Chapter 379 - 372: What, Is My Dignity Worth Nothing?

In the hospital.
Zhou Jinyuan had just rested and came to check on the patient.
But there was no one in the ward.
Zhou Jinyuan asked the nurse, "Where is the person from ward 302?"
"Gone out."
"Discharged?"
"No, I heard them say something about going to find a boyfriend..."
Zhou Jinyuan’s brows lightly furrowed.
Boyfriend? Neither of them had a boyfriend?
Qingping Village.
Not long after Chen Xixi finished speaking, Han Qianyi quickly came to her senses and dragged her away.
While pulling Chen Xixi’s arm, Han Qianyi awkwardly laughed and said to the rescue team, "She’s delirious from the fever, spouting nonsense. Please don’t take her seriously, ha."
"I didn’t..."
Before Chen Xixi could finish her words, Han Qianyi quickly covered Chen Xixi’s mouth, and with a sudden burst of strength from who knows where, forcefully dragged Chen Xixi away.
After walking a bit further, Han Qianyi let go of Chen Xixi and frowned, "Have you lost your mind? You don’t even know which man you flirted with and you’re here looking for him? What if someone pretends to be him?"
If Chen Xixi hadn’t just recovered from her illness and hadn’t eaten yet, there’s no way Han Qianyi could’ve dragged her away so easily.
Chen Xixi said, "No, I can recognize the person’s voice."
She remembered the person’s voice, and it even sounded a bit familiar.
If that person spoke up, she was certain she could recognize it.
Han Qianyi, surprised, said, "Not only did you flirt last night, but you also offered yourself to him?"
Chen Xixi pursed her lips and nodded, "Mm..."
"Just because he saved you?"
Chen Xixi scratched her head, "Not really... just got carried away, you know, my head was really hot, I had a fever of forty degrees."
Whatever came to her mind, that’s what happened. She didn’t even know what she was thinking at the time. Maybe because of the atmosphere, she felt that if she didn’t offer herself, it would’ve lacked a certain mood.
After all, you only live once; if you don’t follow the trend, life is so boring.
If she could, she’d love to experience the trends of time travel or reincarnation; that would definitely be exciting.
After Chen Xixi said this, Han Qianyi seemed to understand.
Han Qianyi also tried to help Chen Xixi remember what the rescue members she met last night looked like, but she couldn’t recall a thing; it was too dark, plus she was terrified at the graveyard, so how could she bother noticing their appearance.
And those men were holding flashlights, and with her standing against the light, she couldn’t see their faces clearly.
After thinking for a while and still not remembering, Han Qianyi suddenly thought of someone else and sighed, "What about President Zhou then?"
She remembered that President Zhou was no simple admirer of Chen Xixi!
"President Zhou..." Chen Xixi suddenly paused, last night’s voice did sound a bit like... Zhou Jinyuan?
Impossible! How could Zhou Jinyuan be here, and even less likely to be a member of the rescue team!
So, the man must be part of the rescue team; it’s just that his voice was somewhat similar to Zhou Jinyuan’s.
Chen Xixi’s thoughts were a bit messy, and offhand she said, "First come, first served, I guess."
"It was clearly President Zhou who came first."
"Then let’s go with the latecomer takes precedence," Chen Xixi sighed, "In the end, I was the one who flirted with him, and even got to touch... Anyway, whatever the case, I must take full responsibility!"
She wondered if the man had ever had a girlfriend; if not, hadn’t she inadvertently robbed the young man of his innocence?
So she definitely had to take responsibility!
So as not to be called a playgirl.
She’s a really good person with moral integrity!
Han Qianyi asked gossipily, "Where did you touch?"
Chen Xixi’s face turned red before she whispered, "Just that bit in the front, I swear it wasn’t intentional. It was indeed too uncomfortable at the time."
Han Qianyi leaned in slightly with a mischievous smile, "So was it up or do... um?"
Chen Xixi gave her a look, "I’m not that sleazy, okay!"
"Not sleazy, just flirting with the young man."
Chen Xixi was rarely at a loss for words. No matter how she explained it, she had instigated it, and she was wrong - she admitted it.
Han Qianyi didn’t tease Chen Xixi further. She patted Chen Xixi’s arm, "Let’s go back first. It seems like they don’t recognize you. How about we head back and wait? If he’s interested, he’ll definitely come looking for you."
Chen Xixi let Han Qianyi drag her along. They didn’t head back to the hospital right away but went to a porridge shop to eat first. Only after they were full did they return to the hospital.
As soon as she arrived in the ward, Chen Xixi saw an extra man in there.
At first, she thought she had entered the wrong room; she took a half step back, tilted her head to check the room number at the door, then stepped back into the ward.
The man was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, his tall and straight figure standing in front of the window, his back alone exuding an extraordinary temperament.
Han Qianyi tugged at Chen Xixi’s sleeve and made a gesture: I’m sneaking off.
At one glance, Han Qianyi recognized the man as President Zhou and sensed that Chen Xixi was about to face some heavy winds, so she decided to make herself scarce.
Chen Xixi: "???"
What did Han Qianyi mean?
Before Chen Xixi could say anything, Han Qianyi quickly slipped away and even closed the door behind her.
Chen Xixi, staring at the tightly shut door, frowned. Then, a man’s voice came from behind her, "Heard you went looking for your boyfriend?"
That voice! Wasn’t it the same one from last night!
Chen Xixi quickly turned around, met Zhou Jinyuan’s profound gaze, and immediately asked, "Was it you who carried me back last night?"
"Yep, and I also served as a hand warmer for someone all night."
"..."
"Don’t tell me you forgot again."
Chen Xixi raised her eyebrows and, after a few seconds, it dawned on her that when Zhou Jinyuan said "again," it probably referred to an incident in their childhood when she had forgotten him.
Then, after a few more seconds, it hit her how absurd her actions at the rescue team had been!!
Chen Xixi felt numb, "Why didn’t you come earlier? You made me lose face..."
Zhou Jinyuan chuckled, "Where did you lose it? Shall I help you find it?"
Chen Xixi gave up struggling and went straight to sit down by the bed, "Forget it, don’t bother."
If she were to go through it again, she might just lose herself entirely.
Looking at Chen Xixi’s nuanced expression and considering what the nurse said earlier, Zhou Jinyuan guessed with interest, "You didn’t go to the rescue team searching for the guy who saved you last night, did you?"
"..."
Chen Xixi didn’t feel like talking and even wanted to kick Zhou Jinyuan out.
Just because you can talk, just because you’re smart, just because you can guess!
So the dignity of this princess doesn’t matter, right?
Chen Xixi lay down on the hospital bed and covered herself from head to toe with the white blanket—time to hide from the world.
Give her ten seconds, and she would be brave again!
However, the moment she covered herself with the blanket, the door to the ward was pushed open.
Zheng He, seeing the person on the bed covered in a white cloth, couldn’t help but cry out in agony, "Chen Xixi, how could you just leave like this! Our grand plan has yet to be realized! How could you leave me all by myself! Waaaah... I’ve still come a step too late... didn’t get to see you for the last time..."
