Chapter 10: Having a Meal with the Beautiful Nurse (Part 2)
"See that? Do you need any more proof?" I knew this wasn't the time to be stunned, or else Xiaoxue's kiss would have been in vain. So I pretended to be calm, raised an eyebrow and looked at Gao Shuai who was still stunned. Seeing he didn't say anything, I directly pulled Xiaoxue into my arms, ready to kiss her tender lips.
"Enough!" Gao Shuai turned around, his face showing a complex expression that I couldn't quite decipher. After a moment, his face darkened: "Since... Mei Xue, you have a boyfriend, so I won't bother you again. Goodbye..." He gazed longingly at Xiao Xue before shooting me a warning glance and turning to leave.
Gao Shuai walked away, and Xiao Xue immediately crawled out of my arms, her face red with embarrassment. I let out a "pfft" sound... no! It was a "pfft" that made me burst out laughing: "What? Aren't we lovers? What are you hiding from?" As she spoke, she prepared to hug Xiao Xue again. Of course, I was just joking around, and seeing this little girl's shy expression made me quite happy.
As expected, as soon as I made a move, Xiaoxue hastily dodged and spoke in a soft voice that was like the hum of a mosquito: "J-just... just now, it was only to scare away Gao Shuai..."
"Your meaning is, you just kissed my face for nothing?" I pretended to be somewhat displeased: "No way, you're the first girl to kiss me, it can't just end like this, you have to take responsibility!" Actually what I said was also true, my face had indeed been kissed by a girl for the first time. As for the kissing in the hospital room with Mei'er, did I ever say where we kissed?
"I...I..." My joke had actually left this innocent little nurse speechless, and although her embarrassed expression was quite cute, I didn't want to give her a bad impression either. If things were blown because of this one sentence, it would be utterly tragic.
"Alright, I was just joking with you! You look so anxious, am I that bad?!" The atmosphere suddenly became a bit awkward. Although Xiaoxue's face was no longer red, she still looked embarrassed. I had to find something to say to ease the tension: "So who is Gao Shuai? He seems to be quite interested in you."
"He..." Xiaoxue hesitated for a moment, seemingly thinking about something, before finally saying: "He was my middle school classmate..."
"It's that simple, you're like an older brother to me, I'm just a little kid who hasn't even grown out of my baby hair yet!" Obviously, Xiaoxue was hiding something, but the more she didn't say, the more I wanted to know. As expected, losers are always full of curiosity about everything unknown.
"He's been pursuing me since sophomore year, and he still is now, but I don't like him..." Xiaoxue said, her face turning red again, couldn't help but sigh that this little girl was really too shy.
"This young man looks quite good, his figure is okay, looking at the famous brand he's wearing, his family should have a lot of money, how can he not like it?" Actually, to talk about Gao Shuai, his appearance is still okay, after all, "male tall and handsome, female white and beautiful" this sentence still makes some sense.
Xiaoxue sighed: "But I don't have any feelings for him, he's not my type. And... while she was pursuing me, she was also flirting with other girls!"
Hearing Xiaoxue say that, Gao Shuai indeed wasn't a good thing. Originally there was some guilt, now her heart felt much more at ease.
"Your meaning is that I am your type?" I unintentionally teased her again, but unexpectedly she actually blushed, oh my god! In this era, there are still such innocent and lovely girls, it's unscientific!
"You're talking nonsense again!" Xiaoxue pretended to be a bit angry: "Hurry up and eat your rice noodles, they've gone cold."
"You've ruined my appetite with all this fuss, you eat it instead..." I pretended to be unhappy and lowered my head, but my eyes were still sneaking a peek at Xiaoxue.
That kind of small role won't make me lose my appetite, ever since Mei'er helped me build my foundation, I feel that my demand for food is not great, after being unconscious for three days, I didn't have any feeling of hunger, could this be the legendary "bottom"?
"Right, sorry, I didn't know he would come...". Xiaoxue heard my words and actually looked a bit anxious, it seems that she really shouldn't be joking around with him.
"Alright, you eat quickly, actually I had eaten before, when I woke up at that time I was so hungry, after all, I fainted for three days without eating anything, so I bought some snacks to fill my stomach, who knew it would be a sudden overeating!" I said with a smile.
Because this sentence was half true and half false, Xiaoxue nodded slightly and started eating her rice noodles.
Xiao Xue eats very slowly, and every mouthful of rice noodles has to be chewed for a long time. Looking at that little moving mouth, I almost drooled, but fortunately, this small thing, I can still hold on.
After half an hour, Xiaoxue still hadn't finished all the rice noodles and was already full after eating only half of it. I couldn't help but smile wryly and called out to the old boss in the shop to settle the bill.
I called out several times before the old man came over, he seemed quite busy by himself.
"Uncle, business is so good that you don't even want to take the money?" I joked with the busy and sweaty uncle, handing him the cash.
The uncle took the money, smiled apologetically: "There's only one person in the store, it's busy and slow, slow!" He also found a few small bills for me. Originally wanted to generously give the uncle a tip, after all, it's not easy for the uncle to maintain this small store alone. But thinking of the hospital examination fees that haven't been paid yet, I decisively put the money into my pocket.
"Hey, was that young man just now a home wrecker or something?" I was about to bid farewell to the old man, but he asked such a question, it seems that he saw what happened earlier, but this question of his has put me in a difficult spot.
Seeing me speechless, the uncle continued: "Young man, I think this little girl is quite good, you must cherish her well!" After finishing speaking, he even patted my shoulder, and only left after someone called him.
Xiao Xue was embarrassed by Uncle's words and her face turned bright red again. I didn't know what to say, so I just dryly laughed.
Originally planned to finish dinner and find another excuse to go somewhere else with Xiaoxue, but who would have thought that a tall and handsome guy would suddenly appear halfway, and then who would have thought that Xiaoxue eats so slowly.
But I still had some lingering thoughts, and suggested to Xiaoxue that we go play at the nearby children's amusement park. Yeah, it was a children's amusement park - other places really weren't within my means as a loser, or else I wouldn't have only taken her to eat rice noodles.
But Xiaoxue said she still had to go to work, so this matter could only be abandoned. When we arrived at the hospital entrance, Xiaoxue and I parted ways. She went to put on her nurse uniform for work, while I was going to settle my medical expenses and hospitalization fees.
"Hello, I'm a patient from room 2013. My body is almost fine now, and I've come to settle the bill." I said to an auntie inside through the window.
"Just then..." The aunt was saying, suddenly said: "Are you from room 2013? A miss has already helped you settle the bill earlier, you can leave now."
"Has someone settled the bill? Auntie, can you describe what she looks like?" I was puzzled, as I didn't have many female friends, and could even say none. Just a moment ago, I got to know Xiaoxue, could it be her?
But then I heard the old lady describe someone, and it scared me. It turned out to be our ferocious female teacher from back in the day who had entered early menopause! This joke was getting out of hand. After saying goodbye to the old lady, I prepared to leave the hospital, but after just a few steps, I heard the old lady muttering behind my back: "This kid looks perfectly normal, how did he end up becoming a gigolo? Nowadays...sigh...it's really hard to understand!" When I heard that, I almost died. It seems that having good hearing isn't always a good thing.
