When Yipin woke up the next day, he opened his eyes nervously and groggily.
In his daze, he heard the bright - smiling voice of a nurse.
Yipin was confused. When he fully opened his eyes, he saw several nurses whispering to each other, covering their mouths and smiling at him.
"Do I have drool on my face?"
Yipin frowned. Just as he was about to turn over, he saw Shen Yu lying heavily on top of him, sound asleep.
"Damn it!"
Yipin pushed Shen Yu away helplessly and looked at the two giggling nurses in front of him with an embarrassed face.
"Sir, it's time for your nebulization treatment this morning!"
The nurse smiled at the two of them.
But Shen Yu was in a deep sleep and didn't move at all. Yipin looked at him helplessly and shook his shoulder.
Still no response. He shook him again. "Hurry up and get up!"
As a result, Shen Yu sat up straight all of a sudden, still muttering, "Yipin, don't be afraid. I'm here for you!"
This made the two nurses laugh even louder.
Yipin frowned and sighed helplessly. Looking at the nurses who were smiling mischievously, he felt even more embarrassed.
Shen Yu opened his eyes blearily. Seeing the situation in front of him, he felt a bit embarrassed and forced a smile.
After the nurse gave Shen Yu the nebulization treatment and an injection, she smiled at Yipin beside him. "Your boyfriend is so clingy. I hope you two will always be happy!"
Hearing this, Yipin was stunned as if struck by lightning. He stood there motionless, not knowing what to do. He glanced at Shen Yu awkwardly.
Shen Yu looked at the two nurses in shock, his eyes wide - open. He turned to look at Yipin in disbelief.
"No, it's not the kind of relationship you think!" Yipin quickly explained.
The two nurse sisters laughed even more merrily, their mouths curving up.
"Don't be shy. We know everything. Didn't you sign the papers that day?"
One of the delicate - looking nurses smiled at Yipin in front of her.
"Yeah, it's a pity. You two handsome guys are taken by each other. Sigh!"
The other nurse chimed in with a laugh.
Yipin looked at Shen Yu with a blushing face.
After the two nurses finished teasing them, they turned around and left.
The air was filled with an atmosphere of ambiguity and embarrassment.
Yipin tried to justify himself. "That day, there was no family member to sign, and the situation was urgent. I just made a decision on my own. I thought it was better to tell a lie than let you die..."
"Okay!"
Shen Yu stared straight at Yipin with a smile.
Yipin suddenly felt a bit nervous. He stood up and walked towards the door. "Well... I'll go buy some breakfast for you and Ziqi!"
After saying that, he quickly left. He let out a sigh of relief when he reached the door, feeling inexplicably flustered.
Carrying the breakfast, he came to Shen Yu's ward. He felt a bit dazed. Just as he opened the door, he saw Fu Xiaotong clinging to Shen Yu, circling around him. The two were acting very intimately.
Suddenly, a thought kept popping up in Yipin's mind: this woman is so annoying. Although as a man, he shouldn't haggle with a woman, she was really an eyesore.
He stood at the door, not knowing whether to go in or back out.
"Look at you. I've told you so many times not to have any contact with Yipin. Every time you're with him, something bad is bound to happen. Now you're even openly together with him... He's just a jinx..."
Fu Xiaotong kept scolding. Whenever her eyes fell on Yipin, there was hatred in them.
Yipin stood still. Although what she said was not entirely false, it still hurt his feelings.
"Don't talk like that. He's a nice guy. Besides, how can you blame him? He always gets hurt himself. In fact, his just actions are really attractive to me!"
Shen Yu said with a smile, the corners of his mouth curving up.
Hearing this, Fu Xiaotong glanced at Shen Yu and shook her head helplessly.
"Anyway, I just think he's unlucky. You'd better stay away from him. Look at him. He always gets into trouble every now and then. He's so irresponsible. He doesn't seem like a decent person..."
Fu Xiaotong still kept scolding.
Ziqi didn't know when she had stood behind Yipin. She pushed open the door and said with a smile, "Brother Yipin, why don't you come in?"
At this moment, Shen Yu and the chattering Fu Xiaotong both turned around and saw what was going on. Fu Xiaotong was obviously a bit dazed. Looking at the scene in front of her, she didn't know what to do and looked a bit embarrassed.
Shen Yu was also a bit dazed. He frowned and looked at Yipin and Ziqi in front of him.
Yipin was even more embarrassed, standing there as if he had deliberately come to eavesdrop on others talking bad about him.
"Well... I bought you breakfast. How about going back to the ward to eat?"
Yipin squatted down, touched Ziqi's nose and said with a smile.
"Can I eat here with Brother Shen Yu?" Ziqi blinked her big eyes at Yipin. Yipin couldn't bear to refuse such a cute look, so he had to nod.
Being sensible, Fu Xiaotong quickly left, leaving the three of them.
"You... When did you come back just now?"
Shen Yu said with a smile and glanced at Yipin.
"Just now!"
Yipin smiled. He fiddled with the egg in his hand, peeled it and gave it to Ziqi. Then he peeled another one and held it in his palm.
"Xiaotong is just a bit mouthy. Don't take it to heart. She's just like that..."
Shen Yu said softly. He prepared the milk and gave it to the well - behaved Ziqi.
Yipin shrugged and didn't say much, but the anger in the corner of his eyes was getting stronger.
He could tolerate Fu Xiaotong gossiping about him behind his back, but he couldn't stand the fact that every time Fu Xiaotong did something inappropriate, it was Shen Yu who came out to apologize.
It was as if the two of them were so close that they could represent each other.
Yipin frowned and didn't say a word.
He kept fiddling with the egg, and there was a bit of disappointment in his eyes.
Shen Yu smiled and picked up the egg that Yipin had been fiddling with.
"Xiaotong and I are like siblings. Moreover... She has someone she likes!" Shen Yu said with a smile.
"The person she likes is you. It's so obvious. Anyone can see it!" Yipin pouted.
"No. We're just like siblings. There's definitely nothing else. Maybe the ambiguity you saw was just because she hates you getting so close to me. So she just acted like that. In fact, she has always had someone she likes, and it's a love that shakes heaven and earth. I'm just a shield!"
Shen Yu reached out and ruffled Yipin's hair with a smile.
Yipin stood still, his eyes wide - open. He looked at Shen Yu in front of him in a daze and said unbelievably, "Impossible. She must have a crush on you... No, it's an open crush!"
Ziqi asked naively, "What is an open crush?"
"It's not suitable for kids!" Yipin reached out and covered Ziqi's ears with a smile.
