Li Juefeng looked at her with a strange depth in his eyes, but ultimately said nothing.
After casually eating a bit of French cuisine, the two prepared to head home.
Before they reached the car, Gu Xiaoai suddenly felt a wave of nausea, leaning against the wall and vomiting violently. The spicy food she had eaten earlier now came up, like burning knives tormenting her throat…
The pain brought tears to her eyes.
…
“And you said that eating recklessly when I’m sick is bad for my health. I ate a lot of spicy food this time, and nothing happened.”
…
So… she hadn’t changed.
Whenever she got sick, she liked to eat recklessly… and whenever she ate recklessly, she would feel unbearably uncomfortable.
“What happened?!” Li Juefeng was momentarily stunned seeing her like this.
Occasionally, passersby glanced over and pointed…
“I… ugh-”
Gu Xiaoai painfully vomited the food from her stomach, the abdominal pain twisting her insides, making her whole body uncomfortable.
“Gu Xiaoai!”
Li Juefeng frowned, holding her waist with one hand and patting her back with the other.
“Gu Xiaoai! If you weren’t feeling well, why didn’t you say so earlier?!”
Amid Li Juefeng’s shouts, Gu Xiaoai weakly collapsed into his arms, her fingers feebly clutching his clothes, painfully saying, “Take me to the hospital.”
Gu Xiaoai’s slender body fell into his embrace, her previously clean face now covered in sweat from the discomfort of vomiting, her forehead hair sticking wetly…
This woman looked so fragile, as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind…
His heart, inadvertently, was stirred again by her.
He couldn’t deny it; her vulnerability made him heartache.
Li Juefeng picked her up horizontally and walked towards the car.
…
The private hospital was clean and tidy, with the smell of disinfectant permeating even the corridors.
In the single room, Gu Xiaoai lay on the large hospital bed, feeling somewhat guilty as she watched a man, so agitated he was practically jumping, pacing back and forth in front of her bed…
Clearly, this man hadn’t rushed over to hit her only because she was connected to an IV bag again.
In the short week or so of being confined by Li Juefeng, she had developed a peculiar affinity with IVs… an affinity that was somewhat bizarre.
