Chapter 15: 15

The bodyguard behind him immediately handed a bottle of mineral water and whispered, “Mr Jing, Xu Chenghao dares to treat you like this…”

“No.” Jing Yicheng’s expression instantly turned cold: “Don’t make a fool of yourself.”

The bodyguard lowered his head: “Okay.”

Jing Yicheng took a long time to unscrew the bottle cap of the mineral water, but in the end, he didn’t drink it but covered it again: “Ruan Chenxuan is still not here?”

Bodyguard: “He’ll be here soon.”

Jing Yicheng: “In that case, we don’t have to wait anymore; let’s go.”

  “Yes.”

So not long after Xu Chenghao’s car left, Jing Yicheng also left the hospital in a low-key manner. At the same time, an ordinary black vehicle was parked at the hospital’s back door. According to the information obtained, Ruan Chenxuan, wearing a black cap, got off the car and rushed to the ward.

……

Xu Chenghao galloped all the way home and hurriedly planted pepper seeds again, but the anger in his heart couldn’t help but rush upwards.

The fruiting rate that he obtained once against all odds ah! The first time he saw the hope of crossing back, ah!

Damn, the more I think about it, the angrier I get!

Jing Yicheng is an asshole, a lunatic, and a psychopath! There is nothing wrong with the plot description. He is just a perverted person who likes to tease people. No wonder the female lead hates him so much. He deserves to be unable to find a wife and be single for the rest of his life and!!

The more Xu Chenghao thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more furious he became, the more he wanted to tear up the villain! But thinking about his strength and background which was not good compared to the other party. Ultimately, he can only comfort himself with the villain being single for a lifetime and then hold the little yellow duck beak flowerpot to pray sadly.  

I hope there will be a miracle next time so that I can harvest peppers again. Amen! 

Also, I will never have to deal with the nerves of Jing Yicheng again!

Never again! !!

The next day.

Maybe it was because of the ups and downs last night or the fact that Xu Chenghao drove back home by himself  last night in the cold wind. But he, a strong and healthy young man, fell ill overnight, with a fever of more than 39 degrees.

Xu Chenghao was utterly burned out and felt like he was living in a dream. Everything in the outside world could not be seen clearly through the heavy fog. The only feeling was that he seemed to be wearing a layer of hot armour with needles, which was hot and bulky. Dense, fine needles are also stuck in his flesh, and it hurts to move.

Xu Chenghao wanted to take off the armour, but as soon as he moved his finger, he was held down and stabbed by another needle.

A cool liquid passed into his body along the needle in his hand, which seemed to greatly relieve his discomfort to a great extent. Xu Chenghao’s tightly knitted brow finally eased, and he drowsily fell asleep again.

What made him fall asleep was the coolness on the back of his hand; what made him wake up suddenly was also the pain on the back of his hand. He hissed softly, woke up, and saw a man in a white coat standing beside the bed, sorting out the water-hanging equipment, with a few drops of blood remaining in the thin tube behind the needle.

Xu Chenghao glanced at the needle and suddenly raised his right wrist with great effort and put it in front of his eyes. Sure enough, he saw a blood-stained hemostatic sticker on the back of his hand—the pain that just woke him up should have been from extracting the needle.

The doctor noticed his movements and asked in a low voice after confirming that he was awake: “How is Mr Xu feeling? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?”

Xu Chenghao said weakly, “It’s alright, but I just don’t have the strength.”

The doctor said, “Eat something and get some sleep… But although your fever has subsided, you still need to continue taking injections to treat the cold.”

Xu Chenghao asked slowly, “Can I take medicine?”

Doctor: “Alright, I’ll prescribe medicine for you; wait a moment.”

Xu Chenghao hummed and continued to lie weakly on the bed and spread out his body.

After the doctor finished packing, he turned and left the room. Through the unclosed door, he could vaguely hear who the doctor was talking to. Then he saw Li Nian walking in with a bowl of porridge and shouting: “Mr Xu went out in the middle of the night to get some fresh air; his spirit is commendable. I came to visit Mr Xu on behalf of all the company employees to wish Mr Xu an early victory over the disease and recovery.”

“Cough, cough, cough!” Xu Chenghao was instantly irritated: “I’m not terminally ill. What do you mean by overcoming the disease? I just caught a cold, okay?!”

“It’s all blessings, don’t worry about it so much.” Li Nian brushed it off and asked, “Quickly tell me, where did you go to pick up the girl last night? The fever was so serious. You went out for a drive all night, didn’t you?”

Xu Chenghao rolled his eyes: “I think you can’t spit out ivory from a dog’s mouth!1狗嘴里长不出象牙 gǒu zuǐ li zhǎng bù chū xiàngyá：No ivory will come out of a dog’s mouth. It is used to criticize someone who just can’t say nice things. It’s not like you didn’t know that I went home yesterday. I got sick because I didn’t close the car window on the way back from Xu’s house.”

Li Nian clicked his tongue in disbelief, “Let’s get up and eat first. The white porridge aunt makes is delicious and just right for you as a patient.”

Xu Chenghao: “Are you here to see me or to eat food? Did you bring something to see me as a patient?”

Li Nian: “I did; I brought a lot of documents.”

Xu Chenghao: “…”

What are careless friendships? This is carelessness in making friends!

After eating, Xu Chenghao lay on the bed and closed his eyes lazily. Li Nian sat on the edge of the bed, sorting out the cold medicine left by the doctor while saying, “Do you know what time it is? Can you believe it’s four o’clock in the afternoon? No matter what time you slept last night, it must be at least sixteen hours by now; you’ve slept like a pig.”

Xu Chenghao’s eyes widened in surprise: “Four o’clock in the afternoon? So late?!”

“Yes, I came three times, and you didn’t wake up. You really don’t have anyone anymore?” Li Nian was very disgusted.

The corners of Xu Chenghao’s mouth twitched: “I actually slept all day …… Nothing happened today, right? Tell me about it.”

Li Nian: “Nothing happened. I saw you were not at work this morning, so I called to ask what was happening. It was aunty who answered the phone. She told me that you had a fever, and it was a severe fever… By the way, you have to thank the aunt, if it wasn’t for her who came to work and found out you had a fever, you would be dead at home by now.” 

Xu Chenghao: “…Can you say something nice!”

Li Nian: “Okay, anyway, the family doctor had already arrived when I came. I took advantage of the meal break to see you, and the rest of the time, Aunty took care of you….Auntie treats you very well and is very dedicated. I’ll feel so sorry for her kindness if she doesn’t get a salary increase.”

Overbearing president Xu Chenghao lifted his upper body and said one word, “Raise!”

Li Nian took out his work memo and wrote it down, admonishing: “You don’t have much energy. You will rest more and then go to work the day after tomorrow. You didn’t work so hard in the past, but now you’re almost a model worker.”

 

After speaking, Li Nian hesitated; his face was expressing, ‘Don’t use work to numb yourself.’

Xu Chenghao was stunned for a second when he saw his expression. It took him a while to realize that his dedication to work these days was probably seen by the other party as him being frustrated with love and relying on work to numb his pain. 

 MMP2とmmpは流行語なんです。扎心 is originally from the quote “扎心了老铁”, literally means “my heart was stabbed, buddy”. But if it is used as a slang it means “son of bitch”. I’m not certain what Haohao wanted to imply with this, I guess you can choose the meaning that best suits your understanding. ! This is obviously a habit left by his previous life, okay? Urban life is so stressful. How can anyone not work overtime or work hard?!

—Although the original owner often chased behind An Rouyu, acting out hero saves the beauty, plus the number of days he reported to work was indeed very low. Thus, it seemed suspicious that the difference was twice that of the current one. He was really habitually working under pressure, okay?! It has nothing to do with a certain female lead!

Xu Chenghao was simply tired.

He thought his spare tire halo was very powerful, and it was difficult for him to change other people’s views. He also knew that the feelings of the original owner for more than 20 years were not something he could deny in a few words. If it wasn’t for the villain who suddenly ate his pepper last night, he really wouldn’t be anxious at all!

But after going through what happened last night… Xu Chenghao now just wants a loudspeaker that can broadcast worldwide, then shout to all the plot characters: I really don’t like the female lead anymore! From now on, I only like pepper and little yellow duck!！

He was depressed and almost vomitted blood in his heart. However, Li Nian was still looking at him with the eyes of “I understand you, I know you are numbing yourself with work” Xu Chenghao was silent for three seconds, then suddenly sat up and decided to hurt each other.

“Li Nian, do you know why I went home yesterday?”

Li Nian casually guessed, “Because you rejected Miss Zheng?”

Xu Chenghao showed a Mona Lisa smile: “Do you know why?”

Li Nian guessed based on what he knew about him: “Don’t consider personal feelings for the time being?”

Xu Chenghao: “No, I told her I like men!”

Li Nian: “???”

After five seconds, Li Nian finally came to his senses, stood up abruptly, and said, “Fuck you! I just said something bad, ah …… then you mean that the family also knows?”

“Having said that, the family also knows.” Xu Chenghao leaned on the pillow slowly and watched him jump: “I told my family that I like men. My emotions for An Ruoyu are all thoughts of responsibility and compensation. There is no need to worry about me being sad for An Ruoyu.” 

Li Nian: “Fuck, what will you do in the future? Although it’s not discrimination, your lie is too big… and you even pulled me into the water!! You didn’t tell anyone that it was my idea, did you?!!”

“It’s not pulling into the water; it’s a shield.” Xu Chenghao said with a smile: “My dear assistant Li Nian, in the future, if someone knows that I like men but still inseparable from you, they can probably guess why.”

“As for the future…if I find a lover, I will give you up and say that this was your bad idea!”

Li Nian was about to cry: “Damn, I just said it casually; how could I have known that you would really tell your family? Is it too late for me to report you now?”

Xu Chenghao: “Go, go, I’ll tell my family that I like you, but you’ve had enough of my pestering, so you lied that I don’t like men.”

Li Nian: “…”

He really wanted to kneel to this scourge.

Li Nian mourned and complained while packing his things, chanting, “Laozi3老子 (Lao Zi) ; father or daddy “I, your father” (in anger, or out of contempt) I (used arrogantly or jocularly) kindly came to visit you who are sick, but you treat Laozi like this. Not only is Laozi’s innocence not preserved, but he also bears the reputation of a liar …… My life is miserable, my life is miserable…”

After speaking, Li Nian floated out like a wandering spirit holding the packed folder and notebook.

Xu Chenghao waved: “I won’t see you out, goodbye!”

Li Nian immediately put away his acting skills: “Fuck you, you heartless person, just discarding me after use!”

Xu Chenghao said slowly, “Yes, I’m a heartless person, so if I say I don’t like An Rouyu, I don’t like An Rouyu anymore. If you dare to show your previous expression again in the future, I will be even more heartless.”

“Then what you just said was false; you lied to me, right?” Li Nian asked hopefully.

Xu Chenghao: “No.”

Li Nian: “…”

“I’m leaving, don’t see me off!”

Li Nian walked away without looking back. After sending more than a dozen Tucao4吐槽 (tucao); (slang) to roast or to ridicule emoticons from his WeChat account, he blocked it.

Xu Chenghao sat back on the bed with satisfaction. The feeling of being so aggrieved by Li Nian’s eyes that he vomited blood was relieved and much more comfortable.

It’s a pity that the villain is still at large…with his current strength, he can’t solve it.

Oh, what a pity.
