After a few rings, the other party picked up.

The girl’s soft and sweet voice sounded a little surprised. “Qiao Chen, is that you?”

“Mm, it’s me.” Qiao Chen looked at the time on his wrist and looked at the darkening sky.

He kept quiet for a while before asking softly, “Shen Xin, you… are not coming tonight?”

Shen Xin was silent for a while before replying, “Today is your 18th birthday, so I have to attend your birthday party no matter what. But something happened to me, so I can’t go.

“I’m sorry, Qiao Chen.” Shen Xin coughed a few times.

Her voice sounded a little hoarse and different from usual.

Qiao Chen pursed his lips and suddenly felt disappointed.

But when he spoke, his tone didn’t reveal any abnormality. “Is that so? I just felt like I didn’t see you tonight, so I called to ask. Since you have something on, then go on. I’m hanging up.”

“Mm. Happy birthday, Qiao Chen.” Shen Xin coughed a few times as she spoke.

Qiao Chen finally realized that something was wrong.

He frowned. “Are you sick?”

Shen Xin kept quiet for a while before saying casually, “I think I caught a cold. I’ll be fine after taking some medicine. Are you concerned about me?”

Qiao Chen frowned again and pursed his lips. A few seconds later, he said, “Don’t think too much. I’m just asking casually.”

“Ha.” Shen Xin laughed. “I knew I was overthinking. You must need to deal with a lot of people at the banquet. You must be very busy, so I won’t disturb you.

“I’ll hang up first.”

Qiao Chen didn’t want to hang up.

He still had a lot to say.

For example, he wanted to ask when she would transfer schools.

For example, he wanted to ask her where she was going.

He wanted to ask her if she could stay.

Many words were already in his mouth, but he hesitated to say them.

He wondered what position he should take to keep her.

He’d hurt her for three whole years.

Now that he wanted her to stay, what would she think of him?

Moreover, if she was already determined to leave, would she stay just because he asked her to?

Qiao Chen thought about it.

Before he could decide what to do, he heard Shen Xin say softly, “Goodbye, Qiao Chen. You have to take good care of yourself in the future. Also, you have to be happy.”

Qiao Chen realized that Shen Xin was about to hang up and panicked. Just as he was about to speak, he heard another woman’s voice. “Miss Shen, don’t play with your cell phone. You’re badly injured now, you should rest.”

“I’m sorry, Head Nurse. I received a call from a friend. I’ll hang up immediately.”

“Wait.” Qiao Chen’s expression changed. Before Shen Xin hung up, he stopped her and frowned. “Shen Xin, what’s wrong? Are you in the hospital now?”

If it was just a small cold, there was no need to go to the hospital.

Moreover, the head nurse on the other end of the line said that it was a serious injury. It was just an ordinary cold, how could it be serious?

Qiao Chen felt that Shen Xin was hiding something from her.

She must be sick.
