Chapter 218: The Abstinent Gigolo 18
At that moment, Xi Jingtong returned with her medical records in hand.
“How are you feeling?”
he asked softly.
Tang Wan looked
slightly embarrassed.
“It just hurts a lot.
Thank you for today. If you hadn’t come back in time, I’d probably be miserable
right now.”
“You’re welcome.” Xi
Jingtong’s tone remained calm. “Just be more careful in the future.”
Then he looked at her
again.
“Have you eaten lunch
yet?”
Tang Wan shook her
head. “Not yet. I was planning to eat after showering.”
“In that case, lie
down and rest for a bit. I’ll go buy food for you.”
“Okay.” Tang Wan
nodded obediently.
…
Ten minutes later, Xi
Jingtong returned carrying a bag.
After opening the
lunch box, he poured out a container of bone soup. Then, as naturally as if
he’d done it countless times before, he picked up a spoon and brought it to
Tang Wan’s lips.
Tang Wan paused
slightly.
Then she blinked and
obediently opened her mouth to drink the soup.
“You’ll need a hundred
days to properly recover from a bone injury,” Xi Jingtong said while feeding
her patiently. “Drink more bone soup during this time. It’ll help the healing
process.”
“Mhm…” Tang Wan
nodded.
Just then, Zhou
Xiaoxiao’s irritated voice suddenly sounded from outside the ward.
“I already said I
don’t want to stay hospitalized! Isn’t a cast enough?!”
“No!” Yun Zhe replied
domineeringly. “What if something happens and your injury gets worse? I’ll only
feel relieved if you stay in the hospital!”
Tang Wan frowned
slightly.
Did these two think
the hospital belonged to their family or something?
Seeing her expression
darken, Xi Jingtong calmly put down the bowl.
“Wait here,” he said.
Then he strode toward
the door and pulled it open.
Looking coldly at the
arguing pair in the corridor, he said indifferently:
“Can’t you read the
‘No Noise’ signs?”
“And miss, where
exactly is your public decency?”
The moment Zhou
Xiaoxiao saw Xi Jingtong, her eyes widened instantly.
Then she raised her
voice sharply.
“You still have the
nerve to talk?! If it weren’t for you, would I have ended up like this?!”
At the same time, Yun
Zhe glared at Xi Jingtong furiously.
“So you finally showed
up! You broke Xiaoxiao’s arm, and now I’m going to break your ribs!”
The moment he finished
speaking, he swung his fist toward Xi Jingtong.
…
Seeing this, Zhou
Xiaoxiao not only didn’t stop him—she actually looked excited.
Yun Zhe had been
fighting since middle school.
There was no way this
pretty-faced guy could beat him.
Unfortunately…
Reality was cruel.
The instant Yun Zhe’s
punch flew forward, Xi Jingtong merely tilted his head slightly while stepping
back.
In the next second,
both his hands locked onto Yun Zhe’s shoulders as he drove his knee sharply
into Yun Zhe’s abdomen.
“Ugh!”
Yun Zhe let out a
muffled groan, his face instantly turning pale.
Zhou Xiaoxiao stared
blankly.
Wait.
This guy actually knew
martial arts?!
Only after several
seconds did she react and rush anxiously toward Yun Zhe, whose body had curled
into a shrimp shape from the pain.
“A-Zhe! Are you okay?”
she asked nervously.
“I-I’m fine!” Yun Zhe
gritted out unwillingly. “I can still fight!”
Then he glared
viciously at Xi Jingtong again.
After shoving Zhou
Xiaoxiao aside, he charged forward once more.
Xi Jingtong caught his
incoming fist expressionlessly and twisted his arm backward in one smooth
movement.
“Since you insist on
getting hurt,” he said coldly, “I’ll grant your wish.”
Crack!
“AHHH!”
Yun Zhe instantly let
out a miserable scream as his right arm was dislocated on the spot.
…
Meanwhile, after
watching the scene through Little Cutie’s live feed, Tang Wan looked thoroughly
delighted.
Serves him right!
Who told him to
deceive the original owner and drive her to death?
Still, she genuinely
hadn’t expected Xi Jingtong’s combat ability to be this terrifying.
After all, Yun Zhe
practiced Taekwondo.
At that moment, Little
Cutie grinned proudly.
“Host, the villain was
actually the national high school Sanda champion! Back then, even the national
team wanted to recruit him, but he gave it up because he couldn’t leave his
grandmother behind!”
