Their true feelings revealed: the beastly husbands are working themselves to the bone every night.

Chapter 188 188 Seemingly an Old Friend Returns 4
When Su Mo arrived at the small clinic, there was already a queue outside.

She went into a busy mode as soon as she opened the door. Xiao Jiu and Fu Ying weren't here today, and she was spinning around like a top.

Around ten o'clock, He Yuan and Xuan Qing arrived.

At that time, there were about ten patients in front of them. Although Su Mo was busy, she was methodical and organized.

He Yuan sat on the sofa and made a phone call.

Xuan Qing walked towards Su Mo: "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Su Mo looked up at him and pushed several bags containing medicine with names on them to him: "Please help me distribute these to the patients."

"it is good."

By the time the ten people ahead of He Yuan finished their appointments, it was almost noon.

However, there were fewer people in the clinic at this moment.

Su Mo helped him get his IV drip set up, then treated three or four other patients. She glanced at the time; it was past eleven.

Looking at Xuan Qing, who had been helping her for quite some time, she said somewhat apologetically, "Thank you for your trouble. I'll treat you to lunch."

Xuan Qing smiled and nodded: "Okay."

Su Mo pulled out her phone's contacts and found a number: "Okay, enough for three people, order plenty of food."

Inside the room, He Yuan called Xuan Qing over: "Tell me, I've finished my IV drip these past few days, how are you going to find an excuse to come over? Should I break my other arm to cooperate with you???"

Xuan Qing raised an eyebrow slightly; "It's not impossible."

"You're absolutely shameless!!!"

……

Fu Ying arrived on the third day at noon. As soon as she entered, she saw Xuan Qinghe helping Su Mo dispense medicine.

His friend was sitting inside receiving an IV drip.

Fu Ying quietly walked up to Su Mo and asked, "What's going on? Did you hire him as a helper?"

"They were just helping out."

Fu Ying glanced at Xuan Qing not far away and raised an eyebrow slightly. "You'd better be careful, he definitely has ulterior motives!"

Su Mo glanced at her helplessly: "Go and register those injured people for me!"

After finishing with this group of people, Fu Ying asked Xuan Qing to help carry the lunch boxes.

Before leaving, Su Mo stopped Fu Ying: "I already said I could call and have it delivered, why do you insist on going yourself and asking others to come along? That's not a good idea."

Fu Ying said dismissively, "Oh, he's been helping you for days and you don't feel bad at all, but I can't even ask him to bring me some food? I think he's quite happy to come with me."

"……what ever."

Fu Ying smiled and called Xuan Qing to walk outside.

After leaving the clinic, Fu Ying started chatting casually with Xuan Qing.

When they returned to the clinic, He Yuan's IV drip was finished, and it was time for him to eat.

After finishing their meal, Xuanqing and Heyuan left the small clinic.

Fu Ying walked over and glanced at the medical record: "He Yuan isn't coming tomorrow?"

Su Mo nodded: "That's right, this is the last day."

Fu Ying said meaningfully, "Then starting tomorrow, we'll lose one free helper, which is a real shame."

Su Mo chuckled and shook her head, then walked inside.

Fu Ying stared at her retreating figure and said slowly, "I have a feeling you two will meet again. He's not like those other people."

……

Su Mo didn't take Fu Ying's words to heart. Over the years, she had become accustomed to all sorts of people around her.

I didn't return to 'Yun Mansion' until evening.

The family next door just moved out a few days ago, and now new people have moved in.

When Su Mo came out of the elevator, the workers next to her were busy carrying the bed inside.

Be careful! Avoid bumping or falling!

She was unexpectedly bumped into, and the person apologized to her repeatedly.

Su Mo frowned and said, "It's nothing."

Just as I was about to turn around, I saw someone not far away holding a mobile phone and talking to someone.

Xuan Qing turned around, phone in hand, and saw a familiar figure standing not far away. "Let's talk later."

He hung up the phone and came over: "Dr. Su, what a coincidence."

Su Mo asked suspiciously, "Are you the new neighbor who moved in?"

The man nodded with a faint smile: "Yes, so my next-door neighbor is Dr. Su?"

Su Mo nodded: "What a coincidence."

After a brief farewell, she took out her keys, opened the door, and went inside.

The cat in the room suddenly jumped into her arms, meowing incessantly.

Su Mo patted its head, then picked it up and went to find food.

After a few days of peaceful coexistence, we suddenly met in the park in our neighborhood one day.

Xuanqing looked at the orange cat at her feet and asked, "Is this your cat?"

"Yeah, I haven't been downstairs for several days, so I'll take a walk."

The cat seemed to sense Xuan Qing's presence and became frightened, shrinking at Su Mo's feet and whimpering.

An elderly woman saw Su Mo not far away and immediately greeted her with a smile, even asking her to take a look at her health.

The cat next to Su Mo was somewhat socially anxious, and the chaotic and unfamiliar atmosphere made it increasingly uneasy.

Xuanqing looked at the cat at her feet and said, "I'll watch it for you, you can go."

When Su Mo turned around again, she saw that the orange cat was being held in Xuan Qing's arms and was sleeping peacefully.

She couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Over the weekend, while she was working overtime at the small clinic, she received a text message from Xuanqing: her cat had been bumped into by him when it opened the door to go outside.

Su Mo vaguely remembered that she had received a call from a patient that morning and left in such a hurry that she had forgotten to lock the door.

Fortunately, someone I knew found it.

Su Mo replied to him with a message: Thank you, I'll treat you to dinner later.

About a minute later, I got a reply: Okay, I'll wait for you.

Fu Ying, who had inadvertently caught a glimpse of him, couldn't help but laugh and say, "Just tell him, there's no time like the present, let's do it tonight!"

"Let's do it another day. It's so late, he's probably already eaten. I'm going back to pick up the cat, remember to lock the door later!"

Fu Ying turned to Xiao Jiu and whispered, "This time it's really different, Su Mo is in danger!"

Xiao Jiu chuckled and said, "Haven't you always hoped she'd find a boyfriend? Isn't this a good thing?"

Fu Ying raised an eyebrow. She had actually wanted to introduce Su Mo to a few younger men, but... never mind, who you meet and what kind of chemistry you have seems to be predetermined by fate.

When Su Mo came out of the elevator, she saw Xuan Qing standing at the door with his cat, waiting for her.

She reached out and took the cat leash, thanking him politely: "It's a bit late today, I'll treat you to dinner another day."

He looked at her, his eyes gentle: "Okay."

Just as Su Mo opened the door to go in, the cat at her feet suddenly turned around and walked towards the person at the door.

"Meow~"

The orange cat squatted at Xuan Qing's feet, tilting its head back and looking at him with its cat eyes, as if asking: "Human, won't you come in and sit down?"

Su Mo tugged at it, the cat swayed, and then walked over and squatted down again.

The person outside asked in a low voice, "Would it be convenient for you to come in and sit down?"

"Oh, okay! Please come in."

Xuanqing bent down, picked up the cat at her feet, and stepped inside.

This neighborhood consists of large, single-level apartments. Her home wasn't very big, but it was clean and tidy, with many potted plants and greenery at a glance.

After sitting down on the sofa, his gaze fell on the photo frame on the coffee table.

It must have been taken a few years ago. The two people in the photo look a bit young, but her beauty was already quite striking at that time, like a crabapple bud about to bloom in spring, delicate and bright.

He knew the people around her.

Yes, he knows him.

In the photo frame, the boy's gaze wasn't on the camera at all; he was stubbornly staring at her profile. The sunlight that day was beautiful, and she must have been beautiful in his eyes too.
