Chapter 671: Chapter 671: Should I Stay?_1
“The doctor said it’s nothing major. She has suffered a head injury and some abrasions elsewhere, but no significant damage to the tendons or bones,” the assistant quickly and respectfully answered.
Chai Xiyang stared at the unconscious Qiao Ning, his anxious heart finally settling silently.
Then, he asked the assistant to return to work, while he stayed to take care of Qiao Ning.
Qiao Ning had lost too much blood, but she didn’t remain unconscious for long.
Opening her eyes, in her groggy state, she saw a man sitting next to her.
As her vision gradually cleared up, the man’s deep, familiar features came into her view!
Qiao Ning was surprised. It was Chai Xiyang!
“Why are you here?” Qiao Ning asked in confusion, looking around, “What happened to me?”
Seeing that Qiao Ning could talk without issue, Chai Xiyang flatly commented, “This is a hospital. You fell off a horse.”
“Oh, right…” Qiao Ning suddenly remembered what happened before she fainted. She had been filming a circus scene and had fallen off a horse!
Just as Qiao Ning was about to ask if her arms or legs were intact, a wave of pain hit her head. She raised her hand to touch it, but Chai Xiyang grabbed her wrist to stop her.
“You’ve got a head injury, don’t touch it!”
Qiao Ning blinked, nodding her understanding: “Oh…”

Chai Xiyang released her slender wrist, his first realization was that she seemed thinner.
She had only been shooting for a few days. How had she lost more weight?
Qiao Ning tried to sense her body’s condition; it mostly seemed alright, which reassured her quite a bit.
Then she looked at him, even more confused, “Why are you here?”
“I just happened to be passing by to check on the shooting. Who would have thought I would witness your accident! Everyone in the crew is busy, so I had to stay to take care of you,” Chai Xiyang answered coldly, his reason was quite reasonable.
However, for some reason, Qiao Ning had an odd feeling.
What was even stranger was…
He actually stayed. He hadn’t left even when it was nighttime.
During the day, he even took care of her meals…
Qiao Ning didn’t know what to say to him. After all, she had spent most of the day sleeping.
It was just that when night fell, she couldn’t sleep.
Looking outside at the night scene, Qiao Ning asked Chai Xiyang, who had been working on his laptop on the sofa, “Aren’t you going back?”
Chai Xiyang glanced up mildly, “Is there a problem?”
Of course there was a problem!
If he wasn’t leaving, was he planning to stay here?
“I don’t need anyone to take care of me, I’ll be fine on my own.”
Chai Xiyang continued working without even lifting his head, “You almost fell to your death. The doctor said you need to be observed for two days before you can be discharged! Conveniently, I have things to take care of here in the next two days, so I may as well keep an eye on you. If you died, my loss would be considerable!”
“I’m really fine now…”
“Whether you’re fine or not isn’t for you to decide!”
“But…”
Chai Xiyang lifted his head impatiently, “Can you shut up and stop disturbing my work?”
Qiao Ning: “…”
Forget it, let him stay if he wanted to. Qiao Ning decided to ignore him. Anyway, she had no idea what he was thinking.
But even though she said it was easy, her mood was slightly agitated.
Chai Xiyang had never done something like this before, recently he had been acting more and more out of character.
If anyone suggested he had fallen for her, Qiao Ning wouldn’t believe it!
It was already fortunate that he didn’t hate her. To actually like her? Impossible, even in the next lifetime.
The grudges between them couldn’t be resolved, so he would never like her.
The only explanation was: he was trying to make it up to her.
Maybe he felt guilty for misunderstanding her in the past, or maybe it was out of pity for her current plight. That must be why he was trying to make amends.
