"You said so yourself, so I'll come over tomorrow."
Hu Jiasheng pretended not to know that she hadn't gone to work at Wang's company.
"I said so. As long as you talk to the company, it'll be fine."
"Of course, I'll talk to them. Didn't you say Wang Pengfei likes me? What request would he refuse?"
"Let's take off the bandage. It's soaked through. Let me see how your wound is."
The gauze was soaked layer after layer with sweat. There was indeed no need to keep it wrapped. Hu Jiasheng let her unwrap it, and upon seeing it, it was a gruesome sight.
Several stitches had come loose in the center of the wound, and the wound gaped open like a red mouth, staring at them. Tang Nannan flinched.
"No, you have to go to the hospital. Otherwise, you won't be able to work."
Hu Jiasheng, afraid of scaring her, covered the wound again with a wet gauze. "But you're here."
"Even with you here, I can't let your hand scar. Let's go to the emergency room. Is it okay if you're not admitted to the hospital?"
Hu Jiasheng was also afraid that if the wound worsened, Tang Nannan would feel even more guilty, so he agreed to go to the hospital.
After a lot of fuss, the two of them came out of the hospital, and it was almost one in the morning.
After returning home and washing up, it was past two in the morning.
However, Tang Nannan was in a good mood and didn't feel tired.
"Mr. Hu, what do you want for breakfast tomorrow? I'll get up and make it for you."
Going to bed so late and having to get up so early, Hu Jiasheng felt genuinely heartbroken for her.
"Let's get up at seven tomorrow. I've never seen the scene of roadside stalls early in the morning. I heard it's quite lively. Let's go and see it together tomorrow."
Tang Nannan was a little surprised. "Don't you dislike eating at roadside stalls?"
"People change. Maybe from now on, I won't have to make breakfast for you anymore."
Tang Nannan slept soundly and got up at seven sharp. She went to the bathroom to wash up with Hu Jiasheng, and then they went to the breakfast street at the entrance of the residential area.
There were stalls selling fried dough sticks, soy milk, and steamed buns, stalls selling various kinds of pancakes, stalls selling pan-fried buns, and stalls selling rice noodles and wontons.
Facing the morning sun and the steaming atmosphere, with the traffic flowing by and hurried passers-by, it was indeed very lively.
To maintain his pretense, Hu Jiasheng ate a few pan-fried buns and drank a cup of soy milk.
Although the taste was good, it was too greasy, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
However, Tang Nannan was quite used to it. Seeing her eat so heartily, like a hamster with her cheeks puffed out, he felt that she was much stronger than him.
If the same situation happened to him, he might have become depressed like his younger brother.
It was strange, but his mental state had improved a lot since he met Tang Nannan.
For so many consecutive days, he hadn't taken any antidepressant medication and hadn't felt anything uncomfortable.
Thus, along with the technician, the three of them worked diligently together and installed all the charging piles in the service area within three days.
With this experience, they would only get faster.
The work at another service area was completed two days ahead of schedule.
At this point, Hu Jiasheng's work in Suzhou was all done, and he was heading back to Nancheng.
As per their previous agreement, Tang Nannan was to treat him to a meal before he left.
The two of them went home, washed up, changed into clean clothes, and on the way to the restaurant, Tang Nannan secretly booked the same flight as him.
All the money she had was spent on this ticket. Now she only had a little over 100 yuan left, enough for dinner.
From now on, when she went to Nancheng, she would have to stick to Hu Jiasheng.
She hoped he would be merciful to the end and not drive her away.
