Chapter 1673 - Royal Hospital
"s figure appeared from the direction of the great school. She had just received news that Xi Jingchen"s cla.s.ses had been brought forward, so she went to his office to look for him. He was not here.
Furthermore, it was highly likely that he had already left the school. Duan Shumin felt a sense of loss in her heart, how could it be so unfortunate? She came, and he left?
Duan Shumin was a little unwilling to leave just like that, she thought, maybe Xi Jingchen was still in school?
Duan Shumin suddenly saw the direction of the library, she wanted to look for Duan Shu Xian, although cousins rarely communicated with each other, but now, she wished to have a good relations.h.i.+p with her cousin.
In the future, as long as Xi Jingchen taught here, she might come here often.
Duan Shumin walked to the entrance of the library and the Auntie Huang immediately recognized her, "Hey! Aren"t you Duan"s cousin? "
Duan Shumin smiled and nodded, "Yes, may I ask if Shu Xian is here?"
"Oh!" Unfortunately, Little Duan"s body isn"t feeling well today. She"s resting at home. "
"Is that so?" Duan Shumin was startled, even Shu Xian was not in the school!
Duan Shumin turned and left. She could only go back now. In front of the Royal Hospital"s gate, a line of four black car stopped. From the second car in the middle, Duan Shu Xian sat in the car, she could only lean on Xi Jingchen.
Red. It was as if there was a layer of top quality rouge smeared across it. His eyes, however, were bloodshot and a bit scarlet. He lost his usual liveliness and agility, and looked at it with a heart aching expression.
"Have we arrived? I"ll go myself. " Although Duan Shu Xian was weak, her mind was still clear. She did not want Xi Jingchen to carry her inside.
Xi Jingchen got off the car first and extended his hand out to protect the carriage frame to prevent her from hitting her head when she got off.
Duan Shu Xian stepped out of the car holding the door of the car. She looked at this extraordinary hospital and was stunned. She had never seen such a domineering hospital before!
"Are you sure you can go?" Xi Jingchen"s low voice came out.
"I can walk!" Duan Shu Xian nodded. She had just taken a step when she felt as if she was stepping on clouds. It was so soft that it didn"t touch the ground.
Xi Jingchen"s pupils contracted. Without saying a word, he half bent down, one hand holding her back, and the other hand pa.s.sing under her knees to once again hold her horizontally.
"Teacher Xi... "Don"t do that." Duan Shu Xian exclaimed in a low voice, clearly resisting the offer.
"Don"t move." Xi Jingchen coaxed in a low voice as he walked towards the entrance of the hospital with extremely steady steps.
A nurse welcomed him immediately, and his bodyguards followed behind him. Duan Shu Xian, who resisted, could only hug his neck tightly, her small face buried in his shoulder sockets, revealing only the messy back of her head with a ponytail. Xi Jingchen carried her into the doctor"s office. When the doctor saw that he was the one leading the patient, she immediately didn"t dare to act sloppy. Duan Shu Xian was placed on a bed, the doctor gave her a temperature of 2 degrees and then gave her a fever of 2 degrees.
First, he had to do some physical cooling, and he was very careful when he opened the potion.
Xi Jingchen stood outside the door and waited. Not long later, he saw Duan Shu Xian, who had changed into a light blue hospital gown, pus.h.i.+ng him out with a few drops on her hand.
"Young Master Xi, I have already prescribed the medicine. Once the medicine is done, the fever will subside. According to the follow-up inspection, I hope she can stay in the lower court." The doctor said to Xi Jingchen.
"Hm!" Let her stay. " Xi Jingchen nodded.
Duan Shu Xian was sent to a luxurious ward. Why was it luxurious? It was because in this room, there was the treatment of a five star hotel. It didn"t seem like a ward at all.
The back of Duan Shu Xian"s hand was pierced with needles. Her long hair was in disarray and her chest looked haggard. There was a trace of panic in her eyes.
Xi Jingchen sat in front of her bed and looked at her current appearance. He really didn"t know how she managed to torture him to such a state in just one night.
Could this have something to do with him? Xi Jingchen squinted, and asked gently: "Did you not sleep well last night?"
Duan Shu Xian wanted to tell the truth, but she didn"t want to. She shook her head and said, "I"ve slept well."
"Your eyes can"t fool people." Xi Jingchen exposed her and then, his voice became a bit hoa.r.s.e, "Is it because you know my ident.i.ty? Did I scare you? "
Bitterness flashed through Duan Shu Xian"s heart. She had long guessed his ident.i.ty.
"Or is it because you know about my meeting with your cousin? Did you let your imagination run wild? " Xi Jingchen"s gaze locked onto her tightly, not letting go of every single expression on her face.
Duan Shu Xian blinked twice in a hurry, she pursed her lips and didn"t say anything.
"Your cousin and I just had a meal, that"s all." Xi Jingchen explained in a low voice.
Duan Shu Xian"s heart skipped a beat. Just for a meal? Or did he not mention that it was a blind date dinner?
Right at this moment, Duan Shu Xian"s phone rang in her pocket. It was in her coat pocket, in the quiet ward. She was shocked, thinking that her phone was not with her!
Xi Jingchen immediately took out the phone for her. When he looked at the name on the notification, he frowned.
Cousin.
Was it Shu Duan Min"s phone number?
When Duan Shu Xian saw the name, she was so scared that her breathing quickened and her heart thumped like a drum. She looked at the man beside her with a pleading expression and said, "Can you let me pick up a phone?"
"Just answer it in front of me!" Xi Jingchen did not want to leave.
"Please! Will you go out for a minute? " Duan Shu Xian looked at him pleadingly.
Xi Jingchen could only agree. After giving her a deep look, he got up and walked towards the door.
After seeing him close the door and leave, Duan Shu Xian stretched out her hand to pick it up, her tone returning to its usual state.
"Hey!" "Young mistress."
"Shu Xian, I heard you got sick. Is it serious?" Duan Shumin"s voice came from the other end.
"Eh? How do you know? " Duan Shu Xian"s face was filled with guilt and a trace of nervousness and fear.
"Today, I went to your school. Originally, I was going to look for Young Master Xi, but he seemed to have finished his lessons early and left. I then went to the library to look for you. Duan Shumin explained.
Duan Shu Xian"s head was buzzing. She swallowed her saliva and said, "Sis, I"m fine, don"t worry."
"Is Aunt taking care of you?"
Duan Shu Xian pretended to be fine and said, "I"m not sick, I just want to rest at home. Sis, don"t worry about me."
"Good!" Then rest well! Oh yeah, does Teacher Xi have lessons on Thursday? "
"Yes!" I think so! " Duan Shu Xian pretended that she wasn"t sure.
"Good!" Then I"ll come back to the school on Thursday and we"ll talk later. "
"En!" "Yes!" Duan Shu Xian answered, then heard Duan Shumin hang up the phone. She couldn"t help but hold onto her phone, and let out a heavy sigh.
At this moment, guilt filled her face. The man her cousin wanted to see the most was by her side. How could she not feel guilty?
As if knowing that she had ended the call, the door opened, and Xi Jingchen walked in once again. His slender body in this place, gave off a n.o.ble aura of the w.a.n.g family.
Duan Shu Xian no longer dared to treat him as a normal teacher. He was the young master of the Pavilion Lord Manor and would be her future respected master.
Xi Jingchen sat down again. He did not ask her about the phone call, but rather carefully checked her wound to see if there was any edema.
Duan Shu Xian"s hand gently shrank, as if she was avoiding his touch.
Xi Jingchen looked up, his gaze deep to the point that it was hard to predict. He suddenly sighed, "Are you blaming me for not telling you about my ident.i.ty?"
Duan Shu Xian was stunned. She blinked and shook her head. "I didn"t!"
"Then what are you arguing with me about?" Xi Jingchen asked again.
"I didn"t!" Duan Shu Xian continued to shake her head.
"Then you deliberately avoided me! Because of your cousin? " Xi Jingchen asked.
This was the right reason to ask, but Duan Shu Xian pursed her lips, not wanting to admit it. After a few seconds of silence, she raised her head to look at him and asked seriously, "Can you tell me if you and my cousin were dating?"
Xi Jingchen couldn"t help but want to laugh, he seriously asked her, "In your eyes, is eating a meal considered a blind date?"
Duan Shu Xian was startled. But Aunt meant for him that his mother asked his cousin to go over and have a date with him. That meant that they would definitely be going towards the meeting point at the dinner table.
Besides, his cousin liked him. She fell in love with him two years ago, and she had to marry him. Seeing that she had stopped talking again, with a face full of worry, Xi Jingchen couldn"t help but narrow his eyes and ask, "What are you thinking about? Can you tell me? " Duan Shu Xian bit her lips and lightly shook her head. "Nothing."
