Meng Jingwei was chatting with Qing Muye when someone knocked on the door of the ward.
Then someone outside pushed the door open and walked in.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I never thought that you, with your high martial arts skills, would get sick one day."
The first to enter was Shen Liannuo. She was still leaning on a crutch. Seeing Meng Jingwei propped up on the bed, she couldn't help but tease.
Behind her, Lin Meng, Chu Xue, Cheng Xiaorui, Han Yu, Lu Yanming, and others all walked in.
The spacious ward seemed a bit crowded with the arrival of these people.
They placed their gifts aside and walked up to Meng Jingwei, asking about her well-being.
Lin Meng, "Weiwei, what happened to you?"
Chu Xue, "Who injured you like this? Tell me, sis will help you beat them back!"
Cheng Xiaorui, "Are you feeling better now? Do you still have a fever?"
The three girls sat with Meng Jingwei, chatting. The other men walked to the sofa and sat down, chatting with Qing Muye.
Feeling the concern from everyone, Meng Jingwei was happy and relieved. "Thank you all for coming such a long way to see me. I'm fine, I just fell into the water and had a high fever."
Shen Liannuo sat by the bedside, still holding her crutch. She sighed and shook her head, "I really didn't expect anyone would dare to bully you."
Chu Xue, "Exactly. Who knew she could still be bullied?"
Lin Meng, "You're alone in Yancheng, you need to take good care of yourself. If anything happens, call us."
Cheng Xiaorui, "You can also call Brother Han Yu."
She gestured with her hands, and both Meng Jingwei and Shen Liannuo could understand.
Shen Liannuo couldn't help but chuckle, "If she dares to call your Brother Han Yu, I'm afraid certain people's jealousy will overflow."
As she finished speaking, several people turned their heads to look at Qing Muye, who was sitting on the sofa, and they all burst into laughter.
"I'm really fine."
Being cared for, Meng Jingwei was grateful and touched.
Especially seeing Shen Liannuo, who used to be so aloof and proud as the young master of the Hidden Clan, and who was so unruly, but now treated her as a friend, hobbling over from Lancheng on crutches to visit her, she genuinely felt that Shen Liannuo was all bark and no bite, and worth befriending.
She looked at Chu Xue, "Aren't you busy with your company lately? How do you have time to come?"
Chu Xue sat elegantly in the companion chair, adjusting her skirt, and sighed, "You're not in Lancheng, and I find Lancheng boring without you. I just wanted to come and find you." After speaking, she cast a meaningful glance at Meng Jingwei.
Their eyes met, and in an instant, Meng Jingwei knew what Chu Xue meant.
From their trip to the Hidden Clan until now, Chu Xue probably hadn't seen Han Junyan. Judging by her expression, she must be missing Han Junyan again and wanted to inquire about him from her.
"Miss Chu, you should speak clearly. If people hear you without context, they'll think you like women," Meng Jingwei joked, making everyone laugh.
They sat and chatted for the entire morning.
After Meng Jingwei finished her IV drip and her fever subsided, she went with the group to a hotel for a meal.
After dinner, as the New Year was approaching and they had many things to handle, they all returned to Lancheng separately.
However, Shen Liannuo lingered by Meng Jingwei's side, "Can I not go back? Lancheng is really too boring. Every day I have to deal with Song Jun and Lu Yanming, and it gives me a headache."
Song Jun, standing nearby, heard Shen Liannuo's words and his expression turned slightly unnatural as he turned his head away and remained silent.
On the other hand, Lu Yanming pushed up his glasses and said seriously, "It's almost the end of the year, and the company will be on holiday soon. If you find Lancheng boring, you can stay here and keep Jingwei company."
"Really?"
Shen Liannuo was overjoyed, "Thank you, boss."
Song Jun, however, turned to look at Qing Muye and asked in a low voice, "If she's staying here, do I have to stay too?"
