Rebirth from the Ashes - Chapter 504

Chapter 504: Fainting From the Pain

When Shen Xi fell, Fu Qingye could not just stand by or dodge her because of his morals and chivalry instilled in him from his upbringing. He felt a familiar feeling washed over him as he reached out to support her.

Shen Xi instinctively supported herself in the elevator when her leg began to hurt suddenly. Little did she know, she could not manage a firm grasp on the handrail. The throbbing pain sapped her strength instantly, and all she could do was watch herself fall.

Fu Qingye lowered his gaze slightly and noticed fine beads of sweat on Shen Xi’s smooth forehead. Her face was visible to him when the sunglasses dropped to the floor. His heart clenched as he looked at her frowning in pain, before calling out her name, “Xixi”.

The moment the pain took over Shen Xi, her mind went blank and her vision blurred. She lifted her head when she felt better momentarily. After taking a clear look at his face, she blacked out and collapsed.

“Xixi!” Fu Qingye called out anxiously and caught her limp body.

The elevator was still moving up.

Fu Qingye knew the production team had a medical doctor with them. He tried to calm himself and bore in mind that Shen Xi would not want anyone to discover her real identity. He took off his coat and covered her entirely.

The moment the elevator stopped.

Fu Qingye dashed out of the elevator and shouted anxiously at the staff, “Doctor! Get the doctor! Stat!”

The staff was taken aback as they watched Mr. Fu the Movie Star losing his cool and rushing crazily from the elevator while yelling for help.

“Get a doctor, quick!” Fu Qingye was anxious, but the courteous upbringing inculcated in him since childhood had him still politely turned to the staff and said, “Please.”

The staff then reacted and hurriedly called the team’s doctor without any more delays as they watched Fu Qingye, the renowned Movie Star, walk to his dorm with a girl in his arms.

At least, it looked like a girl. She looked so tiny in the Movie Star’s arms.

The production team wanted to follow them into the room.

Fu Qingye then turned to them and said, “Only the doctor may enter, please.”

The door then closed with a bang.

Members of the production team exchanged looks and wondered who was the girl in the Movie Star’s arms.

Judging from Fu Qingye’s unusual behavior earlier, it was probably someone whom he cared a lot about.

The doctor arrived soon after. It was a young female doctor. When she saw Fu Qingye’s face, her eyes widened in astonishment and her heart almost raced to her throat. She tried to remain calm while examining Shen Xi but she could not shake the feeling if she was in a dream.

Oh God, did she hit the jackpot? She met Fu Qingye the Movie Star, in the flesh!

“How is she?” asked Fu Qingye. He was entirely focused on Shen Xi with his eyes never leaving her except for the moment he got up to let the doctor enter the room.

“She’s just passed out, there’s nothing wrong with her body and she will wake up soon,” said the doctor. She managed to maintain her medical ethics and professionalism in front of her idol.

As a doctor, it was not difficult for her to examine this, but as for the reason behind the faint, only the patient herself would know.

“Thank you.” Fu Qingye was relieved when he heard Shen Xi was fine.

“She should get a full medical body check-up once she wakes up,” advised the doctor.

“Okay.” Fu Qingye saw Shen Xi’s eyebrows that were furrowed in pain were now smoothen out, and colors had returned to her miserably pale face.

A medical check-up is a must. How could anyone collapse and pass out from sudden pain? There must be something wrong with their health.

Fu Qingye got up and sent the doctor out.

The doctor had been thinking if she should take this opportunity to ask for an autograph and a photo together. However, it was inappropriate for a doctor to do so when the patient’s family was worried about the patient. She suppressed the urge in her heart. Before she left, she looked at Fu Qingye and said, “Brother Ye, I’m a big fan of yours and I’ll always support you!”

After saying that, she ran away at light speed.

“…” Fu Qingye was rendered speechless.

10 minutes later.

Shen Xi woke up with no more pain in her leg as if it had all been just an illusion. However, the agonising pain earlier was too real to be an illusion.

“You’re awake. How do you feel?” Fu Qingye looked at her, concerned.

“I’m fine.” Shen Xi shook her head and replied with a smile, “Could be my blood sugar was low.”

She could not tell anyone how she would experience inexplicable twitches all the time, just like the throbbing pain in her leg earlier.

“Let’s get you a check-up at the hospital. The car is right at the door.” Fu Qingye won’t be fooled by what she said as he knew low blood sugar would not cause that kind of pain.

“I…” Shen Xi paused. She knew he would not give up until she had the check-up at the hospital. “It’s just menstrual cramps,” continued Shen Xi.

Indeed.

Fu Qingye remained silent after hearing that. It was common for females to experience menstrual cramps; many had faced the same.

Fu Qingye let out an embarrassed cough as he was taken aback by Shen Xi’s blunt response, “I’ll get Jing Yu to get you the meds.”

“I have the meds.” Shen Xi never expected she would bump into Fu Qingye, not to mention passing out in front of him. How should she explain the reason she showed up here?

“Oh,” Fu Qingye responded. He still texted Jing Yu to get the meds and brown sugar, which he thought would be needed.

Shen Xi never had any contact with the Fu brothers since she returned from her last visit to Mama Fu. Not even Fu Qingxuan, who had always been bothering her, had contacted her. It was likely he was disciplined by Fu Qingli.

It was the same with Fu Qingye. She was aware that he had arrived in China as he was invited to a couple of talk shows and walked the red carpet at several events. He was also the Hot Search on every tier-1 online platform in the past month. His popularity had even surpassed the hot talent show, National Idol. However, he had not contacted Shen Xi at all, and for this she was relieved.

After a few exchanges, the two seemed to be at a loss for words, and the atmosphere was odd.

Fu Qingye could not think of anything suitable to say but he was uneasy when it was quiet, so he asked, “What brought you here?”

“To see my friends,” Shen Xi gave a clear and concise answer.

Fu Qingye was disappointed with her short and succinct reply, then added, “I’m here to take part in the television show, it has gained so much popularity these days. Do you know the male music composer, Xixi?”

“Yes, he’s incredible.” Shen Xi got up from the bed, put on her shoes, and said, “You must’ve come here discreetly, I’d better leave. It’d be unwise for others to see us together. Scandals aren’t good for you.”

Fu Qingye sighed in his heart. Just as he was about to speak, his cell phone rang. He checked the caller ID and answered the call, “Brother”.
