Jiang Nanshu suddenly woke up with a painful twitch on the back of her hand.
She glanced and saw that the IV fluids were all in, starting to retract blood.
Xun Wu was sleeping in the chair.
With quick and ruthless precision, Jiang Nanshu pulled out the needle and then fiercely kicked Xun Wu, knocking him over.
“Damn, who ambushed me?”
“Xun Wu! You must wish I’d just die quickly, right?” Jiang Nanshu pressed down on the back of her hand, glaring at Xun Wu through gritted teeth.
Xun Wu looked guilty as he faced the furious Jiang Nanshu, awkwardly tugged at his lips, “Boss, I just closed my eyes for a moment, I thought it was going to be another half hour…How did it finish so quickly?
Jiang Nanshu expressionlessly said, “Handle my discharge.”
Xun Wu, “No way, boss, the doctor said you need to take the IV for three more days.”
Jiang Nanshu gave him a look.
Xun Wu, “…”
He really had had enough, no one could really handle her, could they!
“Nannan! You can’t be so reckless, you need proper treatment when you’re ill.”
The angry voice of Xu Yun rose.
Xun Wu instantly sighed in relief.
Saved.
He truly hoped Jiang Nan would take good care of her health.
Jiang Nan looked up to see Xu Yun’s eyes glaring at her.
Jiang Nanshu, “…”
She glanced at Xun Wu; he was whistling and turning his head away pretending not to see her.
Great!
Confirmed.
It was Xun Wu who had called Xu Yun.
Xu Yun also brought some fruit, placing it on the bedside table next to Jiang Nanshu, “Take care of your health first, no running around.”
“I need to make money… Sister Xu Yun.”
“You can’t ignore your health just to make money, Nannan. Have you forgotten what you promised me when you were discharged last time?”
Jiang Nanshu thought carefully and asked, “Did you tell me not to fight?”
Xu Yun huffed, “I told you to take care of yourself, it’s not just about fighting! Anyway, you must get proper treatment. You can only be discharged when you’ve fully recovered.”
Because Xu Yun was watching.
Jiang Nanshu was forced to stay in the hospital for three days, only returning to work at the company once she had fully recovered.
Xu Yun helped Jiang Nanshu pack up her remaining things, preparing to leave, when a doctor came in.
“Has Jiang Nanshu been discharged?”
Xu Yun was slightly stunned and straightened up, “Yes, she had urgent business at her company and just left.”
“Doctor, what is it?”
“Are you related to Jiang Nanshu?”
Xu Yun told a small lie, “I’m her sister, tell me what it is.”
Hearing that she was a family member of Jiang Nanshu, the doctor showed Xu Yun the medical report, “This is Jiang Nanshu’s full-body medical report. We found a small shadow in her lungs. Please let her know to come back to the hospital for further examination.”
Xu Yun’s face turned pale instantly, “What, a shadow in the lungs? What does that mean?”
The doctor sighed and glanced at her, “Just prepare the patient mentally.”
“Is it cancer?” Xu Yun pressed.
The doctor’s eyes were filled with sympathy, “We can’t rule out that possibility, the young girl is only twenty-four years old, quite young. She needs to come to the hospital for an examination. The sooner the checkup, the sooner she can be treated.”
Xu Yun could hardly believe it.
After the doctor left, she collapsed powerless onto the bed, tears streaming down her face.
Jiang Nanshu had just begun a new life, how could fate be so cruel to her.
In fact, when Jiang Nanshu first entered the psychiatric hospital, she was very sullen. Difficult to get along with, she was isolated by the people there; she didn’t care and always sat in the corner. If someone came to provoke her, she would pin them down and beat them to death, for which she was heavily sedated many times.
Xu Yun, seeing her lonely and pitiful, had tried to strike up a conversation.
She thought she might also get beaten by Jiang Nanshu and had mentally prepared herself, deciding she couldn’t blame Jiang Nanshu if it happened.
But she was surprised.
When Jiang Nanshu was normal, she wasn’t crazy, just not fond of talking, and her temperament was fairly good.
She wasn’t as terrifying as the nurses had said.
Because Xu Yun wasn’t afraid of Jiang Nanshu, the old director assigned her to watch over Jiang Nanshu, giving Xu Yun another excuse to be close to Jiang Nanshu.
Even if sometimes she was talking to herself because Jiang Nanshu wouldn’t respond, she still felt it was quite nice, at least someone was willing to listen to her talk.
She told Jiang Nanshu a lot, from her own family to the big cat in her house giving birth to kittens, and then she secretly told Jiang Nanshu that she liked a certain doctor at the hospital, who had accepted her affection, but unfortunately, he turned around and married someone else, leaving her heartbroken for a long time.
That’s when Jiang Nanshu looked at her strangely, “What’s there to be sad about? He’s just a scumbag. I see you’re troubled, let me out and I’ll kill him to vent your anger, how about that?”
At that moment, Xu Yun was frightened into silence.
Jiang Nanshu looked at her with a seriousness in her eyes.
Xu Yun, having pondered deeply, felt that the topic of her conversation was the problem.
Jiang Nanshu was already indifferent about relationships, and telling her such things only deepened her hatred for society.
So, Xu Yun brought her melodramatic novels she liked and sat by her bed every day reading to her, swearing to let her experience the most sincere emotions between people.
Jiang Nanshu went from being reluctant to occasionally looking at them when bored, even went ahead and read the spoilers to tease her, infuriating her to no end.
When she was angry, Jiang Nanshu would smile at her, and it was in those moments that Xu Yun felt Jiang Nanshu truly did have warmth, it’s just that no one was willing to understand her deeply.
Later, she took her to practice Tai Chi with the old director.
Her learning ability was so strong, she could pick up something after seeing it once.
While she was rather slow, messing up simple things, fortunately, Jiang Nanshu never despised her and would occasionally lend a hand to help her.
Xu Yun’s tears moistened the report she held in her hands.
She didn’t want Jiang Nanshu to be sick.
She grabbed her packed belongings and rushed straight to the company where Jiang Nanshu was.
When she arrived, Jiang Nanshu was in a meeting.
It was Xun Wu who received her.
“What are you here for? Aren’t you going to work at the hospital?”
“I took leave. I need to see Nannan, when will her meeting be over?”
Xun Wu checked the time, “It should be soon, I’ll take you to the office to wait.”
Xu Yun nodded, “Okay.”
Xun Wu looked at her again, Xu Yun’s ponytail was tied high, making her look youthful and lively, her delicate features expressed a gentle demeanor.
He cleared his throat, “Um… Xu Yun, have you watched any movies?”
Xu Yun looked at him puzzled, “I haven’t had time to watch movies.”
“Ah, I see… Well, you’ve been taking great care of my boss these days, and to thank you for your attentiveness, I’d like to invite you to watch a movie,” Xun Wu invited with a poker face.
“Ah?” Xu Yun looked at him a bit dazed, then smiled foolishly, “It’s okay, we’re all friends, no need to be so formal.”
Xun Wu “…”
He wasn’t giving up, “If you don’t like movies, we can go out for a meal, if it weren’t for you, my boss definitely wouldn’t have stayed in the hospital for three days, you’re a hero, I have to thank you.”
