Love So Sweet

342 Doctor Bai, You are So Fierce

When she woke up again, Zhang Li Xue could feel pain all over her body.

However, when she saw the hospital light above her head, Zhang Li Xue was finally at ease. At least, she was no longer in that dark place. Being stuck in that dark space alone frightened her so much.

Her tears streamed down her face as she recalled that moment again. Fortunately, she was saved.

Zhang Li Xue tried to move and adjust her position, but she soon realized that something was constricting her movement. Zhang Li Xue turned her head slowly and saw Bai Qi by her side.

His head was leaning on the bed as he was holding her hand tightly.

Seeing the man sleeping soundlessly beside her made her smile.

Zhang Li Xue could still remember that feeling the moment she saw Bai Qi in front of her. She had never thought that Bai Qi would come to H City to find her.

Thinking about this made her heart grow warmer.

She shifted her body slightly, wanting to look at Bai Qi’s sleeping face for while longer.

.....

However, her body was feeling sore again, making her groan.

The slight movement made Bai Qi sit up immediately. He looked all around him and finally his gaze fell on his girlfriend. Seeing that she was awake, Bai Qi stood up and placed his palm on her forehead.

Seeing that her temperature was not that high, Bai Qi finally heaved a breath in relief.

His gaze shifted to Zhang Li Xue. “How are you feeling? Did you feel pain anywhere?”

Zhang Li Xue pursed her lips. “Well, my left leg is still hurting.”

Bai Qi glanced at her legs. “The doctor said, your left leg is fractured.” He stretched his hand and pushed a few strands of hair behind her ear. “With enough rest, you should recover quickly.”

Zhang Li Xue saw that her boyfriend’s expression was too serious. She knew that he was worried about her again. “Then, Doctor Bai, when do you think I can start playing basketball again?”

His sharp gaze found hers again. “You still think about basketball at this time? Zhang Li Xue, if you didn’t rest as the doctor tell you, then, you can forget about playing basketball again.”

“Doctor Bai, you are so fierce. I was just playing with you.”

Bai Qi heaved helplessly when he saw the pout on her face.

Was this how a patient should act?

Even though she was in pain, Zhang Li Xue remained playful.

“Bai Qi, I’m thirsty.” Zhang Li Xue tugged at the corner of his shirt.

His heart grew weak upon seeing her face. “I’ll pour you some water.” He turned around and returned to her side a few seconds later carrying a glass of water. He helped her to drink and wiped the corner of her lips with tissue paper.

“That’s right. I should tell your parents that you are awake.” Bai Qi took out her phone and send a text to Zhang Yu Han.

He still remembered Zhang Yu Han’s haggard look when he left. By now, he should be in his hotel room and rest.

Bai Qi did not want to disturb the man’s sleep and decided to send him a text instead.

He put his phone on the bedside table and looked out the window. The sun should come out anytime soon. Bai Qi turned to Zhang Li Xue again and found that the girl was staring at him. “What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?” A thought came to his mind. “Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?”

“No. I’m not hungry.” When she was still stuck in that space, the rescue team had given her some food to eat.

Moreover, she did not have the appetite to eat.

Her eyes were still on Bai Qi for a long time. Zhang Li Xue thought that a worried Bai Qi was quite adorable as well.

Suddenly, Zhang Li Xue spread her arms wide. “But, Doctor Bai, I think I might need a hug.” She shifted her body to one side and spoke, “Why don’t you come up here and accompany me?”

“Your leg is still injured.”

“You will be careful. I don’t think it will be harmful if you stayed on the right side,” Zhang Li Xue said. “Besides, this bed is big enough.”

Bai Qi pondered over her words for a long time. Seeing the look on her face made him unable to reject her.

Carefully, Bai Qi climbed up and lay by Zhang Li Xue’s side. He was careful not to touch her injured legs.

The moment he lay by her side, Zhang Li Xue turned and buried her face into Bai Qi’s chest. She could hear his heartbeat and felt his warm body. Her arms snaked around his waist as she hugged him tightly.

Her movement shocked him a bit. Bai Qi was worried that he might accidentally injure his little fairy and wanted to pull away.

“I thought that I was never going to see you again.”

Zhang Li Xue’s words were soft, but Bai Qi could hear them clearly. His movement halted. He thought of how his little fairy was stuck alone under the building and how scared she should be.

Thinking that she was still scared and traumatized by that incident, Bai Qi no longer want to pull away. Instead, he hugged her back.

“Bai Qi, I was so frightened.”

His throat bobbed. “It’s alright. You’re safe now. I’m here. I will stay with you, alright?” Other than some consoling words, he did not know what he should say.

He was also frightened that he would never see Zhang Li Xue again.

However, Bai Qi reminded himself again to stay positive. No matter what, he will find her and Zhang Li Xue would be safe.

If it was not for that, Bai Qi did not know how he was going to function.

Zhang Li Xue was too important for him.

He loved her very much that his heart was going to burst just at the thought of her.

“No matter what, I will always find you,” Bai Qi whispered. He lowered his head and pressed his lips on her forehead for a long time. “But Zhang Li Xue, you are not allowed to scare me like this again.”
