Chapter 81
81 Exchanging Contact
Zhang Yi Hai watched as the young doctor left the room. Then, he turned to his sister again and spoke, “Sister, are you feeling unwell?”
Zhang Li Xue noticed that his brother was glancing at the door and could guess what was in his mind. “I’m fine. My stomach isn’t that painful anymore. I keep telling Uncle Qi Zheng that he should let me out today. But he insisted for me to stay for another day.”
Seeing that his sister was her usual chattery self made him feel more at ease. At least, he knew that his sister was healthy enough.
“Just stay another day for an observation,” Zhang Yi Hai said. “Why did the doctor come over just now?”
“Uncle Qi Zheng is just too worried. He lets someone come over to check on me every now and then.”
Zhang Yi Hai thought that his sister’s explanation was possible. Then, he stopped worrying again.
Meanwhile, Zhang Li Xue was secretly observing her brother’s expression. The boy continued to worry that someone wanted to get close to her again.
She couldn’t help but think that this situation was quite funny.
Zhang Li Xue recalled Mu Zhen Yu’s phone call a while ago. Fortunately, her brother was away when Brother Zhen Yu called. Otherwise, who knows just what will this boy think?

She turned away and continued to chat with the triplets.
However, having too many people worrying about her was slowly giving her a headache.
“Alright,” Zhang Li Xue waved her hand weakly. “I’m a little tired. Why don’t you go and grab something to eat while I rest? The food in the cafeteria is quite good.”
The triplets did not argue. After exchanging some words, the triplets then leave the wardroom.
Zhang Li Xue finally let out a breath of relief when everything around her turned silent.
...
The next morning, Zhang Li Xue was finally allowed to be discharged.
Zhang Li Xue could not stop smiling the moment she heard that she was allowed to leave the hospital.
Staying obediently and not doing anything other than staying in bed was something that she could not do.
“Li Xue, how about staying here for another night?” Qi Zheng saw the happy smile on the girl’s face and could not stop himself from teasing her.
“Uncle Qi Zheng, please don’t joke around with me. I really can’t stay another day. Let’s not waste the hospital’s resources. There should be some other patient who needs to use the bed. ”
“Actually, I think it’s a good idea for you to stay as well,” Zhang Yu Han decided to join in teasing his daughter. “I worry about your gastric problem. Maybe we should let the doctors check on this problem as well.”
Zhang Li Xue batted her eyelids at her father. “If I stayed another day, then Mommy will have to stay and accompany me as well. Daddy, could you bear to sleep without my Mommy for another night?”
Li Qin Yao pinched her daughter’s arms.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yu Han’s expression turned darker.
Seeing their exchange made Qi Zheng laugh. “It’s alright. I will let Li Xue consult the dietician. Li Xue, you have to remember to eat on time. Otherwise, your parents would worry again.”
“Uncle Qi Zheng, I know.”
In the end, it was decided that Zhang Li Xue could leave the hospital and continue to recuperate at home.
A breath of relief escaped her. Zhang Li Xue thought that it was really the best for her to stay home. At least, there would be a lot of things she can do whenever she was bored.
Moreover, her mother will no longer have to sleep uncomfortably at the hospital.
Zhang Li Xue began to pack her bags as her father left the room to discuss some matters with her Uncle Qi Zheng.
Once she was done, her mother went away to settle some paperwork while she had to stay in the room and waited for her parents to return.
She was already an adult, but her parents made her feel as if she was still a little child. She liked the feeling of being pampered, but sometimes, she worry about how she was going to survive without her parents by her side.
Seeing that it took her parents a while to return, Zhang Li Xue decided to wait for them outside.
The corridor was quiet. As she was staying in the VIP wings, the surroundings were very quiet than the usual ward. Even the doctors’ and nurses’ steps became lighter.
Zhang Li Xue stood at the window and looked at the scenery outside. When she heard the sounds of approaching footsteps, Zhang Li Xue quickly turned around, thinking that her father had returned.
However, the person who was walking in her direction was Doctor Bai Qi.
Her eyes lit up. Zhang Li Xue started to wave her hand at the young doctor. “Doctor Bai!”
A helpless sigh curled on his lips. Bai Qi walked over and noticed that Zhang Li Xue was no longer wearing a patient’s gown. “I heard that you are discharged today. Congratulations.”
“Thank you.” Zhang Li Xue laughed happily. “Doctor Bai, thank you for your care for the past few days.”
“You don’t have to worry about it. It’s my job,” Bai Qi said. “But, you have to remember to stay home and recuperate. Otherwise, your wound would hurt.”
Zhang Li Xue nodded. “I know.” A thought came to her mind and Zhang Li Xue stood up straight. “That’s right. Doctor Bai, can I get your number?”
Bai Qi was surprised by her sudden request. “You... want my number?”
Zhang Li Xue waved her hand when she realized how her request might make the young doctor misunderstand. “Ah, no. I didn’t mean anything.” She let out a cough. “Didn’t I say that I will treat you to something good later? Since I have given my words, of course, I will have to do it.”
Bai Qi pursed his lips. There was a complicated feeling in his heart.
“If it’s too much, then, how about I look for you directly at the hospital later?” Zhang Li Xue continued when she saw that Bai Qi did not seem as if he was going to agree.
“No. It’s alright. You can have my number,” Bai Qi said. “Just that... I am busy most of the time. So, I might not be able to answer your call or text immediately.”
“That’s alright. Uncle Qi Zheng is also like this.”
Bai Qi took out his phone and the two of them started to exchange contact.
“I saved it.” Zhang Li Xue smiled as she looked at the man’s profile picture. “Doctor Bai, When I get better, I’ll contact you again and treat you.”
