Ling Hong shook his head, shook off his memories, and continued to talk to the unconscious Ruan Xiaoqing.
Ever since she was sent to the hospital, Ruan Xiaoqing had only woken up for a short period of time. Even so, Ling Hong kept her company and talked to her from time to time.
Not only that, Ling Hong also hired the best nurse to take care of Ruan Xiaoqing. After all, there were some things that he couldn't do at the moment, even though Ruan Xiaoqing was basically asleep.
Time passed quickly. Soon, it was afternoon. During this time, Ruan Xiaoqing didn't wake up.
However, Sharon and her husband would visit Ruan Xiaoqing and Ling Hong every day.
Magnon didn't talk much. He would pat Ling Hong's shoulder seriously while Sharon would give him a few words of encouragement.
As usual, after Sharon and her husband left, Ling Hong sat on Ruan Xiaoqing's bed and said softly, "Xiaoqing, you said that you never sleep late. It's been three days. It's time to wake up."
"Boss Yuan called me today. You know Boss Yuan's temper. If he says there's a new dish, then there's really a new dish. If you don't wake up, I'll go and try it myself," Ling Hong said carefully.
In fact, even Ling Hong himself didn't know that he also had the talent of being a chatterbox. In the past three days, he could talk to Ruan Xiaoqing, who was in a coma, for a long time.
In the middle of the afternoon, the sun shone in through the window on the west side, shining on the shiny tiles. The sunlight wasn't strong, but it was warm.
At this moment, Ruan Xiaoqing opened her eyes, "I think I'm hungry."
Ling Hong looked at Ruan Xiaoqing, who could speak in a soft voice. He was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say.
Ruan Xiaoqing smiled gently and moved the corners of her dry and pale lips. Only then did Ling Hong realize that he should feed her water.
"Wait, I'm pouring some warm water over there." Ling Hong immediately stood up and reached for the cup on the bedside table.
In fact, at this distance, he did not need to stand up. He could reach it by just turning his body sideways. However, Ling Hong got up in a somewhat confused manner, picked up the cup, sat down, and handed it to Ruan Xiaoqing, who had stretched out her hand.
"Wait." I'll raise the bed for you so that you can drink more water.
"Mm." Ruan Xiaoqing nodded lightly.
Ling Hong held the cup in one hand and reached for the button beside the bed with the other. He pressed it gently and the bed began to rise.
Only when Ruan Xiaoqing said that it was enough did Ling Hong let go and handed the cup over again.
After taking a few sips of water, Ruan Xiaoqing felt much better. She looked at Ling Hong and said, "Thank you for the past few days."
"Don't mention it. We are good friends," Ling Hong said generously. He paused for a moment before continuing, "And I have a purpose."
"I know, but thank you anyway." Ruan Xiaoqing looked at Ling Hong's expression and could not help but smile. She said again, "After all, someone has been telling me to hurry up and get to work to pay you back every day."
"Ahem, I'm not rushing you. I'm encouraging you." Ling Hong coughed unnaturally.
"I know. That's why I have to thank you." Ruan Xiaoqing smiled.
"You're welcome. Wait for me to call Dr. Herbert." Ling Hong shook his head. It was only then that he remembered to call the doctor, so he quickly said.
"Okay." Ruan Xiaoqing nodded.
This time, Ling Hong quickly walked out of the ward and strode toward Dr. Herbert.
Due to Ruan Xiaoqing's condition, Dr. Herbert had been staying in this private hospital for the past few days.
Therefore, Ling Hong went straight to his office and invited him over.
When he invited Dr. Herbert, Ling Hong completely forgot that there was a bell in the ward. If he pressed the bell, the medical staff would come over.
The experienced Ruan Xiaoqing did not remind him. She knew that Ling Hong needed some time alone to sort out his emotions.
After Dr. Herbert entered the ward, he began to diagnose Ruan Xiaoqing's physical condition. The detailed examination took about an hour.
During this period, Ling Hong stayed by Ruan Xiaoqing's side and did not leave. He stayed at a place where Ruan Xiaoqing could see him when she turned her head. This made Ruan Xiaoqing feel much more at ease.
After the examination, Dr. Herbert rushed to come up with a new treatment plan for Ruan Xiaoqing. Once again, only Ling Hong and Ruan Xiaoqing were left in the ward.
After three days of illness, Ruan Xiaoqing became even thinner. Even though she was injected with nutrients and glucose every day, she still lost weight.
The most obvious change was her delicate cheeks, which were smaller than usual, not to mention her thin and weak arms. This made Ling Hong anxious in his heart.
At this moment, Ruan Xiaoqing turned her body and gently changed into a slightly more comfortable position. She took the initiative to say, "Actually, I heard everything you said."
Ling Hong moved his gaze away from Ruan Xiaoqing's thin arms and looked into Ruan Xiaoqing's eyes. "Hmm?"
"I heard everything you said." Ruan Xiaoqing lowered her head slightly and avoided Ling Hong's gaze.
This made Ling Hong's heart ache. However, he still said, "What's your decision?"
"I'm sorry. I can't agree now," Ruan Xiaoqing said in a low voice.
"It's fine. I'm used to it. Anyway, failure is the mother of success. I'll succeed even if I'm late," Ling Hong said with a relaxed smile.
"It's not like that." Ruan Xiaoqing lowered her head and looked at the white ground. She continued, "I just don't want to agree now. I want to give you a more serious answer when I'm discharged."
When she said the last sentence, Ruan Xiaoqing raised her head and looked straight at Ling Hong.
"I feel that it's unfair for me to agree to you now. I want to wait until I'm discharged," Ruan Xiaoqing said frankly.
"In fact, I'm not at a disadvantage. You're a little fairy, and I'm a rich man in the eyes of the black beast. I'm the one who's taking advantage of you," Ling Hong said with a shrug.
"Pfft." Ruan Xiaoqing could not help but laugh.
"Am I right? So, don't think too much." When Ling Hong saw Ruan Xiaoqing laugh, he was relieved.
"Hmm, I'm not. I just want to be more formal." Ruan Xiaoqing's pale face was a little flushed, and she looked very beautiful.
"Okay, then you have to get well soon. The hospital fees here are very expensive. Someone should not have much food left," Ling Hong said with a smile.
"I know, I know. I'll work hard," Ruan Xiaoqing said.
"That's good." Ling Hong nodded in satisfaction and said, "But if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me immediately."
"Of course, Doctor Ling," Ruan Xiaoqing teased.
"I kind of regret not studying medicine." Ling Hong sighed a little helplessly.
"That's good." Ruan Xiaoqing shook her head.
"Hmm." Ling Hong nodded.
Both of them chatted like this. Because Ruan Xiaoqing was rarely honest, the atmosphere during the conversation was very good. Ling Hong was always a little cautious compared to the past.
But at this moment, Ling Hong's phone rang. When Ling Hong picked up the phone and was about to hang up, he hesitated when he saw the name displayed on the screen.
"You go and answer the phone. I'm going to take a nap," Ruan Xiaoqing said.
"Okay, then take a nap." Ling Hong nodded and took the phone out of the ward. He even carefully closed the door and walked to the stairwell as usual before he picked up the phone.
