Zou Liming began to settle accounts for Chen Xiaoli: "In high school, you have to pay tuition, accommodation, and miscellaneous expenses. These items add up to a lot, and it will cost thousands of dollars in a year. As for the children who go to college, even if they can work and study part-time, Brother Li doesn't want them to work as hard as he does. He wants them to focus more on their studies and give them some money every month, let alone the smaller ones in the orphanage. Although they don't have to pay tuition for junior high school, they have to spend money when they live, and they can't save at all."

"He is an orphan?" Chen Xiaoli was stunned. She only knew that Li Kang was slap, but she didn't know that there was so much bitterness behind Li Kang.

He has just graduated and is going to raise such a big family?

No wonder he is so harsh with himself, no wonder he is too accustomed to other people's money.

Chen Xiaoli couldn't help but feel a little sore when she thought of all the previous things.

When Zou Liming was stunned when he saw Chen Xiaoli, he immediately stopped. Unexpectedly, Li Kang had never told Chen Xiaoli.

He didn't continue to say that observing words and expressions was one of the essential survival skills for these orphans since childhood.

Li Kang's eyes were closed on the hospital bed and he had no idea about their conversation.

At this time, in the dimension invisible to Chen Xiaoli and Zou Liming, a light ball was wandering around the room for several rounds, and finally took advantage of Li Kang's dizziness and weakness, and quietly penetrated into his mind like a cone.

The moment it crawled in, Zou Liming didn't notice it at all.

Only Chen Xiaoli suddenly turned to look at Li Kang on the bed, no longer the stunned moment.

As expected, Chen Xiaoli saw nothing, although she felt that there seemed to be something different there just now.

At this moment, Li Kang on the bed felt a pain in his scalp, and then he woke up quietly with a moan.

Chen Xiaoli no longer thought about the strangeness she felt before, but quickly stepped forward and reached out to Li Kang's forehead, with the same hand as cold sweat.

Chen Xiaoli didn't dislike him at all. Instead, he felt the temperature on Li Kang's forehead carefully and asked in a soft voice: "How do you feel?"

The voice is a long-lost gentleness. Apart from the initial call, Chen Xiaoli has never been so gentle in front of him.

And compared to the beginning, the coldness in this voice was gone.

Although Li Kang's scalp hurt like a needle, he was immersed in this gentle voice and had no time to care about it.

Li Kang, who was dreaming, decided that this was in a dream.

So he closed his eyes comfortably again, and sure enough, the soothing gentle voice sounded softly again: "Are you still uncomfortable?"

What followed was the quilt on his forehead.

The palm on the forehead was gentle and delicate, just like Li Kang's mother's hand that he once imagined.

He unconsciously raised his head and rubbed it, actively following the caress of the hand, his eyes gradually opened, and he half-squinted his eyes and enjoyed this rare tenderness.

Then, Li Kang suddenly felt that all this was too real. The next second he opened his eyes completely and looked at Chen Xiaoli. The two of them were stunned at the same time.

Zou Liming had left the room at some point, and there was only a faint embarrassment and ambiguity growing in the room of the two. Chen Xiaoli blushed, and Li Kang's slightly dark skin also showed a rare hint of redness.

The two looked at each other, then lowered their heads again.

"that……"

"that……"

The two of them spoke at the same time. Chen Xiaoli looked at Li Kang and smiled: "You talk first."

"Ahem." Li Kang cleared his throat, calmed down a lot, and then he asked in a hoarse voice: "When did you come back?"

“This morning.”

After answering, Chen Xiaoli saw that Li Kang seemed to have something to say, so he smiled and encouraged, "What else do you have to say? Let's say it together."

"Then I'll say it." Li Kang looked up and looked at Chen Xiaoli quickly, then glanced at another place. Chen Xiaoli felt his heart beating a little faster, and his tender white little hand couldn't help pinching a corner of his clothes.

Li Kang finally asked: "When will you... update?"

"No more update!" Chen Xiaoli's expression changed suddenly, then he stood up suddenly, turned around and left the ward angrily.

Zou Liming left, Chen Xiaoli also left, Li Kang, who was left in the ward, began to reflect on himself: "It is indeed a bit inhumane to urge him to update just now. Today is June 26th, so there is no hurry. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Thinking of this, Li Kang pulled the quilt and closed his eyes tiredly.

He was now drowsy and very tired, feeling even more tired than when he caught a cold, and another sensation came over him and fell asleep again.

In the dream, Li Kang felt that something was constantly hitting his brain, but that thing was always popped up. In this process, his energy was constantly consumed, and soon he felt very tired.

Consumption is mutual, and the ball of light lurking on the outer wall of Li Kang's brain is getting weaker and weaker, and finally becomes as if it will dissipate with a touch.

"I can't take over the body, just!" With an old sigh, the light ball calmed down and lurked quietly in his mind, as if he was recuperating.

It was not until this time that his brain finally completely relaxed, and then he fell into deep sleep.

"Doctor, why did he fall into a coma again? He was clearly awake just now." Chen Xiaoli, who had just returned to the ward, asked anxiously. Li Kang's face was still tired in his sleep, which made her very worried.

After a checkup, the doctor found that his fever had subsided a lot, and had changed from a high fever to a warm fever. He judged: "I should be too tired and fell asleep. After all, I had been in a fever for more than a day and my body was consumed too much. I would add another bottle of glucose to him."

Chen Xiaoli nodded, but she was nervous but didn't relax at all. The woman's intuition told her that things were not that simple.

But she couldn't tell what was wrong, just a hint of worry came to her eyebrows.

Finally, Li Kang's expression finally calmed down, and Chen Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief as if he had taken off the burden in his heart.

Two hours later, Li Kang's fever completely subsided, but he had not woken up. During this period, Chen Xiaoli had been guarding his bed like a puppet.

Until Zou Liming came to change shifts after get off work, Chen Xiaoli insisted on leaving.

Chen Xiaoli did not move the food delivered by Zou Liming.

"Miss Chen, Brother Li is awake for a while, so you can go and rest." Zou Liming said, pointing to the empty bed beside him.

Chen Xiaoli just shook his head silently.

It was at this moment that Li Kang woke up: "What time is it?"

His voice was dry and hoarse, as if he hadn't drunk water for several days.

He had indeed not drunk water for several days. Chen Xiaoli seemed to wake up from a dream and quickly picked up the thermos cup beside him, inserted a straw into it and handed it to his mouth.
