Chapter 370 Does it hurt?
When Gao Zhu knocked on the door, he saw Jiang Xing lying on the side of Lou Qi's hospital bed, her right hand being tightly held by the latter's left hand, which had an IV in it.
Jiang Xing had been guarding the building all night. Before, he was on tenterhooks and dared not sleep, but now that he could finally relax, he slept quite soundly.
The seriously injured person, who should have been asleep, suddenly opened his eyes as if stimulated the moment he heard the door open.
His first reaction wasn't to look in the direction the door opened, but to look at his side—the woman was fast asleep beside him. From this angle, her face was slightly distorted by the pressure, giving her usually aloof face a rare touch of childlike cuteness.
The person is still here; they haven't left.
Lou Qi breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at the person who opened the door.
Assistant Gao felt a chill run down his spine, and his face turned ashen, but he had no choice but to whisper, "President Gu has come to see you."
Gu Yanci and Lou Qi have an unusual relationship; they are best friends who share the same pants and are also the most reliable strategic partners at work.
Gao Zhu dared to shut others out, but he wouldn't dare treat Gu Yanci like that.
Lou Qi, however, was different. He mouthed, "I won't see you."
The most important thing now is to cherish the time you spend with Jiang Xing. Isn't Gu Yanci's appearance just giving Jiang Xing an opportunity?
Just then, Gu Yanci appeared uninvited at the door of the ward, and his eyes met Lou Qi's.
Gu Yanci glanced at Lou Qi, then saw Jiang Xing sleeping beside him. Two seconds later, he turned and left on his own.
—These two have been good friends for so many years, and they understand each other without needing to say much.
Gu Yanci had heard that Lou Qi had been in a serious car accident, so he wanted to come and see for himself to put his mind at ease. He was ready to offer help immediately if Lou Qi needed it. However, it was now clear that the injured man wasn't very concerned about his health.
As someone who had once shared the same ailment, Gu Yanci understood perfectly what it was like to be blinded by love. Therefore, needless to say, leaving was the best help.

On a weekday, Jiang Xing went to work at the company as usual.
She discovered that both Minglou Group and Gu's Group seemed to be intentionally reducing her workload, allowing her to not only leave work on time but also leave early.
"Why are you so late? Is Aci exploiting you?" Lou Qi counted the time; Jiang Xing arrived two hours later than he expected.
I get off work at 5 PM, and by the time I get to the hospital I'll be at the hospital by 5:30 PM at the latest, but it's already 7:30 PM.
Jiang Xing didn't explain, but placed the insulated food container she brought on the dining table: "The doctor said you can eat liquid food today, so I cooked porridge for you."
Lou Qi paused for a moment, then his eyes lit up: "You cooked this for me?"
Jiang Xing said expressionlessly, "I bought it from a roadside stall."
I just told him I was going to cook it for him. Doesn't he understand what I'm saying? Why is he repeating himself like this?
Lou Qi knew she was saying that on purpose and was feeling quite pleased with himself when he suddenly noticed a blister on Jiang Xing's index finger.
The smile and smugness on his face suddenly froze: "What happened to your hand?"
Jiang Xing glanced over there and realized that she had been distracted while cooking porridge earlier that day and had accidentally burned herself.
"It's nothing, just a little burn."
Lou Qi looked rather unwell and pressed the call button to summon a doctor to treat Jiang Xing's burns.
The doctor initially thought that the scald blister, about the size of a white bean, didn't need treatment and would heal naturally once the tissue fluid was absorbed.
He wasn't oblivious; he didn't say anything and obediently applied burn ointment.
"Does it hurt?" Lou Qi asked with concern.
