Chapter 27: Beautiful Doll
Song Yuceng put his hands in his pockets and watched coldly as the boy on the hospital bed turned his head, his slender, pale jawline tightly set, seemingly unwilling to talk to him.
He felt even more annoyed. How dare this country bumpkin get angry with him?
Song Yuceng turned around and left. The hospital was a private one located within the villa grounds, very close to the center of the villa. However, just as he reached the door, the boy’s vulnerable face suddenly appeared in his mind, and his expression darkened.
But Song Yuceng only hesitated for a moment before leaving without looking back.
The scorching feeling, as if from a volcano at any moment, instantly disappeared from the hospital room. Tao Ning lowered his head, his face devoid of any expression, like a beautiful doll in a delicate display case.
Little dummy, I’ll play a cartoon in your head so you can watch it without your eyes.
The boy nodded. A moment later, a light finally lit up in the dark world, a huge screen showing many little sheep, bleating non-stop.
Baa, baa, baa, baa.
The system was watching with great interest, but after a long time, it didn’t hear Tao Ning say anything, so it asked him: Little dummy, don’t you like it?
“I like it.”
Then why haven’t you said anything for so long?
Tao Ning quietly covered his stomach, a blush rising on his bloodless face. “Because it’s making me hungry.”
They are so cute, little dummy, and you want to eat them?!
The system: …
The boy and the AI started chatting idly. For the most part, the system was talking, and Tao Ning was listening.
The system complained that its AI colleagues were like low-level AI morons. It also said that it only got a participation prize in the last sunflower seed-eating contest, which made it so angry that it decided to practice its sunflower seed-eating skills more. It also said that during a holiday before that, it was curious about human roast chicken and took a bite, but it couldn’t taste anything and almost had to be sent back to the factory for repairs…
Gradually, listening to the system’s chatter, the boy on the hospital bed closed his eyes and fell asleep.
But he hadn’t been asleep for long when the door to the hospital room was opened with a bang. It was clear that the person who came was not polite. Then, an elderly voice said tremblingly, “Little Cong, you should be gentler next time, or this door will be kicked to pieces again.”
It was strange that the man, who was usually like a firecracker, didn’t argue. Instead, he snorted coldly and said, “What’s with all the nonsense? The country bumpkin’s eyes are a little messed up. You should check them for him.”
Following Song Yuceng was an old doctor with white hair and reading glasses. The boy on the hospital bed had already woken up when the door was kicked open. He “looked” over blankly. His light brown eyes, even without a light in them, were as beautiful as amber.
The old doctor admired the boy’s appearance. “A rare pearl in this world. No wonder you were so anxious, Little Cong…”
“I said, stop talking nonsense.”
The old doctor sighed and shook his head. He walked in front of the somewhat bewildered Tao Ning, took out an instrument, and said in a gentle voice, “Good boy, open your eyes wide.”
Tao Ning listened to their conversation and knew that Song Yuceng had called the doctor to check his eyes. He couldn’t help but find Song Yuceng’s moody behavior strange. Although he knew the doctor couldn’t cure him, he still obediently tilted his face up and opened his eyes wide.
The boy’s face was tilted up, his finely outlined eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting, with a red mouth and a delicate nose. Because he was looking up, his long and slender swan-like neck was completely exposed.
Song Yuceng glanced at him and moved his gaze away critically. After a few seconds, he looked back again. After a few more seconds, he moved his gaze away with a dark face. This went on and on until the old doctor said, “How strange…”
Song Yuceng seemed to have finally found something else to focus on. He quickly asked, “Is he really blind?”
The old doctor looked at him as if he were a three-year-old child and sighed. “Little Cong, if you keep talking so harshly, you’ll miss out on this pearl in the future.”
Song Yuceng naturally understood the old doctor’s subtext. He said with a cold face, “What’s it to me? What do you want to say?”
“There’s nothing wrong with this child’s eyes. Or perhaps there is, but I can’t see it. Please call a professional ophthalmologist.”
“Aren’t you a professional?”
“Young master, you’re so forgetful. Have you forgotten? My main job was to treat your psychological… “
“Shut up!” Song Yuceng snapped, gritting his teeth and saying, “Don’t push your luck. I’m sending you back now.”
The old doctor sighed and shook his head, not taking his words seriously. He slowly walked out the door, and as he reached the entrance, he added, “His elbow is all black and blue. You should also find a good doctor to look at it.”
Song Yuceng’s face was dark, but he looked back for a moment. However, the boy’s arms were under the covers on the bed, so he couldn’t see anything.
He withdrew his gaze and urged, “Hurry up and go.”
The hospital room was once again quiet. Tao Ning sat on the bed in a daze because the system was also gone, but it wasn’t long before the door was kicked open again. Then, he heard a crowd of people come in, and the man’s impatient voice: “Take him away.”
Take him away… to where?
Tao Ning was a little nervous, but the next second, his wrist was suddenly grabbed by a cold hand, which was even colder than his body temperature. The cold touch made him shiver. Then, it was Song Yuceng’s voice: “Wait, check this first.”
Tao Ning was stunned and a little slow to react. After a long time, he finally understood that the person holding his wrist was Song Yuceng. He had never had any physical contact with him before. The man looked like a volcano that was about to erupt at any moment, with boiling hot magma that seemed to want to burn everyone who came near him beyond recognition.
But the moment their skin touched, Tao Ning realized that Song Yuceng’s body temperature was very low, like a piece of ice that could never be warmed up.
The cold touch didn’t stay long and disappeared quickly. Then, a doctor carefully lifted his arm, and cold liquid medicine was applied to his elbow. Finally, they wrapped it in soft gauze.
After everything was taken care of, the doctor pushed the hospital bed away and put it in a car. The group took the boy to the best private hospital in Haizhou.
Tao Ning had already fallen asleep on the way. When he woke up again, the long-lost light was so bright that he couldn’t help but squint. His vision had returned. Had twelve hours really passed?
When he opened his eyes, through his blurry vision, the first thing he saw was Song Yuceng’s handsome and sharp face. He was staring at him, seemingly unaware that the boy’s vision had returned.
Seeing the boy wake up, he awkwardly moved his eyes away, but the next second, he was still staring.
Song Yuceng had his arms crossed and his legs crossed arrogantly. His phoenix-shaped eyes were drooping, which made him look very impatient. It seemed that he was forced to be there and was very reluctant.
But on closer inspection, one could find that his gaze was always fixed on the person on the hospital bed. When the boy opened his eyes, his gaze only froze for a moment, moved away for a second, and then continued to stare at the boy without any hesitation.
Time passed by, and the two “looked at each other.” Neither of them said a word until Tao Ning blinked and said:
“I can see.”
“…”
Song Yuceng’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot at a visible speed. He quickly moved his gaze away and snorted coldly, “Who was looking at a country bumpkin like you? Don’t flatter yourself.”
Tao Ning looked at him and didn’t say anything. The atmosphere in the hospital room gradually became strange. Suddenly, his stomach under the blanket rumbled. He was very hungry.
Lowering his eyes, the boy asked in a soft voice, “Is there a cafeteria here? I want to eat.”
Hearing this, Song Yuceng snorted coldly and stood up with a “swish.” Without saying a word to the person behind him, he turned around and left the hospital room.
Seeing him leave, Tao Ning got out of bed and planned to find something to eat, but after going out, he realized that the hospital was too big, and he gradually got lost.
Until a man in a suit and tie came over, got close to him, and asked with a smile, “Hello, are you lost?”
The incredibly beautiful boy standing alone in the corner nodded. The man in the suit was delighted. After quickly finding out where the boy wanted to go, he volunteered to show him around, saying he was very familiar with the hospital and would take him to find something to eat.
Along the way, the man in the suit spoke with a familiar and proper tone. He couldn’t wait to lean his whole body over, but the boy, like a young deer that had just stepped out of the forest and was ignorant of the world, didn’t notice the man’s greed at all.
Suddenly, a figure so cold it seemed to freeze the surrounding area came over. The man was tall with long legs, his hands in his pockets. He was followed by several people pushing a food cart and holding cold dishes.
“What are you doing?”
The man’s voice was as cold as a blizzard below zero and as if from a volcano about to erupt.
