Shen Du could see what she was thinking and suppressed a smile as he explained, "There’s a hook in the bathroom. I’ll help you hang it up."
Yao Nian responded with an "oh," suddenly realizing that the design of this hospital room wasn’t entirely unreasonable. Wait a minute, she turned to Shen Du and thought, if that’s the case, why can’t I hang it myself?
Is it possible that he paused for half a second because you can’t reach? What kind of terrible designer is this!
Seeing the girl’s awkward demeanor, Shen Du lowered his gaze and smiled lightly. It seemed necessary to find a caregiver after all.
After finishing the morning check-up, under Shen Du's watchful eye, Yao Nian drank an entire bowl of tasteless rice porridge.
"Uncle Shen," she said, noticing the dark circles under his eyes and the faint fatigue on his brow. "You’ve stayed up all night. You should go home and rest this afternoon. I really am fine."
Shen Du packed the empty food container into a bag and glanced at her. "Since you care about others, why can’t you take care of yourself?"
"How am I caring for others?" Yao Nian replied, puzzled.
Shen Du's gaze drifted to a small piece of bread in the corner of the sofa.
She rubbed her nose, realizing that he was aware of everything.
"Alright," Shen Du said as he tied up the bag with a knot. Yao Nian felt a gentle weight on her head as his palm covered it lightly, and then she heard him say, "You don’t need to get an IV this afternoon. Just take a good nap. I’ll contact a caregiver."
Whether it was her imagination or not, she detected a hint of tenderness in his words.
Yao Nian felt sleepy but couldn’t fall asleep at all while lying in bed. Every time she closed her eyes, his phantom would inexplicably appear in her mind.
To distract herself, she decided not to sleep and took out her phone to check her messages. Xu Jiayi had sent her several WeChat messages that she hadn’t had time to reply to yet.
【How’s it going with Uncle Shen? Did you have a romantic candlelight dinner?】
【No need to thank me; my name is Lei Feng.】
【Hey, not replying?】
【You’ve forgotten your friends for love!】
As Yao Nian scrolled through the chat history, she suddenly regretted telling Xu Jiayi about Shen Du.
She casually snapped a photo of the hospital room and sent it over.
Within two minutes, Xu Jiayi's video call came through.
Yao Nian pressed the answer button, and Xu Jiayi's wide-eyed expression instantly filled the screen.
"What the hell? What's going on? Are you in a hospital?"
"Minor gastric perforation. Almost killed me with the pain."
Xu Jiayi gaped in disbelief, "When did this happen? Why didn't I hear about it?"
"Don't panic," Yao Nian replied. "I'm feeling much better now. Besides, with what happened last night, I didn't have time to contact you."
"So, it was Uncle Shen who took you to the hospital?"
Yao Nian nodded.
"He took care of you last night?"
Yao Nian nodded again.
Xu Jiayi squinted her eyes, her expression turning teasing. "Yao Nian, does this count as a blessing in disguise?"
Yao Nian was speechless, "Can you focus on what's important? I was in so much pain last night I almost met my great-grandmother!"
"Alright, alright! Since you're the patient, I won't tease you. Which hospital are you in? I'll come visit."
Yao Nian gave her the address and quickly added, "Don't tell Zhou Shiyi. My stomach already hurts; I don't want my head to hurt too."
