I clenched my buttocks, suddenly filled with a foreboding sense.

Gu Yongge stood at the head of my bed, reaching out to tug at the collar of his shirt.

The collar of his shirt was slightly open, revealing his Adam’s apple.

I stared at it for a while.

Gu Yongge started to undo his cuff.

I got up, steeling myself to head to the bathroom.

But at 1.9 meters tall, Gu Yongge easily grabbed my collar and tossed me back onto the hospital bed.

I looked at him somewhat awkwardly.

“Are you crazy?

“Let me out! I need to take a dump! You don’t want me to do it in your hospital room, do you?”

I was getting desperate.

Gu Yongge clearly wasn’t going to let me off that easily.

His gaze lingered on my face, then slowly shifted down to a specific spot:

“Turn around.

“Take off your pants.”

I was completely dumbfounded.

What was Gu Yongge trying to do?

He wouldn’t let me go to the bathroom and locked the door, keeping those lovely nurse sisters outside.

What time was it? Was he trying to mess with me?

My stomach was getting worse, and I was sweating profusely.

“If you don’t let me go soon, I’m really going to explode.”

Gu Yongge took out a syringe, gently pushing the air inside:

“Turn around, lie on the bed.

“If you dare to crap on me, later on, I won’t let you walk out with your dignity intact.”

—Then I realized, he was going to give me an enema.

Oh, how could I almost forget? Gu Yongge was a clean freak and stingy.

If I pooped first and then got the injection, he definitely wouldn’t be able to handle it.

But Gu Yongge should also know that I was terrified of pain.

I took a deep breath, encouraging myself.

Come on, Li Zhuo, you’re a tough guy who isn’t afraid of needles!

On the other side, Gu Yongge had already brought the needle down and stabbed it sharply into my gluteus maximus.

“Ah—”

The rest of my words turned into a scream.

It hurt!

…Family, who understands? I nearly clamped down too hard.

After the injection and the purge, I was overjoyed, thinking I was finally in the clear.

Remembering that I didn’t stream tonight, I quickly posted an update on social media.

“Friends, tonight the host was cursed by her ex-boyfriend and had a bad case of diarrhea, so I’ll be suspending the broadcast for a day.”

But fate didn’t favor me.

This night began with an upset stomach.

I felt like a dam that had burst, like a river overflowing.

The next morning.

I faced Gu Yongge’s ridicule, sporting two panda eyes.

“It looks like you’ve had a rough night.

“However, your situation is quite rare. Let’s get you admitted and figure this out before you leave.”

After dropping out of school and having a fallout with my family, cutting off all my financial support, I started to work as a streamer.

Years of irregular eating and sleeping habits had left my stomach in poor condition.

Seeing Gu Yongge looking indifferent, almost as if he was watching a show, made me unhappy.

I suddenly wanted to annoy him:

“Doctor Gu, don’t care too much.

“Are you being a bit too concerned about your ex?”

Gu Yongge casually picked up a small mirror from the bedside and held it up to me:

“Look at your face, it’s paler than a corpse that’s been dead for three days.”

I: “…”

He then said seriously:

“Furthermore, I want you to understand that the advice I just gave has nothing to do with our past relationship.

“I won’t allow any patient to walk out like this.”

I was about to retort.

Suddenly, my stomach let out a loud “gurgle.”

…Fine, after a night of discomfort, I really was hungry.

Gu Yongge seemed to have anticipated this moment.

He pulled out a thermal bag and placed it in front of me.

Gu Yongge adjusted his glasses.

I couldn’t figure out what he meant:

“What’s this? Is this food prepared for patients? Your hospital really is considerate.”

This time, Gu Yongge was choked by my words.

He cleared his throat and averted his gaze:

“…Um, you could say that.”

Once Gu Yongge walked away, I secretly opened the thermal bag and found a substantial breakfast inside, all of which I liked.

This hospital wasn’t bad.

Much better than my cold little rental apartment.

Feeling satisfied, I opened the lunch box and started eating heartily.

But I hadn’t even had a few bites when my phone’s WeChat notification suddenly went off repeatedly.

---

I focused on the screen to see it was my roommate Xu Lie.

“Hey? Why are you calling out of the blue? Did the landlord pressure you for rent again?”

On the other end, Xu Lie’s voice was filled with gossip.

“Little Zhuo, where are you?”

I frowned and cursed him:

“Where else could I be? I came to the hospital after eating spicy hot pot with you.

“You dog, you didn’t even come to see me?”

Xu Lie, like me, was a struggling streamer.

But he was different from me.

Xu Lie was great at gaming, had amazing skills, while I was just a mediocre side character without any real talent.

I always thought Xu Lie would get popular sooner or later, but my obscurity might last a lifetime.

Xu Lie was excited:

“You’re in the Third Hospital, right? You went to the emergency room in the middle of the night, wearing that black hoodie you love so much…”

Xu Lie sounded like he was in a hurry to confirm something.

I replied with a simple “yeah.”

Xu Lie was even more thrilled: “Damn, it really is you!

“Bro, you’re about to blow up!”

I was speechless:

“What the hell? I’m on fire? My butt is on fire, don’t provoke me.”

“Hurry and check out the short video app!

“If you really get famous, don’t forget your broke friend and the rent issue…”

Our streaming guild had fallen apart a long time ago.

Now we couldn’t even get the minimum wage, and the rent had been pressured multiple times.

Life had become quite miserable.

I hung up the WeChat call, bit into a soft-boiled egg angrily, and opened a video app.

After scrolling a few times, I was left dumbfounded.

---

In the video, a man in a white coat was standing in front of a hospital bed, calmly operating something.

His profile was very cold.

With deep-set eyes, a high nose, and most importantly, he wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

I stared for a while, confirming that it was my ex, Gu Yongge.

The person who posted the video had a hidden camera perspective, and the caption read: “I met a super handsome guy in the emergency room today, so gentle.”
