"Yes, fine. I agree. I'll do everything you say. Can we go to the hospital now?" Jonathan immediately becdocile.
"Okay." Rose dragged him down the building and shoved him into his car before driving to the hospital.
Once they arrived, someone recognized Jonathan. Before Rose even registered him as a patient, a bunch of doctors and nurses surged over and took Jonathan to the emergency room.
Even as he was brought to a hospital room and hooked up to an IV drip, she was still a little dazed.
When she went to settle the hospitalization paperwork, she was told that everything had been sorted out already.

Tmhere," Rose replied.

He was still attached to an IV drip, and the doctor had just finished changing his bandage. After blanking out for a moment, Rose realized she was lying on the hospital bed.
The bed in the VIP hospital room was quite large. Though she was under the blanket, it had molded her form. Everyone could see the way she was splayed out in bed with her legs open wide.

Before leaving, Rose turned around and said to Jonathan, "I didn't kick out of the bed on purpose. You should try to get smore sleep." Jonathan stared at her and openly stated right in front of all the hospital staff in the room, "When did you Kickout of the bed? It's a big bed. There's enough space for both of us." Rose was startled. What did he mean by that? Meanwhile, the doctors and nurses began to survey the two with amused looks.
