Chapter 97 Television Report

  I woke up in agony and struggle, looking at everything in front of me, a strange room, strange furniture, soon I reacted that this is not my room, but where is this? Why am I here?

  However, this room made me feel surprisingly comfortable, and it had a familiar lavender scent.

  I hadn't even had time to think more about where I'd smelled that scent before, when a voice disrupted my thoughts: "Bing, you're awake?"

  I turned around and saw Xuan's face suddenly large in front of me, I was startled, it turned out he just wanted to touch my forehead.

  I looked at him doubtfully, and he seemed to have received my expression, saying: "Don't be afraid. This is my home, don't look like you're about to be eaten."

  "Hehe, then how did I end up here?"

  He didn't answer me and just walked out, but he came back after a while. However, there was a cup of water and medicine in his hand.

  He walked up to me and said, "You fainted in the cherry blossom forest and had a fever. As your boyfriend, I couldn't just leave you there. So I took you to my house."

  "Oh." I finally understood why he touched my forehead.

  "Here, I've brought you medicine and water. Hurry up and take it. How are you feeling now?" Xuan said with a worried face.

  I knew his words had two meanings, but I ignored the other one: "It's all right now, although my head was a bit dizzy just now. There's no need to take medicine anymore, and nothing is wrong."

  However, he stubbornly stuffed the medicine into my hand and said, "Hurry up and swallow it, do you want me to feed you? That's also possible."

  I caught his drift and quickly chimed in, saying: "Ok, can't I eat either?"

  "Hehe. Right, I just called Hao and told him you're here with me."

  "Oh. Well..." I put the cup on the bedside table.

  "Don't worry. I only told them you were tired, so I brought you to my place. I didn't tell them about your fever because I know you don't want them to worry."

  "Awesome, really is..."

  My words were cut off as something soft covered my mouth. He kissed me.

  I stared at him with wide eyes and finally closed them too.

  After a while, he let go of me and said: "Don't say thank you again, you're my girlfriend, aren't you? Bing, I really want to share some burdens with you too. I really like you. Alright, tidy up, I'll wait for you in the living room."

  I nodded. I took a glance around the room, and the decoration was to my liking - simple yet elegant. Mainly in white and gray. Monotony gave people a fresh feeling.

  Let me think again about what happened with grandma, take a deep breath and tell myself not to worry about this kind of thing anymore, this is not the real me. Although I don't understand what grandma said, but I firmly believe in my own path.

  Having composed myself, I was led into the living room by the loudly chattering maid.

  The maid was about to tell me that Xuan had arrived, but I stopped her, putting my hand over her mouth, signaling her not to speak. She understood what I meant and obediently closed her mouth, slowly backing away.

  I crept up quietly behind Xuan, who was intently staring at the TV, so absorbed in what he was watching that he didn't even notice me approaching him.

  I walked up behind him and was just about to scare him when I saw the TV and my hand froze in mid-air.

  The scene on TV is like this: The two high-rise buildings we see now are the Chi Group and the Lu Group, both of which are among the top 30 in the world. These two buildings stand tall and majestic as usual.

  However, to our surprise, the two groups suddenly plummeted in stock prices within a day today, and even faced the possibility of bankruptcy, with more severe consequences possibly leading to bankruptcy declarations.

  This is big news in the political circle, what kind of big shot did these two major groups offend? However, who has such a great power to make the world's top 20 groups face such a severe challenge in an instant?
