Chapter 538: Chapter 538 - Gentleman Langlang (1)

Qiao Xiyan ended the call with Fu Chen. He pinched the cigarette between his fingers but didn’t light it up. He stared at Tang Jingci thoughtfully.

Fu Chen’s words were not unreasonable.

Although they were senior brother and junior sister, they were not biological siblings and had no blood relation with each other. If a single man and a single woman stayed in the same room, there would indeed be criticism.

vas sitting on the edge of the bed and twisting her hands uneasily, not daring to move at all.

No one spoke, and the atmosphere in the room was strange until Qiao Xiyan’s phone rang. Duan Linbai had already arrived, so he went to open the door.

Behind Duan Linbai stood a young lady in a white lab coat with a student badge around her neck.

“She has a PhD student at the Medical University, and she specializes in the eye.”

“Hello.” Qiao Xiyan turned to let them in.

Xu Jiamu also brought some medical tools. She tied up her hair and washed her hands before supporting Tang Jingci’s eyelids to examine her.

She moved quickly and immediately got to work. It was clean and refreshing.

“I’m shining a light on your eyes. Do you feel or see anything?”

“Something is shaking, but I don’t know what it is.”

“How do your eyes feel now? Are they sore, painful, or teary…” Xu Jiamu asked seriously.

“Now, I just feel that my eyelids are very heavy. They hurt earlier.”

“Have you been too tired recently and stayed up late?”

“Yes.” Tang Jingci had still been jet-lagged all this time, and she had been busy recently. Although her eyes were uncomfortable, she didn’t pay much attention to them.

“Do you remember what happened before your eyes couldn’t see?”

“A car came over, and the headlights were so bright that they hurt my eyes. When it passed by me, it almost hit me. I was so frightened that my head went blank. When I regained my senses, I…”

Qiao Xiyan was playing with a carving knife with his head lowered. When he heard about a car, his eyes narrowed. “Your eyes have been overly tired recently, and you’re overly stressed. You might be temporarily blind. You still have perception of light sources. Rest well. You might recover tomorrow.”

“Might recover tomorrow? We don’t need to go to the hospital for a checkup?” Duan Linbai didn’t expect Xu Jiamu’s answer to be so straightforward.

“Her eyes aren’t injured. If you’re worried, you can take her for a checkup. But it will basically be a waste of money.” Xu Jiamu shrugged and turned to look at Tang Jingci. “Have you been using eye drops recently?” “Yes…”

“What brand?”

Tang Jingci said a name. It was an internet celebrity brand.

“Actually, this eye drop makes you feel very comfortable for a short period of time. But it makes you dependent on it, and it’s also very taxing on your eyes. I’ll prescribe you something else…” Xu Jiamu took out her phone and searched for a few types of medicine for Qiao Xiyan to record.

Duan Linbai stood quietly at the side and watched Xu Jiamu diagnose her. It was said that serious men were the most handsome. This woman’s serious appearance…

Duan Linbai coughed twice!

Am I out of my mind?!

This woman hit me twice! She’s a true female Rakshasa! What’s there to see…

He looked elsewhere. But after a few seconds, his gaze drifted to Xu Jiamu again.

“… You mean there’s no big problem?” Qiao Xiyan asked.

I ca

“Yes. If you’re worried, you can go for a checkup tomorrow. The conclusion should be similar to mine. The eye drops I mentioned are all in pharmacies. There are many twenty-four-hour pharmacies in the capital. You can buy them tonight. Let her use them, and her eyes will feel better.”

“Thank you.” Tang Jingci thanked her. “Sorry for troubling you to make a trip so late.” “It’s alright. This is my phone number. If you feel uncomfortable at night, you can call me anytime.” Xu Jiamu told Qiao Xiyan the number. “Perhaps she will be uncomfortable not being able to see at first. As her boyfriend, remember to take care of her more.”

Qiao Xiyan was adding her number with his head lowered. When he heard the word ‘boyfriend’, he was slightly stunned.

“He’s my senior brother, not my boyfriend!” Tang Jingci hurriedly explained, her ears starting to burn again. Qiao Xiyan glanced at Tang Jingci. She explained very quickly. She looks like she’s afraid that others will misunderstand something. His eyes darkened, but he didn’t say anything

“I’m sorry…” Xu Jiamu coughed twice and observed the two of them.

The main reason was that they looked compatible. The man was cold, and the woman was cold. Since they were still together at night, it was easy for people to misunderstand.

They weren’t a couple, so it was probably inconvenient for a single man to take care of a single woman…

“Miss, what’s your last name?” Qiao Xiyan held his phone, his voice deeper than before. “Xu.”
