Chapter 42 - Its all over, I saved you (1/2)

Xin Qing woke up hungry in the midnight. She was startled when she opened her eyes.

”You're awake?” Ying Qingcang leaned on the headboard and looked at her.

Xin Qing rubbed her eyes and looked at Ying Qingcang for a while. Just as Ying Qingcang thought that the fever had fried her brain and was about to call the doctor, Xin Qing suddenly covered herself with the blanket and laid back down.

”How annoying that I even dreamed of him.”

...

Ying Qingcang's face darkened, he touched her forehead: ”Aren't you hungry?”

”Hungry!” Xin Qing said casually, then abruptly sat up, ”You... You... You...”

”This is my room.” Ying Qingcang reminded her.

”I... I... I...” Xin Qing stammered.

”Have you forgotten what happened last night?”

Xin Qing was stunned for a moment, then grabbed Ying Qingcang's arm with a pale face: ”He gave me some strange medicine, he wanted to rape me, and he wanted to record it...”

Tears fell drop by drop onto Ying Qingcang's hands, burning holes in his heart. Ying Qingcang hugged Xin Qing tightly. ”It's all over now. He didn't do anything. I saved you.”

”Really?” Xin Qing raised her head in his embrace.

Ying Qingcang hesitated for a moment, it seemed that she had forgotten what happened between them later last night. Should I tell her?

”It's true!” I should wait until she recovers...

”That's great...” Hearing his words, Xin Qing grinned and then fell onto the bed immediately.

”Xin Qing? Xin Qing!”

Ying Qingcang was so scared that he did not even look for Doctor Li and directly drove Xin Qing to the hospital. On the way, he found that she had started to have a fever again and kept unconscious all the way to the hospital.

After drawing and testing blood, and a series of careful examination, the doctor told him that the reason for the fever was because Xin Qing's uterus had been infected severely. The doctor chided him for not taking care of hygiene in couple’s sex life, especially during her period.

Ying Qingcang was originally secretly happy with the doctor’s words of ”couple’s sex life”, but soon felt sorry for Xin Qing. He remembered that Xin Qing had a situation at the last night during the first seven days, but he had not even considered her feelings.

Ever since Xin Qing met him, she seemed to be sick a lot. Ying Qingcang scolded himself in his heart as he sat on the side of the bed and accompanied her until the sun rose. When it was four or five in the morning, Xin Qing opened her eyes once again.

”Am I in the hospital?” This time, she was pretty calm when she saw Ying Qingcang and only glanced at him indifferently.

Ying Qingcang nodded his head quickly and brought her a cup of water. Xin Qing struggled to sit up, but Ying Qingcang supported her: ”Be careful, there's still a needle in your hand!”

”Thank you.” Xin Qing took a big gulp of the water. She had slept for too long, her throat was unbearably hoarse.

Ying Qingcang scooped a bowl of porridge that Auntie Tian had cooked from the thermal container. ”You haven't eaten anything today, eat some porridge first. I'll ask them to send some food over later on. What do you want to eat?”

”No need, porridge is good enough.” Xin Qing extended her hand to receive the bowl. Ying Qingcang frowned: ”Let me feed you. You've had a fever for quite a long time, how could you have the strength to hold the bowl?”

Xin Qing looked at him in shock, then shook her head. ”I'll eat by myself.”

Ying Qingcang did not say anything, he just pulled a table in front of her and placed the bowl on the table.

Then there was a silence: Xin Qing ate the porridge silently and Ying Qingcang watched her silently.

”What the doctor said about my fever?” Xin Qing couldn't stand this kind of atmosphere and found a topic to talk about.

Ying Qingcang moved his body and repeated the doctor's words, and then added: ”I'm sorry, I did not know that it would have such a huge impact.”

”Wouldn't you do it if you knew the consequences?” Xin Qing turned her head and did not look at him. Ying Qingcang wanted to explain, but was unable to find a word.

After eating two bowls of porridge, Xin Qing leaned against the bedside as she looked at the slightly uncomfortable Ying Qingcang.

”Yesterday... Thank you.” She thought about it and decided to thank him.

Ying Qingcang looked at Xin Qing and felt that she was getting further and further away from him. The girl who hugged him and cried last night had now wrapped her heart and kept him out of sight.

”Don't worry, Young Master Shen has already caught him. When you're better, I'll help you with whatever you want to vent your anger on. I don't mind crippling him.”
