Chapter 186: Visiting Xu Chengkun (2)

This time it was Chen Xiuqi’s turn to be tongue-tied. He looked at Su Yaya and couldn’t figure out how to answer for a moment. He knew that this had nothing to do with Yaya too. Nobody could have known that it would fall down. Su Yaya just so happened to be standing there so she really couldn’t be blamed for it. But he was just worried!

“Fine, forget it. It’s good that you’re safe.” Chen Xiuqi reached out to pet her head. It was a way to comfort her, but also himself.

Su Yaya responded with an “mhm” and felt a little better. Then, when she thought back to how serious he made it out to be, Xu Chengkun was now a great savior to her after saving her like that. So, she asked Chen Xiuqi, “Since Xu Chengkun saved me, how should I thank him?”

Chen Xiuqi looked at her and said, “I’ll deal with that. You don’t have to do anything.”

“How can that do? He saved me so I have to thank him no matter what. Only then can I show my sincerity,” Su Yaya told him seriously.

After some thought, it did make sense after all. So, Chen Xiuqi asked her, “How are you planning to thank him?”

Su Yaya cocked her head to the side in thought. “Why don’t you bring me over to say thank you in person?”

“Just that?”

Su Yaya nodded. “Just that.”

A smile curved up on Chen Xiuqi’s face, then he reached out to pinch her cheek. “Don’t you think that’s too apathetic to your benefactor?”

Su Yaya responded, “Uh...”

Chen Xiuqi’s lips curved up into a smile. “At the very least, you should get him a big gift!”

“Is that okay?” Su Yaya asked, looking up.

Chen Xiuqi took her hand and sat beside her, speaking seriously. “That’s how it should be done! He did save you.”

Since Chen Xiuqi said so, there wasn’t much Su Yaya could say. So, she answered, “Okay then, we’ll do as you say.”

Chen Xiuqi smiled. He didn’t expect it to be so simple, so he said, “I’ll bring you over right now, then.”

“Okay.” Su Yaya quickly tried to get out of bed.

Chen Xiuqi stopped her and said, “Your foot is injured. I’ll go get you a wheelchair.”

Since her sprained ankle was still throbbing with pain, there wasn’t much Su Yaya could say. Chen Xiuqi went out to find a nurse and soon found her a wheelchair.

When she saw Chen Xiuqi coming in with the wheelchair, Su Yaya couldn’t help but laugh. “If I go over on a wheelchair, it’ll look like my injury is too serious.”

Chen Xiuqi eyed her and said, “You nearly became seriously injured, though.”

Su Yaya pouted and said, “Got it.”

After that, she reached her arms out to Chen Xiuqi, saying cutely, “Hug.”

That was such a coquettish scene that it went straight to Chen Xiuqi’s heart. When he saw the look of need in her eyes, he quickly came over and carried her onto the wheelchair.

Su Yaya swung her injured foot and laughed. “Let’s go.”

“Sit still,” Chen Xiuqi said in a deep voice from behind.

“I’m sitting fine,” Su Yaya quickly responded.

Chen Xiuqi pushed her out of the ward and headed to Xu Chengkun’s room next door.

In the ward next to theirs, Xu Chengkun’s agent, Brother Li, was looking at him with a frown on his face. “So tell me. You injured your arm and the doctor is telling you to rest for several months. Things will be bad if you delay the shooting.”

“I didn’t think too much at that time, I just needed to save her. After all, it’s not like I could just stand around and watch her get hit in that situation, right?” Xu Chengkun was a righteous person so he couldn’t just sit by and watch someone get in danger.

Brother Li sighed. “I understand that just as well, and I know you’re not that kinda guy. I’m not telling you that you shouldn’t have saved her, I”m just saying that you’ve suffered such a great injury that you wouldn’t even say you’re hurt. You’re delaying things and you even made your fans worry. Even your family is worried.”

“It’ll be fine,” Xu Chengkun laughed. “I’ll make a post on Weibo later to tell everyone I’m safe so don’t worry, Brother Li. Even though my arm is hurt, I just don’t have to move it and I’ll be fine. It wouldn’t be a problem in acting. I can be discharged in a few days.”

Brother Li wasn’t a bad person either, and it’s not like he thought he shouldn’t have saved her. He was just worried about Xu Chengkun and felt bad for him.
