Sheng Qi stared at him coldly and hurled the two large bags of snacks he was carrying directly at him.
Zhang Xiaochu couldn't dodge in time, and the bags slammed into him, making him gasp in pain.
"You're in such good spirits—looks like you can be discharged tomorrow!" Sheng Qi said icily.
Under Sheng Qi's gaze, Zhang Xiaochu inexplicably felt a chill run down his spine.
The big shot's aura was pretty unsettling.
"How about it? Can you be discharged tomorrow?" Bai Tang asked.
Zhang Xiaochu averted his gaze and looked at Bai Tang. "You come to see me, bring nothing, and still push me to leave the hospital?"
"Xiao Bai, am I no longer your coolest Brother Chu?"
Bai Tang rolled her eyes at him, letting him figure it out himself.
"Are you trying to compete with me for the title of drama king?"
Bai Tang raised an eyebrow, one hand on her hip, the other arm still in a sling, looking every bit like a little thug.
Zhang Xiaochu watched her roguish demeanor and couldn't help saying, "Xiao Bai, you're a girl—watch your image!"
"What's wrong with my image?"
Bai Tang raised her hand and smacked him right on the leg, making Zhang Xiaochu grit his teeth in pain.
Sheng Qi's gaze swept back and forth between the two, finally landing coldly on Zhang Xiaochu. "Xiao Bai?"
The sudden drop in temperature in the air made Zhang Xiaochu involuntarily stiffen.
"Is... is there a problem?" Zhang Xiaochu stammered for a moment.
As soon as he said it, he regretted it.
Damn, he'd lost in presence.
Zhang Xiaochu straightened his back, about to speak, but Sheng Qi turned to Bai Tang and said coolly, "Xiao Bai?"
Bai Tang flashed a bright smile. "Be good, I'm your Tangtang!"
After saying that to Sheng Qi, Bai Tang turned and glared at Zhang Xiaochu. "Who said you could call me Xiao Bai? Call me Sister Tang!"
Zhang Xiaochu: "...Xiao Bai..."
"Hm?" Bai Tang glared at him again. "Say it again if you dare?!"
Zhang Xiaochu: "..."
Damn!!!
Brother had already acknowledged my status, and this girl still dares to be stubborn!
Hmph!
Zhang Xiaochu silently reached for a bag of snacks nearby, opened it, and ate gloomily.
Bai Tang turned to Sheng Qi and said with a smile, "He's lost his mind! We won't stoop to his level!"
"You're the one who's lost your mind!" Zhang Xiaochu retorted, annoyed.
This brat had no backbone!
The more Zhang Xiaochu thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. He'd gotten the big brother-in-law's approval himself—how could he cave under Sheng Qi's presence!
He had to fight back!
But looking at Sheng Qi's chilling gaze, Zhang Xiaochu couldn't help swallowing nervously, telling himself not to chicken out!
"Given our relationship, why can't I call her Xiao Bai?" Zhang Xiaochu puffed out his chest.
He absolutely couldn't lose face!
"Ow, it hurts!" Zhang Xiaochu grabbed his head and glared at Bai Tang. "Why'd you hit me?"
"Shut up!" Bai Tang warned.
It must be because Bai Wu called her Xiao Bai when he came over, so Zhang Xiaochu copied it!
Thinking about it, Bai Tang wanted to kick Zhang Xiaochu to the ground.
"Discharge tomorrow," Sheng Qi said expressionlessly, his tone flat. "The college entrance exam is coming up. If you don't work hard, there won't be time."
With that, Sheng Qi turned to Bai Tang. "Since you've seen him, let's go now. I'll take you back."
Without giving Bai Tang a chance to respond, he grabbed her by the back of the collar and dragged her out.
"Hey, what's the deal? You've only been here for less than five minutes!" Zhang Xiaochu yelled. "Is this how you visit a patient?"
His only answer was the sound of the hospital door closing.
Zhang Xiaochu: "..."
