Lin jiage replied with an “Un”. Shi Yao was just about to ask him why he drank, but before she could finish her sentence, she realized that Lin Jiage was only wearing a shoe.
His feet were covered in dirt, and the soles of his feet were probably scratched by something. There was blood all over the place.
From the looks of it… he must have been walking on the ground barefoot for a very long time… did he lose his shoes on the way to the hospital?
An indescribable emotion instantly filled Shi Yao’s heart.
She stared at his feet for a long while before gently moving her fingertips. Then, she realized that the clothes on his body were extremely damp.
She frowned and turned her head around. There was a large patch of wet clothes on his usually neat white t-shirt.
As he was relatively close to her, she moved her head closer to the wet patch. She then smelled the strong scent of alcohol on his clothes.
In just a few seconds, Shi Yao realized that his clothes weren’t wet from the water, but from the alcohol.
She had lived with him for a month, so she had a good understanding of his daily habits. He loved cleanliness to the point of making one’s hair stand on end, but he was actually willing to spend several hours with her in the hospital while wearing dirty clothes?
Shi Yao stared at the stain on Lin Jiage’s clothes, and she couldn’t help but tighten her grip on them as she pursed her lips.
Lin Jiage, who was hugging her, could feel the slight stiffness in her body. With a hint of anxiety, he lowered his head and asked, “What’s wrong? Are You in pain again?”
“I knew it! That doctor is a quack!”Without waiting for Shi Yao to respond, Lin Jiage turned to the taxi driver and said, “Sir, we’re going to the hospital. We’re going to the best hospital in your city…”
“No, no, no…”Shi Yao was so shocked by Lin jiage that she couldn’t help but say a few “No’s”.
Seeing one saying ‘Yes’and the other saying ‘No’, the taxi driver slowed down his speed, not knowing what to do. “Are we going or not?”
Afraid that Lin Jiage would say something, Shi Yao raised her hand to cover his mouth before replying to the taxi driver, “I’m sorry, sir. We’re not going to the hospital. We’re going to the hotel address that we gave you just now…”
It was only after the taxi driver continued speeding down the road that Shi Yao turned to Lin Jiage, who had his mouth covered, and said, “I’m fine. There’s no need for me to go to the hospital. I…”
At this point, she seemed to have realized something, and she suddenly stopped.
I was just a little touched that I nearly blurted out those words from the bottom of my heart..
“What?”Seeing that she was halfway through her sentence, Lin Jiage asked in confusion. His voice was a little muffled due to her covering her mouth.
Shi Yao snapped back to her senses and replied with a random “OH”before turning her eyes around. As if nothing had happened, she casually found a topic to talk about, she tried to cover it up, “I just wanted to say, why didn’t you invite me along when you were drinking? You’re so ungrateful!”
“I…”Lin Jiage stumbled for a moment, but he didn’t know how to continue.
He couldn’t possibly say that he was in a bad mood and had gone to drink alone, right? How embarrassing would that be..
After thinking for two seconds, Lin Jiage continued replying,”… I have an appointment with a client.”
A sudden realization dawned on Shi Yao, and she replied with an ‘oh’, “I thought you were in a bad mood, so you went out to drink alone…”
Hearing those words, Lin Jiage turned his head guiltily and looked out the window, “How is that possible? Do I look like the type of person who would drown his sorrows in alcohol?”
