I didn't sleep very well that night.
Even with the items provided by the system, Xiao He still felt sore all over and mentally exhausted when he woke up.
He glanced at the bed next to him.
Everyone else was still asleep, even the assistant was asleep by the bedside.
Xiao He got up quietly, checked on Liu Rulan and Xiao Chen's condition, and then quietly left the ward.
This time, Xiao He did not go to the police to inquire about the case investigation results. Instead, he went to the vicinity of the hospital and ordered himself a bowl of noodles.
To be honest, he didn't eat anything last night except for that glass of lemonade.
Now the boss brings out a steaming bowl of noodles, and the aroma wafts powerfully into Xiao He's nostrils, making his stomach rumble instantly.
A strong feeling of hunger belatedly surged into my brain.
He immediately picked up his chopsticks, ready to start eating.
"Brother Xiao?"
A weak female voice sounded from the side.
Xiao He paused, his hand holding the chopsticks still.
He turned his head and saw two girls sitting at the table next to him.
It was around six in the morning, and the noodle shop wasn't particularly crowded. Apart from Xiao He, there were only two girls at this table and two middle-aged men working the early shift at the other two tables in front of them.
Xiao He nodded directly: "It's me."
It was quite early, and he was only wearing a hat, so it's not surprising that he was recognized.
"Ah, it really is Brother Xiao!"
Xue Yiwei covered her mouth excitedly.
"Brother Xiao, how are you? Were you injured in the car accident?" Dong Nizhen asked excitedly and worriedly from the side.
Xiao He put down his chopsticks: "I'm fine. None of the people in our car were seriously injured, otherwise you wouldn't have seen me eating here."
He also casually asked, "What are you doing here so early?"
Judging from their attire, they don't seem to be sick and queuing up.
“We came to see Brother Xiao!” one of the girls said without hesitation.
Xiao He looked at the two people in front of him with some surprise.
ah?
Look at me?
"Yes, yes! We are all fans of Brother Xiao!"
"Actually, after Brother Xiao's car accident, everyone was very worried about you and discussed coming to the hospital to visit you. However, because Xiao Hei and I both live nearby, we arrived relatively quickly."
Unexpectedly, Xiao He went out to have breakfast by himself and was bumped into by them.
"I see—"
Xiao He was naturally very touched to be genuinely cared for by a group of fans, but the next moment, he frowned slightly and said, "I'm fine. Tell them not to come. We'll be discharged from the hospital this morning, and you might come and find nothing."
Moreover, this is a hospital, mostly filled with patients and their families. If a large group of fans were to wander around the hospital, it would definitely disrupt the normal order.
Although touched by the love of these fans, Xiao He also strongly disliked them disturbing other people's normal work.
"Actually, that's what most people say," Dong Nizhen said, somewhat embarrassed. "Most of the fans didn't come, and Xiao Hei and I only came because we live very close by—"
Fearing that Xiao He might mistake them for irrational obsessive fans, Dong Nizhen quickly added, "We were very well-behaved. We didn't go into the hospital and disturb anyone. We just looked around from the outside and didn't bother anyone else."
Xiao He naturally believed this.
"I believe in you." He smiled. "Would you like an autograph or a photo?"
Xue Yiwei's eyes lit up, and she happily handed over the small notebook: "I need it, I need it! Brother Xiao might not know me, my ID is Little Box."
Xiao He recognized him: "It's you. I have a vague impression of you."
He then picked up a pen and quickly signed Xue Yiwei's name.
Dong Nizhen also came over, looking at Xiao He with an expectant expression: "Brother Xiao, my name is He Xiaohei! Do you remember me?"
Xiao He vaguely remembered: "Is he the one who often posts emojis in my comment section?"
Dong Nizhen nodded excitedly and frantically: "Yes, it's me, it's me."
Xiao He couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
She looks like a very well-behaved little girl, so why are all the emojis she posts being abstract?
Some of the emojis were so abstract that Xiao He once thought the person behind the ID was a burly man picking his feet.
Meeting Xiao He's strange gaze, Dong Nizhen suddenly remembered the abstract emojis she had sent in the comments section, and she froze instantly—
Ahhhh, I can't believe my idol actually remembered her ID!!!
Ugh, I knew she shouldn't have posted those abstract emojis in the comments to attract Xiao Ge's attention!
Who knew Brother Xiao actually remembered it?!
If time could be turned back, she would absolutely never have played abstract games in Xiao Ge's comment section!
Waaaaah—
Dong Nizhen silently shed tears, but maintained a smile on her face as she handed over the postcard she had prepared in advance: "Brother Xiao, please sign it!"
Xiao He quickly signed it for her.
After signing, Xiao He chatted with them for a while. Hearing the two girls say that many people in their fan group were so worried that they couldn't sleep all night, Xiao He thought about it and had an idea.
"Then I'll start a live stream temporarily."
Xiao He acted immediately, logging into his Musical Notes account to start a live stream.
Xue Yiwei's eyes lit up: "Ah, Brother Xiao, are you going to do a live stream?"
Xiao He nodded as he started the live stream: "Yeah, I'll just chat with you all."
He wanted to do a live stream right now! There were fewer people around, and most people were still in bed. He wouldn't attract too many fans to watch him live from the noodle shop. After the live stream, he would announce that he and his manager had been discharged from the hospital, so that if other fans woke up and checked their phones, they wouldn't have to make a wasted trip to the hospital to see him.
Yes, that's a very effective way to achieve multiple goals!
However, Xiao He was so hungry that after borrowing a phone stand from Xue Yiwei, he decisively picked up his chopsticks and took a bite.
Wow, that's so touching! We can finally eat!
Driven by extreme hunger, Xiao He suddenly became ruthless, forgetting all sentimentality, and began to devour himself like a hungry wolf.
Completely unaware that the number of viewers watching the live stream on the phone next to them was skyrocketing.
Even Dong Nizhen and Xue Yiwei, who were standing nearby, were secretly using their phones to frantically call people in the group chat, or directly making Didi calls to wake them up to watch the live stream.
After Xiao He finished showing off a bowl of noodles, the live stream had already attracted over 30,000 viewers.
Xiao He: ...
Seeing the barrage of comments, Xiao He was completely bewildered.
He really didn't expect that so many people would still be watching at this hour!
Isn't it said that young people are usually sleeping at this time?
However, what Xiao He didn't know was that while many people are indeed nocturnal, if they were still awake at this hour in the morning, it mostly meant only one thing—
They persevered.
【Victory for the night owls! Xiao Ge is completely unharmed!】
【That's great, I'm relieved to see that Brother Xiao is alright.】
【Ah, I'm so happy! Brother Xiao, I'm so glad you're alright!】
【Haha, I really don't understand. His fans are all worried about him, but here he is, eating and drinking like a king. He seems so cold-blooded.】
【Hey, you trolls upstairs, tone it down, your faces are practically plastered on the screen.】
