Yang Su felt a little awkward and helpless, so she had no choice but to hand the phone to Nanxi. Nanxi found Lu Yinchu’s number and walked towards the balcony to make the call!
The call was answered quickly, so quickly that it stunned Nanxi. Before she could say a word, the man’s voice came from the other end, stern and cold: "I’ll be there in ten minutes, take care of her for me in the meantime..."
"..." Nanxi was frozen, completely unsure of how to respond, in ten minutes... Lu Yinchu was... on his way?
Nanxi was rendered speechless, the only thought in her mind was:
Lu Yinchu is coming, he’s coming!
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Nanxi promptly ended the call, went back to her room, opened the closet, and started to frantically search for clothes...
Lan Qiqi was confused, "Nanxi, what are you doing?"
Nanxi replied, "Seeing a doctor!"
"Calm down, let me change my clothes and I’ll go with you!"
As Lan Qiqi was getting ready, Yang Su stopped her, "You don’t need to go with her, she has company..."
Nanxi paused for a moment while changing, then quickly got dressed. She put her phone, keys, wallet, cold medicine... and so on into her bag, changed her shoes, and dashed out of the room!
When she got to the door, she turned around with a somewhat pale face and said, "I’m going first! Don’t worry about me..."
Yang Su bit her lip and nodded.
Once Nanxi’s figure disappeared, Lan Qiqi, still somewhat confused, turned to ask Yang Su, "What’s going on?"
Yang Su sighed and said, "It’s a long story!"
It had just rained, cooling down the weather. The whole campus was filled with a subtle and elegant freshness. Nanxi walked slowly—her body didn’t have much strength left!
Her constitution was undeniably weak—she had nearly died at birth due to complications during delivery!
Her mother had been so unwell that she couldn’t produce milk, and her father’s humble salary meant that she had been malnourished as a child.
On top of it all, she had even suffered a severe illness at the age of three. Since then, her physique had always been weaker than most.
Fortunately, as her family’s financial situation improved, her health also eventually recovered after careful nurturing and proper medication.
Nevertheless, she was different from ordinary people. Using Gui Xi and Lun Ying’s words, she was "special".
Just as she reached the library, her phone in her bag rang. She glanced at the number—it was Lu Yinchu. After hesitating for two seconds, she answered.
Lu Yinchu called her name softly, his voice filled with such emotion that Nanxi nearly burst into tears!
She didn’t say anything, only gave a soft "Mhmm..." At some point, her eyelashes had actually become damp!
"Wait for me; I’m almost there!" Lu Yinchu said.
Nanxi replied with another "Mhmm..." She felt a touch of sadness, though she had no idea why she was upset!
Some students nearby were walking towards the canteen in pairs. Their conversations filtered through the phone into Lu Yinchu’s ear. He asked, "Where are you now?"
Nanxi bit her lip and replied after a moment to calm her breath, "Going to the hospital!"
"That girl named Yang Su?"
"Is anyone with you?"
Nanxi denied and bit her lip again, "I’m by myself!"
There was a pause on Lu Yinchu’s end, followed by a chuckle full of mirth.
Nanxi was taken aback. Why was he laughing when she was on the verge of tears? She had a sudden urge to throw her phone!
Then, he spoke again in his crystal clear voice, "I’m here—I’m at your school entrance, come outside!"
After a pause, he added, "I’ll accompany you to the hospital!"
At the entrance of H University, Nanxi looked around subconsciously and turned left, knowing he was just fifty steps away!
Her heart was in disarray. She had no clue why she had come outside. Probably, she thought, to prevent Lu Yinchu from charging in recklessly and causing chaos. The thought of that was horrifying...
But then she started to doubt herself. Maybe she was overthinking things. After all, Yang Su had just told Lu Yinchu that she had caught a cold, and he had rushed over. He could have asked to meet her outside...
Thinking this way, before anyone else could react, she had already come outside on her own. Did she act too rashly?
After she had walked about ten steps, she indeed saw the Land Rover. The man was standing in front of it, his tall figure undeniably dashing...
