As the saying goes, "A healer's heart is that of a parent," perhaps in today's society, there are few who can achieve this, but Chu Shiyao is definitely one of them. Her work ethic and dedication are impeccable.

Her job is a nurse, and a nurse's duty is to take care of patients, let alone that Chu Ge is her friend, so what she is doing now is completely justified and there is no reason for her to feel any mental burden.

Although Chu Ge felt uncomfortable at the moment, he still thought this wasn't right. He sighed, "Yaoyao, you better find a guy for this."

"Brother Chu, you're in such a rush, just forget about that stuff. You could've finished by now."

Chu Shiyao said this and thought the same, after all, this is a hospital, and don't the male obstetricians here face more awkward situations than her every day? Why is Chu Ge being so fussy?

Just as Chu Shiyao was thinking this, she heard Chu Ge's voice again, "Uh... let's forget it, shall we? Let's think of another way?"

"Another way? What can there be now?"

"Well, eh, do you have tweezers? Uh... chopsticks would work too."

Chu Shiyao was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded, "Oh, oh, oh, I do have them."

As she spoke, she immediately took a pair of tweezers out of her nurse's uniform pocket. Although the tweezers weren't very big, they weren't too small either. Using tweezers to solve the problem now was definitely better than using her hands.

With the tweezers in hand, Chu Shiyao was determined, feeling a bit of panic, even blaming herself for being dirty-minded. After all, she was a nurse; how could her thoughts be so impure?

Furthermore, look at Chu Ge; he's already suffering but still considering her. Truly, he is a good person.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Shiyao stretched out the tweezers.

"Sis, uh, be careful with that."

Chu Ge's eye twitched as he reminded her, adjusting the angle of the tweezers with his hand. With their cooperation, the tweezers in Chu Shiyao's hand finally found the right spot.

At this moment, Chu Shiyao was completely focused, because she knew she was acting as a nurse, doing only her basic duties. Besides, she always avoided looking directly, and there was no physical contact between her and Chu Ge, so there was no need for any embarrassment.

"Shh, shh!"

To ease Chu Ge's tension, Chu Shiyao made the same whistling sound adults use when coaxing children to pee.

Hearing this sound, Chu Ge felt a wave of helplessness and amusement in his heart. He was over twenty years old, and here Chu Shiyao was whistling like coaxing a child.

If circumstances hadn't conspired this way, he would never have imagined he'd need someone to help him with such a matter.

As he relaxed a bit, finally, he was able to relieve himself.

"Ahhh..."

At last, Chu Ge sighed with relief. The issue that had troubled him all morning was finally resolved.

Chu Shiyao also sighed in relief. Although the process was a bit bumpy, the result was good in the end.

With the problem resolved, the two of them left the restroom. Chu Ge sat back on the bed, and Chu Shiyao sat on the chair opposite him.

The two of them didn't speak for a while. Even though neither of them was particularly introverted, and during Chu Shiyao's assistance, their bodies didn't touch, nor did they focus on anything else, they hadn't known each other for very long, so after it passed, it was still inevitably awkward.

"Uh..." After a while, both of them raised their heads and spoke at the same time, meeting eyes.

In the quiet hospital room, there was finally a bit of noise, and the awkward atmosphere was slightly alleviated. They both smiled. Chu Ge said, "You go first."

Chu Shiyao nodded, "Uh, Brother Chu, are you... feeling better now?"

"Uh... much better. Thank you, really, I couldn't have done it without you," Chu Ge paused, his smile carrying more apology, "and... sorry about that."

Chu Shiyao shook her head, "Brother Chu, there's no need to say that. Don't forget, I'm a nurse. Why are you apologizing and thanking me? It really wasn't anything."

Usually, Chu Ge is quite the slick talker, but after hearing Chu Shiyao say that, he genuinely didn't know what to say right then. If not thank, nor apologize, what should he say?

Should he just sit there staring blankly at Chu Shiyao?

"Brother Chu, you really shouldn't feel embarrassed, isn't this a special situation? I'm not that pretentious, it's not like you just met me today. You should know me by now, I'm pretty easy-going, haha..."

Chu Shiyao said another sentence and smiled brightly at Chu Ge.

The awkwardness that filled the air eased a bit, and Chu Ge nodded.

"Yeah, you are indeed quite easy-going usually, but I've been a bit sensitive. I still remember the first day I saw you, you were downstairs scolding those moving company guys. I have to say, your scolding was quite refreshing and unique."

"They deserved the scolding, but unfortunately, it was all in vain as they still left. If it wasn't for you, I would've been at my wit's end with all the moving stuff."

"Live and learn. Next time you move, remember to pay the moving company only after they've finished their work."

"Hmm... huh?" Chu Shiyao first nodded, then shook her head, looking at Chu Ge with a somewhat speechless expression, "Brother Chu, do you happen to dislike me? I did just help you, after all."

Chu Ge was a bit confused and blinked, "No, why would I dislike you? Why are you suddenly bringing this up out of nowhere?"

Chu Shiyao pouted, "We've only been neighbors for a few days, and you're already talking about me moving next time. Seems like you're not keen on being neighbors and can't wait for me to move out."

Chu Ge broke into a sweat, quickly explaining, "I didn't mean it like that at all! I was just saying if you move again, you shouldn't do it like this time. Your imagination is running wild. How did you even come up with that?"

Chu Shiyao giggled and playfully stuck out her tongue, "So, according to what you say, you're actually happy to have me as a neighbor?"

Chu Ge nodded without hesitation, "Of course, I'm happy. You're a nurse, after all. If I ever feel under the weather, I can call you to help me with an IV. Where else could I find such convenience, right?"

Chu Shiyao rolled her eyes, "Really, Brother Chu, is that all I'm good for in your eyes? Besides giving you an injection, is there nothing else?"

Chu Ge immediately shook his head, "Of course not."

Chu Shiyao asked, "Then what else is there?"

"There's plenty more," Chu Ge thought for a moment and smiled, "like coming over to have a meal at my place?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Shiyao laughed again and gave Chu Ge a light glare, "Brother Chu, what kind of talk is that? That's not how you tease someone. We were talking about how it's beneficial for you having me as a neighbor, and now you're talking about me coming over to eat. How is that beneficial for you?"

Chu Ge nodded as if it were obvious, "Hey, believe it or not, you being able to come over for meals actually is a good thing for me."

Seeing Chu Ge's serious expression, Chu Shiyao was taken aback. Although she still suspected he was joking, since Chu Ge was so earnest, she decided to play along and continue the conversation, "Alright, Brother Chu, stop keeping me in suspense. What do you mean by that? How is me coming over to eat beneficial for you?"

Meeting Chu Shiyao's curious gaze, Chu Ge chuckled, "You want to know?"

Seeing Chu Ge intentionally prolonging her curiosity, Chu Shiyao felt a twinge of frustration. Isn't it obvious she wants to know? Why else would she ask? Her curious and serious look should be enough to convey her interest, shouldn't it?

"Brother Chu, don't be like this. Of course, I want to know. Stop teasing me, why are you saying this? Just tell me!"

Chu Ge laughed heartily, "Okay, since you're sincerely asking, I'll mercifully tell you. For the sake of world peace, for the..."

Chu Shiyao was genuinely annoyed, "Brother Chu, if you don't say it, I'm leaving."

Chu Ge grinned, "Alright, I'll tell you."

Chu Shiyao huffed, "Then hurry up and say it!"

"Actually, you see, in life, besides the basic needs of eating and sleeping, there are many needs like a sense of presence and achievement, which are significant spiritual needs."

Although Chu Ge explained quite clearly, and Chu Shiyao had some thoughts about it, she still wanted to hear Chu Ge finish his explanation.

"Hmm, and? What does that have to do with me coming over to eat?"

"Think about it, I don't have many hobbies, but cooking is a big one for me. So, if the meals I cook are positively received, I'd be very happy. That gives me a sense of presence and achievement, making me happy. So, don't you think you coming over to eat is actually a good thing for me?"

Hearing this, Chu Shiyao laughed. What Chu Ge said was close to what she thought but she still felt like she was imposing by going over to his place for meals.

Chu Ge and Chu Shiyao chatted idly in the hospital room. Meanwhile, in another VIP room on the same floor, a perplexed and frustrated murmur was heard.

"What's going on? That beautiful nurse named Chu Shiyao has been out for so long, why isn't she back yet?"
