Chapter 328 - Rejoicing In His Misfortune
Although he felt that it was awkward, Huo Yun Chen found that it was easier for him to move around with the caretaker beside him. The man called Xiao An was helping him out of the restroom when someone knocked on his door.
Simultaneously, both men looked up at the door and saw a nurse walk in. Huo Yun Chen quickly recognized this nurse as Nurse Xia.
The moment their eyes met, there was a complicated look on Nurse Xia's expression.
Huo Yun Chen thought that this was a little strange. However, he could not pinpoint what was it that he found strange about this nurse.
Xia Yu watched as the caretaker helped Huo Yun Chen to move to his bed with worry. She finally let out a breath of relief upon seeing that the tall man had the correct posture as he half carried the celebrity to the bed.
Fortunately, Huo Yun Chen's agency had sent a capable caretaker to look after him.
"Nurse Xia, why are you here?" Huo Yun Chen spoke after he was properly seated on the bed.
Xia Yu snapped out of her trance. A look of surprise appeared on her face when she realized that Huo Yun Chen had remembered her name. She adjusted her composure and walked over to look at his injured ankle without saying a word.
Her eyes narrowed upon noticing that the swelling had indeed gotten worst.
Xia Yu took out the report clipped at the end of Huo Yun Chen's bed and read the doctor's report.
Her lips tilted into half-smile.
She was right. This person will have to stay in the hospital a few days longer due to his injury.
Huo Yun Chen saw the slight smile on the nurse's face and thought that it seemed more like a mocking smile.
He could not help recalling this nurse's scolding when she found him wandering around the hospital's corridor in the middle of the night. Last night, she had warned him that his injury will get worst and he will have to prolong his stay in the hospital.
Huo Yun Chen had thought that this nurse was only trying to scare him. However, the doctor walked into his room in the morning and told him this bad news.
Seeing the smile on the nurse's face, Huo Yun Chen could not help but wonder if this nurse was rejoicing in his misfortune. Could it be that this nurse is probably his anti-fan?
Huo Yun Chen was worried that this nurse would sell his information out if she was indeed an anti-fan.
Xia Yu looked up again and saw that Huo Yun Chen was watching her with a slight frown on his face. Then, without saying anything, Xia Yu walked out and closed the door behind her.
"What was that about?" Huo Yun Chen mumbled. The space between his brow creased, as he was feeling a little displeased with how the nurse had acted.
She had come without warning and left without saying anything.
Huo Yun Chen was displeased with her attitude.
"Brother Huo, the nurse is probably doing her evening round," Xiao An spoke. Although he was young, he was someone with experience of staying in the hospital as a caretaker.
Huo Yun Chen heard his words and decided not to comment on them. He glanced at the clock and spoke again, "Xiao An, you go and have your dinner first. I'll be alright."
The caretaker hesitated for a while before he nodded. "Then, I'll head to the cafeteria first. Brother Huo, if there's anything, you can call my number."
Once Xiao An left the room, Huo Yun Chen leaned back on his pillow and took his phone which was on the bedside table.
He scrolled the entertainment news and saw a few reports about his stay in the hospital. It was said that a few reporters came to find news about him.
Fortunately, the hospital's security and privacy were very good. The guards were quick to control the situation and had prevented them from gathering around the hospital area.
As he got bored, Huo Yun Chen decided to log in to 'Legend of the Sky' to kill some monster. He was working on a solo mission when someone pushed the door open. A look of surprise appeared on his face upon noticing that it was Nurse Xia again.
However, he was too busy concentrating to kill the monster to look at the nurse again.
Xia Yu saw that the man was busy and waited. Once she heard the background music had changed from the thrilling battle mode to the victorious mode, she walked over and placed a few medicines on his table. She looked around and frowned when she could not find the caretaker.
"Where's your caretaker?"
"I let him go and have his dinner first."
Xia Yu's expression eased up. She had thought that the caretaker had left and was worrying that Huo Yun Chen will want to do everything himself. Although she did not know Huo Yun Chen well, Xia Yu had seen a few patients who insisted to do everything themselves despite their injury. Some patients were too proud and did not want to appear useless.
"Your ankle might throb in pain in the middle of the night. When that happens and you cannot bear with the pain, just take two doses of these pills," Xia Yu said.
Huo Yun Chen's gaze finally shifted towards the medicine. He placed his phone on the table and picked up the medicine as if to inspect it.
Because the game was still on, Xia Yu was able to look at what was on his screen. Her lips pursed into a thin line when she saw the character standing in the middle of a groove with a few monsters wandering around.
Her heart skipped a beat but before Huo Yun Chen could notice anything, Xia Yu quickly shifted her gaze away and turned around to leave.
"Nurse Xia."
Hearing him call her name, Xia Yu halted and turned to him with a puzzled expression on her face. "What's wrong?" Her gaze shifted towards Huo Yun Chen's phone again and thought that the game displayed was a little annoying.
"Why do I feel as if you don't like me that much?" Huo Yun Chen asked. "It seemed that every time you see me, you would have this unhappy look on your face. Did I do something to upset you?"
Xia Yu was surprised when she heard his question. However, she quickly composed herself and said, "Mr. Huo, don't think too much.. My face is usually like this."
