Tang Yanqi briefly explained the situation, but there was no response from Qi Cheng for a long time. After a night of exhaustion, Tang Yanqi carefully climbed up and lay down with one hand. Before the sleepiness could overcome her, her phone vibrated again, and looking at the message, Tang Yanqi’s eyes suddenly widened.
[Tangtang, you’re happy just because a scumbag bandaged your wound, right?]
After leaving Sheng Jianan’s apartment, Tang Yanqi felt very exhausted, but at the same time, there was an inexplicable happiness in her heart. Now, suddenly hearing Qi Cheng say it so bluntly, she couldn’t quite describe the feeling in her heart. It felt strange and anxious.
Without replying to Qi Cheng’s message, Tang Yanqi pulled the quilt over her head and fell asleep. She barely slept last night and wore herself out early in the morning. Her body was very tired, and she slept heavily.
When Tang Yanqi woke up, it was already the late afternoon when the sun was setting. Leaning on her arms to sit up, she felt burning hot all over, her throat dry, and the hand wrapped like a dumpling was painfully hot.
Tang Yanqi furrowed her brow deeply, lifted the mosquito net, and glanced downward. Only Qi Cheng was sitting in her spot watching a show. Opening her mouth, Tang Yanqi quietly spoke: "Chengzi."
Qi Cheng was wearing headphones, and it took several calls and some bed shaking for her to hear anything: "Tangtang, what’s wrong?"
"I think... I think I’m not feeling well."
Qi Cheng was neither as gentle as Bai Xue nor as decisive as Bai Bing. Upon discovering Tang Yanqi had a fever, she panicked: "What should we do? What should we do? Go to the hospital? Yes, we should go to the hospital, I’ll get your clothes."
Tang Yanqi truly felt extremely uncomfortable, yet she had to endure Qi Cheng’s chatter. After much effort, they both managed to get dressed and head downstairs. Since taxis couldn’t enter the campus, they had no choice but to walk out to find one. By the time Qi Cheng got Tang Yanqi to the hospital, she was already in a daze from the fever.
Mu Yunfan, tasked with an emergency surgery today, had just finished and was preparing to head home for a rest. As he walked to the emergency room entrance, he unexpectedly saw a familiar figure lying on a bench in the hospital corridor.
Mu Yunfan frowned. Being a doctor, he could tell something was wrong with Tang Yanqi even from a distance. He stepped forward: "Tang..."
Before Mu Yunfan could say anything, his gaze was caught by Tang Yanqi’s hand, wrapped like a dumpling. They had just met last night, and at that time, she was lively; how did she end up ?
Is her hand wrapped up because of an injury?
"Tangtang, I’m sorry, please make way."
Qi Cheng had registered, figured out what to do, and hurried over to support Tang Yanqi. Looking up, she saw Mu Yunfan and paused for a moment. Although she was infatuated, now was evidently not the time for it. She supported Tang Yanqi and went around Mu Yunfan inside.
Mu Yunfan stood in place for a moment and then followed. Inside the ward, the doctor measured Tang Yanqi’s temperature while unwrapping the bandage on her hand.
The wound had already shown signs of infection, and the doctor frowned, complaining: "You young girls are reckless. With such a big wound, how could you not get a tetanus shot? Do you think just disinfecting it is enough? Wrapped up , do you still want your hand?"
Qi Cheng, inexplicably scolded, did not get angry and scratched her head: "Doctor, what should we do now?"
"We’ll re-treat the wound. She’ll need an injection. Her high fever is probably due to the wound. This is no joke. You’d better go pay the fee first."
