You're dumping me, huh? Fine, then I'll just pick up the school beauty and make her my wif

Jiang Che nodded, released Su Qinghe's small hand, and then pushed the hospital bed toward the VIP ward with the nurse.

He didn't say a word the whole way, his gaze never leaving Su Qinghe's face.

Even though the person was right in front of him and the surgery was successful, he still dared not relax for a moment.

We arrived at the ward.

Several nurses worked together to move Su Qinghe from the mobile hospital bed to the bed in the room.

Their movements were swift and steady, clearly indicating they were used to it.

After settling Su Qinghe in, the nurses connected her to the electrocardiogram monitor and set up her IV drip.

After completing all the procedures, they packed up their things and left, leaving the space to the family members.

The room became much quieter, with the monitor emitting a rhythmic "tick-tock" sound.

Jiang Che pulled up a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed, reaching out to hold Su Qinghe's hand that was outside the blanket.

My little hands are cold.

He held her hands in his own palms, warming them with his own body heat.

Bai Yuning stood at the foot of the bed for a while, and seeing that nothing much had happened, she raised her hand to check the time.

"Alright, everyone's out safe and sound, I should head out now."

She stretched and loosened her stiff neck. "I have to go make my rounds in the inpatient ward of our department."

Jiang Che then remembered that his cousin was still here with him.

He turned around and smiled apologetically, "Thanks, sis. I'm sorry to have troubled you today. I'll treat you to a meal another day."

"You said it yourself, I want to have a good meal, it has to be at least the level of Yunqi Jinglu."

Bai Yuning didn't hold back either, taking advantage of the situation.

"No problem, order whatever you like." Jiang Che agreed readily.

As long as Su Qinghe's eyesight improves, he'd be happy to buy Yunqi Jinglu, let alone just a meal.

"Then it's settled."

Bai Yuning nodded in satisfaction, then glanced at Su Qinghe, who was still unconscious, and whispered, "Call the doctor immediately if anything happens, or you can call me."

"You can stay here and keep watch over the bed tonight. Don't overwork yourself. You've been running around all day, so get some rest."

This VIP ward is comparable to a hotel in terms of facilities. In addition to the hospital bed, there is also a companion bed next to it. The conditions are not bad at all.

"Okay, I understand. You can go ahead and get busy." Jiang Che waved to her.

Bai Yuning didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the ward, gently closing the door behind her.

With a soft "click," only Jiang Che and Su Qinghe remained in the room.

The sky outside the window had completely darkened.

Jiang Che didn't turn on the main light because, although Su Qinghe's eyes were covered with gauze, he was still worried that the main light would irritate her eyes, so he only turned on a dim bedside lamp.

The soft light shone on Su Qinghe's face, giving her features a faint golden edge.

As he looked at it, Jiang Che couldn't help but reach out his hand.

First, he pinched her cheek, then his fingers gently traced her face, finally stopping at the thick gauze over her eyes.

If they wait until noon tomorrow, these beautiful eyes will be able to see the world again.

After spending some time with Su Qinghe, Jiang Che got up and prepared to go downstairs to buy her some food in advance.

He was quite hungry; he had been busy since morning and hadn't even had time to drink water, let alone eat.

I didn't feel hungry before because I was nervous, but now that I've calmed down, the feeling of hunger is very strong.

Jiang Che stood up and tiptoed to the door.

Before leaving, he looked back one last time to make sure the readings on the monitor were normal before opening the door and going out.

The corridor was quiet.

Jiang Che went to the nurses' station first.

The nurse on duty was writing something with her head down when she heard the noise and looked up. "Oh, it's you. What's wrong?"

The nurse recognized Jiang Che; after all, he was staying in a VIP ward, was a relative of Dr. Bai, and was handsome.

"I want to buy some food for my girlfriend. She just had surgery. Are there any dietary restrictions for her?" Jiang Che asked, leaning forward slightly with his arm resting on the table.

The nurse thought for a moment, put down her pen, and said, "She just had surgery, so it's best for her to eat liquid food, something light, like millet porridge or soft noodles."

"Avoid spicy and stimulating foods, and also avoid seafood and other foods that may trigger allergies or other adverse reactions."

Jiang Che nodded, made a note of it, and said, "Thanks."

He turned and walked towards the elevator.

The hospital cafeteria is on the first floor, and it was lunchtime, so it was quite crowded.

Jiang Che quickly entered the cafeteria, and while queuing, he pondered Su Qinghe's matter in his mind.

It was his turn.

"A bowl of millet porridge, cooked until very soft."

The cafeteria lady was quick and efficient, serving a full spoonful in one go.

"Another serving of braised pork ribs, and another serving of beef brisket with potatoes."

He ate it himself.

After getting his food, Jiang Che was about to swipe his card when he suddenly paused.

He remembered that Bai Yuning probably hadn't eaten either, considering she had stayed by his side for so long from the afternoon until just now.

And now he's making rounds in the inpatient ward, so he definitely doesn't have time to come down and eat.

"Add another serving of sweet and sour pork, another serving of stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and two boxes of rice."

Jiang Che added another sentence.

The auntie worked quickly, packed the food, and handed it out.

Jiang Che carried several heavy bags and took the elevator back to his ward.

He pushed open the door and walked into the room, eagerly approaching the bedside, but Su Qinghe still hadn't woken up.

So Jiang Che took out the millet porridge separately, put it in the insulated bag he brought from home that morning, and placed it on the bedside table.

When this girl wakes up, she can have something hot to eat.

As for his own portion, he had no appetite at the moment, so he put it in the insulated bag.

Let's deliver food to Bai Yuning first.

Jiang Che picked up the other boxed lunch, then turned and left.

Bai Yuning is an endocrinologist. Jiang Che glanced at the floor index and found that the endocrinology department was on the ninth floor of the inpatient building, just a few floors below the VIP ward floor.

The elevator is crowded right now, so it stops on every floor.

Jiang Che was too lazy to wait, so he pushed open the fire door and went up the stairs.

It's just a matter of a few floors and a few steps.

Upon reaching the ninth floor and opening the stairwell door, a cacophony of noise greeted me.

It's not as quiet as the VIP ward. There are many extra beds in the corridor, and family members and patients come and go.

Jiang Che frowned and stepped aside to avoid an old man carrying a basin of water.

He took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Bai Yuning.

[Sis, which room are you in? I've bought your food.]

I waited for a while but didn't receive a reply; I guess they were busy.

Jiang Che put his phone back in his pocket, intending to go directly to the doctor's office or the nurses' station to ask.

He walked down the corridor, where the nurses' station was located in the middle.

At this moment, several nurses were gathered together checking the doctor's orders on the computer.

"Excuse me, where is Dr. Bai Yuning?" Jiang Che walked over and knocked on the table to ask.

One of the nurses looked up, saw Jiang Che, and paused for a moment before blushing slightly.

"Dr. Bai, she just finished her rounds and should be writing medical records in her office right now."

"Where is the office?"

"It's the first shop on the left up ahead."

The nurse pointed in a direction.

Thanks.

Jiang Che carried the lunchbox and walked in the direction she pointed. Just as he was about to turn the corner, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure at the door of the ward on the right.

He stopped abruptly, then blinked, thinking he must have misread it.

After taking a closer look and confirming that there was nothing wrong with his eyes, he couldn't help but sigh in relief.

Isn't this the uncle who taught him to run in the park this morning?

What a coincidence?
