Chapter 819: Chapter 816: How are you going to help me?

Before long, Ji Yanlin returned, holding a small bag that was clearly from the hospital pharmacy, containing the medication Ye Chaochao needed to take.

"Everything’s ready now, let’s go." Ji Yanlin softly said as he came to Ye Chaochao’s side.

Ye Chaochao nodded, stood up, and slowly followed Ji Yanlin out.

When they reached the parking lot, Ji Yanlin quickly opened the passenger side door, letting Ye Chaochao get in. Only after she was settled did he close her door and walk around to the driver’s side to get in.

Without asking too many questions, Ji Yanlin started the car and headed toward the apartment.

As they left the underground garage, Ye Chaochao noticed that Ji Yanlin was heading in the direction of his apartment. She pursed her lips and couldn’t help but mock, "Aren’t you taking me home?"

Ji Yanlin kept his eyes on the road and replied calmly, "I don’t feel comfortable with you going home."

"What’s there to be uncomfortable about? My brother is at home, and even if he’s at work, there are still maids to take care of me." Ye Chaochao continued.

Ji Yanlin stayed silent; he didn’t want to take Ye Chaochao back. Not being able to see her and know her real condition made him uneasy.

Beside him, Ye Chaochao pretended to casually glance at Ji Yanlin. Seeing his demeanor, she muttered under her breath, "Acting all serious."

Yesterday, Ji Yanlin had spoken with such righteousness, yet the truth was, over the past two years, she had spent more than a few nights at his place. Who’d believe nothing ever happened between them!

"Hmph!" Ye Chaochao snorted haughtily, then leaned back into her seat, careful not to move too much as her head was still feeling heavy.

Ji Yanlin drove on without saying anything, but the tips of his ears started to turn red bit by bit.

He knew exactly what Ye Chaochao’s sarcastic remarks meant.

Back at the apartment, Ye Chaochao sat down on the couch, and Ji Yanlin asked, "Want to go to the bedroom to rest?"

Ye Chaochao instinctively shook her head but immediately felt dizzy from the motion. Frowning, she steadied herself, "No need."

It was exactly because she’d been lying idle in the hospital bed, unable to do anything, that she insisted on coming home to recover.

"Then sit properly and don’t move around." Ji Yanlin followed the doctor’s instructions closely.

"Got it." Ye Chaochao responded, picking up her phone to check her messages.

When Ye Chaochao saw her parents posting photos from their trip in the family group chat, she realized her brother hadn’t told them about her car accident.

Thinking of this, Ye Chaochao said to Ji Yanlin, "Don’t let Uncle and Auntie know about my situation, or my parents will definitely find out."

"Okay." Ji Yanlin hesitated for a moment but ultimately agreed.

Ye Chaochao continued to sit on the couch, and Ji Yanlin brought her some fruit. She nestled into the fruit platter, watching a show and nibbling on the fruit.

All the while, she was cautious, avoiding any sudden movements. Ji Yanlin stayed close, ready to pass her anything she needed, be it water or tissue, immediately.

When one episode ended, Ye Chaochao shifted her legs slightly, prompting Ji Yanlin to quickly ask, "Do you need something? I’ll get it for you!"

Ye Chaochao paused, then looked up at Ji Yanlin who was staring at her intently. Her expression turned somewhat indescribable.

After a brief silence, Ye Chaochao said, "I need to go to the bathroom, how do you plan to help me with that?"
