She thought he just had a common cold, but after going to the hospital, she found out his cold was quite serious. If not treated in time, it could develop into pneumonia.
After the nurse set up the IV for Leng Yan, Xia Nuo went out and bought a bowl of congee for him.
After taking care of him and watching him eat a bowl, she called a classmate, asking for help to take a leave of absence, as she couldn't make it to the evening self-study session.
After hanging up the phone, Leng Yan asked her, "Xia Nuo, you won't leave, right?"
"At least not until your IV is finished," Xia Nuo said calmly.
Confirming she wouldn't leave, Leng Yan smiled lightly and then fell asleep with ease.
Watching him close his eyes, Xia Nuo dared to look closely at his face.
Lately, she had been distant and cold towards him, deliberately not walking home with him after school. Yet she knew he always waited for her to return home, keeping a distance but following behind.
