Chapter 1320: Zhong Lizhen is sick

One day

Three days

Five days

One week passed in a flash.

PLA General Hospital opposite Wukesong Arena.

Sun Kais condition stabilized, and he was transferred here. Dong Xuebing, Xie Jing, and Sun Kais family were there. Sun Kais ward was prepared and sent there when he arrived in an ambulance. It was a single-person ward.

Inside the ward.

Everyone was in the ward.

But Dong Xuebing was the center of attention.

Xie Jing asked. When is your flight, Brother-in-law?This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

Tomorrow. I bought the ticket. Dong Xuebing smiled. Xiao Kai is fine, and I should leave. My unit is rushing me.

Sun Kais mother held Dong Xuebings hand gratefully. Thank you, Xiao Dong.

Sun Kais father added. Yes. You stayed with Xiao Kai at the hospital and did not rest well. You would rush down from home in the middle of the night when we called. We

Dong Xuebing replied. You had thanked me several times. Dont say these.

Sun Kais eyes turned red as he looked at Dong Xuebing. Thanks, Brother Dong.

Dong Xuebing waved his hand. Its nothing. Rest well.

Sun Kai nodded. I had troubled you these few days.

Haha All right. I got to go back and pack my luggage. Dong Xuebing does not need to monitor Sun Kai after the latter was transferred to this hospital.

Sun Kai quickly said. Mum, Dad, Sis, help me send Brother Dong.

Sun Kais parents, sister, and brother-in-law walked out with Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing told them not to walk him, but they refused.

Morning.

After 10 am.

Dong Xuebing drove an Audi A4, which he borrowed from his mother-in-law's home. He tidied his house and packed his luggage.

All his matters in Beijing were settled.

Dong Xuebing felt relaxed.

He sat on the couch with a cigarette between his lips. He remembered Huilans reminder to ask him to contact her family more and called her uncles and aunts. He told them he was leaving and chatted with them. He called her parents home last.

Ring ring ring

Han Jing answered. Hello?

Mum, its me. Xiao Bing. Dong Xuebing said. Xiao Suns condition has stabilized, and I am returning to the county tomorrow. Theres an important Party Committee meeting.

Did you book your ticket?

Yes.

All right. Come back more often.

Sure. I will return when I get the chance. Oh, the car you lent me. I will drive over now since I got nothing on today.

You are not busy today?

I am free. Whats wrong?

She looked pale and tired. Dong Xuebing felt terrible for her and said. I heard you are sick. My Mum asked me to visit you.

Zhong Lizhen opened the gate and let Dong Xuebing enter. Come in.

Ok. Dong Xuebing entered the apartment and looked around. He was shocked by what he saw.

A woman

A beautiful middle-aged woman

Dong Xuebing thought her house should be clean and homely. But Zhong Lizhens apartment did not look like a home. This is a two or three-bedroom apartment. It was big, and some unknown devices and five PCs were placed in the living room. One bedroom door was opened, and he saw a bigger PC inside. The only devices he recognized were PCs and servers. Although a computer science graduate, he could not recognize most flashing and beeping devices.

Damn

What the hell is this?

Is this a home or a small research center?

Even the wooden floor was covered with A4 documents and small spare parts. The coffee table was full of test tubes.

The apartment was full of machines and had a metal smell.

Dong Xuebing could not stand it and opened the windows for her.

I am speechless about you. Dong Xuebing said.

Zhong Lizhen frowned. Why did you open the windows?

Dong Xuebing replied. Didnt you smell it? You got flu and fever. You must air your apartment. Ah I dont know what to say. Why is your home like this?

Whats wrong?

Why is it full of machines?

Zhong Lizhen sat in front of a PC and started typing. She did not stop working. How do you think a researchers home looks like? Its all about the same. I will not serve you. Get yourself a glass of water. I got work to do. Its needed urgently tomorrow. She paused for a while and continued typing. You dont need to come. I am fine.

Dong Xuebing said. I am not surprised you fall sick, living in such conditions. This is too messy and full of radiation. How can your body take it?

Zhong Lizhen replied. I am used to it.

You should not do this. Let me clean up for you first. I will boil vinegar to clear the smell. Dong Xuebing was about to move a device next to him to create room.

Zhong Lizhens face changed. Dont touch it!

Dong Xuebing stopped. Why?

Zhong Lizhen saw Dong Xuebing did not touch her devices and said. Dont touch any devices you see in my house. They are critical. Any damages will affect my data.

I will be careful.

No!

Then let me take your temperature.

I am not running a fever. I dont need it.

You need to take medicine. I brought them with me.

I am not taking them. I have not finished my work.

Taking medicine only takes a few seconds. It will not affect you.

Leave me alone. I can take care of myself.

Dong Xuebing knew Professor Zhong was stubborn. He was slightly pissed when she refused to listen to him. He walked over and closed her laptop.

Zhong Lizhens face changed. What are you doing?

Dong Xuebing bent down and carried her to the bedroom. You must rest now. Theres no negotiation.
