Chapter 210

Her eyes were red-rimmed and she turned to look in the mirror.

Then, Su Qiuge looked at her in the mirror.

Identical faces.

At that moment, her heart sped up painfully.

As if it were herself who experienced all this, some dusty memories flooded up like a tide, so suppressed that they were suffocating.

Just then, she heard someone say—

“When will the fever subside? She has been in bed for a long time.”

“The patient was frightened. In addition, she was a little tired recently and her body temperature was high. She may need to rest a lot.”

Her eyelids were heavy, and she was tired and wanted to sleep for a while, but she didn’t want to stay in those painful memories.

She was like a drowning person trying to grab the last straw.

“Su Qiuge, if you don’t wake up, I will kiss you.”

That person’s voice became the duckweed when she was drowning in the water and it was hard to breathe, and it woke her up from that terrible suffocation.

She opened her eyes.

The light from the top of the room shone through, and the sky outside had already darkened.

Some dazzling light fell in her eyes, which made her blink a little, and then, she saw the person sitting beside the bed.

The young man propped his lower jaw on his fist, his long eyelashes drooped down, covering the faint dark blue at the corners of his eyes, as if he hadn’t had enough rest.

She got up slowly and the boy beside her slowly opened her eyes.

His eyes were good-looking, and when he looked at her like this, they opened up, like butterflies breaking out of their cocoons.

When he saw her wake up, he reached out and touched her forehead. He didn’t say anything about what happened before. He just said, “The fever hasn’t subsided, I’ll give you a cup of medicine.”

Su Qiuge didn’t speak, just reached out to pull his sleeve.

She just stretched out her hand and only then did she realize that she was still connected to an IV, and she let out a low pained cry.

Xie Xinglin took her hand and asked her, “What do you want to get?”

Who knew that this girl didn’t know that she had a high fever and that her brain was not normal. She seemed a little dazed, and she sat up and stared at him all the time.

Without blinking.

Her hair was hanging down by her side, and her whole person looked gentle and soft, and her beautiful and clear almond eyes were full of him. Because of her illness, her complexion was pale, and her ears had an abnormal blush.

That kind of fragile feeling that was lovable and pitiful.

Seeing her like this, he felt a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart. Xie Xinglin lowered his eyes, covered the dark look in his eyes, and said as gently as possible, “Why do you keep staring at me?”

The girl on the hospital bed looked at him quietly, then slowly shook her head, looking like she was very dependent on him.

Then she said in a hoarse voice, “I missed you.”

Although this was the first sentence she spoke when she woke up, she really thought of those four words.

But she didn’t want her first confession to be in the hospital.

If she could, she would like to be well prepared and then confess to him.

She also wanted to prepare a big surprise for the boy she liked.

Xie Xinglin’s eyelashes trembled slightly. Her simple four words seemed to have reversed a certain mechanism, and the lines of his body collapsed and stiff, and he even had an urge to take her into his arms.

After a long while, he suppressed this urge and turned around to get an apple.

It was very dark outside. Su Qiuge looked up at the clock in the hospital and found that it was already three in the morning.

It was so late, why hadn’t he gone back yet?

Although emotionally she didn’t want him to go, her logid told her otherwise.

After all, he was not made of steel and needs rest.

She looked up at him and said softly, “You don’t have to stay with me here, just go back to sleep.”

Xie Xinglin heard the words, raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes fell on the needle in her hand, and said lightly, “When you pull out the needle yourself, who will you cry to for the bleeding? Huh?”

Su Qiuge lowered her eyes. Hearing his words soured her nose.

Even though she had gone through so many things before, she didn’t feel that it was nothing. She had experienced more abuse when she was a child, and she would not feel wronged or sad.

But now, because of his words, her eyes were a little red, and she was even moved to the point of tears.

She lowered her eyes, a little embarrassed, to hide her tears.

At this time, her mind was dizzy, and her body was not very comfortable. After thinking about it, she could only resist weakly, “I’m not a child, how could I drop the needle.”

Xie Xinglin looked at her aggrieved appearance, and because she just woke up, her voice was a little hoarse and she couldn’t speak clearly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He lowered his eyes and stared at her for a while, chuckled softly, and said in a low voice, “How aren’t you a child? Huh?”

Immediately afterwards, Xie Xinglin took out a fruit knife and cut an apple for her.

She sat on the bed and kept watching him obediently, the tip of the knife turning between his slender knuckles, bringing up circles of apple peels.

The fragrant fruity fragrance drifted into the room as she looked at him quietly and didn’t speak. She looked very different from usual, so Xie Xinglin raised his brows slightly.

He cut a slice of apple, handed it to her, and brought it to her mouth.

She glanced at him and finally opened her mouth and ate it obediently.

This appearance made Xie Xinglin’s heart tighten. When she bit the apple, her lips brushed his fingertips. When he retracted his hand, he twisted his fingertips slightly, and then he put the apple on the plate beside him. Then, he poured warm water from the kettle and mixed the medicine, testing the temperature while bringing the medicine to her.
