Qiao Muting only saw Qian Lai.

"You really came?"

"I told you I'd come see you in two days, didn't I?" Qian Lai held up the lunchbox in her hand. "I brought you some steamed buns and porridge, have a taste?"

"Great, I haven't had breakfast yet." Qiao Muting couldn't suppress his smile, almost forgetting that he still had an injury on his back.

He reached out to take the things from Qian Lai's hands, which strained his back injury, causing his brows to furrow suddenly.

"Did you aggravate your wound again?" Qian Lai's concern was like a magic pill poured into his heart and lungs. He couldn't feel the pain anymore.

"Were you just about to have your dressing changed? I came at the wrong time. Or perhaps..."

"No, no, the timing is just right. Any later and we'd have to go do rounds."

Qiao Muting led Qian Lai toward his office, completely unaware that there was someone standing behind her.

Huang Jingyi quietly hid her thermos behind her back. Coincidentally, she had also brought steamed buns and porridge today.

What happened to him just now?

Every time I get a little closer to him, he reacts extremely and pulls back.

But it was different with this woman. He took the initiative to step forward and even reached out to take the things from her hands.

Huang Jingyi saw all of this, her face remained calm, but her heart was in turmoil.

Fang Wenjie came out of the treatment room a step later than Qiao Muting and immediately saw Huang Jingyi standing frozen in the corridor.

"Oh? Comrade Huang, are you looking for Mu Ting?"

Qian Lai and Qiao Muting then turned around.

"Oh, right, I also have to thank this woman; she's the one who brought me here."

Huang Jingyi smiled slightly at her, stepped forward, extended her hand, and greeted her in a friendly manner: "Hello, my name is Huang Jingyi. I work in the hospital's administrative department."

Qian Lai also politely shook hands with the other party.

Just then, a group of interns ran up from downstairs, teasing and joking, "Hey! What delicious treat did Comrade Huang bring for our Deputy Director Qiao today?"
