Chapter 247: Chapter 244 Chu Bailian Deals with Xu Xiaobailian

"What’s there to think about?" Qin Zhao snorted, "Auntie just got out of the hospital recently. I’m worried she’s not accustomed to living alone. What’s wrong with staying with her for a few days?"

"There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s only proper."

Chu Yan wore a look of agreement, as if saying you’re absolutely right, but then he let out a long sigh.

"So, have you stayed enough?"

"Pretty much."

Ling Yi said Chu Yan’s injuries weren’t very serious, although he had broken his left hand, it was the kind that would heal with half a month’s rest. The other driver, however, was in a more serious condition.

The two cars collided, mainly due to the fault of the other car, so Chu Yan didn’t have to take any responsibility. Instead, that car had violated the rules and hit him, possibly even owing him compensation for medical expenses.

Three days after the surgery, Chu Yan was able to be discharged.

He wanted to go home to recuperate.

The hospital’s duties were temporarily taken over by Ling Yi, since he couldn’t perform surgeries for half a month, luckily, all the surgeries previously booked with Chu Yan weren’t too difficult.

It would take at least half a month for him to fully recover, according to the hospital’s diagnosis.

Chu Yan strangely felt that the injury on his hand would heal quickly, not sure if it was just his illusion.

Qin Zhao had been taking care of him in the hospital these past few days.

On the day of discharge, Qin Zhao was handling the paperwork and was about to return to the ward.

From a distance, she saw Xu Zhiwei standing at the door.

Xu Zhiwei was about to enter when Qin Zhao approached her, "Miss Xu, is there something you need?"

"I heard Dr. Chu was in a car accident, and I specifically came to see him."

Before Qin Zhao could respond, Xu Zhiwei bypassed her and went straight into the ward, completely ignoring Qin Zhao’s consent, not even considering her.

Qin Zhao hadn’t intended to refuse, after all, catching a glimpse of Chu Yan wouldn’t hurt.

But Xu Zhiwei’s seemingly fragile but arrogantly proud demeanor, her unmistakable concern and care for Chu Yan that she didn’t try to hide, was particularly annoying.

"Dr. Chu, how did you get so seriously injured?"

From inside the room came Xu Zhiwei’s exclamations. When Qin Zhao entered, she saw Xu Zhiwei with tear-stained cheeks, her eyes red as if she was about to faint from worry the next second.

She was even more of an actress than Chu Yan, the white lotus!

Chu Yan showed no reaction to Xu Zhiwei’s emotions, replying indifferently instead, "Is it really that serious? I don’t even feel it’s that severe, Miss Xu is perhaps exaggerating a bit."

He completely forgot how, upon seeing Qin Zhao that day, he talked about his pain and sorrow so grievously, how he needed Qin Zhao’s kisses before sleep or he’d have nightmares.

"Your arm’s broken, isn’t that serious?"

Xu Zhiwei expressed her immense concern, "Could there be any lingering effects? Dr. Chu, you’re such an outstanding doctor, how could you hurt your hand?"

"There might be slight impact,"

Chu Yan responded calmly, "So Miss Xu, if you feel unwell in the future, just consult Ling Yi, there’s no need to contact me. I plan to take a break for some time and won’t take any more cases at the hospital."

Xu Zhiwei’s face changed color, "How long do you plan to rest?"

"Until the injury on my hand heals, and then I need to reorganize my wedding with my wife. After the wedding, my wife wishes to go on a honeymoon trip, so it will probably be a long time before I return to the hospital."

Chu Yan knew Xu Zhiwei’s thoughts towards him; this statement was like a continual barrage.

Xu Zhiwei’s complexion turned deathly pale, as though she were gravely ill.

"A honeymoon trip..."

She murmured under her breath, her fingertips digging into her palm, her body trembling slightly.

Barely containing the jealousy simmering in her heart.

"Zhaozhao, leave that thing there, I’ll carry it."

Zhaozhao followed Chu Yan’s gaze and saw Qin Zhao dragging a suitcase, ready to take it to the car.

"Oh." Qin Zhao put down the suitcase and looked around, "Then what should I do?"

They were preparing to go home, so they needed to take things from the hospital back with them.

Initially expecting to be hospitalized for half a month, Qin Zhao had brought a suitcase filled with Chu Yan’s clothes and daily necessities the day before yesterday. Unexpectedly, they got to return so soon.

"Are the discharge procedures done yet?"

"They are done," she answered.

Chu Yan was still wearing a hospital gown, "Then come over and help me change," he said, then turned to Xu Zhiwei, "Miss Xu, please leave for a moment."

Xu Zhiwei’s expression stiffened, and she could only grit her teeth and say, "I’ll leave first." Reaching the door, she reluctantly turned to Qin Zhao, "Miss Qin, I have something to tell you, can you come out for a moment?"

Qin Zhao cooperatively came to the entrance of the ward, and the two stood outside.

"What is it?"

She actually wanted to see what Xu Zhiwei could possibly have to say.

Xu Zhiwei smiled, "As the best doctor in the Imperial Capital First District Hospital, Dr. Chu taking even half a month off would cause many patients to miss their chance at recovery, let alone if he took off more time.

Miss Qin, a honeymoon trip is just two people together doing boring things, wasting a lot of time. Instead of that, it would be better for Dr. Chu to come back to work earlier.

That way, he can save more lives, wouldn’t that be more meaningful?"

Her implication was clear, if you were sensible, you should persuade Chu Yan not to go on the trip but to come back to work.

Qin Zhao rolled her eyes internally. Just because Chu Yan is capable, does that mean he shouldn’t rest and must work in the hospital every day? Capitalists aren’t even as exploitative as you!

"Miss Xu, may I ask what you do for a living?"

Qin Zhao dodged the topic and countered with a question.

"My health is poor, so I am currently resting at home."

"So according to Miss Xu, doesn’t your lifestyle seem extremely boring and meaningless? Why not find something meaningful to do?"

Xu Zhiwei’s expression stiffened, and Qin Zhao added, "How is your lifestyle any different from wasting time? If I were you, I’d rather be dead by now.

Of course, I mean no offense. Life’s meaning can’t be measured by others, it’s all about what you think yourself. If you think your current situation is the most comfortable, wasting time might not be so bad."

"I’m not as capable as Dr. Chu, I’ve been in poor health since I was young. I would also like to do something meaningful, but I am powerless. Miss Qin, why must you belittle me?"

Qin Zhao’s previously friendly expression turned cold as she looked at her sharply, "Did I belittle you? I only spoke the truth. Since you know your own limitations, don’t stand here giving unsolicited advice.

Xu Zhiwei, what right do you have to interfere in Chu Yan’s decisions?"

Since she had no shame, Qin Zhao didn’t feel the need to show her any face.

"You...!"

Xu Zhiwei’s breath hitched, and her body went limp.

Qin Zhao was startled, how did she swoon just from talking?

Just when she thought that, a shadow fell on her.

Chu Yan, standing by the door, suddenly pulled her into his arms.

"Quickly close your eyes!"

Hearing Chu Yan’s voice, Qin Zhao hurriedly closed her eyes and leaned into his embrace.

"Miss Xu!"

The nearby nurses saw Xu Zhiwei collapse and quickly rushed over.

Chu Yan told them, "My wife has fainted too, help my wife first!"

"??" The nurses had never seen Chu Yan so anxious; noticing his worried expression and urgent tone, they then saw Qin Zhao in his arms.

How come both of them had swooned??
