They took the elevator upstairs and soon arrived at An Xin's ward. Lin Feng had been here twice yesterday and this morning, so he was familiar with the situation in the ICU. Ceng Rui and Tang Bingyao spent a lot of time looking around the ward. Tang Bingyao and Ceng Rui spent a lot of time looking around the entire ward.
An Xin couldn't help but laugh. "Alright, look at you guys.
You don't look like you're here to visit a patient. You look more like the police searching a criminal's lair. "
Tang Bingyao and Ceng Rui continued to observe the ward for a while. In the end, Tang Tang nodded in satisfaction. At least the environment of the ward was not bad. It was spacious, bright, and clean. Moreover, they could see the scenery of the courtyard from the window, so it wasn't too stuffy.
Ceng Rui also nodded in agreement and commented,
"It's a lot better than the hospitals in China."
"It's quiet and clean," Lin Feng chimed in.
Lin Feng interrupted from the side, "It's actually not that bad in China. There are special care VIP wards and whatnot, but the prices are a little higher."
Ceng Rui shook his head. "Even if you can afford it, you might not be able to stay in one of those VIP rooms. There's just too many people in China."
As he spoke, he looked around the ward again.
"At least I can rest in peace here."
Lin Feng smacked his lips. "Sigh, I don't think I'll be staying here for long. Steamed Bun's surgery went smoothly anyway. I'll be discharged after a while. No matter how good a room is, it's still a room. Staying in a hospital for a year or so is going to be too comfortable."
It was just a casual remark from a certain someone.
However, Tang Bingyao and Ceng Rui, who knew the truth, couldn't help but feel their eyelids twitch. They subconsciously glanced at the young girl beside the bed.
On the other hand, An Xin, who was sitting on the sickbed, didn't seem to have any change in her expression. When she heard someone's comment, she smiled and echoed,
"Yeah."
"How can I stay here forever? I'll get a few more checkups in a few days, and I should be able to leave.
Besides, I can't afford to stay in a room like this every day, right? "
Tang Bingyao stuck out her tongue, looking like she was worried about the money.
Tang Bingyao couldn't help but feel anxious. She interrupted.
"It's okay."
"I-I still have money saved up. Steamed Bun, if you don't have enough money, I can give you some. You need to stay in the hospital and rest well!"
The girl took her best friend's casual joke seriously, and the moment she said it, the other three could not help but be stunned. Ceng Rui was the first to react, and he quickly smiled to smooth things over.
"Hey, Tang Tang, don't worry. Steamed Bun is just joking. Didn't he just say that he can be discharged after one or two more checkups after the surgery?"
An Xin came back to her senses and pulled Tang Bingyao's hand over to sit beside her. She rubbed Tang Bingyao's head affectionately. "It's okay. My Tang Tang just cares about me. Don't worry. If I don't have enough money, I'll definitely ask you for help."
Only then did Tang Bingyao realize that she had almost said something wrong. She lowered her head and blushed, not daring to raise it again.
The atmosphere in the ward became a little strange.
Fortunately, Lin Feng didn't notice anything amiss. He listened to their conversation and excitedly interjected, "What's going on?
"Hey, but seriously, Tang Tang has been very frugal ever since high school."
"All of her pocket money and the prize money we got from all the tournaments we fought. Oh, and the extra money she earned from helping others. If she didn't spend all of it, she'd definitely be a rich woman ~"
Someone said this in high spirits.
But in the next second, Tang Bingyao glanced at him.
"So?"
Huh?
Lin Feng was dumbfounded. An Xin narrowed her beautiful eyes. "Tang Tang's money is her own. Why are you calculating it so clearly? Are you trying to take advantage of her? Are you trying to bully her again? Huh? "
An Xin was dumbfounded. Then, he immediately cried out, "I didn't! I was just saying it casually, okay? — — "
"You really didn't mean anything else?"
"I didn't!" An Xin almost swore to the heavens.
An Xin was a little satisfied, but she still snorted. "That's more like it. Don't let me find out that you're thinking of something else, or else … hmph." As he spoke, he pulled Tang Bingyao into his arms and gave her a threatening look.
Lin Feng: "…"
Ceng Rui couldn't help but sympathize with An Xin. This guy … really only in front of Steamed Bun would he be completely subdued.
After staying in the ward for a while and chatting for a while, Ceng Rui and Tang Bingyao got up and prepared to leave after discussing that everyone could go out and continue to stroll around Manchester City's itinerary tomorrow and confirming that they were going to watch the world finals together.
"It's getting late. You should get some rest too, Steamed Bun."
"You've worked hard, coming all the way to the station to pick us up today."
Tang Bingyao gave An Xin another hug before getting up. "Take care of yourself, Steamed Bun. Sleep early. I'll see you tomorrow."
Ceng Rui turned to Lin Feng.
"What about you, Lin Feng?"
"Are you coming with us?"
Tang Bingyao also remembered and looked at Lin Feng. "By the way, where are you staying? Are you staying in the same hotel as us?"
Lin Feng was stunned. He scratched his head.
"Oh … I came with Sis Mo Sheng yesterday. We're staying in a hotel in the city."
"But it's only for one night. I haven't booked a room for today."
He had spent the entire day strolling around the city with Anxin and playing ranked games in the internet cafe. He didn't remember that he had to deal with the problem of his accommodation tonight.
"In that case, why don't you stay in our hotel too? It's more convenient." Ceng Rui suggested, "Besides, I have just booked a hotel room. There should be other vacant rooms. Anyway, I have booked two rooms. Tang Tang can live in one room, and you and I can live in the other room. We just need to ask the front desk to change the king-sized room into a standard room."
Tang Bingyao nodded. "Well, Lin Feng, come stay here too."
It was indeed a very suitable choice.
Lin Feng thought for a moment and nodded. "That's fine, but I have to ask Sis Mo Sheng what her arrangements are first."
After all, the two of them came here together and booked a hotel together yesterday. They couldn't just change places and leave each other behind. That would be unreasonable.
So, Lin Feng took out his phone and opened WeChat. He found Mo Sheng's chat window and dialed her number. The call quickly connected. Mo Sheng's voice came through.
"Hey, Lin Feng, what's up?"
Lin Feng hurriedly explained the situation to Mo Sheng. As soon as he finished, Mo Sheng laughed.
"Oh, what a coincidence. I was just about to talk to you."
"We booked a hotel for one night last night. When Ah Xue and I came out this morning, she already asked me to stay with her. It's the hotel next to St. Edinum Hospital. I'll share a room with her. Besides, she's already booked an extra room for you here."
Su Xue's scolding voice came through the phone again.
"Damn brat, I knew you were a forgetful person. It's too late for you to realize it. I've already booked a room for you. The room card is with me. I just finished shopping with Sis Mo Sheng and I'll be heading back to the hospital soon. You guys just have to wait there. Oh right, Little Zeng and Tang Tang are there too. We haven't seen each other in a while. Why don't we go for supper later?"
