Chapter 2793 You're Not a Man

Qin Feng returned to the hospital and easily found his way to the ward door.

This time, the bodyguards at the door didn't stop Qin Feng and let him push the door open and go in.

When Qin Feng pushed open the ward door and went in, Zhang Yingying was lying on the hospital bed. The nurse was changing her dressing, and her assistant was still in the ward talking to her.

Qin Feng walked in and stood at the door looking at Zhang Yingying. Zhang Yingying also looked up at Qin Feng, but neither of them spoke.

Zhang Yingying's gaze towards Qin Feng was complex, so complex that Qin Feng couldn't discern the emotions within it.

The assistant and the nurse changing the dressing looked at Qin Feng strangely as he walked into the ward without saying a word.

"Nurse, you can leave now that the dressing has been changed. I'll call you if anything happens," Zhang Yingying said to the nurse.

The nurse packed her things and left.

"I'll go find the doctor." The assistant, being very understanding, followed the nurse out and closed the ward door behind her.

Only Qin Feng and Zhang Yingying remained in the ward, which made Qin Feng feel somewhat lost. Standing at the door of the ward, he didn't know what to say or whether he should go in.

After all, Qin Feng hadn't contacted Zhang Yingying for a long time, and they shouldn't be in contact now, but they used to have such a close relationship.

"Aren't you planning to come?" Zhang Yingying asked, biting her lip. Suddenly, crystal tears streamed down her face as she stared at Qin Feng.

Looking into Zhang Yingying's eyes and seeing the tears on her face, Qin Feng felt a pang of heartache.

Qin Feng slowly walked to the bedside, tore off a tissue, and handed it to Zhang Yingying: "Does it hurt?"

Zhang Yingying snatched the tissue from Qin Feng's hand, her actions filled with emotion.

"Qin Feng, I've noticed you're getting more and more cowardly, so cowardly you're not even like a man. Is it because you've become a high-ranking official and your courage has shrunk, or have you been completely tamed by Zhou Qian?" Zhang Yingying cursed Qin Feng through gritted teeth, showing just how much she "hated" him.

Qin Feng wasn't angry at all when Zhang Yingying scolded him; instead, he laughed.

"What are you laughing at? Do you know how ugly your smile is? Look at yourself, are you even a man now? You don't even dare to look at me. I'm starting to doubt if you're still a man." Zhang Yingying's anger hadn't completely subsided.

Qin Feng was still smiling. He picked up a banana next to him, peeled it, and handed it to Zhang Yingying: "You're so hot-tempered, and your voice is so loud when you scold me. It seems you're not in any serious health problems. That puts my mind at ease."

"Get lost!" Zhang Yingying cursed, still looking angry, but she was clearly amused by Qin Feng's words, though she was forcibly suppressing her laughter.

Zhang Yingying snatched the peeled banana from Qin Feng's hand again, and while eating it, she teased Qin Feng: "Did you buy this banana? You came to see me empty-handed, with no fruit or flowers. I have to be grateful to you for peeling someone else's banana for me. How have you become so shameless?"

Qin Feng smiled, looking at the gauze on Zhang Yingying's head and the many instruments inserted into her body. Her originally beautiful, slender hands were covered in bruises from the constant IV drips, which made Qin Feng feel very distressed.

"Does it hurt?" Qin Feng couldn't help but reach out and wipe away the tears that hadn't yet fallen from Zhang Yingying's face.

Qin Feng's question, "Does it hurt?" coupled with his sudden act of wiping away tears, seemed to break down Zhang Yingying's last line of defense. Her emotions poured out like a dam bursting, unstoppable.

Zhang Yingying broke down instantly, tears streaming down her face. She stared at Qin Feng through her teary eyes, then sat up and hugged him.

"It hurts...it hurts so much...I thought I was going to die when I fell off the horse...I haven't been able to eat or sleep these past few days because of the pain...Why didn't you come to see me sooner...Do you know how much I miss you...Do you know how I've been these past few years..."

Zhang Yingying hugged Qin Feng and burst into tears.

Every word Zhang Yingying said made Qin Feng's heart tremble, and he reached out and hugged Zhang Yingying tightly.

Qin Feng was always well aware of Zhang Yingying's love for him.

Zhang Yingying cried in Qin Feng's arms, and Qin Feng held her in his arms, but he didn't say a word because he didn't know what to say.

Zhang Yingying had clearly accumulated too many emotions and suppressed them for too long. She cried in Qin Feng's arms for a long time, pouring out her longing for him while crying. Instead, she didn't mention much about the pain from her injury.

She cried in Qin Feng's arms for more than ten minutes, until she had soaked Qin Feng's coat, before she finally calmed down and slowly sat up straight from Qin Feng's arms.

Because Zhang Yingying was receiving an IV drip and had just been very emotional, Qin Feng had been keeping a close eye on the medicine bottle.

Qin Feng picked up the banana that Zhang Yingying had eaten a few bites of and left by the bed, and put it on the cabinet.

After venting her emotions, Zhang Yingying calmed down considerably and just looked at Qin Feng.

"Did you come to Beijing specifically to see me?" Zhang Yingying asked.

Qin Feng shook his head: "No, I just happened to be in Beijing for work, so I stopped by to see you."

Actually, Qin Feng came to Beijing mainly to visit Zhang Yingying, but Zhao Hongjian happened to call him and asked him to come to Beijing to report on his work.

However, Qin Feng didn't want Zhang Yingying to see through his true feelings, so he deliberately emphasized that he was just stopping by to see her.

Zhang Yingying was very dissatisfied with Qin Feng's answer. She pouted and said, "Your emotional intelligence is still so low. You can't even speak properly. Can't you just say you came to see me specifically? Do you expect me to investigate and verify it?"

Qin Feng smiled but didn't explain.

"Whether I came here specifically to see you or it was just on my way, it doesn't matter. What matters is that I'm relieved to see that you're alright."

“The news online makes your injury sound very serious, and there are all sorts of speculations and conjectures. The more I read, the more uncertain and uneasy I feel.” Qin Feng stood up and went to the side to pour hot water for Zhang Yingying.

"Whether it's news or social media, they all rely on clicks and traffic to survive. How can they get clicks if they don't exaggerate the problem or create enough sensationalism?"

"You never read entertainment news, how did you know I was injured? Who told you?" Zhang Yingying asked.

Zhang Yingying knows Qin Feng very well.

"Yes, Meng Dan told me," Qin Feng said, handing the water glass to Zhang Yingying: "Drink more hot water."

“Meng Dan?” Zhang Yingying was taken aback, clearly not remembering the name.

"Forgot? Xiao Jian'an's assistant. We got to know each other because of her," Qin Feng explained.

"Oh, what? You've still been in contact with her?"

"Due to work-related reasons, Xiao Jian'an went to invest in Shazhou. A few days ago, when we were having dinner together, Meng Dan suddenly mentioned your injury to me and asked if I knew about it. That's how I found out about your injury."

"Oh... I thought your wife told you."
