The first thing Feng Qing did when she woke up was to check if she was still lying on the bathroom floor. However, when she propped herself up, she found that her hand touched a bedsheet?
She opened her eyes and took a good look around and then at herself.
The clothes she wore yesterday were nowhere to be found. She was only in a thin hospital gown.
She had been sent to the hospital.
The ward door was pushed open from the outside. She looked over and saw a man in a suit. His suit was well - tailored, and his hair was neatly combed. He looked like a social elite.
Feng Qing stared at him without saying a word. The man didn't seem embarrassed by her gaze. He just gave Feng Qing a fleeting look and then placed the breakfast he had brought back on the cabinet.
"You woke up quite early." His tone sounded very familiar, but somehow carried a hint of mockery.
Feng Qing was taken aback. Where did this sense of familiarity come from?
"Did you send me to the hospital last night? Thank you." Feng Qing pushed the fallen hair behind her back. She sat on the edge of the bed without any intention of getting up. Her toes gently tapped her shoes as she looked at him sincerely.
Although his tone was a bit unpleasant, he had still helped her after all.
Hearing her say thank you, the man paused in the act of pouring water. Feng Qing also noticed that there was an inexplicable stiffness in his back.
"It's rare to hear the words 'thank you' from your mouth."
Feng Qing was a bit confused. She subconsciously touched her cheek. Did she look so aloof that it seemed she would never say thank you?
It was the first time she knew that someone could misunderstand her like this. Fortunately, she didn't care. She just smiled and continued to say to the man, "Then thank you again. Now you've heard it twice."
The man turned around, unfolded the bedside table, and placed all the breakfast on it. He pointed at the food and looked at Feng Qing without saying a word.
Feng Qing understood what he meant but didn't respond immediately.
It was only when he turned around that Feng Qing really took a good look at his appearance. Although he didn't have sword - shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, his eyebrows and eyes were already very good - looking. His eyelashes were long and thick, casting a shadow under his eyes when he blinked. His nose was straight, and his mouth was also well - shaped.
Well, he was quite handsome.
Feng Qing always felt that she had seen this man somewhere. Finally, she attributed it to the fact that his looks were exactly her type. She didn't show any of her thoughts on her face. She placed one hand on the edge of the table and propped her chin up with the back of her hand. She said softly, "But there's too much food. I can't finish it all by myself. How about... you join me?"
Sheng Yan looked over. Feng Qing's direct gaze met his. The impact of that look was so strong that he couldn't say no.
He pursed his lips and felt inexplicably dry. Seeing the water on the table, he picked it up and drank directly. Due to his excessive avoidance, he momentarily forgot that the water he had just poured was still very hot. By the time he realized it, he had already felt the pain in his mouth and subconsciously spat out the hot water.
The hot water splashed on the floor and his clothes. Even in such a mess, he still held the water cup steadily in his hand without spilling the water out in panic and causing secondary harm to Feng Qing.
He put down the water cup and then straightened up. His whole chin was still red from the hot water, and there were still water droplets on it. Just as he was about to wipe it off with his cuff, Feng Qing stopped him.
Feng Qing got out of bed and pulled him towards the bathroom. "If you directly use fabric to touch the scalded area, it may cause secondary harm to the skin."
She turned on the faucet, patted Sheng Yan on the shoulder to make him bend down slightly, then caught a handful of water and let Sheng Yan put his mouth in her palm to cool it down.
"Does it feel much more comfortable this way? The burning pain has also been relieved, right?"
Sheng Yan looked at Feng Qing in the mirror, and Feng Qing was also looking at him in the mirror.
Her face was an unhealthy pale, with a slight tiredness in her eyebrows and eyes. But her innate charm didn't need any makeup. With just one look, she could make the person being stared at feel enchanted.
She seemed unaware of this, so she could look at him openly. And it was precisely because he was aware of this that he suddenly realized he shouldn't fall into this.
He took a step back, not daring to look into Feng Qing's eyes anymore, and turned to walk out. Feng Qing was confused. She shook her hands to dry the water on them.
After following him out, she just remembered that she hadn't seen the clothes she wore yesterday. "Sorry, I don't mean anything else. Can I know where the clothes I wore last night are?"
Sheng Yan was facing away from her. His voice was muffled as he replied, "I sent them to the dry - cleaner."
Feng Qing was completely confused. If he had seen her faint and sent her to the hospital, she could understand that he was a good person. If he didn't leave but prepared breakfast for her, she could understand that he might be taking responsibility for this or thought she was good - looking and was willing to spend more time on her.
But sending her clothes to the dry - cleaner was something she really couldn't understand.
Although she felt that this man looked a bit familiar, she hadn't been back in the country for several years, so she still couldn't remember who he was. But if he wasn't an acquaintance...
"Have we met before?" Feng Qing was really confused about this. She didn't like to beat around the bush, so she just asked directly.
Two adults had mouths. It was normal to clear up some doubts when facing each other.
Feng Qing didn't expect that the man, who had always been polite, would suddenly change his expression after hearing her question. When he turned to look at her, his eyebrows seemed to be on fire.
He quickly approached her. His expression and tone were not very pleasant. "What did you just say?"
Feng Qing hadn't reacted yet and didn't know what this was all about. The ward door was knocked. She looked over and saw a nurse.
The nurse just gave her a polite smile. She wasn't here for Feng Qing. The next second, the nurse walked towards Sheng Yan. "Mr. Sheng, you left this when you paid the fee."
The nurse handed a wallet to Sheng Yan. Feng Qing stood beside them, staring, and thought that this man's surname was Sheng.
The nurse left quickly. Sheng Yan opened the wallet and took a look. The white paper夹 in it fluttered to the ground.
Feng Qing quickly bent down to pick it up and saw the name filled in on the payment slip - Sheng Yan.
She looked at Sheng Yan again, her face full of disbelief.
This name and this face...
"Sheng Yan? You're Sheng Yan?"
For some reason, she just couldn't quite accept it.
But seeing that Sheng Yan's expression seemed not very good, she handed the payment slip back. "Mr. Sheng, we..."
Sheng Yan completely ignored the payment slip and only cared about Feng Qing's reaction. First, she asked blankly if they knew each other, then she looked surprised and said that he was actually Sheng Yan, and now she even called him Mr. Sheng!
This woman really never changed.
Up close, Feng Qing felt that sparks were flying from his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and said word by word through his teeth, "What did you call me?"
