~On the last day of the vacation, in Luo Jingli's ward~

After Luo Jingli was "forced" to stay in the hospital for five days by Li Zheng coercing and persuasion, he finally couldn't stand it anymore due to boredom.

"I am not sick! I'm just a little malnourished and didn't get enough rest! What am I still doing in the hospital?" As he said as he was about to get out of bed and leave the hospital.

"Jingli... wait a moment. I'll call the doctor to come check on you before we leave, alright?" Li Zheng immediately coaxed Luo Jingli to lie back down on the bed when he saw this, and finally persuaded Luo Jingli to wait for the doctor to finish the examination before talking about leaving the hospital.

Soon after, the doctor and the nurse came to Luo Jingli's ward, and according to Li Zheng's intention, he carefully checked Luo Jingli.

"Doctor, can I leave the hospital now? I don't feel anything wrong now." Luo Jingli asked the doctor after finishing the examinations.

"Doctor, how is he?" Li Zheng couldn't help but worry when he saw the doctor's furrowed brows.

What's wrong. Is there something wrong with Jingli's body again? I made sure he finished all his meals...

"The patient has no problems now and can be discharged. I will prescribe some medicine just in case so go to the pharmacy's counter to get it before leaving the hospital. The pharmacy is on the ground floor.” The doctor said to Li Zheng before turning to Luo Jingli, “If you suddenly feel uncomfortable when you return back home, you can take the medicine I prescribed first. If you still feel uncomfortable afterwards, come back to the hospital for another checkup. Go back and take good care of your body, you have to eat regularly and drink plenty of warm water. And also, get enough rest.”

Hearing this, Li Zheng sighed in relief. Thank god there is nothing wrong with Jingli's body.

"Thank you for taking care of me these days. Later, the tour need to gather at the hotel's lobby to wait for the bus back to the city, so I have to go back to the hotel to pack my luggage first..." After the doctor left, Luo Jing got off the bed and picked up the backpack beside the bed, getting ready to leave.

"Jingli, you...I...I have something to tell you, can you...wait for a minute?" Seeing that Luo Jingli was about to leave, Li Zheng walked forward and grabbed his hand hurriedly.

"Ah...what..." Luo Jingli stuttered suddenly, his heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably and he felt that his heart was going to jump out of his chest, and his ears turned as red as a tomato. He didn't dare to turn around to face Li Zheng.

"I... this may sound absurd, but... but I really like... Um... I love you... Can you... Don't leave me anymore, okay?"

When Luo Jingli heard it, his eyes widened in shock and turned around to look at Li Zheng inconceivably. Li Zheng likes himself, he likes... himself?

"How could it be...you...it’s impossible…" Luo Jingli murmured.

"It’s not impossible. In the past, I didn't understand my feelings and did a lot of unreasonable things, and hurt you... Speaking of which, it's more likely impossible for you to still like me instead of the other way round." At the end, Li Zheng couldn't help but laugh wryly at himself.

"But...but I...my family background...you...I...I don't deserve you...I'm not good...really... I’m not good at all..."

"Who dares say that! You are the best person in the world. I like you and I want to be with you. It doesn't matter what your family background is or what mine is! You don't have to look down on yourself just because of this." Li Zheng immediately grabbed Luo Jingli's hand after hearing Luo Jingli’s pessimistic comment.

"I... if you just did this on a whim... in the future... what do I do if you don't want me..." Luo Jingli’s voice gradually diminished, the more he spoke, the more aggrieved he felt, soon he was about to cry.

"No! I swear, I will never leave you! Otherwise...otherwise I will be struck by lightning, I..." Li Zheng wanted to continue, but Luo Jingli placed his hand on his mouth.

"Don't...Don't say...you...I...I actually really still like you..." Luo Jingli lowered his head as he said, and didn't dare to look at the hot pupils of the person in front of him, and slowly retracted his hands.

"Really? Jingli, do you really still like me? That is wonderful!" Li Zheng happily carried Luo Jingli and spun around in circles, and the joyful laughs of the two echoed in the hospital's corridor.

~After they returned to city A~

Ever since coming back from vacation, and after the relationship between Li Zheng and Luo Jingli had been confirmed, Li Zheng has been starting to be cute and coquettish and urging Luo Jingli to move back to his mansion. Just for this, Li Zheng found a lot of excuses.

"Jing Li, please move back, if you are not there, I can't eat well."

"Jingli, I can't sleep well if you are not here, so move back, please."

"Jingli, move back quickly. Without you, the mansion feels so empty."

But of course, Luo Jingli would not agree. He still has to take care of his mother at home, it is impossible to leave her alone at home and move away for no reason. Moreover, he still wanted to attend  university. If he moved back to Li Zheng’s mansion, it would be too far away from the university, then he would have to live on campus, making it pointless to move into Li Zheng’s mansion. But of course, Luo Jingli did not tell Li Zheng about his thoughts as he was afraid of toubling Li Zheng.

However, with just a little prying, Li Zheng soon discovered what Luo Jingli was thinking and all his concerns. After which, he started to plan for something secretly.
