I Only Want You novel Chapter 30

"Elizabeth, is the guy in the radio talking to you?"

Evelyn Wu looked over at Elizabeth Liang somewhat confusedly, but her voice was weak and her face was quite pale.

Elizabeth, who didn't look so well either, was also bewildered. "Is he?"

"I heard him calling your name."

"Maybe you misheard him?" She was an orphan with no family, who would possibly be looking for her through the broadcast? And what, daddy's taking you home? "It's been years since my daddy last took me home..."

"Maybe." Evelyn nodded. "God, Elizabeth, I'm so tired from pooping I feel like I'm dying."

Elizabeth felt embarrassed. "I'm sorry Evelyn, it's all my fault."

There were a lot of leftovers from yesterday, so she brought them all to school and ate them with Evelyn after re-heating. But during the afternoon lectures, both of their stomachs were unfortunately defeated by the leftovers.

The diarrhea made them both convulse and vomit all over the place.

They had no choice but to go to the campus hospital. Seeing that they were about to collapse, the campus doctor immediately put them on drips.

"B*tch shut up," She gave Elizabeth a feeble glare. "It's all the weather's fault okay, it's too hot."

"I'm sorry anyway." Elizabeth felt awfully guilty. She looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already 7:30. She picked up her dead cellphone and sighed, wondering how angry James Lu would be.

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. She pulled up her blanket in frustration and said, "Well, let's just sleep first."

But less than five minutes after Elizabeth had closed her eyes, she heard a rush of footsteps from the corridor. The footsteps got closer and closer until they stopped in front of Elizabeth's bed.

Her eyes opened in confusion then immediately widened in surprise.

Why was James Lu here?

James frowned as he looked at Elizabeth's pale face on the hospital bed. Suppressing his irritation, he asked. "What happened?"

"Um..." She was too embarassed to say.

The campus doctor who accompanied James here began explaining with a smile, "Miss Liang and her friend are suffering from diarrhea caused by food poisoning."

"..." Elizabeth looked helplessly at the ceiling, as her originally pale face immediately turned red.

The doctor continued, "Cooked food is much more easily contaminated under this hot weather, which means it's much easier to get food poisoning. They couldn't stop throwing up when they just came, but the symptoms have relieved now that I've put them on a drip." "I see," James nodded, "please don't let me stop you from your work."

"Okay."

Evelyn watched from behind as the doctor left, then looked over at James who had suddenly appeared near her. She tried her best to not let her eyes burst into hearts from excitement. "Elizabeth, is he... was he looking for you in the radio?"

Elizabeth was still weak from the diarrhea, and she wasn't really listening to the broadcast just now. She still couldn't quite believe that James was standing before her. Was he really looking for her? To make her cook dinner?

"Urn... have you eaten?" Elizabeth pursed her lips. "I probably can't cook today..."

Hearing this, James glared at her menacingly. "Are you serious right now?" Although he was pretty hungry.

"Uh..."

Evelyn looked at the two of them suspiciously. They're being so weird to each other!

As a low-key celebrity stan and lover of hot guys, Evelyn immediately knew who he was. He often showed up in fashion and financial magazines, but she would've never expected to see him in real life. Evelyn was practically over the moon with disbelief!

Interestingly though, he seemed to be acquainted with Elizabeth. Could be possibly the "friend" that Elizabeth was staying with?
