Knock knock...
The sound of knocking repeatedly echoed in Sheng Jiaoyang's ears, waking her up from her deep slumber. Before she'd even opened her eyes, she felt shocks of pain in her head as if someone was constantly beating a drum next to her ears.
She got up with a heavy head and almost lost her footing. She quickly held onto the wall and slowly moved to open the door.
"Don't you know who's here? How come we knocked for so long and yet you only open the door now...?" Ning Xiaoruan didn't even finish talking when Sheng Jiaoyang collapsed. He subconsciously reached out to catch her, but then he remembered that her boyfriend was standing next to him, so he quickly handed her over to the other person.
"Cousin, take care of your girlfriend yourself."
Shen Zhining glanced indifferently at Ning Xiaoruan and looked down at the person who'd fallen into his arms. The face that used to be either smiling or whimsical was now deathly pale, carrying with it a tint of red. He didn't even need to take a second look at her to know that she was running a high fever.
"Go find her long coat," he commanded.
Ning Xiaoruan quickly entered the room, grabbed a windbreaker from the closet, and ran back outside to hand it over to his cousin.
Shen Zhining wrapped the clothes around Sheng Jiaoyang, picked her up, and quickly walked towards the elevator.
When Sheng Jiaoyang awoke, she was already in a ward, hooked up to an IV.
Only Zeng Huan was sitting in the room, playing on her phone with her head lowered.
"Pour me a glass of water." Sheng Jiaoyang leaned against the bedhead and slowly sat up.
When Zeng Huan heard her speak, she quickly put down her phone to go pour water whilst saying, "Jiaojiao, you really scared me this time. It's all my fault, I should've bought you some cold medicine after you finished filming that scene in the rain yesterday. No, I should've prepared them beforehand..."
"It's okay, this has nothing to do with you," Sheng Jiaoyang said as she took the cup of water.
When she'd finished drinking, she asked, "What time is it now?"
"It's almost five in the afternoon," Zeng Huan looked at her watch and replied.
"It's Ning Xiaoruan who brought me here, right? Where is he?"
"Assistant Ning is also here, but his cousin was the one who brought you here." Zeng Huan cast a prudent glance at Sheng Jiaoyang as she continued, "I accidentally overheard Assistant Ning saying that you're his cousin's girlfriend. Does President Li know about this?"
"Mhmm." Sheng Jiaoyang nodded absent-mindedly while wondering: When did Shen Zhining come to find her, and why? Could it be that his family has arranged another blind date for him?
While she was deep in thought, the person in question actually arrived.
"How are you feeling now? "Shen Zhining walked over to the bedside and looked down at her.
"I'm feeling alright. I'm well enough to get discharged now." Sheng Jiaoyang bit her lip and added, "Uhmm, thanks for bringing me to the hospital."
When Ning Xiaoruan walked into the ward with food in his hand, he heard Sheng Jiaoyang's words and immediately asked in bewilderment, "Did you guys really break up?"
The reason he thought this was because the two people in front of him normally loved to show their affection in front of others. But, they'd suddenly started treating each other like outsiders, which was very unusual.
