Xhulien' POV
I woke up by the searing pain I felt in my right leg.
"Aahhh! Sh*t!" I cursed.
I can't move it!
"Xhulien! Does it hurt?!"
The door of the room opened. Jiamu was holding a small baisin his face was full of worries. The glow in his eyes that I usually see was gone. I can tell that he has lack of sleep.
"Are you okay?! Tell me where does it hurt?" He asked and put the baisin on the side table.
Only then I realized I was not in my room, I am in a hospital.
"How many days am I here?" I asked.
"Are you hungry? Don't you want to eat?"
"I'm asking a question yet your answering me a question?"
Jiamu looked at me, I can see the hesitation in his eyes.
"Tell me." I said and smiled.
"You have been here for already 8 days."
"What?! 8 days?! Are you kidding me?!" I shouted.
"Here."
Jiamu handed me my phone. When I opened it, my eyes widened. It is already 24th of the month and the last thing I remember was I went out with Li Wei at 16th. It has been 8 days! Jiamu is correct. That means I have been sleeping for 8 days.
I look at him with a shy smile.
"Sorry" I said in a low voice.
"It's okay, by the way do you want to eat? Madam Lu brought you a soup earlier."
"Wait, Are you the one who looked after me since day one?" I asked curiously.
Jiamu's ear's turned red.
"Aaahh-"
"Why are your ears red?" I asked again.
"That's nothing, EHEM-" He cleared his throat
"I have to look after you because I have no choice, your parent's are not here, Madam Lu has many chores to do in the villa, I'm just the one who can take care of you." Jiamu explained.
"Aren't you busy?"
"No"
"Why?"
"Stop asking questions and eat this soup made by Madam Lu." He opened a tupperware put at the side table.
He pulled the hospital bed table and put the bowl he filled with soup.
"Eat" He said.
"How about you? Have you eaten already?"
"Don't worry about me just eat." He answered.
"I don't worry about you, it's my conscience if you get sick and passed out." I said and put a spoonful of soup in my mouth.
He didn't answer me, he was just watching me with his lips curled up in a smile.
"It is the first time that we've talked this long." I said while my mouth is full.
"Don't worry there will be no next time. And could you please eat with poise! Tsk! You're like a kid." He stood up then threw pieces of paper napkins on my face.
"Eh? Where are you going?" I asked when I saw him open the door.
"I'll inform the doctor that you're awake." He answered and closed the door as soon as he got out.
"Okay." I whispered and finished my soup.
After eating I leaned on the headboard of the hospital bed.The room has a wide space and elegant, which I can tell that this is a private hospital.
For the reason that I have nothing to do, I grabbed my phone on the side table.
"He even charged it?" I whispered on myself when I saw the battery is full. I didn't saw it earlier because I only looked at the date and time.
Bbbeeeppp Bbbeeeeeppppp
A new message appeared on my phone just as soon as I opened it. It is from Qiao qiao.
From:Qiao quiao
Hey boss! Where have you been? You aren't answering my messages and calls to you! Today is the 70th year anniversary of the underworld in case you forgot! See you at the venue.
Venue: ShaoZhen Hotel
To:Qiao qiao
I'll be there but come and fetch me in
"Aish! Why didn't I ask Jiamu on where hospital we are.Uuugghhh." I frustratedly erased my message and kicked my leg like a child.
"Aaawwww!" I shouted and hold my right leg.
Aish! I forgot that I'm injured.
"Xhulien!" The door opened wide.
It's Jiamu with the doctor. Jiamu let out a sigh of relief.
"Doctor, please monitor her." He said.
The doctor did some checks on me and on my wound.
"She is okay,the wound has completely healed but she can still feel a sprung of pain because the tissues on her leg hasn't completely healed yet. She needs two to three days of rest for her to fully recover and walk." The doctor stated continously.
But I have to go to the ShaoZhen Hotel today. What do I do?
Jiamu and I nodded at the doctor.
"If you have no questions? Please excuse me." The doctor bowed his head.
"Thank you doctor." Jiamu said.
He took the doctor out and closed the door.
"Aren't you going home?" I asked him.
"Why do you suddenly want me to go home?" His face looks confused.
"Because-"
What would I say?
Because I would attend an anniversary for my underground business.?
No way, I can't tell him that secret.
"-ahh nothing" I just shrugged.
"Okay." He said.
"I'll just go home to take a shower and change, but i'll be right back." He continued, and gave me a smile. A genuine one.
"Eehhemmm" me* while nodding my head and smiling widely.
