At this moment, there were five or six more people in the ward besides Mr. Xie and the nurse. They all looked to be in their early sixties and were probably about the same age as Mr. Xie.
Among this group of people, only a man in a white coat looked younger, but he should be almost fifty years old.
These people had been here for a while. After exchanging pleasantries, Sun Jinrong, the man in the white coat, seemed to be looking towards the door casually, wondering, "We've been here for almost twenty minutes, but why do we only see the nurse? Where are your children, sir? Why aren't they here?"
Mr. Xie glanced at him, hummed in his heart, and said lightly: "Go buy lunch."
Sun Jinrong took out his phone and checked the time, then immediately frowned: "It's already twelve o'clock, sir, you haven't eaten yet?"
I couldn't help but scold him: "Those young people in your family are really something. You are a patient who just had surgery. No one can let you starve!"
"No, I'll have someone buy it and send it over."
As he spoke, he took out his phone and flipped through his contacts while saying, "I remember there's a vegetarian restaurant not far away, so let's book that one."
"The vegetarian food there is delicious. Sir, you just had surgery and it's not suitable for you to eat anything too greasy. This is perfect."
The old men behind him couldn't help but look at him twice. One of them asked in surprise, "Vegetarian restaurant? Are you talking about the one in Di'anmen?"
"That one."
The man waved his hand and said, "Then don't waste your time. I've been to the vegetarian restaurant a few times, and they only accept reservations, and they only have a limited supply per day. It's already midnight, how can I buy anything there?"
Sun Jinrong smiled slightly without explaining, but his hands continued to look for contacts.
The man frowned upon seeing this, and was about to say something when the sound of clapping suddenly rang out. Another old man with a goatee said with a look of sudden enlightenment, "I remember now. The owner of the vegetarian restaurant fell seriously ill and seemed to have gone to your Jiuhe Hospital. Do you know the owner?"
Sun Jinrong casually said, "I happened to be the attending physician at the time, and Mr. Zhang was so polite that he insisted on giving me a VIP card for the vegetarian restaurant. I couldn't refuse, so I accepted it. But now it comes in handy."
He said with a smile: "Finally found it, I'll ask them to send food over quickly."
But he was interrupted by Mr. Xie, who had been looking at him coldly: "Don't bother, my daughter will be here soon."
Sun Jinrong immediately said, "It's not a bother, it's not a bother. Why are you being so polite to me, sir? We almost became master and disciple back then. It's just a meal, and it was delivered. What's the trouble with that?"
"Don't be so polite to me."
Mr. Xie wanted to roll his eyes.
Is he being polite to him? Doesn't he just want to ignore him?!
To someone who didn't understand what he was saying, Mr. Xie didn't even bother to put on a show and said directly, "Back then, when you wanted to become my disciple, I rejected you outright. How could you say we almost became master and disciple?"
"You're an intermediate-level physician at Jiuhe Hospital, deputy director, right? You're quite impressive, and you've shown off enough. If you have nothing else to do, please leave now. My daughter will be here soon, and I don't have time to entertain you."
Sun Jinrong froze in his tracks, his expression darkening rapidly. He smiled again the next moment, saying, "I misremembered it, but even if we weren't destined to be master and disciple, you've always been an elder I deeply respect. Since you're ill, it's only natural for me to come visit you."
"By the way, your daughter's name is Xie Xihe, right? I know her. She's a big star, very beautiful. There are several girls in our department who like her."
"Yesterday I saw them reading her news. I was passing by and caught a glimpse of it. What was the article about..." Sun Jinrong pretended to think, then suddenly slammed his palm and said, "The title of the article was 'Skipping the competition midway, pissing off his father to death, a certain trainee surnamed X adds new material!'"
He moved closer to Old Man Xie and said with a smile, "X, Xie, you must be talking about your daughter, right?"
Since these people entered the ward, Mr. Xie's face became ugly for the first time.
He stared at Sun Jinrong closely with a fierce look.
Sun Jinrong wasn't afraid at all. Instead, his smile deepened. He said, "I haven't seen a famous star in person yet. I wonder if she's really as beautiful as I see on TV. This is a rare opportunity, so I must take a good look."
Mr. Xie's face was dark, and under the impact of anger, he felt his vision getting darker.
At this moment, there was a slight sound of a door opening, followed by the girl's low cry: "Dad."
The girl's voice was soft and hoarse, with some of her usual casualness, but it seemed to have magical power, which extinguished Mr. Xie's anger in an instant.
He glanced sideways.
Xie Xihe pushed the door open and walked in nonchalantly. He casually placed the food box in his hand on the bedside table and said, "It's a bit far. It took a while. Are you hungry?"
As he spoke, he opened the lunch box and took out the food slowly.
Mr. Xie opened his mouth: "Xiao Xi..."
Xie Xihe raised the back of the bed and interrupted, "Eat first."
Old Master Xie shut up instantly, took the spoon handed to him by Xie Xihe obediently, scooped a spoonful of porridge and started eating.
Xie Xihe stared at him and took two bites. When he was satisfied, he looked back.
Looking in the direction of Sun Jinrong: "Now I see it, does it look good?"
Sun Jinrong had been stunned since Xie Xihe appeared. Now he looked directly into the girl's peach blossom eyes that seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and then glanced at her beautiful little face, and couldn't help being stunned.
Isn't it said that photos of celebrities look so good because of filters? Why is Xie Xihe even more beautiful than in the photos?!
But... what's the use of being beautiful? You'll still accomplish nothing and just be an embarrassment!
Sun Jinrong quickly realized what was happening, smiled and nodded, saying, "Of course it's nice to be a big star, but don't blame me for being nosy. You young people, even if you're busy with work, you should also pay more attention to your family. Your father is so old and he's had such a major operation, how could you not give him dinner so late?"
Xie Xihe looked at him once, then looked at him again. How should I describe that look? It was quite strange.
Sun Jinrong felt uncomfortable being stared at by her and couldn't help asking, "What do you mean?"
Xie Xihe smiled nonchalantly: "Nothing interesting, I just find it strange. Aren't you a mid-level physician at Jiuhe Hospital? How could you ask such a low-level question?"
What does this have to do with whether he is a mid-level physician at Jiuhe Hospital?
Sun Jinrong subconsciously wanted to retort, but just as the words were about to come out of his mouth, he suddenly reacted.
His face turned red in an instant.
