“Why are you in such a hurry, Where? are you heading to?” Song Ling Xiao saw Ai Yan in front of her and asked in confusion.

“Xiao Qing had an accident. I received a call from the hospital, saying that she suddenly fainted on the road.” Ai Yan panicked, so she didn’t ask about the details. She overthink things and thought that the accident was very serious, scaring herself to tears.

When Song Ling Xiao heard that it was Xiao Qing who had gotten into an accident, he too did not remain calm. He hurriedly pulls Ai Yan to the parking lot to get the car.

When they arrived at the hospital, Ai Yan went to the ward. Song Ling Xiao first went to the doctor. He learned that Xiao Qing did get into a major accident and was then able to relax.

Xiao Qing’s grandfather found out that Xiao Qing had fainted and was also very worried. He did not believe what Xiao Qing said. he was afraid that his granddaughter did not tell the truth to himself, so after hanging up the call, he contacted Ai Yan. When Ai Yan confirmed that she was alright, did he believe that she was alright?

“He is abroad, I don’t want him to worry about me.”

“I know, so I told him you were fine.” Ai Yan sat by the hospital bed and peeled an orange for Xiao Qing. “He also said to contact Dr Wen for you, and I told him you could be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and he was relieved when I told him your check-up results showed that you are physically fine.” She handed the peeled orange to Xiao Qing.

Ai Yan looked at the phone and decided to let Xiao Qing rest for a while. She went out to buy some food.

Outside the hospital room.

“Are you alright?” Song Ling Xiao stood at the door with a pale face. Ai Yan looked at his haggard appearance and asked worriedly.

He shook his head: “I’m fine, just take care of her. Don’t tell her about me, and also don’t mention that I came.”

Song Ling Xiao wanted to peek inside but was afraid of being discovered by Xiao Qing, so he decided not to.

Ai Yan wanted to say something and finally said, “Then you take care of yourself. If anything happens, do keep us updated.”

Song Ling Xiao looked like he was very tired. He did not even speak. He simply nodded, and then slowly walked away.

Why? Ai Yan could not understand. Why not let her know? Then what’s the point of doing so much? What about the competition two days later, would he participate as promised? “What are you thinking about?” Ai Yan whispered to herself.

She glanced back at Xiao Qing on the hospital bed and saw that she was playing with her phone, so she left without worry.

After a long time, Ai Yan came back with a bowl of congee for Xiao Qing. She was embarrassed and said, “I didn’t know what you should avoid eating now, so I went around for half a day and bought a bowl of congee for you. You eat some first, and when you’re discharged from the hospital, I’ll treat you to a delicious meal.”

“I’m not very hungry now, I just want to hurry home, I don’t want to stay here.”

“This is already the best ward in the hospital.” Ai Yan thought Xiao Qing dislike this place.

“I’m not saying that this place is not good; if I disliked it, I would have agreed for Grandpa to contact Dr Wen.” She knew that the money for her hospitalisation was paid with Ai Yan’s help. Although she was a friend, their family situation was different. There was no reason to let her friend spend money and get complaints.

“Then take another day off, anyway, there is nothing scheduled for today, the competition is the day after tomorrow. Oh right, are you still going to the competition?” Ai Yan suddenly recalled this matter.

“I want to go.” Xiao Qing answered her firmly.

“Well …… or don’t participate in the competition. It was just a joke; why take it so seriously? Maybe Song Ling Xiao has forgotten about it and took it as a casual remark?” Ai Yan wanted to convince Xiao Qing first and then look for Song Ling Xiao. This way, the competition can be cancelled and everyone will be safe.

But Xiao Qing was very stubborn and would never break her promise, “Even if Song Ling Xiao doesn’t go, I still have to go.”

Seeing Xiao Qing behaving this way, Ai Yan had nothing further to say. She said she was sleepy and wanted to rest for a while. Xiao Qing told her to go home, and she said it was okay. She would rest on the sofa for a while, after all, she had walked too much today.

Ai Yan sat down on the sofa and fell asleep, probably because she was too tired. Xiao Qing lowered her eyes, she didn’t know the meaning of the words Ai Yan just said. She only thought about the game the day after tomorrow. Whether Song Ling Xiao goes or not, she will wait for him in the piano room. Xiao Qing would not let go of any opportunity to meet with Song Ling Xiao. She was shocked by her current madness.

Instead, a positive moment appeared in Ai Yan’s dream, and it was a moment where she had an encounter with him. Could it be love at first sight? How could an ugly event happen to Ai Yan?
