Xiao Chen said "Oh," and stood up tactfully, "Then I'll step aside and make room for you."

She walked to the door and looked back once more. "Ring the bell if you need anything."

"Understood, Nurse Chen."

The ward fell silent.

Shen Ruo leaned against the headboard, feeling a little nervous.

Qi Wenshen has arrived.

When he pushed the door open, Shen Ruo had just adjusted the angle of her pillow. She looked up when she heard the door open and then froze.

Is this Qi Wenshen?

That man whose shirts were always perfectly wrinkle-free, whose hair was always impeccably styled, and who always looked like he had stepped out of a magazine cover.

The person standing at the door right now.

A patch of bluish-black stubble appeared on his chin, his hair was a mess like a chicken coop, his eyes were bloodshot, and the dark circles under his eyes made him look like a national treasure.

Shen Ruo took several seconds to speak, "You...you went to the streets to experience life as a homeless person?"

Qi Wenshen ignored her teasing remark.

He walked a few steps to the bedside, sat down in a chair, and looked at her face. His efforts to restrain himself still betrayed his nervousness.

He called out, "Ruoruo."

The voice was spoken very cautiously.

Seeing him like this, Shen Ruo's pent-up resentment from not seeing him for several days suddenly dissipated.

After she finished speaking, she herself felt that her tone was a bit shameless.

But that's what she wanted to say.

She came back; she just wanted to tell him.

Qi Wenshen reached out, grasped her hand that was outside the blanket, and turned it over so that her hand was pressed against his cheek.

The rough stubble beneath her palms made them itch.

"Be a good boy and don't move around. You'll be fine soon."

His fingertips gently brushed against her knuckles.

Shen Ruo nodded, noticing the deep worry in his eyes. "Then will you always stay with me?"

Qi Wenshen looked at her pale face, reached out and touched her forehead, his fingertips slowly sliding down from her brow and nose, as if to confirm that the person in front of him was real through touch.

His gaze was deep, churning with emotions that Shen Ruo couldn't quite understand, but she could feel his fingertips trembling slightly.

"meeting."

He suddenly remembered something and secretly made a note of it.

How dare that person occupy this body?

And they even shamelessly claimed that it was her body.

When he has time, he needs to go and get a talisman for Ruoruo so that this kind of thing doesn't happen again.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Shen Ruo forced a smile, "What? Are you captivated by my stunning beauty?"

She spoke with a slight upward inflection at the end of her voice, carrying a hint of pride and playfulness, but because of her pale face and chapped lips, she sounded pitiful.

Qi Wenshen finally managed a slight smile.

He gently buried his face in the side of her neck, the stubble on his chin brushing against the skin of her neck, his warm breath tickling her skin. "Mmm, I'm mesmerized."

Shen Ruo felt a little itchy from his rubbing and tried to shrink her neck away, but she was injured and couldn't move around, so she just symbolically turned her head away.

Then she heard Qi Wenshen's voice from beside her neck, very softly, "I'm sorry."

Shen Ruo's hand paused slightly.

She could feel that the lines of his face were very tense.

I belatedly realized that he was talking about the injury.

He wasn't there when she was injured, and he couldn't stop that person from entering her body.

The man was blaming himself.

Shen Ruo gently raised her hand, her fingertips running through his messy hair, stroking the top of his head. Her voice softened, "Why are you saying sorry? You're not the one who did something wrong."

I failed to protect you.

Shen Ruo: "..."

She was clearly the one who needed comforting the most.

She had been stabbed several times, and her wounds had reopened. She had lost weight after lying in bed for so many days, but judging from the tone of his voice, she felt much better than him.

Qi Wenshen was still shaken. "I was terrified."

"..."

Shen Ruo reached out and patted the back of his head, like she was coaxing a large dog. "It was an accident. Nobody expected someone to stab them in the back like that. You're not Superman; you can't be with me 24/7, can you?"

Qi Wenshen looked up and said, "I'll take you with me wherever I go from now on."

Shen Ruo laughed, "What if the hospital won't allow it?"

"Then I won't go."

Shen Ruo: "..."

The hospital has been given a doctor who's obsessed with romance.

The dean must have been furious but helpless.

Because the doctor with a "love-struck" mindset is highly skilled.

Shen Ruo nodded, "Okay, then I'll follow Dr. Qi from now on."

She finished speaking and yawned, her eyelids feeling heavy.

These past few days of constant ups and downs, coupled with her overthinking, have taken a toll on her health.

Qi Wenshen did not ask Shen Ruo about the body being switched a few days ago.

He forgot the memories of those days, along with the soul that didn't belong to her, and never mentioned it again.

Shen Ruo had considered whether to take the initiative to explain, but every time she opened her mouth to speak...

"Thirsty? Here, have some water."

Qi Wenshen would then use a cotton swab dipped in water to moisten her lips.

After moistening her lips, she opened her mouth again.

"Are you hungry? I'll go heat up some rice porridge."

Watching the figure walk away.

Knowing that Qi Wenshen was hiding, Shen Ruo wisely refrained from mentioning it again.

Since he acted as if nothing had happened, let's skip it.

One afternoon, Qi Wenshen suddenly disappeared for several hours.

When Shen Ruo woke up, she didn't see him beside her.

She waited for another half hour, but he still didn't come back, so she couldn't help but ring the bell to call Zhou Lan.

When Zhou Lan pushed open the door, she was holding a cup of milk tea. Seeing Shen Ruo's puzzled expression, she asked first, "What's wrong? Is your wound uncomfortable?"

"No, do you know where Qi Wenshen went?"

Zhou Lan sat down on the edge of the bed and placed the milk tea on the bedside table. "I don't know. He only told me to keep a close eye on you and not to move around too much when you're awake, because he had something to take care of."

"They didn't say where they were going. They're being so mysterious."

Shen Ruo frowned.

Qi Wenshen usually wished he could stay in her hospital room 24/7.

What did you do today?

She could only suppress her curiosity and wait for him to come back and tell her.

Zhou Lan noticed that she was not speaking.

"If you're not comfortable with that, give them a call and check up on them."

"I won't investigate. I'm not a complaining woman."

"You look pretty close."

"You're here to annoy me."

"I wouldn't dare."

Zhou Lan leaned back in her chair and drank milk tea.

When she sat down, the fabric around her waist and abdomen bulged slightly in a small curve.

Shen Ruo's gaze lingered on her waist for two seconds. "Your waistline seems to have gotten even bigger."

Zhou Lan choked on her milk tea, coughed twice, and said, "Where?"

Shen Ruo didn't respond to her question, but instead asked, "Have you and Wei Jing broken up?"

Zhou Lan put down her milk tea cup, her expression becoming somewhat subtle. "It didn't work out."

"So you confessed to him?"

"no."

"So what's your relationship now?"

Zhou Lan thought of something and cursed angrily, "That dog of a man, Wei Jing, is shameless."
