About half an hour later, the girl returned to the ward, seemingly carrying dinner in her hand.
"Hey? I bought dinner. Are you hungry?"
Hearing the girl’s voice again, Qin Sijue opened his eyes once more, weakly glancing at her.
The girl smiled, lifting the dinner she held in her hand.
"Doctor Du said that for the next couple of days, you could only have something like porridge, so I bought you eight-treasure porridge."
Having said that, she proceeded to unpack the dinner.
"Come on, let me feed you!" The girl didn’t care at all whether he was a bad person or a good one, and was very willing to feed him.
However, Qin Sijue just glanced lightly at the eight-treasure porridge she had looked at and turned his face away, closing his eyes once again.
The girl’s movements froze mid-air, looking puzzled at the man in the bed.
This man seemed somewhat haughty, and his demeanor was dismissive. Didn’t he know it was she who had saved him? If not for her kindness, he would probably have met the King of Hell by now!
"Hey! What’s with you, not knowing how to be grateful? I’m the one who saved you!"
The girl glared at him, dissatisfied.
At this moment, Qin Sijue opened his eyes again, looking at the girl.
In a weak yet clear voice, he asked, "Who are you? Where is this place? Why am I here?"
The girl was taken aback. Why did he start off with those three questions?
"You should eat first!"
Qin Sijue remained silent and closed his eyes again.
Watching him close his eyes once more, the girl opened her mouth, but in the end, she seemed to be unable to stand up to him.
"Fine, fine, I’ll tell you!" Seeing him open his eyes again, the girl pursed her lips, "My name is Ling Xi, this is K County in C City. As for you..." She looked at him, recalling how he was covered in blood in the trunk of her car when she first saw him.
"When I was coming back from C City, I found you lying in the trunk of my car. As for why you were in my trunk, you should probably ask yourself that, shouldn’t you?"
She remembered that after putting the luggage in the trunk, she had been driving the whole time, stopping only once on the coastal road.
Could it be that was when he had sneaked into her trunk?
With this thought, the girl’s gaze landed once again on the man’s handsome face.
Qin Sijue stared at her, trying to retrieve his memories from before he passed out, following her story.
"Who exactly are you? When I saved you, you didn’t have any identification on you, not even a cell phone. Are you a local? Why were you injured? You aren’t being pursued by enemies, are you?"
The girl stared at him, bombarding him with a series of questions.
Qin Sijue glanced at her briefly but didn’t answer a single word, choosing instead to close his eyes again.
Seeing him close his eyes once more, the girl was taken aback again.
Why did he keep closing his eyes like that?
"Hey, you haven’t told me who you are? What’s your name? Where do you live?"
In the time that followed, no matter how much the girl called out to him, Qin Sijue didn’t respond at all.
The night grew deeper.
Knowing that he had awoken, the girl didn’t seem to plan on going home but stayed the whole night there.
The next day, Qin Sijue’s complexion had improved a lot, but due to his severe injuries, he still couldn’t get up since moving would cause the wounds to open again.
Early in the morning, Ling Xi bought breakfast.
"I got you porridge!"
Looking at the unfamiliar girl in front of him, Qin Sijue showed no interest in the porridge in her hands.
