After much effort, the protagonist Ethan Chen finally escaped from the hospital.
He turned back to look at the tall hospital building, clenched his fist, and gritted his teeth:"Just you wait, Alex Lin! Next time, you'll be the one lying in that bed! Ethan Chen always keeps his promises!"
Feeling relieved and happy, he walked through a flower bed—and immediately crashed head-on into a huge mass of running flesh.
BAM!
Ethan felt like he was hit by a freight train.
The massive impact sent him flying several meters before he crashed heavily onto the ground.
Cough… cough…His chest burned, and every organ felt like it was on fire.
But it wasn't over.
The inertia caused that massive lump of flesh to fall directly on top of him.
Ethan's eyes widened in horror:"No!!!"
BOOM!
It landed on him.
With a crisp crack, his just-barely-healed ribs broke again.
Despair filled Ethan's eyes.For a moment, the world fell completely silent.
Then—the pain hit.
"AAAHHHHHH!!!"
The scream echoed for hundreds of meters.
Those who heard it were heartbroken.Those who saw it were moved to tears.
The fat person pressed on him quickly climbed back up in a panic."Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Ethan gritted his teeth."Why is it you AGAIN?!"
The "fat person" was none other than the same fat girl who previously sent him to the hospital.
He would never forget her… majestic physique.
"Oh! It's you again, what a coincidence!" the fat girl smiled innocently.
"What are you doing here?" Ethan asked coldly.
The fat girl lowered her head shyly."I thought I was too heavy, so I've been jogging at night to lose weight! I've already lost 10 kilograms! You can totally see the results!"
She looked quite proud of herself.
But when she saw Ethan's pale face and the sweat pouring down his forehead, she became worried."You look like you're in a lot of pain…"
Ethan snapped,"Thanks to you, my ribs broke AGAIN!"
The fat girl panicked even more."Ah?! I'll take you to the hospital!"
Ethan cried out in fear,"I'm not going to the hospital! Please— I beg you— NO!"
"You can't refuse! You're seriously injured! Be good and listen!"
And so—
The protagonist Ethan Chen was once again sent back to the hospital…Placed in the same room…On the same bed…The only difference was that the bandages were thicker.
And his expression was more numb.
He couldn't understand.He had just escaped.He really escaped.So why…was he sent back again in the exact same way?!
"Oh heavens," he thought miserably,"why are you treating me like this…"
An hour later, Alex Lin and Sophia Song arrived at the hospital.
Alex asked with concern,"Brother Ethan, how are you feeling?"
Through clenched teeth, Ethan replied,"I'm fine… thanks for your concern."
"Look at you," Alex sighed."You were perfectly fine, but you insisted on running out! Now your injuries are even worse! You won't recover unless you lie down for three months.Don't run around anymore, okay?"
Ethan glared at him.
Don't run?Doesn't that mean he'll never escape Alex Lin's clutches for the rest of his life?!
Sophia Song also scolded,"Yes! Stop running around! Stay here and recover!Honestly… a grown man who doesn't know how to take care of himself…"
Originally, she was enjoying a sweet date with Alex.But it was interrupted because of him.
Of course she'd be irritated.
Alex said gently,"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Rest well, we're leaving now."
He held Sophia Song's hand.
Ethan trembled."You two…"
Alex smiled proudly,"Oh, let me introduce you!Yuqing is now my girlfriend!"
Sophia Song blushed but did not deny it.
Ethan Chen almost spat blood.
In just over TEN DAYS you became a couple?!That's too fast! Too shameless!
He felt the green light on his head shining brightly—blinding, radiant green.
Alex smiled,"Alright, we're going to continue our date.Take care! Maybe when you're discharged, you can attend our wedding—and get some wedding candies! Haha!"
Ethan almost exploded.
They stole his fiancée…and dared to flaunt it in front of him?!
Arrogant!Infuriating!Unforgivable!
Even the pain in his ribs couldn't compare to the pain in his heart.
"Alex Lin, from today on…it's either you or me!"
Alex waved cheerfully,"We're leaving! Bye!"
He left hand-in-hand with Sophia.
Ethan roared in fury:
"AAAHHHHHH!!!"
His howl echoed throughout the hospital.
