In the photo, Lu Heng was hugging a woman and smiling brightly at the camera. It was obvious that the woman was not Jiujiu.
Lu Heng instinctively wanted to say that the photo was taken a long time ago. However, the problem was that he had been together with Nan Su since their first year of university. The camera in his hand was obvious evidence. No matter how one looked at it, Lu Heng had cheated on Nan Su.
Lu Heng's lips moved. He wanted to explain himself, but he realized that he could not say a single word. In the end, Lu Heng pursed his lips and turned to leave.
Looking at Lu Heng's back view, Jiujiu's lips curled into a sarcastic smile. She turned and walked towards the emergency room.
However, no matter how strong Jiujiu's willpower was, Nan Su's body was exceptionally weak. Especially when she had a low fever for half a month, Nan Su's body was already riddled with holes. No matter how strong Jiujiu was, it was useless. Jiujiu walked to the emergency room and fell to the ground.
Before Jiujiu lost consciousness, she vaguely felt that she did not fall to the ground. Instead, she was caught by someone. However, Jiujiu did not see who that person was.
By the time Jiujiu woke up, it was already the next day.
She seemed to be staying in a single room. Her nose was filled with the strong smell of disinfectant. The sharp pain from the back of her hand made Jiujiu realize that she was on an IV drip. Jiujiu blinked and looked at the cold white ceiling above her. Then, she turned her head and saw a man.
The man looked to be in his mid-thirties. There were obvious wrinkles at the corner of his eyes. The man seemed to be taking a nap. When he heard Jiujiu's movements, he turned to look at Jiujiu. When he saw that Jiujiu was looking at him, his lips curled into a smile. His eyes were slightly red. He said in a low voice, "You're awake."
The man's voice was low and hoarse, with the maturity and steadiness of a mature man. It sounded as if he had said this to Jiujiu a thousand times. However, because of his appearance and temperament, it did not seem rude at all.
Jiujiu rubbed her eyes and looked at the drip that was almost gone. She said to the man, "Can you help me call the nurse?"
Jiujiu could help herself pull out the needle, but she had just woken up and did not have much strength, so she chose to call the nurse.
However, when the man heard Jiujiu ask him to help call the nurse, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he walked over to Jiujiu and quickly undid the tape holding the needle. He quickly pulled out the pillow for Jiujiu. Then, he pressed a hand soaked in iodine on the back of Jiujiu's hand to stop the bleeding.
The man's movements were exceptionally fast and smooth. He looked very professional. Jiujiu was stunned for a moment before she said, "You're a doctor?"
The man nodded and walked to the door. Then, Jiujiu saw him whisper a few words to a nurse. After a while, the nurse brought breakfast.
The man helped Jiujiu up, opened the small table, and placed the breakfast in front of Jiujiu. As he helped Jiujiu open the lid, he said, "How long have you had a fever?"
The man's attitude was particularly intimate, but his tone was like a doctor talking to a patient. For a moment, Jiujiu could not figure out what the man wanted.
However, she was indeed hungry, so Jiujiu took the spoon the man handed over. She drank the porridge and answered his question. "About half a month."
"I had someone prescribe you some fever medicine last night." After the man finished speaking, he suddenly reached out and touched Jiujiu's forehead. The man's palm was slightly cold. After a moment of contact with Jiujiu's forehead, he said, "The fever has gone down. You can be discharged after two more drips today. By the way, was the man who came with you last night your friend?"
The man pretended to ask this question without leaving a trace.
Jiujiu swallowed the porridge in her mouth and said expressionlessly, "No, he is my husband."
"Your husband?" When he heard Jiujiu say that Lu Heng was her husband, the man's face froze. After a moment, he said, "He left his sick wife in the hospital and left alone. Your husband is not good enough for you."
See, even someone who had just met Lu Heng felt that this piece of trash was not good enough for her. It was normal for Nan Su to feel indignant.
Jiujiu swallowed the porridge in her mouth and looked up at the man who was standing by her bed and looking down at her. She laughed softly and said, "Yes, he is not good enough for me. So, he is going to be my ex-husband soon. By the way, did you help me with the hospitalization procedures?"
"Yes." The man nodded and looked at Jiujiu. He said, "If you want to thank me, you can treat me to a meal. I am always free."
The man said the words that Jiujiu wanted to say first. The corners of Jiujiu's mouth twitched and she said strangely, "Didn't you say that you can't express your gratitude with words?"
"The reason why you can't express your gratitude with words is because that person doesn't want a reward, but I do. So, can you treat me to a meal?" After the man said this, he lowered his head and looked at Jiujiu with a faint smile. Even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes became gentle.
Jiujiu pursed her lips and laughed softly. "Okay, I will treat you to a meal when I am discharged. By the way, are you a doctor here?"
"Yes." The man nodded and raised his hand to touch Jiujiu's forehead again. He said, "Your fever has subsided. I'll get someone to cancel your drip in the afternoon. You can be discharged after one more night of observation. You can eat here first. I'll go and inform your attending doctor."
After the man finished speaking, he strode out. Jiujiu watched the man leave and the corners of her mouth curled up with interest.
By the time the man came back, Jiujiu had finished drinking the porridge and washed up.
Seeing that Jiujiu was ready, the man immediately looked at Jiujiu and said, "Can you treat me to a meal now?"
Jiujiu looked at the man's suit and the watch on his hand thoughtfully. After a moment, she said, "Sir, are you so good to everyone?"
Jiujiu looked at the man and said, "I mean, are you so warm to everyone who fainted because of illness?"
"Of course not." The man still had a faint smile on his face. He turned to look at Jiujiu and said in a low voice, "Because it is you, that is why I am so warm."
Jiujiu wanted to remind the man that they were just strangers, but she didn't expect the man to directly flirt with her. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Jiujiu didn't say anything, but the man didn't let her go. Instead, he looked into Jiujiu's eyes and continued to ask, "You said that you want a divorce, which means that you are now single. I don't know if you are interested in dating another person. If possible, can you give me priority?"
