"I just said I would support you, not marry you . " Lu Bai scorned with his back to her .
"You are really pathetic; it was just a joke . Anyway, thank you for today!" Yan Se shot him a glance .
If it were not for him steering the car into the guardrail while guarding her head and upper body, the truck would have hit them head-on and she would not just walk away with a simple concussion .
"You're welcome . "
The doctor and nurses had left after checking on them, and now, there were only two of them in the ward .
They were supposed to sleep but Yan Se could not because the anesthetic had lapsed . She felt extremely uncomfortable because she could not roll her body with her plastered leg raised .
"Lu Bai . . . " She suddenly switched the bedside lamp on . "I need to go to the toilet . "
Lu Bai sat up and looked at her right leg .
Yan Se was instantly anxious . "Don't look me like this . It's just the call of nature!"
"I . . . " Lu Bai looked hesitant . "It's not that I don't want to help, but how?"
"Carry me up . "

"With only one hand? Please don't overestimate me by underestimating your weight . I'd better call the nurses . " He raised his hand to press the bell while speaking . He would request to be transferred to another room tomorrow as this woman was troublesome .
"You are quite the gentleman . I am only going to the toilet, not molesting you . " Yan Se chuckled . But when the lipstick in the car came to mind, she found it hard to smile .
Soon, two nurses came to help her answer the call of nature .
When she was finally back in her bed, Lu Bai had fallen asleep . She felt extremely uncomfortable with bandages all over her body and only fell asleep around twilight .
In her sleep, she seemed to hear Lu Bai speaking .

"No!"
The two of them turned to look at Yan Se, who slowly opened her eyes and firmly shook her head .
"Lu Bai, how could you abandon me?"
There was a purpose that they were arranged in the same ward . After all, it was not safe for Lu Bai to be alone and they could watch each other's back by staying together . Even if she agreed, her boss would necessarily not .
"Why not? You are a woman and I am a man . " Lu Bai pinched his forehead helplessly . He used to stay alone and but now, he felt it very uncomfortable to see a woman in the same room as he was every time he woke up .

"Nurse, could you please give us a private moment? My boyfriend and I need to have a little chat; he is a little ruffled today," Yan Se said humorlessly .
"Of course . " The nurse nodded and left .
"Please mind your language; since when have I become your boyfriend?" Leaning on the headboard, Lu Bai shot her a look .
"Now . " Yan Se could not help but yawn before continuing . "We stay together to watch each other's back if things go wrong . What's more, I have promised your wife to protect you . "
"Are you sure you can protect me right now?" He glanced at her, lest she forgot that she was the one pleading for help last night .
"You have to understand; this is just temporary . " Yan Se looked at him with her big eyes, which shed tears from the yawning earlier . "I will feel very insecure if you go . "Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
