Chapter 417: Chapter 418: Really Need to Thank Your Classmate

Xu Nianhua and her four roommates had headed straight to the shower room as soon as they returned to the dorm and, feeling refreshed, immediately threw themselves onto their beds.

"Oi, my beloved bed!"

Fei Jiayi hugged her soft, fragrant quilt, yawning continuously. They had worried most of the night before, and without a place to rest, all five of them squeezed together or just sat on the corridor chairs, hardly getting any good rest.

"Thank goodness it’s Saturday, or else how would I ever attend class!" Ding Guo yawned, cuddled into her quilt, and fell asleep as soon as she turned over.

...

In the hospital, Liao Jinling had already regained consciousness.

"Dad, Mom, why are you here?" Liao Jinling was startled to see Mr. and Mrs. Liao and seemed not to have expected her parents’ arrival.

"You silly girl, you didn’t even tell us you were sick, it worried us to death!" Mrs. Liao’s tears flowed as she held Jinling’s hand, saying, "If it weren’t for your dorm mates yesterday, you..."

Just the thought of the dangerous situation the doctors had described made Mrs. Liao tremble with worry.

"Exactly, those classmates of yours are good kids." Mr. Liao’s words were filled with gratitude towards Jinling’s dorm mates, and he asked, "Jinling, how are you feeling now? Is there anything else that’s uncomfortable?"

"Good, I’m feeling fine." Liao Jinling had been groggy with pain the day before but was still conscious.

Fei Jiayi teased her, and because Jinling was feeling discomfort in her stomach, she didn’t answer. Later, as the pain grew worse, she couldn’t sleep and felt terrible all over.

After a while, Jiayi called out to her, and then it seemed everyone in the dorm was up. Xu Nianhua then carried her to the infirmary, and later, it seemed Chang Hui was carrying her; eventually, they arrived at the hospital.

She hung her head, listening to her dad’s and mom’s concerned words, thinking about her usual distance from her dorm mates, yet, at a critical moment, they were willing to carry her to the hospital and had stayed with her all night.

"Jinling, you really need to thank your classmates properly!" Mrs. Liao repeatedly urged.

Liao Jinling nodded and said, "Mom, I know."

She clutched her quilt tightly, feeling guilty about her past behavior.

...

"Nianhua, when did you wake up?" Fei Jiayi had had a full night’s rest and, upon waking, saw that everyone else in the dorm was still asleep, except Xu Nianhua, who was sitting on her bed, head down, still busily writing on some documents.

"I slept for an hour."

Xu Nianhua glanced at her and continued proofreading the documents; the translation was complete, and now all that was left was the final proofreading, which she needed to finish by tomorrow morning to give to Yicheng.

"Just an hour?"

Fei Jiayi stared at Xu Nianhua, wanting to say something but afraid of waking the others in the dorm, so she silently unwrapped a lollipop to eat—it wasn’t even dinner time yet.

Xu Nianhua nodded, focused and diligent in proofreading the documents, knowing there couldn’t be a single error.

...

"Yicheng," Xu Nianhua was already waiting downstairs at Pei Yicheng’s dormitory building early on, and when she saw Pei Yicheng, she immediately raised the documents in her hand, saying, "I’m done with the translation."

"That quick?" Pei Yicheng took the documents, gauging her, and asked, "You didn’t skip resting during the day yesterday, did you?"

By her pace, Xu Nianhua shouldn’t have finished translating yet.

"I slept for a little while, and I’m not tired, so I proofread. Rest assured, I was very thorough; I proofread it three times to make sure there won’t be any issues," Xu Nianhua explained patiently, worried Pei Yicheng might not believe her.
