As a result, his legs went weak, and then everything went black before his eyes, and he lost consciousness.
********
The next day, in the filming crew of "Unexpected Joy," several staff members were whispering among themselves.
What's wrong with me today?
"Shh, Brother Xie is in a bad mood. Although I've never seen him angry, his stern face is really scary."
"Brother Xu too, what time is it? He's still not at the film set. He doesn't seem like the type to act like a diva."
"Didn't you know? Brother Xu is sick, so he took leave. I overheard the director saying it on the phone."
"Oh? Is it serious?"
Just as the person was about to answer, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, turned around, and saw Xie Jianyuan standing right behind him.
He was wearing a black hoodie and trousers, his black hair was slightly unkempt and sticking up, his face was a little pale, and there were faint shadows under his eyes.
There was no smile on his face, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his tone was icy.
You said he's sick?
Several staff members were caught gossiping behind her back, and they quickly nodded in fright, taking advantage of Xie Jianyuan's distraction to try and leave this place of trouble.
Xie Jianyuan stood there in silence for a while, then turned and walked away.
"Jianyuan, where are you going?" His manager called out to him as soon as he saw this.
"Tell the director I'm going to the hospital."
After saying this in a deep voice, he left without looking back.
The journey from the film set to the hospital, which usually takes at least thirty minutes, was shortened by almost half. After arriving at the hospital, Xie Jianyuan called Xu Chun. After a few rings, Xu's mother answered, because Xu Chun's phone was with her.
She hadn't expected Xie Jianyuan to come, but she still gave him the location of the ward and said that she was out buying breakfast for Xu Chun and would be back soon.
Xie Jianyuan responded and then hung up the phone. After exiting the elevator, he walked to the door of the ward.
But when he arrived, he stopped in his tracks, remained silent for a few seconds, and then slowly pushed open the door.
The first thing that came into view was a hospital bed. Xu Chun lay on the bed with her eyes closed, an IV drip in her hand, and she looked to be sleeping soundly.
Xie Jianyuan slowly walked in.

Even in her sleep, Xu Chun's brows were still furrowed, and her face was somewhat pale. Xie Jianyuan lowered his eyes slightly, looking down at the figure on the bed. After an unknown amount of time, he slowly reached out and touched Xu Chun's forehead.
The warm touch on his skin startled Xie Jianyuan for a moment, and he only felt relieved after confirming that the temperature was normal.
Xie Jianyuan pulled up a chair and sat down, casually picking up a magazine from the bedside table and starting to read. He absentmindedly flipped through a few pages, the rustling sound of the pages turning creating a sense of irritation.
Just then, the figure on the bed suddenly moved. Xie Jianyuan watched as Xu Chun unconsciously moved his fingers, and his gaze slowly moved up to his face. Sure enough, he saw Xu Chun slowly open his eyes.
He stared blankly at the ceiling for a while before slowly turning his gaze to Xie Jianyuan. However, his expression remained blank, probably because he had just woken up and his brain couldn't keep up.
After three or four seconds, Xu Chun's eyes gradually cleared. She opened her mouth, only to find that the voice she made was incredibly hoarse.
"... Why are you here?"
Xie Jianyuan slowly revealed a smile, but the smile did not reach his eyes at all.
I came to see you.
Xu Chun stared at his expression, and finally couldn't help but sigh softly, as if she felt a little tired.
"Don't do this."
Xie Jianyuan was silent for a moment after hearing this, then called out in a deep voice, "Brother Chun."
Xu Chun then perked up slightly and forced a smile as she responded.
Xie Jianyuan casually picked up an apple from the bedside table, then peeled it with a knife, his technique being very graceful and skillful.
I couldn't sleep after I got home last night.
His tone was very relaxed. Xu Chun looked at the faint shadows under his eyes and didn't know what to feel.
"I know you must be very shocked," Xie Jianyuan said softly as he peeled fruit, "Because you probably never thought of something like this before."
"Actually, I never thought of it." Xie Jianyuan gave a self-deprecating smile. "That I would be so cowardly one day."
When he kissed Xu Chun yesterday, his heart had never pounded so hard, and the hands he held behind Xu Chun's head were trembling slightly.
After confessing his feelings, he was even afraid to hear Xu Chun's answer, and he fled in a rather disheveled manner.
The inexplicable anger in his heart was mostly directed at himself; he had never imagined that he would one day be afraid of something.
The fruit peel gradually fell off his hand and landed intact in the trash can. Xie Jianyuan handed the apple to Xu Chun and smiled at him.
"Isn't it ridiculous?"
Xu Chun took it and silently shook her head.
Xie Jianyuan slowly lowered his eyelashes, which trembled slightly, and said softly, "So I don't need to rush to hear an answer right now. I hope you can think about it carefully, and it's okay if you don't want to..."
He stopped talking as if he couldn't continue.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and then the door was slowly opened.
"What are you talking about? It sounds so serious."
Xu's mother walked in with a smile, carrying breakfast. Xie Jianyuan stood up and smiled at her.
"Aunt."
Mrs. Xu smiled and nodded in agreement, urging him to sit down quickly. Xie Jianyuan smiled slightly, then politely declined, saying, "No need, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."
Mrs. Xu was taken aback, because she hadn't expected Xie Jianyuan to stay for such a short time, but she didn't insist, only saying that she would see him off.
Xie Jianyuan smiled faintly upon hearing this, "It's alright, Auntie. You should take good care of Brother Chun first. After all, he's a patient and can't be left alone."
