Chapter 1757: 1757
The ways of the world were indeed inescapable .
Ye Qianqian sat on her couch feeling bored . She picked up her cellphone and opened Shen Zhilie’s chatbox .
Shen Zhilie was at the top of her WeChat list . His profile picture was a photo of him in his white medical coat . He looked fine .
She had not seen that face for a few days .
She was scrolling through and rereading their previous chats when her phone suddenly chimed and a notification appeared .
It was a WeChat message from Shen Zhilie .
Shen Zhilie’s message was a little bizarre and consisted of only a few words . “Have you seen stars before?”
Ye Qianqian blinked her eyes, not getting his meaning .
Sissi: [???]
Shen Zhilie: [?]
Sissi: [I’ve seen them before . ]
Shen Zhilie: [Have you seen a five-pointed star before?]
Sissi: [image]
Ye Qianqian doodled a five-pointed and sent the image over, followed by a playful emoticon .
Shen Zhilie: [Have you seen a four-pointed star before?]
Sissi: [Um… Is there such a thing?]
Shen Zhilie: [I miss you . ]
At the same time the message was sent, confetti of four-pointed stars cascaded down her WeChat window, sparkling as they landed .
Ye Qianqian felt her heart go warm and giggled to herself .

She selected her video call option and dialed his number .
Just as the call connected, Shen Zhilie rejected it .
Shen Zhilie’s reply immediately came . [The elders are talking at the moment . It’s not convenient for me to answer the call . ]
Sissi: [The elders are speaking, and you dare to be distracted right under their noses? Are you tired of living?]
Shen Zhilie: [It’s fine as long as I don’t flaunt it openly . [smirk] My handsome face gives me special privileges . ]
Sissi: [You’re so shameless!]
Shen Zhilie: [Hha!]
Sissi: [When will you be coming back?]
Sissi: [I miss you too . ]

Sissi: [Tongtong will probably be going back in the next few days . Come back soon . ]
Shen Zhilie felt his heart flutter when he read Ye Qianqian’s message .
She said she missed him .
Only heaven knew how rare it was for Ye Qianqian to say something like that .
He looked at his hand, which was still connect to the drip, and replied, [It’ll probably be more than a few days . I won’t be done so soon . ]
Ye Qianqian was greatly disappointed and texted back: [Give me a call when you’re free . ]
Barely a few moments after Ye Qianqian sent out the message, Shen Zhilie’s call came in .
Ye Qianqian elatedly answered it, “Hello?”
“You’re awake so early,” Shen Zhilie’s voice lazily said . It was low and sounded as if he had just woken up not too long ago .

Hearing his voice made Ye Qianqian’s heart soar . She felt her heartbeat going crazy .
“Hey, aren’t your elders still talking?”
“I told them I was having a stomachache and exited the room,” Shen Zhilie replied without missing a beat or blushing . “Life has been so hard lately with them breathing down my neck all day long . Sigh…”
“Alright! I’ll let Old Shen know! Thank you so much, Comrade Xiao Gu!” A bright and familiar female voice rang out clearly .
Shen Zhilie jumped back in shock as the door to the hospital room opened without any warning . The sound of Fang Tongtong’s voice was especially jarring .
Shen Zhilie quickly used his hand to cover the receiver . The moment he did so, Fang Tongtong went silent .
Fang Tongtong was carrying two portions of breakfast in her hands . She looked at Shen Zhilie .
When she saw Shen Zhilie’s hand covering the receiver, she was taken aback and guiltily asked, “Are you… Are you on the phone?”
“Why do I feel like I just heard Fang Tongtong’s voice?”
