Chapter 1185: Chapter 1185: Long Time No See

Chu Liyuan and Li Jing spent the entire day settling the mine’s affairs before rushing back to the hospital…

“Husband, you’re finally here. I was nearly force-fed to death with their display of affection!” Xia Mengjiao hugged Li Jing as soon as she saw him.

“No worries, wife, your husband will surely avenge you!” he said, kissing Xia Mengjiao on her red lips.

“Uncle, is everything handled at the mine?”

“You better worry about yourself!”

“I’m already fine. Don’t believe me, look~” Jian Dan sat up and moved his arms around.

At that moment, the door to the hospital room opened, and a nurse entered, pushing an IV cart…

“Qian Zihao? Why are you here?” Xia Mengjiao spoke upon seeing who was pushing the cart. “Jian, I forgot to tell you, look who this is?” she asked, pointing at Qian Zihao.

“He is…” Jian Dan looked at the person before him. He felt very familiar but couldn’t recall who it was for a moment.

To prevent the atmosphere from becoming too awkward, Xia Mengjiao spoke again, “Qian Zihao, right? Our middle school classmate, remember him now?”

“Oh! I remember now. No wonder I didn’t recognize you. Didn’t you have yellow hair before?”

“Yeah! But I no longer dye my hair,” Qian Zihao said with a laugh.

As he spoke, he did not interrupt his work. In the midst of their conversation, he had finished preparing for the IV…

“So, you’re a nurse now?”

“That’s right!”

Qian Zihao tied the tourniquet around Jian Dan’s arm, disinfected the back of his hand, and then inserted the IV needle into Jian Dan’s vein…

“Your technique is really good, it doesn’t hurt at all!” Jian Dan exclaimed in surprise.

“It’s decent!” Qian Zihao said modestly.

“That’s amazing!”

“How do you feel? Not uncomfortable anymore, right?”

“Yes! Nothing’s wrong anymore!”

“Good to hear. I’m in charge of this ward now, so if you need anything, just call me!”

“Thanks!”

“It’s nothing, we are old classmates after all!”

After Qian Zihao left, Li Jing finally spoke up, “That guy just now is your middle school classmate?”

“Yep! What’s with that expression?”

“Do you need to be that enthusiastic about a middle school classmate?” Li Jing said, sounding somewhat jealous.

“All of them, this is my first time to find out that Li Jing can be so jealous!” Jian Dan commented, observing Li Jing’s reaction.

“I’m with Mr. Chu every day, so of course I am…”

“Influenced by his manners?” Jian Dan joked.

“What? It’s more like ‘One who stays near vermilion gets stained red!'” Li Jing quickly retorted.

“Oh~” Jian Dan intentionally drew out the tone as he looked towards Chu Liyuan.

“Aren’t such excellent traditions worth learning?” Chu Liyuan said quietly.

“Definitely worth it!” Li Jing chimed in on the side.

“Uncle, you’re so handsome, whatever you say is right!” Jian Dan also said with a laugh.

…

Finally, on the third day, Jian Dan was discharged from the hospital. His wounds had begun to scab over. Coincidentally, it was also Qian Zihao’s day off, so they decided to have a meal out together…

Sitting together in the restaurant, the five of them were gathered around, with Li Jing and Chu Liyuan’s gazes fixed on Qian Zihao, making him scratch his head.

“You know, the environment of the restaurant you picked is quite nice!” Xia Mengjiao started, trying to defuse the previous awkwardness.

“Yeah, yeah! I think it’s great too!” Jian Dan agreed.

“Jian Dan, you’ve just been discharged, it’s not good for you to eat too spicy or too oily. I chose this restaurant because the flavors are lighter, more suitable for you!”

“You’ve been so thoughtful, thank you!”

“It’s nothing! As a nurse, I naturally take these things into account!”

Jian Dan distinctly felt the chill emanating from uncle’s eyes. “Let’s order quickly, I’m starving!”

“What would you all like to eat?” Qian Zihao politely handed the menu to the ladies first.

“You’re more familiar with this place, you should order!” Jian Dan passed the menu back to Qian Zihao.

“Alright then! Does anyone have any dietary restrictions?”

“No.”

The meal went on, laden with an indescribable awkwardness…
