Chapter 528: Chapter 528: Stopping By to Check on You

Wei Yaoyao looked at him with sympathy.

"It’s fine, just looks like he has no energy, doesn’t even want to move when Xie Qingci is hugging him."

Why did he have to mention Xie Qingci? Song Xi originally wanted to ask something, but now he’s lost the mood.

"Thanks for the fruits, you should go up and see them."

Their relationship was never that great to begin with. Wei Yaoyao is a person that’s hard to figure out, sometimes smilingly mocking him to provoke him, sometimes being overly kind and caring, but often using that care as an opportunity to stab him in the heart, driving him mad.

Wei Yaoyao didn’t plan on leaving, hypocritically peeling another orange for him.

"Don’t be in a hurry to kick me out, I just got comfortable. Here, have another orange. Good people like me are few and far between, you should cherish it. Tell me, besides me, who else comes to see you?"

Song Xi looked at him gloomily.

Wei Yaoyao: "See? No one, right? Only me with my good heart. You, such a fine young lad, going in and out of the hospital every now and then, ending up like this, and gaining nothing, what’s the point? Quickly transfer and get a normal job, look at me, occasionally appearing on a variety show is also quite good."

He’s like an old neighbor, babbling mixed with sugar-coated concern.

"I know you have great ability and ambition, wanting to compete with Xie Qingci since your debut, but didn’t the ancestors say? Luck is also a part of strength, his good development shows he definitely has strengths over you. You shouldn’t compare with him in everything. People like him are quick, precise, and ruthless in love, doesn’t it indicate he’s a fierce person too? You need to learn to let go of your obsession and be a good person."

Song Xi almost wanted to use his IV hand to slap him out.

"You really are idle with nothing to do, here to babble nonsense. As if you don’t compare yourself with him."

"Me? What do I have to compare with him?" Wei Yaoyao forced two slices of orange into his hands and clapped his hands.

"My old dream was just to debut and find a platform to express myself, and earn some money, better than working for 5000 bucks a month and worrying about stopping health insurance payments when sick. I’m much better off than my initial expectations, what is there to be dissatisfied with? Comparing with others every day, do you think it’s possible? Just take a walk down the luxury ward corridor, you might anger yourself into illness."

He paused: "You haven’t toured upstairs yet, have you? How about I take you up to see Yu Xia? Experience a place full of the aroma of money, so you know earning money should be your first priority, like this—"

He lowered his voice, gloating: "Poor to the point where you can’t even pay for one cycle of treatment for Yu Xia."

Song Xi’s veins were about to burst.

Recently, he was in a lawsuit with his former agency, with penalty fees reaching millions, after spending that, he really couldn’t sustain the cost of a luxury room in a private hospital.

And no matter how independent Yu Xia was, she was a pampered young lady since childhood. If they really had something, he wouldn’t even dare promise much.

This realization pained his head, looking at Wei Yaoyao munching oranges self-governingly, he kicked him.

"You with your endless chattering, finish eating and leave, I need to rest."

Wei Yaoyao shrugged: "Alright, anyways, the smell here isn’t as nice as upstairs."

Wei Yaoyao stood up, pulled two oranges from the bag, and waved them at him.

"Mind if I take these two? They’re pretty sweet, seems like I bought them from the right place, I’ll go buy from there next time."

Song Xi’s forehead veins were throbbing: "Hurry up and leave!"

Wei Yaoyao ran off with a smile.

He went up two floors to Yu Xia’s ward, and as he entered, handed the peeled orange to Xie Qingci.

"This orange is quite sweet, give it to Yu Xia to taste. Song Xi’s spirit seems fine, should be no major issues."

Xie Qingci wasn’t really concerned about Song Xi’s condition, broke open a segment of orange to feed Yu Xia.

"How’s it taste?"

"It’s okay, give me another piece."

Yu Xia took off her small leather shoes and huddled up on the hospital bed, not lying flat, still nestled in Xie Qingci’s arms.

Wei Yaoyao accidentally glanced at her lace socks, then looked at Xie Qingci’s indescribably wonderful expression when being relied upon, his expression was complex.

"I was just about to ask, Yu Xia, why did you change your style?"

The pure white lace socks, the innocent high ponytail, including the cute decorations on the skirt, all made him feel a bit uncomfortable.

The Yu Xia in his impression should be striding in high heels with fiery red lips, exuding dominance.

Yu Xia was tired of the question, casually pointed to Xie Qingci.

"Ask him, he has rather peculiar tastes."

Wei Yaoyao showed a look of understanding, gossiping to Xie Qingci: "Bro, it’s not that you don’t like playing games, but rather your preferences are quite unique, into dress-up games?"

A tall, cold handsome guy, turns out in private he likes spending money on Miraculous Warmth games? Truly "know the face, not the heart."

Xie Qingci reached out to wipe Yu Xia’s lips, not raising his head while speaking: "Stop filling your mind with baseless imagination. You got no shows lined up?"

"Nope, no fun shows recently, I’ve been writing songs with Ning Yunchao. You wouldn’t know this, but Ning Yunchao seems to have met some dream lover lately, the songs he writes are either sickly sweet or ridiculously bitter, I barely managed to escape for some fresh air."

Xie Qingci wasn’t interested, but Yu Xia showed some spirit, though not concerning Ning Yunchao, rather targeting Wei Yaoyao himself.

"I haven’t asked you, how are things with Zheng Jinjin and Lan Hui? It’s been months."

Wei Yaoyao rested his elbow, pouting hearing it.

"Nothing much, just as ordinary friends, texting and chatting about work."

"Zheng Jinjin is quite the expert, hasn’t she piqued any thoughts in you?"

"Experts only make people feel oppressed. By the way, Yu Xia, you might not know, Liu Ji is pursuing Zheng Jinjin. I did some digging, Zhou Yu said she’s getting back with Liu Yicheng, but hasn’t given up on Liu Ji, they’re also in contact."

Xie Qingci: "Where did you hear this?"

He was just a one-time guest on a show, yet he seemed to know more than the regulars about follow-up matters.

Wei Yaoyao’s eyebrows danced: "From Zheng Jinjin and Lan Hui, I also know about Qian Ling and Ling Yan’s tangled past. You guys wouldn’t know because both of you are busy being sweetly cuddly, no time for others’ gossip."

They can’t even keep up with their own gossip.

Yu Xia was amused by his expression, leaning into Xie Qingci listening like watching a play, quite focused.

"I just finished filming, didn’t have time to pry into other’s gossip. Xie Qingci naturally doesn’t like to inquire about these."

"Yes, yes," Wei Yaoyao said teasingly, "he just likes to inquire about your stuff, both his eyes might just fall on you. I’ve been in twice, stood here this long, he hasn’t even looked at me properly twice."

Xie Qingci: "What’s there to look at?"

Wei Yaoyao touched his wool curls: "True, I can’t exactly be like a Barbie doll for you to dress, indeed not much to see."
