I sidestepped, terrified of bumping into him.

After all, this handsome guy in the hospital gown was famous at school for his terrible temper.

I heard he got a major demerit last semester because a few guys from another school came to his classroom to hit on the school beauty, Qin Yi.

One of the guys even put his foot on Lu Xiao’s desk.

When Lu Xiao came back, he grabbed a stool on the spot and hurled it right at them.

A few muscular guys from the other school couldn’t even beat Lu Xiao alone.

One of them got his head cracked open, spent half a month in the hospital, and threatened to sue Lu Xiao.

But Lu Xiao’s family was rich, so after a couple of days of fuss, the whole thing quietly blew over.

Still, because the fight was so brutal, the school still gave him a major demerit.

Lu Xiao kept his eyelids drooped, focusing on fumbling with his buttons. He didn’t even spare me a glance as he walked right past me toward the adjacent bed.

That was when it finally clicked.

Lu Xiao! Got! Hemorrhoid surgery?!!

This shocking and juicy piece of news was hard to believe.

I felt both deeply moved and a little surprised.

Moved because such a handsome guy got hemorrhoids at such a young age.

Surprised because, wow, even handsome guys get hemorrhoids.

It’s just like how even the prettiest fairies still have to poop.

I suddenly felt comforted, realizing that God is indeed fair.

Take me, for example. I might not have an exceptionally gorgeous face, but I have a fun soul!

And I don’t have hemorrhoids~ Hehe.

Just as I was planning to make a hasty retreat from the ward, the guy who had just walked past me suddenly turned around and called out to me.

His voice carried a cold, detached, and slightly raspy tone:

“From Hengyang?”

I sidestepped, terrified of bumping into him.

After all, this handsome guy in the hospital gown was notorious at school for having a terrible temper.

I heard that last semester, he got a major disciplinary mark just because a few guys from another school came to his class to hit on the school beauty, Qin Yi,

and one of the guys even put his foot up on Lu Xiao’s desk.

Lu Xiao came back from outside, grabbed a chair, and threw it right at them on the spot.

Those few muscular guys from the other school couldn’t even beat Lu Xiao by himself.

One of them ended up with a broken head, spent half a month in the hospital, and even threatened to sue Lu Xiao.

But Lu Xiao’s family is wealthy, so the whole thing blew over in two days without a peep.

Still, because the fight was so vicious, the school gave him a major disciplinary mark anyway.

Lu Xiao kept his eyes lowered, focusing on his buttons, not even sparing me a glance as he walked right past me toward the bed next to my dad’s.

That was when it hit me.

Lu Xiao! Had! Hemorrhoid surgery?!!

This shocking, explosive fact left me in disbelief.

I felt both sentimental and a little surprised.

Sentimental because a handsome guy had hemorrhoids at such a young age.

Surprised because, well, handsome guys get hemorrhoids too,

just like how even the prettiest little fairy princess has to poop.

I suddenly felt comforted, thinking that God is fair after all.

Just like me—even though I don’t have a stunning face, I have an interesting soul.

And I don’t have hemorrhoids~ Hehe.

Just as I was planning to bolt from the room, the boy who had just walked past me suddenly turned his head and called out to me.

His voice was cold, distant, and slightly raspy:

“From Hengyang (school name)?”
