Chapter 121 - Changqing Laid In His Embrace

He really couldn’t understand how women like Yu Sihe could exist on this earth. He had already rejected her so blatantly, but she was still so thick-skinned.

In the suite, someone sang an upbeat rock song and the loud music made Changqing’s head hurt even more. She felt increasingly uncomfortable. Her chest felt stuffy and she was dizzy. She was initially sitting a little stiffly but afterwards, she grew limp and later on, her posture was increasingly lazy. In the end, she laid on Song Chuyi’s chest unknowingly.

The moment her limp body fell in his embrace, Song Chuyi was stupefied for a few seconds before he lowered his head. Changqing was laying on the side of her head. Her eyelashes were like small fans and her soft and silky hair was spread all over his chest. She was wearing the latest Givenchy tasselled short skirt and she was wearing a sleeveless, silk shirt. Her arms were long and fair, her waist slim and her chest full.

With such an extraordinarily beautiful person laying in his embrace, he would definitely be a gentleman if he could sit still and not harbor any wild thoughts.

Song Chuyi had never admitted to being a gentleman.

Especially since her body kept radiating heat towards him, he couldn’t help but undo a button on his shirt.

However, it didn’t seem to make things better.

The heat from her body increased.

Song Chuyi couldn’t help but touch her arm and he realized it was abnormally hot.

He finally realized that something seemed to have gone amiss. He beckoned Changxin over.

Changxin walked over with an ambiguous smile and said softly, “What’s the matter?”

“Your sister seems to be having a fever. Help me tell the others that I’m leaving with her first.” After he said his piece, Song Chuyi carried Changqing out of the suite.

“Aye, why did Chuyi leave without saying a word?” Everyone started to wonder.

Yu Sihe stomped her feet, unable to accept this fact. She stood up and said straight to Changxin, “Yan Changxin, when did your sister hook on to Chuyi? Do you believe that I’ll tell the reporters outside that instead of doing her job well as a host, she’s going around seducing people?”

“Watch your words. Let me tell you—Song Chuyi and my sister are legally married.” Even if she was the Hospital Director’s daughter, Changxin also had her temper.

“What? Chuyi is married to your sister already? That’s impossible.” The people in the suite started a commotion. Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. Only the Vice-Director recalled that previously, Chuyi personally talked to him about sending Changxin to Beijing for the internship and he suddenly understood why.

Yu Sihe’s expression looked worse than pork liver. “Why would Chuyi marry your sister? Stop trying to fool everyone.”

“The Song Family knows about this too,” Changxin said with a straight face, “Dr. Yu, you can always ask the people from the Song Family anytime.”

Yu Sihe was in a daze.

The Vice-Director stepped out to smooth things over. “Alright, alright, let’s each say one fewer word. Let’s sing, let’s sing.”

Everyone immediately turned around and those singing continued to sing while those drinking continued to drink.

Although this news shocked everyone that night, one of them was the Hospital Director’s daughter while the other was the sister-in-law of the future Hospital Director. It wasn’t good to offend either of them.

Song Chuyi had carried Changqing to the car before she finally reacted groggily. She tried her best to open her eyes and saw the man who was helping her buckle her seatbelt.

It wasn’t exceptionally spacious in the Audi A7. He was tall and when he bent over, he blocked out almost all the light that was entering Changqing’s eyes.

“Where… is this place?” Changqing asked weakly.

“Inside my car. I’ll take you to the hospital. All the clinics are closed at this time,” Song Chuyi said expressionlessly with a straight face.

“… Oh.” Changqing blinked and curled into the seat a little more. She felt horrible from head to toe.

She closed her eyes. Before, she had the intention of calling Song Chuyi after she caught a cold and got a fever. As a doctor, he definitely wouldn’t leave her alone. When the time came, she would act coquettishly to him and make him give up the thought of getting a divorce.

However, she really got a fever and she was in so much pain that she couldn’t care about anything else. She didn’t even have the strength to talk.

Song Chuyi saw how uncomfortable she looked and sped up involuntarily.

30 minutes later, at the hospital, he helped her towards the Emergency Room.

Changqing walked a few steps and pushed him away. She squatted by the side and started throwing up uncomfortably.

After throwing up, she felt a little more awake. She looked at the filth on the floor and then at Song Chuyi, who was watching by the side with his brows tightly knitted. She felt embarrassed.

Previously, she still wanted to gain his sympathy by pretending to be sick. Now, looking at herself, he probably would’ve already wanted to throw up. Would he blame her for being uncivilized, throwing up everywhere?

She explained with a stutter, “I felt too… too unwell. I couldn’t hold it in.”

“The cleaners will clean this up later. Let’s head up first.” Song Chuyi held her in his arms as they walked. Changqing simply pretended that her legs were limp and said weakly, “I have no strength.”

Song Chuyi didn’t say anything as he carried her in his arms.

Changqing laid her little face on his chest and examined his sharp jaw. The lines on his face were as smooth as flowing water and his arms were very strong. She didn’t have to worry about falling down at all.

The feeling of being carried when you were sick was awesome.

Changqing closed her eyes.

Song Chuyi carried her all the way to an empty bed in the Emergency Room.

A female doctor walked over and said, “Dr. Song, what’s wrong with her?”

“A little feverish. Go busy yourself; I can deal with her myself,” Song Chuyi said.

“Sure. Just tell the nurse if you need any medicine.” The female doctor went to busy herself with other matters after speaking to him.

Changqing opened her eyes into a slit weakly to look at him. “Are you sure you, a person who opens up brains, can treat a cold?”

“I worked in the Emergency Room for a year in the past. What is there to not know?” Song Chuyi went out for a while and brought back a thermometer to put under her armpit. He asked, “Where do you feel unwell? Falling sick in the middle of summer—you really are an oddball.”

Changqing pressed her lips together and stared at him. “It was because it was too hot today that caused me to catch a cold. Maybe it’s because… I caught heat stroke from filming under the sun yesterday, and on top of that, we played in the water for a very long time while recording the program. I feel weak from head to toe.”

“If you feel weak, how could you still go to KTV to have fun?” Song Chuyi’s eyebrows suddenly knitted together.

Changqing moved her lips. “It was a rare occasion for my sister to come back, so I wanted to spend more time with her.”

Song Chuyi chuckled. “I’m afraid your sister wouldn’t need the company of a lightbulb. She has your brother-in-law to keep her company.”

Changqing pouted her little mouth and whispered, “My head is spinning and I have no strength at all and I am thirsty—could you get me a cup of water?”

Song Chuyi pursed his thin lips into a line upon hearing that. However, when he saw her yellowish skin, he still got up.

The moment he left, Changqing started to feel groggy.

After Song Chuyi came back from buying water and took the thermometer out from under her armpit, he saw her fever had gone up to 38.2 degrees celsius.

He twisted the bottle cap open and helped her to some water.

Changqing’s mouth felt dry and she subconsciously opened her mouth wide to take gulps of water before she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Not long after, she felt a pain on the back of her hand. When she opened her eyes, he was sitting by the bed and her hand was on his thigh. There was a syringe poking into the back of her hand.

He stuck some tape on nimbly and Changqing muttered in a daze, “It’s good to have a husband who’s a doctor.”

No matter what illness it was, he could take care of it personally.

Her voice, as thin and weak as a mosquito, made Song Chuyi stop all his actions. He turned his head to watch her face that was scrunched up from being unwell and he sighed in his heart.

His long and big hands held her soft little head, placing it on the bed. Just as he was about to stand up, that small hand suddenly hooked lightly onto his pinky. Changqing didn’t open her eyes but her weak voice still travelled over. “Don’t go, I don’t want to stay here alone…”

He stared blankly at the pinky that was hooked and only started after a while: “I’m not leaving. I’ll sit right at the side.”

After midnight, Changxin and Lin Yiqin arrived at the hospital’s A&E.

After finding out the location of the patient brought in by Song Chuyi, she went over straightaway. At the entrance, both her and Lin Yiqin’s footsteps slowed down.

The door of the ward was gently pushed open and they saw Chuyi lying quietly in bed, on a drip. Song Chuyi was sitting in a chair, looking at his phone. When he heard their movements, he glanced over and stood up.

“How is she?” Changxin asked softly.

“It was heatstroke. Her fever hasn’t subsided.” Song Chuyi nodded at Lin Yiqin, which could be considered a greeting.

“This lass. She really doesn’t know how to take care of herself.” Changxin stroked Changqing’s forehead angrily. It was still quite hot. “How many bottles does she need?”

“Three.” Song Chuyi took a look at the time. “It might take up until two. You should head back first—I’ll be here.”

“Chuyi, it’s hard on you.” Changxin sighed. “This lass hasn’t been in the best of health ever since she was young. I got her to exercise but she was so lazy and normally, if she could sit, she would never stand. If you have the time, you should urge her to do more exercise. Do whatever it takes, whether it’s hitting or scolding her. She’s lazy.”

Song Chuyi raised his brows and said with a slight smile, “Are you sure I can hit her?”

Changxin let out a laugh. “It was just a joke. Okay, I’ll get going first. I feel reassured with you around.”

She left the ward with Lin Yiqin and sighed, saying, “I feel at ease seeing how much Song Chuyi cares for Changqing.”

Lin Yiqin stroked her head with a smile. “You two sisters are so dopey and cute; men can’t wait to dote on you.”

“How am I dopey?” Changxin glared at him. “If I’m so dopey, could I even have gotten a PhD now?”

“Yes, yes, yes, you’re good at studying.” Lin Yiqin quickly nodded to curry her favor.

“I’m going to the toilet. Help me hold my bag.” Changxin stuffed her bag into his hands and turned towards the toilet at the other end of the hospital.

In the women’s toilet, she had just stood up when she heard footsteps coming from outside.

“Aye, did you see the woman Dr. Song carried in tonight?” a woman suddenly asked.

Changxin guessed it might be some nurse on shift and a thought surfaced. She didn’t rush to flush the toilet.

“I saw her but I didn’t get a clear look,” another nurse said tiredly, “Anyway, Dr. Song has been in a lot of scandals lately. Didn’t we see him with Guan Ying earlier? After that, it was Yan Changqing and then there’s Dr. Yu. However, I think Guan Ying has the highest chance.”

“I think so too. I heard that during the time Guan Ying was hospitalized, Dr. Song went over practically every day and even took very good care of her mom. It seemed there was someone who caused trouble in Guan Ying’s ward and Dr. Song even brought the security officer over to teach him a lesson.”

“Then that means Dr. Yu has no chance at all.”

“Who in the hospital doesn’t know that Dr. Yu’s love was all one-sided?”

Changxin waited until both women left the toilet before she came out slowly from inside.
