Chapter 551: Chapter 551: Letting You Hold Me_1

Upon hearing that Xia Qingtian would disregard her own physical state and insist on being discharged from the hospital, Huo Qilin felt as if his heart was being stirred into a mess, causing him an intense heartache!

He firmly kept a grip on his emotions, and did not do anything inappropriate.

Seeing Huo Qilin remain silent, Xia Qingtian couldn’t resist speaking up first.

"Can I leave the hospital now?" She asked anxiously, unable to hide her uneasiness.

Huo Qilin took a deep breath, trying to appear as nonchalant as possible.

"You may..." He understood he could not stop Xia Qingtian, but neither was he secure in letting her, still unwell, wander around on her own, so he proposed conditions of his own, "But you must allow me to accompany you."

In fact, Xia Qingtian did not want to burden him.

However, she was eager to see Bo Jingyan as soon as possible, and also knew that Huo Qilin would not let her leave on her own. Therefore, she did not want to waste time bargaining anymore.

"Alright." She agreed.

This time, it was she who owed Huo Qilin a favor that she would find a way to repay in the future.

Seeing she agreed, the tension on Huo Qilin’s face eased a bit.

This matter was thereby settled.

But it wasn’t appropriate for Xia Qingtian to go out in her hospital clothes, and she didn’t know where the nurses had placed her own clothes, and couldn’t ask for them.

If the nurses got to know she wanted to be discharged, they would definitely disagree.

Knowing her predicament, Huo Qilin brought her a set of clothes from somewhere. They even fit her well.

Xia Qingtian changed her clothes, performed a bit of disguise in the ward, and then left.

The two of them headed towards the hospital exit, sneaking out like thieves.

Huo Qilin reminded her, "You are still a patient. After seeing Bo Jingyan, you must return immediately. Only after you have completely recovered and get doctor’s approval may you be discharged."

"I know, you talk too much, classmate Huo Qilin." Xia Qingtian, slightly amused, teased him, "Do your fans know how much you natter in private?"

"If you could only be a more obedient patient, do you believe I would..." Huo Qilin hadn’t finished his sentence before he realized that Xia Qingtian had stopped walking.

He turned around and saw that her face, which had just regained a little color because of their light-hearted banter, had turned pale again. He felt a tense knot in his chest.

He thought something might be wrong with her health-wise.

Huo Qilin immediately went quiet and returned to her side, anxious and worried, "What’s wrong? Do you feel unwell? We’re still inside the hospital, let me help you back to the ward."

Despite his coaxing, Xia Qingtian stood her ground.

Huo Qilin didn’t worry too much, thinking she just wanted to see Bo Jingyan.

He felt a simultaneous surge of anger and helplessness, and capitulated, "Let’s go back to the ward and I’ll ask Bo Jingyan to come to see you at the hospital. Is it okay?"

Xia Qingtian, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke, "No need!"

Huo Qilin thought she was insisting on going to see Bo Jingyan herself. He was about to say something when...

"I’ve already seen him!" Xia Qingtian interrupted once again.

Huo Qilin was stunned and didn’t know how to respond.

Subconsciously, he asked, "Seen who?"

"Bo Jingyan!" Xia Qingtian stared fixedly in one direction.

Something seemed off to Huo Qilin. She was just desperate to see Bo Jingyan but now, upon seeing him, she doesn’t even smile, instead...

She looked unhappy?

What on earth happened?

With these thoughts, Huo Qilin looked in the direction of her gaze and did see Bo Jingyan. Then he understood why Xia Qingtian looked so unhappy.

Because Bo Jingyan was not alone; a woman was with him.

That woman was none other than Shi Qian, who had been ostracized a while ago.

At this moment, Shi Qian was hanging on Bo Jingyan’s arm, staggeringly and weakly leaning against him.

Bo Jingyan, expressionless as always, helped her stand, even draping an arm around her shoulders, seemingly lost in thought.

A blush spread across Shi Qian’s pale face, arousing infinite conjectures.

Regardless of how one looked at it, they appeared far from innocent!

Huo Qilin looked away and glanced anxiously at Xia Qingtian.

"Qingtian, do you still want to approach him?" He asked tentatively, "Or should I help you back to the ward and we can talk about everything else after you get better?"

Xia Qingtian took a deep breath and her expression finally softened.

"No need," she resolutely answered, "I’ll just go say hello."

Huo Qilin was worried about her, but seeing her determined expression, he understood she had made up her mind.

So, he didn’t try to dissuade her further.

However, he made up his mind to keep an eye on the situation and intervened immediately if anything detrimental to Xia Qingtian occurred.

He only had one principle, and that was to not let Xia Qingtian suffer.

Xia Qingtian didn’t know what he was thinking. After she made her declaration, she calmly walked towards Shi Qian and Bo Jingyan.

As she approached, Shi Qian was acting coquettishly towards Bo Jingyan, "Brother Jingyan, my foot hurts so much that I can’t walk a step. Can you carry me?"

Bo Jingyan kept quiet and did not reply.

Although Bo Jingyan didn’t agree, Xia Qingtian felt as if her heart had sunk to the bottom.

Because he didn’t refuse either.

Considering his character, if he didn’t want to do something, he’d refuse outright. But this time, he didn’t!

Xia Qingtian couldn’t understand what had happened in just a few days that could have changed Bo Jingyan’s attitude towards Shi Qian. It wasn’t like this when Shi Qian had previously tried to stop their car.

In just a few seconds, countless thoughts had flashed through her mind.

During all of this, Shi Qian and Bo Jingyan had not noticed Mia Qingtian’s arrival. Now, Shi Qian got unhappy seeing Bo Jingyan remain silent.

However, she didn’t dare to show it, nor was she willing to give up.

"Brother Jingyan, you promised Bo’s mother that you would look after me. Now, when my leg hurts and I ask you to carry me, you’re unwilling..." Shi Qian complained in a cute voice, "Watch out or I’ll tell Bo’s mother."

Bo Jingyan’s stern eyebrows relaxed a bit after hearing this.

Seeing this, Shi Qian’s face lit up with ecstasy.

Bo Jingyan opened his mouth to say, "You..."

Before he could finish, Xia Qingtian cut him off, "Shi Qian, your foot hurts, does it? Should I call a nurse for a wheelchair to push you?"
