"Are you facing any difficulties?" The moment Jian Anning heard that, she knew something was off with Zhao Ziyin’s remark and promptly asked, "If there’s anything, I can help with, just let me know!"
"It’s nothing." She smiled and shook her head, then suddenly patted the small bed, "The hospital is too stingy, the beds are so narrow! Luckily, we’re both girls and not overweight. If it were a man and a woman sleeping here, it would definitely be cramped."
This was a single patient room, and since Zhao Ziyin arrived late, there was no extra bed. However, hearing her last sentence, Jian Anning immediately thought of Yu Zexiao, who was waiting in the next room, and felt a bit awkward.
Nevertheless, the priority was to get Zhao Ziyin to fall asleep quickly, to not keep the guy next door waiting too long. Otherwise, who knows what might happen later!
"Go to sleep." She yawned and spread out the blanket, "Don’t you have things to do tomorrow morning? Rest well."
"Go to sleep this early?" Zhao Ziyin glanced at her with confusion, "Big sister, it’s only ten-thirty! You know I’ve always been a night owl."
"Staying up late isn’t good for your health," Jian Anning naturally felt embarrassed to say that her reason for urging her to sleep early was because of Yu Zexiao!
Zhao Ziyin did not object, lying down on the bed and smiling, "But, we can also chat for a while. It’s been a long time since we’ve had a night talk."
"Yeah." Upon hearing her bring it up, Jian Anning also felt nostalgic. The two lay flat on the hospital’s small bed and began to reminisce about the past.
"Do you remember? William from school actually liked you the most," Zhao Ziyin said. "I remember he kept a few ponies at home, was incredibly shy, but he really liked you a lot. Although he had some freckles on his face, he was quite handsome, a flaw that didn’t hide his good looks. Why didn’t you like him?"
"I’m not into white men." Perhaps, at that time, Jian Anning never considered that in the future, she might become involved with a man named William - and it would be the same man pursuing her.
But this time, she almost felt her heart move.
"Right, those men just look good, and during college, they’re mostly just fooling around. There are very few who truly have feelings for you," Zhao Ziyin nodded. "What about your future plans?"
"Don’t play dumb, your future plans!" she exclaimed. "I know you like Yu Zexiao, but how could a man like him stay for you? You’re not really foolish enough to keep following him, are you?"
At this, Jian Anning fell silent. She pondered for a moment, her head turned towards the stark white ceiling, and after a long pause, she said, "I do like him. I also know that he’s that kind of man, and the chances of being with him are so slim. I just want to try."
"You’re being silly!" Zhao Ziyin said, "I admit, he is very handsome, and his family is wealthy, but you’re not relying on his family’s money to live. Not to mention, with him being so good-looking, he’s definitely not a safe bet. Do you have any idea how many women you’re competing against? There must be at least tens of thousands of women who would do anything just for a glimpse of him!"
Sorry for the delay, everyone! Tomorrow, the hospital PLAY Xingxing has been looking forward to~
