老攻身患绝症[穿书] (Eng)

45. Don't get sick again

Xie Yang didn't know how long he slept like this. Once he woke up, his ability core had stabilized and his body was unprecedentedly relaxed. The room was dark and the smell of disinfectant wafted in the air.

It wasn't the hotel. He immediately became sober and sat up. The person on the accompanying bed next to him also sat up. The person got out of bed and turned on the lamp on the bedside table. Then he skillfully reached out and touched Xie Yang's forehead.

Xie Yang raised his eyes to look at this person. It was Qiu Xing, who was giving off a low air pressure and had a dark face.

Wu Shui, that traitor.

Xie Yang explained, "I... this time, I must've been too tired and became sick."

Qiu Xing didn't speak immediately. He first rang the call bell before sitting on the bed. He watched Xie Yang and spoke in a voice that was hoarse from just waking up. "There is no next time."

The ability upgrade was uncontrollable and there would definitely be another time. Xie Yang nodded without pressure. "No next time."

Qiu Xing's expression turned cloudy. He reached out to touch Xie Yang's face before leaning over to hug Xie Yang, his breathing slow.

Xie Yang questioned, "How long have I been sleeping?"

"Two days." Qiu Xing's arms tightened and he scolded. "You actually wanted to hide this from me and told Wu Shui to lie to me. Who gave you the courage?"

"You gave it."

"......" Qiu Xing released Xie Yang and stared at him coldly.

Xie Yang smiled and asked, "How did you find out that something was wrong?"

Qiu Xing sneered. "I never thought that in this life, you would use honorifics when replying to me."

"......" It was really hard for Wu Shui.

Xie Yang was in a good mood and took the initiative to hold Qiu Xing's hand. He asked, "When did you come back? What was the result of the examination? What did Dr Kirkman say? Are you going to change the treatment plan?"

Qiu Xing sneered and held Xie Yang's hand back. His expression softened and he replied to the questions one after another. "I arrived at noon today. The results of the inspection are similar to the last time. Dr Kirkman organized a team of experts for a meeting. Once the new treatment plan is determined, he will bring a team to see me. Xie Yang."

"Huh?"

"Don't get sick again."

***

The doctor came over and briefly checked Xie Yang's body. The result of the examination was very good. Xie Yang's fever had subsided and he didn't have the side effects that other high fever patients would have after the fever subsided. He was healthy.

"Tomorrow, you can leave the hospital."

Qiu Xing was still worried. "This is the second time he suddenly got such a high fever. Every time he goes on a business trip, he gets a bad fever. During the fever, he keeps sleeping but recovers immediately after it subsides. Is his body really okay?"

The doctor wasn't certain when he heard his words and checked Xie Yang again. Nothing was wrong. The doctor thought about it and said, "If you aren't at ease, I can give Mr Xie Yang a detailed medical check-up."

Xie Yang interrupted. "No, my symptoms are just a bit different from other people when I get a fever. There are no problems. Thank you for your hard work, Doctor. Go and rest."

"Xie Yang, you-"

"I'm sleepy."

Qiu Xing shut up. He watched Xie Yang for a while with a frown before arranging for Xie Yang to sleep. He got up and sent the doctor away. Xie Yang lay down and heard Qiu Xing talk to the doctor after he sent the doctor out of the ward. Around 5 minutes later, the door of the ward opened and Qiu Xing came back.
