Chapter 52 -52: He Will Break Your Legs
“You’re not dizzy now, are you?” Xie Yanchuan asked gently.
Although he brought food especially for Xu Jinzhi to eat, Xie Yanchuan had originally planned to wait until after her IV finished and when she felt less uncomfortable.
If she still felt dizzy, Xie Yanchuan worried that Xu Jinzhi might feel sick and want to vomit after eating.
Xu Jinzhi took a moment to seriously assess herself, and it seemed that she indeed wasn’t dizzy anymore, and her overall spirit had improved a lot.
Earlier, she felt so unwell that she had no strength at all, and she was in a daze.
“I’m not dizzy. If I get dizzy later on, it’ll definitely be because I’m faint from hunger,” Xu Jinzhi stated earnestly.
Xie Yanchuan felt somewhat helpless, but it was getting late, and it was already past the normal time for a meal.
Well, as long as she wasn’t feeling uncomfortable, that was what mattered.
“Then wait for a moment,” Xie Yanchuan said softly. He then pulled out the hidden tray from the hospital bed, set it up, and took out the food from the thermal container.
Xu Jinzhi’s left hand was hooked up to the IV, so it was actually quite convenient for her to eat.
Once the food was laid out, her already hungry stomach started to protest even more loudly, making growling noises.
Xu Jinzhi, as if she hadn’t eaten for a long time, was eager to eat something.
After taking the first bite of the food, she looked at Xie Yanchuan with an extremely touched expression, feeling as if she had been instantly cured.
Xie Yanchuan thought Xu Jinzhi was being a bit dramatic, but seeing her with an appetite made him truly happy at heart.
Having taken another two bites, Xu Jinzhi suddenly remembered something, “You haven’t had dinner yet, have you?”
Xie Yanchuan had come straight over after receiving the call, definitely not having had time for dinner.
“It’s fine, you eat first,” Xie Yanchuan said.
Xu Jinzhi frowned slightly, “True, I have a fever, and it’s probably better for you not to eat, just in case you catch it too.”
Watching Xu Jinzhi’s expression, Xie Yanchuan mistakenly thought she believed he was avoiding eating because he was disgusted by her.
So Xie Yanchuan hurriedly explained, “I actually prepared quite a lot of dishes, so each dish is in a small portion.”
“But since you have a fever, it’s best to eat something light, and I thought these two dishes would be suitable, so I brought only these two.”
“I was worried you might not have enough to eat.”
Because the portions were small and Xie Yanchuan knew Xu Jinzhi enjoyed the food he cooked, as she used to eat a lot of it, he was concerned there wouldn’t be enough for her.
He had no intention of being disdainful towards Xu Jinzhi.
Even though Xu Jinzhi was feverish, it would be perfectly normal for him not to share her meal, but Xie Yanchuan still wanted to explain that it wasn’t like that.
“Why don’t you go out and grab something to eat first, then come back?” suggested Xu Jinzhi.
Xie Yanchuan shook his head, “It’s okay, I can eat later.”
Xie Yanchuan truly felt it was alright. There were priorities in all matters, and he could just eat later.
But Xu Jinzhi directly glared at Xie Yanchuan, clearly disapproving, and eventually, she put down her chopsticks decisively, “I’ll have someone send something over.”
Xie Yanchuan wanted to refuse, but seeing Xu Jinzhi’s earnest expression, he really couldn’t find the words to say no.
After all, it wasn’t a big deal, and he didn’t need to argue with Xu Jinzhi over it.
Xu Jinzhi directly called the hotel to hurry up and deliver the meal. After hanging up the phone, Xu Jinzhi continued to eat, while Xie Yanchuan sat beside her and watched.
In the middle of it, Xie Yanchuan called a nurse over to change the IV bag. Although he could have done it himself, he wasn’t a doctor at the hospital, and there was no need to inconvenience others, so he directly called a nurse.
By the time the hotel delivered the dinner, Xu Jinzhi had already eaten her fill.

So, as Xie Yanchuan ate, Xu Jinzhi just kept watching him, which made him embarrassed. He even asked Xu Jinzhi if she hadn’t eaten enough and wanted more.
Xu Jinzhi shook her head, “I just haven’t seen you for so many days, I missed you a bit.”
Xu Jinzhi spoke her mind very straightforwardly, as she always did, never one to beat around the bush.
Xie Yanchuan fell silent for a moment, his ears reddening slightly. He thought that Xu Jinzhi must really not be feeling unwell anymore, as she even had the energy to tease him.
Xie Yanchuan said nothing and lowered his head to continue eating.
Afterward, Xie Yanchuan didn’t leave and stayed in the hospital to accompany Xu Jinzhi until all her IVs were finished.
Lin Baiyong came over again after Xu Jinzhi finished her IVs to confirm that her fever had gone, before he said, “It was just caused by a chill. Now that the fever is gone, there should be no problem.”
“But after you go back, still stick to taking the medicine for one more day, to prevent the fever from coming back.”
“Okay, thanks for your trouble,” Xie Yanchuan said.
“What’s the trouble? Let’s all get together when you’re free!” Lin Baiyong said.
Xie Yanchuan nodded and then left the hospital with Xu Jinzhi. Assistant Chen and the others had already left after Xie Yanchuan arrived, so now it was up to Xie Yanchuan to take Xu Jinzhi back home.
On the way back, Xu Jinzhi received a phone call from her father who was also on a business trip. Upon learning of Xu Jinzhi’s illness, he had hurriedly called.
Xu Jinzhi had no choice but to explain to Xu Zhen, and then repeatedly assured her father that she was fine now and would take good care of herself from now on, before hanging up the phone after a good while.
Xie Yanchuan listened the entire time; the car was very quiet, and occasionally he could even hear what Xu Zhen said on the other end of the phone.
To tell the truth, Xie Yanchuan was quite envious of their relationship.
Xu Jinzhi once said that he’d understand when he had a daughter. At that moment, Xie Yanchuan thought that when he had a daughter, he would indeed be just like his future father-in-law.
“Ah!” Xu Jinzhi sighed.
Only then did Xie Yanchuan come back to his senses, turned his gaze to look at her, and softly asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing much, just thinking about how my old man has it tough, worrying all the time,” Xu Jinzhi said, and then couldn’t help but laugh.
“Your uncle is just worried about you,” Xie Yanchuan said.
Xu Jinzhi suddenly laughed again, then turned her whole body to face Xie Yanchuan, “Did you hear what he said to me at the end of the call?”
Xie Yanchuan was taken aback, having been somewhat distracted and not really listening to what her future father-in-law had said in the end.
Seeing Xie Yanchuan not speaking, Xu Jinzhi said with interest, “He said to make sure I go straight home, and if I don’t spend the night at home, he will break your legs.”
Xie Yanchuan looked speechless, why would they break his legs?
It wasn’t him who kept Xu Jinzhi from going back; it was always Xu Jinzhi tempting him, and it was he who had firmly resisted Xu Jinzhi’s temptations.
