Chapter 207 - Zhang Fei’s Colleague (1/2)

By the time Xu Lan went in, Bai Wu was awake. His lips curled in a smile, but when he saw the throng of people behind Xu Lan, the smile was immediately suppressed.

“Elder, how are you?”

“Bai Wu…”

“Xu Lan said that there were too many of us, so we’d have to stay at the entrance of the operation theatre. If Fang Lingzi didn’t manage to find him, we wouldn’t have known that you were here.”

With eyes half-open Bai Wu listened indifferently and could not help but curse silently to himself, ‘It’d be better if you weren’t able to find me!’

“He’s just finished the operation, and the doctor said he needs to rest more.” Xu Lan took a seat on the chair beside the bed and folded one leg over the other; he then looked at the group of people in front of him. Fortunately for him, he sold his inheritance at a good price and was able to afford the intensive care ward. If it were the regular ward next door, he would have received numerous complaints from the other patients.

Having heard Xu Lan’s remark and seen Bai Wu’s look of discontent, everyone dropped the subject. They quietly lined themselves in two rows and squatted on the ground in order to minimize their presence as best as they could.

“Why are you all squatting there for?” There were a few things that Bai Wu wanted to talk about with Xu Lan, but after looking around in speechlessness, he asked ineffably.

“We don’t have anywhere else to go. The only person we know here are Elder and Xu Lan.” Fang Lingzi pouted and remarked unhappily.

“…Papa, Xu, Xu Lan, here…my chest is a bit painful.” Out of habit, Bai Wu called out, but when Xu Lan glared at him, he corrected himself and rubbed his hands guiltily.

Those who squatted on the ground were all in shock. When Bai Wu was in front of them, he always took charge of things. Even if Xu Lan was there, he would intentionally let Bai Wu step forward to manage the general situation. After hearing Bai Wu’s coquettish voice, they looked at him as though they saw a ghost. They looked at Xu Lan again and saw his chivalrous look: it was something they found to be even more terrifying than a naked Xiao Ya.

“Mm.” Xu Lan stood up, walked over to the bed, and pressed the call bell. “I’ll find a couple of cheap hotels for them, then I’ll come back. What do you want to eat?”
