When a person meets tragedy, how miserable can they get?
Shen Mingbei felt he should be able to make a remark on it, and as an adjudicator at the very least.
Who would’ve thought that, with just a few missed meals, he’d pass out from a stomach ache?!

After he went upstairs last night, he thought about calling Qu Lang back; however, his stomach ached to the point he fainted and had to lie on the floor for several hours. He wasn’t sure whether he woke up from the cold or from the heat of a fever, but after he dizzily woke up, he strugglingly laid on his bed, lacking the energy to even shout for someone.
After he fainted, he ceaselessly began running in his dream.
It was as if there were countless pairs of big hands chasing behind him. Then, after falling from a cliff, he was roasted in a furnace and his throat became increasingly drier, the unbearable pain making him feel as if he was going to suffocate to death.

When Shen Mingbei woke up, he was at the hospital, an IV drip injected into his hands, and Xiao Zhang was peeling an apple for him.
Shen Mingbei had only moved a slight bit before Xiao Zhang noticed the change and saw him wake up; he promptly handed him the apple. “Brother Shen, you finally woke up QAQ Brother Shen, eat an apple.”

“Why are you here?” After Shen Mingbei spoke, he realised his throat hurt, so he could only hoarsely ask him, “I thought I was at home?”
Speaking of this, Xiao Zhang was a little angered; he indignantly said, “I went to meet you this morning and just so happened to see your servant call the family doctor to give you a drip. You were already burnt into a coma, so how could I casually trust that kind of doctor? In this situation, you must trust the public first-grade hospital!”

Seeing Xiao Zhang’s manner, Shen Mingbei suddenly laughed and explained to him, “The family doctor my servant called should be the resident physician of the Qu Family’s private hospital.”
Maybe it was the one Shen Mingbei was familiar with; thinking of Dr Fu’s aggrieved expression after getting driven away by Xiao Zhang, he couldn’t help but find it funny.
Xiao Zhang was astonished and said, “I can’t understand you rich people’s world.”
Shen Mingbei: “I’m not the one who’s rich.”

Having mentioned this, Xiao Zhang was also silent.
At first, when Xiao Zhang first discovered Shen Mingbei and Qu Lang were together, he was extremely surprised; it’s a pity it took him a long time to realise these two didn’t have good feelings for each other. Whenever Shen Mingbei went out for filming, let’s not mention how Qu Lang never went to visit the crew, but there’d be times he wouldn’t make a single phone call for months at end.
And then there was Brother Shen, who would send messages to Qu Lang every day…

Xiao Zhang vaguely understood from Shen Mingbei that Qu Lang always had another in his heart, so Xiao Zhang cursed the other worthless on behalf of Shen Mingbei.

Brother Shen was clearly good-looking with a good personality, so how did he get into a relationship with a dog like President Qu?

In addition, thinking of the doctor’s words, Xiao Zhang couldn’t help but feel even sadder.
“Brother Shen, do you want to tell President Qu you’ve fallen ill?”

The doctor said Shen Mingbei’s health had always been unwell – irregular meals, negative moods, extreme stress, a sick mentality, and a flu-caused fever…

Oh, and some stomach trouble.

Wasn’t it time for his spouse to appear on the scene?
Yet, when Brother Shen needed help the most, there was only his assistant, and although he liked Brother Shen a lot, a working relationship was just a working relationship…
But looking at Shen Mingbei’s face and thinking about it, if Brother Shen abandoned Qu Lang, then the assistant would rise to the top again!
Xiao Zhang’s heart was raptured: I can do this!
