The middle-aged couple take a look at him, then just in mere second they already change their attitude like a chameleon. Wow, acting genius we have here, thought Jiayi as he walk toward the bed.
But what with that disappointment he seen in their eyes right at the moment he walked out of the toilet. Injured yes, but he definitely is living and breathing.
"Ah Jiayi, we are so worried about you, but now it seems you're not injured that badly yeah," instead of the man, it's the middle age woman, wearing what might be trendy among the middle-aged aunt now a day. But her makeup sure remind him of 90's drama actress, with bright lipstick and colourful eye shadow. Does this aunt come to visit injured nephew or interrupt in the middle of mahjong session by his husband. But does middle age woman now a day still play mahjong ? Maybe playing some sweet related games or scrolling the net just like any modern human now a day.
Well here come the zero acting skill he accumulates in two life, and Jiayi try his best to act like the original owner. He is fortunate that the original owner memory retained upon his dwelling inside this body. Jiayi would not know how concerning it would be if he cannot remember anything. The best scenario is to pretend amnesiacs. Anyway, he already has a head injury isn't it.
"Aunt Ying don't you see Jiayi's head is wrap like a zongzi. Of course it is bad, luckily our Jiayi is fortunate, that it is only his head is injured and its only err what the doctor said ya physical trauma no internal bleeding whatsoever."
Bravo, Wang Churan ! Jiayi give his definite 'best friend' from now on a mental applause. Why he never has such a friend in his old self.
The middle-aged woman name Ying, full name Ying Haoran, look askew at the chubby teenager and lost her pretentious smile. She look annoyed truth to be told. Maybe it is true she was interrupting on the middle of whatever fun session she was in before dragged to the hospital by her husband.
"I am fine, aunt, you need not to be worried," Jiayi take this moment to speak. His eyes does not leave the couple ever since he walk out from the toilet. It is just interesting to see miniscule change of their face expressions in every lingering seconds.
"Are they that disappointed I am not badly injured ?" Jiayi wondered in his mind. Or perhaps they even hope something bad happened to him ! But why, it is not that his parent or grandfather left him a massive fortune worth fighting over. Its only just a house and money enough for his expense until he reach adulthood if he spends it carefully.
"Ha ha don't mind your aunt Jiayi, we just concerned about your wellbeing. We try to come as soon as possible after hearing you are in the hospital," Cheng Yuze said this with a booming laugh not necessarily proper inside the hospital. Luckily he is the only occupant in this room or else they might be receiving a glared and shushed from nurse on duty.
"So Jiayi, how long would you be hospitalised ? Your head injury seems does not seems that bad."
"The doctor said Jiayi would need to be hospitalised at least 3 more days so they can observe his injury and to ensure no other problems occur," Wang Churan once again answering for him. Based on his tone, he surely does not have good feelings toward this couple and it is obviously shown on his young face. It makes Jiayi almost laughing with his lack of tact.
"Uhh 3 more days ? But how about the hospital fees, not to mention you even stay in a private room. How can you afford it ?" Aunt Ying wonder aloud while her eyes wondering around the room.
"Yeah Jiayi, how could you stay inside such an expensive room. Who would going to paid it for you, even your treatment must be costly, " when Cheng Yuze speak about this, he seems bothered and a little bit reluctant.
Jiayi only watching the couple speak back in forth with one another. No hint of concern for their so-called nephew but bother for his hospital fee instead. No wonder original owner felt apprehensive toward the couple, their word and action is so contradictory.
"Why Uncle do you worry about me ? Ohh I don't know anything about my hospitalisations. I already be in here when I wake up."
Listening to Jiayi's word, the concerned in the couple face deepened. No, not exactly concern. Its more like exasperation and though Cheng Yuze is much more subtle, his wife on the other hand seems not mind showing her displeasure with the notion that they might need to pay the hospital fee of this so call nephew.
What a contrast with the caring and thoughtful attitude they tried to show him after his grandfather passed away. Though he wonder what make them acted so toward him cause this uncle and aunt is not anyway poor. His uncle watch alone can cover 10 of injured patients like him. He know that brand like at the back of his hand. Working in high end luxury industry does come with its perk and he owns extensive knowledge in almost every luxurious brand in existence. That watch definitely not fake just by looking the exquisite detailing.
The conversation inside the room come at halt when the door is knocked, and someone open it. Looking at the white coat he is wearing, this man must be his attending doctor. A nurse follows the tall middle-aged doctor that spot a benevolent smile on his face when he take a look at Jiayi.
"Hello Doctor Shen, see Jiayi already waking up, come and take a look at him. Does his head injury is really ok ?" Wang Churan truly a definition of outgoing and caring friend. It is such a blessing to have someone honestly care and concern about you.
"Young man, I am come to do so, don't worry earlier observation and result of scan show now internal injury. Its more of physical trauma. Anyway, you must be Cheng Jiayi guardian, hello I am doctor Shen."
"Doctor if his injury is not that serious, can he discharge early. We can treat him better at home," Jiayi's uncle remark cause the seems nice and kind doctor frown. He turn over to the young nurse beside him that show him something and he take a glance at it before nodding with a smile.
"Isn't the Yang family already paid all of the expense of this patient. They said this the least they can do after saving their youngest child," Doctor Shen explanation definitely cause a massive change in both Cheng Yuze and Ying Haoran face.
"The Yang family as that Yang family !" Cheng Jiayi is a bit surprise with his aunt sudden and abrupt exclamation.
What Yang family, like those Yang family warrior in the history, they sure are famous think Cheng Jiayi bemusedly. Or maybe this Yang family is so affluent in this town he is currently reside. Anyway, this might be the family of the child that he selflessly save. Oh not him, but the original Cheng Jiayi.
"Oh, so we need not to paid anything ahh ok then it's alright," this is what Cheng Yuze said. His wife glanced at him and jabbed his stomach with his thin arm. Its not a gentle loving type of jab, mind you.
"Its the Yang," she try to be seen subtle but lost all the effort with that not so low whisper of her.
"What Yang ?" ask Cheng Yuze with a frown. His demeanour take a turn due to the fact he need not pay anything while his wife definitely shock about the Yang family involvement. Doctor Shen on the other hand does not bother with the couple when its clear they do not care about his patients' condition all that much. He continue with his task observing and methodically do his routine check up to assess Jiayi's injury.
"Do you feel painful on your head when waking up before ?"
"A little bit but not that much."
"Does you feel headache as well, is their any other place on your body that you feel painful ?"
"No headache and I do not feel pain anyway in my body aside my head. But my body does feel ache when I walk to the toilet before."
"Oh, you can already walk by your own, that is good. But don't push yourself too hard young man. You shall have good rest and we'll ensure everything is fine after further observation and examination. The Yang family want you you to have full health assessment and we'll going to comply with it, so you need not to be worried much."
Cheng Jiayi always like kind and nice person with caring soft-spoken voice such as Doctor Shen. Thus, he only nod his head with compliance. Wang Churan by his side also smile happily, much happier than what his suppose uncle and aunt should feel.
What a drag, think Cheng Jiayi. The novel surely exaggerated with their transmigrate theme. Get into fantasy setting with handsome male lead or beautiful female lead as well as golden finger that can defeat any enemy and obliterate obstacles. But he, waking up as a teenager, orphan teenager, an injured orphan teenager on a hospital bed. Fortunately, it's a premium hospital bed.
And Jiayi miss his squishy TomTom. Oh," that silly cat must be missing his good daddy. Seriously maybe he should check on the detail of his old self later. Thinking about this something suddenly comes into his mind.
"Ah Churan, my phone, is it with you ?"
Hearing this question Wang Churan face change a bit and then shaking his head. He does not speak a word but taking something out from the drawer of bedside table. Seeing the conditions of the phone, Cheng Jiayi could only sigh. Its turn out to be broken.
"Its ok Jiayi, I can give you my second phone. I don't use it much." Wang Churan sure a kind boy, think Jiayi compared to his aunt and uncle that now listened to Doctor Shen explanation about his conditions. They don't seem all that concern, so why bother visiting him. They are not that closer anyway.
Before Jiayi can further contemplate on this matter, there is someone knocking the door again and soon later open it. Everyone eyes turn towards the person, oh not one but its a pair of tall and short persons. The short one sport a bubbly nature with bright eyes and cute smile that would make any ladies out there swoon with his cuteness.
Meanwhile there is tall person who is standing aloofly beside the short, cute person.
"Oh !" Cheng Jiayi could not help but let out a surprise remarks. Isn't this being his favourite actor with stiff acting yet with handsome appearance that audience practically blind by his good look and forget all about his acting prowess or non-existence of it.
"OMG its stiff acting god !"
