Chapter 39: Take some photos as a souvenir
"No more for now."
Zhou Huai couldn't guarantee anything, after all, he had tried to draw a magic bean many times without success.
Just then, Sun Yichang's phone rang.
"Zhou Huai, I need to take this call."
"it is good."
Zhou Huai then released his grip on her.
Sun Yichang took out her phone and saw that it was her brother calling, so she answered.
"Hello, is this Sister Ling?"
"Um, sorry, Nini, your brother was just transferred to the intensive care unit, so I went with him to handle all the formalities. Where are you now? I'll come find you."
"How is my brother doing?"
"The surgery was very successful, but I don't know when I will wake up, and the injured areas on my body will also need time to heal slowly."
Chen Ling breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Having already survived a brush with death, she believed that she could overcome the difficulties to come.
"I'm in the emergency room, my mom..."
Sun Yichang seemed hesitant to speak, even though she was usually so cheerful, she felt sorry for herself because of this.
If I tell Chen Ling, will she blame me too?
Zhou Huai also received a voice chat invitation from Chen Yao at this moment.
"Fishball, I'm going to the restroom."
After he finished speaking, he quickly ran to the nearby restroom and then answered the voice call.
"Yao-mei, what's wrong?"
It's only a little past 3 o'clock; she should still be in school.
"Honey, Xiaorou didn't come to class this afternoon. Her mother just called me and said that Xiaorou locked herself in her room after getting home, and it sounded like she was crying. She asked me what happened to her. Do you know?"
"..."
Zhou Huai was speechless for a moment, mainly because he didn't want to lie to her.
"Honey, I want to go see her."
"Okay, then you go find her first. I'll come find you after I'm done with my work."
"Okay, I'll call my driver now and have him come pick me up."
I love you the most.
Perhaps out of guilt, Zhou Huai couldn't help but say something before she hung up the phone.
"I'm so happy, I love my husband the most too."
Chen Yao immediately cheered up again.
[Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. You are rewarded with 4 chances to draw a prize.]
Upon hearing the system notification, Zhou Huai hurried back.
"Doubao, next time you get a chance to win a prize, just draw it for me."
[Okay, master. 】
The giant lottery roulette wheel reappeared and began to spin rapidly.
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the one-time-use item
"Looks like I'm pretty lucky, I keep getting these lucky cards."
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the one-time use item
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained a one-time use item,
"Holy crap, I finally got it!"
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the top-tier internal energy manual,
When one possesses profound internal energy, one is immune to deadly poisons, protected by true qi, and can counterattack and injure enemies. One is compatible with all martial arts and can quickly execute advanced techniques (such as the Six Meridian Divine Sword).
A flood of internal energy knowledge rushed into Zhou Huai's mind. He stood still, closed his eyes, and began to experience it.
"Awesome, I finally got a new martial art."
He immediately took out the large crystal flame pill he had just obtained from the system space and ate it.
[Tianshan Six Yang Palms lv070→120 or Northern Darkness Divine Skill lv001→lv050.]
Zhou Huai chose the Northern Darkness Divine Art.
However, internal energy cultivation is different from palm techniques; it only increases the level (the upper limit of internal energy that the body can store).
Zhou Huai currently has no internal energy in his body and needs to spend time meditating and cultivating to slowly accumulate it.
"Zhou Huai, you're here."
Suddenly a beautiful figure appeared in front of him.
Zhou Huai opened his eyes and saw that it was Jiang Mian.
"There are some things I need to take care of."
"Zhou Huai, humph, you have time when you're with other girls, but when I ask you out, you just say you need to study hard lately."
Jiang Mian said sarcastically.
"No, no matter how busy I am, I will always make time for the people I love."
After Jiang Mian said that, Zhou Huai didn't stand on ceremony with her.
"You stinky Zhou Huai, so you're saying you don't like me? I was just trying to help you out."
Jiang Mian said with a wronged expression.
"You? Help me?"
Zhou Huai thought to himself, "I didn't even see you come out just now."
"Yes, when you were having a conflict with that lady, a reporter who was secretly hiding his identity spotted him and tried to take pictures, but I asked the security guard to kick him out."
Because the incident at the hospital went viral last night, the hospital leadership issued an order this morning prohibiting reporters from taking photos for a short period of time.
Medical disputes are common in hospitals, but regardless of who is right or wrong, most netizens who are unaware of the inside story tend to side with the hospital.
"Thanks."
Zhou Huai himself didn't care, since his face was covered up except for his eyes, but Sun Yichang couldn't.
Some unscrupulous journalists like to spread rumors, take things out of context, make unfounded accusations, and fabricate stories.
"There's no sincerity."
Jiang Mian was still fuming.
"So what do you want me to do?"
Zhou Huai felt somewhat helpless.
He has a favorability system, and Jiang Mian's favorability rating is second, so she must have fallen for him.
"Zhou Huai, come with me for a moment."
Jiang Mian's already large eyes suddenly lit up, revealing an evil smile.
"Where are you going?"
Zhou Huai was still wondering when she simply reached out and pulled him.
"I would never hurt you."
Afterwards, Zhou Huai went with Jiang Mian to their inner changing room.
"Jiang Mian, why did you bring me to the locker room?"
Zhou Huai was completely baffled. Besides, this was a women's changing room; if someone else came in, his reputation would be ruined.
"Zhou Huai, just bear with me a little longer, I'll be quick, I promise."
As she spoke, Jiang Mian took a camera out of her wardrobe.
"Do you want to take a picture?"
Zhou Huai asked.
"Yes, you look great in this outfit today. Zhou Huai, take off your mask and hat, I want to take a few pictures and then I'll keep bothering you."
Jiang Mian's laughter was somewhat exaggerated, which made Zhou Huai feel a chill down his spine.
"No, why are you taking my picture?"
Zhou Huai was even more confused.
"They like you, but you already have someone you like, so I definitely won't do anything to ruin someone else's relationship. I'll just take a few photos as a memento. Besides, my parents have been urging me to go on blind dates lately. I'm only 23, I don't know what they're in such a hurry for. I'll just use you as a shield."
As she spoke, Jiang Mian turned on her camera.
"You didn't send it to someone else, did you? And why do you bring a camera to work?"
Zhou Huai was rather cautious.
"How could I possibly send it to someone else? The camera was left behind by the reporter who tried to take photos secretly. I found a lot of other people's private photos on it. I was planning to hand it over to Sister Wu to deal with after I got off work later. You know we share an apartment, right?"
Jiang Mian quickly explained.
"Okay, go ahead and take the picture."
She was a great help; all she asked for were a few ordinary photos, and Zhou Huai agreed.
The photos were taken quickly, but just as the two were about to leave, someone opened the door and came in first.
It was Ji Yaoyao, whom I had just seen in the emergency room.
Zhou Huai had no choice but to hide.
