Chapter 10 The Male Lead Zhou Jingchen

Shen Xue held her stomach and trotted home. When she got home, she stopped pretending and went straight into the kitchen, took five eggs and put them in the pot to boil.

Old Mrs. Shen keeps a close eye on the eggs at home. All the eggs are locked in her room. These five eggs were taken out by Old Mrs. Shen in advance. When Zhang Cuicui comes home from work in the afternoon, she can directly steam egg custard for Shen Shuyu.

Now that there was no one at home, Shen Xue became bolder. In her opinion, Shen Shuyu was a waste and didn't deserve to eat eggs. It was just the two old people at home who were partial to each other. They were both granddaughters, so why was Shen Shuyu the only one who could eat eggs? She couldn't even get the eggshell! She was not convinced.

Thinking of the man she picked up that day, Shen Xue's face blushed. Although the man was seriously injured and his face was covered with mud, it still couldn't hide his handsome face. Her intuition told her that the man was definitely not simple.

The eggs were cooked quickly. Shen Xue took out the eggs and rinsed them with water several times. The eggs were not so hot anymore. She put all five eggs into her small cloth bag and walked outside.

She pretended to have a stomachache and didn't go to work today because she wanted to go to the county town to see the man and reveal that she was his savior. The man would definitely be very grateful to her.

Shen Xue came to the county hospital with the shyness of a young girl. She had asked her father about the ward number in advance. She knew which ward the man was in. She looked at the door number and went straight into the ward.

The nurse was changing the dressing for the patient. When she saw Shen Xue coming in, she asked, "Who are you, comrade?"

Zhou Jingchen is the only patient in this ward. The nurse has not seen anyone visit him since he was sent to the hospital.

Shen Xue smiled slightly and pointed at the man on the bed, "I'm his savior. I came to see him."

Hearing that it was her lifesaver, the nurse glanced at Shen Xue standing at the door and said, "You are quite kind-hearted, young comrade."

The nurse quickly changed the medicine and left the ward.

Zhou Jingchen leaned on the hospital bed and asked weakly, "You saved me?"

Shen Xue smoothed her hair and walked to the bedside. She first expressed concern about his injuries and then said, "Hello, comrade. My name is Shen Xue. I am relieved to see that you are no longer in danger.

That day I went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables and saw you seriously injured and unconscious under a tree. I asked my cousin to carry you home and called a barefoot doctor to see you. The barefoot doctor said that your injuries were too serious. I persuaded my family to send you to the hospital.

I have been worried about you these past few days, but there is too much work at home and I have been unable to spare the time."

Zhou Jingchen knew how badly he was injured. If no one had saved him that day, he would have died in the mountains. Before he fainted, he remembered seeing a girl. He even grabbed the girl's leg and asked her to save him.

The girl seemed to have something seriously wrong with her brain. Not only did she have no sympathy at all, she also kicked him and stepped on him viciously, and took away the money and bills on him.

At that time, he almost met his great-grandfather.

He was absolutely right. It is true that poor and remote areas give rise to unruly people.

But the girl in front of me named Shen Xue seems different!

"Thank you for saving me, Miss Shen Xue. My name is Zhou Jingchen. When I recover from my injury, I will definitely come to thank you."

"You're welcome. I didn't think about that when I saved you."

Shen Xue was scheming. After chatting for a while, she knew Zhou Jingchen's family situation.

Zhou Jingchen was from Kyoto. Both his parents were cadres. He had three older brothers and one older sister. He came to visit relatives in Hongqi Commune. He heard that there were many wild boars in Wild Boar Ridge, so he was eager to hunt a wild boar and let his relatives know how powerful he was.

There were indeed many wild boars in Wild Boar Ridge, but he was bullied by the wild boars before he could even touch their fur.

Hearing this, Shen Xue was silent for a while. Normal people would run away when they see a wild boar, but he was the only one who wanted to hunt a wild boar. If not a wild boar, who else would he go after? He was lucky to be able to save his life.

If he was a country boy, Shen Xue would definitely say that he was stupid.

But he is from Beijing, his parents are cadres, and he has his own aura. Shen Xue's heart would beat unconsciously whenever she looked at Zhou Jingchen for a second.

She looked at Zhou Jingchen with admiration, "Jingchen, you are so brave."

Zhou Jingchen was very pleased with this look, "This time I was not prepared and let the wild boar take advantage of me. Next time I will beat the wild boar to pieces."

Zhou Jingchen is the man she is most satisfied with at the moment. She is satisfied with his family background and appearance. Shen Xue is really afraid that he will seek death. "Jingchen, forget it. After all, wild boars are also lives. Please let them go."

"Okay then, I'll listen to Xue'er."

After a short while, the two of them started calling each other Jing Chen and Xue'er.

Shen Xue took out five eggs from her bag and said, "Jingchen, these are the eggs I cooked specially for you. You are seriously injured, so eat more eggs to replenish your body."

Zhou Jingchen licked his lips unconsciously when he saw the egg. Although he was from Beijing and his family was well-off, he had three outstanding older brothers. His parents didn't even notice him and he was not favored. Naturally, he had no share of the good things in the family.

Now he gets greedy when he sees eggs, but he is very good at taking Qiao, "Xue'er, you eat it. I've eaten too many eggs at home and I don't like them."

Zhou Jingchen doesn’t even like to eat something as precious as eggs. As expected, she is from Kyoto and has everything she needs. She is determined to be with this man.

"Jingchen, eggs are nutritious. Eating them will help your injuries heal faster. Eat as much as you can."

Unable to resist the persuasion, Zhou Jingchen ate it reluctantly, leaving no trace of the five eggs.

During the few days Zhou Jingchen was hospitalized, his relatives only showed up once. Not only did they not take care of him, they didn't even bring him a bite of food. When he was hungry, he asked the nurses to help him get steamed buns from the hospital cafeteria.

Now that Shen Xue was here, he was not polite at all, "Xue'er, can you go to the cafeteria to help get some food back, preferably some meat."

"Sure." Shen Xue stood up and waited for Zhou Jingchen to give her the money.

Zhou Jingchen touched his pocket and smiled awkwardly, "Xue'er, I don't have any money on me, can you help me out? I'll pay you back later."

When Shen Xue went out, she only had two cents on her, but she had no tickets.

Going to the canteen to get food not only requires money but also food coupons. If he wants to eat meat, he needs meat coupons, but Shen Xue doesn't have any. "Jingchen, why don't you wait for your relatives to bring you food? I don't have any coupons."

Zhou Jingchen said that his relative was a worker in a meat processing factory and his family was well off, so he would bring him meat for every meal.

Zhou Jingchen: “…………” If his relative brought food, what else would he ask her to do!

Originally Zhou Jingchen was very grateful to Shen Xue, after all, she saved his life. But now when he asked her to get food, she said she had no ticket, and Zhou Jingchen's gratitude was lessened.

He came to see a patient but didn't even bring a ticket. It's true that country people have no manners at all.

As for the eggs brought by Shen Xue, Zhou Jingchen automatically ignored them. He felt that this was what he should do.
