Chapter 1357: Not Getting Sister's Care

Qin Yiyan considerately helped Liu Xin'ai answer the phone.

He then held the phone to her ear so she could eat while chatting.

At the very beginning, Liu Xin'ai's attitude was very calm.

But after only a few sentences, she couldn't care about the grease on her fingers anymore; she grabbed the phone and asked nervously, "How are you perfectly fine, yet suddenly sick? Okay, I understand, I'll go back right now!"

After hanging up, Liu Xin'ai realized she had made the phone all dirty.

Qin Yiyan didn't mind; he took a wet wipe to help her clean it and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Liu Qingze has a stomachache, and it's quite serious. I need to go back and check on him!"

Qin Yiyan had already wiped the phone clean.

Hearing Liu Xin'ai's decision, he looked up, his tone calm but refusing to be denied: "Then I will accompany you."

Liu Xin'ai didn't think much of it and agreed; after tidying up a bit, she returned to the Liu Family with Qin Yiyan.

At this moment, Liu Qingze was curled up on the bed like a shrimp.

Discovering that Liu Xin'ai had entered, he even rolled from side to side, his face full of pain.

Seeing this, Liu Xin'ai's brows furrowed tightly.

Walking quickly to Liu Qingze's bedside, she asked busily, "Why does it hurt so much? Have you taken medicine?"

Liu Qingze lifted his head weakly.

Only to discover that there was still a tail following behind Liu Xin'ai!

This discovery caused a flash of impatience to cross Liu Qingze's eyes.

But the next second, he couldn't care about Qin Yiyan anymore and responded very weakly, "I've already taken some."

"You've taken medicine and it's still like this? Then we have to go to the Hospital."

Go to the Hospital?

That absolutely won't do!

Liu Qingze's body stiffened for a moment, then he spoke weakly: "That isn't some Spirit Elixir that works the moment you take it; let's wait another ten minutes and see."

After hearing this, Qin Yiyan said with a half-smile: "You can even accurately estimate when the medicine will take effect? It seems you also have the potential to be a Doctor."

Qin Yiyan was not praising Liu Qingze, but rather giving him a warning and a knock on the head.

How could Liu Qingze not hear it?

He cursed in his heart, then said impatiently, "I take it often, so I've figured out the pattern, okay!"

Liu Xin'ai sensed something was wrong: "You take it often?"

Uh...

Realizing he had let something slip, Liu Qingze changed his words: "I mean occasionally, like once a month or every half month."

This answer did not make Liu Xin'ai relax her expression.

She frowned and shook her head, her eyes full of worry: "You're so young and you have to rely on stomach medicine to get by; you really don't take your own body seriously! By the way, there should be a stethoscope in the house, bring it here."

The second half of the sentence was said by Liu Xin'ai to the servant.

But Liu Qingze swallowed involuntarily: "Sister, what are you doing?"

"Of course, I'm examining you!"

"But... didn't you lose your memory? Your skills definitely aren't as good as before, I don't trust you!"

Liu Qingze thought that because Liu Xin'ai had lost her memory, she had also lost her ability to practice medicine, which is why he dared to fake being sick in front of her.

If Liu Xin'ai still remembered...

Wouldn't he be exposed on the spot!?

Liu Qingze was very nervous, his brain spinning rapidly as he thought about what to do to refuse Liu Xin'ai's good intentions.

Qin Yiyan had been staring at Liu Qingze the whole time.

Naturally, he didn't miss the nervousness in his eyes.

This made him show an intrigued expression.

Afterward, Qin Yiyan turned his head to look at Liu Xin'ai and suggested: "Since Qingze doesn't trust you, don't force it. I'll have a family Doctor come over."

After speaking, Qin Yiyan explained to the stiff-faced Liu Qingze: "Don't worry, the Qin Family's family Doctor is a very famous Doctor and will never misdiagnose you."

Won't misdiagnose?

That's the most fatal part!

If Liu Xin'ai examined him, there was only a possibility of being discovered faking illness.

But if the family Doctor came... that would be a one-hundred-percent exposure!

Liu Qingze knew the difference, so he only hesitated for a moment before biting the bullet and saying: "Let my sister look!"

This brat, she was examining him, yet he was acting like he was being wronged!

Liu Xin'ai felt stifled.

But considering he was "sick," Liu Xin'ai didn't hold it against him.

Once the servant brought the stethoscope, she listened here and pressed there.

And the more she examined him, the more serious her expression became.

It even made Liu Qingze feel guilty!

He hurriedly cast his gaze to the side.

But as luck would have it, he happened to meet Qin Yiyan's inquisitive gaze head-on...

Even more fatal!

Liu Qingze simply closed his eyes, choosing to ignore what he couldn't see.

With his eyes closed like this, Liu Qingze actually calmed down a little.

Having found the feeling of feigning illness, he began to groan: "It must be because I haven't been eating on time lately, which triggered a stomach ailment."

Liu Xin'ai had already finished the examination on her side.

But she did not explain the cause of the illness, only lowering her eyes to say: "Since you know the reason, why can't you still eat properly? You aren't a child anymore."

"It's just that work has been too busy, and there's no one at home to supervise me."

Liu Qingze quietly lifted his eyelids and stole a glance at Liu Xin'ai.

Her expression was very calm, and no emotional changes could be seen.

So... does this mean she hasn't discovered he is feigning illness?

Liu Qingze felt this possibility was very high.

Since she hadn't discovered it...

Then things would be easy to handle!

Liu Qingze raised an eyebrow and began to play the victim: "Sigh, to have an older sister but not receive her care, I am so miserable!"

"Qingze..."

"Sister, you don't need to explain. I can understand that you have amnesia now and aren't considering things comprehensively, so I'm not accusing you of only caring about your own happiness while ignoring your younger brother's life or death; it's just that I'm currently sick and a bit sensitive, so please don't mind."

Liu Qingze was saying for people not to mind.

But in reality?

Every word was accusing Liu Xin'ai!

Yet these accusations were ones Liu Xin'ai could not refute.

Because as an older sister... she had indeed been negligent.

Liu Xin'ai sighed softly, then said: "It was my oversight before; I will spend more effort on you in the future."

Liu Qingze had been waiting for this very sentence!

His eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth to make a request.

But before he could, Qin Yiyan spoke up gloomily: "Xin'ai isn't ignoring you on purpose; you know her situation—she needs to rest quietly and keep her mood calm."

As Qin Yiyan spoke, he cast a deep glance at Liu Qingze.

He was reminding Liu Qingze to stop while he was ahead and not cause trouble that would make Liu Xin'ai worry!

Liu Qingze, however, did not take his warning to heart.

Raising his eyebrows, he said sneakily: "My request isn't much; just set aside a little bit of the time you spend being lovey-dovey."

"Lovey-dovey? How much time do we actually spend being intimate, and how much time does your sister spend reading or in the Laboratory? If you really mind, you should be the one to control Xin'ai's study time!"

"You are together every day, why aren't you the one controlling it?"

"Why would I control it? As long as Xin'ai is happy, I support all her choices!"

"Is that so? Then Sister, come back and live for a few days to supervise me eating!"

Liu Qingze finally stated his main point.

And then he also realized...

He was still feigning illness, so how could he shout so loudly?

Immediately, Liu Qingze hurriedly coughed twice, then clutched his stomach and muttered: "Getting angry made my stomach hurt even more! Oh my!"

Jiang Baobao looked at Li Beijue, a flash of complexity crossing her eyes.
