Chapter 171: My Injuries Have Already Healed

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shen Qingyue was still in the midst of her dreams, although her sleep was not very deep. In the vague haze, she heard the voice of Qin Zhen, and immediately furrowed her brow. Hearing this voice so early in the morning was truly ominous. Why couldn’t her dreams be undisturbed? Couldn’t she just sleep peacefully for a while?

Zhang Jianci always defended his Brother Ming, and upon hearing Qin Zhen’s sarcastic tone, a hint of provocation appeared on his face. He spoke with a sneer, “Oh, President Qin, why such a sour tone? What’s wrong? Was Wei Jiu’er not satisfying enough for you last night, so you’re venting your frustration here?”

With that, Zhang Jianci suddenly slapped his own head, his smile bright but extremely irritating. “How could I forget that President Qin is still in a wheelchair? Perhaps there’s something he wants to do, but he’s physically incapable? Depending on a young girl for such matters might damage President Qin’s prestige, don’t you think?”

Qin Zhen, always conscious of his status and accustomed to a high position, rarely faced such insolence. This infuriated him, and his face immediately darkened. “You’d better watch your mouth!” he warned.

However, Zhang Jianci was not afraid of him. “What? What are you going to do?” he taunted, baring his teeth. “Thinking of biting someone, huh?”

In the hospital room, Chi Ming’s voice came cold and indifferent, “Enough, both of you, stop talking.”

Zhang Jianci knew Chi Ming was talking to him. He fell silent, but his eyes still carried a mocking glint, infuriating to the point of driving someone to madness.

Chi Ming told Zhang Jianci to shut up, but Qin Zhen did not appreciate the intervention. In his view, if Chi Ming had truly wanted to stop the conversation, he would not have let Zhang Jianci speak in the first place. He was just pretending to be the good guy, waiting until Zhang Jianci had mocked enough. Truly cunning and shameless.

After this exchange, Shen Qingyue, who had been half-asleep, finally woke up completely.

Chi Ming turned his head slightly. “Sorry for waking you,” he said.

Shen Qingyue yawned, “It’s fine, not your fault.” With that, she glanced at Qin Zhen at the door, the meaning behind that look could not be clearer. Obviously, she thought it was because of Qin Zhen. She had thought it was a dream, but annoyingly, he was indeed here, so early in the morning, bringing such bad luck.

She casually tidied her slightly messy hair, stood up, leaning against the bedside table, “President Qin, coming over so early in the morning, are you here to argue? What’s the matter, want to exercise your lung capacity through arguing?”

In fact, Qin Zhen came over just to confirm if Shen Qingyue was here. But, of course, he couldn’t say that. He had already settled things with Wei Jiu’er, and he did not want Shen Qingyue to think he was still thinking about her. Where would he put his face if that happened? Although… he truly missed her.

He hid his thoughts and snorted, “Do you think I have so much free time like you?”

Shen Qingyue fixed her clothes, her expression sour, “President Qin, if you don’t have free time, why are you here? Nobody here will welcome you!” Qin Zhen choked, speechless.

Shen Qingyue did not want to be entangled with him, glanced at the time, and said to Chi Ming, “I’m going to work. If you want something to eat, text me in the evening. If you don’t know, I’ll pick something for you.”

At her words, a soft smile spread across Chi Ming’s initially cold face, “Sure, buy whatever you like. I like everything.”

Shen Qingyue raised an eyebrow, said nothing more, picked up her bag, and quickly left. As she passed Qin Zhen, she did not even spare him a glance. She found him annoying with just one look.

Qin Zhen stared at her back, his gaze fixed until she disappeared, never retracting his sight.

At this moment, a shadow fell beside him.

“President Qin, you came here early in the morning just to confirm if Qingyue was here, right?” Chi Ming’s voice came from above him, chilly and detached.

Qin Zhen looked up and saw Chi Ming standing next to him, his face unusually pale.

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Qin Zhen denied his question, then scrutinized Chi Ming, “What’s wrong with you?”

Chi Ming stated plainly, “I injured my back.”

“Huh, looking at you, you don’t seem like a patient.” Qin Zhen narrowed his eyes, “Are you faking your illness to make Shen Qingyue come and take care of you? Next time you lie, make your complexion paler. Right now, you look healthy, trying to deceive foolish women.”

“I didn’t fake being injured. It’s just that I’ve almost recovered. I just extended my hospital stay a bit,” his injury this time wasn’t deep, and with the private medical team from his family changing his bandages every day, he recovered quickly. He could have been discharged yesterday. But he did not want to miss this rare opportunity to have close contact with Shen Qingyue. He did noot want to temporarily cut it off, or he would have to find another chance later..
