“Heh, so would you be willing to be with me?”
The man’s voice seemed laced with seduction; his laughter brushed against the depths of his heart like feathers.
“No.”
Shu Xian swallowed, pinched his thigh hard to try to sober himself up.
He had actually been charmed.
But it was developing too fast for him to accept.
This man dared to ask to be together outright today, and tomorrow he’d dare to go all the way with him.
He was scared.
“So afraid of me?”
“No… no.”
“Remember my name. I’m Mo Sen.”
“Mo Sen?”
Shu Xian glanced at his work badge. The name sounded quite nice.
Mo Sen leaned closer and closer. Just as Shu Xian was about to push him away with all his strength, the man stood up from the chair and turned his wheelchair in another direction.
“Alright, I’ll take you back now.”
“Huh? I don’t want to go back.”
If he went back, how would they build their feelings?
“With a face like that and this willfulness, you’ll easily end up with an aching back and a sore behind, you know.”
The man pressed close to him, the hot breath he exhaled intentionally or unintentionally brushing against his ear, sending a tingling numbness that made him tremble.
“……”
“Push me outside for a walk.”
Shu Xian said, steeling himself.
For the task!
“You’re the first person who has dared to order me around like this.”
“But I don’t dislike it. In fact, I kind of like it.”
The man lightly pinched his cheek.
Mmm, the feel was just as good as he had imagined.
Shu Xian touched the spot that had been pinched. The warmth from the man’s fingertips seemed to linger there.
It was pinched quite hard but didn’t hurt.
It must be because he was a doctor with good technique.
When he was pushed outside, he remembered that they were at the military camp.
Inside the hospital at the military camp.
Outside were many young people learning self-defense, mostly women.
They were probably all there to see the handsome men.
“Brother.”
“Brother, look up.”
Several familiar voices made him lift his head.
Li Wu, meeting Shu Xian’s gaze, said urgently:
“Brother, I got locked in the room.”
“Little brother, don’t worry. Brother will come save you now.”
Shu Xian said worriedly.
Then he turned to the attending physician and said, “Push me back, thank you.”
“Heh…”
“Okay.”
What?
What did that mean?
Shu Xian turned to see his expression, but he couldn’t make it out clearly against the backlight.
His eyes were also so blinded by the sun that he could barely open them.
“Don’t look. It’ll hurt your eyes.”
The man’s large hand covered his eyes.
“Mm, hurry and take me back.”
Shu Xian removed the big hand covering his eyes and instinctively looked up at Li Wu.
Why was that guy suddenly gritting his teeth?
Back in the ward, Shu Xian learned that Jian Fang had a schedule and had left first.
Fu Yichen had gone back to the military camp dorm to wash up and would come over later.
Shu Xian felt like crying.
He was so sad.
Only Li Wu had been locked in the room.
Only Li Wu alone!
Boo boo, all for nothing.
And he had been teased by the attending physician.
Boo boo boo, life is so hard.
『Host, let me hug you. It’s okay.』
『The task will trigger automatically when the time comes.』
『Rest first and let your leg heal.』
006 felt sorry for Shu Xian.
This host was carrying a workplace injury and still insisting on working for the task.
Yeah, he might as well just lie down properly.
To avoid wasting effort again, sigh…
“Brother, that nurse was so careless. She even locked the wrong room.”
Li Wu pressed himself against Shu Xian, fuming as he tattled.
“There, there. Were you scared?”
Shu Xian rubbed his head guiltily.
“Mm, I was so scared. Brother didn’t bring his phone. I thought I was going to be locked in here forever.”
Li Wu burrowed into his arms, as if he really were frightened.
Shu Xian rolled his eyes inwardly. Kid, don’t overdo it.
He had just gone to see the doctor and was coming back to the ward to stay, okay?
But Shu Xian let him be, since he was a little guilty himself.
Luckily, Li Wu didn’t press further.
“Brother, I had the nanny make you soup. You’ll be able to drink it soon.”
Li Wu took his hand and coaxed him.
“Okay, thank you, little brother.”
He really was a virtuous little shou. Just wait for them to cherish you.
Shu Xian looked at him with tenderness, mixed with a trace of pity.
Could Li Wu handle it?
Soon, dinner was delivered, and Fu Yichen happened to arrive just then.
Fortunately, enough food had been sent.
“Eat together.”
Shu Xian invited them both.
“Brother, you two go ahead.”
“There’s only enough for two. I’m not hungry.”
Li Wu opened the lunch boxes and made as if to leave.
“What do you mean, not hungry? You come over here and sit down.”
This kid was throwing another tantrum. If he didn’t want to share with Fu Yichen, he should have just said so.
“Heh, enough. There’s no audience here for all this acting.”
Fu Yichen couldn’t stand Shu Xian’s little brother anymore. He was exactly like the “green tea” type his teammates talked about.
“I brought quite a bit of food too. Let’s eat together.”
“Brother, what does he mean? Is he talking about me?”
Li Wu tugged at Shu Xian’s sleeve, looking aggrieved.
“It’s nothing. He’s not talking about you. Just eat your meal obediently.”
Shu Xian gave him a chicken leg.
He figured this kid just wanted more attention from others. He’d teach him properly later and give him more care.
“Thank you for the chicken leg, brother.”
Li Wu waved the chicken leg in front of Fu Yichen to show off.
Heh, childish tricks.
“Here, have more to eat, my best friend.”
Fu Yichen gave Shu Xian some vegetables.
“Hahaha, okay, okay. You eat more too, my best friend.”
Shu Xian was overjoyed. Fu Yichen had actually called him his best friend.
He gave him some vegetables in return.
Fu Yichen shot Li Wu a challenging look.
Serving food? Who couldn’t do that?
Throughout the meal, only Shu Xian ate happily.
The other two ate with a heavy dose of gunpowder.
……
Finally, he could be discharged.
Li Wu was in the ward helping him pack.
Shu Xian, leaning on his crutches, was called to the doctor’s office for some instructions.
After the nurse left, she conveniently closed the door, leaving only the two of them in the office.
Shu Xian was a little panicked.
“Doctor Mo…”
Shu Xian called out to him. This Mo Sen was staring at him blankly, which was creepy.
“Call me by my name.”
“Mo… Mo Sen.”
“Shu Xian.”
Mo Sen responded to him too.
“Hmm? What is it?”
What was wrong with this doctor today, acting so weird?
“After you’re discharged, will you forget me?”
What do you think? He still had some trauma now.
How could he forget so easily?
“No… no.”
“Heh, that’s good.”
Hearing Shu Xian’s reply, the man seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Shu Xian tilted his head. And then?
“Just like the nurse said earlier, pay more attention to those things.”
“If there’s no problem, you can come back in ten days to remove the cast.”
Mo Sen instructed.
“Mm, okay.”
“Then… I’ll go first. Goodbye, Doctor Mo.”
This place was not worth lingering in.
Shu Xian stood on one foot, took his crutches, tucked them under his armpits, and slowly hobbled step by step.
It was his first time using crutches, so he wasn’t walking very smoothly.
“Let me carry you over.”
Before he could refuse, Mo Sen lifted him up in a princess carry.
“Ah, no need. Put me down.”
Shu Xian felt awkward. He didn’t want to be princess-carried. So many people were watching.
Mo Sen didn’t give him a chance to get down.
Helpless, Shu Xian had no choice but to bury his face in the man’s chest.
