At six o'clock in the morning, Qiao Sixiao woke up from her sleep.
She did not sleep well last night. Her wrist was still swollen from the fracture, and she had a slight fever at night...
But it was still better than sleeping at the hospital. She hated the sll of disinfectant, which always reminded her of her childhood illness. Her parents were working overnight and her brother carried her to the hospital by himself.
Qiao Sixiao sat up in bed, and a towel fell from her forehead.
She contemplated the towel for a mont.
When she got out of the bedroom, she heard a cheerful greeting:
"You woke up so early, why not sleep a little longer? I made breakfast, do you want to eat at the dining table or the coffee table in the living room?"
Oh right, it was Qin Wei, who had stayed overnight after lobbying to stay... Was she dreaming?
"Let's eat at the coffee table, so we can watch the morning news..."
Qin Wei hesitated for a while, then turned and went back to the kitchen. Soon she brought out a sumptuous breakfast and put it on the coffee table.
"What are you staring for? Co over... Oh yes, you haven't washed up yet..."
Qin Wei nagged and then walked over to push Qiao Sixiao forward.
After washing up, she started eating.
"I wonder...where is your TV..."
Qin Wei looked around. The minimalist decoration left the house empty everywhere. There was no TV either. At first, Qin Wei thought it was a hidden one, like a lift type or behind a secret door, but the truth was...
"I don't have a TV at ho."
Qiao Sixiao looked up at her, signaling her to stop looking.
"How boring is that? Coming ho with no entertainnt to watch shows or movies..."
Qin Wei complained for a mont, then sat down beside her, took away the chopsticks she was clumsily using with her left hand, and fed her a slice of bacon.
"I...can do it myself..."
"If you can, why are you eating so slowly? Or is it not tasty what I made?"
"......"
Qin Wei had made her breakfast more than once. She had kept eating it while filming a variety show mainly because it tasted pretty good. Now that she was eating slowly, it was indeed because using chopsticks with her left hand was not smooth.
She frowned, and eventually opened her mouth to eat the bacon.
"Delicious, right?"
Qin Wei looked at her with a smile as she slowly finished eating, then picked up another piece of bamboo shoot to feed her.
Before breakfast was over, the doorbell rang. Qiao Sixiao glanced at the ti, it was six thirty, it should be her assistant Xiao Wang coming with the doctor and nurses.
"I'll get it..."
"No need."
Qin Wei was about to go over but was stopped by Qiao Sixiao, who then got up herself and turned on the video intercom.
"Sis, it's . I brought the doctor."
...
Downstairs, Xiao Wang was a little nervous. She had been Qiao Sixiao's assistant for many years, but she would still feel stressed when going to Qiao Sixiao's house—
Qiao Sixiao's house, He Hong was not allowed to enter;
She had never invited friends ho;
Except for a long-term cooperative and relatively trusted housekeeping company, she seed to be very resistant to letting others co. Even the girls in the team who wanted to sleep on the sofa overnight after a late event were taken ho by a driver called by Qiao Sixiao in the middle of the night...
That was Qiao Sixiao's territory, one of the few small pieces of the world where she could live freely. Xiao Wang could understand, but...
Every ti she ca, she felt extrely stressed...
Looking back at a doctor and two nurses, Xiao Wang was even more stressed.
The door opened, and the elevator door opened soon too.
"Rember to put on shoe covers when you go in later, and don't ask to use her bathroom. Stay close to her as much as possible, don't..."
"Don't look around or walk around randomly, and don't take out your phone..."
The doctor said,
"We know, you told us four tis already...
Xiao Wang, do you have anxiety disorder? Unfortunately I'm an orthopedist. Let introduce you to an old classmate of mine who specializes in this area..."
Xiao Wang: "......"
...
The elevator arrived. Xiao Wang knocked on the door and led the doctor and nurses in after getting consent. Qiao Sixiao was sitting on the sofa, looking at them with indifference.
While putting on shoe covers on the shoe bench, the doctor inadvertently took a few glances at the decoration of her house. After all, people are naturally curious and want to know what a top actress’s ho looks like.
Unexpectedly, the decoration style of such a first-line actress turned out to be minimalist. The house was very clean with only three main color sches: natural wood, white and gray. It had the most basic furniture but no ornants or decorations at all.
It was so simple that ordinary people would find it a bit too much.
Is this the world of the rich? When they get rich enough, they beco disinterested in any objects?
"Did you sleep well last night, Miss Qiao?"
After disinfecting his hands with instant hand sanitizer, the doctor took Qiao Sixiao’s temperature while asking her.
"My wrist hurts. I took a painkiller pill at 4 am. I had a fever in the second half of the night, but the temperature didn't exceed 38 degrees, so I didn't take antipyretics, just physical cooling."
Qiao Sixiao told the truth. But when she was half-awake last night, how could she possibly know? This was what Qin Wei told her this morning.
"Oh, did soone take care of you last night?"
"What do you think?"
When Qiao Sixiao impatiently retorted, the doctor was rendered speechless.
Ah! He shouldn't have asked.
Afraid of an awkward atmosphere, Xiao Wang quickly changed the subject:
"Sis, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? I'll go make you sothing. What would you like to eat?"
"I've eaten."
Both Qiao Sixiao and Xiao Wang saw the unfinished breakfast on the table.
Qiao Sixiao sighed. She was so busy getting Qin Wei to hide just now but overlooked the details.
Xiao Wang scratched his head:
"Oh yes, they are all pre-made food that only need reheating... hmm..."
......
After asuring her temperature and doing other routine checks, the doctor said to Qiao Sixiao while making records:
"To be honest, Miss Qiao, it's not suitable for you to recuperate at ho with this kind of injury. You need intravenous infusions and examinations during the day. I still recomnd hospitalization for treatnt."
"No, I can't sleep well there."
Qiao Sixiao rejected without a second thought.
But on dical conditions, the doctor could not compromise. His attitude was still quite firm:
"The swelling in your arm has not subsided. Strictly speaking, your indicators have not recovered either. We allowed you to go ho and rest yesterday mainly out of consideration for your emotions...
It doesn’t seem to work today. Our recomndation is that you need to be hospitalized for the best treatnt."
Qiao Sixiao still had a cold face and refused:
"I feel good. I've broken ribs before while still working and getting treatnt at the sa ti. Now I just want to recuperate at ho. I can't sleep well in the hospital and can't rest well."
The doctor could not compromise either:
"I'm very sorry Miss Qiao but I have to be responsible for my profession. If you insist, I can only communicate with Ms. He..."
Qiao Sixiao was a little annoyed and confronted the doctor directly:
"Communicate what with He Hong? From a legal point of view, I'm an adult too. You can treat and save , and if not, I'll just change to another hospital. I told you I can't rest well in the hospital!"
She was not very easy-going in private to start with. And her mood had been fluctuating more these days due to her injury and pain. Afraid that things would get awkward, Xiao Wang quickly diated:
"Sis please don't get angry! It's not good for your health. I'll communicate with the doctor... Doctor, can we do it this way - go to the hospital for treatnt during the day since it’s not far from here, and I’ll pick her up and drop her off every day, okay?"
They were still negotiating when the door was pushed open and He Hong ca in.
