When Chi Xin arrived, he happened to see both of them asleep. His nephew had even climbed onto the other person's bed and was sleeping while hugging them. It was an awkward sight to behold.
Seeing that everything was fine, Chi Xin left first.
By the time Chi Yan and Chu Yang woke up, it was already afternoon. Chu Yang hadn't felt hungry before because she had been drinking glucose, but Chi Yan's stomach was growling with hunger.
"You should go home, have a meal, and take a shower before coming back," Chu Yang said, noticing the bloodstains on Chi Yan's clothes.
Chi Yan looked at himself and nodded. "Alright, I'll come back soon."
After Chi Yan left, Chu Yang turned on the television. The news on TV stated, "Zhu's Enterprise is currently under investigation."
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow. Zhu Ying had disappeared somewhere. Did the mighty Zhu's Enterprise lose its influence? The news didn't provide many details, only mentioning that Zhu's Enterprise was being investigated. Chu Yang couldn't gather much information from it, so she changed the channel.
The next channel showed a documentary about a village in the West that used to have witches, but now there were only ordinary people. However, strange things happened in this village. For example, many crows would come out every night, and there was a temple in the village where everyone claimed there was a witch statue, although it couldn't be verified.
Some information could be found in certain books, but nothing was explicitly stated. It only mentioned that witches appeared during the Middle Ages, wearing black robes and holding a staff and a crystal ball. A crow would perch on their shoulders, and a dark creature would kneel in front of them.
Most people considered it a myth and didn't take it seriously.
Witches were skilled in divination and the creation of potions. These potions could heal people or poison creatures, and they could summon powerful monsters. The dark creatures were their allies, with crows being one of them.
When Chu Yang saw the mention of a "staff," she thought of the staff from her family that she had practiced with as a child. After that, she never used it again, focusing solely on her divination. The staff didn't come with her when she transmigrated; otherwise, how could Zhu Ying have escaped with just injuries?
Now she didn't have the crystal ball either, and without the staff, her witch powers had diminished by more than half. It would probably take her at least a month or two to recover.
Sigh, such is life. It has its ups and downs.
What kind of book did she transmigrate into? She thought it was supposed to be a sweet campus romance. She thought it was supposed to be about the love story between the female lead and the handsome male lead.
The television continued with the legends, and Chu Yang remembered the address mentioned on TV. She didn't continue watching and instead switched it off.
Two hours later, Chi Yan arrived with food and Chu Yang's clothes.
Chu Yang drank her porridge while Chi Yan watched her. When he saw a strand of her hair falling forward, he reached out and tucked it behind her ear.
After they finished eating, Chu Yang wanted to use the bathroom. Just as she was about to get out of bed, Chi Yan became nervous. "What's wrong? Where are you going?"
Chu Yang replied, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Chi Yan asked anxiously, "Shall I support you or carry you there? Do you need my help?"
Chu Yang replied, "...I only injured my hand and arm. My legs are fine." What kind of help did he mean? Help her take off her pants?
Chi Yan released his grip and said, "Oh."
Chu Yang came out of the bathroom and lay back on the bed. She wanted to take a shower, but it wasn't possible. However, she could still freshen up.
"Help me prepare some hot water so I can freshen up. Give me some clothes to change into," Chu Yang ordered Chi Yan. She was wearing a hospital gown, but she needed to change her clothes underneath.
Chi Yan was puzzled, "What's wrong? Do you want to wash your feet? I'll do it right away."
Chu Yang replied, "No, I just want to freshen up." It had been two days, and even though the room had air conditioning, Chu Yang still wanted to freshen up.
Chi Yan hesitated, "Ah? But your wounds can't come into contact with water. Besides, you injured one shoulder and one wrist." Chi Yan blushed and continued, "Or should I help you?"
Chu Yang snapped her fingers at him, "Dream on. I can manage on my own, and it's just a quick freshen up. Hurry up and get the water."
"Oh."
Chi Yan filled a basin with hot water and also brought a small stool. "Yang Yang, it's ready."
Chu Yang walked into the bathroom and closed the door. Chi Yan sat outside, waiting. "If you need any help, just call me."
Chu Yang ignored him. What a pervert!
She carefully used a towel to clean herself. Although her arm and wrist were a bit sore when she moved, she could endure it.
After about half an hour, Chu Yang came out, feeling refreshed. "Where is the laundry detergent or laundry soap?"
Chi Yan immediately walked over. "Ah? You want to wash your clothes too? I'll do it." He rushed into the washroom, took out a small bottle of detergent from one of the cabinets, and began washing the clothes.
Chu Yang didn't react in time and saw Chi Yan washing her clothes with her small clothes, looking very serious.
Chu Yang covered her eyes with her hand, her ears turning red. Oh my!
Out of sight, out of embarrassment. Chu Yang returned to the bed and covered herself with the blanket.
After a long period of mental adjustment, she reminded herself that he was her boyfriend, and this was something he should do. Yes, even if he didn't do it now, he would do it in the future. Right!
Chu Yang uncovered the blanket, took the remote control, and turned on the TV, pretending that nothing had happened.
When Chi Yan came out, Chu Yang still couldn't avoid blushing, but she didn't dare to look at him.
Chi Yan looked at Chu Yang watching TV and walked over, took off his shoes, and sat next to her on the bed.
Chu Yang turned her head to look at him, puzzled.
Chi Yan said matter-of-factly, "I'm not leaving tonight. I'll stay here with you."
Oh well! They had slept together before anyway.
"By the way, help me buy a new phone. My phone broke," Chu Yang almost forgot.
Chi Yan slapped his forehead, "You didn't mention it, and I almost forgot too. I bought one for you today. I thought you lost your phone, so I got you a new one with a new SIM card inside."
"Great."
After struggling with the phone for a while, Chu Yang finally recovered her WeChat and other accounts. She thought about posting a Weibo announcement: "The blogger is temporarily unavailable for business consultations."
Then she replied to Jin Yang and the others.
Jin Yang asked, "Yang Yang, where did you go? Are you really having a private moment with Chi Yan, the campus heartthrob?" Even though Chi Yan said that, they didn't believe it. Yang Yang would never neglect her studies for the sake of having fun.
Chu Yang: "I'm going out to save the world. [Hush]."
Jin Yang quickly replied, "Understood, got it."
Then Chu Yang informed her family about changing her phone number and also posted an update in her social circle about the number change.
After completing all of this, Chu Yang felt exhausted. Her body was already weak, so she tired quickly. During that time, a nurse came to check on her, changed her medication, and then left. Chu Yang asked Chi Yan to turn off the TV and then lay down to sleep.
Chi Yan also lay down beside her, keeping his hands to himself and trying not to touch Chu Yang's arm.
