Chapter 36 - I’m Dying (2/2)

”Yue Xiu,” Li Qin Yao spoke weakly. Her arms wrapped around her stomach. ”My stomach hurts so much!”

…

In the end, Han Yue Xiu took Li Qin Yao to a hospital. It was then that they found out that Li Qin Yao was suffering from diarrhea from overeating spicy food last night.

The elderly doctor gave the two girls a scolding for their carelessness. Li Qin Yao only felt slightly better after an injection. Because her condition was quite bad, the doctor suggested for Li Qin Yao to be hospitalized.

Of course, Han Yue Xiu agreed. Even if Li Qin Yao did not want to spend the night in the hospital, she was forced to it.

After all, Han Yue Xiu still had to show up at work, and she would be worried as there was no one beside Li Qin Yao.

Just as Han Yue Xiu finished with the admission procedure, her phone started to ring. Han Yue Xiu stared at the screen for five seconds before she slid her fingers on the screen.

”Han Yue Xiu, you finally know how to pick up your phone!” Her boss's voice blasted from the speaker.

”Boss Song,” Han Yue Xiu spoke softly.

”Where are you? Why aren't you at work?”

”I'm at the hospital. I will-” her words left unfinished as her boss's voice could be heard on the other line.

”Hospital?” his voice toned down a bit. ”Why are you at the hospital? Han Yue Xiu, are you unwell?”

Han Yue Xiu massaged the space between her eyebrow and sighed. ”I'm fine. It's my friend who. I'll come to work once I finished with the procedure.”

Once Han Yue Xiu hung up her phone, Li Qin Yao pulled at her friend's sleeve.

”Yue Xiu, you should go to work,” Li Qin Yao said. ”I'll be fine here. The nurses can look after me.”

Han Yue Xiu stared at her friend for a few seconds longer before she nodded. ”Okay. Then, I'll come back after work and bring along some dinner. Do you want anything? Forget it. The doctor warned you to look after your diet. I'll bring some porridge in the evening.”

”Good,” Li Qin Yao nodded. After some persuasion, Han Yue Xiu finally left, while Li Qin Yao sat at the chair, waiting for the nurse to bring her to the ward.

As she was waiting, someone sat beside her. Li Qin Yao looked up, and her gaze met with an old man. Coincidentally, both of them lifted their heads at the same time and caught each other's stare.

Instead of looking away, the two ended up staring at each other with a curious gaze for a long time. Both of them felt as if they had seen each other before, but was not sure where or when was the last time they saw each other.
