Chapter 28 Blood and Scars
I was woken up by the nurse who came to change the IV. I opened my eyes and found that it was already daybreak. I yawned and stretched. Then I saw Hua Jingjing had woken up and was looking at me with complicated eyes.
I was delighted to see her awake, and asked her with a smile, "Are you awake? Do you feel better?" I used my palm to measure the temperature of her forehead and found that her body temperature had returned to normal.
Hua Jingjing didn't answer, but just closed her eyes and let me touch her.
I added, "It was really dangerous last night. You had a high fever and were unconscious. If you had been taken to the hospital a moment later, you might not have seen the sun this morning. It was really close!"
Hua Jingjing couldn't help but open her eyes and said, "Isn't this your fault? If it weren't for you, would I have to lie here?" I looked around the beds on both sides, luckily no one noticed us. I lowered my throat and said, "Miss, maybe you forgot? If it wasn't you lying here, it must be me. Maybe I'm not so lucky to be lying in the hospital. If you threw me to death in the wilderness, no one would know. At that time, you would be a murderer, and you would be sentenced to death if you were caught."
Hua Jingjing was really frightened after hearing this, but she still said stubbornly, "What murderer? Are you trying to scare me? I... I didn't expect that the laxative would be so serious. If I had known... Humph! I'm telling you, we are not done yet. Sooner or later, I will pay back all the insults I have suffered. Don't think that I will be grateful and forgive you just because you sent me to the hospital."
She was so angry that she trembled when she remembered how she had lost face in front of me last night. She simply turned around and ignored me. I was speechless. I almost broke my legs and spent all my money to save her this morning, but she still didn't thank me. Instead, she kept saying that she wanted to settle accounts with me. Why did I do this?
I sighed and said, "Okay, it's not too late to settle the score between us. Tell me your home phone number so I can notify your family and ask them to take care of you."
Hua Jingjing was shocked when she heard this. She turned around and said anxiously, "No, please don't tell my family, especially my father. If he finds out, I will be in trouble."
I asked curiously, "Why is that? Is your father so fierce? He didn't even dare to tell him that his daughter was sick and in the hospital? How can this be possible?"
Hua Jingjing said, "You know nothing! My dad is such a powerful man. It's useless for me to lie in front of him. How could I hide the reason why I was sick and hospitalized from him? If he knew that I was fooling around with you, he would definitely fire me as the deputy general manager. By then, you can forget about staying in the Green Lady Company. If he wants to fire you, it's just a matter of a word!"
I deliberately asked, "Who is your father? He's so awesome!"
Hua Jingjing stared with wide eyes, wondering, "I've explained it so clearly, but you still can't guess it? You are... really stupid! Don't you want to think about it, what is my last name?"
In fact, I had already guessed it in my heart, but I just wanted her to prove it in person. I said, "You are lying in the hospital now, and you can't go home or go to work for at least a day or two. Do you think you can hide it from your father? Isn't the result the same?"
Hua Jingjing said: "So we just need to make up a convincing reason so that the company and my family will think it's normal for me to be away for the past two days."
I laughed: "This is a difficult reason. Don't look at me. I can't make one up."
Hua Jingjing rolled her eyes at me and said, "I didn't count on you! Listen, just follow my instructions and do what I say."
"Why?"
"Because I'm a patient, and you made me sick! According to what you said, I almost died. You made me so miserable, shouldn't you take responsibility?"
"This... is your own fault. If you hadn't planned to harm me first, how could this have happened?"
"I don't care! Anyway, I'm the one lying in the hospital now, you have to help me do it, there's nothing to discuss. By the way, you reminded me that my plan is so confidential, how did you know it?"
I said, "I've already told you that if you don't want others to know, you better not do it yourself. Do you think your conspiracy is very secretive?"
Hua Jingjing was very smart and realized it immediately. She asked, "Did someone tell you about it? Who?"
I didn't answer, but just said, "Since you are a patient, I will help you once. What do you want me to do?"
Hua Jingjing sneered at me and said, "You don't want to tell me? It doesn't matter. I will find out sooner or later. The only people who know about this are me and Mr. Chen's people. Could it be..."
I found her guessing funny, but I didn't say anything. Hua Jingjing suspected for a while, but she thought it was too incomprehensible, so she stopped thinking about it. She said, "First, ask the doctor to change my ward. There are so many people here, and the conditions are so bad. I can't get used to it. I want the best single room. Go and get it first."
I smiled and said, "Miss, a single room is very expensive. I have used up all my savings to give you emergency treatment just now. I can no longer afford your hospitalization expenses. How about you pay for it yourself?"
Hua Jingjing snorted and said, "Of course. Otherwise, why would I rely on a poor guy like you? Where's my car? Go to the car and get my bag and my phone."
"Your car is still in the suburbs. I wonder if it's still there?"
"It must be still there. The car has the world's most advanced anti-theft system. No one can open my car door without my key." Hua Jingjing said as she took out the remote key from her trouser pocket and handed it to me. Then she said, "Can you help me transfer to the ward now?"
Ten minutes later, Hua Jingjing moved into the most luxurious single room in the hospital. Forty minutes later, I took a taxi to the outskirts of the city and found the Ferrari. I simply let the taxi tow the Ferrari back to the hospital slowly, and I paid three hundred yuan for it.
I opened the door of the Ferrari, found her handbag and cell phone, and returned to the luxurious ward.
I walked in and saw that Hua Jingjing was no longer on IV drip and was sitting on the bed in a daze with a strange look on her face. I handed her my phone and bag and said, "I've got your things."
Hua Jingjing hummed, reached out to take it, and said, "Close the door, I have something to tell you."
I said, "Just tell me, why are you closing the door?"
Hua Jingjing frowned and said, "Just turn it off when I told you to. Why are you nagging?"
I shrugged, turned around and closed the door, then turned back and waited for her to speak. Hua Jingjing said, "Why are you standing so far away? Come here, come to the bed." My heart skipped a beat, looking at Hua Jingqing with a strange expression, I had a bad feeling. I said, "No need, go ahead."
Hua Jingjing said stubbornly: "No, I must have you come over. I want to ask you something very private, but I can't say it out loud. You are a grown man, are you afraid that I can eat you?"
I couldn't stand her provocation, and even though I knew it was wrong, I still walked to the bed. Hua Jingjing waved her hand, motioning me to bend down.
I was alert and leaned down carefully, and then I saw Hua Jingjing raised her right hand and slapped me on the left side of my face. Even though I was prepared, I still couldn't avoid the slap, but I tilted my head and the slap was not very strong, but her four fingers of her right hand rubbed my face fiercely, and it was burning painful.
Feeling the pain, I became furious and couldn't control myself. I grabbed her by the collar, lifted her up from the bed, raised my right hand, and was ready to beat her up.
But I saw Hua Jingjing's eyes were tightly closed, her extremely weak body was panting due to the force just now, her face was pale, soft and weak. After a moment's hesitation, she didn't hit him.
Hua Jingjing opened her eyes and yelled, "Hit me! Beat me to death. I can't live anymore, so I might as well die!" I angrily said, "Are you crazy? You were fine just now, why are you so crazy now?"
Hua Jingjing said, "You know it well. I just went to the toilet and found that my... my back was covered with dried blood. It felt like bruises when I touched it. What did you do? You... you rascal!"
So that's what happened! I was both angry and amused, and said, "What do you think I did? I just cleaned your ass! Funny! What do you think of me?"
Hua Jingjing didn't believe it: "Impossible, I said it was always painful there, and I only found out it was full of blood and scars when I touched it. If you were just helping me wipe it... then, how could there be blood and scars?"
I sighed and said, "I used cigarette box paper to wipe your butt. The paper was too hard and I didn't know how to use enough force. I used too much force. Who knew your butt was so delicate that it would bleed if I touched it?"
Hua Jingjing showed a happy expression on her face and said, "Is it true? You really didn't do anything else? Don't lie to me!"
I said angrily, "Who am I, Tang Qian? Why would I lie to you? Besides, even if I wanted to do something else, I wouldn't choose to be behind you. I just had diarrhea several times and it's so dirty. Do you think I'm a pervert?"
Hua Jingjing's doubts were resolved, and she was so happy that she laughed out loud. I pushed her back to the bed. Hua Jingjing suddenly thought of something, put away her smile, climbed up from the bed, grabbed my shoulders, and said seriously: "So, you saw my naked butt?"
