Chapter 714: Chapter 714: Jiang Xiaoyan: Love You, Mom!
“Doctor!”
As soon as the door to the emergency room burst open, Chen Shiyen rushed forward like an arrow.
Hands gripping the doctor’s shoulders, he asked frantically, “How is the patient, is everything okay?”
From his actions and expression, it seemed he had deep feelings for Zhou Qingyue.
The doctor revealed a slight smile, “Luckily, he was brought in in time, his legs have been saved.
As long as there’s no external force, he’ll be fine after three to four months of recovery.”
“That’s great, thank you, Doctor!” Chen Shiyen bowed deeply to the doctor before running into the ward.
Jiang Xiaoyan also heaved a huge sigh of relief and followed him in.
Inside the ward.
Zhou Qingyue lay on the bed, pale as snow.
Looking utterly drained.
“You… why are you here?” Zhou Qingyue’s voice was hoarse, clearly very surprised.
Jiang Xiaoyan ground her teeth.
Then, pointing furiously at Zhou Qingyue, she unleashed a torrent of scolding.
“Are you freaking valuing money over your life, huh?”
“Working on a movie during Chinese New Year, I ought to shoot you, for crying out loud!”
“Foolish woman, I really want to slap you twice!”
“Do you not have a brain? Don’t you know to use a stunt double when you should?”
“If I were your boss, I’d blacklist you forever.”
“Laugh, laugh, laugh, what the hell is there to laugh about!”
Seeing that her tirade had elicited no remorse from Zhou Qingyue, who even dared to laugh, Jiang Xiaoyan felt as if her tail had been stepped on.
“I’m sorry.” Zhou Qingyue reined in her smile, pleading pitifully, “I humbly accept the criticism, please don’t be mad… Sister Jiang~”
Even with her temper, Jiang Xiaoyan couldn’t stay mad after being coaxed like that.
Chen Shiyen stood by, a doting smile spreading across his face.
It was his first time seeing the formidable Zhou Qingyue act coy.
Quite amusing, and quite adorable too.
In Chen Shiyen’s eyes, there was only Zhou Qingyue now.
Jiang Xu noticed a huge change in Zhou Qingyue.
She used to be reckless and impulsive in both speech and action. It wasn’t that she was impolite, more like a hooligan.
But now, she’d started to act coy.
It was unclear if it was a dramatic change in personality or if she had just learned to put on a facade.
But no matter what, at least on the surface, it seemed like a good thing.
“Come on, have something to eat.” Jiang Xiaoyan took the food box delivered by an assistant moments ago.
When opened, inside was a pot of soft, overcooked lean pork porridge with a bit of shrimp added.
After taking a spoonful of porridge fed by Jiang Xiaoyan, Zhou Qingyue arched an eyebrow, “It’s so sweet, so delicious.
I didn’t expect you to have such a gentle side. Tell me the truth, have you fallen for me?”
Jiang Xiaoyan, “Love your mom!”
Zhou Qingyue, “…”
Chen Shiyen, “???”
Jiang Xu chuckled, “Don’t mind her, she’s always like this.”
Chen Shiyen showed a smile that was awkward and yet polite, “Miss Jiang really is… really unconcerned with trivial formalities, quite the character.”
Jiang Xu found it somewhat funny that he could come up with such a description; it was quite hard on him.
“You should go back now,” Zhou Qingyue said to Chen Shiyen, noticing his fatigue, “It looks like you haven’t slept for a long time.
Thank you. How much are the medical expenses? I’ll transfer them to you later.”
Chen Shiyen said somewhat angrily, “Do we really need to be so clear-cut about money between us?”
Zhou Qingyue earnestly replied, “It’s better to be clear about money matters, no matter who it is, it’s the same with me.”
“`
Chen Shiyen felt a lump in his throat that wouldn’t go up or down.
In the end, he could only say helplessly, “Fine, it’s a total of 800,000.”
His relationship with Zhou Qingyue had finally made some progress.
Chen Shiyen didn’t want to ruin everything for a minor issue.
After fiddling with her phone, Zhou Qingyue said to Chen Shiyen, “I’ve transferred 1 million to you.
The extra 200,000, consider it a token of my appreciation.
Even though you might not need that 200,000, please accept it.”
Chen Shiyen couldn’t be happy at all.
It meant he was still far from entering Zhou Qingyue’s heart, where everything with her was crystal clear and separate.
Chen Shiyen felt rather dispirited.
He stood up with an expressionless face and said, “I have other things to take care of, so I’ll be going now. You take care and rest.”
After saying that, he left.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk.” Jiang Xiaoyan whistled at Zhou Qingyue like a hooligan woman, “That guy is absolutely smitten with you.
In my opinion, though he can’t compare to my Brother Jiang,
he’s more than a good match for someone of your caliber. I say you should just accept him.”
“What do you mean ‘someone of my caliber’?” Zhou Qingyue was very displeased, “Is my caliber low? Make yourself clear!”
Jiang Xiaoyan: “Not low, not low at all, your caliber is sky-high, as high as two or three floors, happy now?”
Zhou Qingyue: “!!!”
Zhou Qingyue said very unhappily, “You’d better leave soon, otherwise I might just die of anger because of you.
I could possibly get better in three months, but with your meddling, it’ll take at least a year now.”
Jiang Xiaoyan: “Okay, okay, I’ll shut up. Be good, open your mouth, ah…”
Zhou Qingyue: “…”
Jiang Xu shook his head and sent a message to An Nuonuo.
He told her that Zhou Qingyue was out of danger, and her legs had been saved.
After eating, Zhou Qingyue’s complexion clearly improved a lot.
Jiang Xiaoyan got up: “I’ll go ask the doctor if you need to take medicine, just wait a bit.”
Only Jiang Xu and Zhou Qingyue were left in the room then.
The atmosphere suddenly became a bit awkward.
It was Zhou Qingyue who took the initiative to break the silence: “Thank you for coming to see me, I didn’t expect you to arrive so quickly.”
She felt rather complex emotions.
Jiang Xu said, “Actually, it was Nuonuo who told me to come here.
I was still asleep at the time, she woke me up to tell me you had an accident, and then I rushed over here.”
With that said, Zhou Qingyue’s emotions became even more complex.
She immediately felt that she really hasn’t been a good person in the past.
“Please thank her for me, and once I go back, I’ll treat you guys to a meal.”
“Hmm, no rush,” Jiang Xu said, his eyes flickering, “but with such a big incident, none of your crew came.”
“That’s how people are here,” Zhou Qingyue didn’t mind, “Besides, I’m just a foreigner to them, connected by interests rather than emotions.
I guess many of them think I’m done for this time, so there’s no need to keep up appearances anymore.”
Jiang Xu nodded: “Then what are your plans now, are you going back to the country for treatment, or staying here?”
“I’ll go back,” Zhou Qingyue said softly, “Actually, the scene we were filming was the very last one.
The final shot can be done with a stand-in.
So in fact, I’ve already completed my filming, and the most important thing now is to recover.”
Jiang Xiaoyan came back.
After making Zhou Qingyue take her medicine, she said to Jiang Xu, “Let’s go rest as well, there’s only one vacant room at the nearby hotel, and I’ll take the loss and we’ll squeeze in.”
