Jiang Momo stayed in Xiangcheng for three more days.

For the past three days, she has been working tirelessly, taking care of Li Yunqi day and night.

I don't know if this person did it on purpose, but it's clearly just a stomach ailment, yet it's like they've lost their arms and legs.

Jiang Momo had to do everything.

Even on the first day, he wanted Jiang Momo to help him to the toilet.

After being glared at by Jiang Momo, Li Yunqi reluctantly looked away and moved over on his own.

Then it became even more outrageous.

"Momo, I'm thirsty and want to drink water."

"I'm a little hungry, can you order takeout for me?"

"Let's go out for a walk together. I'm so bored staying in the hospital room all day."

Jasmine is long, jasmine is short.

Jiang Momo felt like she wasn't taking care of someone, but rather acting as a mother hen.

She still has to face someone she particularly dislikes.

Every time Jiang Momo was about to get angry, Li Yunqi would immediately put on that aggrieved expression.

"It's okay, Momo. If you don't want to stay with me, then leave as soon as possible. I can manage on my own. You go and work hard and make money. Don't worry about me."

Jiang Momo: ...

Now that things have come to this point, it would seem incredibly heartless for Jiang Momo to leave.

After Li Yunqi called her name countless times, Jiang Momo's ears were practically calloused, and she finally received a "pardon" from the doctor.

It was announced that Li Yunqi could be discharged from the hospital.

When the doctor arrived, Li Yunqi was eating an apple that Jiang Momo had peeled herself. Upon hearing this, his expression changed immediately.

"Doctor, do you want to have another check-up? I still feel really uncomfortable."

The middle-aged doctor frowned and asked, "Where do you feel unwell?"

Without thinking, Li Yunqi started spouting nonsense.

"Headache, blurred vision, weak legs, nausea, problems everywhere."

Doctor:……

Jiang Momo: ...

She stopped peeling the apple and raised her hand to snatch it from Li Yunqi's hand.

"Since you're feeling so unwell, you shouldn't eat. From now on, just drink porridge."

Li Yunqi has developed a psychological trauma from drinking porridge these past few days.

After all, eating porridge for every meal is too bland and tasteless. At this moment, his expression froze, and he didn't know how to respond.

She could only hold onto the apple tightly to prevent Jiang Momo from snatching it away.

However, just to be on the safe side, the doctor still ordered a full set of tests for Li Yunqi.

Jiang Momo couldn't help but feel emotional.

It's true that only rich people can be so extravagant.

The results came out quickly, proving that Li Yunqi was perfectly healthy and his stomach was almost fully recovered.

Perhaps because young people recover quickly, or perhaps because he was in a good mood while being with someone he liked, his physical condition was even better than when he was first hospitalized.

He can no longer use feeling unwell as an excuse to stay in the hospital.

Of course, he couldn't let Jiang Momo continue to take care of him.

The doctor gave her a discharge certificate, and Jiang Momo was overjoyed at the thought of finally getting rid of Li Yunqi and returning to the capital.

I wonder how Li Jiuyuan is doing after all these days?

Realizing that she was unconsciously thinking of Li Jiuyuan, Jiang Momo quickly shook her head, trying to shake the person out of her mind.

But the more she tried to forget, the more vividly Li Jiuyuan's face appeared in her mind.

While ostensibly handling Li Yunqi's discharge procedures, Jiang Momo secretly went to the stairwell herself. She took out her phone, letting the pale light of the screen shine on her face, interspersed with a small green projection.

Opening the chat box with Li Jiuyuan, the last message was that a few nights ago, Jiang Momo asked Li Jiuyuan if he had arrived home yet.

Further up, she was telling Li Jiuyuan to be careful on the road.

But Li Jiuyuan didn't reply to a single message.

The whole thing felt like a one-woman show.

Jiang Momo remained silent for a long time, editing and rewriting, but in the end, she still didn't send it.

Frustrated, she logged out and deleted the chat box with Li Jiuyuan.

"Jiang Momo, can't you be a little more sensible? If Li Jiuyuan doesn't want to talk to you, so be it. Who cares?"

"If he's so capable, let him never talk to me again for the rest of his life."

Biting her lip, Jiang Momo cleared the background apps on her phone, but unconsciously started looking at flight tickets.

The next flight is this afternoon.

If all goes well, she should be home tonight.

Just as they were about to buy tickets and pay, Li Yunqi appeared out of nowhere.

His tall figure blocked the door to the stairwell, cutting off the light source behind him.

"Momo."

Li Yunqi gazed at him tenderly.

Jiang Momo frowned, instinctively on guard.

What are you doing here?

Having endured until today, she didn't want to have another big fight with Li Yunqi at the last minute, lest she find herself unable to extricate herself.

The man's eyes were filled with reluctance and sadness. He remained silent for a long time before speaking apologetically:

"I'm sorry, I can't go back with you right now. I need to stay here for a while longer."

"If you miss me during this time, you can come to see me anytime."

Jiang Momo was completely baffled.

Seeing that Li Yunqi was about to continue expressing his affection, she immediately interrupted him.

"Alright, that's enough."

She took a step back, just a tiny step, as if drawing a boundary between them that was difficult to cross.

"Li Yunqi, I made it very clear to you that day that the reason I was willing to stay and take care of you was to thank you for giving me a job opportunity."

"It doesn't mean I still have feelings for you. I don't like you, I don't like you now, and I won't like you in the future."

"So stop saying these strange things. How long you stay in Xiangcheng has nothing to do with me, and I won't come looking for you."

Jiang Momo felt that she had made herself very clear.

Li Yunqi is a smart man; there's no way he wouldn't understand.

But it is precisely because he understands that the pain seems so obvious and real.

The man still refused to believe it.

How could Jiang Momo have absolutely no feelings for him?!

He had thought that their relationship had finally improved over the past few days.

After all, in Li Yunqi's view, their interactions had been very pleasant from beginning to end.

And he clearly remembered that Momo had smiled at him just a few days ago! If Momo really didn't like him, why did she stay? Why did she smile at him?

But the facts were right in front of him, and Li Yunqi could clearly see how ruthless Jiang Momo was when she said those words.

He's such a fool!

But Li Yunqi would rather be a fool.

No, he absolutely cannot give up so easily.

Jiang Momo was definitely not speaking her mind.

It seems he wanted to prove his importance to Momo, or perhaps he simply wanted to provoke Momo.

Li Yunqi gritted his teeth, steeled his resolve, and spoke:

"Great! I'm going on a blind date soon anyway. If it works out, I'll invite Miss Jiang to my wedding banquet."

After saying these words, Li Yunqi's eyes never left Jiang Momo.

He was looking forward to it.

I hope Jiang Momo can show a sad or angry expression.

But there was nothing there.

Jiang Momo stood in front of him, her expression calm and undisturbed, like a clear pool.

The pebble he threw did not cause the slightest ripple on the surface of the pool.
