Xiao Lang’s eyes were bloodshot, and there were dark circles under them.
He didn’t look like someone faking an illness.
He nodded, "Yes, last night my eyes suddenly went blind, so I came to find you today."
Li Mingxi was a bit angry upon hearing that.
"Why didn’t you find me last night?!"
"It was too late, I didn’t want to disturb you."
"Is your eyesight more important, or my rest more important?!"
Xiao Lang smiled faintly, "Of course, your rest is more important."
"..." Li Mingxi crouched down, expressionless, closely examining his eyes, "How long was the blindness?"
"About ten seconds or so."
"Why haven’t you been getting enough rest?"
"Feeling a bit unwell."
Li Mingxi stood up, "Come with me for a check-up."
Xiao Lang got up and obediently followed her.
Li Mingxi took him to a medical room, asked him to lie on the bed, and then picked up a flashlight to examine his eyes.
Xiao Lang was very cooperative; Li Mingxi performed a series of tests but found nothing wrong.
"Strange, your eyes should be fine. Your body too."
Xiao Lang agreed, "Maybe there’s nothing wrong. I’m probably just too tired lately."
"You can’t be careless!" Li Mingxi wasn’t relaxing at all, "I’ll conduct further tests for you, follow me."
After another series of tests, she still found no issues with his eyes.
The only finding was that he surely hadn’t slept last night.
Xiao Lang was optimistic, "There should be no problem. I might have just overreacted."
"If you ever experience temporary blindness again, be sure to find me immediately." Li Mingxi advised with concern.
"Okay. By the way, can I borrow a room here to rest for a bit?"
Li Mingxi saw his poor complexion and agreed.
She knew Xiao Lang didn’t like hospitals and hated the hospital smell.
She directly let him rest in the resting room inside her office.
The resting room had a very large leather sofa, almost as big as a bed, along with a TV and a bathroom.
Sometimes, Li Mingxi herself would rest in there.
Watching Xiao Lang fall asleep after lying down, Li Mingxi gently closed the door and went back to work.
She searched everywhere for information, trying to understand Xiao Lang’s condition, but after a whole morning of looking through materials, she couldn’t find an answer.
...
Time quickly reached noon.
Li Mingxi had been so busy with the materials that she forgot to eat and sleep.
Every noon, Li Qian would come to find her, and they would go to the restaurant together to have lunch.
"Knock knock knock—"
Li Mingxi heard the knock and without looking up, said, "Come in."
Li Qian entered with a smile, "Still working hard? It’s time for lunch."
Seeing him, Li Mingxi gave an helpless smile.
Their mothers, the two Mrs. Lis, must have ordered food for them again today.
Just as Li Mingxi was about to say something, she suddenly heard the click of a door opening.
Her expression changed slightly, as she remembered there was a man still lying in the inner resting room.
Oh no, the Titanic just hit an iceberg.
Xiao Lang opened the door and came out, feigning surprise as he asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
Li Qian was genuinely shocked to see Xiao Lang.
He knew there was a resting room inside Li Mingxi’s office.
And he also knew it was Li Mingxi’s private resting space.
So when a man came out from there, he had to question the relationship between the man and Li Mingxi.
Li Mingxi stood up, feeling a headache coming on, "Li Qian, let me introduce you. This is Xiao Lang, my friend and patient."
