I’m. Getting. Angry. Again!

Gu Mingxi’s IV drip was nearly finished. Pang Qian was about to call someone over, when a young nurse walked over. As she was changing Gu Mingxi’s medicine, she realized that Pang Qian was sitting right there. “Are you this student’s friend?”

“Yeah, I am.” Pang Qian nodded her head. The nurse said, “I say, how can this student come for his IV alone? And it’s so cold out, but he came wearing flip flops. Isn’t he afraid he’ll get more sick?”

She glanced down and smiled. “Oh, you’re awake. Yeah, I was talking about you.”

Pang Qian looked over. Gu Mingxi had already opened his eyes. Lying in the infusion chair, he turned his head to look at her.

After the nurse left, Pang Qian sat up and stared at Gu Mingxi’s bare feet. She kept staring, and then reached out her hand to grab his foot. Good thing that the infusion room had heating, so his foot wasn’t much colder than normal.

Gu Mingxi withdrew his feet from her hold. “Why did you come?”

“Why do you think? Pang Qian was angry again. “What do you mean by this, Gu Mingxi? Didn’t we agree that you’d wait until I came back, and I’d come to the hospital with you? I didn’t come back late either. I got home at 3:30! Why did you run off to the hospital on your own?”

As she spoke, she started tugging at Gu Mingxi’s shirt. He only had on one cotton sweater. Then she tried to pull his pants, but Gu Mingxi wouldn’t let her. “Don’t look, I’m not wearing the cotton pants underneath, okay! I’m not cold!”

“Not cold?!” Pang Qian huffed. “You’re only wearing one sweater. You have a fever and you’re coughing, don’t you know! If my dad finds out, he’ll definitely scold me! And you’re not wearing shoes! Why aren’t you wearing shoes?! You think it’s summer time right now! I know that you need your toes to do things, but couldn’t you have just waited for me to come home? You don’t have arms! How can you just go to the hospital by yourself! I was nearly scared to death, do you know!”

“I left you a note.” Gu Mingxi bit his lip. Looking at Pang Qian seriously, he said, “I left it on your desk. Didn’t you see it?”

Pang Qian stopped for a moment. She hadn’t even thought that Gu Mingxi would leave a note.

With lowered eyes, Gu Mingxi continued, “I don’t have arms, but I can still go to the hospital for an IV drip. I admit that not wearing more clothes wasn’t that good, and it’s a bit cold, but the shoes… I used to wear flip flops in the winter all the time, so I’m just used to it. At worst, they’ll just get a bit frostbitten. It’s not the first time.”

Pang Qian, “…”

Gu Mingxi slowly turned to look at her, being careful with the needle in his neck. He looked like he was suffering a bit, as if Pang Qian had bullied him again. He said, “I’ve already brought a lot of trouble to you guys, staying at your house. Auntie had to wash my clothes, Uncle had to cook congee for me. I even took your bed to sleep in. So I didn’t want to stop you from going to play.”

After a pause, he said, “Pang Pang, I always thought that you didn’t mind that I didn’t have arms.”

Pang Qian gaped at him.

Gu Mingxi smiled and continued, “But it seems like…you’re like everyone else, concerned about it.”

Before, Pang Qian had a lot of words to say. But after hearing Gu Mingxi’s words, she suddenly found herself without the strength, unsure of how to explain it.
