Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 258 - 257: Awkward (Third Update)

Gu Xiaoqing felt like dying from the embarrassment.

But her head was still a bit dizzy, she couldn’t afford to be delicate anymore.

Through the bathroom’s glass window, Gu Xiaoqing could see Fang Shaohan standing at the doorway, although his back was to her, but the door was definitely not soundproof.

No time to think more, Gu Xiaoqing quickly undid her pants, the hospital gown’s pants were very loose, and she began to urinate.

The flowing sound made Gu Xiaoqing blush, even though she tried hard to stop the flow speed, she couldn’t prevent the sound from penetrating.

Damn it, Fang Shaohan must have heard it.

Gu Xiaoqing really wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

In two lifetimes added together, she had never encountered such an embarrassing situation.

Flushed the water.

Finally, it was over.

Gu Xiaoqing pulled up her pants, feeling a bit wobbly, her head seemed even dizzier now.

Before Gu Xiaoqing could call Fang Shaohan, the bathroom door had already opened, and Fang Shaohan walked in, still calm and strong, taking the bottle of IV fluid and placing it back in Gu Xiaoqing’s hand, then wrapped her up and carried her back to the ward, laying her on the bed.

Tucked her in and hung the bottle of IV fluid.

Gu Xiaoqing pulled up the blanket, covering her face, utterly mortified.

The moment Fang Shaohan turned his head, the corners of his mouth slightly curved upward, there was unmistakably a trace of amusement.

"Sleep."

Fang Shaohan tossed out a sentence, then lay down fully dressed on another empty hospital bed, closed his eyes, and soon a soft snoring sound was heard.

Gu Xiaoqing finally felt at ease.

It seemed Fang Shaohan didn’t think much of it, he was just taking care of a patient.

Only she herself would have those dirty thoughts, thinking he would mind such a thing.

Gu Xiaoqing closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Fang Shaohan opened his eyes, gazing at that porcelain-like delicate face in the dark. Perhaps everything that had happened was the only intimacy they could share, perhaps coming to visit Gu Xiaoqing this time was indeed the right decision.

Shanghai truly was his lucky place.

A subtle smile played on his lips, thinking "You are mine and can’t escape."

On the next morning, Gu Xiaoqing woke up. Having slept for so long, it was about time to wake up.

The needle for the IV drip in her hand had already been removed, must have happened while she was asleep.

Looking at the bed beside her, it was already empty, the blankets were neatly folded like tofu cubes.

Gu Xiaoqing felt a slight disappointment, not seeing Fang Shaohan, who had taken care of her all night, a part of her was reluctant to let go.

With her head no longer dizzy, Gu Xiaoqing sat up, wanting to get out of bed, wash her face, and freshen up a bit, believing she must look quite haggard now.

Isn’t this the saying "women dress for those who please them"?

Smack!

Gu Xiaoqing wanted to give herself a big slap. What nonsense is this? Could it be she had some improper thoughts about Fang Shaohan?

He’s Fang Shaonan’s brother. Even putting aside the issue with Fang Shaonan, considering the Fang Family’s status and identity, it’s impossible for them to accept a merchant’s daughter as a daughter-in-law.

This is a vast chasm.

Sighing inwardly, was she entertaining any illusions?

Fang Shaohan excelled in every aspect, being a twenty-six-year-old captain of the criminal investigation team, with a promising future, and exceptionally handsome, he was the ideal husband choice in any woman’s mind.

But what about herself?

It wasn’t that Gu Xiaoqing was self-deprecating, but she always felt she wasn’t special, her looks were just fair, though not ugly, definitely not in the beauty category, plus her own psychological age, she thought she and Fang Shaohan weren’t from the same world.

Such a person was only fit for admiration, but certainly not suitable as a husband choice. Gu Xiaoqing wasn’t concerned about unrealistic love matters.

Gu Xiaoqing lowered her eyes, she needed to face reality.

Walking into the bathroom, she saw herself in the mirror, her hair messy like a pile of straw, face white as a ghost, with a slight dark shadow beneath her eyes, and eyes that couldn’t hide the sadness.

Gu Xiaoqing, what’s wrong with you?

This isn’t something you should long for.

That person belongs to another world.

Be yourself, do what you want to do, live freely, you will definitely find the love in your heart, surely there’s someone destined from a past life waiting to meet you.

Gu Xiaoqing cheered herself up.

Washed her face, tidied her hair, kneaded her cheeks, finally looking a bit better, with a hint of rosiness, she walked out of the bathroom just in time to see Fang Shaohan pushing the door open, carrying a few disposable meal boxes in his hand.

Seeing Gu Xiaoqing, there was joy in his eyes.

"You’re up, then let’s eat. It’s already been a full day and night, you must be starving."

Fang Shaohan walked over naturally, supporting Gu Xiaoqing to the bed, letting her sit down, placing a pillow behind her back, then pushed over the table used for patients to eat on.

Opened the meal boxes, there was fragrant millet porridge, along with soup dumplings, eggs, and pickles.

Gu Xiaoqing indeed felt hungry.

Her stomach growled involuntarily, she glanced at Fang Shaohan, thinking to herself, it seemed every time they met she was at her most disheveled, or in dire straits, what debt did Fang Shaohan owe her from the past life to repay like this in this life?

A spoon was thrust into her hand, pointing to the meal box, "Eat up."

Fang Shaohan peeled a tea egg on the side, placing the peeled egg in Gu Xiaoqing’s bowl.

Gu Xiaoqing felt a sweet warmth in her heart, no matter what, she would enjoy this moment of warmth.

Just this once, she would indulge herself.

Sipping the millet porridge, eating the soup dumplings and egg. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

After the two finished eating, Fang Shaohan cleaned up the place, throwing the trash into the garbage bin outside, and even opened the window to air out the room.

The ward was air-conditioned, so the windows were usually tightly shut.

Fang Shaohan helped Gu Xiaoqing lie down, asking: "How do you feel today? Still dizzy?"

He even touched Gu Xiaoqing’s forehead, it seemed the fever had gone down.

Gu Xiaoqing shook her head: "I’m fine, I’ve gotten much better, I’m not dizzy today. I’ll have the doctor check me, I think I can be discharged."

Fang Shaohan dissatisfiedly looked left and right then said: "It’s best if you stay one more day for observation, you don’t know how you looked yesterday, like you were about to die, I was scared to death. You’re really not taking care of yourself. While unconscious, you were all the time crying out for someone to save you."

Gu Xiaoqing’s heart sank, it seemed that during her feverish stupor, she had thought she was back at that moment of death, the intense desire to survive and call for help.
