"Serve you right. Why didn''t you call a nurse?"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Nurses are women. How could I let another woman touch my body? No way, no way. A good man must keep himself pure." Chang Zhiyuan waved his hand dismissively.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Sure, I believe you," Xu Xiuhe said sarcastically, wondering how anyone could be even more thick-skinned than him.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Xiuhe, what do you mean? You don''t believe me? I admit, I might have been a bit of a yer before, but that was only because I hadn''t found true love yet. It''s different now. Now I have to stay chaste for my dear Shu Yi."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xu Xiuhe looked at him with disgust. "Has your dder grownrger?"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

When Chang Zhiyuan came out of the bathroom, he let out a sigh of relief. "Finally took care of that. Xiuhe, I absolutely must treat you to a meal."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

Xu Xiuhe''s words hit a sore spot for Chang Zhiyuan. It was just bad luck that he could break a bone going down stairs. He was too embarrassed to tell anyone.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Where is everyone? Where''s the caregiver?" Xu Xiuhe asked.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Don''t even mention it. I purposely didn''t hire a caregiver so that Shu Yi could take care of me. But then my parents showed up this morning, and she left. Now I''m all alone here, lonely and pitiful."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Zhiyuan, you didn''t hurt yourself like this on purpose just to get her to take care of you, did you?" Xu Xiuhe looked at Chang Zhiyuan''s right leg, which was covered in a ster cast.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

"Alright, let''s talk about what''s important. Why did Shu Yi leave? I called her, but her phone is turned off."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xu Xiuhe walked to Chang Zhiyuan''s bedside and put his hand on Chang Zhiyuan''s head, examining him. "It''s your leg that''s broken, not your brain."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Chang Zhiyuan immediately caught on.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

"Didn''t you say your parents came? When she saw your parents arrive, of course she would leave. Her phone is off – think carefully, what could be the reason? Is it possible they said something to Shu Yi?"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"How did I not think of that?" Chang Zhiyuan pped his forehead.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Xu Xiuhe marveled again at how a man in love could be so irrational.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

With that, Xu Xiuhe grabbed his coat and left the hospital room. Chang Zhiyuany in bed, still pondering where things had gone wrong.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Hey, Chang Ningjing, why did it take you so long to answer the phone? Did you do it on purpose? Everyone left without saying a word to me. My dder was about to explode!"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

Chang Ningjing didn''t spell it out explicitly.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Chang Zhiyuan angrily hung up the phone. He was fed up with his parents. They had to meddle in everything. He had told them not to interfere in his love life, but as soon as he said it, they started meddling?<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
His parents were really something. If they had just waited a while before starting to interfere, he wouldn''t have said anything.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Chang Zhiyuan was furious. Damn it, he was crippled, and not only did they note to take care of him, they went and messed up his affairs. He had been making some progress recently and could feel that Shu Yi wasn''t as resistant to him as before.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Now with this interference, they were back to square one.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

Chang Zhiyuan made a phone call to hispany assistant. He did have an assistant, but usually the assistant was only visible at thepany, and he spent very little time there.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

The nurse pushing the wheelchair came over, making a motion to help Chang Zhiyuan.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Chang Zhiyuan quickly waved them off. As a good man, he had to uphold male virtues. Men and women shouldn''t touch casually. It would be better if he got into the wheelchair himself.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Chang Zhiyuan first put his left foot on the ground, then supported himself with both hands on the bed and sat down in the wheelchair.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0

Shu Yi shook her head. She was an artist under hispany. As long as she stayed with hispany, it would be impossible for them to avoid crossing paths. In the past, it wasn''t so bad, but now they had filmed a drama together and still had to coordinate to make official announcements. They would have to work together in the future as well.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
