Zhao Ningchu ignored the pillow stuck on the back of her hand, pulled it out, and prepared to get out of bed, but as soon as her feet landed on the ground, before she could exert any force, she felt a sharp pain in her left foot.
Hiss~
Zhao Ningchu gasped in pain and fell back onto the bed.
Gu Ran came in and saw Zhao Ningchu moving the hospital bed slowly. She quickly stepped forward and supported him: "Ah Chu, you are still infusion, why are you getting out of bed!"
"Ji Xiuran, I want to find Ji Xiuran!"
Gu Ran was stunned: "You...you know."
Zhao Ningchu paused and turned to look at Gu Ran.
They had been best friends for more than ten years, and she couldn't believe that Gu Ran would lie to her.
'Did you always know!'
Gu Ran felt a little guilty and did not dare to look at Zhao Ningchu, so she dropped the topic and said, "I want to help you get on the bed, but your foot is injured and you can't walk yet!"
The next second, Zhao Ningchu pushed her away and said word by word with red eyes: "Are you lying to me? You knew Ji Xiuran was still alive from the beginning, right?"
"Achu, I..."
Zhao Ningchu interrupted her: "If you treat me as a friend, let me go see Ji Xiuran!"
"You're not feeling well yet, okay?"
Zhao Ningchu ignored her, endured the severe pain in her feet, and moved towards the door step by step.
Seeing this, Gu Ran quickly stepped forward to help her: "I'll take you there. He's in this hospital, but no matter what you see or hear, don't get excited, okay?"
"Um!"
Gu Ran helped Zhao Ningchu to Ji Xiuran's ward. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a group of medical staff surrounding the bed. Zhao Ningchu stood at the door and could not see Ji Xiuran at all.
When Su Yang saw Zhao Ningchu, he said: "Madam..."
Zhao Ningchu opened his mouth: "How is he?"
"Mr. Ji just woke up, is the doctor going to give him medicine?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Ningchu heard the doctor exclaim: "Mr. Ji, what are you going to do?"
"It's hard to apply medicine while wearing clothes."
Zhao Ningchu signaled to Gu Ran and asked her to help her walk inside.
When the medical staff saw Zhao Ningchu approaching, they all made way for him.
Zhao Ningchu saw the man sitting on the hospital bed.
The two looked at each other, and Ji Xiuran avoided Zhao Ningchu's sight in a panic.
Zhao Ningchu just looked at Ji Xiuran intently.
He is still alive!
When we were on the mountain before, I didn't pay attention to Ji Xiuran. Now when I looked at him, I realized that Ji Xiuran had lost so much weight.
Before Zhao Ningchu could speak, Ji Xiuran said in a deep voice: "Get out~"
The people present looked at each other, not knowing whether to leave or stay for a moment.
Ji Xiuran saw that Zhao Ningchu was unmoved and spoke again: "Su Yang, send the person out."
Su Yang said with some embarrassment: "Madam, why don't you go out first!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Ran glared at Su Yang, and Su Yang immediately didn't dare to say anything.
Zhao Ningchu looked at the doctor aside: "Is the medicine on?"
"Just getting ready to apply the medicine!"
"Then let's get started!"
The doctor looked at Ji Xiuran: "Mr. Ji, please take off your hospital gown first, otherwise it will be inconvenient!"
Ji Xiuran remained unmoved. The ward became quiet for a while, and no one dared to say a word.
Zhao Ningchu looked at him with lowered eyes and said after a while: "Should I help you take it off or should you take it off yourself?"
When Ji Xiuran heard this, he looked at Zhao Ningchu in disbelief, opened his mouth, and finally said nothing.
When Zhao Ningchu saw this, she stood up and pulled Ji Xiuran's hospital gown. Ji Xiuran held her hand. When Zhao Ningchu lowered his eyes and looked at the big hand holding her, his whole body froze, and his heart throbbed.
In her impression, Ji Xiuran's hands were beautiful, white and well-jointed, but now the originally fair skin had become red, swollen, and blackened, and the original appearance of the skin was no longer clear.
Perhaps sensing Zhao Ningchu's gaze, Ji Xiuran froze and quickly retracted his hand.
"Get out!"
Zhao Ningchu's nose felt a little sore: "After all this, you still want to drive me away?"
Ji Xiuran lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Zhao Ningchu reached out to pull open Ji Xiuran's hospital gown: "Let the doctor give you medicine, I'll be right here and I won't go anywhere!"
"Get out!"
"I don't!"
The two of them were in a stalemate, neither of them bowing their heads first.
The doctor on the side was also frightened by the tense atmosphere and did not dare to make a sound.
"Ji Xiuran, are you sure you want to always be like this? Always deciding things for others, regardless of their moods?"
Ji Xiuran lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Zhao Ningchu took a deep breath and calmed down his emotions, then reached out and pulled Ji Xiuran's hospital gown away.
Zhao Ningchu thought she was strong enough, but when her eyes touched Dao Ji Xiuran's back, she froze instantly.
Ji Xiuran had already expected this day, and he didn't want to scare her, but now...
Will she be scared or feel horrified, even disgusted?
That’s right, even if you look at it, you will find it scary, let alone others?
But even so, Ji Xiuran's heart throbbed whenever he thought that Zhao Ningchu would make him sick.
Zhao Ningchu covered her mouth and stared at Ji Xiuran's back for a long time, tears rolling out of her eyes uncontrollably.
She really didn't expect Ji Xiuran's injury to be so serious.
Almost the entire back was covered in burns, some places were scorched, and some places still had red and swollen blood blisters. The blood blisters on the lower back were broken on one side, and together with the skin that had not grown back, it looked a bit scary.
Was he injured when he was pushed by himself on the mountain before?
This bastard!
Don’t tell yourself when you are hurt.
After applying the medicine, Ji Xiuran was wrapped in gauze again, like a mummy.
Zhao Ningchu sat beside Ji Xiuran's bed and said nothing, just looking at him.
Su Yang on the side saw this and called the others out very wisely. But when he arrived at Gu Ran's place, Gu Ran said: "A Chu is still infusion. She came here before she finished injecting the medicine."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yang dragged Gu Ran out of the ward.
For a moment, there were only two people left in the ward.
No one wanted to speak.
After a while, Zhao Ningchu said: "Why?"
"I figured you'd be fine without me, so..."
"Ji Xiuran, are you so selfish in making decisions for me?" After Zhao Ningchu finished speaking, big tears rolled out of her eyes. She cried and complained: "Who do you think you are to me? Can you?"
Make the decision for me, you don’t care whether I live or die!”
When Ji Xiuran heard these words, although he knew that Zhao Ningchu was speaking out of anger, his heart still throbbed uncontrollably.
Zhao Ningchu continued: "I believed you so much that I ran to drive, but before I could find you, it exploded. In front of my eyes, I watched you being swallowed up by the fire.
Have you ever thought about how much I would hate you if you lied to me?"
Ji Xiuran reached out tremblingly to hug Zhao Ningchu, but his hand froze in mid-air and never fell.
Zhao Ningchu stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face. Looking at Ji Xiuran, who was stunned like a log, she curled her lips and said, "You made me cry, shouldn't you hold me and comfort me?"
"Achu, you..."
'Forget it if you don't want to, who cares about you!'
After saying that, he stood up to leave.
When Ji Xiuran saw this, he quickly reached out to grab Zhao Ningchu's wrist, and the next second, he gently brought her into his arms.
Zhao Ningchu didn't dare to put her weight on Ji Xiuran, because she knew she was still injured.
"Ji Xiuran..."
"Um!"
"During this time, have you been following me secretly?"
"Um!"
"Since when did you start following me?"
"Two months ago, I just woke up!"
Ji Xiuran said lightly.
"So you were the one who sent me to the hospital that day?"
"Um!"
"You were the one who picked up my bag and took it to the police station?"
"yes!"
"You stole my photos, you were the one who peeked at me in the park!"
Ji Xiuran said nothing, and Zhao Ningchu continued to ask: "Is that Chen Jun also you? Are they all you?" As he spoke, Zhao Ningchu sat up straight and looked at her straightly.
Ji Xiuran raised his eyes, and the moment they looked at each other, he avoided Zhao Ningchu's sight.
Zhao Ningchu reached out and held his cheek: "Don't hide, look at me and say, explain your crimes to me one by one, otherwise I will not forgive you."
"Feel sorry!"
An apology meant that Ji Xiuran admitted everything!
"Asshole, if you don't want me, why are you following me and messing with my mentality? Ji Xiuran, you are a big pervert..."
"I don't want you, I, I just think..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ningchu answered: "You think I can live a good life without you, don't you?"
Ji Xiuran lowered his eyes.
Zhao Ningchu was furious when she saw him like this.
"Since you feel this way, why do you still show up? If you don't show up, I will completely forget you, then meet a new man, and then..."
"Stop talking!"
Ji Xiuran reached out to cover his face, trembling all over.
Looking at his fragile look, Zhao Ningchu couldn't bear it, but when she thought of Ji Xiuran doing this to her, she wanted to make him angry.
"You're scared now. Isn't this what you planned?"
"No!"
"Shit, I don't believe it! Ji Xiuran, next time you dare to do something like this, I will never forgive you.
Do you know how uncomfortable I felt when everyone told me that you were dead?
I hate myself, why did I have to be so timid?"
As he talked, Zhao Ningchu cried again.
Ji Xiuran looked flustered and reached out to hold her cheek gently, helping her wipe away the tears on her cheeks.
"I'm sorry, Ah Chu, I'm sorry..."
After saying that, he leaned forward and blocked Zhao Ningchu's red lips.
Zhao Ningchu wanted to push her away, but couldn't bear to do so. She just stiffened her body and let him kiss her.
Only when he felt Ji Xiuran's cold, slightly moist lips did Zhao Ningchu really know.
This is Ji Xiuran!
Ji Xiuran kissed her very gently and carefully.
Zhao Ningchu put her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss.
