Peeking through the crack of the door, Zhou Kexin felt jealous. Hua Lingwei was taking advantage of the situation, but not at her expense. Wasn't this deliberately targeting her?
"Ahem..." Zhou Kexin coughed lightly, signaling Hua Lingwei to stop.
"Ah—pervert!" Hua Lingwei screamed, swatting Chen Haoxuan's hand away from her chest. She then stood up and ran out of Chen Haoxuan's room.
Back in Zhou Kexin's room, Hua Lingwei's face was flushed as she said, "He—he isn't impotent."
"I told you it was impossible! Look at you now! You got groped, and if this gets out, good luck finding a husband," Zhou Kexin joked.
"Hmph, if I can't get married, I'll just make your Chen Haoxuan take responsibility. After all, he was the one who grabbed my chest," Hua Lingwei replied with a laugh.
"When did you become so shameless?"
"You're no better; you were so shameless that you ended up in someone else's bed. Aren't you embarrassed?"
"Oh! You dare say that to me? Just wait until I tickle you!" Zhou Kexin said as they started playfully wrestling on the bed. If any boys were present, they would surely be nosebleeding. While joking around, several buttons on their shirts had come undone, revealing more than intended.
In the morning, Chen Yina had also cooked something for Chen Haoxuan—lean meat porridge—which he found delicious. He ate three big bowls before feeling satisfied. After seeing that Chen Haoxuan had finished eating, Chen Yina left for school.
Once Chen Yina left, Hua Lingwei also departed, leaving Chen Haoxuan and Zhou Kexin alone in the house. Chen Haoxuan got out of bed and slowly walked around the living room while Zhou Kexin hid in her room, too shy to face him and still embarrassed about sleeping together the night before.
The Deluxe Ward was quite different; it felt just like home with rooms, a bathroom, a living room, a TV, a sofa—everything one could need. Chen Haoxuan grabbed an apple from the coffee table and wiped it with a napkin before taking a bite. He noticed a TV in front of him and realized that after all this time in this century, he hadn't watched television yet! He stood up and walked over to the TV.
"How do you turn on a television in this era?" Chen Haoxuan muttered to himself as he looked at the TV, unable to find the switch. The televisions in Future Century were all touch-controlled, and he had never heard of how modern TVs worked.
Feeling bored in the house, Chen Haoxuan had no choice but to seek out that female pervert who had barged into his room yesterday. He opened Zhou Kexin's door, and a piercing scream immediately echoed from inside: "Ah—!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't know you were changing!" Chen Haoxuan quickly shut the door, recalling Zhou Kexin's beautiful figure, and couldn't help but say, "So beautiful."
"Chen Haoxuan." Suddenly, Zhou Kexin's angry voice came from behind him.
Chen Haoxuan turned around to see Zhou Kexin glaring at him. He awkwardly chuckled, "Hehe... you called me!"
"Why did you just peek at me changing? Speak up—or I'll report you for attempting to assault me," Zhou Kexin huffed angrily.
Chen Haoxuan hurriedly waved his hands in explanation. "It was a misunderstanding! I really didn't mean to peek at you changing. I wanted to ask you how to turn on the TV, and I—heh heh... didn't expect to see your beautiful side."
"You—you're so clueless! Chen Haoxuan, use your brain for once! You can't even lie properly. You don't know how to turn on a TV unless you're an alien. Hmph." Zhou Kexin was dissatisfied with Chen Haoxuan's excuse and scolded him.
"I really haven't used any TV other than touch-controlled ones," Chen Haoxuan explained.
"I don't care! You saw my body, so I want compensation," Zhou Kexin said seriously, clearly trying to take advantage of the situation.
Chen Haoxuan shrugged and replied lightly, "You slept with me for a night yesterday; today I took a glance at your body. We're even."
"You—you're the most annoying guy I've ever met! I hate you!" Zhou Kexin sat on the sofa, turning her head away. She seemed genuinely angry. She was really upset with Chen Haoxuan for being so oblivious! Couldn't he say something nice?
The two of them were stuck in the living room until a nurse from the hospital arrived to check on Chen Haoxuan and Zhou Kexin before leaving. As the nurse was about to go, Chen Haoxuan asked her to teach him how to turn on the television, which turned out to be operated by a remote control.
When he turned on the TV, it happened to be playing footage from the day before when Chen Haoxuan saved Zhou Kexin. Hearing the host's introduction, Zhou Kexin couldn't help but turn her head to look at the screen. She hadn't seen how Chen Haoxuan had disappeared that day, but now she was witnessing it. She saw Chen Haoxuan push her toward an Empty Bottle floating on the river while he himself remained motionless, slowly being submerged by the water. The scene was both touching and cruel, as the person saving her was gradually being drowned, and in that brief moment of submersion, he showed no struggle.
This video was thanks to a girl who loved filming; she had originally intended to capture the rushing river but ended up recording such an emotional scene. After returning home that day, she uploaded the video online, and to her surprise, it quickly gained views—millions of clicks… Soon, nearly all evening news programs were reporting on Chen Haoxuan's heroic act, and thus the world learned about the handsome Lei Feng-like figure from New City University.
Everyone believed that Chen Haoxuan had died, and many girls quietly cried in front of their televisions. His previous photos aired on screen—handsome, sunny, and simply a beautiful young man. People around the world felt that Chen Haoxuan's departure was a great loss.
Seeing himself saving someone on TV and those girls crying for him made Chen Haoxuan want to shout to the world that he was not dead.
Meanwhile, Chen Yina had just gone to class at New City University. She felt conflicted today; she didn't understand why everyone who saw her said, "Chen Yina, take care; you need to be strong." Confused, she wondered what they meant by "take care." No one in her family had died; why were they saying this to her?
When she returned to class and heard her teacher speaking about Chen Haoxuan's selfless act of saving someone, he then asked the entire class to observe three minutes of silence in respect for him. Other classrooms were similar; the first thing they did in class was talk about Chen Haoxuan.
Once Chen Yina figured out what was happening, she couldn't help but burst into laughter. She thought about how her Brother Xuan would react if he knew that all the teachers and students in school were observing three minutes of silence for him.
