzhou's leg, Qi Jinzhou was stunned for a moment.
She wanted to continue hitting him, but he grabbed her wrist and said, "You're sick, but you're still not honest?"
Jiang Ning's eyes were misty with anger. She really couldn't do anything right now. "You don't like me, why do you care about me? Did I ask you to care about me?"
Qi Jinzhou pretended not to hear anything, because ever since he didn't allow Zhou Qi to come to see her, she would scold him in different ways every day.
Qi Jinzhou sat down beside her bed and asked her, "What do you want to eat today?"
Jiang Ning was angry and didn't say anything.
She took out her cell phone and sent a message to Zhou Qi, asking him not to worry about her and not to feel guilty. She fell not because of him, but because of Li Qi.
Zhou Qi called with a video call at this time. Jiang Ning was about to pick up the call when Qi Jinzhou snatched the phone away.
When Qi Jinzhou saw the name displayed above, his eyes turned even colder, and he just asked again, "What do you want to eat?"
Jiang Ning secretly clutched the bed sheet: "Give me the phone."
"What to eat?"
"Give me the phone."
On the one hand, she felt that since Qi Jinzhou had said that he was not interested in her, he should not control her, let alone restrict her freedom, so why did he still control her here and there? On the other hand, Jiang Ning was actually gambling, she was gambling on what kind of status she had in Qi Jinzhou's heart.
She wanted to know what was going on in his mind.
Seeing that she really didn't want to say anything, Qi Jinzhou put his phone in his pocket and got up to leave.
After coming out, Qi Jinzhou's eyes showed fatigue. Zhang Qi followed him and advised him, "Mr. Qi, why don't you let us take care of Jiang Ning? You haven't had a real sleep since you found Jiang Ning. You've been too busy these past few days."
Upon closer inspection, Qi Jinzhou's eyes were filled with red bloodshot.
Qi Jinzhou gestured to Zhang Qi, "Go buy some porridge, and prepare the plane ticket back home tomorrow."
Zhang Qi was a little surprised. "Are you taking Jiang Ning back home tomorrow? She has multiple fractures, so she won't be able to walk, right?"
Qi Jinzhou looked at him as if he were an idiot, "Did I ever tell her to walk?"
Zhang Qi understood and went down to do it quickly.
More than ten minutes later, Qi Jinzhou appeared in Jiangning's ward carrying porridge.
She didn't want to pay attention to him and pretended to be asleep.
Qi Jinzhou knew she was not asleep.
He opened the box on his own. The steaming porridge looked very bland. "Ningning, as long as you behave, I will return your phone to you."
She slowly opened her eyes, "Brother-in-law. Do you like me?"
Qi Jinzhou helped her sit up and used a spoon to shake a spoonful of porridge. He didn't want to discuss this issue: "Now is the right time to eat, open your mouth."
Jiang Ning frowned slightly, "Answer my question."
Qi Jinzhou looked very calm, with no emotion in his eyes.
"Ningning, open your mouth."
What Jiang Ning hated most was his seemingly indifferent look. Every time she asked him this question, he pretended not to hear anything and deliberately avoided her.
Jiang Ning's anger was building up bit by bit. Why? Nothing had happened between her and Zhou Qi. He was just her friend, yet Qi Jinzhou could openly prevent Zhou Qi from coming to see her. He had clearly said he didn't like her, yet he was exercising the power that only a boyfriend could have - preventing other males from approaching.
But he never admitted it.
He was clearly doing this because he cared about her and loved her, and she didn't believe that he was doing this just out of his duty as a brother-in-law.
No, no, she trusted her instincts.
Jiang Ning was unwilling to give up and was worried. She wanted to hear a definite answer from his mouth. She wanted to open a gap in his bottomless heart.
She wanted to hear him say in person that he liked her.
Qi Jinzhou put the spoon to her lips. Jiang Ning frowned and knocked the spoon away with her hand. She moved towards Qi Jinzhou and kissed him deliberately.
Her lips pressed against his.
