"Alright!" Xiao Zhou felt as if he had been pardoned. "In that case, Sister-in-law, Brother Shen seems to have fallen asleep again. I'll hang up now."
"OK. Thank you for your hard work."
"You're welcome." Xiao Zhou hung up the phone in trepidation before heaving a huge sigh of relief.
Xiao Zhou returned the phone to Shen Zhilie with a pained expression and said, "Brother Shen, is it really okay to lie to Sister-in-law like that? I think it's better to tell her."
Shen Zhilie lay on the hospital bed. His eyes were squinted, and his face was extremely pale.
A soft tube was attached to his arm, and a transparent liquid was slowly being transferred into his body.
When he heard Xiao Zhou's words, Shen Zhilie opened his eyes and said, "It'll be even worse if I tell her. She'll be worried."
"But are you going to stay in the hospital just like that? With your injuries, you'll need to stay here for at least some time. It won't do if you don't have a woman to take care of you. "
"It's fine. Go back to work. I can take care of it myself."
Xiao Zhou panicked when he heard that. "What can you take care of? That's such a big wound, and you've lost so much blood. It's good enough that you're still alive. How are you going to survive? You might not even be able to use your arm for the rest of your life. If you don't take good care of it, we'll see who gets the short end of the stick in the future!"
"It's my bad luck to have such a patient." Shen Zhilie smiled bitterly as he looked at his arm, which had more than ten stitches. "Where's the woman?"
"Sigh. She's been sedated and locked up for the time being. But how did she end up like this all of a sudden? It can't be, Dr. Shen."
Shen Zhilie took a deep breath and said, "Get me some water."
Xiao Zhou pouted, but he had no choice but to obediently pour some water.
Shen Zhilie continued, "She said that I looked like her ex-boyfriend and wanted me to compensate her for the loss of her youth. She even told me to die with her. I'm so handsome, so how could I die with her? What a waste! So, I resolutely resisted. She had a mental breakdown. After she smashed the cup, she stabbed me several times with the shards."
Xiao Zhou was both angry and amused when he heard that. But when he looked at Shen Zhilie's hand, he couldn't bring himself to laugh. "You used your hand to block it?"
"Of course, if I didn't use my hands to block it, I would have either gone blind or had my throat slit. In any case, I would have ended up worse than this."
"Tsk …" Xiao Zhou expressed his sympathy. "A woman who has lost her mind isn't scary. The scariest thing is that this crazy woman is a Sanda fighter. Thank you, Mr. Shen."
"Well, where's the water?"
"Coming!"

Ye Qianqian didn't sleep well that night. When the alarm clock rang the next day, she had only slept for a few hours.
She got out of bed, washed up, and got ready to go to work. As soon as she got on the bus, she called Shen Zhilie.
Shen Zhilie didn't seem to be fully awake. It rang a few times before the call was answered.
"You're awake?" Shen Zhilie sounded sleepy.
When Ye Qianqian heard the voice, she yawned as well. "Yeah, I'm on the bus heading to the office. What time is your flight?"
"Ah, it's 12 o 'clock at noon. I have to arrive early."
"Alright, remember to drink some honey water or some hangover soup. Buy some plums before you board the plane. That way, you won't feel so uncomfortable."
"Yes."
"Alright, go to sleep. When will you be back?"
"In a few days. I'll call you when I'm back."
"Okay. Go to sleep."
"Okay …" Shen Zhilie replied in a low voice.
Just as Ye Qianqian was about to hang up, Shen Zhilie suddenly said, "Qianqian."
"Yes?"
"I love you."
