Chapter 538: It’s My Fault
“That’s enough! Form is indeed emptiness, and emptiness is indeed form. Feelings, perceptions…” Lin Yan shouted out in a fl.u.s.ter.
Pei Yucheng was about to utter something when he suddenly frowned and glanced at Lin Yan’s leg.
He had noticed that there was something wrong with her leg earlier. Perhaps the alcohol had numbed the pain. Now that the alcohol had been washed off, the pain surged through him.
The pain felt as though there was a poisonous snake burrowing through his body.
Even he couldn’t take the pain, let alone Lin Yan, who was a girl…
That piercing pain must have lasted for hours.
Pei Yucheng scanned through the beer cans and the TV screen as his face hardened.
She had drunk and played games to distract herself from the pain…
Pei Yucheng’s tone changed instantly. “Why didn’t you go to the hospital?”
An ordinary person would have fainted from the pain. How could she play games instead of going to the hospital?
“Hospital? Why should I go to the hospital?” Lin Yan’s consciousness was detached from her body, so she couldn’t understand him at that point in time.
Pei Yucheng suppressed his anger and sprang to his feet swiftly. He then picked up her coat and bag.
Lin Yan was fl.u.s.tered when he stood up. “Hey! What are you doing? Where are you going?”
Pei Yucheng replied, “I’m taking you to the hospital for treatment.”
“What? You’re taking me to the hospital for treatment?” Lin Yan remembered her injury and blurted out anxiously, “No! I don’t want to go to the hospital! I don’t want a jab!”
Pei Yucheng’s expression fell as he asked coldly, “Why?”
Lin Yan hissed angrily, “There is no why! I just don’t want a jab!”
Lin Yan’s consciousness said honestly, “No jab! No jab! Jabs are so scary! I’m really afraid of injections…”
Pei Yucheng halted in his tracks, feeling slightly stunned. “You’re afraid of… injections…”
Lin Yan yelled. F*ck!
“So what if I’m afraid of injections? Can’t I be?” Lin Yan, who felt ashamed, erupted in rage.
Pei Yucheng’s tone softened as he pressed on. “I’m the one receiving the jab. Why should you be afraid?”
Lin Yan was momentarily stumped.
Oh! That was… quite true.
Her body wasn’t under her control, so she couldn’t feel anything right now. She couldn’t even feel the stabbing pain in her leg. Hence, she realized that the fellow would feel the pain, the jab, and even the medicine. This had nothing to do with her…
Instinctively, Lin Yan thought, “Wow, this is great! Perhaps I should get that fellow to take a few more jabs! He should take the medicine too!”
Pei Yucheng, who had read her thoughts, was speechless…
…
Pei Yucheng took a taxi to the hospital, where the doctor checked Lin Yan’s leg and berated her sternly.
“Do you still want your leg? It has been so long since you came back! Didn’t your physiotherapist warn you that you’re not supposed to engage in vigorous activity during this period? Young people tend to treat their health and body lightly…”
“It’s my fault.” Pei Yucheng didn’t retort. He merely accepted the scolding with a humble att.i.tude.
For some strange reason, Lin Yan felt that the fellow was truly sorry. He wasn’t pretending to be her. He was speaking for himself…
