Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Can I, Be Naughty?

Jiazhou City’s winter is somewhat cold, with goose-feather like snow falling, the temperature below zero, and the river surface freezing over.

An old man in his sixties was slowly walking towards the icy river surface, ignoring the calls of passersby behind him.

Someone made a rescue call.

When Shen Liguang arrived at the scene, the elderly man had already moved to the middle of the river surface.

Shen Liguang frowned, finding the situation troublesome.

The river surface was frozen, but unstable.

The old man kept walking forward, and it was especially dangerous.

Shen Liguang asked the onlooking crowd if there were any family members of the old man.

After looking at each other, they shook their heads.

"When we noticed the old man, he had already walked far away, we called him, but it was as if he couldn’t hear us at all, and kept walking forward."

Shen Liguang frowned and looked at the old man, who was still moving forward slowly.

Not wanting to delay further, Shen Liguang had no choice but to step onto the ice and move closer to the old man.

The ice was not firm, and he held his breath, approaching the old man cautiously.

With a "crack" sound, the thing he most feared still happened.

The ice broke, and the bone-chilling river water submerged the person...

Fu Ying suddenly felt suffocated, suddenly awoke, and saw Tan Ruonian frowning at her.

Fu Ying had a headache and a stuffed nose, she stood up and sincerely apologized to Tan Ruonian with a nasally voice, "Sorry, teacher, I, I have a headache, I accidentally fell asleep."

Tan Ruonian pursed his lips and stared at the girl’s obedient appearance, then his heart softened, "Go to the infirmary after class."

Fu Ying nodded, and once the bell rang, she left her seat and slowly walked toward the infirmary.

When she came back with fever medicine, a few girls including Zhou Wei in the front row were asking other students in the classroom, "Hey, for the New Year’s Eve party, who has a performance prepared?"

Xiao Minghui shouted with a smile, "I’ll do a circus act."

"Zhou Wei, you can sing and dance, why don’t you perform?"

Zhou Wei smiled embarrassedly.

Fu Ying, holding the medicine in a daze, walked towards her seat, only to be stopped by Zhou Wei.

"Hey, Fu Ying, do you have any talents to show?"

Participation in the school’s New Year’s event was a good thing, but from Zhou Wei’s remark, it seemed like it was just to showcase one’s talent.

Seeing Zhou Wei’s sarcastically smiling face, Fu Ying nodded, "Yes, put me down for one."

Zhou Wei couldn’t help but snicker; she really wanted to see what Fu Ying could bring to the New Year’s Eve party.

During self-study, the fever medicine didn’t help Fu Ying much, and she felt dizzy from the fever.

Finally managing to get through the school day, she left the school; Fu Yan saw her looking weak and thought she was bullied by classmates, "What happened? Who bullied you?"

Fu Ying shook her head, opened the car door and got in, "I suddenly got a fever."

Fu Yan’s smile was ambiguous, "You and Brother Li Guang are really a pair..."

The phrase "a pair" made Fu Ying particularly uncomfortable.

"What happened to him?"

"He fell into an ice hole while trying to save an old man. He was fine initially, but by the afternoon he had a high fever, and the medicine didn’t help; he’s in the hospital now."

In the winter, the darkness falls quickly, and the street lights emit an orange glow.

Fu Ying quietly asked, "Little brother, can you take me there to see him? Just say, I have a fever and need an IV."

"Sure," Fu Yan raised his eyebrows, "but I have a question."

Fu Yan smiled mischievously.

When Fu Ying felt that this question wouldn’t be simple, Fu Yan spoke, "Tell me, did you and Brother Li Guang kiss last time?"

The warm, outside light illuminated the car, casting a blushing hue on the girl’s face.

Fu Yan understood and spoke meaningfully, "Sure, little brother will take you there, but remember, we aren’t going specifically to see Brother Li Guang, we’re going to reduce the fever."

Hearing Fu Yan’s words, Fu Ying felt embarrassed, "Little brother, can you just_drive properly, please?"

...

The hospital was particularly quiet, only the doctor on duty was present.

When Xia Jinyun saw Fu Ying, she was surprised, "Why are you here? Are you sick?"

"I have a fever."

"Let’s get an IV drip."

Fu Ying nodded.

Xia Jinyun passed the IV bag to Fu Yan, "Hold this for your sister, keep it up high."

Fu Yan glanced at her and reached out to take the IV bag.

Xia Jinyun walked aside, busy with other things.

Fu Yan helped her carry the IV bag as they headed towards Shen Liguang’s ward.

Fu Ying was a bit nervous, walking slowly.

Fu Yan got anxious: "Can you walk faster?"

Fu Ying’s eyes reddened: "I, I am nervous."

"Why are you nervous? He doesn’t know you like him. Just treat him like a brother."

Fu Ying shook her head: "It’s not the same."

"Then wouldn’t it be better not to go? If we don’t go, we’ll just head to the infusion area."

"No, brother, I’ll go."

Hearing the girl’s eager voice, Fu Yan felt particularly helpless.

"Like him then like him, why beat around the bush. Just tell him."

"I’m afraid, I’m afraid I’ll startle him, I’m afraid he’ll think I’m just a little kid and reject me."

Fu Yan looked back at her and nodded in agreement: "Indeed, not quite grown-up, still a little kid."

Fu Ying: "..."

Inside the ward, Shen Liguang was intently watching TV.

It was a legal awareness program.

Hearing movement at the door, he looked over, and saw Fu Yan holding up the IV bag, looking back impatiently saying: "Come in."

Then, the little girl entered the ward very cautiously.

Fu Yan felt the atmosphere was awkward, chuckled and said: "Picking up my sister from school, this girl got a bad fever. I told her to wear more clothes but she refused, choosing style over warmth."

With Fu Yan’s words, the atmosphere eased a lot.

Shen Liguang stared at the girl and smiled, speaking maturely: "It’s the same with young kids nowadays."

Fu Ying bowed her head, slightly embarrassed.

She didn’t want style over warmth.

Fu Yan asked Fu Ying to sit on the stool next to Shen Liguang’s bed and hung the IV bag on the hook, then found an excuse to leave.

Claiming, "My stomach hurts, I need to go to the toilet."

And then he disappeared as if vanishing.

Leaving Fu Ying facing Shen Liguang, awkwardly unable to utter a word for a long time.

Finally, remembering the candies she owed him from last time, she quickly took them out of her pocket and handed them over: "Brother, the candies I owed you last time."

Shen Liguang looked at her slightly flushed face, feeling an uncontrollable surge within.

On the TV, a legal segment was on, discussing rape – also known as sexual violence, sexual assault, or forcible intercourse, categorized as using violence, threats, or harm to force a person into sexual activity against their will, punishable by three to ten years imprisonment.

Shen Liguang calmed down a lot.

"Thank you."

Fu Ying shook her head, sitting up straight, her eyes slightly downturned, very well-behaved.

Shen Liguang smiled and said: "You’re really well-behaved."

Fu Ying blushed: "Hmm? Just so-so."

"Can you, not be well-behaved?"

"Ah?" Fu Ying raised her eyes to look at him.

Shen Liguang chuckled.

"Never mind."

Ever since the kiss last time, Fu Ying always had thoughts when she saw a man’s lips.

Looking away, she asked: "Brother, tomorrow’s the New Year’s Eve party at our school, will you come?"

"Can I see you?"

Fu Ying nodded shyly: "Yes."

"Okay, then brother will come."

More than ten minutes later, Fu Ying removed the needle, and it was only then that Fu Yan returned.

Twirling a keychain, as casual as could be.

Fu Ying, pressing the puncture site, quickly walked towards Fu Yan.

"Not staying a bit longer?"

"I have homework to do at home."

Seeing Fu Ying shy, Fu Yan couldn’t help but laugh: "Okay, then Brother Li Guang, we’ll head back first."

"Okay." Shen Liguang shifted his gaze away from the girl, nodding his head.
